2012-08-01Iridium453.1*7~64.72CommercialNew/ReusedYes*Iridium in mid-2010 signed a $492 million contract with SpaceX to launch the Iridium Next satellites nine at a time aboard eight Falcon 9 rockets between early 2015 and 2017. The restructured contract, which SpaceX and Iridium concluded Aug. 1, 2012, calls for seven Falcon 9 rockets, each carrying 10 Iridium Next satellites. Iridium said it is saving $39 million by ordering seven rockets instead of eight. The new total value is $453.1 million: https://www.satellitetoday.com/telecom/2014/08/01/iridium-sees-major-m2m-growth-keeps-pace-with-iridium-next/
