SpaceX launched a second pair of WorldView Legion imaging satellites for Maxar Thursday. A Falcon 9 lifted off at 9:00 am EDT (1300 GMT) and placed the two satellites into low Earth orbit. The satellites will operate in mid-inclination orbits, complementing those in sun-synchronous orbits for improved coverage between 45 degrees north and south latitudes.
