On 30th March 2017, Space X just recently launched a Communications Satellite SES-10, an Airbus Defense and Space built on the design framework of the Eurostar 3000…. As it was launching on that New York time evening of 1827 EDT From that Iconic NASA-Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39A that launch the Lunar Mission to the Moon, the Saturn V Rocket also modified into the STS- Space Transportation Systems- The Space Shuttle in which now it’s being tailored for a different dress style cut, that Dress Style cut is to Launch the SpaceX Falcon heavies, ultra Heavy, to the Interplanetary Transport System that will lead onwardly to the Planet Mars..

As part of the Design process, of reusability of various key booster rocket carrier launcher, in which SpaceX, Amazon-Blue Origin have successfully cat walked with wearing stilettos on landing a reusable carrier rocket booster on either on a static or dynamic landing platform, this case it’s a Dynamic Drone ship “Of Course I Still Love You” in which two minutes and forty one seconds after the seconds into the flight the first stage and secondary stages separates then one major momenta events of two is landing on an off shore Atlantic drone ship landing from six minutes and twenty seconds for an re-entry burn then landing of the Falcon Nine reusable at its final timing at eight minutes and thirty two seconds.. in which it’ll be received by retrieval team to collect, reprocess to be used for other launches, in which this one is reprocess transported back  for to be displayed as a museum artifact in Florida SpaceX branch…

least than twenty hours that Space X is launch from that historically Iconic launch pad Launch NASA KSC Complex 39A –LC39A that’s been used historically partaken in the launch of the Saturn V Apollo Lunar Program,  STS- Space Transportation Systems known as the Space Shuttle program.. now it’s been currently undergoing major modifications to launch the next generation of rocket vehicles that is Known as the Falcon Nine Heavy also it’s younger taller sister the Falcon X heavy, ultra Heavy to the Interplanetary Transportation systems  that will lead towards the planet Mars..

On the Launch Complex 39A, is the Falcon nine reusable, it’s recently launch was an reused expendable one due to the mission requirements parameters of the launch.. in this case Space X,  for the launch of SES-10 Communications Satellite  from NASA KSC which have a two and half window… launching in within least twenty hours, on 30th March 2017 with the window evening launch of 1827 Hours EDT or 2227 hours UTC… in which the SES-10 will be deployed after in thirty two minutes from the time of the launch..  however there’s a second window just in case sets on 1st April 2017- Saturday  at 1827 hours EDT – 2227 Hours UTC..

This launch is a milestone, due to the nature of the iconic launch complex LC-39A, in which a tradition once more is reacted in reusing a reusable Falcon nine rocket booster carrier… In which it’ll land on a drone ship named “Of Course I Still Love You” readily station off shore at the Atlantic Ocean…  given that you wanted to watch the live technical feed it’s located here..

The payload itself, SES-10, is a commercial communication satellite, in which its High quality communications provisions will service the Latin American region in collaborations with the Andean Community to use the Simon Bolivar 2 satellite network.. as it’s thirty two minutes into been deployed it’ll be position on an Geo-Stationary position at 67 Degrees west… the Manufacturer is Airbus Defense and Space  based on the Eurostar 3000 platform in which its solar power panels will provide the power the communications equipment also it’s Xeon ion electric hybrid  propulsion systems also acting as retro maneuverings controls….

On Thursday 16th March 2017  Thursday New York early Morning time, least seven hours.  “SpaceX”  will attempt to second time launch EchoStar twenty three a communications Satellite from that iconic launch pad – Launch Complex 39A that launched the Saturn V-Apollo programme also the recent of its launch programme is the STS-Space Transportation Systems – Space Shuttle.. in which currently the Launch Complex 39A at NASA – Kennedy Space Center, still have the equipment currently still to launch the STS –Space Shuttle but currently undergoing serve modifications to accommodate the new SpaceX heavy and ultra-heavy falcons reusable rocket… this launch however will not attempt to land the Falcon Nine as traditionally due to the nature of the mission of the payload requirements.. As the first attempted launch was on the 14th March 2017, the launch was delayed due to weathering considerations that weren’t unfavorable for the required launch criteria, in which extremely high wind was not on that agenda of the criteria as of that there weren’t any technical issues prior they’ve been iron out in the statics test firing that occurred days prior.. .

 The Launch of the” EchoStar twenty three” a communications Satellite manufactured by Space systems- Loral is designated to as broadcasting service provider satellite placed in high altitude to provide broadcasting services to Brazil in Geo-stationary orbit….    The launch from that Iconic Launch Complex 39A… from the historic pad, its launch window is at 0135 hours morning Eastern Daylight Time- 0534 morning UTC… as the launch process commerce’s into the flight it will deploy 34 minutes after the lift off………

On 14th March 2017 “SpaceX” in least than eight hours will launch EchoStar twenty three a communications Satellite from that iconic launch pad – Launch Complex 39A that launched the Saturn V-Apollo programme also the recent of its launch programme is the STS-Space Transportation Systems – Space Shuttle.. in which currently the Launch Complex 39A at NASA – National Aeronautics Space administration- Kennedy Space Center, still have the equipment currently still to launch the STS –Space Shuttle but currently undergoing serve modifications to accommodate the new SpaceX heavy and ultra-heavy falcons reusable rocket… this launch however will not attempt to land the Falcon Nine as traditionally due to the nature of the mission of the payload requirements.. ..

#ULA UNITED LAUNCH ALLIANCE- #LOCKHEEDMARTIN #ATLASV| #SBIRS #GEO3 ….. Essentials important Notification of that upcoming warning… mission profile what’s to come…

On 19th January 2017 moments soon, on a “ULA- Untied Launch Alliance” bound to be launched from Space Launch Complex SLC- 41 Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. is the United States Air force of their Next Generation of Early Warning systems.. That Next Generation of Early Warning system is the Space-Based Infrared Systems (SBIRS) GEO-3…… The Launch window opening for the launch is from 19.46 hours Eastern Standard Time, in regarding to that the live broadcast commences at the broadcasting time at 19.26 hours Eastern Standard Time…

The carrier rocket for the Lockheed Martin SBIRS-GEO 3 is an Atlas V Rocket in the 401 Configuration…. In which consisting one main Atlas V rocket, with a secondary stage Centaur Rocket, it’s interesting that there’s no additional Solid Rocket Boosters- SRB’S…. unlikely that this payload is very much lighter than the other previous launches..

The Payload itself, the Space-Based Infrared Systems (SBIRS) GEO-3, is a partaking of several of its sisterly networks of early warning systems satellites… in which one of its many mission assignments specifications is to provide the highest degrees of gathering reconnaissance information on missile warnings, missile defence, technical intelligence also Battle Awareness readiness…   its systems co exist dependence system, provides that critical readiness information too its control station at Buckley Air forces base, in Colorado…. As one of the systems, its Infrared it’s scans the surface of the planet, scans for unusual heat anomalies of any detected launches from the ground up in progress… Its systems are built to be durable to nuclear shielding of the electronics, also the design of the SBIRS design is quite modular in which there’s more room for evolving with additional components also Its communications systems is design to operate in the toughest conditions..  one thing it can alter its mission parameters of intelligence gather with its small built in Thrusters therefore to accomplish various task…. The SBIRS as a payload it’s adaptable universal towards various carrier rockets the Atlas, Deltas, also the Space X Falcon…  All in all hope that weather is favourable on that Launch date.. as latterly will be adjoined with its sisters GEO-five and six..
