On the 1st February 2018, it’s the second attempt to launching  SpaceX Falcon nine non reusable… in which on the 31ST January’s first launch was due to the second stage sensor issue in which that got replaced.. launching was from CapeCanaveral Air Force base SLC-40 Space launch Complex 40…. In which this is a non-traditional Space X launch in which the falcon nine first stage would not be landing on landing zone one in which is adjacently ten Kilometers away nor it’ll land on off shore drone ship.. Also after three minutes after the launch  that there are reports that the falcon nine first stage splashed down intact off shore in which citing its durability of a non-recovery at sea ..as you can see during the launch pad that the first stage wasn’t repainted means it was as a non recoverable even though it splashed landed intacted..

 Second Launch Attempt from SLC 40 from a twenty four hour launching reset cycle on a very clear wintery Florida afternoon on 1625 hours Eastern Standard Time, with a two hour window that closed on 1847 hours… reusing a previous first Stage Falcon Nine rocket that was previously used on NROL -76  that launched from NASA-KSC’s iconic Launch complex 39A that launched the mightily Saturn five also the Space Shuttle-STS-Space Transportation System…..

SpaceX Falcon nine non reusable launched on a second attempt on for GOVSAT-1

The payload in question is the GovSat1 manufactured by Orbital ATK , operated by SES a Leading satellite operator.. GOVSAT 1 in which services the provisionment of Government of Luxembourg in which is provisionments roles provides the security needs addressing governmental and institutional requirements… Of securing communications and data communications in tactical theaters operations for Maritime mission for Humanitarian assistances also provides for the mobility enablement of Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance- ISR…  Its current Geo-Stationary orbit positioned at 21.5 Degrees with an operating distance of 36,000 Kilometers above the equator.. it broadcasting dedicated communications  coverage within Europe, Middle East, Africa also Atlantic and the Indian ocean..

One of the sequences of launches that follow during the eve of SpaceX KoreanSat5A in which was launched on a very clear east coast afternoon from the iconic NASA-KSC Launch Complex 39A on the 30th October 2017, Korean Television Communications Satellite.. On the following Halloween 31st October 2017 day  it’s the Orbital ATK’s Minotaur C rocket that was launched from the other side from the Californian West Coast from Vandenberg Air force Base from Space Launch Complex -SLC-576E weather wise it met the launch criteria.. in which it Launched 1437 Hours Pacific time..

From the timely launch it, accent into deployment twelve minutes after the launch deploying from its removed payload flaring, deploying six SkySat Spacecraft into one by one into Targeting Sun Synchronous orbit 500 Kilometers above Earth…  Follow on multiple piggy backing payloads is the final of deployment of four Dove Satellite Spacecraft’s into the same..

The sequences of deployments for home-grown made Californian manufactured SkySat also Dove Spacecraft operate in combinations with each other as they provide the provisionment of remote sensing of Data and Telecommunications towards non and governmental organisations business… in which this case the client was for Planet labs Inc. whom provides extremely high ultra-resolution  rich orbital imagery of Earth Terrain from orbit..

On that California west coast morning, from Space X Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Air Force Base… is the Launch of a piggy back ride of ten Thales Alenia Space   Iridium 3 – Iridium Next Satellites in which is constructed by Orbital ATK.. In which was launched on that Californian Monday of 9th October 2017 on 0531 hours Los Angeles Time- Pacific Date Time…

As per usual on some payload is singular, but currently trends with the increase in technologies on satellite technologies making them smaller, compact…? Meaning on carrier launch providers can launch two or more, this case its call piggy packing on a singular launch vehicle …. In this case the Iridium 3- Next satellites are design to have that clustering payload…  in which the clustering payloads are launched into a LEO-Low Earth Orbit for more maximized communications coverage with overlapping communications coverage…  in sequences from satellite one to ten..

Within ten minutes least from the launch is the landing of the first stage of reusable  staging carrier rocket on an off shore drone ship “ Just Read The Instructions”  that was station in the Pacific Ocean.

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 ….
