Original: 3 for 3! Falcon Heavy rocket launches secret US spy mission to complete SpaceX tripleheader (video)
SpaceX completed a rare triple launch day as its Falcon Heavy rocket lifted off with a classified US military spy mission, marking the third successful launch in the tripleheader. The Falcon Heavy, one of the world's most powerful operational rockets, rarely flies classified national security payloads, and the secretive nature of the mission has drawn attention alongside the company's rapid launch cadence.
