ЦитироватьMaxar's SSL ships first of three advanced communications satellites scheduled to launch on the SpaceX Falcon 9 this summer

Commercially driven advances help SSL customers to connect people and transform lives around the world
PALO ALTO, CA, June 21, 2018 /CNW/ - SSL, a Maxar Technologies company (formerly MacDonald, Dettwiler and Associates Ltd.) (NYSE: MAXR, TSX: MAXR), today announced it shipped the first of three satellites that SSL will deliver to the SpaceX launch base at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida over the next month. Driven by commercial advances, the three satellites will bring communications capability to connect people and transform lives around the globe.

Two more SSL communications satellites are scheduled to ship to SpaceX launch base over the next month including a second HTS for Telesat, Telstar 18 VANTAGE, ...

"SSL has a long legacy of leveraging its commercial mindset to provide satellite operators with spacecraft systems that address their requirements and enable global transformation," said Dario Zamarian, group president, SSL. "The cadence this month of shipping out three satellites for launch demonstrates our ongoing market leadership and commitment to quality, reliability, and performance."

Telstar 18 VANTAGE

Telstar 18 VANTAGE, the third HTS in Telesat's global fleet, will be located at 138 degrees East, an ideal position for connecting Asia to the Americas. It will replace and expand on the capabilities of Telesat's Telstar 18 satellite through its extensive C-band coverage of Asia, its Ku-band HTS spot beams over Indonesia and Malaysia, and its six additional Ku-band regional beams. These high performance beams will enable Telstar 18 VANTAGE to meet growing demand for mobility, enterprise networks and telecom services across the Asia region. As previously announced, Telesat has partnered with APT Satellite of Hong Kong in the design and procurement of this spacecraft, which APT calls Apstar-5C.

"Telesat has worked closely with SSL and the Maxar family of companies for many years and we are pleased to have collaborated with them on our newest Telstar VANTAGE high throughput satellites," said Dan Goldberg, President and CEO of Telesat. "These state-of-the-art spacecraft are going to provide important competitive advantages for our customers across the Americas and Asia. It's great news that Telstar 19 VANTAGE is now at the launch base and that Telstar 18 VANTAGE is nearly finished and in the queue to ship."

The balls used in the @FIFAWorldCup share a name with the next SSL-built satellite to launch -- Telstar 18 VANTAGE. The name Telstar 18 is a tribute to the first communication satellite to broadcast the @Adidas World Cup in 1970.

This week (Tuesday/Wednesday) we should expect the Static Fire test of SpaceX's Falcon 9 B1049.1 at SLC-40 ahead of the Telstar 18 Vantage/Apstar-5C launch late on August 25. Here's the booster arriving last month on the former Shuttle OTS provided to NSF by Jacques van Oene.

Waiting on a new launch date for the Falcon 9 launch of Telstar 18V. The Static Fire was booked on the Range for Wednesday, but that's been called off. In fact, the TEL hasn't even moved back into the SLC-40 HIF to pick up the booster, per no launch on the 25th/26th.

LIVE: запуск ракеты Falcon 9 со спутником связи Telstar 18 Vantage/APStar 5C
https://naked-science.ru/article/live/live-zapusk-rakety-falcon-9-so-6
26 августа в 06:33 (мск) должен состояться запуск ракеты Falcon 9 с геостационарным спутником связи для спутниковых операторов Telesat и APT Satellite.

Запуск ракеты-носителя произведут с Космического пускового комплекса — 40 мыса Канаверал. Ракета выведет аппарат Telstar 18 Vantage/APStar 5C на геопереходную орбиту.

 Он будет находиться в общем пользовании канадского спутникового оператора Telesat и гонконгского APT Satellite, которым владеет Китайская аэрокосмическая научно-техническая корпорация. Аппарат произведен компанией Space Systems/Loral (США). Он оснащен транспондерами Ku- диапазона и С-диапазона.

 Для запуска используют финальную версию ракеты Falcon 9 — Falcon 9 Block 5. Согласно ранее представленной информации, компания SpaceX постарается посадить первую ступень ракеты на автоматическую морскую платформу.

 Напомним, Falcon 9 — единственная частично многоразовая космическая ракета-носитель, находящаяся сейчас в эксплуатации.

If everyone in the area (some of you will be photographing the SLS ML rollout), just glance across to SLC-40 for us, please. Some claims there's a Static Fire today (potentially to beat the holiday weekend), but it would normally be next week. Worth a check.

поэтому ждём SF традиционно за 5 дней до пуска. может сегодня ночью?

Avert your gaze to SLC-40 as we await news of SpaceX's B1049.1 Falcon 9 booster arriving for the Static Fire test ahead of Telstar 18V/APStar 5C.

No sign yet, but likely later today.
