In May, SpaceX marked a new success by sending the first commercial crewed ISS mission into orbit.
The company launched its first satellite into orbit in 2018. The mission's goal was to provide people in areas with low to moderate population densities around the world with affordable high-speed Internet access, including people who had never had Internet access before.
