Falcon 9 launched ANASIS-II, South Korea's first dedicated military communications satellite, into geostationary transfer orbit from Cape Canaveral. Booster B1058, which had flown the Demo-2 astronaut mission, was reused after just 51 days, a turnaround record, and both fairing halves were caught for the first time.
