Mission Details
WSF-M 1
WSF-M (Weather System Follow-on - Microwave) is the next-generation operational environmental satellite system for the Department of Defense (DoD), to replace the microwave wavelength weather forecasting capabilities of the DMSP satellites.
Ball Aerospace has been selected in late November 2017 to be the prime contractor for 2 Low Earth Orbit (LEO) weather satellites with a passive microwave imaging radiometer instrument and hosted Government furnished energetic charged particle (ECP) sensor space weather payload developed by the Air Force Research Laboratory. The radiometer leverages the Ball-built Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Microwave Imager (GMI) instrument.
This mission will improve weather forecasting over maritime regions by taking global measurements of the atmosphere and ocean surface.

ЦитироватьSpaceX is targeting Thursday, April 11 for Falcon 9's launch of the USSF-62 mission to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The approximate 10-minute launch window opens at 7:25 a.m. PT. If needed, a backup opportunity is available Friday, April 12 with the same launch window.
A live webcast of this mission will begin on X @SpaceX (https://www.spacex.com/launches/mission/%22https://twitter.com/SpaceX%22) about 15 minutes prior to liftoff. Watch live (https://www.spacex.com/launches/mission/%22https://twitter.com/SpaceX%22).
This will be the third launch of the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched two Starlink missions. Following stage separation, the first stage will land on Landing Zone 4 (LZ-4) at Vandenberg Space Force Base...
