From NASA’s KSC iconic Launch Complex 39A- LC 39A, that launched the Iconic Saturn five rockets to the moon then translated into launching STS- Space Transportation System- Space Shuttle the work truck of NASA…. SpaceX CRS10 Launching from on a two hour window  on a very brilliant sunrise Florida  morning 11th October 2017, launching from a time  from 0653 Eastern Date Time Morning..  This morning launch is the traditional in which the Falcon nine is reused for this morning launch, in which is designated to resupply the ISS International Space Station on previous mission on its tenth flight..  In which as to say this is a traditional launch in which will be landing in a Drone Ship off shore in the Atlantic Ocean “Of Course I Still Love You?”

The two payloads deployed thirty six minutes into from lift off..  in question that are in piggy backing from one carrier launch rocket is from the Falcon nine reusable. In which the first is the EchoStar 105 is design wise to communications coverage of the United States of America, Gulf of Mexico, also the Caribbean…. With that range is provisionment in providing communications of sorts on communications enterprises, media, broadcasters, also provision towards on a governmental level..  its communications platform is hybrid in which it operates in between Ku and C Band….

SES-11 is also a communications satellite in which it communication provisionment is to provide video also HD- high definition also its UHD- Ultra High communication Channels, broadcasting coverage towards the America, Hawaii, Mexico, Caribbean

Under construction also testing currently at the moment in a car – Aircraft manufacturing type line is the construction of eighty one Iridium Next Satellites in Orbital ATK‘s Gilbert Arizona Satellite Manufacturing facility… As Orbital ATK is under contract from Thales Alenia Space to manufacture eighty one satellites to replacing its aging Constellation Satellites in which it was launched from a series of SpaceX falcon nines reusable carrier rocket booster that launched from its Vandenberg air force base also another location from the Iconic NASA’s launch complex 39A, in which launched the Saturn five Apollo mission to the moon, then converted to the STS-Space Transportation System-Space Shuttle mission..

Iridium Next Constellation is built from very ground up like assembly of building from a ground up of an aircraft or a car… in which the satellites are designed for LEO- Low Earth Orbit in with back up, also spare parts…. As with the LEO- Low Earth Orbit of 780 Kilometers above earth to allow shorter transmission paths also with given stronger signal gains of a LEO with a lower Latency, shorter registration time than having a GEO- Geo Stationary Orbit..  With the numerous clusters of the Iridium Next network in LEO, it’ll will minimized the empty spots therefore increasing the area coverage of continuing communications with overlapping communication coverage spots to minimizes dropped connections and various types of communications….  As the network is in LEO travelling in orbit at 27360 Km/hour it cover more communications requirements in each orbit takes 100 minutes ….

The Next launch of the IridiumNext cluster of ten satellites per launch is targeted for Ninth October 2017 with SpaceX Falcon Nine at Vandenberg Air Force Base (VAFB) in California at 0537 Pacific Date time Californian morning..

Currently in Charlotte York’s Sex in the City, in New York there’s an interesting exhibit that’s currently running from 10th May to 3rd December 2017 at the USS Intrepid Museum, in which housing the Iconic test bed NASA’s Space Shuttle OV 101- Orbital Vehicle- Enterprise…….  In which was named after Star Trek’s Constitution Class Starship USS Enterprise…

Within the Intrepid Sea, Air, & Space Museum, that is currently underway is the “Drones- is the Sky the limit?” in which exhibiting showcasing an intensive exhibits of the nostalgic artifacts of model aircraft with historical rare footage in different various media of displaying  unmanned flying machines towards its evolutionary innovative development in between from  amateurs to start-ups in such as the number one leading Drone marker start-up, that was developed, manufactured and Made in China, start up in one of many China’s Mega startups Industrial technologies Regional Cities in Shenzhen, like its sister city in Already Tomorrow in Hong Kong.. is DJI  in which they also be showcasing there products on how in inspiring new generation, also the previous aswell to innovating engineered and creative, start-ups,  to take the next UAV technologies to the next exponential level. In application usage agriculture, public safety, science applications, in many different levels layers of arts in film making, photography..

As part of the exhibit, DJI, there’s an educational component in teaching young children from inner city schools of teaching the physics, science of flight, also the lecturing talks of drones.. In development aerospace designs, also programming and the coding that goes integrated into it the development of drones also in aviation…

As part of exhibition, featuring Lady Gaga- Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta,’s flying dress The Volantis, also Studio XO the prototype that catering for Amazon drone delivery service that’s due to roll out soon for personalised online shopping delivery.. In which this exhibits explores the usage of drone technologies in adaptiveness, from flying cars to space explorations

On a soon to be cloudy night on the that follows from 16th September 2017 Auckland –New Zealand, also on that previous only a half a day ago it was it was the final moments of the Cassini probe that ended its mission re-entry of the Gaseous planet Saturn, as it’s Isotopic Generator runs out of fuel of its final half-life, in which that generator provides the primary power supply to the rest of the probe.. in which its journey started very late last century 1997, the year that Already Tomorrow in Hong Kong was hand back to China in that year in becoming a Special Administrative Region..

As Cassini journey, adventured within twenty years since it journey the long way round with travelling in using gravitational assistance, hopping from planetary bodies, in slingshot way carefully planned with mathematically teamwork timely precession manner..

As I arrived from finishing work, at the observatory, arriving home I geared loaded up NASA-JPL’s eyes on the solar system application.. in which, also I loaded up NASA-JPL’s live stream for the first time in Cassini’s control room in 360 live stream with various layers of commentaries during the live stream in which shown Cassini’s final journey as it still continuous broadcasting live stream also working at the same time of still streaming its collecting data along the way, in which till its final moments…

As I filming Saturn’s live-ish only averagely one hour also averagely one billion kilometres ago footage the night after, seeing the various divisions of Saturn’s rings that inspired the name Cassini whom discovered the rings of Saturn, in which the name was symbolic motion to name the deep space probe.. As you can see the different layers hues brown and metallic greys within the divisions of the rings of rocks and ice in various assortments of sizes… In that major separation between two rings is 4,800 Kilometers wide.

Among that night, the Largest planet Jupiter currently in the bodice of the Constellation Virgo, retired earlier in the night, as to the Saturn in which in between the Constellations of Sagittarius also Scorpio.. In which bringing in spring sort off warmly still cold…

On 9th September 2017 currently NASA – KSC is in total shutdown in which the 45th Space Wing in Patrick Air Force air force base- Cape Canaveral Air force station  has taken over operations of NASA – Kennedy Space Center for Hurricane Irma- level five  in preparing for the for the key evacuation of majority of NASA-KSC’s personal with at 92 personal team from Patrick Air Force Base is on recovery, damage assessment management at Kennedy Space Center with the Level of HURCON 3 to ride out the hurricane till is safe to come back to resume back into normal operations..

Just only hours moments before the shutdown was commencing, it was the launch of Space X – OTV 5 , from that Iconic NASA-KSC – Kennedy Space Center- Launch Complex pad 39A (LC-39A) , in which was launched on a specific timely window  due to the nature of what’s to come with the current situation.. in which that launch was on 7th September 2017 at 0950 Eastern Date Time in the morning with a window closing at 1455 Eastern Date Time in the morning..

The Payload in nature was a United States Air force X-37B- Orbital Test Vehicle –OTV- in which this vehicle was to become the next generation manned vehicle heritage design to replace the Boeing- Rockwell Space Shuttle with its innovative streamlines sleek lines learning from the last experiences..  This is the X-37B- Orbital Test Vehicle fifth launch mission launch in which is mission is unspecified due to the nature….

As the SpaceX launch from the iconic launch complex LC-39A, during the lift off the first stage begins to land traditionally eight minutes after lift-off onto Cape Canaveral Air force station  (LZ-1) landing zone one of the Falcon nine reusable..
