“SpaceX launched what has been a top secret mission just before dusk on Sunday, not releasing the contents of its payload and changing its original mission name. The Falcon 9 rocket lifted off from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center at 5:28 EST. SpaceX called the mission ‘TD7,’ even though regulatory filings and U.S. government agency and regulatory findings, including the Space Force and the Federal Aviation Administration, call the payload ‘Optus-X.’ During live coverage of the launch, a SpaceX commentator said the payload was a communications satellite.” (11/18/24)
