While we're waiting for the sat deploy, I went ahead and updated the OP. Bangabandhu-1 isn't all that notable in terms of the payload, but it'll be the first launch of the "Block 5" version of the rocket. In theory, the booster will be capable of being reused up to 10 times without refurbishment. I'll be curious to see (assuming it works) if they consider giving the boosters names in the future since we'll see a single booster putting in a lot of work.
