#SpaceX #FalconNine | #HISPASAT #30W-6 – a non-traditional flight with a stationary “I Still Love you”- Mission Highlights…. also celebrating SpaceX’s 50th Anniversary Launch on brand new first stage Falcon Nine reusable..

On a clear dark Tuesday morning New York time on 6th March 2018, SpaceX was launching from SLC-40-Space Launch Complex 40 from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station is one of the heaviest payloads that SpaceX  is set to launch in which a different modified payload flaring had to be installed for the heavier payload..  Launching was on time as the Launching from SLC-40 was weather wise favourable.. in also Celebrating SpaceX’s 50th Anniversary launching at 12:33 a.m. EST..

The Mission of the launch commentary is provided by John Insprucker, Principal Integrations Engineer of SpaceX… The HISPASAT30W-6 satellite scale wise is about an average city public transportation bus…  HISPASAT30W-6 satellite is previously known as Hipasat IF is operationally design of mission duration of fifteen years.. Building from a SSL 1300 Satellite platform from HIPASAT Group is a Spanish Innovation Satellite provider in provisions of delivering Spanish and Portuguese Content Broadcast, Data communications towards 1250 Televisions and radio channels..  Within the SSL 1300 Satellite platform is with its multiple mission platform equipment onboard, it’s powered with its retractable Solar Arrays 10.5KW with its equipment carrying various 40 Ku Transponders, six Ka Band Beams, and Ten C band Transponders…

The broadcasting range of the HISPASAT30W-6 connects in between the Mediterranean, and the Americas in providing Latin based high end definition Digital media content, also the provisionments of connectivity of mobile, Broadband environments towards the European and Northwest Africa  towards Governments, Corporations, Telecommunications operators in regions of America, Europe and North Africa..

In during this mission is the first stage Falcon Nine reusable core is brand new with a newly paint, in which there was no need to recover the first staging even though it has the landing assets to land onto the off shore drone ship “I Still Love You” is Stationary due to the weather didn’t make the landing recovering launch Criteria in which the weather for recovery was still persistently unfavorable due to the storm weather in the Atlantic therefore it was stationary berth for the remaining for the launch process…  as new Falcon Nine Reusable launched with its powerful nine Merlin Engines..  Then detaching from it secondary stage with its modified payload flaring separated, in the secondary stage powered by a single Merlin Vacuum Engine putting in to the payload into coast orbit towards western Africa into a Geo Stationary Orbit located in 30 degrees west into GTO- Geo Stationary  Orbit….

On 22nd February 2018- Thursday early beautiful clear mid-morning California like that CW series The OC……….. SpaceX  launched Spanish Satellite naming the Airbus Hisdesat’s PAZ, on a clear Thursday morning awaiting for the first attempt seven days ago in which there was issues that arise in which didn’t mean launch criteria conditions in which on the 21st the weather conditions didn’t met launch criteria with strong upper winds in which the 22nd was an instant go for launch on SLC-4E- Space Launch Complex 4 East at Vandenberg Air force Base, launching at 0617 in the California Morning…..in which this launch is a non-conventional SpaceX launch meaning they won’t recover any of the first stage in which previously landed for the FORMOSAT Five Mission in the August 2017 launch from the very same launch complex SLC-4E….

SpaceX Falcon Nine awaits with three payloads one provided by Airbus Hisdesat’s PAZ,

Launching, commentary is provided by Tom Praderio, Firmware Engineer from SpaceX whom provided the launch commentary of the PAZ-Peace Satellite also the two test SpaceX payloads in providing provisionments of affordable internet communications with at affordability … In which the primary payload Hisdesat’s Airbus PAZ will be placed in Sun Synchronised- low earth equatorial orbit in where share the same orbit with two others TerraSAR-X also TanDem X Satellites.. at 514 Kilometers with Seven Kilometer per second velocity with an scanning coverage of three hundred thousand square Kilometers..  PAZ is a high end weather satellite in which provides high end imagining of 25cm resolution… given its orbit it can operated in regardless of meteorological conditions that’s given..  PAZ has an operations full life cycle of five and half years serving in between governmental and commercial requirements also it part of Copernicus, the European Union’s Earth monitoring programme.…. Orthough the second SpaceX payload deployed as PAZ is deployed it’s out of range of live streaming the telemetry of its deployment as the live stream of the launch was only a unusually short one.

#SpaceX #FalconNine | #PAZ Mission three satellites within one carrier – a non-traditional launching providing an experimentally internet satellite as fired up int to a Sun Synchronized- low earth equatorial orbit…

Orthough the launch is a non-conventional one, that I will not be landing as a reusable,  in which a recovery ship is underway to recover with its custom made capturing net to see if they could net the deployed nose flaring … in which they almost did..

On a clear winters Florida 6th February 2018 afternoon at 1500 hours Eastern time, in which SpaceX have complete successful maiden flight of the Falcon Heavy.. Launching with hard earn working captivation from a cheering team in waiting for the launching from the iconic NASA-KSC Launch complex 39A in which launched the mighty Saturn V Luna Rocket towards, the Moon also the STS-Space Transportation System –Space Shuttle program..

Orthough the  Expected launch was to occur at 1330 Hours Eastern Standard Time it was belayed for least an hour later due to Weather conditions that didn’t met the Launch Criteria it went ahead without any arising Falcon Heavy issues to the at 1500 Hours Eastern Standard Time..  In which the weather meet the launch criteria for a ninety percent favourable later… In which the Launch was a go… in preparations for the launch, FAA certification was required, acquired for the launch due to the new nature of the launch format in which fitting formatting to same Space Shuttle Program format…  As the launch window came to an almost closed…..

During the webcast it was hosted by of panel of four, Lauren Lyons-Flight Reliability Engineer, Michael Hamersley- Materials Engineer, John Insprucker- Principal Integration Engineer, also Brian Mahlstet- Automation Software Engineer.  As the launch sequence continues with the cheering energise team as John described his colleagues… as they explained it, in which Lauren described the launch as a non-customer launch flight due to it was only a test flight… in which the main payload Easter eggs was Elon Musk’s Tesla electric powered Cherry Red Roadster with a new driver known Mannequin named Starman in a SpaceX’s new generation satin white EVA suit that’s designed for the Dragon Module.

Florida 6th February 2018 afternoon – SpaceX Successfully launches the powerful rocket the Falcon Heavy from the iconic NASA-KSC’s launch Complex 39A…..

As it journeys towards the Planet Mars in an into a precessing Earth-Mars elliptical orbit around the sun with fellow driver Starman there’s another part of the Payload is the a celebrated SpaceX plate, Lasered printed with all the staff from SpaceX, also Space hardware grade storage device that’s design to withstands the toughest roughest harsh conditions of space.. .. Apart of this it’s interesting to see how the Starman’s Eva Suit would fair in space…. It’s also important during the flight duration critical data collection is critical learning, modifications towards any onwards Falcon Heavy flight..

least ten minutes after the lift off from NASA-KSC’s Launch Complex 39A is the landing simultaneously of the side stage one core at landing Zone one and two at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station..

The two side Falcon Nine Reusable Cores was previously flight proven in. One launched the Thaicom 8 satellite in May 2016 and the other supported the CRS-9 mission in July 2016 With twenty eight Merlin MD-01 Engines, Stage one with three Falcon nine reusable cores sharing the total combine thrust of twenty seven Merlin Engines with the second stage of one.. Lifting off from the Iconic Historic Launch Complex 39A, in which lifting off with five million pounds of thrust.. In which reaching towards three minutes the two supporting side Falcon Nine Reusable cores detaches in which landing simultaneously back ten Kilometers from its initial launching launch Complex 39A point … with the crowds cheering.. in the background landing together at Landing Zone one and two at Cape Canaveral Air Force Base-Station into seven minutes and fifty eight seconds..   in which while the central core detaches from the second stage into three minutes and twenty four seconds landing back on the off then descending onto a yet to be determine Atlantic Ocean Drone Ship “ Off Course I Still Love You….”  As it landed moments later visual communications was interrupted…  As the Test launch flight conclude not just yet there was a following slight slivering coverage as Starman was traveling around the Planet Earth toward the path towards Mars in the background on Earth blasting out to the tunes of the late Great late 20th – early 21st  century pop musician David Bowie – Is there life on Mars- in which was the inspirational premise tune to the BBC’s year 1970’s in between 2000’s drama of a conscious time travelling British police detective Sam Tyler – Life On Mars..

#SpaceX # FalconHeavy | That Iconic #NASAKSC Launch Complex 39A those twenty seven Merlin Engines will fire up on a date with that is there life on Mars with Off Course I still Love you..

As on 6th February 2018  in New York time can be describe like the BBC life on Mars series with Sam Tyler- John Simms singing the iconic song “ Is the life on Mars”, providing it’s the initial maiden launch of the SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy  in which is currently undergoing systems checking to see if any modifications that need to be address towards the launch from the twenty year lease of the NASA-KSC’s iconic  Launch Complex 39A that launched the mighty Saturn Fives Rockets towards the lunar mission to the Moon Luna, also it launched the STS –Space Transportation System- The Space Shuttle Program in which provide a Work Truck for NASA’s space operations..  As the SpaceX Launch of the Falcon Heavy  is underway also the massive modifications to Launch Complex 39A as it transitions from the STS program towards Falcon Heavy also the BFR-interplanetary –Space-Airliner  Rocket that in due to replace the Falcon Heavy..

As the preparations for the Launch of the Falcon Heavy, the launch format is Retro, as In Retro going back to the launch format of the STS-Space Shuttle era… As the same design configuration is based off the Space Shuttle as it duplicates the same…. As formatted two Falcon nine reusable on either side. With one supporting core Falcon nine reusable together with a combine of twenty seven Merlin Engines, with a secondary rocket that deploys the payload to its destination target……. In which that destination is the Rusty red planet Mars in which is at a fifteen light minutes ago with its first Payload Elon Musk founder of SpaceX, also Tesla Motors is that seductive red roadster  sitting as the main payload core with the Dragon Nine first generation EVA white suit…  Posing position towards mars in which will take least six months..

As Mention, the Launch of the SpaceX Falcon Heavy, is duplication of the Space Shuttle launch procedures with the two supporting mounting Falcon nine’s reusable landing on two landing zone one and two at adjacent  Landing Zone at Cape Canaveral Air force base , while the main core landing latterly on an off shore drone ship “ Off Course I still love you”……in which the following date proceeding with Mars..

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..
