Cyclement Weather scrubbed a launch of SpaceX from Cape Canaveral, Florida on Sunday morning, but the commercial spaceflight company carried out another mission planned to be blast-for in the evening.
Conditions improved before PT (7:19 a.m. Florida time) succeeded in capturing both the launch time and the rare flight path from the Falcon 9 rocket and the landing from Florida.
It has become a regular occurrence to see one of SpaceX’s workhorse rockets explode and then to see a first-stage booster returning for a soft landing on an autonomous droneship in the Atlantic Ocean. In this mission, however, the Falcon 9 is shown in a barely refractory part in direct dry land.
About eight minutes after the lift after Fana, the rocket made a pinpoint landing at Landing Zone 1 (LZ-1), just seven miles from the launching pad.
Meanwhile, the engine of the second phase of the rocket launched Argentina’s Earth-observation satellite Socom 1B into orbit.
As part of A., SpaceX has landed just one more ground pad in the last 12 months. Re-mission to the International Space Station On March. Many factors landed on the SpaceX shore that on the droneship, there is an important aircraft route and how far the rocket is from the coast is different from the second stage rocket.
The Falcon 9 flew a rare polar route to the South Pole on Sunday. After launch, the Falcon 9 landed off the coast of Florida, making it possible to try to land on the ground pad. This marks the first orbital launch from Florida to use the South Polar Corridor since 1960.
The launch was originally scheduled for Thursday, but Delay in unrelated launch of spy satellite Cape Canaveral was hit by ripples that led to the postponement.
The voyage includes two small spacecraft, a commercial radar satellite called Sequoia and a weather data satellite named Nonoz-1.
The launch of the companion satellite Saocom 1A in 2018 is also featured Ground pad landing, But at Wendenberg Air Force Base in California. Initially the launch was planned to take place off the west coast, but eventually it moved to Florida and participated in the Thanksgiving delay. Nationwide epidemic of Kovid-19.
The Starlink mission that was scheduled for Sunday morning will now be the next SpaceX mission and will air on Tuesday at 6:29 p.m.
