Payloads:: Viasat-3 Americas satellite, Astranis's first MicroGEO satellite and Gravity Space’s GS-1 satellite.
According to Space.com. the Falcon Heavy's three first-stage boosters are designed to be reusable. However, none of the boosters will be recovered on today's mission, presumably because they won't have enough fuel left over to maneuver themselves safely back to Earth for a vertical touchdown.
