Mission Details
TROPICS Flight 3: Coming to a Storm Near You
The Time-Resolved Observations of Precipitation structure and storm Intensity with a Constellation of Smallsats (TROPICS) mission will provide rapid-refresh microwave measurements over the tropics that can be used to observe the thermodynamics of the troposphere and precipitation structure for storm systems at the mesoscale and synoptic scale over the entire storm lifecycle. TROPICS comprises a constellation of CubeSats in three low-Earth orbital planes. Each CubeSat will host a high-performance radiometer scanning across the satellite track at 30 RPM to provide temperature profiles using seven channels near the 118.75 GHz oxygen absorption line, water vapor profiles using 3 channels near the 183 GHz water vapor absorption line, imagery in a single channel near 90 GHz for precipitation measurements, and a single channel at 206 GHz for cloud ice measurements.
Payloads: 2  Total Mass: 40 kg  Low Earth Orbit

Location
Māhia Peninsula, New Zealand

Launch Window Opens: May 16 NZST
Launch Site: LC-1

.
Hurricanes and tropical storms have a devastating effect on lives and livelihoods, so we're immensely proud to be entrusted by @NASA to launch the TROPICS missions, enabling scientists to accurately predict storm strength and give people time to evacuate and make plans.

Our latest weather data confirms upper level winds are strong and expected to remain that way at today's lift-off target.
The weather is looking better for tomorrow, so we're moving our @NASA TROPICS launch attempt to NET May 26, 03:30 UTC / 15:30 NZT.

Перенос. Сильный верховой ветер.

For TROPICS, the second stage is used to circularize the orbit and the Kick Stage will conduct a plane change maneuver to position the @NASA CubeSats at an inclination of 30 degrees – the best spot for monitoring the formation of tropical storms.
·
And that's second stage engine cut-off confirmed! The Kick Stage is now beginning its plane change maneuver for @NASA TROPICS.
We expect to receive confirmation of payload deployment at approx. T+47 mins, and we'll be back with updates then.

если верить Гюнтеру, https://space.skyrocket.de/doc_sdat/tropics.htm
TROPICS 02 и 04 погибли на Астре,
TROPICS 05 и 06 полетели на Электроне 08.05.2023
TROPICS 03 и 07 полетели этим пуском

Цитата: Pirat5 от 26.05.2023 13:29:59если верить Гюнтеру...
05 и 06 - уже не только Гюнтеру, но и  NSSDCA/COSPAR
эти два - будем посмотреть чуть позже.
