NASA's Next Ozone Layer Instrument Arrives at Launch Site
A NASA instrument to monitor aerosols, the ozone layer, and other gases in our atmosphere fr om space arrived Friday, Nov. 20 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The instrument will now begin final preparations for launch to the International Space Station.
The Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment III on the International Space Station, or SAGE III on ISS, was shipped to Florida from NASA's Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia. The SAGE III instrument, developed at NASA Langley, will undergo final tests before being stowed aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket as part of a NASA space station SpaceX resupply mission. That mission will be launched from Florida's Cape Canaveral Air Force Station no earlier than June 2016.
"It's an important time to add this SAGE III Earth observing instrument for studying atmospheric gases from orbit," said Mike Cisewski, SAGE III on ISS project manager. "The SAGE III data will help scientists get a better idea of the state of recovery in the ozone layer along with other key aerosol measurements that will provide further insight into the trends and processes influencing global climate change."
The SAGE III instrument will be used primarily to study ozone, a gas found in the upper atmosphere that acts as Earth's sunscreen by blocking much of the Sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation. More than 30 years ago, scientists discovered that our planet's protective coat of ozone was thinning. Since then, NASA has orbited a series of increasingly sophisticated SAGE instruments to make accurate measurements of ozone amounts in the upper atmosphere. 
In 1975, the Stratospheric Aerosol Measurement on-orbit experiment was conducted as part of the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. The SAGE II instrument was launched aboard NASA's Earth Radiation Budget Satellite in October 1984 and collected measurements of stratospheric ozone until 2005. A NASA-supplied SAGE III instrument was launched on the Russian Meteor-3M spacecraft in December 2001 and ended service in March 2006. SAGE measurements have played a key role in monitoring the ozone recovery resulting from the 1987 Montreal Protocol's internationally mandated policy changes regulating production of chlorine-containing chemicals.
The newest SAGE III Earth-observing instrument will be mounted on a Nadir Viewing Platform, which was also developed by NASA Langley, shipped to Kennedy Space Center in January 2015, and will be launched along with SAGE III in mid-2016.  Once they arrive at the ISS, the Nadir Viewing Platform and SAGE III will be robotically installed on the space station's ExPress Logistics Carrier – an unpressurized payload platform – wh ere SAGE III will operate alongside experiments from other countries. 
The SAGE III instrument measures light intensities observed at the space station after passing through the Earth's atmosphere during sunsets, sunrises, moonsets and moonrises.  As the ISS goes behind the Earth relative to the sun or moon, the instrument measures the dimming of the sunlight or moonlight caused by the Earth's atmosphere. This dimming, in turn, changes with changing atmospheric aerosol and ozone levels. By making these measurements, SAGE III will provide a long-term data record of key components of the Earth's atmosphere vital for improved understanding of climate change and ozone chemistry. 
SAGE III on ISS is a partnership between NASA Langley and the International Space Station Program Office at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, with support from the Earth Science Division of NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. Other mission partners include the Kennedy Space Center, Ball Aerospace Technologies Corp., the European Space Agency, Thales Alenia Space-Italy, NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland; NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama; SpaceX; and Hampton University in Hampton, Virginia.

SAGE III to Look Back at Earth's Atmospheric 'Sunscreen'  
 
By Bob Granath
NASA's Kennedy Space Center, Florida
On the upcoming SpaceX CRS-10 resupply mission to the International Space Station (ISS), a Dragon spacecraft will deliver the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment (SAGE) III instrument to further study ozone in the atmosphere.
Once mounted on the space station, SAGE III will measure the Earth's sunscreen, or ozone, along with other gases and aerosols, or tiny particles in the atmosphere. SAGE will make its measurements by locking onto the sun or moon and scanning the limb, or thin profile of the atmosphere fr om that unique vantage point.
During the late 1970s, scientists began tracking a steady decline of ozone in the Earth's stratosphere. It was determined this was caused by extensive use of human-produced chemicals. Following years of global efforts to significantly reduce the number of ozone-depleting substances, experts now are optimistic the ozone layer will recover.
Launch atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket currently is scheduled for late fall this year.
NASA has a team of specialists with decades of experience dedicated to Earth science research such as SAGE III.
The fourth generation in a series of NASA Earth-observing instruments, SAGE III will be mounted on the space station where it will use the unique vantage point of low-Earth orbit to make long-term measurements of ozone, aerosols, water vapor and other gases in Earth's atmosphere.
 

Preparing for Launch

Since the instrument arrived at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, engineers at the Florida spaceport have assisted SAGE team members fr om NASA's Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia in preparing it for launch.
According to Rob Kuczajda, a Kennedy project manager in the ISS Utilization and Life Sciences Office, this SAGE III effort has been underway for several years.
"Our role actually began back in September 2011," he said. "We sent a small delegation of engineers to Langley to meet with the SAGE team and learn about the payload. Our message was that Kennedy had years of expertise processing ISS payloads and that we were available to assist with SAGE III. Over the next four years, Kennedy engineers helped assemble and test parts of the payload."
SAGE III now is being stored in the high bay of Kennedy's Space Station Processing Facility (SSPF), a world-class processing laboratory. Every American-launched element for construction of the ISS, all cargo and each experiment is prepared and checked out in the SSPF, a crucial part of a premier multi-user spaceport.
. While space station construction is complete, the facility remains active where specialized ISS payloads continue to be processed and tested prior to launch.
Because of the instrument's special optics, additional precautions during testing and processing were necessary.
"We spent about a year designing and constructing a super-clean 'tent' in the SSPF high bay," Kuczajda said. "This is considered a Class '10K,' or 10,000, clean room. The designation signifies that there are less than 10,000 particles greater than half-micron in size in any cubic foot of air – that's about 150 times cleaner than the air in the average living room."
The special care and testing will ensure SAGE III is ready for its crucial role of studying the Earth.
 

The Ozone Hole

The highest levels of ozone in the atmosphere are in the stratosphere, a region also known as the ozone layer from about 6 to 31 miles above the Earth's surface. Ozone depletion has included larger springtime decreases in stratospheric ozone around Earth's polar regions, often referred to as the "ozone hole."
"When scientists realized there was a hole in the ozone layer," Kuczajda said, "it was determined that man-made chemicals were rapidly depleting ozone in the parts of the atmosphere that protect us from the harmful UV (ultraviolet) rays of the sun."
After the discovery, worldwide concern grew because the unabsorbed portion of UV rays passing through the ozone layer causes sunburns in humans, as well as direct DNA damage in living tissues in both plants and animals.
Scientists determined the primary cause of ozone depletion was extensive use of chlorofluorocarbons employed as refrigerants, solvents and propellants in aerosol sprays.
To better understand this phenomena, SAGE was first flown during 1979 as a follow-up to the Stratospheric Aerosol Measurement, or SAM, on the July 1975 Apollo-Soyuz mission. SAGE II was a part of the Earth Radiation Budget Satellite, or ERBS, deployed by the crew of space shuttle Challenger in 1984. The SAGE III designed for the ISS is almost a duplicate of one launched in 2001 on a Russian Meteor-3M satellite.
On Sept. 16, 1987, an international treaty, known as the Montreal Protocol, was signed by most nations of the world. The agreement called for phasing out production of many of the substances that were responsible for ozone depletion. The treaty has been in force since Jan. 1, 1989.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a scientific organization under the auspices of the United Nations, announced in 2005 that their observations of the stratosphere showed that the global amount of ozone is stabilizing. The IPCC study indicates that the atmosphere layer is expected to begin to recover in coming decades if the ban on ozone-depleting substances continues.
"It will be good to know that the efforts we are taking here, with the science community and across the globe, are actually improving and getting the ozone layer back to wh ere it was 60 years ago," said Randy Wade, support manager of off-line labs in Kennedy's Exploration Research and Technology Programs Directorate.
 

Testing and Teamwork

To ensure SAGE III will be ready to go to work once it arrives at the ISS, extensive checkouts have been taking place in the special processing area of the SSPF.
"The processing has included functional testing on the payload, to verify everything is operating correctly after shipment of the payload from Langley to Florida," Kuczajda said.
Jennifer Wahlberg, also a Kennedy utilization project manager, has played a key role in helping coordinate the Langley team's testing.
"We have been assisting the SAGE III team from Langley with our ISS simulators," she said. "They have performed command and data handling checkouts to make sure everything is going to transmit the data correctly, that commands go up and data can come down."
Wahlberg explains that most of the SAGE III checkouts have been completed for the time being.
"They have done as much as they can so far," she said. "About two months from launch, the SAGE III team from Langley will return to Kennedy for their final checkouts and tests."
Kuczajda pointed out that after the SAGE III team returns in September and hardware inspections are complete, the instrument will go back into the shipping container.
"The Kennedy Logistics team will deliver the instrument to the SpaceX payload processing facility at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station wh ere it will be prepared for flight aboard the Dragon spacecraft," he said.
Wahlberg had high praise for the team from Langley.
"It's been great to work with the SAGE III team for the past several years," she said. "It's really amazing to see how many people can work together to bring successful science to bear."
"And the feeling is mutual," said Mike Cisewski, SAGE III/ISS project manager at NASA's Langley Research Center. "Support from the KSC team has been exemplary through our payload development and processing at KSC. From logistics, to assembly of portions of our Nadir Viewing Platform and vibration testing fixture, for outstanding support at the Space Station Processing Facility, they have been great partners."
Once SAGE III is installed on the ISS, Wade is hoping the instrument sends back data that the ozone layer is improving.
"I've seen a lot of changes in fluorocarbon use," he said. "We've done a lot of things here at the Kennedy Space Center to reduce the use of fluorocarbons, and automobile cooling systems have changed. So they are going to try to verify if those efforts made on Earth have helped improve the ozone layer."
Wahlberg sees long-term benefits in the SAGE III research.
"I wish all the payload teams and the science teams great success," she said. "I know they are doing important work for our future generations."

ЦитироватьSpaceX targeting launch from KSC as soon as Nov. 17
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/226318.webp) James Dean (http://www.floridatoday.com/staff/10179/james-dean/), FLORIDA TODAY 11:23 a.m. EDT September 29, 2016

SpaceX has circled Nov. 17 as a tentative date for its next launch of a Falcon 9 rocket from Florida, on a mission that would launch International Space Station (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/main/) supplies from Kennedy Space Center (https://www.nasa.gov/).
The Air Force's 45th Space Wing last week approved the date for planning purposes, Space Florida officials said Wednesday during a board meeting in Orlando.
"We're happy to see them continue to move towards the goal of getting back into spaceflight," said Jim Kuzma, Space Florida's operations chief.
Don't invite your friends and relatives to visit for the launch just yet, though.
Despite publicly saying that it hopes to launch in the "November timeframe," SpaceX has not completed its investigation into why a Falcon 9 exploded on its Cape Canaveral Air Force Station pad (http://www.floridatoday.com/story/tech/science/space/spacex/2016/09/01/explosion-reported-spacex-pad/89710076/) during a countdown rehearsal on Sept. 1.
NASA has no official launch date for the mission, SpaceX's 10th under an ISS resupply contract, according to a spokesman.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said on Tuesday, after unveiling a concept for colonizing Mars (http://www.floridatoday.com/story/tech/science/space/spacex/2016/09/27/spacex-unveils-mars-rocket-concept/91134588/) at a space conference in Mexico, that he was not distracted from the investigation.
"It would be incorrect to say that it is anything other than our absolute top priority to understand exactly what went wrong there and what we can do to prevent anything like that in the future," he told reporters at the International Astronautical Congress in Guadalajara, Mexico.

NASA now planning for Feb. 8 launch of Falcon 9/Dragon from KSC on SpaceX's CRS-10 cargo mission; Dragon would berth at ISS on Feb. 11.

ЦитироватьОчередной старт космического грузовика Dragon к МКС намечен на 8 февраля
22:45 04.01.2017
 
ВАШИНГТОН, 4 янв — РИА Новости. Следующий рейс космического грузовика Dragon компании SpaceX к Международной космической станции (МКС) намечен на 8 февраля, сообщил журналистам руководитель программы МКС в НАСА Кенет Тодд.
"Предстоят очень активные несколько месяцев... В районе второй недели февраля мы планируем вести подготовку к прибытию корабля Dragon компании SpaceX. Мы работаем с их командой по мере их восстановления от сентябрьского инцидента (взрыва ракеты Falcon 9 при заправке топлива во время предстартовой подготовки — ред.), и сейчас мы ориентируемся на запуск 8 февраля с последующей стыковкой со станцией 11 февраля", — сообщил Тодд на брифинге.
Последняя успешная миссия грузовика Dragon к МКС состоялась в июле 2016 года. Ранее очередной полет грузовика Dragon к МКС был намечен на ноябрь 2016 года, но из-за аварии с Falcon 9 был перенесен. Первый после взрыва старт Falcon 9 с коммерческим спутником запланирован на 8 января.
По информации представителя НАСА, следующий рейс грузового корабля Cygnus компании Orbital ATK намечен на март.
До прибытия американских кораблей МКС в конце января покинут японский грузовой корабль HTV и российский "Прогресс".
В отношении графика полетов российских пилотируемых и грузовых миссий к МКС представитель ведомства отметил, что "НАСА контактирует с российскими коллегами и обсуждает с ними предстоящий график".

NASA will host a media teleconference at 3 p.m. EST Wednesday, Feb. 8, to discuss research investigations launching aboard the next SpaceX commercial resupply flight to the International Space Station. Among the investigations are experiments with potential to fight human disease and a new autonomous spacecraft docking technology for testing.
The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft is targeted to launch no earlier than mid-February, on a Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This will be the first mission from the historic launch pad since SpaceX began to modernize the pad's structures in preparation to fly astronauts on NASA missions for the agency's Commercial Crew Program.
To participate in the science preview teleconference, reporters must contact Tabatha Thompson at 202-358-1100 or tabatha.t.thompson@nasa.gov (mailto:tabatha.t.thompson@nasa.gov) by 1 p.m. Wednesday for dial-in information. 
The briefing participants will include:

Ранее сообщалось, что, по предварительным планам НАСА, грузовик может отправиться к МКС 8 февраля.
"Запуск корабля Dragon компании SpaceX на ракете Falcon 9 со стартовой площадке 39А Космического центра имени Кеннеди во Флориде состоится не раньше середины февраля", — сообщает ведомство. По информации портала Spaceflight Now, старт намечен на 19:34 мск 14 февраля.
Это будет 12-ый старт Dragon и его 10-ая грузовая миссия к МКС по контракту с НАСА. В ведомстве отмечают, что это будет первый запуск со стартовой площадки 39А космодрома на мысе Канаверал после модернизации, которую SpaceX провела в рамках подготовки будущих пилотируемых миссий по контракту с НАСА.
В среду, 8 февраля НАСА проведет брифинг, на котором расскажет о содержании груза, который будет доставлен на МКС при помощи Dragon.
Последняя успешная миссия грузовика Dragon к МКС состоялась в июле 2016 года. Ранее очередной полет грузовика Dragon к МКС был намечен на ноябрь 2016 года, но из-за аварии с Falcon 9 был перенесен. Первый, после взрыва, успешный старт Falcon 9 с коммерческим спутником состоялся в начале января.

ЦитироватьFire to return to LC-39A with Falcon 9 static fire ahead of CRS-10 launch
February 10, 2017 by Chris Gebhardt
 (https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/209004.jpg)
A moment nearly six years in the making.  Fire and flame are expected to return to the historic LC-39A launch pad at the Kennedy Space Center as SpaceX conducts the static fire of its Falcon 9 rocket tasked with lofting the SpX-10 Dragon resupply mission to the International Space Station.  The ignition – now scheduled for Saturday – of the Falcon 9's engines will be the first time since the Space Shuttle Atlantis left Kennedy on 8 July 2011 that the sound and thrust of rocket engines have graced pad 39A.

Спойлер

The path to static fire:
LC-39A was already deep into its reconfiguration – more accurately described as a complete rebuild – for the Falcon rocket family at the time of the AMOS-6 static fire mishap on 1 September 2016 (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2016/09/falcon-9-explodes-amos-6-static-fire//).
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208985.jpg) (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2016/09/spacex-press-amos-6-failure-root-cause/)
At the time of AMOS-6 (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2016/09/spacex-press-amos-6-failure-root-cause/), Pad A was nowhere near the top of the priority list for SpaceX, which was marching through – at a quick cadence – its 2016 launch manifest with SLC-40 at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
At the time of the mishap, SpaceX had hoped to have LC-39A at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) "ready" to host its first Falcon mission by November 2016.
Once the AMOS-6 accident occurred (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2016/10/spacex-prepares-upcoming-falcon-9-amos-6/), the readiness of 39A quickly catapulted to the top of the priority list for SpaceX as the company completed its investigation into the static fire RUD (Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly) and successfully returned the Falcon 9 to flight with the Iridium NEXT mission in January 2017 from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.

While LC-39A – from the Shuttle era – contained elements SpaceX could use, such as a flame trench, a launch pad, and a sound suppression system, extensive modifications to the pad had to be made to accommodate the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets.
Perhaps the most visible of these changes involved the construction of the Horizontal Integration Facility (HIF) on top of the former crawlerway inside the pad perimeter gate as well as the installation of rainbirds to douse the pad and rockets with sound suppression water.
Additionally, electrical connections, data cables, propellant feed lines, and a host of other reconstructive efforts had to be undertaken at the pad to accommodate the Falcon rocket family.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208961.jpg)
In essence, SpaceX was constructing an entire new pad at KSC (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/tag/39A/) – with the physical, aboveground features of 39A remaining largely as they were at the completion of the Shuttle program – with the Fixed Service Structure (FSS) and portions of the Rotating Service Structure (RSS) still standing.
Moreover, a unique element that has drawn attention to Pad A's readiness to host a Falcon rocket is that the pad itself is the critical item in determining when the first Falcon flight from 39A can occur.
Normally, delays in development and construction of a rocket outpace the delays to pad construction, verification, and validation.
In this case, the use of LC-39A and the delays to its readiness were thrust into the spotlight after AMOS-6.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208963.jpg)Nonetheless, the SpaceX team is to be commended for the superb and time-consuming work they have undertaken at the pad.
In the last two weeks, highly visible progress toward pad readiness has occurred – following the pad's earlier "completion and activation" for verification and validation testing.
In late January, the Transport/Erector/Launcher (TEL) went vertical at the pad for the first time – testing connections and the new "throwback" release feature (which sounds more dramatic than it will be in reality) that will debut on SpX-10 in which the TEL will retract at T0 instead of earlier in the count as it has on all other Falcon 9 launches.
With those tests complete, SpaceX continued to tweak and refine the pad and TEL.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208962.jpg)
By 5 February, workers and engineers were into final documentation and validation of Pad A – an internal review process to confirm that the pad is indeed rocket ready.
At the same time, the first and second stages of the Falcon 9 were mated together in the HIF by the night of 6 February, with the TEL moving into the HIF on the 8th for mating to the Falcon 9.
On 7 February, SpaceX formally amended their request to the Eastern Range for the date of the static fire, moving it from Wednesday the 8th to Thursday the 9th within a window of 1600 EST – 2200 EST.
Curiously, SpaceX also requested a backup opportunity for Friday the 10th during the same 1600 – 2200 EST time window. That was since extended to a window that runs through to midnight local time.
However, the attempt was then moved to Saturday for unknown reasons, with the window opening at 1000 EST. SpaceX engineers still used Friday to rotate the vehicle to the vertical position, to allow for final checks ahead of Saturday's fueling.
 
The reason for the flow milestones most likely stemmed from the fact that once the Falcon 9 is mated to the TEL in the HIF, it then has to be transported up the ramp of 39A, positioned to vertical, and connected to the pad – at which point a whole new series of tests that can only be performed once a Falcon is on the pad can begin.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208960.jpg)
As with any new launch pad, identification and fixes of anomalies are to be expected.
Moreover, a security notice to all KSC personnel announced that security would set up roadblocks to the LC-39A and 39B area.
This followed the expected and previously announced closure of Pad B for the static fires and launches of the Falcon 9 from Pad A.
The initial notice stated that Pad B would be closed all day for static fires and closed during the launch periods for all Falcon 9 missions from LC-39A.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208969.jpg)
A subsequent release noted the exact reasons why 39B would be closed for the events.
According to a document acquired by NASASpaceflight.com and available for download on L2 (https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=42086.msg1639145#msg1639145), pad 39B lies within the 2-mile radius around 39A that is the "contamination control buffer around the payload once it arrives in the LC-39A area."
While this alone would not be enough to close Pad B for static  (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/tag/39B/)fires, the only roadway accessing Pad B lies right at the edge of the 5,100 foot radius around LC-39A that is the "SpaceX keep out zone" for the static fire as coordinated by SpaceX and the Federal Aviation Administration.
For reference, the same document reveals that the Blast Danger Area (BDA) for the static fire is a 2,700 foot radius around Pad A – which does not come close to Pad B.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208990.png)
The document, while only encompassing the static fire, did lend some explanation for why Playalinda Beach, located north of LC-39A, was to be open to the public for the static fires and launches of Falcon 9's from Pad A – though that was changed Thursday, and the beach will now be closed for both events.
For every Space Shuttle launch, Playalinda Beach was a restricted area as it lay within the BDA for the Shuttle; however, since Falcon 9 has a much smaller BDA, the beach was originally to have remained open for Falcon 9 launch viewings.  A subsequent risk assessment determined that closing the beach was the better option.
Moreover, the document confirms that the KSC Emergency Operations Center will be active and will monitor the static fires of Falcon 9s from Pad A.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208934.jpg)
The document states that "in the unlikely event of an anomaly, [the KSC Emergency Operations Center] will assist in the response and communicate any necessary actions to the appropriate personnel; even if there were a catastrophic anomaly LC-39A, it would pose no danger or threat to personnel."
For the SpX-10 static fire, once the Falcon 9 is vertical on Pad A and its electrical, data, and propellant connections are secured and tested, the vehicle will perform a standard countdown with the SpaceX launch team to verify all of the connections and propellant flow capabilities for the new pad.
The countdown test will culminate with a 3.5 second firing of all nine Merlin 1D engines at the base of the Falcon 9 first stage.
Once engine firing occurs, the teams will move into post-fire securing operations, safing the vehicle before de-tanking it and rolling it back to the HIF for payload mate.
SpX-10 launch date moved to Feb. 18 due to range conflict:
At the beginning of the week, SpaceX and NASA had been targeting a launch date of 14 February during an 1131-1136 EST window for the CRS-10 mission to the International Space Station.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208987.jpg)
However, that date subsequently moved to a new official target date of 18 February due to a range conflict.
The conflict, curiously, was not with the ability of the Falcon 9 to launch but rather with the ability of the first stage to return to Landing Zone 1 (LZ-1) back at the Cape.
While the precise nature of the conflict is not known, it is understood that a portion of the range asset necessary for the Falcon 9 first stage's return was already spoken for by another customer during the period of the 14-17 February.
In coordination with NASA, SpaceX slipped the launch to the 18th to ensure that the first stage could indeed return to the Cape.
An historic pad marks KSC transition to a multi-user spaceport:
Flames last touched LC-39A on 8 July 2011 during the final flight of the Space Shuttle Program.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208954.png)
After that, Pad A lay dormant, with its immediate future clouded in uncertainty as NASA searched for commercial companies who might wish to take possession of the pad – which NASA had deemed largely unnecessary for the Space Launch System program less the use of its LH2 storage facility for the massive BEO (Beyond Earth Orbit) rocket's hydrogen fuel supply.
This uncertainty persisted for three years until the formal signing of documents that triggered the beginning of a 20-year lease of pad 39A and its facilities to SpaceX on 14 April 2014 (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2013/12/spacex-negotiations-new-life-pad39a/).
With all eyes now on SpX-10 and the first SpaceX flight from 39A, the pad is also set to host in 2018 the historic first launch of humans aboard commercial rockets (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2016/06/spacex-progress-human-missions-dragonfalcon-9/) as well as the first human-rated spacecraft to Mars (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2016/04/spacex-debut-red-dragon-2018-mars-mission/).
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208951.png)
With this, SpaceX will add to the impressive career of 39A that stretches back to 1962.
In May 1961, when President Kennedy announced the goal of "landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to Earth" before the end of the decade, it quickly became evident that the existing  pads at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station would not be sufficient for the mighty Saturn V rocket.
In 1962, NASA entered into agreements to acquire 218 square miles of land upon which the Launch Operations Center, subsequently renamed the Kennedy Space Center following President Kennedy's assassination, was constructed.
Originally, the plan for KSC called for three launch pads, with the launch complex itself officially named Launch Complex 39 and its pads receiving alphanumeric designations of "A" to "C" – with 39A being the northernmost pad and 39C being the southernmost.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208950.png)
As less funding than expected materialized, plans for the original 39A were scrapped, and NASA pursued a two pad system that reorganized the pad numbering system.
Thus, the southernmost pad – which entered its construction phase first – became pad 39A instead of 39C.
Construction workers completed Pad 39A in 1965 and final outfitting proceeded into 1967.
On 26 August 1967, Pad A received its first rocket – the Apollo 4 Saturn V.
With the launch of Apollo 4 came the first of 92 launches from Pad A to date – 12 for Apollo and 80 for Shuttle.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208952.png) (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2014/07/apollo-11-marks-45-years-since-historic-launch/)
Through those 92 missions, none was as historic as the pad's use on 16 July 1969 to launch Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins on Apollo 11 for the first human lunar landing. (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2014/07/apollo-11-marks-45-years-since-historic-launch/)
Following the launch of all the crewed Apollo lunar landing missions, Pad A then hosted the launch of the U.S.'s first space station, Skylab, on 14 May 1973.
With the launch of Skylab (the last un-crewed launch to occur from Pad A), the pad was deactivated and formal preparations to transform it into a standing structure model for the Space Shuttle began.
In 1979, 39A hosted its first Space Shuttle stack as the Shuttle Enterprise (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2012/04/space-shuttle-enterprise-the-orbiter-that-started-it-all/) arrived for fit checks and validation and verification efforts that could only be achieved with a Shuttle at the pad.
The use of Enterprise for these checks made Pad A the only pad to host all six Shuttle Orbiters.
(https://img.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/208953.png) (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2012/04/space-shuttle-enterprise-the-orbiter-that-started-it-all/)
The Space Shuttle era then began from the pad on 12 April 1981 – with Pad A hosting the inaugural flights of Columbia (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2011/02/columbia-ov-102-a-pioneer-to-the-end/), Challenger, Discovery, and Atlantis (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2011/07/ov-104atlantis-international-vehicle-changing-world/).
The pad hosted the first 24 Shuttle missions in exclusivity – from STS-1/Columbia to STS-61C/Columbia.
Pad A also hosted the very first construction flight of the International Space Station (Endeavour's STS-88 mission in December 1998 ) as well as the mission which completed U.S. assembly of the Station – Endeavour's STS-134 mission in May 2011.
Sadly, Pad A's history includes tragedy, as the pad was the launching point for the Columbia and her crew on 16 January 2003 on STS-107 (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2013/02/sts-107-remembering-columbia-crew/).
Then, as it did at the beginning of the Shuttle program, Pad A hosted the final 18 Shuttle missions in exclusivity – from STS-117/Atlantis to the emotional final flight of STS-135/Atlantis (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2011/07/reaching-end-atlantis-fight-against-retirement/).
Through all of this history, Pad A has been a single user, single spacecraft launch platform.
While SpaceX's exclusive lease will keep LC-39A as a single user pad, it will now serve two variants of the same rocket family – the Falcon 9 and the Falcon Heavy.
But more importantly, SpaceX's lease of the pad and its upcoming inaugural launch for a commercial company officially makes the Kennedy Space Center a multi-user spaceport – a prime goal of the facility following the retirement of the shuttle fleet.

А тут:

Цитироватьпотребитель смузи и посетитель завсегдатай Старбакса, не хочет работать, но ему нужна красивая, модная и благородная причина для этого, нельзя же признаваться в отсутствии компетенций и нежелании учиться, правда. Западная пропаганда уже давно услужливо подсказала им правильный текст, и теперь ходят по соцсетям стада однотипных мальчиков и девочек, которые закатывают глаза и говорят, что вот в России нет своих Илонов Масков или Стивов Джобсов, а работать на государство им не хочется, ибо это скучно и не креативно. Ну а дальше следует типичная тирада про "рашку" и "эту безнадежную страну". Я уже много раз рассказывал, что вся креативность Илона Маска сконцентрирована в двух областях: выбивание и последующее распиливание государственных денег и пиар...
Оказывается, у Илона Маска есть ещё один талант и для его описания я буду вынужден использовать слова из лексикона начала XX века. Маск максимально жёстко эксплуатирует своих рабочих, причём есть обоснованные подозрения, что делает это он даже с нарушениями довольно либеральных американских законов по защите прав трудящихся.
В западной инфосфере наделал много шума пост одного из рабочих завода Тесла Моторс, Хосе Морана (https://medium.com/@moran2017j/time-for-tesla-to-listen-ab5c6259fc88), в котором он описывает специфику работы на идола российской либерды. Начнем с того что зарплата рабочего на заводах Теслы на 20-25% ниже, чем зарплата рабочих на заводах других автопроизводителей, при том, что рабочим приходится жить в Калифорнии, где жизнь очень дорогая. Но это мелочи, по сравнению с обязательной сверхурочной работой, которой рабочие обязаны заниматься под страхом увольнения, причем по мнению рабочего, написавшего постинг, без доходов от дополнительных часов работы, многие сотрудники Теслы не смогли бы сводить концы с концами. Атмосфера на предприятии такая хорошая, а менеджмент такой дружелюбный, что рабочие предпочитают не сообщать о травмах, полученных на производстве для того чтобы не получить звание "нытика" и серьезных проблем с начальством.
Я не зря упомянул о том, что Маск - отличный, можно сказать гениальный, пиарщик, и он знает, что рассказы рабочих его предприятий об их условиях труда могут испортить имидж его компании, которой он долго создавал ореол чуть ли не святости. Тесла - это же ведь про экологию, про хайтек, про социальную ответственность, про поддержку сексуальных меньшинств, а не про то, что усталые и бедные калифорнийские рабочие в плохо проветриваемом цеху пихают японские батарейки Панасоник в машины, которые потом объявляются лучшим достижением американского хайтека. Так вот, пиарщик Маск заранее защитил имидж компании, заставив весь персонал подписать соглашение о конфиденциальности, в котором есть запреты на обсуждения зарплаты и условий труда. Такие соглашения есть у многих компаний, но правила Теслы уникальны тем, что обсуждать зарплату и условия труда нельзя не только с людьми, которые не работают в компании или с журналистами, а даже и с собственными коллегами по работе. Это сделано не просто так, а для того чтобы можно было законно уволить любого, кто пытается организовать на производстве профсоюз или для увольнения тех, кто захочет коллективно попросить увеличения зарплаты

Жесткий оффтоп, но если тут опять начали ныть про Маска эксплуататора :-) 
Немного истории, в Фремонт, Калифорния, был большой автозавод NUMMI - совместное производство Toyota и GM(Шеви). Рабочие там были в профсоюзе, завод закрылся 2010, рабочих уволили под ноль, Шеви полностью ушли, Toyota построила новый завод в Техасе. Профсоюз безусловно был одной из причин нерентабельности завода. И дело тут даже не в зарплатах, а в "веселой" организации труда "по-профсоюзному". Об этом много написано, если хотите сами поищите в сети про американские автопрофсоюзы. Тесла выкупила территорию и корпуса простаивающего завода NUMMI и теперь это Tesla Factory.

И с скотами, которые за копейки требуют такого же отношения к делу, как от себя, но получающего намного больше, то это скотство. А если деятель раздал поручения и уехал запихивать шмарам под хвост на острова, то это вообще предел. Вы забыли, как сто лет назад, таких деятелей вешали на столбах, кто не успел удрать. Должна быть разумная середина, нужно уметь договариваться и соблюдать правила, для чего существует трудовой кодекс. Все стороны должны его придерживаться и профсоюзы должны следить за его исполнением. Если профсоюз переходит грань присмотра за трудовыми отношениями, то это уже другой разговор. Кстати, профсоюзы могу противостоять изменениями в кодексе по поражению прав тех, у кого собственники покупают услуги.

Вы не знаете истории. Обычно игнорирование заканчивалось революциями и жестокими войнами. Европа пропитана кровью на несколько метров вглубь не в последнюю очередь из-за скотского отношения к населению, особенно во Франции.

В этом плане Маск где-то посередине между полным скотом и вменяемым руководителем. Заставляя своих людей пахать как проклятые, он не отлынивает, и сам там сидит вместе с ними. Маск со своим СпейсХ это как проходной двор, старт в более благополучные компании.

Скажите, за несоблюдение каких конкретно норм трудового законодательства в штате Калифорния с компании могут содрать такие средства, что якобы "дураков нет"?
МРОТ просьба не упоминать.

Да пожалуйста.
Например, заставьте своих работников работать более 60 часов в неделю.
И посмотрим на результат.

NASA provider SpaceX is scheduled to launch its 10th Commercial Resupply Services mission to the International Space Station (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/main/index.html) no earlier than 10:01 a.m. EST Saturday, Feb. 18. Live coverage of the launch will begin at 8:30 a.m. on NASA Television and the agency's website.

The SpaceX Dragon (http://www.nasa.gov/spacex) spacecraft will lift off on the company's Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, carrying science research (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/SX10_science), crew supplies and hardware to the orbiting laboratory in support of the Expedition 50 and 51 crew members.

Media at the agency's Kennedy Space Center in Florida will have the opportunity to participate in special tours and briefings Feb. 16 and 17, as well as view the launch. The deadline for media to apply for accreditation for this launch has passed. For more information about media accreditation, contact Jennifer Horner at 321-867-6598 or jennifer.p.horner@nasa.gov (mailto:jennifer.p.horner@nasa.gov).

About 10 minutes after launch, Dragon will reach its preliminary orbit, deploy its solar arrays and begin a carefully choreographed series of thruster firings to reach the space station. SpaceX also is planning to attempt to land its Falcon 9 first stage on land.

Astronauts Shane Kimbrough of NASA and Thomas Pesquet of ESA (European Space Agency) will use the station's robotic arm to capture Dragon when it arrives at the space station after its two-day journey. The spacecraft will be berthed to the Earth-facing port on the Harmony module. The following day, the space station crew will pressurize the vestibule between the station and Dragon, then open the hatch that leads to the forward bulkhead of Dragon.

Live coverage of the rendezvous and capture will begin at 7:30 a.m. Monday, Feb. 20, on NASA TV, with installation set to begin at 11:30 a.m. 

If the launch does not occur Saturday, Feb. 18, the next launch opportunity is 9:38 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 19, with NASA TV coverage starting at 8 a.m.

For about a month, crew members will unload the spacecraft and reload it with cargo to return to Earth. About five-and-a-half hours after it departs the station on March 21, it will splash down in the Pacific Ocean, off the coast of Baja California.

Science investigations launching on Dragon include commercial and academic research investigations that will enable researchers to advance their knowledge of the medical, psychological and biomedical challenges astronauts face during long-duration spaceflight.

One experiment (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experiments/1971.html) will use the microgravity environment to grow stem cells that are of sufficient quality and quantity to use in the treatment of patients who have suffered a stroke. A Merck Research Labs investigation (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experiments/1972.html) will test growth in microgravity of antibodies important for fighting a wide range of human diseases, including cancer.

In addition, NASA's Stratospheric Aerosol Gas Experiment (https://www.nasa.gov/feature/sage-iii-to-look-back-at-earths-atmospheric-sunscreen) III mission and Lightning Imaging Sensor (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experiments/2011.html) will provide continuity for key climate observations and data records.

The Elon Musk-led spaceflight company and rocket provider SpaceX will attempt to recover one of its Falcon 9 rocket (http://observer.com/2016/05/get-up-close-and-personal-with-spacexs-history-making-falcon-9-rocket/) boosters following a launch of the firm's Dragon spacecraft (http://observer.com/2017/02/spacexs-road-to-mars-to-begin-with-first-mission-from-iconic-apollo-11-launch-pad/) with supplies, science experiments, and hardware to the International Space Station. Liftoff is scheduled for Saturday February 18th at 10:01AM ET fr om NASA's historic Kennedy Space Center. The rocket will blaze a fiery trail through the Florida sky and touch down minutes later.

SpaceX confirmed the ground landing—which will occur at Cape Canaveral Landing Zone 1—in an email to the Observer. The company has successfully landed two other Falcon 9 boosters (http://observer.com/2016/05/get-up-close-and-personal-with-spacexs-history-making-falcon-9-rocket/) at that site. The first occurred on December 21st, 2015 and was a historic event for the aerospace industry, marking the first recovery of a rocket that has flown to orbit.

More recently, during a previous Dragon mission to the space station in August of 2016, SpaceX performed a boost back maneuver following the separation of the Falcon 9's first-stage and smoothly navigated it for a vertical landing at Cape Canaveral. The Observer published a detailed account (http://observer.com/2016/07/what-its-like-to-cover-spacex-as-they-blaze-a-trail-to-mars/) of that landing and the events at Kennedy Space Center leading up to it here.

CEO Elon Musk founded SpaceX in 2002 with a vision for making space exploration sustainable and the company has worked throughout the years to improve the reusability of their rockets. Musk tells his employees to imagine a traditional rocket as 30 million dollars plummeting toward Earth and use it as motivation for recovering it. SpaceX has successfully recovered 7 rockets so far.

Musk has a grand vision for one day colonizing Mars and making humans a multiplanetary species. To do so, SpaceX must perfect reusability. The company intends to launch a previously recovered (what they are calling a "flight-proven") rocket very soon from Kennedy Space Center.

SpaceX has also successfully recovered its Falcon 9 booster four times on its autonomous drone ship at sea, the Of Course I Still Love You, which is parked miles off of Florida's coastline. The company also recently recovered a Falcon 9 booster on its west coast droneship the Just Read The Instructions.

Saturday's mission will be historic for SpaceX. For the first time, they are using NASA's Launch Complex 39A, which they leased from the agency in 2014 and has since refurbished. It will also be the first launch of any kind from the Kennedy Space Center pad since 2011 when the space shuttle program was shuttered. When Musk unveiled his plan for launching the Interplanetary Transport System to Mars (http://observer.com/2016/10/elon-musk-tells-reddit-how-spacex-will-make-humanity-a-multi-planetary-species/) with humanity's first colonists, LC-39A was the site wh ere SpaceX envisions that mission taking off from.

Until then, SpaceX will continue to provide rockets for private companies and NASA-contracted missions to pay its bills and finance their mission to Mars. This weekend's launch is the 10th resupply service mission SpaceX is handling for NASA and will send its Dragon cargo vehicle to the International Space Station packed with supplies for the Expedition 50 and 51 crew members aboard the orbiting laboratory.

About 10 minutes after liftoff atop the Falcon 9 from Kennedy Space Center on Saturday, the Dragon spacecraft will reach a preliminary orbit and deploy its solar arrays. The capsule spacecraft will then maneuver its way toward the space station using its thrusters while the Falcon 9 booster will begin its journey back to Cape Canaveral for the landing attempt.

The Observer will be on-site with NASA and SpaceX beginning Thursday morning to visit Launch Pad 39A, learn about the science heading to the space station, and to view the launch and landing.

 KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. — For the first time since 2011, a rocket will be sending supplies and a collection of science experiments for the International Space Station (ISS (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/main/index.html)) fr om Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A). However, the Commercial Resupply Service (CRS) 10 mission, scheduled for Feb. 18, 2017, is not being flown by a NASA launch vehicle, but SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket.

GETTING THE HARDWARE IN ORDER

SpaceX's launch fr om LC-39A also will be a major milestone for Elon Musk's rocket company. In addition to being the first flight from the former Apollo and Space Shuttle site, it will mark the company's first flight from Florida since the Sept. 1, 2016, loss (http://www.spaceflightinsider.com/organizations/space-exploration-technologies/spacex-falcon-9-amos-6-explodes-slc-40/) of a Falcon 9 during a static fire test. The accident resulted in the loss of both the rocket and Amos-6 satellite on top and severely damaged Space Launch Complex 40, SpaceX's other East Coast launch site, which is just south of LC-39A.

The last time SpaceX launched a Dragon cargo spacecraft to the ISS was on July 18, 2016.

On Feb. 10, 2017, the California-based company rolled (http://www.spaceflightinsider.com/organizations/space-exploration-technologies/spacex-falcon-9-vertical-at-historic-launch-complex-39a/) its Falcon 9 and into a vertical position at LC-39A on its new transporter-erector. Two days later, the rocket underwent a static engine test (http://www.spaceflightinsider.com/organizations/space-exploration-technologies/falcon-9-static-test-fire-performed-at-lc-39a/).

DELIVERING SCIENCE

In addition to supplies for the station, CRS-10 will deliver several science experiments, including the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment (SAGE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVyNQXWxH24)) III instrument, the Microgravity Growth of Crystalline Monoclonal Antibodies for Pharmaceutical Applications experiment, and the Raven spacecraft navigation system, among others.

 SAGE III is a NASA Langley Research Center instrument that will be mounted on the Earth-facing side of ISS to study ozone in the atmosphere (http://www.spaceflightinsider.com/missions/iss/sao0ge-iii-provide-highly-accurate-measurements-atmospheric-gases/). The experiment is a follow-on to several previous experiments.

The original SAGE (https://www.nasa.gov/feature/sage-iii-to-look-back-at-earths-atmospheric-sunscreen) was launched to follow the Stratospheric Aerosol Measurement, or SAM, flown on the Apollo-Soyuz (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/apollo-soyuz/astp_mission.html) mission in 1975. SAGE II was a part of the Earth Radiation Budget Satellite, or ERBS (https://www.nasa.gov/centers/langley/news/factsheets/ERBE.html), which the crew of Space Shuttle Challenger deployed in 1984. SAGE III, designed for the ISS, is a near-duplicate of one launched aboard a Russian Meteor-3M (https://eoportal.org/web/eoportal/satellite-missions/m/meteor-3m-1) satellite in 2001.

CRS-10 also will bring materials to continue supporting a CASIS experiment monitoring the growth (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experiments/1972.html#results) of monoclonal antibodies in zero gravity. Monoclonal antibodies are molecules that attach to other specific molecules in the body to aid in fighting multiple human diseases, including cancer.

The CASIS experiment crystallizes a monoclonal antibody developed by Merck Research Labs (http://www.merck.com/mrl/). It will use microgravity to grow extremely high-quality crystals, which allow scientists to study the proteins' structure, improve drug delivery and manufacturing, and develop better methods for storing these molecules.

The Raven (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experiments/1995.html) investigation studies a real-time spacecraft navigation system that provides the sensors and guidance to see a target and steer toward it safely.

Raven also will enable future exploration missions near Earth and beyond, including satellite servicing and repair, asteroid exploration and redirect missions, and the Orion (https://www.nasa.gov/exploration/systems/orion/index.html) program.

A previous, single-sensor version of the Raven technology flew as the Relative Navigation Sensor (RNS) Payload on STS-125 (https://www.nasa.gov/pdf/331922main_sts125_presskit_050609.pdf), the fifth Hubble Space Telescope Servicing Mission.

The Raven visible camera is a repurposed flight unit from the STS-125 demonstration. It also reuses the flash lidar flown as part of the Sensor Test for RelNav Risk Mitigation (STORRM (https://ntrs.nasa.gov/archive/nasa/casi.ntrs.nasa.gov/20110013437.pdf)) demonstration on STS-134 (https://www.nasa.gov/pdf/538352main_sts134_presskit_508.pdf).

Over its two-year mission on the ISS, Raven will estimate the relative navigation state of the vehicles visiting the station each year in real time. As vehicles approach and depart from ISS, the instrument will monitor them in action and send the data to Earth.

NASA operators will then evaluate how Raven's technologies work as a system and make system adjustments to increase its tracking performance. The device is expected to monitor approximately 50 individual rendezvous or departure trajectories over the course of its mission.

Other science missions Dragon will carry include the following:
 

[/li]
• The Mayo Clinic (http://www.mayo.edu/research/centers-programs/center-regenerative-medicine) is leading a study to examine the growth of human stem cells (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experiments/1971.html) in microgravity. The Microgravity Expanded Stem Cells experiment cultivates human stem cells aboard ISS for use in clinical trials to evaluate their use in treating disease. Results would also advance future studies on how to scale up the expansion of stem cells for treating stroke and other conditions.
  

[/li]
• The University of Alabama-Birmingham (UAB (https://www.uab.edu/csb/faculty/article1)) is leading an investigation into the effects of microgravity on protein crystallization. Proteins are important biological molecules that can be crystallized to provide better views of their structure, which helps scientists understand how they work. Proteins crystallized in microgravity are often higher quality than those grown on Earth. The Effect of Macromolecular Transport on Microgravity Protein Crystallization (LMM Biophysics 1) experiment studies why this is the case, examining the movement of single protein molecules in microgravity.
• The Florida Institute of Technology (FIT (http://www.fit.edu/faculty/profiles/profile.php?value=553)) will test a charge injection device (CID) in space, attached to the exterior of ISS. A CID-based sensor can be used in astronomy experiments to directly image exoplanets and the distant stars they orbit. If proven successful, this sensor will offer a novel approach to differentiating objects in high-and-low contrast image collection scalable to large aperture space telescopes, airborne and undersea search and rescue, and NASA exploration.

Growth rate dispersion is a phenomenon in which seemingly identical crystals, produced under the same conditions, grow at different rates. This effort will study ground-based predictions of which crystals benefit from crystallization in microgravity, wh ere Earth's gravity does not interfere with their formation.

Previous studies suggest that microgravity impairs the wound healing process, and microgravity has been shown to have negative effects on skin health in astronauts. This project seeks to identify the molecular foundations of cutaneous (skin) wound healing that are vulnerable to spaceflight-induced stress, potentially revealing biologically relevant pathways for the next generation of wound healing therapies.

CRS-10 is scheduled to lift off at 10:01 a.m. EST (15:01 GMT) Feb. 18. The weather outlook (http://www.patrick.af.mil/Portals/14/documents/Weather/L-2%20Forecast%2018%20Feb%20Launch.pdf?ver=2017-02-16-074911-760) for the mission is iffy with a 40 percent chance of a violation of launch constraints. The primary concern a thick cloud layer.

Should a 24-hour delay occur, the weather improves slightly to a 30 percent chance of a weather violation. The primary concern for Feb. 19 is cumulus clouds and precipitation.

SpaceX has lowered the Falcon 9 rocket at pad 39A to load the final cargo into the Dragon supply ship.

The "late stow" payloads include mice going into orbit to help researchers study bone and muscle loss in microgravity, and fresh food for the space station crew.
The official launch weather forecast from the Air Force's 45th Weather Squadron now shows a 70 percent chance of favorable conditions for tomorrow's launch at 10:01 a.m. EST (1501 GMT).
An upper-level trough is predicted to move over the Florida peninsula this weekend.
"The clouds and isolated rain will steadily progress eastward through the day, although the most significant weather will not make it to the spaceport until after the launch window," forecasters wrote. "The primary weather concern for launch is the thick cloud cover associated with the upper-level trough."
The forecast calls for a few clouds at 3,000 feet, scattered clouds at 15,000 feet and broken clouds at 28,000 feet. Winds should be from the south-southeast at 10 to 15 mph, and the temperature at launch time will be around 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
If the launch is delayed to Sunday, the weather forecast also shows a 70 percent chance of acceptable conditions.

The Falcon 9 rocket is standing on top of launch pad 39A again as the countdown enters the final seven hours before liftoff.

SpaceX has elected to proceed with today's final countdown after engineers examined a helium link in the upper stage engine's spin start system, which will be used to reignite the engine for a de-orbit burn following deployment of the Dragon supply ship on the way to the International Space Station.

T-minus 2 hours. There have been no problems reported so far this morning, and everything remains on track for launch of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket at 10:01:32 a.m. EST (1501:32 GMT) from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Several major steps are coming up in the next hour, including the start of fueling of the rocket's two stages with RP-1 kerosene.

The densified fuel should begin pumping aboard the rocket around 8:51 a.m. EST.
There are several changes to the countdown that were first introduced on the Falcon 9's last launch Jan. 14 from California.

When it debuted a more capable Falcon 9 configuration burning super-chilled densified propellants in 2015, SpaceX shortened its launch countdowns to begin pumping fuel and oxidizer into the rocket just 35 minutes before blastoff. SpaceX's previous Falcon 9 countdowns followed a practice employed universally on cryogenically-fueled rockets worldwide, in which propellants are loaded aboard several hours ahead of launch.

The "load and go" countdowns caused headaches at first, leading to several aborts and delays before SpaceX gained experience with the practice early last year. The late fueling plan has also drawn questions from NASA safety advisors, who worry the procedure will endanger astronauts strapped into to SpaceX's Crew Dragon spaceships, which the company is developing to ferry people to and from the space station.

The timeline for today's countdown calls for RP-1 kerosene, chilled to around 20 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 6 degrees Celsius), to begin flowing into the two-stage rocket at T-minus 70 minutes. Liquid oxygen loading will follow at T-minus 45 minutes.

A poll of the SpaceX launch team is expected at T-minus 78 minutes to give a "go" for fueling operations.

Не ясен вопрос сколько БИМ на РН? Вполне возможно, что если и есть переход на бортовое питание при static fair , то это БИМ первой ступени, и он же используется при прокачке РМ второй ступени. ИМХО. По весам так выгоднее. И вполне возможно, что все было в порядке, а был небольшой скачок в цепях питания телеметрии РМ, что и исказило замеряемые параметры РМ системой автоматического контроля, такие прецеденты известны, необходим пересчет величин замеряемых величин с учетом колебаний напряжения источника электропитания.

Elon Musk says he personally called off Saturday's launch attempt [Updated]

Company says it is on track to attempt a second launch on Sunday.  
 Eric Berger (https://arstechnica.com/author/ericberger/) - 2/18/2017, 5:25 PM
 
 Noon ET Update: In a series of tweets on Saturday, SpaceX chief executive Elon Musk said he personally called off (https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/832995083519614976) the launch of a Falcon 9 rocket when the system was "green" for liftoff.

"All systems go, except the movement trace of an upper stage engine steering hydraulic piston was slightly odd," he tweeted (https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/832970849791537152). "If this is the only issue, flight would be fine, but need to make sure that it isn't symptomatic of a more significant upstream root cause. Btw, 99% likely to be fine (closed loop TVC wd overcome error), but that 1% chance isn't worth rolling the dice. Better to wait a day."

The "TVC" refers to thrust vector control, which helps steer the upper-stage engine. From these remarks it appears SpaceX will indeed try a second launch attempt on Sunday, during an instantaneous window that opens and closes at 9:38pm ET.

10:08am ET Update: At T-13 seconds, the SpaceX launch team scrubbed Saturday morning's attempt. Engineers working the launch weren't able to get comfortable with a "thrust vector control" issue on the rocket's second stage, which helps position the engine nozzle.

The company will probably try to launch again on Sunday at 9:38am ET, although a formal announcement is not likely until later on Saturday.

Original Post: NASA built two main launch pads during the Apollo program, 39A and 39B. The former was used for every Moon landing launch, except for Apollo 10, and most of the space shuttle missions. After the final space shuttle flight in 2011, NASA decided it needed just one of the pads for its future operations. So it leased Launch Complex 39A to SpaceX.

The company had intended to use Launch Complex 39A primarily for launches of its new Falcon Heavy rocket (https://arstechnica.com/science/2016/12/spacex-just-teased-a-photo-of-its-highly-anticipated-falcon-heavy-rocket/) and commercial crew missions. However, on September 1, 2016, a static fire test accident (http://arstechnica.com/science/2016/09/spacexs-falcon-9-rocket-apparently-blew-up-during-a-test-firing-thursday/) at SpaceX's other Florida launch pad, Launch Complex 40, caused severe damage to facilities there (repairs may be complete later this summer, according to company president Gwynne Shotwell). This pushed SpaceX to expedite its refurbishment of Launch Complex 39A and to expand its use for all launches from the East Coast.
 
Now, after modifications and upgrades, the historic pad is finally ready for its second life. The first SpaceX launch from the historic pad is scheduled for Saturday at 10:01am ET (15:01pm UK). A Falcon 9 rocket will boost a Dragon spacecraft carrying about 2.5 tons of food, water, and scientific experiments to the International Space Station. About 10 minutes after launch, the first stage of the rocket will attempt to land back at Landing Zone 1, near the launch pad. So far, SpaceX is two for two with land-based returns of its rocket. The webcast will begin at about 9:40am ET:
 
Weather conditions are improving for Saturday morning's launch, with forecasters now estimating a 70-percent chance of "go" conditions during the instantaneous launch window. SpaceX is still working a technical issue with "tiny" helium leak within the rocket's upper-stage, and a final decision may not be made until a minute before launch.

ЦитироватьSpaceX Scrubs CRS-10 Launch 13 Seconds Before Liftoff
 
Marcia S. Smith

SpaceX scrubbed the launch of its 10th Commercial Resupply Services (CRS) cargo mission to the International Space Station (ISS) today just 13 seconds before liftoff.  Two technical problems cropped up with the Falcon 9 rocket during the final phases of the countdown.  One was resolved, but the other -- involving a steering mechanism on the Falcon 9 rocket's second stage -- worried flight controllers who decided to wait until the problem was better understood.  Another launch opportunity exists tomorrow (Sunday) morning, but the company and NASA have not yet announced if they will try to launch at that time.

The Dragon spacecraft on this SpaceX CRS-10 or SpX-10 mission is carrying approximately 5,500 pounds of supplies and experiments to the ISS crew.  Among the cargo are 40 mice (jokingly called mousetronauts) that are part of a bone healing experiment (http://www.iss-casis.org/NewsEvents/OnStation/tabid/113/ArticleID/247/ArtMID/570/US-National-Laboratory-Research-Payloads-Se%20t-for-Launch-on-SpaceX-CRS-10.aspx) conducted by the U.S. Army Center for Environmental Health called Rodent Research IV.   They were loaded into Dragon yesterday as part of the "late load" cargo.   If the launch does not take place tomorrow, they and other late load items will have to be removed and replaced, so the launch could not occur again until Tuesday at the earliest.  However, Russia is launching  (http://www.spacepolicyonline.com/events/progress-ms-05-cargo-launch-to-iss-feb-2017-kazakhstan)its own cargo spacecraft, Progress MS-05, early Wednesday morning Eastern Standard Time, so NASA will have to determine how to interweave the schedules.

This will be the first SpaceX launch from NASA's Launch Complex-39A, which was used for Apollo missions to the moon and space shuttle launches.  NASA is leasing the pad to SpaceX.  SpaceX also leases launch pads from the Air Force at the adjacent Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS) and Vandenberg Air Force Base, California.  SpaceX's prior ISS cargo missions have launched from CCAFS Space Launch Complex-40, but it was badly damaged during a September 1, 2016 explosion  (http://www.spacepolicyonline.com/news/explosion-on-spacex-launch-pad-destroys-rocket-amos-6-satellite)that destroyed a Falcon 9 rocket and its Amos-6 commercial communications satellite payload.  SpaceX already was preparing LC-39A for launches of Falcon 9 and the Falcon Heavy, which is in development, so was able to rather quickly move this launch to LC-39A.   Whenever this launch takes place, SpaceX plans to land the Falcon 9 first stage at a different CCAFS launch complex for a third time.  SpaceX routinely tries to recover its first stages so they can be reused.  Sometimes they land on autonomous drone ships at sea and sometimes on land depending on the rocket's trajectory and how much fuel remains after deploying the payload into orbit.

During the countdown this morning, one problem developed with the autonomous flight termination system (FTS) being used as the primary range safety abort system for the first time on a SpaceX launch.  Range safety is an Air Force responsibility and the Air Force is transitioning to this new type of automated system for all launches.  SpaceX President and COO Gwynne Shotwell said at a press conference (http://www.spacepolicyonline.com/news/shotwell-to-gao-the-heck-we-wont-fly-before-2019) yesterday that they have been flying the automated system in "shadow" mode for some time and although they were directed by the Air Force to use it as the primary system for this launch "we would have done it anyway."   NASA Kennedy Space Center Director Bob Cabana said at the same press conference that NASA is in complete agreement  with the Air Force.   He views the autonomous system as safer and more reliable than the "human-in-the-loop" system that has been used historically.   Today's problem was a software issue that produced "inconsistent data," but was readily resolved.

The other problem was with a thrust vector control (TVC) system on the rocket's second stage.  The TVC system steers the rocket.  The SpaceX team tried to resolve the issue, but decided at T-13 seconds to abort the launch.   SpaceX President Elon Musk tweeted in response to a question that he was the one who made the decision.

Yesterday, a different problem arose.  A small helium leak was discovered in a second stage system that, if it did not work properly, the second stage could not have been deorbited after it placed the Dragon spacecraft into orbit.   Rocket stages can pose debris hazards in space if they are not deorbited.

SpaceX decided to proceed with the countdown and perform a helium spin-up pressurization test at T-1 minute before liftoff.  Musk said today that he did not see a connection between that leak and the TVC problem, but also did not rule it out.

The flow for this Falcon 9 has not been trouble-free as the mission encountered a number of delays caused by problems with the payloads and the launch vehicle in addition to some bad luck with Florida's afternoon thunderstorms. The latest scrub suffered by this launch vehicle - that was originally set to launch in May – was caused by a faulty thrust vector control actuator on Merlin 1D engine of the second stage of the Falcon 9. 

After the scrub on June 22, Falcon 9 returned to the hangar to undergo inspections and repairs to set up for a new launch date. The mission was pushed to July 14 to allow the U.S. Air Force to perform a regular maintenance activity on the Eastern Range that took about two weeks.

ЦитироватьThe suspect actuator on the second stage was removed and replaced and SpaceX conducted analysis of the problem that occurred with the system to fully understand its cause and ensure future occurrences can be avoided. Repairs performed on the Falcon 9 required an end-to-end re-test of the vehicle that was performed as part of the Static Fire Test.

Falcon 9's Static Fire is a mandatory test that is a part of every launch campaign and follows up on component level testing implemented by SpaceX that includes acceptance firings of each Merlin engine and tests of each assembled stage which are performed at SpaceX's test facility in McGregor, Texas. The first Static Fire of this Falcon 9 took place on June 13, but due to the repairs that were implemented, another test became necessary to avoid surprises during Monday's launch countdown.

T-minus 70 minutes and counting. The countdown auto sequence has officially started, kicking off the first steps to begin pumping propellants into the 213-foot-tall Falcon 9 at launch pad 39A.
RP-1 kerosene will be pumped into the two-stage Falcon 9 rocket first, followed by liquid oxygen chilled to near minus 340 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 206 degrees Celsius) at T-minus 45 minutes.

Launch Weather Officer Mike McAleenan informed the launch teams that today's outlook forecasts a 70 percent chance of acceptable conditions at launch time. The concern is for cumulus clouds and the possibility of having to fly through precipitation. A light system of precipitation that is moving into the area is expected to clear away from the launch site by 9:20 a.m., about 20 minutes before launch time from Launch Complex 39A.
