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………

As this early morning launch on 19th February 2016, on that second SpaceX Falcon Nine CRS-10 Commercial Resupply Service towards the ISS- International Space Station, that second attempt from that Historical Launch Pad from Cape Canaveral, on Launch Complex LC- 39A, as that launch second attempt went without any hitch, it launched smoothly as, ten minutes into the flight, on a cloudy morning.. Then separated from the secondary Dragon Resupply module…  the landing of the Falcon Nine Reusable was smooth as the main webcast shows it’s manoeuvring autonomously with ease through the various heavy layered clouds…  to Space X Landing Zone on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station…

Boeing’s newest Aircraft in this year’s collection of 2016 is this very cute, highly maneuverable fighter, or hopefully it becomes a civilian aircraft, its name it’s The T-X, it’s the next generation pilot trainer, in which it’s collaboration in between Boeing and Saab…. As this is next replacement of the aging T-38’s in which service the training of the United States Air force also as of NASA’s Astronauts when learning, training of flying the Space Shuttle- STS Space Transportation System Program, also it’s the current fleet of guide aircraft to assist the Space Shuttle inwards to land at Kennedy Space Center, also at Edwards Air force Base.. as the replacement of the T-38’s is intended for 2024 year..

The Collaboration T-X trainer fighter aircraft is inspired by a combination of various aircraft Orthough having that combination inspired by different aircraft gives the pilots more options in flying in various next generations single engine resembling the profile of the F-35, also the wings in-between of an F-16 Fighting Falcon… in which has twin setting arrangement as most standard aircraft with Stadium seating so it gives the pilots more encompassing views on what’s around also within the advance  Cockpit with the latest offering tools in technologies to be taught in as ever changing mission that they may have to adapt towards to the 21st century.. As to the Aircraft of the Boeing T-X of being maintained, at a long term an affordable operational, maintenance friendly support..

As the build up to the “NASA’s Space Launch Systems” in preparations in returning back to the moon Luna, then towards the rusty orange Planet Mars, with ongoing efforts in establishing an outpost on research, exploration, commercial, also tourism on those two… as the First Test flight of the Constellation Program – SLS is underway for the for the launch calendar year 2018, no later than November launch window… on a re-built-recondition Launch complex –LC 39B at Kennedy Space Center in Florida that was once launched by the STS- Space Transportation Systems, The Space Shuttle program- the Work Truck of NASA.. With the Orion command module on-board to test the full stack of its systems before a manned test flight to see if any other modifications, tweaking, and turning are required to rebuild another variant of the original SLS rocket..

In this see that preparations of a forty meter long SLS liquid hydrogen fuel tank constructed with a new tooling systems at Vehicle Assembly Center at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans…. In where this major component is of the first stage in which it takes up least two thirds of sixty five meter first stage among its other component in which stores the Liquid Oxygen in where the two it feeds the powerful four RS-25 engines that was once used on the Tri-cluster Space Shuttle Main Engines, now heavily modified for the SLS program, also with a pair five segmentation SRB’s Solid Rocket Boosters on each sides.. Using the same design heritage from the STS-Space Shuttle program..

Apart from the forty meter Liquid Hydrogen tank is the testing for flight qualification to see whether to see if it sustains to any form of extreme stresses that may be impose on it to see if any other modifications learning experiences  that are learn from that testing at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama…

As more of the crew space transport service providers, is set to take on the crew commercially to the International Space Station-ISS….. As Commercial providers “SpaceX-Dragon nine” “Boeing-Starliner” also “Amazon-Blue Origin-New Shepard” is set to provide that partnership, in which new launching facilities platforms are constructed… One historical component   is the Catwalk, is where the final departure room of the Astronauts, Cosmonauts, Tychonauts into before preparation into the Spacecraft before launch as during the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, STS-Space Transportation Systems-Space Shuttle, Then onwards to the SLS-Space Launch Systems- Constellation program..

In this Boeing, is set to build their commercial launch complex on NASA’s Cape Canaveral’s (Space Launch Complex)  SLC-41  that’s built from scratch to as it began testing the white room one week before its final installation.. In which is built for the Atlas five rockets with the Starliner as the Command Module, on which the white room/ Catwalk is finally installed on Monday, 15th August 2016…. So what were you  doing this morning at 0730 EDT… ?
