Blastoff! SpaceX launches next-gen US spy satellites from California

Ғылым және технология

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched the NROL-186 mission for the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) from California's Vandenberg Space Force Base on June 29, 2024 at 11:14 p.m. EDT (8:14 p.m. local California time; 0314 GMT on June 29). Full Story: www.space.com/spacex-nrol-186...
According to Space.com, the Falcon 9's first stage came back to Earth about 8 minutes after liftoff tonight as planned, landing on the SpaceX drone ship Of Course I Still Love You, which was stationed in the Pacific Ocean.

    I thought the first step of being a spy, and launching spy satellites, is to not tell people you're a spy, or launching spy satellites.

    It's very hard to conceal the launch itself, both visually and by radar. What can be concealed is the exact capabilities of the payload and the specific orbit.

    Ya'll should mention it's the flame front of "re-entry burn" which acts like a heat shield against atmospheric friction. Else, they would just Kamikaze and restart the engines only once, just to land. 😊

    I think SpaceX mentioned that they found atmospheric drag minimal on launch thru to the 1st minute (MaxQ) and they save on some weight and complexity with the grid fins not folding down. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong I watch alot of Space community videos and that's what I remember.

    Just happened to see this guy low on the horizon before it disappeared into the clouds from southern Arizona at dusk. Super cool! The first one I saw blew my mind because it was darker out and the sky was clear so you could see the plume being lit up by the sun super bright and it seemingly lasted forever. This one was much more muted because of more daylight plus the monsoons. But still, what a treat! So crazy to see something all the way out on the Pacific from a landlocked state like this. And also crazy that it happens so often I can just randomly catch it!

    Lovely. Nice to see, but shutting the main engines before second stage ignition isn’t to slow down the speed of the first stage, as the second stage is still connected and they travel at the same speed: that’s kinda what connected means. The second stage is only being pushed by the first stage. The drag on the second stage just has to be sufficient less than the drag on the first stage to allow the distance between the stages to exist and increase. Acceleration changed with MECO, the integration of acceleration is speed and the integration of speed is distance: ignoring constants. What changed was acceleration and what is desired is distance, speed is just in the middle. They are all monotonically related, but perhaps best to talk about what changed or what was desired.
