SpaceX will launch 70 satellites at once.

Some can see ‘dark vessels.’ The next rocket mission for SpaceX, called SSO-A, will launch 71 small satellites into orbit at once.

Three satellites belong to HawkEye 360, a startup that aims to “see” radio-wave emissions all over Earth.

HawkEye 360’s software will identify each unique radio signal and use it to track “dark vessels” that may be trying to hide illegal activities.

The company hopes its system will help curb $3 trillion worth of illegal fishing, smuggling, drug trafficking, and piracy each year.
