Anyone who has organized a trip for the whole family knows how much time and effort it takes. But if you’re the parent of a special needs child, you can pretty much double or triple that figure. So much preparation is required that getting out of the house, reaching your destination successfully and still managing to have a good time could be considered a small miracle. Nevertheless, families do it every day — and have the time of their lives, over and over again.

Big Boi, the lower-profile partner in Atlanta’s OutKast, hasn’t put out an official?CD since the group’s double-whammy breakthrough, “Speakerboxxx/The Love Below,” in 2003. Because the group issued a stop-gap soundtrack album for their movie “Idlewild” in 2006?- and since Big Boi has been issuing individual songs since 2008?- it might not seem like he’s taken that much time off. But the moment you hear the first official solo work from the man born Antwan Andre Patton, you’ll recognize what’s been missing.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: September 19, 2006The Atlantis astronauts will spend their early morning hours Wednesday using the shuttle’s robot arm to examine the ship from top to bottom and stem to stern for any signs of damage or missing hardware that might explain the source of a mysterious object that apparently floated away from the orbiter earlier today.Concern about that object prompted NASA to delay Atlantis’ return to Earth by 24 hours, from Wednesday to Thursday, to give the astronauts and engineers time to make sure the ship’s heat shield and other critical systems are healthy before committing the ship to a fiery re-entry.Shuttle Program Manager Wayne Hale said late today he’s hopeful whatever the object might be it’s not something that poses a threat to the shuttle or its crew. He said it may be something as simple as a plastic shim that shook out from between two tiles during pre-landing tests earlier today. This series of images from the flight day 3 inspections shows the shim seen on belly of Atlantis. Credit: NASASuch shims are used to make sure adjacent tiles are properly spaced during installation to account for expansion and contraction of the shuttle’s aluminum skin during broad temperature swings in space. A piece of shim stock was spotted during a heat shield inspection two days after launch sticking up from between tiles on one of Atlantis’ propellant feedline doors.Whether activation of the shuttle’s hydraulic system or jarring test firings of the shuttle maneuvering jets today could have shaken the shim free is not yet known. The shim does not pose any threat to the shuttle, but engineers don’t yet know if it is, in fact, what showed up in the downlinked television views. Likewise, it’s not yet known whether a second object spotted by commander Brent Jett that was seen floating away from the shuttle shortly after noon is a problem or not.But Hale said engineers have dismissed earlier concern about eight potential impact “events” detected by wing leading edge sensors. Analysis of timing data shows the sensors were simply responding to vibrations induced by the shuttle’s hydraulic system during a routine pre-landing flight control system checkout.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:MID-DAY BRIEFING BY SHUTTLE CHIEF VIDEO:SHUTTLE CAMERA SPOTS MYSTERY OBJECT VIDEO:HOUSTON TELLS CREW ABOUT THE OBJECT MORE: To make sure Atlantis’ heat shield is, in fact, intact, the astronauts will unlimber the shuttle’s robot arm for a five-hour overnight inspection. Cameras on the 50-foot-long robot arm should be able to spot any critical damage to the shuttle’s wing leading edge panels or heat-shield tiles that’s above the threshold need to cause problems.”This data is not like the very fine, almost microscopic inspections we’ve done of the (wing leading edge panels) before,” Hale said. “We think if this piece came off (the heat shield), this is going to be easy to see. So we can look further back, we can scan faster, we can do it with less delicate sensors. This is a standard television camera and by going down the line at a relatively slow pace you can see right away is there something big missing or is it generally in good shape? This inspection is appropriate for the concern that we might have something like that.”If poor lighting or other problems associated with oblique viewing angles develops, the astronauts will use the arm to pick up a 50-foot-long heat-shield inspection boom for a more thorough inspection or a focused look at a particular area of interest.If the boom has to be used, the long crew day could prompt NASA to delay re-entry until Friday to make sure the crew has time to rest up after a busy day in space. If no problems are seen during the robot arm survey, Atlantis likely will be cleared for landing Thursday at the Kennedy Space Center.The shuttle has enough on-board supplies to remain in orbit until Saturday. The weather forecast for Thursday and Friday calls for good conditions at the Kennedy Space Center.Here is an updated timeline of overnight activity (in EDT and mission elapsed time):09/19/06Tue 09:45 PM 10 10 30 Crew wakeupTue 11:45 PM 10 12 30 Robot arm survey09/20/06Wed 04:45 AM 10 17 30 Crew lunchWed 05:45 AM 10 18 30 Orbiter boom sensor system unberth (if needed)Wed 06:40 AM 10 19 25 OBSS survey (if needed)Wed 09:55 AM 10 22 40 OBSS berthing (if needed)Wed 10:30 AM 10 23 15 Robot arm powerdown (if needed)Wed 01:45 PM 11 02 30 Crew sleep beginsWed 09:45 PM 11 10 30 Crew wakeup09/21/06Thu 05:19 AM 11 18 04 Deorbit burn (orbit 186; if no problems seen)Thu 06:21 AM 11 19 06 Landing at the Kennedy Space CenterThu 06:55 AM 11 19 40 Backup deorbit ignition (orbit 187)Thu 07:57 AM 11 20 42 Backup landing opportunity”The crew’s going to wake up about (9:45 p.m.), we will let them get up and do the normal things they do in post sleep for about two hours, get breakfast, start their day, then we will start a survey of the vehicle with the remote manipulator system cameras that we think will take about five hours.”The goal of that survey is to get the general sense to make sure we’re not missing any large pieces of the thermal protection system. We don’t think we are, but this is to make sure. We think at the end of that survey we will be in a very good posture to believe we are good to come home.”However, we have built an option into the plan that after the crew’s lunch period they can get the orbiter boom sensor system out and spend another three hours with that additional boom looking at some hard-to-see areas.”With the OBSS attached to the robot arm, the astronauts have the ability to inspect virtually the entire shuttle, including all areas of the belly that would be of critical concern for re-entry. But the robot arm alone should be able to do the trick, Hale said. Anything large enough to cause problems is well within the detection of the arm’s cameras.The shim stock, for example, was easily visible during Atlantis’ final approach to the international space station Sept. 11. Camera views showed the reddish, rectangular piece of plastic sticking up at an angle between tiles on a door used to cover one of two external tank propellant feedline entrances in the belly of the shuttle.Engineers determined the shim posed no threat to the shuttle and would harmlessly melt or blow off during re-entry. As a result, NASA managers decided to simply leave it in place.”If we are satisfied at the crew’s lunch hour that we have a good inspection and we believe there’s nothing untoward, then we won’t get the OBSS out and we’ll come home normally (Thursday).”One of the things I think a lot of folks have talked about quite a bit as the most likely candidate is that piece of shim stock that we saw sticking out from the underside of the orbiter … on flight day three as we approached the international space station. It’s very likely the flight control system checkout provided the impetus, the shock, the vibration … that shook that loose and it floated out. We don’t know for sure, but it’s a highly likely candidate.”If, in fact, we go look and that piece of shim stock is missing, we had quite the interesting debate in the Mission Management Team about whether that in itself was sufficient and we could just quit there. The discussion came to the conclusion that no, since we’ve got the arm out and we can’t conclusively prove one way or the other that it was the shim stock, we ought to go complete the survey and make sure we don’t see anything else that would cause us any concern.”Engineers do not believe the mystery object was the result of an impact with orbital debris or a micrometeoroid. A high-energy impact would have imparted a higher departure velocity to any debris and other sensors likely would have detected the disturbance.Engineers also haven’t found any signs of unusual temperatures on the shuttle that might otherwise be expected if a thermal blanket or heat-shield tiles were missing.”We’re just doing what I would call due diligence here,” Hale said. “We have the capability to remain in orbit until Saturday, we have the tools to go off and make sure we are safe for re-entry so we have no reason, in fact, not to go take a look and put every concern to rest. And that’s what the plan is built to do and executing this plan we think we’ll have a good feeling about coming home on Thursday.”But if the inspections keep the crew up late, NASA managers may opt to “give them another day on orbit to rest up before the critical entry phase” to make sure “we have a well rested and prepare crew to fly the critical phases of entry and we don’t want to do that with folks who are tired or overly concerned about anything. So we’re going to put all that to rest.”Here is a list of all the available landing opportunities through Saturday at the Kennedy Space Center, Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., and Northtrup Strip at White Sands, N.M.

Synoptic Discussion: “Currently, the Bermuda high pressure ridge is located over the Florida Straits resulting in southwesterly flow over Central Florida. This pattern causes afternoon thunderstorms to migrate toward the east coast of Florida; therefore, Kennedy Space Center (KSC) will continue to have afternoon thunderstorms for the next two days. By launch day, the ridge will migrate to the north, causing easterly flow to set in over Central Florida. Morning coastal showers will affect KSC, and afternoon thunderstorms will migrate inland. Still, trough of low pressure over Central Florida could enhance offshore showers and thunderstorms, and upper-level winds from the east may cause anvils from thunderstorms offshore over the Gulf Stream to advect west toward the coast.”Our primary concerns for launch are anvil clouds from thunderstorms offshore and showers and thunderstorms within 20NM of the Shuttle Landing Facility (SLF).”
STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: September 5, 2006NASA managers are holding open the possibility of extending the shuttle Atlantis’ mission by at least one and possibly two days to give the crew time to carry out additional heat shield inspections and to handle any unexpected problems that might crop up, officials said today.Atlantis is scheduled for blastoff Wednesday at 12:29 p.m. on a space station assembly mission considered one of the most complex shuttle flights in recent memory. There are no technical problems of any significance at pad 39B and forecasters are predicting a 70 percent chance of good weather Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.”We really are working no issues, the vehicle’s in very good shape,” said LeRoy Cain, launch site chairman of NASA’s Mission Management Team. “I conducted the go/no-go poll to continue and everybody on the team is go and in good spirits. We’re ready to press forward from here.”Launch Director Mike Leinbach said engineers may move the launch pad service gantry away from Atlantis an hour or so early today to beat the onset of expected afternoon thunderstorms.”If we get it back before the weather sets in, that’s great,” he said. “If not, we’ll recover that time after the weather passes. Typically, we hold four or five hours in abeyance for RSS (rotating service structure) retract. So if we do get hit by the afternoon weather, that really shouldn’t pose a problem for us.”The Mission Management Team plans to meet at 1:45 a.m. Wednesday to assess the weather and give engineers clearance to proceed with loading Atlantis’ external tank with liquid oxygen and hydrogen rocket fuel.Fueling is scheduled to begin at 2:33 a.m. and if all goes well, commander Brent Jett, pilot Chris Ferguson, flight engineer Dan Burbank, Joe Tanner, Canadian astronaut Steve MacLean and Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper will begin strapping in around 9:09 a.m.Liftoff is targeted for 12:28:49 p.m. If Atlantis fails to get off the ground Wednesday, NASA can try again Thursday and Friday. After that, the flight will be delayed until after the Russians launch a fresh crew to the international space station Sept. 18 and bring the lab’s outgoing crew back to Earth Sept. 29. The next daylight launch opportunity or the shuttle after Friday is Oct. 26.With an on-time launching, Atlantis will dock with the space station Friday at 8:40 a.m. The next day, a new solar array truss will be attached to the outpost and the crew will stage the first of three spacewalks to make critical electrical connections, remove launch restraints and perform other activation tasks.As it now stands, a second spacewalk would be carried out the next day, followed by solar array extension the day after that and then a third spacewalk. But managers may insert an extra day between the first two spacewalks to let the crew carry out “focused inspections” of the shuttle’s heat shield based on whatever they see during an initial inspection the day after launch.”We don’t (currently) have that scheduled in the STS-115 timeline, but we know that is a likely possibility based on the flight day two or three inspections, that we’ll need to go back and look at some areas in more focused detail,” said shuttle Program Manager Wayne Hale. “There’s a hope that perhaps we won’t need to do that.”The more difficult case for the team to execute, both the astronauts in orbit and mission control, is two back-to-back EVAs. If we need to do a focused inspection, the thinking is … we would insert a day between the first and second EVAs. That becomes a somewhat lighter day for the crew and mission control, so it’s an easier day to stand by for.”What we’d really like to do is not have to do focused inspection, in other words, have such a clean vehicle that no inspections are required. Then we can save that day, bank it, and keep it (for) the end of the mission in case we run into any difficulties in the assembly process. Lifting off tomorrow or even the day after tomorrow, we really will have the capability to extend not one, but two days to the docked period so we would have the capability to handle both contingencies.”If an extension day is, in fact, inserted after the first spacewalk, the second spacewalk would occur on Sept. 11, the fifth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington.In other developments, Hale gave reporters an update on NASA’s work to develop safer ice-frost ramps on the shuttle’s external tank. The ice-frost ramps are buildups of foam insulation around brackets that support two pressurization lines and a cable tray. The insulation prevents ice from forming that could break off during launch and strike the shuttle.The IFRs are manually sprayed on and then sculpted on top of so-called acreage foam. Post-Columbia testing shows areas where foam is applied on top of other foam are susceptible to cracking due to differential thermal effects. Cracks, in turn, can lead to foam shedding during launch.The IFRs are officially classified as “probable/catastrophic,” meaning there is a 50-50 chance of a catastrophic failure over the 100-flight life of a space shuttle. It is the only system on the shuttle that is so classified and NASA is developing a near-term fix to reduce the chances of foam debris breaking away.”One of the options was to cover these little pieces of foam, about a pound or two pounds of foam at every bracket, cover them with a titanium shell, titanium being a metal that would retain the foam,” Hale said today. “Titanium has a low thermal conductivity, so the hope was they could fasten that to this tank and not have ice form on the outside.”They were unsuccessful in the environmental testing and the thermal testing to prevent ice from forming on the outside of the metal brackets. So the option (under development) is to reshape the foam, a reformulation of the foam to remove the SLA, or super-lightweight ablative foam core, and just use the standard foam.”The all-foam design “will be what we take to the wind tunnel tests later this month to make sure it will hold together,” Hale said. The new design is similar in appearance to an earlier design that broke apart during wind tunnel testing last spring. It was that failure that prompted NASA to stick with the current design, accepting the associated risk, while engineers developed an improved design.”To the casual observer, it’s not going to look a whole lot different than what we tried last April that didn’t hold together in the wind tunnel,” Hale said. “There are some differences internally in the way it’s put together and some small shape differences. The bottom line is, we want to reduce the footprint.”Every one of these 17 ice-frost ramps on the hydrogen part of the tank has a footprint of foam over foam, which is what we believe causes us concern with shedding of foam. So we have reduced the area of foam on top of foam, it’s a much smaller footprint, and the thermal analysis indicates we will be much less susceptible to the thermally induced cracking that occurs in the underlying foam region, which is the goal of this exercise.”This is an interim fix,” Hale said. “We’re coming back with a final fix in about eight more tanks after that. So we think we’ve got a good design, we’ll put it in the wind tunnel later this month to make sure we’ve got a good design. We’re going to have the critical design review before we start modifying the tank that’s in production at the Michoud Assembly Facility, which we hope to ship about mid December.”That tank, Hale said, will be used with shuttle mission STS-117 next February.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:MONDAY’S COUNTDOWN STATUS VIDEO:BIOGRAPHY MOVIE ON THE SIX ASTRONAUTS VIDEO:SHORT MOVIE PREVIEW OF ATLANTIS’ MISSION VIDEO:OUTLOOK ON UPCOMING STATION ASSEMBLY FLIGHTS VIDEO:CREW ARRIVES IN T-38 TRAINING JETS VIDEO:COMMENTS FROM CREW AFTER ARRIVAL VIDEO:NEWS BRIEFING ON RETURN TO PAD VIDEO:ATLANTIS ROLLBACK BEGINS VIDEO:OFFICIALS EXPLAIN LIGHTNING SCRUB VIDEO:SEE THE LIGHTNING STRIKE AT PAD B VIDEO:ANOTHER VIEW OF LIGHTNING STRIKE VIDEO:COMPLETE PREVIEW OF ATLANTIS MISSION VIDEO:DETAILS OF THE THREE SPACEWALKS VIDEO:MEET THE SIX ASTRONAUTS MORE: STS-115 patchThe official crew patch for the STS-115 mission of space shuttle Atlantis to resume orbital construction of the International Space Station.Choose your store: – – – Telescopes.comLargest selection and the best prices anywhere in the world.

Hale was asked if his willingness to consider amending a long-standing, if self-imposed, safety guideline in the face of perceived “schedule pressure” might send the wrong signal to the work force. He strongly disagreed and because this issue is so critical to the near-term shuttle launch schedule, here is his complete response:

Nonetheless, Boeing officials called the demonstration flight a success. The Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket ignites. Credit: Gene Blevins/LA Daily NewsThe 23-story rocket roared to life while enveloped in a hellish fire at pad 37B as free hydrogen from the three Rocketdyne RS-68 engines ignited. As the countdown reached zero, a dozen bolts that held the rocket to the pad for the past year popped and the 1.6-million pound vehicle thundered into a clear blue sky at 4:50 p.m. EST (2150 GMT).The highly complex launcher, which takes three so-called Common Booster Cores and strapped them together to create a powerful triple-body rocket, ascended atop three pillars of super-hot golden flame, flickering more than 20-stories long.Gulping three tons of propellant per second, the engines won the battle against gravity to blast the rocket away from Earth as the powerplants raged at full throttle. Nearly four minutes after liftoff, tracking cameras following the launch showed the starboard and port boosters shut down their engines and peel away from the rocket’s core. But the engine cutoff and subsequent booster separation came about 8 seconds prematurely, based on the advertised timeline.After the center booster finished firing and dropped away, the cryogenic upper stage of the Delta 4-Heavy ignited for what was supposed to be a 7-minute firing to reach an initial parking orbit around Earth. As the scheduled completion time for that burn came and went, there were indications that something was not right. The upper stage was being forced to fire much longer than anticipated to make up for a performance shortfall earlier in the launch.The unplanned overtime firing used fuel needed for later burns to reach geosynchronous orbit. The stage’s final burn Tuesday evening was supposed to last three minutes and 14 seconds to inject its cargo into the desired orbit, but the motor ran out of fuel before completing the maneuver.”I don’t know the exact, final orbit or how much shorter the final burn was. We’re going to look at the data and get those answers,” Boeing vice president for Expendable Launch Systems, Dan Collins, said in an interview Tuesday night.Collins said it was too early to say exactly what triggered the performance shortfall.”We’re going to have to dig in to know for sure. I’m going to hold off comment until we have a chance to look at it in the morning. It’s been a relatively long day. From the data we have seen, we are have high confidence that we are going to be able to track this down and make whatever adjustments are necessary. But you want to give it a day or so of looking at the data.”The Air Force awarded Boeing a $141 million contract to conduct this demonstration flight of the Delta 4-Heavy as a means of testing the rocket before critical national security payloads begin flying aboard the vehicle. Two operational launches are scheduled for August and December 2005 carrying the final Defense Support Program missile warning satellite and a classified National Reconnaissance Office payload, respectively.”I’ve spent the entire day with our customer…I can tell you we’ve got a very, very happy customer. We demonstrated all phases of this mission and we got a huge amount of data that allows us to move forward with high confidence towards the DSP mission next summer,” Collins said. “I can’t put words in the customer’s mouth but everybody in the Mission Director’s Center characterized the demonstration mission as really a truly great success. Our objective in this launch was to gather data and run through the entire mission profile. From that respect, we had a great day and a great flight. it is going take some data review for us to know exactly where we ended up.” The Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket flies downrange on the power of its three Rocketdyne RS-68 main engines. Credit: Gene Blevins/LA Daily NewsThis was the fourth launch of the Delta 4 rocket family, which Boeing created as part of the Air Force’s Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle program for next-generation vehicles to loft government payloads over the next two decades. The Delta 4, which has flown previously in its medium-lift configuration with just one Common Booster Core, is joined in the EELV stable with Lockheed Martin’s Atlas 5.Tuesday’s launch featured a 13,383-pound instrumented satellite mockup, called DemoSat, as the rocket’s main payload. The 6-foot tall, 4.5-foot diameter shiny aluminum barrel was filled with 60 brass rods for ballast. Sensors on the satellite collected data on the vibrations, temperatures and pressures during ascent, plus measure the shock felt at separation. Hitching a ride on the side of DemoSat was a pair of nanosatellites nicknamed Ralphie and Sparky. Built in collaboration between Arizona State University, New Mexico State University and the University of Colorado at Boulder, the canister-like nanosats were originally supposed to launch aboard a space shuttle mission in 2003. But the Columbia accident and grounding of the shuttle fleet led to the Air Force proposing an alternate route to orbit on Delta 4. The nanosats were deployed but their status was not immediately known. They were to operate for a day, conducting imaging, micropropulsion and intersatellite communications experiments before tumbling into the atmosphere.The Air Force decided to finance the test flight and not fly a real satellite after it became clear there wouldn’t be a commercial customer to purchase the inaugural launch.”The original strategy for demonstrating the Heavy capability was to utilize the perceived burgeoning commercial market. In 1998, this vehicle would have been a big player in what was projected back in those times. So the Air Force was in a great position. They were going to be able to benefit from the commercial launches,” Collins said. “When that commercial launch market started to go away and signs that it wasn’t going to allow the demonstration to happen, the Air Force stepped in and said ‘hey, we’ve got some important payloads to go. We want to get data before we put those on top of the rocket.’ So they came in and purchased an amendment to the development of the contract for this mission.” Besides future military missions, Delta 4-Heavy is being studied along with Atlas 5, space shuttle-derived concepts and completely new space vehicles to launch missions in NASA’s Vision for Space Exploration that aims to return astronauts to the moon and ultimately send the first humans to Mars. The Delta 4-Heavy is capable of delivering 48,000 pounds of cargo into low-Earth orbits, including that of the International Space Station, 28,000 pounds into geosynchronous transfer orbit used by communications satellites, 22,000 pounds for Trans Lunar Injection routes to the moon and 17,600 pounds on Mars-bound trajectories. “The biggest help we’re being at this point is by providing (NASA) information about the system, what its growth possibilities are, where its limitations are, so that they have the best set of data to match up with planning an overall exploration program,” Collins said of Boeing’s ongoing discussions with NASA. “We’re working hard with them but really in an information exchange situation and helping them get educated and smart on what the existing Delta capabilities are and then how Delta can grow.” Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:FROM LIFTOFF TO BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:THE DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH (SHORT VERSION) VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA RECORDS LAUNCH VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA SEES BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA CAPTURES FAIRING JETTISON AUDIO:LISTEN TO THE 68-MINUTE PRE-LAUNCH NEWS CONFERENCE VIDEO:ANIMATION PROVIDES PREVIEW OF A DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH VIDEO:RE-LIVE THE INAUGURAL DELTA 4 LAUNCH FROM 2002 VIDEO:ON-PAD FLIGHT READINESS ENGINE FIRING TEST VIDEO:TAKE TOUR OF LAUNCH PAD 37B Soviet SpaceFor the first time ever available in the West.

The Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket launches from Cape Canaveral on its test flight. Credit: Boeing photo by Carleton BailieThe three engines were snuffed out several seconds early after internal sensors were fooled into believing the liquid oxygen fuel supply had been expended. That left the rocket with a massive underspeed in which the vehicle’s upper stage could not overcome and resulted in a final orbit lower than planned.”The root cause of the anomaly has been identified as a fluid cavitation within the liquid oxygen feed system,” the Air Force said Wednesday in announcing the investigation’s findings.The cavitation, or bubbling, is a localized condition where the super-cold oxidizer changed from liquid to vapor within the feed lines running from the rocket’s tanks to engines.The Delta 4-Heavy is the largest member in Boeing’s next-generation rocket family. It takes three Common Booster Cores, each featuring a cryogenic main engine, and straps them together to form a vehicle capable of launching hefty cargos into space.Trouble on trip to spaceThe three Common Booster Cores were ignited during the final seconds of the December 21 countdown, generating 1.9-million pounds of thrust to propel the 23-story rocket away from pad 37B at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. It was meant to be a full dress rehearsal flight — with only a dummy payload aboard — to test the rocket before critical national security satellites begin using the vehicle later this year.About 50 seconds into flight, the center booster’s main engine throttled back to 58 percent thrust as a fuel conservation effort. The starboard and port boosters continued to operate at their maximum power setting of 102 percent thrust, each guzzling a ton of propellant per second. The strap-on boosters were scheduled to fire until T+plus 4 minutes, 5 seconds when the Rocketdyne-made RS-68 engine on each stage would cut off. About three seconds later, the 15-story starboard and port boosters, which provided the vast majority of thrust during the first four minutes of flight, would peel away from the center stage and tumble into the Atlantic Ocean below. But the engines shut down 8 seconds early after sensors temporarily indicated “dry” fuel conditions despite the stages having plenty of propellant remaining to accomplish the scheduled firing time. The sensors returned to “wet” readings after the shutdown sequence was already activated. Once the outer boosters were shed, the center stage’s RS-68 engine revved back to full throttle. Although the booster was identical to the outer strap-on stages, carrying the same propellant supply and engine package, it employed a more conservative fuel consumption strategy by the lower-throttle setting for the past three minutes and saved enough propellant to operate almost 90 seconds longer. But the same sensor “phenomenon” repeated on the center booster, causing its engine to shut down 9 seconds prematurely, according to investigators.

The upper stage ignited for the first of three firings planned over the 6-hour mission to geosynchronous orbit. That first burn of the Pratt & Whitney RL10 upper stage engine was supposed to last seven minutes to reach an initial parking orbit around Earth where a pair of university-built nanosatellites would be released into space. The rocket motor was designed to extend its firing time to compensate for any performance shortfalls experienced by the Common Booster Cores, and it did that. But even though the stage fired much longer than planned it still failed to reach a stable orbit, deploying the nanosats into a suborbital trajectory that took them into the atmosphere before completing a lap around the planet. The upper stage then reignited for its second scheduled burn, shaping the rocket’s track into a highly elliptical egg-shaped geosynchronous transfer orbit. It was in this orbit that the vehicle coasted for five hours to reach the high point about 19,600 nautical miles above the planet where the final engine blast would occur. This firing should have lasted three minutes to circularize the orbit. However, the stage’s precious fuel supply was greatly impacted by the extended maneuvers battling back from the Common Booster Core problem. The stage ran out of fuel about two-thirds of the way through the burn, leaving the instrumented satellite simulator payload — the rocket’s main cargo for this test flight — with an orbit featuring a high point of 19,600 nautical miles (36,400 km), low point of 9,600 nautical miles (19,000 km) and inclination of 13.5 degrees. The orbit’s low point was 10,000 miles off the target and inclination was 3.5 degrees higher than planned. Tracking down the glitchEach Common Booster Core has a large liquid hydrogen tank and a much smaller liquid oxygen tank for its RS-68 engine. The liquid oxygen tank is located at the top of each rocket stage, with a long feedline running down the booster’s side to reach the engine.”Analyses show that the cavitation originated at the entrance of the propellant feedline, where a filtration screen and turning elbow restrict the propellant flow as it accelerates leaving the tank. This feedline restriction has been present in all previous Delta 4 flights, but the unique combination of vehicle acceleration, liquid level in the tank, and propellant flow rate for this mission, reduced the fluid pressure enough to enable the creation of gaseous oxygen at this location as the tanks emptied,” Wednesday’s Air Force statement said.”Further draining of the liquid oxygen tank worsened the conditions at the feedline inlet, causing the cavitation effect to extend down the feedline until it reached the liquid depletion sensors and caused them to momentarily toggle ‘dry.’ This action was sensed by the flight computer, which initiated the sequence to throttle-down and shut off the main engines as it is programmed to do. Flight data shows that sufficient propellant remained in the tank to complete the planned first stage burn time.”A Fault Tree analysis was used to examine potential causes of the problem, including propulsion, avionics, structures and flight environments. Forty-nine of 50 Fault Tree branches were “closed” after being ruled not credible.”All closures were thoroughly documented, citing multiple sources of supporting evidence drawn from flight data, a range of focused technical analyses and computer simulation results,” the Air Force said.Other propellant phenomena like sloshing and “vapor pull-through” were analyzed and determined to be highly unlikely.”This investigation has followed a deliberate process to ensure no potential causes were missed,” said Maj. Rod Houser, investigation lead for the Air Force. “Our attention is now focused on the final open branch of the Fault Tree dealing with cavitation within the liquid oxygen feed system.” The Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket launches from Cape Canaveral on its test flight. Credit: Boeing photo by Carleton BailieEngineers have spent the past two months examining various scenarios to explain the cavitation occurring in the region near the engine cut-off sensors.”Our team used computer models to simulate the flow in the liquid oxygen feedline between the bottom of the propellant tank and the engine cut-off sensors, approximately five feet downstream,” said Mark Baldwin, Boeing’s Delta propulsion analysis manager.”The team enhanced its simulation models incrementally to include the more complex internal features of the liquid oxygen tank and feedline. Simulation runs have been completed with the higher fidelity models, resulting in an increasingly accurate simulation of the flow conditions experienced during the Heavy demonstration flight. These conditions correlated well with measurements taken by the sensors onboard the vehicle.”Boeing is examining options to fix the bubbling problem. Throughout this month, additional computer simulations are being performed to fully analyze the liquid oxygen flow between the bottom of the tanks and the engine cut-off sensors to assist in picking and verifying the corrective actions, the Air Force said.”Boeing is evaluating future missions across its Delta 4 family of launch vehicles so that adequate margin for cavitation exists under the worst case conditions,” a company spokesman said. “Cavitation margin adjustments, if required, can be made by changing the flight profile to throttle the RS-68 earlier, and can also be made by pressurizing the oxygen tank to a higher ullage pressure later in flight.”Boeing is scheduled to launch the GOES N civilian weather satellite from Cape Canaveral atop a Delta 4-Medium rocket on May 4. A Medium vehicle uses just one Common Booster Core — a configuration that has flown three times without fault.That will be followed by the first Delta 4 launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, also flying in the Medium version. It is targeted for late August to loft a classified National Reconnaissance Office Payload.The first operational Delta 4-Heavy with a real satellite payload is planned for late October when the 23rd and final Defense Support Program missile-warning spacecraft is launched directly into geostationary orbit.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:SPACEFLIGHT NOW LAUNCH PAD CAMERA 1 VIDEO:SPACEFLIGHT NOW LAUNCH PAD CAMERA 2 VIDEO:FROM LIFTOFF TO BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:THE DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH (SHORT VERSION) VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA RECORDS LAUNCH VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA SEES BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA CAPTURES FAIRING JETTISON AUDIO:LISTEN TO THE 68-MINUTE PRE-LAUNCH NEWS CONFERENCE VIDEO:ANIMATION PROVIDES PREVIEW OF A DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH VIDEO:RE-LIVE THE INAUGURAL DELTA 4 LAUNCH FROM 2002 VIDEO:ON-PAD FLIGHT READINESS ENGINE FIRING TEST VIDEO:TAKE TOUR OF LAUNCH PAD 37B Columbia ReportA reproduction of the official accident investigation report into the loss of the space shuttle Columbia and its crew of seven.

But that gap will be closed this week when the modernized replacement makes its California debut.Space Launch Complex 6 completely encloses the Delta 4-Heavy rocket during pre-flight preparations. Credit: Justin Ray/Spaceflight NowThe Delta 4-Heavy rocket, made by United Launch Alliance, is scheduled for liftoff Thursday at 1:08 p.m. PST (4:08 p.m. EST; 2108 GMT) from Space Launch Complex 6.The booster is carrying a massive spy satellite like the ones the Titans used to deploy before those rockets were in 2005.When the country’s lead agency for operating intelligence-gathering spacecraft, the National Reconnaissance Office, ordered another big satellite, plans were set in motion to bring the Delta 4-Heavy to Vandenberg. The western spaceport is the nation’s launch site for sending surveillance craft into polar orbits to observe nearly all of the planet’s surface.The SLC-6 pad at Vandenberg, built to support the space shuttles, was ideal for accommodating the Delta 4-Heavy. But engineers liken the complicated machine to launching three rockets at once, and an enhancement to the ground servicing systems was necessary.”We spent the good part of three years…upgrading the launch pad and the base infrastructure, in total more than $100 million in infrastructure improvements,” said Lt. Col. Brady Hauboldt, the Air Force launch director and Vandenberg’s 4th Space Launch Squadron commander.”Most recently over the past year we’ve completed all pad activation and first article testing with that launch vehicle in place to ensure missionsuccess.”The Delta 4-Heavy stands atop SLC-6. Credit: Justin Ray/Spaceflight NowThe Delta 4-Heavy is created by taking three Common Booster Cores — the liquid hydrogen-fueled motor that forms a Delta 4-Medium’s first stage — and strapping them together to form a triple-barrel rocket, then adding a cryogenic upper stage. The combined punch can propel about 50,000 pounds of cargo into polar orbit.Supplying those four stages with the supercold fluids and commodities, keeping the payload comfortable with conditioned air and the special hardware for servicing the 23-story rocket were among the changes made to the site.After hosting a pair of medium-class Delta 4 rocket launches in and , approval for the Heavy modification work came on December 1, 2006, kicking off a design and analysis period that went to July 2007. Ordering of equipment, fabrication and assembly, the installation and the testing stretched from March 2007 to July 2010.”(SLC-6) wasn’t sized or configured to support the Heavy variant, and that decision goes back quite a few years. In fact, I was at the Pentagon when those decisions were being made. It’s ironic now that I get to come back and implement them,” said Hauboldt.Tail service masts await installation on the launch table in this picture taken in June 2008. Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight NowMore than 835 parts were bought from over 280 suppliers and 35 contractors, and 370 United Launch Alliance employees and hired labor worked on the pad upgrade, according to Jim Boyle, ULA site director at SLC-6.”We’re modifying existing systems that were already here, just adding the capacity in many cases to handle three-of-things, three Common Booster Cores. But it was an extensive effort, took over three years,” said Boyle.”We had very to little to do with the actual structure of the pad — the concrete, the launch table. It was mostly being able to provide the ability to service.”The specific changes included:Installing box-shaped structures, called tail service masts, to route power, data, gases and the vacuum-jacketed liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen lines to the bottoms of the outboard rocket stages.Helium and gaseous nitrogen supply and system upgrades to feed the bigger rocket.Propulsion system mods in the pad’s pneumatics room and launch mount.Enhancing the pad’s air conditioning unit and the environmental control system ducts to the rocket.Equipping the launch pad’s lower swing arm with umbilicals to interface with the outboard boosters.Adding an upward extension to the top swing arm for providing air conditioning to the nose cone and payload.Adjusting access platforms inside the mobile service gantry.Installing a backup generator to power the extra ground support equipment.Equipping the pad with cooling water and hydrogen burnoff sparklers for the outboard boosters’ main engines.And, late in the program, an auxiliary liquid oxygen storage tank was added to give the launch team a capability for multiple countdowns without needing to replenish reserves.The other substantial effort involved analyzing the sound and rumble the Delta 4-Heavy will created during its slow ascent off the pad.”There’s been some extensive vibration — noise — analysis done to look at how the unique Vandenberg terrain effects the payload and the launch vehicle electronics,” Hauboldt said.”Launching a Heavy out of here makes a lot more acoustics, makes a lot more vibrations than a Medium, so we had to go make sure that not only the pad but the rocket could handle those different environments,” Boyle added.The rocket was constructed at ULA’s factory in Decatur, Alabama. In mid-August 2009, the three booster cores and upper stage were loaded into ocean-going Delta Mariner vessel for a month-long, 4,000+ mile trip through the Panama Canal and around to Vandenberg.After late-September 2009 at the harbor once envisioned for receiving the space shuttle fuel tank barge, the first West Coast Heavy rolled onto California soil and moved up the road to SLC-6 over a three-day period.The Horizontal Integration Facility at the complex is the garage-like hangar were the rocket stages were attached together and tested to verify the Heavy was prepared for the launch pad.While that assembly work was going on, pad-readiness tests were being run to ensure the site would give the rocket a warm welcome in early 2010.The Delta 4-Heavy rolls to the SLC-6 pad in January 2010. Credit: ULA videoRiding horizontally on a motorized hauler, the 184,000-pound rocket was where hydraulic pistons pushed the vehicle atop the pad on January 29.The rest of the year was spent doing exhaustive testing to operate pad systems with the rocket and uncover problems that could be fixed before the real countdown on launch day.”It was an incredibly busy summer, practically like having several otherlaunch campaigns going simultaneously,” Hauboldt said.”It included two tanking tests and numerous wet dress rehearsals to get us comfortable with the systems and configurations. We also had several crew rehearsals to ensure the team was similarly prepared for day of launch. We’ve exercised our new gaseous nitrogen plant extensively. We’ve had logistics demonstrations, security demonstrations. The 30th Space Wing has really gone above and beyond to make sure that everything is in place and ready to go for day of launch.”So now the stage is set for liftoff on Thursday, a critical mission carrying a clandestine satellite for the National Reconnaissance Office and the country’s intelligence analysts.”Bringing a new launch vehicle configuration into Space Launch Complex 6isn’t as simple as stacking a new rocket. Although it’s a Delta 4, the Heavyconfiguration required substantial modification and resizing to handleessentially three rockets on the pad at the same time,” Hauboldt said.”This Delta 4-Heavy is the first-of-its-kind national capability here at Vandenberg. We don’t currently have this ability to launch any heavy satellites into polar orbit. The Delta 4-Heavy upgrades that we’ve done at SLC-6 as well as bringing the rocket out here allow us to put satellites of that type into orbit to support our downrange customers.”John Glenn Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The historic first orbital flight by an American is marked by this commemorative patch for John Glenn and Friendship 7.Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is available in our store.

Its level of complexity causes engineers to liken it to launching three rockets at one time. And its fiery blastoffs create a dazzling yet heart-in-your-throat sight. Now, the mammoth Delta 4-Heavy has entered operational service with Saturday night’s successful ascent carrying a critical surveillance satellite. Credit: Ben Cooper/Spaceflight NowTowering more than 230 feet tall and packing nearly two million pounds of thrust from its three hydrogen-fueled main engines, this rocket is built to loft big payloads. And the roomy nose cone offers spacious accommodations for exceptionally large spacecraft.The Delta 4-Heavy’s characteristics make it well suited for launching a Defense Support Program (DSP) missile warning satellite into geosynchronous orbit 22,300 miles above the planet.But in its lone previous flight three years ago, the Heavy encountered an unexpected problem within its fuel lines, causing the engines to snuff out a few seconds early and leaving the rocket well short of the intended orbit. That December 2004 launch was only a test, an Air Force-financed demonstration flight designed to uncover the unknown flaws in the system before expensive and vital national security payloads were entrusted to the big booster.”It’s always better to find a problem than to have a latent and yet-to-be-discovered (problem). That’s part of why we considered the Heavy demo such a success. It was a very subtle problem, but we found it and we fixed it,” said Col. Jim Planeaux, the Delta group commander at the Space and Missile Systems Center.The test rocket was outfitted with vast amounts of data-collecting sensors to understand all aspects of the ascent, leading to some other changes before the first operational launch. Credit: Ben Cooper/Spaceflight Now”We took a lot of readings on accelerations, vibrations, acoustics in the various compartments of the vehicle. In a few cases (we) determined that they were higher than we expected and we either modified the hardware slightly or moved some of the components to a more benign environment. We finished all of those (modifications) late last year, and we’re very comfortable with the vehicle we’ve got.”Rocket-maker United Launch Alliance and the Air Force, both confident that the Heavy was ready for a real mission, fired off the rocket from Cape Canaveral in Florida at 8:50 p.m. EST (0150 GMT) Saturday evening.Hidden inside the long metallic nose cone rode the Defense Support Program 23 spacecraft, the last in a series of eye-in-the-sky satellites designed to spot enemy missile launches and nuclear explosions. DSP satellites have been flying since November 1970, rocketing into orbit aboard various versions of now-retired Titan rockets and the space shuttle. This final one — DSP 23 — has been waiting more than two years for the new Heavy to hoist it into space.The Delta 4-Heavy is created by taking three Common Booster Cores — the liquid hydrogen-fueled motor that forms a Delta 4-Medium’s first stage — and strapping them together to form a three-wide rocket, and then adding the powerful upper stage.Each 15-story booster core features a Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne RS-68 main engine that generates 650,000 pounds of thrust while burning supercold liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen propellants. The cryogenic upper stage has the Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne RL10B-2 powerplant. Credit: Ben Cooper/Spaceflight NowAs the countdown entered the final seconds, liquid hydrogen rushed through the three RS-68 engines and then the powerplants roared to ignition. A massive cloud of fire raced up the rocket, creating a visually awesome but terrifying display. A dozen explosive bolts holding the vehicle to pad 37B detonated as clocks struck zero to free the Heavy to begin climbing as three launch pad swing arms pulled back.Data from the test flight showed the ignition fireball created hot temperatures around the nose cone, leading to another change for the DSP satellite launch.”We’ve done a lot of thinking about it since (the test). It does get pretty hot up around even the payload vents. So to mitigate that, we’ve added some modifications to this particular payload fairing to essentially keep the plume out as the vehicle rises and still allow the payload compartment to vent properly,” Planeaux said.”When you’ve got a payload that’s very sensitive to contamination, we had to go through some fairly elaborate measures to ensure we were well protected there.”The three identical main engines, the world’s largest hydrogen-fueled rocket engine and each capable of generating 17 million horsepower, propelled the vehicle into a clear night sky with three distinct red-hot plumes trailing more than 200 feet long.See our image collections:About 50 seconds into flight, the center Common Booster Core’s engine was throttled back to its minimum power level of 57 percent thrust to conserve fuel that became important later. The starboard and port boosters continued firing at full throttle — 102 percent thrust — through the launch’s first four minutes before emptying their liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen propellant tanks and shutting down the RS-68 engines. The boosters peeled away and plummeted into the Atlantic Ocean.Once the outer boosters were shed, the center stage finally throttled back up to 102 percent for more than a minute of propulsion, consuming that fuel supply saved during the period of reduced thrust. The stage was jettisoned about five minutes, 40 seconds after liftoff, leaving the rocket’s upper stage and payload to continue the journey to orbit.About 13 minutes into flight, the upper stage completed its first burn to achieve an initial parking orbit above Earth and entered an hour-long coast mode until it reached the extreme western Pacific Ocean northeast of Australia. That is where the RL10 engine was re-ignited to reach a geosynchronous transfer orbit stretching 22,000 miles at its high point.The stage then coasted in this orbit, eventually reaching the apogee where the RL10 engine was fired for a third time starting at T+plus 6 hours, 10 minutes. The three-minute burn circularized the orbit over the equator off the western coast of South America.At 3:09 a.m. EST, the 5,179-pound DSP satellite was released from the Delta 4-Heavy rocket to complete the launch.”Last night’s successful countdown and flight culminate a tremendous amount of hard work by the entire Air Force launch team and our industry partners. Congratulations to all who made this challenging and spectacular launch of the DSP 23 satellite a reality,” Planeaux said. Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight Now”As the first operational launch of a Delta 4 Heavy Lift Vehicle, it marks a major milestone accomplishment for the EELV program and for assured access to space.”Bringing the Heavy version of the Air Force’s Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle family into operational service, the military has now successfully replaced the retired Titan rocket fleet for deploying large satellite payloads.”This success highlights the continued maturization of our EELV program,” said Brig. Gen. Susan Helms, 45th Space Wing commander at Cape Canaveral.Another Heavy is next up on the Delta 4’s launch schedule. An April liftoff is planned from Cape Canaveral to deliver a classified spy satellite into orbit for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office.Officials plan a five-month gap between Saturday’s flight and the subsequent launch while engineers complete a thorough review of data.”That has a five-month standoff to digest all of the analysis and redo all of the loads for the payload. But we look forward to not taking any more time than that to launch NROL-26,” said Mark Wilkins, United Launch Alliance vice president for Delta Programs.Another secret NRO launch using a Heavy from the Cape is planned in 2009, followed no sooner than 2010 the first Heavy flight from California’s Vandenberg Air Force Base with another NRO payload. Outfitting of that West Coast pad to install equipment for the larger rocket has begun.For more on Defense Support Program 23 satellite launched Saturday night, see our separate story .Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:WIDESCREEN MOVIE OF LAUNCH SHOT FROM PRESS SITE VIDEO:DELTA 4-HEAVY ROCKETS LAUNCHES WITH DSP 23 VIDEO:PRE-LAUNCH NEWS CONFERENCE VIDEO:ANIMATION OF DSP SATELLITE VIDEO:DSP 23 SATELLITE IS TRANSPORTED TO PAD 37B VIDEO:THE DSP 23 SPACECRAFT MOUNTED ATOP ADAPTER VIDEO:FIRST DELTA 4-HEAVY FROM LIFTOFF TO BOOSTER SEP.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: July 12, 2014 After a string of delays cause by stormy weather, conflicts with other flights and an engine test failure, Orbital Sciences Corp. is readying an Antares rocket for launch Sunday on a voyage to deliver 1.7 tons of cargo and supplies to the International Space Station, the company’s second commercial resupply mission. Photo of the Antares rocket on launch pad 0A at Wallops Flight Facility. Credit: NASA/Bill IngallsWith forecasters predicting a 90 percent chance of acceptable weather, the two-stage 133-foot-tall Antares was scheduled for launch from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport at NASA’s Wallops Island Flight Facility on the Virginia coast at 12:52 p.m. EDT (GMT-4) Sunday, the opening of a five-minute launch window.”We’re very proud and pleased to be back here at Wallops again, conducting this operation leading up to the launch of Antares,” said Frank Culbertson, a former shuttle commander who serves as Orbital’s vice president and general manager of advanced programs. “We’re real proud to be part of the team that is keeping the station flying and providing the crew with the cargo and research they need.” Orbital engineers had hoped to launch the rocket and its company-developed Cygnus cargo ship Friday, but the flight was delayed through the weekend by severe weather that interrupted ground processing.Assuming an on-time launch Sunday, the uncrewed Cygnus capsule will reach the space station early Wednesday, pulling up to within about 30 feet and then standing by while the lab’s robot arm locks on to pull it in for berthing at the Earth-facing port of the forward Harmony module.The spacecraft is loaded with 3,669 pounds of crew supplies, including food for the lab’s crew, spare parts and other station hardware, science equipment, spacewalk components and computer hardware.The science equipment includes a variety of student experiments, supplies for NASA’s Human Research Facility, igniters for the station’s combustion test facility and a Japanese experiment that will study Marangoni convection, a type of heat transfer between solids and liquids that could lead to improvements in microgravity life support systems.Also on board: 28 small satellites — nanosats — built by Planet Labs of San Francisco, part of a growing fleet of “Dove” spacecraft being tested in a commercial venture to continuously photograph the Earth. Four other nanosats also are on board, including one built by NASA to test techniques for returning small experiment samples to the ground. The Orb-2 mission patch. Credit: Orbital Sciences Corp.The Cygnus spacecraft will remain attached to the station for about a month. After it is unloaded and re-packed with trash and no-longer-needed equipment, the cargo ship will be released to burn up in Earth’s atmosphere. Before re-entry, Orbital flight controllers plan to test new rendezvous equipment and procedures intended to allow Cygnus capsules to remain aloft for extended periods, enabling research after the spacecraft leave the station.This will be Orbital’s second operational station resupply mission — Orb-2 — under a $1.9 billion commercial contract with NASA calling for eight flights through 2016 to deliver some 40,000 pounds of supplies and equipment. SpaceX holds a similar $1.6 billion contract covering 12 resupply flights to deliver 44,000 pounds of cargo.SpaceX has carried out three resupply missions to date with a fourth on tap in September and a fifth in December. Orbital plans its third resupply flight in October with two more on tap next year.This week’s Antares launching originally was planned for May, but the flight was delayed to early June, at NASA’s request, because of conflicts with other station traffic. Then, on May 22, a first-stage engine being test fired for an Antares/Cygnus resupply flight next year suffered a catastrophic failure 30 seconds into a planned 54-second burn. The engine was destroyed, and the planned June flight was put on hold pending an investigation.The Antares first stage is powered by two AJ26 engines supplied by Aerojet Rocketdyne. The engines originally were developed for the Soviet Union’s ill-fated N-1 moon rocket. When that program was cancelled after multiple launch failures, the engines were stockpiled and in the 1990s, Aerojet bought about 40 of the powerplants and modified them for use aboard U.S. rockets.The May 22 test failure “obviously sparked a very thorough investigation led by Aerojet Rocketdyne, our engine supplier, supported fully by Orbital with a lot of help by NASA,” said Mike Pinkston, Orbital’s Antares program manager. “That was a lengthy process and the primary source of the delay from the early part of June to where we are today.”The failure investigation is not yet complete and no details have been provided to the media. But the engines scheduled for use Sunday were cleared for flight after internal boroscope inspections and a review of data collected during their own test firings earlier.”We saw what we needed to see with that and with the fact that these engines successfully passed the same acceptance process, not only here in the United States, but also twice after original manufacture in Russia,” Pinkston said. “They’ve got a lot of test time on them. We’ve got a lot of confidence that the two engines on Orb-2 are ready to go.”Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is now available in our store.

The Cygnus spacecraft is released from the International Space Station. Credit: NASA TVThe automated solar-powered spaceship disengaged from the space station’s robotic arm at 1141 GMT (6:41 a.m. EST) as the duo sailed 260 miles over the South Atlantic Ocean east of Argentina.Astronauts Mike Hopkins and Koichi Wakata monitored the activities from inside the space station’s windowed cupola module. Hopkins was assigned the job of detaching the robot arm from Cygnus.Moments later, astronauts inside the space station sent commands for the Cygnus spacecraft to fire thrusters and fly away from the complex. It cleared the space station’s “keep out” sphere, an imaginary safety zone around the outpost, a few minutes after separating from the robot arm.The Cygnus vehicle’s pressurized logistics module is packed with bags of trash and unnecessary gear loaded by the space station’s six-person crew. Like cargo vehicles supplied by Europe, Japan and Russia, the Cygnus spacecraft is designed to burn up during re-entry, disposing of garbage over a remote stretch of the South Pacific Ocean.Re-entry between New Zealand and South America is scheduled for around 1820 GMT (1:20 p.m. EST) Wednesday after a pair of braking maneuvers to slow the Cygnus spacecraft’s velocity and lower its orbit.The last day of the Cygnus mission will be controlled from Orbital Sciences’ headquarters in Dulles, Va.The Cygnus spacecraft is on the first of eight operationally cargo delivery flights under a $1.9 billion commercial resupply contract between Orbital Sciences and NASA. The space agency has a similar deal with SpaceX for a dozen missions worth $1.6 billion.The mission delivered nearly 2,800 pounds of supplies to the space station when it arrived Jan. 12, three days after launching from Wallops Island, Va., aboard an Antares rocket.The deliveries included an ant colony for students to observe how the ants behave in space, an experiment in drug-resistant bacteria, and investigations into how liquids slosh inside containers in microgravity and the behavior of fires in space.The scientific complement of the Cygnus spacecraft’s cargo load amounted to nearly 1,000 pounds, the biggest delivery of experiments to the space station by one of the two U.S. commercial logistics vehicles.Orbital Sciences achieved a Cygnus demonstration mission to the space station last year before proceeding into the contracted flights.SpaceX and Orbital Sciences developed their resupply freighters and launch vehicles with public and private funding through a public-private partnership with NASA, which turned to the commercial sector to haul experiments and supplies to the space station after the retirement of the space shuttle.SpaceX plans a launch of its Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spaceship from Cape Canaveral to the space station March 16. Orbital’s next cargo flight is due to launch around May 1 aboard an Antares rocket from Virginia.Follow Stephen Clark on Twitter: .STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

Credit: NASA TVThe Wideband Global SATCOM 4 spacecraft, better known as WGS 4, will ride a United Launch Alliance Delta 4 rocket into orbit Jan. 19 from the Florida spaceport’s pad 37B.Liftoff will be possible during a 93-minute window extending from 7:38 to 9:11 p.m. EST (0038-0211 GMT).Already tucked inside the rocket’s five-meter-diameter, 47-foot-tall nose cone, a process that was accomplished before the holidays while still at the spacecraft preparation facility in Titusville, WGS 4 was driven on a specialized transporter across the river, through Kennedy Space Center and over to Complex 37 in the frigid predawn darkness Wednesday.After entering the pad and climbing the ramp to the launch site around 3:30 a.m. EST, the motorized hauler was parked on the backside of the mobile service gantry to complete the 25-mile trip.There, the pad’s crane lowered down to take hold of the payload for carefully hoisting the 6.5-ton satellite into the tower and positioning it atop the rocket’s second stage for attachment.File image of Delta payload ready for hoisting into the pad tower. Credit: NASAThe milestone move kicks off the final two weeks of the pre-launch campaign, which will include integrated testing between the Delta 4 rocket and WGS 4 spacecraft, closeouts of the vehicle compartments for flight and a series of readiness reviews to verify all systems are “go” for blastoff.It will be first rocket launch from Cape Canaveral of the new year and begins the Delta 4 rocket’s 2012 that is dedicated to military service with as many as five flights scheduled from both Florida and Vandenberg Air Force Base in California to deploy WGS, GPS and classified National Reconnaissance Office spacecraft.WGS 4 starts an enhanced “block” of satellites with improved bandwidth for communications to the military’s remotely-controlled unmanned aerial drones, which are used for surveillance, intelligence-gathering and offensive operations.The Air Force says it plans to put this WGS 4 spacecraft into service over the Middle East and Southeast Asia for U.S. Central Command and U.S. Pacific Command.An artist’s concept of WGS antenna arrangement. Credit: BoeingWeighing about 13,000 pounds at launch, the craft’s communications package provides shaped, steerable spotbeams of bandwidth wherever requested across its field-of-view for Ka- and X-band frequencies, plus the onboard capability to convert signals from one band to the other. The data transmission rates range from 2.1 to 3.6 Gbps. Once fully unfurled in space, the craft’s solar-power wings will span 134 feet.Three WGS spacecraft are operating in geosynchronous orbit today, and The Boeing Co. has four more in production at its El Segundo factory in Los Angeles. The craft are built upon the company’s powerhouse 702-model design.For over four decades, the Defense Satellite Communications System was the foundation for flowing secure information to military forces around the globe. But that heritage system is being phased out as the aging craft retire and the new WGS satellites ascend to orbit to take advantage of new technology.The final DSCS craft was launched by a Delta 4 rocket in 2003. ()An artist’s concept of WGS spotbeams. Credit: BoeingEach WGS bird possesses 10 times the capacity of a DSCS satellite and offers 19 coverage areas with its steerable antennas versus 8 under the heritage craft.The X-band communications through DSCS and WGS allow data, photos and video to be relayed to troops on the battlefield. But WGS also brings Ka-band to the table for high-volume broadcasting to user terminals across the reception area.At the heart of each WGS is an internal box called a digital channelizer that enables a user with a Ka-band terminal to seamlessly connect to someone with an X-band terminal, or vice versa.But the new Block 2 satellites, beginning with WGS 4, come with a bypass feature for unmanned aerial drone communications to skip the crossbanding path and use two uplink and two downlink channels that offer three times the bandwidth as the normal channels, opening up a much wider pipeline for data to flow.File image of Delta 4 Medium+(5,4) on the pad for WGS 3. Credit: ULAThe Delta 4 carrying WGS 4 will be flying in the Medium+(5,4) configuration, which is the most powerful of the Medium-version rockets and below only the triple-core Heavy in the modular family’s lineup.The Medium+(5,4) has a five-meter-diameter upper stage loaded with more cryogenic propellants than the optional four-meter motor used for other launches, such as GPS missions. The rocket also has a full set of four solid-fuel boosters strapped to the first stage, double the number used for GPS and other lower-weight payloads.The first stage is powered by the RS-68 hydrogen-fed main engine and the upper stage has the RL10B-2 engine, the powerplants used on all 17 Delta 4 missions to date.With WGS 4 now aboard, the fully stacked rocket stands 217 feet, 7 inches tall and looks ready for blastoff in just 15 days.

S. intelligence community, already burdened with growing tasksfrom an increasingly dangerous world.The satellite is likely an “Advanced Mentor” design, accordingto GlobalSecurity.Org, a military think tank. Earlier versions weredesignated Orion.Due to satellite development delays and a 1998 Titan launchfailure involving an earlier “Mercury” eavesdropper design, the U.S.has fallen as much as one or two spacecraft behind its original 10-yearschedule to launch such giant eavesdroppers. These spacecraft providethe kind of information the White House, State Dept. and Pentagonneed to make military and national foreign policy decisions.It is also likely a “broad spectrum” satellite that can update keyfrequency information on hostile radars and other detection systemsthat could threaten U.S. forces.The three earlier Mentor spacecraft introduced a very large’wrap-rib’ deployable antenna design spanning up to 350 feet, saysGlobalSecurity.Org. The Delta 4-Heavy rocket launches at 9:47 p.m. EST on January 17.Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight NowThe National Security Agency will be the prime distributor of thespacecraft’s data, sending information from the satellite to theother 15 agencies and organizations that now make up theintelligence community.It has been five years since a large geosynchronous orbiteavesdropping satellite has been launched from Cape Canaveral. Thatearlier satellite, believed to have been a less capable version ofthe Mentor, was lofted on board a Titan-Centaur booster inSeptember 2003.Over the last two-and-a-half years, however, two different eavesdroppingsatellites have been launched on smaller Delta 4-Medium and Atlas 5rockets from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif. These spacecraft, withsmaller antennas, are in highly elliptical orbits of roughly 700 x 23,500miles.Instead of remaining parked over one location above the equator,these Vandenberg-launched satellites travel up and down over thenorthern hemisphere. They can listen into radio communications fromdifferent locations or radio waves monitored from different angles,compared with geosynchronous orbit satellites.The data from these different eavesdroppers is then combined andassessed with other sources of information including that obtained byaircraft such as advanced versions of the U-2.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:FULL LAUNCH EXPERIENCE VIDEO:LAUNCH PAD CAMERA NO. 1 VIDEO:LAUNCH PAD CAMERA NO. 2 VIDEO:THE DELTA 4-HEAVY ROCKET LIFTS OFF VIDEO:LAUNCH AS SEEN FROM PRESS VIEWING SITE VIDEO:TIME-LAPSE MOVIE OF THE GANTRY RETRACTING VIDEO:LAUNCH PAD’S MOBILE GANTRY ROLLED BACK MORE:STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

File image of a Delta 4-Heavy rocket. Credit: Pat Corkery/United Launch AllianceCountdown clocks are targeting a liftoff time of 6:06 p.m. EST (2306 GMT) from the Florida spaceport’s Complex 37. The evening’s available launch opportunity likely extends upwards of four hours.The original launch date of Thursday was delayed by 24 hours to fix an issue with ground pyrotechnics that release the big booster at liftoff. See our for live coverage.United Launch Alliance’s Delta 4-Heavy is America’s biggest unmanned rocket currently in service, capable of lofting the largest and heftiest cargos. The mammoth vehicle is created by taking three Common Booster Cores — the liquid hydrogen-fueled motor that forms a Delta 4-Medium’s first stage — and strapping them together to form a triple-barrel rocket, and then adding an upper stage.The nighttime blastoff should be visually spectacular, lighting up the Space Coast with three distinct pillars of fire from the main engines trailing more than 200 feet long. Ideal viewing spots include off SR401 at Port Canaveral, along the 528 causeway or on the riverbanks in Titusville.Thundering eastward across the open Atlantic, the rocket will soar out of sight within a few minutes as it embarks on a multi-hour mission to serve the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office, the agency responsible for the country’s fleet of intelligence-gathering satellites.The NRO’s diverse spacecraft, including telescope-like observers and communications collectors, uncover looming dangers to the nation and provide surveillance over the world’s hot spots.”Always vigilant, the NRO’s eyes and ears give America’s policy markers, intelligence analysts, warfighters and homeland security specialists the critical information they need to keep America safe, secure and free,” the agency says.The clandestine payload going up this time, known only by its launch identification number of NROL-32, is widely believed to be an essential eavesdropping spacecraft that requires the powerful lift provided by the Delta 4-Heavy to reach its listening post.In an address to the Air Force Association conference in September, NRO Director Bruce Carlson, a retired Air Force general, said this rocket launch would carry “the largest satellite in the world on it.”The NRO has flown various types of communication-interceptors since the dawn of the space age, and analysts say it is virtually certain this Delta 4-Heavy is hauling another.”I believe the payload is the fifth in the series of what we call Mentor spacecraft, a.k.a. Advanced Orion, which gather signals intelligence from inclined geosynchronous orbits. They are among the largest satellites ever deployed,” said Ted Molczan, a respected sky-watcher who keeps tabs on orbiting spacecraft.Destined for geosynchronous orbit 22,300 miles above the planet, this new spacecraft supposedly will unfurl an extremely lightweight but gigantically huge umbrella-like antenna to overhear enemy communications and aid U.S. intelligence.”The satellite likely consists of sensitive radio receivers and an antenna generally believed to span up to 100 meters (328 feet) to gather electronic intelligence for the National Security Agency,” Molczan said.Observers think the mesh antenna’s diameter is the size of a football field, comparable to the International Space Station’s remarkable width. That explains why satellite-tracking hobbyists say these Mentor craft are “by far the brightest” in the high-flying geosynchronous orbital perch to see from the ground, outshining conventional television relay birds, weather sentinels and the like.Although NRO satellites are secretive by nature, the spacecraft are visible by just looking up. Molczan is member of a hobbyist group that routinely finds and watches the craft while monitoring the skies with precision.But despite the identity of this particular satellite being obvious, exactly where in the geosynchronous belt it will be positioned and what part of the globe it will cover are details that remain hush-hush.”The upcoming launch may replace one of the older spacecraft in the series, or augment the fleet by occupying a new location in geosynchronous orbit,” Molczan said. File image of a Delta 4-Heavy rocket launch. Credit: Pat Corkery/United Launch AlliancePrevious Mentor satellites were launched by Titan 4 rockets from Cape Canaveral in 1995, 1998 and 2003, plus the most recent Delta 4-Heavy in early 2009 carried one, according to the satellite-tracking hobbyists.The craft lineage can be traced to the two Magnum satellites trucked to orbit aboard the space shuttle Discovery during the STS-51C mission in 1985 and STS-33 in 1989, historians have indicated.An even earlier generation launched in the 1970s using Atlas rockets from the Cape, according to the authoritative website.Friday’s rocket launch continues a surge of NRO spy satellite deployments after a lengthy 20-month lull. An Atlas 5 rocket began this ongoing campaign by dispatching a new-generation radar imaging satellite in September from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California.The upcoming schedule calls for several more significant launches in the next few months:A Delta 4-Heavy rocket for NROL-49 from Vandenberg on January 11A Delta 4 rocket for NROL-27 from Cape Canaveral on March 4An Atlas 5 for NROL-34 from Vandenberg on March 31Carlson said “this is the most aggressive launch campaign that the National Reconnaissance Office has had in 20 years, almost a quarter of a century.””The other thing I can tell you is these are very important, because they all go to update a constellation which is aging rapidly. We bought most of our satellites for three, five, or eight years, and we’re keeping them on orbit for ten, twelve, and up to twenty years,” Carlson said.”Now, when I buy something people complain about how expensive it is, but nobody ever complains when it’s time to die and it keeps right on ticking. Some of these guys are like the Energizer bunny and they have really done marvelous work.”We’re doing things that were designed to essentially operate during the era of the Soviet Union that are today doing tactical intelligence collection that leads us to actionable intelligence on bad guys every day. Every day. And we’re doing it with equipment that’s 15, 18, and 20 years old.”STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

Credit: Gene Blevins/LA Daily News”The flight data review was extremely thorough, scrutinizing not only the extensive, standard flight telemetry data, but also the additional data from more than 500 channels of special instrumentation, specifically installed for this first Heavy mission,” said Col. John Insprucker, Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle Program Director at the Air Force’s Space and Missile Systems Center.Officials sifted through mounds of data collected from liftoff through deployment of the mock satellite cargo during the Air Force-ordered test launch. The Defense Department awarded Boeing a $141 million contract to fly the first Delta 4-Heavy on a demonstration launch instead of carrying a real payload. “It’s important to remember that the primary payload for this mission was really the instrumentation we carried onboard,” Col. Insprucker said. “Our investment in telemetry and additional special instrumentation is helping us quickly zero in on the cause of the anomaly, and I’m confident the data will also enable us to fine-tune all aspects of our future Delta 4 heavy-lift missions.”The December 21 flight was deemed a success despite a problem impacting the firing time of all three Common Booster Cores, which were strapped together to form the rocket’s first stage. The Rocketdyne-made RS-68 main engine on each booster shut down several seconds early, causing a speed deficit that the rocket’s upper stage could not overcome. The dummy satellite was delivered into an orbit much lower than planned and two nanosats were lost.The ongoing investigation to determine why the engines stopped firing 8 seconds prematurely on the port and starboard boosters and 9 seconds early on the center stage has narrowed the list of possible culprits. The leading theory continues to be a condition called cavitation where liquid oxygen flowing through the feedline from the tank to the engine turns to gaseous oxygen. This phenomenon is believed to have occurred around internal sensors that are designed to tell the engines when to shut down. The sensors reacted to the bubbles, thought the boosters had run out of liquid oxygen and commanded the RS-68s to cut off. But each motor had plenty of liquid oxygen remaining in their tanks to finish the normal firing time.Using the standard investigative tool known as a Fault Tree analysis, the team has cleared 42 of 49 potential causes, including the sensors themselves and the main engines. All 7 remaining branches in the Fault Tree involve various types of disturbances in the flow of liquid oxygen, the Air Force said. The Delta 4-Heavy rocket launches on its test flight. Credit: Gene Blevins/LA Daily News”The team is meeting daily across multiple locations to complete the investigation,” said Dan Collins, vice president of Boeing Expendable Launch Systems. “Determining root cause from the remaining 7 open branches is the top priority.”Computer models that simulate the liquid oxygen flow within the feedline on each booster are examining the cavitation scenario. The liquid oxygen tank is located at the top-end of each stage, above the liquid hydrogen fuel tank, with a feedline running down the length of the booster to the main engine. The Air Force says the engine cutoff sensors are positioned about five feet downstream of the liquid oxygen tank.”Initial simulation runs have already given new insight into the flow dynamics in the feedline (velocity and pressure patterns). The team will progressively add details to the computer models to build up an accurate representation of the internal features of the tank and feedline, and to simulate the flight conditions at the time of the premature engine cutoff,” the Space and Missile Systems Center said in a statement Friday.”The simulation team will use these models, along with the flight sensor data, to identify where cavitation is most likely to have developed in the liquid oxygen flow for the Heavy demonstration flight conditions. The onset of cavitation is thought to be caused by a unique combination of vehicle acceleration,?liquid oxygen?level in the propellant tank,?tank pressures,?feedline internal features and flow rates in the feedline when the RS-68 engine is at full power.”The team also plans to simulate liquid oxygen flow under flight conditions from previous Delta 4 missions, where the anomaly was not observed, to help verify the accuracy of the complex computer models.”Three previous Delta 4 missions have flown — all successfully and on target — in the so-called Medium configuration that features just one Common Booster Core. The Heavy design uses three booster cores in order to launch much heftier payloads.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:FROM LIFTOFF TO BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:THE DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH (SHORT VERSION) VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA RECORDS LAUNCH VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA SEES BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA CAPTURES FAIRING JETTISON AUDIO:LISTEN TO THE 68-MINUTE PRE-LAUNCH NEWS CONFERENCE VIDEO:ANIMATION PROVIDES PREVIEW OF A DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH VIDEO:RE-LIVE THE INAUGURAL DELTA 4 LAUNCH FROM 2002 VIDEO:ON-PAD FLIGHT READINESS ENGINE FIRING TEST VIDEO:TAKE TOUR OF LAUNCH PAD 37B Apollo 11 special patchSpecial collectors’ patch marking the 35th anniversary of the historic Apollo 11 moon landing is now available.Choose your store: – – – Inside Apollo mission controlAn insider’s view of how Apollo flight controllers operated and just what they faced when events were crucial.

Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight NowSEE MORE LAUNCH IMAGES The year’s finale began at 3:04 p.m. EST as the Delta 2 booster darted away from pad 17A carrying the newest craft for the Global Positioning System.The three-stage launcher propelled the 4,500-pound satellite into a highly elliptical orbit reaching about 11,000 miles at the high point, 100 miles at the lowest and inclined 40 degrees to the equator. The Lockheed Martin-made satellite was released from the spent rocket 68 minutes after liftoff.”The Delta 2 and GPS team did great work throughout this launch campaign,” said Col. James Planeaux, Air Force mission director for the launch and commander of the Delta Group. “I’m thrilled to see those long hours and dedication to the mission rewarded with a pinpoint orbit insertion for GPS 2R-18.”A solid-propellant kick motor on the satellite itself will fire in a few days to circularize its orbit at 11,000 miles and increase the inclination to 55 degrees where the GPS constellation flies. The craft should be ready to enter service within a couple of weeks.”The successful deployment of this high-performance satellite represents another important milestone in the modernization of the GPS constellation and reflects our commitment to achieving mission success for our customer,” said Don DeGryse, Lockheed Martin’s vice president of Navigation Systems. “Our team is now focused on performing a rapid and efficient on-orbit checkout to quickly place the satellite’s advanced navigational capabilities into operational service.”Controllers will maneuver the $75 million craft into the Plane C, Slot 1 position of the constellation to take the place of GPS 2A-24. That satellite then moves into another role replacing the ailing GPS 2A-20 satellite, which was launched in May 1993 and has long outlived its seven-year design life.The orbiting network emits continuous navigation signals that allow users to find their position in latitude, longitude and altitude and determine time. Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight NowSEE MORE LAUNCH IMAGES The GPS 2R-18 spacecraft is the fifth in a series of eight with enhanced features designed to rejuvenate the GPS constellation.”Today’s launch moves us another step closer to modernizing the vital GPS constellation, which provides combat effects our warfighters depend on,” said Brig. Gen. Susan Helms, commander of the Cape’s 45th Space Wing.The modernized satellites transmit additional signals and feature improvements aimed at greater accuracy, tougher resistance to interference and better performance for users around the world.The new civilian signal removes navigation errors caused by the Earth’s ionosphere. The military advancements will provide an enhanced jam-resistant signal and enable more-precise targeting of GPS-guided weapons in hostile environments.”We have the most robust and capable Global Positioning System in the history of space, and we are focused on delivering world-class space-based positioning, navigation and timing capabilities for our military and civil communities. Thanks to the men and women of the 45thand 50th Space Wings, our industry partners and the Delta 2 and (GPS) 2R launch teams, the success of today’s launch was possible due to their dedication and hard work,” said Col. David Madden, commander of the Space and Missile Systems Center’s Global Positioning Systems Wing.Nine Delta rockets soared to space in 2007, all delivering their NASA, U.S. military and commercial cargos without fault. “This launch wraps up a high-tempo year of delivering space capability to our nation, including three Delta launches from Cape Canaveral in the last 64 days. It’s a great year-end exclamation point for the Launch and Range Systems Wing, the United Launch Alliance, and all of our mission teammates,” said Planeaux.The highlights from 2007:The Phoenix lander was dispatched for Mars to examine the frozen water in the northern plains that could be a habitable zone for life.NASA’s Dawn space probe powered by exotic ion engines was launched to orbit the worlds of Vesta and Ceres in the heart of the asteroid belt.Five tiny NASA satellites for the THEMIS mission were put in orbit to uncover the physics behind Earth’s auroras.Two launches of modernized replacement satellites were carried out to reinvigorate the Global Positioning System.A pair of Italian-made COSMO-SkyMed satellites that use radar to image the Earth for commercial and military uses were lofted in separate launches.The Delta 2 rocket marked its 75th consecutive successful launch with deployment of the sharp-eyed WorldView 1 Earth-imaging spacecraft.And the mammoth Delta 4-Heavy rocket entered operational service with the launch of the Air Force’s final Defense Support Program missile warning satellite.Complete coverage all nine launches, plus the missions from the past several years can be found in our .Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:THE DELTA 2 ROCKET BLASTS OFF WITH GPS 2R-18 VIDEO:MOBILE SERVICE TOWER IS ROLLED BACK FOR LAUNCH VIDEO:GPS SATELLITE ANIMATION STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

Launch highlights from first Vandenberg’s Delta 4-Heavy. Credit: ULAA new strategy, being employed to reduce the hydrogen flames generated during startup of the three Aerojet Rocketdyne RS-68 main engines, will see the triple-body rocket light one engine two seconds before the other two. Counting down to liftoff at 10:52 a.m. local (1:52 p.m. EDT; 1752 GMT), the Terminal Countdown sequencer will take control at T-minus 10 seconds and the starboard engine begins to ignite at T-minus 7 seconds. Unburned hydrogen is released through the engine and hits the burnoff sparklers beneath the rocket, creating a dramatic fireball around the vehicle’s base, something that has become a customary trademark for Delta 4 launches over the past decade.But the new staggered process is designed to lessen that pre-liftoff fire before the 23-story-tall Heavy takes to the sky. With the first engine running and working to aspirate the forthcoming hydrogen flame from the other two boosters, the center and port engines will begin their ignition process at T-minus 5 seconds and see a significant portion of the resulting fire drawn into launch table instead of rising up.Vandenberg’s previous Heavy lifts off in 2011. Credit: Pat Corkery/United Launch AllianceThe six previous launches of Delta 4-Heavy rockets — five from Cape Canaveral and one from Vandenberg — commanded all three engines to ignite simultaneously.The earlier Vandenberg launch in 2011, however, saw the ignition plume catch external insulation on fire as the vehicle lifted off and cleared to the pad. The flames extinguished a few seconds later and the mission proceeded successfully.The staggered engine sequence is meant to prevent such a reoccurrence without altering the engines’ operations during flight, providing a cleaner and less dramatic launch.The debut of this procedure on the East Coast will be made next year when a Heavy launches NASA’s Orion deep-space capsule on a three-orbit shakedown cruise around the Earth.Each engine guzzles nearly a ton of propellants per second to produce 656,000 pounds of sea-level rated thrust. The upper stage, with its Aerojet Rocketdyne RL10B-2 engine, takes over about six minutes into flight.Wednesday’s mission, flying southward from Vandenberg, will place a classified payload into polar orbit for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office, the agency responsible for operating the country’s fleet for spy satellites.The Delta 4-Heavy is America’s largest unmanned rocket currently in service, capable of lofting the biggest and heftiest cargos. The mammoth vehicle is created by taking three Common Booster Cores — the liquid hydrogen-fueled motor that forms a Delta 4-Medium’s first stage — and strapping them together to form a triple-barrel rocket, and then adding an upper stage. The first West Coast Delta 4-Heavy at Vandenberg’s SLC 6 in 2011. Credit: Pat Corkery/United Launch Alliance”There’s nothing bigger that the United States launches — period — in any way, shape or form, and that is absolutely amazing,” said Lt. Col. Jim Bodnar, commander of the 4th Space Launch Squadron at Vandenberg.A Heavy launching from Vandenberg is capable of putting school bus-sized reconnaissance observatories into polar orbit, a performance roughly comparable to the retired space shuttles and Titan 4 rockets.The target launch date for this mission, designated NROL-65, has remained unchanged for months, staying on schedule despite sequestration and personnel furloughs.”I don’t want to jinx myself, but it has been an extremely smooth flow,” Bodnar said. “It is a testament to the work ULA does and that the 4th Space Launch Squadron oversees. I dare say this has been one of the smoothest flows that I’ve seen.”A lengthy series of readiness reviews ranging from subsystems to the payload has been underway since last week. The assessments culminate with the final launch approval to be given Tuesday, Bodnar said.”The launch business is probably one of the most risk-adverse businesses out there,” Bodnar said. “The extra time the reviews take are well worth the cost because the alternative is unthinkable.”Crews at the Space Launch Complex 6 pad, the site formerly envisioned for West Coast space shuttle missions, will retract the mobile assembly shelter to its launch position on Monday. The 9-million-pound structure provides environmentally-friendly working conditions at the pad, originally to avoid high winds during shuttle stacking operations.The 13-million-pound mobile service tower that provides all-level access to the rocket will be wheeled back Tuesday night ahead of the countdown.Clocks will start ticking at 4:52 a.m. local Wednesday, followed a short time later by fueling operations for the eight cryogenic liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen tanks aboard the vehicle.A planned built-in hold is scheduled at T-minus 4 minutes and will last for 45 minutes, leading to liftoff at 10:52 a.m. local (1:52 p.m. EDT; 1752 GMT).It will be the 364th flight of a Delta rocket, the 24th for the Delta 4 family, the NRO’s eighth use of the Delta 4 and ULA’s 74th mission, the eighth just this year.”Rarely do you see dry eyes when the rocket launches and you know that it’s successful,” Bodnar said. “The fact that we actually get to see the fruits of all of that labor is actually amazing. They’re awe-inspiring.”Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is now available in our store.

The Antares rocket lifts off from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility. Photo credit: NASA/Joel KowskyLoaded with approximately 3,300 pounds of provisions, the commercial Orbital Sciences Corp. Cygnus supply ship will complete the cargo delivery Wednesday with an automated approach to the space station.The supplies include food for the lab’s six-man crew, research experiments to learn how the human body changes in space, gear to maintain systems aboard the massive research complex, and 29 small CubeSats to be ejected from the space station’s Japanese science module.The pursuit began at 12:52 p.m. EDT (1652 GMT) with a thunderous blastoff from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility. The 13-story Antares booster disappeared into clouds moments later, but telemetry radioed back to the ground from the rocket showed it performed as designed, burning twin kerosene-fueled Aerojet Rocketdyne AJ26 engines for nearly four minutes to rocket into the upper atmosphere.The Antares rocket jettisoned its aerodynamic fairing before firing a second stage Castor 30B solid-fueled motor built by ATK to accelerate up to orbital velocity.The rocket deployed the Cygnus spacecraft into orbit about 10 minutes after liftoff as the vehicles raced across the Atlantic Ocean at more than 5 miles per second.NASA confirmed two Dutch-built solar arrays on the Cygnus spacecraft extended to begin generating electricity for the cargo ship’s mission.Controllers will oversee numerous thruster firings by the Cygnus supply ship over the next three days as the vehicle shapes its orbit to meet the International Space Station on Wednesday.High-tech GPS and laser navigation systems will guide the Cygnus on its rendezvous, which is scheduled to culminate with capture by the space station’s Canadian robotic arm at 1039 GMT (6:39 a.m. EDT).Space station commander Steve Swanson will be at the controls of the robot arm during the approach, assisted by European Space Agency flight engineer Alexander Gerst.The mission — named Orb-2 — is Orbital’s second operational resupply run to the space station. The Dulles, Va.-based aerospace contractor conducted two test flights in 2013 before launching operational cargo service on the Orb-1 mission in January. File photo of a Cygnus cargo spacecraft at the International Space Station. Photo credit: NASA”Every flight is critical,” said Frank Culbertson, executive vice president of Orbital’s advanced programs group and a former space shuttle and space station commander. “We carry a variety of types of cargo on-board, which includes food and basic supplies for the crew, and also the research.”Sunday’s launch was delayed from early May after a bottleneck in the space station’s busy manifest of visiting cargo and crew vehicles. Orbital announced further delays as engineers ensured the AJ26 powerplants on the Antares rocket were free of the defect that caused a major engine mishap on a test stand in Mississippi.Ground crews fell behind in launch preparations last week due to severe weather at the Virginia launch site, forcing another slip.”It took a lot effort for people to pull this off,” Culbertson said.Orbital has a $1.9 billion contract with NASA to cover eight logistics missions through 2016. NASA has a similar contract with SpaceX, which takes up cargo with its Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon capsule, then returns experiment samples to Earth.Both companies are contracted to haul 20 metric tons, or about 44,000 pounds, of cargo to the space station.The U.S.-owned Cygnus and Dragon resupply vehicles, along with Russia’s Progress, the European Space Agency’s Automated Transfer Vehicle and Japan’s H-2 Transfer Vehicle, make up the space station’s life line with Earth to get critical hardware, life-support commodities, and food to the complex orbiting more than 250 miles up.”They really can’t afford to get behind on any of that with six people up there, and if we’re going to keep six people on the station, we need a routine and regular delivery of cargo, and that’s what we’re trying to establish with this service,” Culbertson said before Sunday’s launch.Supplies packed inside the Cygnus spacecraft’s pressurized cargo module, built in Italy by Thales Alenia Space, include more than a half-ton of food, a pump for the Japanese laboratory, and a hardware kit to prepare for future spacewalks to install a new nitrogen and oxygen system outside the space station’s airlock.”You’ve got to resupply the crew, you’ve got to keep the research flowing up to them, and you’ve got to have reliable return of some of the research samples,” said Dan Hartman, NASA’s deputy space station program manager. “There’s a lot of system maturation that we need to do that we’re testing on the International Space Station if we’re going to go deeper and farther into the solar system.”NASA views the space station as the cornerstone of the agency’s long-term space exploration strategy. Officials say physiological research and technology demonstrations aboard the space station are critical to making human missions to an asteroid or Mars feasible.”The way to succeed and buy down on all that risk is to have all these vehicles — the Cygnus, the ATV, the HTV, the SpaceX [Dragon] — and have a consistent resupply of not only the supplies needed for the crew, but also the cutting edge technology demonstrations that we need to fly to test — and yes, fail at times and retest — just to have that big learning experience as we go forward.”The Cygnus mission is also carrying 29 CubeSats, including 28 shoe box-sized spacecraft for San Francisco-based Planet Labs Inc., which is in the middle of launching a fleet of 100 small satellites to observe the entire planet every 24 hours.The satellites are part of the Planet Labs “Dove” constellation designed to collect images of Earth from orbit.Another CubeSat built at NASA’s Ames Research Center in California will test a new de-orbit system to induce drag on small objects in space, potentially leading to technologies that could enable scientists to return samples to Earth.The Cygnus spacecraft will depart the space station around Aug. 15. Controllers will guide the cargo carrier to a destructive re-entry over the Pacific Ocean a few days later, disposing the space station’s trash and other excess hardware.”Our plan is to keep Cygnus on-board for about a month, stow it with disposable cargo, and then prepare ourselves for the next mission, which will be the ATV in late July,” Hartman said.The European ATV cargo vehicle is set for liftoff from French Guiana on an Ariane 5 rocket July 24, with docking planned Aug. 12.Follow Stephen Clark on Twitter: .John Glenn Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The historic first orbital flight by an American is marked by this commemorative patch for John Glenn and Friendship 7.Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is available in our store.

[Posted: Jan. 23]Bubbles in Delta 4-Heavy’s plumbing possible culpritInvestigators are theorizing that the flow of super-cold liquid oxygen in the three core boosters of Boeing’s first Delta 4-Heavy rocket could have been disturbed, creating “bubbles” that tricked internal sensors into thinking the motors were out of fuel and causing them to command a premature engine shutdown, the Air Force said Friday. [Posted: Jan. 14]Delta 4-Heavy’s engines snuffed out by sensor glitchErrant readings from sensors inside the inaugural Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket triggered the premature shutdown of its three main engines during ascent last month, causing a massive underspeed that the vehicle’s upper stage could not overcome and resulting in a final orbit lower than planned, the U.S. Air Force said Friday. A team investigating results of the test launch are confident the problem can be resolved. [Posted: Jan. 7]Air Force says plenty of good came of Heavy testWhile stressing the positives of what was achieved during Tuesday’s demonstration flight of the Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket and the mountain of data generated about the big booster’s actions, Air Force officials on Wednesday acknowledged an “anomaly” occurred during the first stage and two university-built nanosats were lost after not reaching space.

[Posted: Nov. 19]350 launches and counting for family of Delta rockets SPACEFLIGHT NOWPosted: November 5, 2010 There was a sentimental blastoff from California on Friday night as the venerable Delta 2 made its one-and-only flight of the year, chalking up a major milestone for the rocket family’s lasting legacy while also finishing deployment of Italy’s radar satellite quartet that images the world for peace and security. Credit: Thom Baur/BoeingLaunching at 7:20 p.m. from Vandenberg Air Force Base, the space booster that has defined dependability for two decades successfully shot the COSMO-SkyMed 4 craft into orbit.It’s the last commercial mission currently booked for the Delta 2 rocket, which faces an uncertain future in the years ahead. Three launches carrying satellites for NASA will occur in 2011, but whether the program flies beyond next year depends whether five additional vehicles in inventory can be sold.”We are actively trying to market those. We have a lot of customer interest in the Delta 2,” says Hieu Lam, Friday’s mission director and Boeing Launch Services’ Delta commercial program manager.”We have five left and we’re working really hard to sell the last five. We’ll know within the next year or two how successful we’ll be in selling the last five.”Over its 148 flights since debuting in 1989, the Delta 2 has carried a wide mix of payloads and achieved a remarkable 98.6 percent success record. The past has included 57 military missions, 46 commercial satellite flights and 45 launches with NASA spacecraft.But the Air Force, which spurred the Delta 2’s creation in the late 1980s, has moved to other rockets, and the dwindling number of payloads suited for the vehicle’s capacity have combined to create this situation.”This medium market, it basically dried up in the past few years. But we see it coming back pretty strongly in 2013-2014 and beyond,” added Kris Walsh, rocket-builder United Launch Alliance’s commercial program manager.”Both commercial and government markets recognize the Delta 2 is a very reliable launch vehicles. But there are other competitors coming on the market. So we just have to be very diligent in working with our customers in trying to get them onboard and buy the last five here,” Lam said.United Launch Alliance conducted Friday’s rocket flight while Boeing managed the commercial contract for the Italian customer. ULA was formed in December 2006 to merge Boeing’s Delta and Lockheed Martin’s Atlas rocket families under one joint venture to perform U.S. government space launches. The parent companies, however, retained the ability to sell the rockets on the commercial market, such as the COSMO flights. An artist’s concept of COSMO-SkyMed. Credit: TelespazioSince COSMO 4 was the last commercial Delta contract that it held, the outlook for Boeing Launch Services depends on selling the remaining five Delta 2’s or inserting the Delta 4 vehicle back into the non-government marketplace.”Boeing Launch Services will be around in one form or another as long as Boeing has the responsibility to market the Delta launch vehicle. What it looks like will very much depend on the Delta 2 commercial sales, we have five left, and then the commercial viability of Delta 4,” Lam said.In the broader sense of history, Friday’s launch also represented the 350th flight in the Delta program’s distinguished legacy stretching back to 1960 and the earliest days of America’s efforts to reach space. Originally born from the Thor intermediate-range ballistic missile, Delta became a lifter of satellites for the nation and the world.”When you look back at the accomplishments of Delta 1, Delta 2 and now Delta 4, it’s amazing,” said Walsh.Evolutionary steps brought more power and capability as the rocket’s family grew to newer versions, ultimately creating the Delta 2 that assembled the Global Positioning System constellation, launched inspiring science projects like the Mars rovers and supported many commercial efforts. The family name lives on with Delta 4, the modular line of rockets conceived as part of the Air Force’s Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle that today carry the country’s largest and most important military satellites.”It’s special, 350 is special,” Lam said.”I started with Delta 178, so it’s been 172 Delta’s that I’ve been involved with in one way or another. I’ve been an engineer, mission manager or program manager. I’ve seen everything from the first Delta 2 to Delta 3 to Delta 4, and I’m very, very happy to have a career here with Delta.”The purpose of Friday’s launch was hauling the COSMO-SkyMed 4 satellite into its desired orbital perch, joining three sister-craft deployed by previous Delta 2 rockets in 2007 and 2008.

Credit: TelespazioIt is Italy’s home-grown Earth observing system, a constellation of radar satellites built for civil and military reconnaissance in a flagship program carrying a 1 billion euro price tag.Developed by Thales Alenia Space Italia for the Italian Space Agency and the Italian Ministry of Defence, the COSMO-SkyMed system is the country’s largest space project.Each satellite is equipped with an X-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar instrument for environmental monitoring, resource management and territorial security surveillance. They are capable of seeing the ground in daylight or darkness, with clear skies or cloudy ones.The craft can produce 450 images per day and the picture-collecting time between civil and military uses is proportional to the financial contributions made during development of the system. The Italian Space Agency funded about 70 percent and the Ministry of Defence provided about 30 percent.Imagery released for civilian purposes have a resolution of 1 meter, meaning objects as small as that size can be seen. The military capability is even sharper, though its exact resolution is classified.The satellites have proved themselves beneficial to humanitarian organizations responding to natural disasters, such as hurricanes and earthquakes.The constellation of four satellites enables any specific region of the planet to be observed by COSMO-SkyMed every six hours. That allow authorities to assess and begin responding when a crisis strikes.STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: June 29, 2004After a seven-year voyage from Earth, NASA’s $3.3 billion Cassini probe is racing toward a make-or-break rocket firing Wednesday, a 96-minute maneuver designed to put the craft in orbit around the ringed planet Saturn for a four-year scientific odyssey.Flight controllers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., sent final commands to Cassini over the weekend, setting the stage for main engine ignition at 10:35:42 p.m. Wednesday. Cassini fires its engine to enter orbit around Saturn as illustrated in this artist’s concept. Credit: NASA/JPLOperating more than 930 million miles from Earth – so far it takes radio signals an hour and 23 minutes to make a one-way trip – Cassini’s on-board computer system must carry out the all-important rocket firing on its own.At this point, flight controllers can only sit and wait. And chew their nails.”I think about the Cassini mission as having three primary segments and then two rather hair-graying events that connect those segments into one continuous mission,” said project manager Bob Mitchell. “The segments are designing and building the spacecraft, flying the spacecraft to Saturn and then conducting the science mission at Saturn.”And the hair graying events are launch and orbit insertion, which is coming up tomorrow. Now for the launch event, I think we’ve all recovered from that very nicely, primarily because it was just so outstandingly successful. … We’re about to go through our second hair-graying event.”At a news conference today, he told reporters “I think I can speak for all the team members when I say that while we’re all at least a little bit nervous, we’re also very excited. It’s an event we welcome very much and are pleased to have here.”The goal of the Cassini mission is to study Saturn’s windy atmosphere, its complex ring system, several of its icy moons and how the planet’s magnetic field interacts with the space environment. In what promises to be one of the most exciting phases of the mission, a European-built probe called Huygens will be released from Cassini on Christmas Eve for a parachute descent into the thick nitrogen atmosphere of Saturn’s moon, Titan, on Jan. 14.In all, Cassini is expected to complete 77 orbits of Saturn over the next four years, requiring 157 trajectory-nudging rocket firings. The gravity of Titan will be used for major course changes, with 45 planned flybys. Seven close flybys of smaller, icy moons also are planned.But first, Cassini must execute the Saturn Orbit Insertion maneuver, or SOI. This graphic shows the ring plane crossing and orbit insertion burn. Credit: NASA/JPLTo achieve orbit around Saturn, the 12,600-pound Cassini must reduce its velocity by about 1,400 mph using a rocket engine that only produces 100 pounds of push. As a result, the engine must fire for 96.4 minutes to put Cassini into the desired orbit.If the engine shuts down early, the computer will switch to a spare. But the end result must be roughly the same – 96 minutes of braking – or Cassini might not be able to achieve its long-awaited mission.”There are no problems, we have no indication of any problems with the spacecraft that would have any adverse effect on SOI,” Mitchell said. Added Julie Webster, lead spacecraft engineer: “This spacecraft, this whole mission has been an incredibly smooth one to fly.””This orbit insertion sequence is self contained on the spacecraft,” she said. “We loaded up the last command we’re going to send to it late Saturday night, Sunday morning, and we’ve just been clocking it out ever since and getting no indications of anything. We expect this to go very, very smoothly.”The propulsion system has worked flawlessly since Cassini’s launch aboard a Titan 4B rocket on Oct. 15, 1997. The only issue of any consequence was a leaking helium regulator that forced engineers to change the way they pressurize the system for major rocket firing.Helium is used to push propellants through Cassini’s plumbing and into the main engine’s combustion chamber at a constant pressure. The regulator controls that pressurization, which is needed for long firings like the upcoming Saturn Orbit Insertion burn.In this case, Cassini’s complexity and built-in redundancy came to the rescue. By delaying the opening of a downstream latch valve to just 70 seconds or so before main engine ignition, engineers were able to work around the regulator issue with no impact to mission operations. The procedure was used for a major 88-minute Deep Space Maneuver rocket firing back in 1998 and again in late May for a six-minute burn that set up a flyby of the moon Phoebe.”We’ve got a real nice propulsion system,” lead propulsion engineer Todd Barber said in an earlier interview. “It’s a plumber’s nightmare, there are so many valves and alternate paths and contingency paths available that basically, we’re able to handle a lot of anomalies. And the regulator leak we saw was right after launch and we’ve been able to accommodate that with the way we time the opening of valves, etc.”Even so, Barber will feel much better after Cassini successfully brakes into orbit. “It’s been a long time coming and the hopes and dreams of thousands of engineers are resting on that one evening. When we get the signal back is when we’ll all go take a deep breath. Hold your ears, because they might pop.” Cassini’s two engines are seen in this pre-launch photo. Credit: NASA/JPLCassini is equipped with two rocket engine assemblies, REA-A and REA-B. Rocket Engine Assembly B, however, is strictly a backup. It has never been fired.Mitchell said in an interview he had high confidence the SOI maneuver will work normally and that REA-B will not be needed “based on all of the testing, all the elaborate work that we have put into this, as well as our experience with the spacecraft to date. We’ve done 15 or 16 maneuvers using the main engine … and so we have every reason to believe this thing is going to work just fine.”But, he added, “the software the thing flies is all complex and I just worry about what bugs are still in there. I think it must be inevitable that there are still bugs in there for something this complex. We’ve tested it extensively, we have a test bed here in the basement of our building that is a quite high fidelity spacecraft simulator and the sequences have been run through there many, many times. We have injected faults, we’ve had various components break, where we simulated a break in the test bed and looked to see what response we got. And at the moment, everything works. All the tests that we’ve done, all the simulations indicate that everything is just fine.”The maneuver has little margin for error. Cassini first must avoid any crippling debris impacts when it crosses the ring plane between the F and G rings, moving from the lower side of the rings to the upper side as viewed from Earth.Pioneers 10 and 11, along with Voyager 2, flew through the gap with no problems but Cassini flight planners are taking no chances. Before traversing the ring plane, the spacecraft will be oriented with its high-gain dish antenna facing the direction of travel to act as a shield.Voyager 2 went through outer edge of the G ring and its instruments recorded “lots of evidence of micrometeoroid hits when going through, but nothing serious,” said Voyager veteran Torrence Johnson, a Cassini imaging team member and chief scientist for the Galileo mission.”So we have that maneuvering to do and then there’s the fact that the place is just a junky system,” he said in an interview. “We’re going in close, we’re skimming right over the rings, everybody thinks we’ve modeled all this right and we’re being reasonably cautious. But I told some of the guys early on, if they’re going to be scared of ring particles they ought to remember John Paul Jones’ letter to Congress, ‘give me a fast ship for I intend to sail in harm’s way.'”I don’t think anybody’s real complacent about this thing,” Johnson said. “I think we’ve done everything we can to make sure we don’t have any human or systems screw ups, but nature can still get you.”Jerry Jones, Cassini’s chief navigator, said flying through the ring plane relatively close to Saturn will save propellant and makes the rocket firing more efficient. “But the real clincher, given all that, is the science in that close. We’re going to be sitting there looking right down on those rings.””We’ve got one class-A camera on this spacecraft,” he said in an interview. “It’s a beautiful telescope, it has great resolution, very sharp edges and for optical navigation, I’m just pleased as punch. … The science opportunity going over the rings should be just fantastic, to say nothing of showing the public what they’ve paid for.” This graphic shows Cassini’s track as it enters orbit around Saturn. Credit: NASA/JPLOnce safely through the ring plane, Cassini will re-orient itself once again, swapping ends to put the main engine forward for the SOI burn. NASA originally planned to carry out the rocket firing “in the blind,” with Cassini focusing on science observations while the engine put on the brakes. But in the wake of back-to-back Mars mission failures in 1999, NASA management ordered engineers to figure out a way for Cassini to provide at least some information about the start of the burn, its progress and its termination.”So we went back and scrambled then,” Barber said. “We had a compromise solution. We could have pointed the high-gain antenna to Earth during the whole burn and have telemetry but there was a large delta V (fuel) penalty to do so. So the plan is to switch to a low gain antenna and that will allow us to maintain Doppler during the burn.”While no actual data will be transmitted to Earth, analysis of the Doppler shift of a carrier signal from the spacecraft will tell engineers when the burn started, the precise deceleration it produces and when it stops.”There were two key things we wanted to be sure we could differentiate between,” Mitchell said. “One was in the event we just lost it entirely and never saw it again, we wanted to be able to differentiate between whether we had a problem going through the ring plane or whether we did that successfully and had a problem during the course of the burn itself. So with the data we have, we will know that quite well.”After re-orienting itself for SOI, Cassini will begin transmitting a carrier signal. Six minutes later, the burn will begin, showing up on computer screens at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory as a change in the slope of the carrier frequency. Thirty minutes later, the signal is expected to fade out for 25 minutes or so as Cassini passes behind Saturn’s A ring as viewed from Earth.Engineers then expect six minutes of carrier through a gap in the rings known as the Cassini division before another 28-minute communications blackout while the spacecraft passes behind the broad B ring. Closest approach to Saturn – 12,400 miles from the planet’s cloud tops – is expected at 12:03 a.m. July 1, nine minutes before the SOI burn comes to an end. The first images and other data from the orbit insertion maneuver are expected around 8:39 a.m.Here is an edited timeline of critical events in the SOI maneuver for the evening of June 30 through the morning of July 1 (all times in EDT): “We turn off of Earth line shortly prior to the ring plane crossing,” Mitchell explained. “We turn to point the high-gain antenna in the direction we need to be in to shield the rest of the spacecraft and then there’s a period of about an hour where we don’t have any contact.”Then when we turn back to go to the burn attitude, at about the time we get to that attitude, which is six minutes prior to the burn start, we will crank up a signal that comes from one of the low gain antennas. There’s no telemetry, it’s just a carrier.”But that carrier will allow us to get Doppler and that’ll tell us if the spacecraft is operating fine and has not had any safing events. And then during the course of the burn, that Doppler will let us see quite accurately what the acceleration levels are. So if the system is performing nominally or over performing or under performing, the Doppler will show that very well.”The day after orbit insertion, Cassini will pass within 205,000 miles of Titan, the first official Titan encounter of the mission. Between July 4 and 11, the spacecraft will be out of contact as Saturn passes behind the sun as viewed from Earth. The SOI sequence will end on July 30 as tour sequence No. 3 begins.Sometime around Aug. 23, Cassini’s main engine is scheduled to fire in what will be the last fully helium-regulated burn of the mission: a 51-minute maneuver that will change the spacecraft’s velocity by 877 mph. The Perigee Raise Maneuver, or PRM, will raise the low point of Cassini’s orbit and set up the first close flyby of Titan in October. After another flyby in December, the Huygens probe will be released for atmospheric entry during the mission’s third Titan encounter in January.The SOI maneuver is one of only three so-called “critical sequences” built into Cassini’s mission software. A critical sequence is one that simply must execute properly to ensure mission success. The launch to Venus was one such sequence and the only other one is the Huygens data relay sequence.SOI is “the only maneuver that we will do throughout the entire course of the mission where we just absolutely have to do this burn right now,” Mitchell said at a news briefing. “If this burn doesn’t work, then we would have a Saturn flyby and that’s not what we’re here about. So we have designed what we refer to as a critical sequence where no matter what fault might occur, the spacecraft will not let the burn halt. Now in some modes it will stop the burn, swap to the other engine and then continue on with the burn. But the burn will continue even in the presence of faults.”During normal operations, a problem with a spacecraft system would trigger fault-protection software that would shut down unnecessary activity, a condition known as safe mode. There are numerous variations, depending on the nature and timing of the fault and whether the spacecraft still knows its orientation in space. The end result, however, is the same: Cassini shuts down, finds the sun (Earth will never be more than six degrees away), switches to low-data-rate communications and awaits instructions from Earth.Because of Saturn’s great distance and the slow-speed radio link used in safe mode, engineers would need at least 48 hours to restore Cassini to normal operations. Such a fault during the SOI maneuver would shut the main engine down, interrupting the all-important rocket firing and possibly dooming the mission. But in critical sequence mode, that will not be allowed to happen.”In critical mode, if the spacecraft detects a fault – we get a glint in the eye of the star scanner or the thrusters don’t like what they’re doing or a piece of hardware doesn’t work right – the spacecraft will detect a fault,” Webster said. “The sequence will halt and the spacecraft is allowed through its autonomous fault protection to go off and fix the fault.”And then it will come back and say I’ve detected a fault, I’ve fixed the fault. And then it’ll come back and say OK, critical sequence, you can restart. And the critical sequence will say Oh, but I’ve gotta remember where I was. We have what we call a mark and rollback strategy. So it’ll roll back to the last good mark point and it will resend all the commands necessary to execute the next states that it needs to be in. It’ll recommend all of those and continue on. And so, if there’s a fault anytime during the critical sequence, it’ll stop, halt, detect the fault, correct the fault and then restart the sequence.”That’s where Cassini’s second main engine comes in. If a fault of any kind interrupts the SOI sequence, the computer will fire up rocket engine assembly B and continue the burn.”In the burn, we have already disabled any fault protection activity that’s not necessary to complete the burn,” Webster said. “So we’ve got fault monitors, say, on the CDS (command and data system) computer and on the radio. Well, the radio’s not necessary to complete a burn. Neither is the CDS, ironically, because the attitude and articulation control system also has its own computer and once the CDS has told it to go do a burn, it takes over and says I don’t need you anymore, I’ll complete this burn and I’ll let you know when I’m done. So only the fault protection that’s necessary to complete the burn is active.”It would detect a fault in where it’s pointing or the propulsion system wasn’t acting right, maybe under thrusting or over thrusting. If there’s a fault during the burn, then we terminate the burn. We try to fix the fault and then we mark and roll back, pick up where we did, restart but we’re going to restart on the second engine. It takes at least two hours to cool down one engine. So 10 minutes later, we can restart on engine B and minimize our overall cost.”But any safe mode that would necessitate firing REA-B also would terminate priceless SOI science operations, a small price to pay if survival of the mission is at stake. Cassini has a seven-hour window in which to complete the SOI maneuver and “as long as we got the correct amount of burn at any time in that seven-hour period, we would get into orbit,” Webster said. “We might not like the orbit, but we’d get into orbit.”Stargaze II DVDThe Stargaze II DVD has arrived!

The ice grainsare bathed by Saturn’s radiation belt, liberating the oxygen atomsthat reflect sunlight and which makes them visible to the ultravioletspectrometer, said Esposito.A UVIS analysis of Phoebe — a tiny, dark moon aboutone-fifteenth the diameter of Earth’s moon — confirms the suspicionsof many space scientists that it was born elsewhere, likely in theKuiper Belt. The Kuiper Belt is a region beyond Neptune believed topopulated with thousands of small, icy moons created during theformation of the solar system more than four billion years ago.”UVIS sees the absorption signature of water ice on itssurface, showing Phoebe was born in the outer solar system,” Espositosaid. Exhibiting an unusual retrograde, or backward, orbit, Phoebelikely was lassoed by Saturn’s powerful gravitational field duringthe planet’s formative years, he said.Esposito presented his findings at the 36th annual Divisionof Planetary Sciences Meeting held in Louisville, Ken. Nov. 8 to Nov 12.The UVIS research team also has noted significant brighteningof the auroras at Saturn’s poles as the solar wind periodically rampsup to speeds of 250 miles, or 400 kilometers, per second, Espositosaid. “Dense puffs of the charged particles from the sun excite thehydrogen molecules in Saturn’s upper atmosphere to glow morebrightly.”In addition, UVIS continues to zero in on the fabulous ringsystem. “At the time Cassini went into orbit around Saturn, UVISproduced the highest detail images of Saturn’s rings ever made in UVlight,” he said. “These images show the amount of water-ice variesin the ring particles’ surfaces.”The variation is caused by the contamination of the ringswith meteoric dust, and by the subsequent transfer of materialbetween the ring particles from collisions and meteoroid bombardment,Esposito said.”The fluctuations we see can be explained by the recentdestruction of small moons within the rings, and by wave action inthe rings that dredges fresh material onto the surfaces of the ringparticles,” Esposito said. “This indicates that the material in therings is continually recycled from rings to moons and back.”The UVIS instrument was used to obtain the highest resolutionobservations of the ring particles ever by focusing on thefluctuations of light from a distant star as it passed behind therings, he said.The team also detected a density wave – a ripple-like featurein the rings caused by the influence of Saturn’s moons — – in theso-called Cassini Division. The Cassini Division is the gap betweenthe bright A and B rings of Saturn that are visible from Earth usingbackyard telescopes, he said. “Analysis of such waves determines thesize, mass and velocity of the ring particles,” said Esposito.The UVIS instrument also is showing a bright glow in theupper atmosphere of Titan, the most intriguing of Saturn’s 33 knownmoons and which will be targeted by the Cassini-Huygens probe slatedfor release by the spacecraft Christmas Eve. “Observations of Titanshow the glow of nitrogen atoms, molecules and ions energized byelectrons striking the upper atmosphere,” he said.Launched in 1997, the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft achievedSaturn orbit June 30. During the spacecraft’s four-year tour of theSaturn system, the UVIS team will continue to track the dynamicinteractions of the planet’s rings, moons and radiation belts,Esposito said.The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA,the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency.

The finding is suggested by new data from the Cassini spacecraft. These set of images were created during the Phoebe flyby on June 11. The images show the location and distribution of water-ice, ferric iron, carbon dioxide and an unidentified material on the tiny moon of Saturn. The first image was taken with Cassini’s narrow angle camera and is shown for comparison purposes only. The other images were taken by the visual and infrared mapping spectrometer onboard Cassini. Credit: NASA/JPL/University of ArizonaDownload larger image version Cassini scientists reviewed data from the spacecraft’s June 11, 2004, flyby of the diminutive moon. They concluded Phoebe is likely a primordial mixture of ice, rock and carbon-containing compounds similar in many ways to material seen in Pluto and Neptune’s moon Triton. Scientists believe bodies like Phoebe were plentiful in the outer reaches of the solar system about four and a half billion years ago.These icy planetesimals (small bodies) formed the building blocks of the outer solar system and some were incorporated into the giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. During this process, gravitational interactions ejected much of this material to distant orbits, joining a native population of similar bodies to form the Kuiper Belt.”Phoebe apparently stayed behind, trapped in orbit about the young Saturn, waiting eons for its secrets to be revealed during its rendezvous with the Cassini spacecraft,” said Dr. Torrence Johnson, Cassini imaging team member at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif.”All our evidence leads us to conclude, Phoebe’s surface is made of water ice, water-bearing minerals, carbon dioxide, possible clays and primitive organic chemicals in patches at different locations on the surface,” said Dr. Roger N. Clark, team member for the visual and infrared mapping spectrometer, U.S. Geological Survey in Denver. “We also see spectral signatures of materials we have not yet identified.” Cassini’s observations gave scientists the first detailed look at one of these primitive icy planetesimals.Phoebe’s mass was determined from precise tracking of the spacecraft and optical navigation, combined with an accurate volume estimate from images. The measurements yield a density of about 1.6 grams per cubic centimeter (100 pounds per cubic foot), much lighter than most rocks, but heavier than pure ice at approximately 0.93 grams per cubic centimeter (58 pounds per cubic foot). This suggests a composition of ice and rock similar to Pluto and Triton.Spectral measurements, light intensity as a function of color or wavelength, confirmed the presence of water ice previously detected by Earth-based telescopes. The measurements provided evidence for hydrated minerals on Phoebe’s surface, and detected carbon dioxide and solid hydrocarbons similar to those found in primitive meteorites.”One intriguing result is the discovery of possible chemical similarities between the materials on Phoebe and those seen on comets,” said Dr. Robert H. Brown, team leader for the visible and infrared mapping spectrometer, University of Arizona, Tucson. Evidence that Phoebe might be chemically kin to comets strengthens the case that it is similar to Kuiper Belt Objects.Measurements taken by the composite infrared spectrometer were used to generate temperature maps. The maps show the surface of Phoebe is very cold, only about 110 degrees above absolute zero (minus 163 degrees Celsius, or minus 261 degrees Fahrenheit). Even colder nighttime temperatures suggest a fluffy, porous surface layer.”One of the first results from this map is the surface of Phoebe has been badly chewed up, probably by meteorite impacts,” said Dr. John Pearl, a Cassini co-investigator for the composite infrared spectrometer, at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md. “We are discovering Phoebe is a very complex object, with large variations in topography.” This graphic illustrates that despite Phoebe’s bumpy, irregular topography, the moon has a fairly round shape. A digitally rendered shape model of Phoebe was constructed using Cassini imaging data obtained before and after the spacecraft’s close flyby of the Saturnian moon on June 11. The average diameter of Phoebe is about 133 miles. The coloring of the models corresponds to the height of Phoebe’s surface, relative to the lowest point – a range of about 10 miles – going from blue (low) to red (high). Credit: NASA/JPL/Space Science InstituteDownload larger image version Cassini also made radar observations of Phoebe’s enigmatic surface, making it the first spacecraft radar observations of an outer-planet moon. The results are consistent with the dirty, rocky, icy surface suggested by other observations.”We have conducted our first analysis of an outer solar system resident akin to Kuiper Belt Objects,” said Dr. Dennis Matson, project scientist of the Cassini-Huygens mission at JPL. “In two short weeks, we have added more to what we know about Phoebe than we had learned about it since it was discovered 100 years ago. We did this by having multiple instruments conducting investigations all at one time during our flyby.”The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: January 9, 2014 Delayed one day by cold weather and another day by concern about space radiation, an Orbital Sciences Corp. Antares rocket carrying a commercially developed cargo ship blasted off Thursday and climbed into orbit, kicking off the company’s first operational flight to deliver supplies and equipment to the International Space Station. Credit: Stephen Clark/Spaceflight NowFilling the void left by the space shuttle’s retirement in 2011, the flight was the first of seven commercial resupply missions planned for 2014, three by Orbital’s Antares/Cygnus vehicle and four by SpaceX Falcon 9 rockets and Dragon cargo craft.”We’re posturing ourselves to hit our stride with all of our new commercial cargo vehicles in the 2014 time period,” said Dan Hartman, NASA’s deputy space station program manager at the Johnson Space Center in Houston.”Orb-1 will be the first, we’ll get into some SpaceX, and basically kind of alternate back and forth between Orbital and SpaceX throughout the year. So we’re really looking to hit our stride in 2014 to meet our (resupply) needs.”The two-stage 130-foot-tall Antares rocket, equipped with modified first-stage engines left over from the Soviet moon program, roared to life at 1:07:05 p.m. EST (GMT-5) and quickly lifted off from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport, climbing away atop a torrent of fiery exhaust as Earth’s rotation carried the pad into the plane of the space station’s orbit.Accelerating smoothly as it consumed its first stage load of liquid oxygen and RP-1 kerosene rocket fuel, the Antares tilted over and streaked away through a clear blue sky above the Atlantic Ocean along a southeasterly trajectory.Ten minutes later, the Cygnus cargo ship was released from the Antares second stage into an initial orbit with a high point of around 185 miles and a low point of about 130 miles. A few moments after that, the spacecraft’s two solar arrays began unfolding as planned.If all goes well, Cygnus will approach the lab complex from behind and below, pulling up to within about 30 feet early Sunday as the two spacecraft sail 260 miles above southern Saskatchewan. Astronaut Mike Hopkins, operating the station’s robot arm, plans to lock onto a grapple fixture around 6:02 a.m. and pull the ship in for berthing at the Earth-facing port of the forward Harmony module.The solar-powered cargo craft is packed with 3,220 pounds of research equipment, spare parts and crew supplies, including 23 experiments involving more than 8,600 elementary, junior high and high school students in the United States and Canada. The experiments “address life sciences topics ranging from vaccine effectiveness and amoeba reproduction to calcium loss in bones and liquid behavior in space,” Orbital said in a news release.Other experiments include an “ants in space” payload to study behavioral differences between ants in normal gravity and those in the weightless environment of space; an investigation to study how materials burn in space; and a project called “Story Time in Space” that will feature crew members videotaping themselves reading children’s books and demonstrating various science and technology concepts.Also on board: 33 small “cubesat” satellites, fresh food and a few holiday gifts for the station’s six-man crew.Launch originally was planned for mid-December, but NASA ordered a delay when trouble with a coolant pump module aboard the station prompted managers to order a pair of spacewalks to install a spare.The repair work was successful, and after waiting for the station’s orbit to carry the lab back into a period of more moderate solar heating, NASA gave Orbital Sciences permission to proceed with the Orb-1 launch Wednesday.But concern about space radiation in the wake of a major solar flare earlier this week prompted Orbital managers to order a delay pending additional analysis to make sure high-energy particles blasted away from the sun would not cause problems for the rocket’s sensitive avoionics systems.Late Wednesday, mission managers concluded the rocket could safely fly and engineers prepared the rocket for launch Thursday.”This will be the first of three contracted cargo delivery missions for us this year,” Frank Culbertson, a former space shuttle commander and executive vice president of Orbital Sciences, said earlier this week. “We plan to also launch one in May and another in October if the schedule holds. At the end of the year, we will have delivered approximately 5,500 kilograms (12,125 pounds) of cargo to the space station commercially.”Following the Bush administration’s 2004 decision to retire the space shuttle, NASA kicked off a program to develop commercially operated unmanned cargo ships to replace the lost payload capability of the manned orbiter.Orbital eventually won a $1.9 billion contract to launch at least eight station resupply flights to deliver about 40,000 pounds of cargo and supplies. SpaceX holds a $1.6 billion contract for 12 flights to deliver more than 44,000 pounds of equipment. Two of those missions have been completed and a third is on tap in late February.Both companies held separate contracts to help pay for initial development and test flights.Orbital developed the Antares rocket and launched a Cygnus test flight last September. While the first Cygnus completed a successful rendezvous with the space station, it only carried a limited number of low-priority items. This time around, there were no restrictions and the spacecraft was packed to near capacity.”If there was a critical need, we put it on there,” Hartman said.Orbital’s Antares mission follows a successful flight Monday by an upgraded version of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket launched from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. It was the California company’s second flight in a row using a Falcon 9 variant to launch a commercial communications satellite.While SpaceX could be viewed as a major competitor, Culbertson offered his congratulations and pointed out that the Falcon 9 rocket launched Monday carried a satellite built by Orbital Sciences.”All of us at Orbital believe in developing the capability to fly payloads, spacecraft and rockets into space on a commercial basis,” Culbertson said. “We support government customers, private customers and now we’re supporting the International Space Station and its research. We intend to continue growing that business as do other companies.”A thriving commercial launch industry will support scientific research by making it “more readily accessible to people on Earth because they can participate in what’s going on in space,” he said.”It also means the space station will continue to grow in relevance and productivity, which will allow us to have a future for human spaceflight in this country and a future for our children to go into space to explore. If we keep the space station going, we will have that future. So it’s important that we do that.”Like SpaceX, Orbital is working on upgrades that will enable the Antares rocket to carry heavier payloads. And like SpaceX, Orbital hopes to sell its booster to a variety of customers.”By the fourth (station resupply) mission we’ll have an upgraded version that will fly more payload,” Culbertson said. “We’re also looking long range at what the configuration of the Antares will be, both from an engine standpoint and from an upper stage standpoint.”So we’ve got plans in work … and we are negotiating with people for other payloads besides the Cygnus spacecraft and intend to fly more than just cargo out of Wallops here. So we do have big plans.”John Glenn Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The historic first orbital flight by an American is marked by this commemorative patch for John Glenn and Friendship 7.Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is available in our store.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: January 14, 2005Initial pictures of Saturn’s moon Titan snapped by Europe’s Huygens probe during its historic atmospheric descent and touchdown today show an active world likely carved by the flow of cryogenic liquids that may still pool on its frigid surface, a leading planetary scientist says. This raw image was returned by the Descent Imager/Spectral Radiometer camera onboard the European Space Agency’s Huygens probe after the probe descended through the atmosphere of Titan. It shows the surface of Titan with ice blocks strewn around. The size and distance of the blocks will be determined when the image is properly processed. Credit: ESA/NASA/University of ArizonaLarger than Pluto and Mercury, Titan is the only moon in the solar system with a thick atmosphere and researchers expected Huygens to find a truly alien landscape under the smoggy haze. They got what they wanted.”Surprises are always the things that get you,” said Torrence Johnson, a member of NASA’s Cassini imaging team at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. “We’d hoped for a strange surface, it’s always nice to see something like a science fiction movie or whatever, but this is exceeding our expectations.”I mean, this is not a landscape filled with impact craters and a few ridges and hills. It’s an active, living place that’s interacting with its atmosphere just like Earth and ancient Mars did. And yet it’s doing this in a completely different environment, where it’s not water and rain from clouds of water that are doing things. You’re dealing with what we would regard as cryogenic things here on the Earth, cold liquid gases, basically, and yet it’s producing a place that looks strangely familiar.”The European Space Agency released three images from Huygens’ camera late today, showing the looming surface from 10 miles up, from five miles and finally, from the surface itself. The first image shows what appear to be erosion-carved gullies snaking down through light-shaded terrain to what looks like a long shoreline bordering a dark, featureless plain. Or lake.Scientists speculated for years that ethane and methane should exist in liquid form on Titan’s surface because of the nature of its nitrogen-dominated atmosphere, low temperatures and other factors. But recent ground-based observations seemed to rule out the possibility of global oceans. Initial data from the Cassini orbiter that carried Huygens to Titan found no definitive evidence of smaller bodies of liquids.But the Huygens photo indicates liquids almost certainly flowed in the past, if not the present. They also show light-shaded areas seen in Cassini orbiter photos likely are slightly elevated and that darker areas are relatively flat, lower-lying features. The latter are candidates for past or present lakes or flood plains. This is one of the first raw images returned by the ESA Huygens probe during its successful descent. It was taken from an altitude of 16.2 kilometres with a resolution of approximately 40 metres per pixel. It apparently shows short, stubby drainage channels leading to a shoreline. Credit: ESA/NASA TV”This picture, many people have told me, that looks something like the Earth, sort of like Mars,” Johnson said. “The reason it has that impression to you is that is an eroded surface, you see things that look like channels and so forth. When you look at the moon, when you look at the uplands of Mars, you don’t see that, you see barren landscapes with impact craters on them. So this is telling us for sure, this is an active area.”It also implies very strongly that the light area is, in fact, slightly elevated because you don’t have stream channels that run up hill. They all run downhill, and it looks like a lot of that darker area is, in fact, smooth, dark area. Now, we don’t know whether that’s liquid now, but it certainly looks like liquid and in this case, water is not what we’re talking about. On Mars, when you’re talking liquid and liquid erosion, you’re talking water. On Titan, what you’re talking about with the temperatures at Titan’s surface, less than 300 degrees below zero Fahrenheit, the only thing that’s liquid is natural gas. And that’s coming out of the atmosphere, liquid ethane and methane.”So these channels have probably been cut in slightly elevated ice, which is playing the role of rock, and then producing tarry substances that run down hill and make these smooth areas,” Johnson said. “How long ago that occurred, whether there’s still liquid in some of those areas, we don’t know. But a picture like that can really start unlocking some of the mysteries we’ve been debating about looking at the data from the orbiter. And in turn, that means we can take the orbiter data and get a much better global perspective about what’s going on on Titan.” An artist’s concept shows Huygens parachuting to Titan after deployment from the Cassini orbiter. Credit: EADS AstriumThe picture Huygens snapped on the surface of Titan showed what looks like rocks strewn over a plain stretching away to a hazy horizon. The scene looked remarkably similar to pictures taken by the Mars rover, Spirit, in Gusev Crater. But Huygens didn’t spot silicon-based rocks like those on Earth.”It’s probably ice, water ice,” Johnson said. “Water ice is a really good rock at the temperatures at Titan’s surface. Again, to a geologist, that shouts erosion and you see the blocks are rounded like rocks in the bottom of a stream bed on Earth.”While no liquids are visible in the picture, “I think most of my geological colleagues would agree that what’s happened here, we’re probably looking at an area that’s flowed out from someplace that has been eroded by these ethane, methane liquids, it carried ice boulders of water ice with them, rounded them in the process and left them in sort of an outwash plain.”Johnson said the data seen today represents “the tip of the iceberg.””These are just a few snippets out of the data set from the images alone,” he said. “We also have a vast array of chemical data about the atmosphere. … In the next few days, we’ll start getting detailed read outs about what’s in the atmosphere, what’s raining down on the surface and what that surface looks like in great detail.”Stay tuned!Video coverage for subscribers only:VIDEO:THE FIRST PICTURE FROM HUYGENS IS REVEALED VIDEO:HUYGENS POST-LANDING NEWS BRIEFING VIDEO:STATUS REPORT DURING DESCENT AUDIO:TODAY’S STATUS REPORT DURING DESCENT VIDEO:HUYGENS PRE-ARRIVAL NEWS BRIEFING AUDIO:HUYGENS PRE-ARRIVAL NEWS BRIEFING VIDEO:OVERVIEW OF HUYGENS PROBE’S SCIENCE OBJECTIVES VIDEO:JULY NEWS BRIEFING ON CASSINI’S PICTURES OF TITAN VIDEO:PICTURES SHOWING TITAN SURFACE FROM OCT.

Afternearly seven years, we finally got there! This marks the beginning of thescientific investigation for the people who will study the planet’smagnetosphere.”Bill Kurth, Cassini team member and UI senior research scientist, comparedthe bow shock to a sonic boom.”The bow shock is similar to a jet aircraft sonic boom that forms across thefront of the plane. The charged particles flowing from the sun, called thesolar wind, pass Saturn and the other planets at a speed of about onemillion miles an hour. We can compare the position of the bow shock with thepressure of the solar wind to learn something about the size of Saturn’smagnetosphere and how much its size is controlled by the solar wind,” hesays.The June 27 Cassini bow shock crossing occurred at a distance of 49.2 Saturnradii (2.97 million kilometers or 1.84 million miles) from Saturn and standsin contrast to first encounters by previous spacecraft, all of which tookplace much closer to the planet. The Pioneer spacecraft first crossedSaturn’s bow shock at 23.7 Saturn radii, while Voyager 1 and Voyager 2recorded crossings at 26.2 and 31.9 Saturn radii, respectively. Gurnett saysthe difference between Cassini and the other spacecraft is probably due todifferent flight trajectories.”Cassini has encountered the bow shock quite a bit further out because thespacecraft is coming in from the side of the planet. So our approach angleis different from those of the other craft, primarily because Cassini isgoing to be placed into orbit about Saturn, while the other spacecraft madefly-bys,” he says.The radio sounds of Saturn and other sounds of space can be heard byvisiting Gurnett’s Web site at: Cassini, carrying 12 scientific instruments, is on its way to the June 30,2004 planetary rendezvous, when it will become the first spacecraft to orbitSaturn and begin a four-year study of the planet, its rings and its 31 knownmoons.

Posted: April 12, 2004In Einstein’s theory of general relativity, space is transformedfrom the Newtonian idea of a vast emptiness with nothing but theforce of gravity to rule the motion of matter through the universe,to an invisible fabric of spacetime, which “grips” matter and directsits course.Two Observations, One Revolution (From Gravity toSpacetime)Newton’s theory of gravity (1687) is as familiar to us as walkingdown a hill. As we put one foot in front of the other, the invisibleforce of gravity reaches out from the Earth and pulls each foot downto the ground. We feel the pull of the force and let our foot fall tothe ground and we continue down the hill on our merry way. The sameinvisible force that keeps us Earth-bound keeps the planets in orbitaround the Sun. According to Newton, the Sun’s gravity reaches outacross empty space and constantly pulls the planets toward it,preventing them from zooming out of our solar system.This theory remained the strongest explanation for the planetaryorbits and the apparent “falling” motion of objects on Earth forseveral centuries. It was not until the early 20th century whenEinstein began working on his theories of relativity that Newton’stheory of gravity was seriously challenged.In 1905 and 1906 Einstein laid out his theory of specialrelativity in a collection of papers. Central to this theory was hisclaim that the speed of light in a vacuum (299,792 km/sec) was thespeed limit of all matter and energy in the universe. While matterand energy could travel at speeds approaching or equaling the speedof light, they could never surpass it.With this principle in hand, Einstein turned his attention toNewton’s theory of gravity. He focused on two observations thatchallenged Newton’s theory. The first related to the speed limit oflight, and its implications for the speed limit of the force ofgravity. The second related to the Equivalence Principle.Observation #1 – Instant PropagationProblemNewton stated that the attractive force of gravity emanated from allmatter, but he did not explain how it physically transmitted from onemass to another, nor how long this transmission took to occur. Hesimply inferred that the force of gravity traveled instantly acrossempty space, propagating from one mass to another.However, Einstein, along with other scientists, began to questionthis conclusion around the turn of the 20th century. In the 19thcentury, Maxwell had shown that light and energy, includingelectricity and magnetism, propagated at the same finite rate in avacuum – 299,792 km/sec. Einstein’s theory of special relativityconcluded that this rate was the speed limit for all energy in theuniverse. If gravity was a force that transmitted between masses inthe same way light propagated through space, the force of gravityshould be equally restricted to 299,792 km/sec. While crossingnearly three hundred thousand kilometers each second is extremelyfast, it is not instantaneous.Just look at the Sun’s light crossing our solar system. Light, inthe form of photons, flies out of the Sun at the speed of lighttoward the inner and outer planets. These photons cross enormousdistances very rapidly. But even at this rate, minutes and evenhours pass before they reach the planets (~8.3 minutes to Earth; ~5.5hours to Pluto).If the force of gravity could travel no faster than the speed oflight, then gravity was certainly not traveling instantaneouslyacross space. If the force of the Sun’s gravity did not transmitinstantly, but instead took a definite amount of time to reach theplanets, then something was wrong with the actual orbits of theplanets. Instead of following their observed orbits, the paths ofthe planets should be slightly different.Was Newton’s theory wrong, even though it mathematically agreedwith the actual orbits of the planets? Or was Einstein’s conclusionmistaken, meaning that gravity was not like other forces and actuallycould transmit instantly?Einstein believed that he was not mistaken. Even though Newton’stheory explained the planets’ orbits to a great extent, it did nottell the whole story. Over the next ten years, Einstein worked tofind the answer to the instant propagation problem.Observation #2 – The EquivalencePrincipleA second problem that Einstein encountered was related to theEquivalence Principle. This principle asserts that the motion ofobjects in the presence of a gravitational field is equivalent to themotion of objects in an accelerating frame of reference. If you dropa hammer on Earth, it falls to the ground at exactly the same rate aswhen you drop the hammer in an accelerating spaceship.Let’s break this down a bit. In a spaceship accelerating upwardsat 9.8 m/s2, any object will fall to the floor at 9.8 m/s2. OnEarth, any object you drop will accelerate to the ground at 9.8 m/s2.Since this is true, it raises the question of why things fall at allon Earth. If the objects are simply accelerating down, instead of”falling,” could it be that the ground is actually acceleratingupwards?The mere possibility that this could be true was a problem forEinstein. If all motion appeared the same in both frames ofreference (the ground and the spaceship) then gravity could not beresponsible for both motions. An observer could not tell thedifference between gravity and an accelerating frame of reference, sothe force of gravity could not be a conclusive explanation for thefalling motion of objects in the universe. What exactly was it thatcaused objects to accelerate towards the ground on Earth?A New Understanding: CurvedSpacetimeIn 1916, Einstein addressed these two matters (the instantpropagation problem and the equivalence of gravity and anaccelerating frame of reference) by reconstructing the theory ofgravity. Einstein presented the world with a new understanding ofhow the universe worked – his theory of general relativity. In thistheory, space is not an empty void, but an invisible structure calledspacetime. Nor is space simply a three-dimensional grid through whichmatter, light, and energy move. It is a structure whose shape iscurved and twisted by the presence and motion of matter and energy.Around any mass (or energy), spacetime is curved. The presence ofplanets, stars and galaxies deform the fabric of spacetime like abowling ball deforms a bedsheet. (Spacetime deforms in fourdimensions, so the two-dimensional bedsheet is a limited model. Tryvisualizing these depressions on all sides of a planet to build amore accurate image of this concept.)When a smaller mass passes near a larger mass, it curves towardthe larger mass because spacetime itself is curved toward the largermass. The smaller mass is not “attracted” to the larger mass by anyforce. The smaller mass simply follows the curve of spacetime nearthe larger mass. For example, the massive Sun curves spacetime aroundit, a curvature that reaches out to the edges of the solar system andbeyond. The planets orbiting the Sun are not being pulled by the Sun;they are following the curved spacetime deformed by the Sun.The Second Implication:Frame-DraggingTwo years after Einstein submitted his theory of curved spacetime,Austrian physi-cists Joseph Lense and Hans Thirring predicted that amass could deform spacetime in a second way – through frame-dragging(1918). They proposed that the rotation of planets and stars or anyrotating mass twists the structure of spacetime near that mass. Notonly is local spacetime curved near the Sun, it is twisted by theSun’s rotation. Lense and Thirring predicted this effect to beextremely small, and would become smaller farther from the rotatingmass, but it would occur around every rotating mass, be it a planet,a star, a galaxy, or a person.Einstein May Be Right, But Newton’s Theory isStill UsefulFrom this description of the differences found in Newton’s theoryof gravity and Einstein’s resolution of them, one may get theimpression that Einstein’s theory of general relativity completelyreplaces Newton’s theory of gravity. Now that we are in possession ofEinstein’s concept of spacetime, should we toss “the force ofgravity” out of our physics conversations? No. We need to retain bothEinstein’s theory of curved spacetime and Newton’s theory of gravityin order to understand our universe.Einstein’s theory does provide us with a more accurateunderstanding of the underlying structure of the universe. However,unless one observes phenomena moving near or at the speed of light(e.g., starlight, radio waves, quasar jets) or near enormous masses(e.g., neutron stars, galaxies, black holes), the actual effects ofcurved spacetime and frame-dragging are barely distinguishable fromthose predicted by Newton’s theory of gravity. In our common physicalexperience on Earth, where the fastest phenomena rarely reach 0.0001%of the speed of light, Newton’s theory of gravity suffices. Itsmathematics are much, much simpler than the mathematics of motion incurved spacetime, and it provides a functional picture of ourphysical world.Previous Tests of General RelativityEinstein was well aware that scientists would want empirical proofif they were to accept his theory of curved spacetime. He offeredthree specific phenomena that curved spacetime could explain -starlight deflection, the error in Newton’s description of Mercury’sorbital precession, and the gravitational redshift. Over the pastcentury, scientists have closely observed these phenomena, inaddition to examining a fourth phenomenon known as the Shapirotime-delay.Starlight DeflectionThe central premise of Einstein’s general theory of relativity isthat all matter and energy moving through the universe are affectedby curved spacetime. This includes the path of light rays as theyemerge from distant stars and make their way across the universe toour Earth-based telescopes and eyes. When their light passes near amassive body, such as a galaxy or our Sun, its path is deflectedslightly.In 1919, merely three years after Einstein published his theory,Frank Dyson (Great Britain’s Astronomer Royal at that time), CharlesDavidson, and Arthur Eddington took on the challenge of observing andmeasuring this phenomenon. They compared photographs of a selectedarea of the night sky with photographs taken of the same area duringa solar eclipse. Looking at these photographs, it became apparentthat stars that should have been behind the Sun were actually visibleduring the eclipse. Their light was bending through curved spacetimearound the Sun’s mass. The result was limited by the short amount oftime available to make the measurement during an eclipse (about fourminutes), but it confirmed Einstein’s prediction to within about 20%.In 1920, Arthur Eddington wrote a book entitled: “Space, Time, andGravitation,” which described this phenomenon. Since then, theresults have been reproduced to higher and higher precision, as thetechnology for observing stars has improved.Between 1969 and 1975, twelve measurements were made using radiotelescopes to measure the deflection of radio waves from a distantquasar around a galaxy. These measurements matched generalrelativity’s predictions to within 1%, and now the results are goodto about 0.1%.Mercury’s Perihelion PrecessionAs Mercury orbits the Sun, it does not follow the exact sameelliptical path each year. As it goes around, Mercury’s orbit slowlyturns, or precesses, in the direction of its revolution around theSun. Its perihelion point (the point of orbit closest to the Sun)shifts slightly each time around. Astronomers have observed thatover every one hundred years Mercury’s orbit has precessed another574 arcseconds around (0.16?).Newton’s theory of gravity largely accounted for this phenomenonand explained that it is caused by the gravitational perturbations ofthe other planets. But it did not completely account for what isobserved. Each century, Mercury’s orbit precesses a little fartherthan Newton’s equations predicted – 43 arcseconds more, to be precise.When Einstein’s equations were applied to the orbit of Mercury, itwas a precise success. Einstein’s calculations predicted thatMercury’s orbit would precess 43 arcseconds/year more than Newton’sequations predicted. This matched the astronomers’ observationsexactly. The additional 43 arcseconds were a natural effect ofMercury’s motion through the spacetime curved by the Sun.Gravitational RedshiftAnother phenomenon predicted by Einstein’s general theory ofrelativity is that light loses energy as it emerges from agravitational field. When light loses energy, its wavelength becomeslonger and the color of the light shifts toward the red end of thespectrum (thus called the “redshift”).Two key tests of the gravitational redshift are the Pound-RebkaExperiment and NASA’s Gravity Probe A. In 1960, physicists RobertPound and Glen Rebka were able to detect the redshift of high-energygamma rays in an elevator shaft at Harvard University. They sentgamma rays up from the bottom of the shaft to a sensor 74 feet high.As the gamma rays climbed the 74 feet out of Earth’s gravitationalfield, they lost a minuscule amount of energy (~ 2 parts in atrillion), which Pound and Rebka were able to detect. Theirmeasurement agreed with Einstein’s predictions to within 10%, laterimproved to about 2%.A more precise test of the redshift was conducted by Gravity ProbeA in 1976, a rocket-based experiment, also known as the Vessot-Levinetest. In this experiment, a hydrogen-maser clock was launched to analtitude of 6,000 miles. The frequency of the clock in flight wascompared to the frequency of a matching clock on the ground. Theexperiment revealed that the frequencies of the clocks differedslightly, matching Einstein’s predictions to within 70 parts permillion.Shapiro Time-DelayIn 1964, Irwin Shapiro, an astrophysicist at Harvard University,identified another phenomenon that Einstein’s curved spacetime shouldcause: the apparent reduction of the speed of light (orelectromagnetic waves) when it passes through a gravitational field.Since 1964, a systematic program has been in place to test thepresence of this phenomenon to a greater and greater precision.Scientists have used radio telescopes to perform “radar ranging” onvarious objects whose distance is precisely known. They began bybouncing signals off of Mercury and Venus.When the line of sight between the Earth and Mercury was far fromthe Sun, the travel time of the signal was barely delayed, if at all.But as the line of sight neared the Sun, the delay increased.Scientists predicted that, according to Einstein’s equations, thesignal would be delayed by 200 microseconds if it traveled right nextto the Sun. When performing the experiment, the result matched thisprediction.In addition to bouncing signals off of Mercury, astronomers havebounced signals off of Venus and off the Mariner 6 and Mariner 7spacecrafts as they orbited Mars. In one of the most precisemeasurements of this time-delay effect, scientists used a transponderleft on the surface of Mars by one of NASA’s Viking landers. Thisexperiment confirmed Einstein’s prediction to within 0.1%.Most recently, in June, 2002, Italian physicists B. Bertotti, L.Iess, and P. Tortora bounced radio waves, as they passed near theSun, off the Cassini spacecraft – a joint NASA and Italian SpaceAgency satellite and probe en route to a rendezvous with Saturn inJuly, 2004. Their observations confirmed Einstein’s prediction towithin 20 parts per million.Why Perform Another Test of GeneralRelativity?We wonder about the stars, about our universe, and about howthings work – wonder is an important part of human life. Gravity isthe most fundamental force in nature; it affects all of us all thetime. But even though we’ve placed men on the Moon, gravity is stillan enigma – we still don’t completely understand it. Einstein’s 1916general theory of relativity forever changed our notions of space andtime, and it gave us a new way to think about gravity.But, although general relativity has become a cornerstone ofmodern physics, it remains one of the least tested theories inphysics. The frame-dragging effect has never been directlyexperimentally verified, and none of the previous tests of thegeodetic effect come close to the precision that will be achieved bythe gyroscopes and SQUID readouts of Gravity Probe B. If we are tocontinue to advance our knowledge of fundamental laws of nature andthe universe, we must experimentally test and verify the predictionsof our theories.Gravity Probe B is one of the most sophisticated physicsexperiments ever attempted. Over 40 years in development, it hasrequired the efforts of dozens of scientists and engineers atStanford University, Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company, NASA’sMarshall Space Flight Center and the Harvard-Smithsonian Center forAstrophysics, along with many others. It has spawned numerousadvances in navigation technology and materials precision. Mostimportantly, it will provide us a glimpse into the sublime structureof our universe.Will Gravity Probe B Verify or RefuteEinstein?Will the results of Gravity Probe B verify Einstein’s theory ofcurved spacetime and frame-dragging, or will Einstein’s theory berefuted? If the former proves true, then we will have made the mostprecise measurement of the shape of local spacetime and confirmed themathematics of general relativity to a new standard of precision. Ifthe latter proves true, then we may be faced with the challenge ofconstructing a new theory of the universe’s structure and the motionof matter.Will Gravity Probe B Reveal Where “Inertia” ComesFrom?One of the fundamental concepts of our physical world is that allobjects at rest or in motion have inertia, or a tendency to keepdoing whatever they are doing. But where does this tendency orproperty come from? Does is come from within matter itself? Or isit related to the underlying universe?In the late 1800’s, Austrian physicist Ernst Mach proposed thatthe property of inertia comes from the motion of matter in thedistant universe. The reason an object resists changes in motion isbecause it is somehow connected to the motion of all the other matterin the universe. It is a gravitational interaction that creates theproperty of inertia.Gravity Probe B’s investigation of frame-dragging will contributeto this question, because for distant matter to affect local matter,there has to be a gravitational link between the two. Einstein’stheory of the geometry of spacetime and the effects of frame-draggingcould explain this link.Mars rover collectible patchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!This commemorative patch celebrates NASA’s Curiosity rover mission of the Mars Science Laboratory in search of clues whether the Red Planet was once hospitable to life.Columbia ReportA reproduction of the official accident investigation report into the loss of the space shuttle Columbia and its crew of seven.

kerana bersubahat juga merupakan satu dosa, kau berada dalam senarai ‘top five’ dalam tingkatan kita.Balas Izzat.Ujar Feera. “Ini surat untuk kamu.Semuanya bermula dengan cinta.Jangan sesekali masuk ke dalam biliknya itu tanpa pengetahuan dan kebenaran dari Lina.”Soal Zaid yang pelik melihat rambut Adi Azri yang sudah terlihat kusut. Aku.’ Belum sempat Qis meneruskan kata-katanya Adam berpaling dan berlalu meninggalkan Qis keseorangan Air mata Qis mengalir lagi Kini semangatnya sudah tiada dia sudah tidak kuat untuk berhadapan dengan masalah itu Akhirnya Qis dengan longlainya melangkah dan terus melangkah Daun-daun kering berguguran setelah ditiup angin kencang dibiarkannya Pannnnnggggg Satu dentuman kuat kedengaran di jalanan Adam berpaling tubuhnya mula menggigil dan menggeletar ketakutan apabila sebuah kenderaan melanggar seorang wanita yang cukup dia kenali Adam dengan sekuat hatinya berlari mendapatkan Qis yang terdampar di atas jalan raya dengan darah berlumuran di kepalanya Tudungnya berubah kemerah-merahan darah Adam panik Dia mula menjerit meminta tolong Sejurus kemudian Qis dirawat di bilik pembedahan Adam yang masih dalam keadaan terkejut tidak mampu untuk bersuara apabila ibu Qis mengajukan soalan kepadanya Dalam fikirannya dia bersalah ‘Ya Aku bersalah ‘Ayah Adam yang bersalah Adam marah Qis tinggikan suara pada Qis Adam tinggalkan dia seorang…’ rintih Adam yang kini terduduk di pangkuan ayahnya ‘Adam Adam tidak bersalah jangan salahkan diri nak kita sama-sama doakan keselamatan Qis’ kata Cikgu Iskandar Bertambah runtun hatinya melihat anak bongsunya yang kelihatan amat lemah bagai ada satu beban yang berat dibahunya Tidak lama kemudian… ‘ Doktor bagaimana keadaan anak saya Tanya ayah Qis dengan penuh harapan agar semuanya selamat sahaja ‘Jangan risau anak encik sekarang telah melepasi tahap kritikal tapi mungkin agak berat untuk encik terima satu hal ini Qis anak encik buta Hentakkan yang kuat pada kepalanya telah menyebabkan penglihatannya terjejas Saya minta maaf harap encik dan keluarga bersabar’ Kata doktor tenang Di belakang Adam jatuh tersungkur menyembah bumi Perasaan bersalahnya semakin bertambah terhadap sahabat baiknya Adam mula teringat akan kenangan mereka ketika masih kecil Memori itu satu-persatu menerpa ingatannya Qis kini buta Buta disebabkan oleh dirinya sendiri Adam lemah Hatinya hancur luluh bak kaca yang terhempas di lantai Qis boleh melihat semula tetapi dia memerlukan penderma mata dengan demikian semuanya akan menjadi sedia kala Mulai pada saat Qis tidak mampu lagi melihat keindahan dunia Adam tidak pernah berenggang dengannya Sebaliknya Adam berusaha membantu Qis belajar untuk menghadapi peperiksaan SPM Qis yang kini telah ditempatkan di sekolah khas yang mempunyai keistimewaan yang sama sepertinya Walaupun Qis terpaksa menempuhi dunia barunya namun ketabahan hatinya yang kuat telah membantu Qis lebih bersemangat untuk meneruskan perjuangan hidupnya Tambahan pula sahabat baiknya Adam dan keluarganya yang banyak memberi dorongan dan kekuatan untuk terus menghadapi dugaan hidup Meskipun hakikatnya teramat sukar untuk Qis menerima kenyataan bahawa dia kini bukan lagi seperti dulu kini dia tidak mampu melihat duniawi yang ada hanya kegelapan cuma Beberapa bulan kemudian Qis dan Adam akhirnya ternyata tidak mengecewakan kedua ibu bapa mereka Mereka sama-sama mendapat keputusan yang sangat cemerlang dalam peperiksaan SPM iaitu masing-masing mendapat 10 A1 Terbuktilah kecacatan yang dialami oleh Qis itu tidak menjadi batu penghalang untuk dia menempah kejayaan dalam pendidikan Sebaliknya Qis kini menjadi matang dan tabah dalam mengharungi kehidupannya ‘Qis Berita baik Qis Kau telah mendapat penderma mata yang sesuai dengan kau Kau akan melihat semula sahabatku Kau akan melihat semua keindahan ciptaan Tuhan’ Kata Adam yang riang gembira bagaikan tak terkata Wajahnya yang kelihatan berseri-seri itu menandakan keriangan yang benar-benar dirasai Doanya kini termakbul ‘Adam kau tidak perlu bagi aku harapan sebegitu Aku tahu kau sedih aku hidup dalam keadaan begini tapi kini aku sudah tidak kisah aku biasa hidup begini’ Bibirnya mengukirkan senyuman Qis tidak mempercayai apa yang dikatakan oleh Adam Qis tidak mahu kecewa dia tidak mahu menaruh apa-apa harapan lagi Dia akur dengan ketentuan Tuhan Jauh di sudut hatinya Qis pasti ada hikmahnya disebalik semua ini Namun perasaan ketidakpercayaan Qis cuma bersifat sementara apabila ayahnya sendiri juga mengatakan hal yang sama Qis kini berada di dalam bilik pembedahan dan dia kini sedang bertarung dengan kematian untuk terus hidup Satu jam dua jam empat jam… Adam mula tidak senang duduk dia membiarkan dirinya terus dikuasai oleh perasaan risau Adam mundar-mandir di hadapan bilik pembedahan Sesekali Adam ditegur oleh ayah Qis Selang beberapa jam kemudian bilik pembedahan kemudian terbuka luas dan secara langsung Doktor Ng berjalan menghampiri dua buah keluarga yang sesungguhnya mengharapkan satu keajaiban berlaku ‘Syukurlah ketabahan anak perempuan encik telah membuahkan hasil Dia kini boleh melihat semula Tapi buat masa ini berikan dia ruang untuk berehat Esok pagi baru kami izinkan encik dan keluarga menjenguknya Terima kasih’ kata doktor Ng dengan senyuman Doktor Ng berlalu pergi ‘ Terima kasih doktor terima kasih Jasa doktor hanya Tuhan saja yang mampu membalas jasa baik doktor’kata ayah Qis yang berasa teramat-amat bersyukur atas keselamatan anaknya Qis Kini Qis telah selamat dan boleh melihat keindahan dunia semula Tuhan saja yang tahu akan kegembiraannya pada saat dia boleh melihat wajah-wajah yang cukup dikasihinya Semua bagaikan sebuah mimpi keajaiban berlaku dan kini dia sama seperti mereka yang lain Bukan lagi kegelapan tetapi sebaliknya sinar kebahagiaan terpancar semula Dalam hati Qis dia berasa beruntung kerana dilahirkan dalam keluarga yang tidak pernah mengenal erti putus asa keluarga angkatnya iaitu keluarga Adam yang juga tidak putus-putus dalam memberi sumbangan ikhlas dan Adam satu-satunya sahabat baiknya yang sanggup bersusah senang dengannya selama ini Qis tidak pernah berhenti mengucap syukur kepada Tuhan kerana memberinya kesempatan untuk melihat kembali dan sentiasa dikelilingi oleh mereka yang amat menyayanginya ‘Adam kau sahabat aku dulu kini dan selamanya’ Bisik Qis dalam hatinya Qis bahagia kini persahabatan Qis dan Adam terus terjalin mereka menjalankan kehidupan bersama susah dan senang gembira dan duka semua dikongsi bersama dan ia berkekalan selama-lamanya ‘Qis!tabah melihat penderitaan suaminya. Menunggu.Dan hari bahagia menjelma juga buat kedua-duanya Berwalikan walid Munir dinikahkan penuh adab Islam dengan gilang gemilangnya walaupun Munir terpaksa mengulang dua kali lafaz akad Bukan kerana tidak sempurna akad pertama tetapi kenakalan saksi-saksi dan walid yang sengaja mahu melihat kekalutan Munir Apapun Miftahul Huda sudah dalam gengamannya itulah cita-cita yang Munir benar-benar menunggu sejak dia kenal rasa cinta terhadap wanita itu Dan Miftahul Huda juga merelakan dirinya diikat kepada Munir sebab sememangnya dia sanggup menyerahkan kehidupannya kepada Munir sejak dia tertawan dengan sikap Munir yang penuh hikmahNyatanya kedua-duanya tidak terpikat kerana keperawanan masing-masing walaupun Munir boleh sahaja mencairkan jiwa berduyun-duyun perempuan dengan senyum dan pandangan matanya yang maskulin Lelaki mana yang tidak terdetak hatinya melihat wajah ayu Huda walaupun telah tertutup sempurna semua auratnya Miftahul Huda yang sangat terkenal apabila mula-mula mengenakan sarung tangan ke sekolah menjadi ikutan pula gadis-gadis lain Bibir Huda merah merekah hidungnya sederhana mancung dan matanya ah itulah yang paling berbisa alisnya hitam tebal seolah-olah dikenakan maskara anak matanya juga hitam berkilat dan apabila mata itu merenung seperti menyihir lelaki-lelaki agar datang dekat kepadanya Kerana itulah Munir meminta agar Huda sentiasa menundukkan pandangan lebih kepada kerana cemburunya dia kepada lelaki-lelaki yang tidak reti menjaga pandangan Dan kini Munir tidak perlu berselindung untuk menatap puas-puas wajah pujaannya itu“Kenapa Nir tengok Iftah macam tu” Pipi gebu yang tadi putih melepak dilanda merah apabila Munir tidak berkelip menatap wajah isterinya Mereka berdua-duaan di bilik waktu itu sesuai lakunya pengantin sehari bila malam menyapa“Kenapa tak boleh Nir tengok isteri Nir”“Bukan tak boleh tapi Iftah segan”“Kenapa segan Nir dah jadi milik Iftah Iftah dah jadi milik Nir Ha Iftah pun tenunglah Nir puas-puas” Munir berseloroh menyebabkan Miftah tergelak halus Itulah yang Munir tunggu dari Miftah tawanya yang tidak dapat dinikmati sebelum ini Indah wajah Miftah bila sedang riang ditambah dengan adab yang masih dijaga walau sedang bersama suami Hati Munir berbunga riang“Iftah tak tahu macam mana gelora jiwa Nir bila hari-hari jumpa Iftah tapi tak dapat nak tatap keayuan wajah Iftah” Munir menceritakan“Adakah kerana wajah ini Nir bernikah dengan Iftah” Miftah mendugaMunir berfikir lama Masakan tidak kerana keayuan itulah Munir tidak banyak memberontak dengan keputusan keluarganya Tetapi tarikan utama Miftah bukan pada kecantikan yang tidak terperi itu tetapi kemuliaan lakunya“Emmm ada menyumbang” Munir menjawab“Kalaulah Iftah tak cantik adakah Nir masih inginkan Iftah” Miftah masih mendugaSoalan itu membuatkan Munir terkedu lalu diam menyapa seketika Munir memikirkan jawapan yang terindah“Ada empat perkara yang dilihat pada wanita Keturunannya kekayaannya kecantikannya dan agamanya Maka Nir melihat kempat-empatnya tapi Nir mengikut saran Rasulullah melihat agama sebagai keutamaan Dan yang paling memikat Nir adalah keanggunan Iftah dalam budi bahasa Kecantikan Iftah mengikat Nir agar sentiasa menunggu Iftah Kenapa Iftah Tanya macam ni Kecantikan memang aset Iftah syukurlah terhadap pemberian tuhan” Munir menjawab agar Miftah berpuas hati“Kalau lepas ni Iftah jadu hodoh apa Nir masih sayang Iftah” Miftah tidak lagi bepuas hati dia menduga dengan soalan yang seterusnya“Iftah hodoh atau cantik dah bukan soalnya Nir akan selalu sayang Iftah sampai bila-bila Sampai bila-bila tahu” Munir menegaskan katanya Dicuitnya hidung Miftah menyebabkan Miftah merenget manja dan memegang erat tangan Munir itu diletakkan diribaannya“Atau sebenarnya selama ni Iftah pakai topeng Muka Iftah macam nenek kebayan ya” Munir masih menyakat dan balasannya adalah tamparan lembut Miftah pada tangannya Tamparan sayang “Ada-ada aja la Nir nih”“Nir akan sentiasa sayang seorang perempuan yang bernama Miftahul Huda”“Iftah akan sayang selalu seorang lelaki yang bernama Munir” Miftah mengikut dialog Munir“Mula-mula Munir sayang Allah kemudian Rasulullah kemudian umi lepas tu abi ma walid dan Miftahul Huda” Munir menyusul penuh manja Miftah yang mendengar berbunga riang walaupun namanya yang terakhir Itulah yang selayaknya“Mula-mula Miftahul Huda sayang Allah kemudian Rasulullah kemudian Munir” Miftah pula mengikutHati Munir sudah sangat berbunga sayang dan bahagia dirapati Miftah dan diciumnya ubun-ubun gadis itu Halus dan hangat Kehangatan itu sampai ke hati Miftah dan air mata syahdu mengalir ke pipinya Munir menanggalkan kelubung yang masih menutup kemas kepala Miftahul Huda dengan lembut Miftah diam sahaja Kaget barangkali kerana belum ada lelaki lain selain keluarga yang mahram melihat tanpa kelubung Maka terlihatlah rambut Miftahul Huda yang panjang dan lembut menambahkan keserian wanita perawan ituMunir sekali lagi mencium ubun-ubun Miftah “Nir tak akan mensia-siakan kurniaan tuhan yang cukup berharga seperti Miftah” Munir berkata syahdu“Iftah juga” Miftah mengiakan seraya mencium tangan suami yang tercinta Dan malam itu mereka berbahagia sebagai pasangan yang diredhai AllahHari itu Munir mengalami sakit kepala yang teramat Mungkin kerana tidak cukup tidur memandangkan begitu ramai pesakit yang perlu dirawat Munir baru beberapa minggu bertugas sebgai doktor di Hospital itu masih belum begitu sesuaikan diriTiba-tiba pintu biliknya diketuk seorang jururawat\”Dr Munir anda diperlukan di bilik kecemasan ada pesakit yang perlu dibedah kerana kecelakaan jalan raya\”“Ya saya bergegas ke sana” Cepat-cepat Munir mengatur langkah walaupun sakit kepalanya masih terasa Dia masuk ke bilik kecemasan menuju bilik operasi Lalu dia menuju ke kumpulan perawat yang terdiri daripada beberapa dockor dan jururawat Kali ini Munir bertugas sebagai doktor yang utama melakukan pembedahan Munir sepatutnya boleh sahaja menolak kerana keadaannya yang benar-benar sakit kepala Tetapi mengingatkan dia masih dalam tempoh percubaan terlalu manja mengadu boleh membuat orang benci Lalu digagahkan juga diri melakukan pembedahan ituKaki pesakir selesai dipotong Teruk kecederaanya kerana digilis tayar lori Waktu itulah Munir dilanda sakit kepala yang tidak tertahan Dibukanya sarung tangan yang berlumuran darah tanpa sengaja untuk mengurut kepala yang sangat sakit Semua berlaku dengan pantas apabila pisau bedah yang dipegang seorang jururawat untuk diberi kepada Munir terkena tangannya itu dan tangan Munir yang sedang luka kecil terdedah kepada darah yang pekat di katil pesakit apabila dia menahan dirinya dari jatuh di katil pesakit itu Semuanya berlaku sekelip mata Munir dipapah keluar oleh jururawat untuk berehat sedang luka yang terdedah itu tidak disedari sesiapa malahan Munir sendiri“Munir anda positif” Itulah kata-kata yang paling mengoyakkan jiwa Munir hari itu Bagaimana akan ditempuh hari-hari yang mendatang menghitung saat-saat kematian Dan Miftahul Huda Bagaimana dia menerima berita ini Bagaimana pula Miftahul Aqilah dan Zaid Naiman Bagaimana abi dan umi bagaimana ma dan walid Bagaimana!! Dia perlu tahu apa sebenarnya yang berlaku. tapi dia takut terpikat dengan cikgunya sendiri. sebaik dia pulang dari outstation.
” Mila duduk sebelah aku.” Dia berdiri dekat luar kelas memandang kearah aku Dan tersenyum. nak tanya sikit. Dah siap, Hafiz mengangkat kening.“Apit! Egy yang tadi seakan Hang Tuah yang ingin menyelamatkan Tun Teja terus tersembab di muka pintu. Penyamarannya selama sebulan ini sudah berakhir. Nampak tak? Niatnya untuk menyertai perkhemahan itu.Sejenak aku renung ke sekeliling pejabat tu, berpangkat dan berpengaruh. Begitu juga Firdaus. Sejujurnya dia cemburu. “Mark!” Saffiya meluru mendapatkan lelaki ituDirangkul erat lelaki kacukan itu “Bila you balik” “Petang tadi” tangan Mark melingkari pinggang ramping Saffiya Gadis molek itu merelakan saja perlakuan lelaki kesayangannya “Look at you nowGorgeous ” mata Mark puas meratah segenap tubuh Saffiya Dengan hanya mengenakan singlet ketat dan skirt pendek itu saja sudah cukup untuk mencabar keimanan sang buaya “FifiI miss you Boleh temankan I malam ni” tanya Mark sambil mengenyit matanya Saffiya tersenyum nakal “Let me think it first”Saffiya membuka matanya perlahan-lahan Seluruh tubuhnya terasa begitu lemah sekali Dia memandang sekeliling Kemudian kedua pergelengan tangannya Masih bernyawa lagi hambu-Mu ini Ya-Allah “Dah bangun” sapa Azhan yang duduk di sisi Saffiya dari tadi Saffiya cuba untuk bangun namun pantas dihalang Azhan “Jangan banyak bergerakAwak lemah lagiKena bnyak rehat”Nasihat AzhanSaffiya mengeluh “Kak Humaira mana” perlahan sekali suaranya seolah berbisik “Ada kat kedai Saffisaya nak panggil doctor sekejapAwak jangan tidur tau” pesan Azhan lalu meninggalkan Saffiya di situ “Jamilahkita umat Islam di muka bumi iniperlu saling membantusaling menyokong Bukannya saling mengutuk dan menjatuhkan Salah tu”Jamilah tundukDibiarkan saja Humaira berkhutbah di hadapannya “”Kamu tahu kan ganjaran yang akan kamu dapat sekiranya kamu sendiri membantu Saffiya kembali ke pangkal jalan Berlipat ganda pahalanya Tapi sebaliknya yang kamu terima bila kamu terus-menerus mencemuh dia” “Tapi kaksaya tak suka diaLagipunkalau saya tolong dia punbukannya berbaloi Ibadat yang dia buat kosong kakkalau rambut masih celup kuning lagi” lancing sekali Jamilah berkata-kata “Jamilah Siapa kamu untuk menentukan sah atau tidak amalan seseorang Kamu tiada hak Kamu tahu tak Setiap orang yang bertaubat dia diibaratkan lahir semula dari perut ibu Putihbersih dan suci dari dosa Tolonglah buang perasaan busuk hati kamu Gara-gara kamu dia terlantar kat hospital” Humairah duduk di kerusinya “Itu salah dia sendiriSyaitan dah biasa bertenggek kat dia Itulah sebab dia jadi macam tu” sinis sekali bunyinya “Astarghfirullah al-azim SudahlahJamilahMembazir masa je cakap dengan kamu niAkak nak pergi hospital Tolong jaga kedai” Humairah mengambil beg tangannya “Mudah-mudahan Allah beri petunjuk supaya kamu sedar kesilapan kamu” ujar Humaira sambil menepuk bahu JamilahAzhan memimpin tangan Saffiya berjalan ke taman mini di halaman rumah Sudah 2 hari dia terperuk di rumah sejak keluar dari hospital tempoh hari “Awak akan menjadi hamba Allah yang mati sia-sia sekiranya maut datang menjemput awak hari tu”Saffiya merenung Azhan yang tenang itu “Bunuh diri adalah salah satu daripada dosa yang besar Tak cium bau syurga tau Hanya orang yang tiada pegangan agama tiada Tuhan yang menggunakan cara ini sebagai panyelesaian terbaik” Azhan menarik nafasnya “Saya jahil Saya tak tahu apa-apa” Saffiya mulai sebak “Dugaan yang awak hadapi tu tak besar Saffi Pada masa akan datang dugaan yang lebih besar daripada ni yang akan awak hadapi Ini salah satu caranya Allah nak tengok sekuat mana pegangan agama umatnyaseteguh mana imannya dan sejauh mana kepercayaannya terhadap Penciptanya sendiri”Saffiya kaku Kata-kata Azhan itu begitu menyentap jiwanyaAlhamdulillah Ya Allah Kau masih memberiku peluang kedua untuk memperbaiki kesilapan masa silam ku “Awak kena kuat Saffi Jangan biarkan emosi mempengaruhi diri awak Kak Humaira sedih tengok keadaan awak macam ni Saya sendiri tak sanggup Awak jangan risau saya akan sentiasa ada di sisi awak ketika awak ada masalah” janji AzhanPeluh membasahi dahi Azhan Jantungnya berdegup kencang Tangannya kemas menggenggam erat jemari Saffiya Suasana di dalam bilik bersalin itu sungguh cemas Sesekali Saffiya mengerang kesakitan Kalaulah situasi itu boleh ditukar dia sedia menjadi galang-gantinya “Puan sabar ye” ujar jururawat yang bertugas sambil mengurut lembut perut Saffiya Hati Azhan direntap sayuMelihat kesakitan yang dilalui isterinya bagi menyempurnakan kelahiran zuriat pertama mereka “Doktor dah sampai”Humairah terburu-buru berjalan keluar dari lif Matanya liar ke kiri dan kanan mencari wad yang dihuni Saffiya Kemudian dia berhenti di hadapan wad 3 Anggerik “Assalamualaikum” ucap Humaira ketika menolak daun pintu “Comelnya Ada iras kamu Han” Humaira mengendong bayi kecil itu Azhan memaut bahu isterinya yang masih lemah itu “Han kan ayahnyamestilah ada iras Han”Saffiya hanya tersenyum “Akak lawat siapa tadi Abang Han cakap tadi akak pergi tengok orang sakit” tanya Saffiya “Baru akak teringat Akak lawat Jamilah tadi Ada kat tingkat bawah” ujar Humaira Saffiya berkerut Azhan juga kehairanan ” Sakit apa kak Semalam Han pergi kedai akak dia elok je”Humaira mengeluh panjang Ubun-ubun bayi itu diusapnya perlahan “Akak pun tak tahu Mulut dia bengkak Nak buka pun tak boleh” jelas Humaira Azhan menggeleng “Kesian Jamilah” “Entahlah Saffi Akak rasa orang macam Jamilah tu tak payahlah nak kesian Mungkin ini balasan Allah bagi sebab mulut laser dia” Humaira meletakkan semula bayi itu di katilnya “Dahlah tu Tak payah cakap pasal dia lagi Anak kamu ni dah ada nama ke”Azhan dan Saffiya saling berpandanganSaffiya berjalan perlahan menghampiri katil itu Lelaki yang terlantar itu hamper-hampir tidak dikenalinya Sungguh berbeza “Fifi” panggil lelaki itu Saffiya agak gementar “You dah lain Cantik” tutur lelaki itu lagiSaffiya tersenyum sayu “Siapa budak ni” jari telunjuknya menuding ke arah kanak-kanak lelaki yang memaut kaki Saffiya “My sonAzfar 2 years old Mark macam mana boleh jadi macam ni” soal Saffiya yang masih lagi terkejut dengan keadaan Mark itu Mark tersenyum “After we??re break-up I be with Janet Semuanya berpunca dari Janet Dia pembawa HIV Like you knowkami amalkan seks bebas”Saffiya beristighfar “Janet ada kat mana sekarang” tanya Saffiya lagi Mark terdiam seketika “She??s dead Last month”Saffiya menekup wajahnya “Sebab tu I cari you I tahu yang I akan mati tak lama lagi I need your help I mahu mati sebagai seorang Islam”Air mata Mark mengalir basah ke bantal Saffiya memanjatkan kesyukurannya kepada Allah ” I will help you Don”t worry” janji Saffiya “Azfar balik dengan Mak Long dulu Ibu nak tunggu kat sini sekejap” Humaira segera mendukung anak kecil itu “Akak balik dulu tau”Saffiya mengangguk Satu persatu manusia meninggalkan tanah perkuburan itu “Saffi dah selesai ke” tanya Azhan Saffi menganggukDirenungnya batu nisan itu Malik Abdullah Sesungguhnya dia tidak pernah menyangka Mark akan memeluk Islam Alhamdulillahdengan bantuan Saffiya dan Azhan Mark dapat pergi dengan tenang “Abangabang menyesal tak kahwin dengan Saffi” duga Saffiya ketika berjalan ke kereta Azhan bingung Soalan apa pulak ni “Jawablah” rengek SaffiyaAzhan mengangguk Saffiya terbeliak “Gurau jelah Abang tak nak jawab Abang tak suka Saffi ungkit kisah lampau Just forget it”Saffiya mengangguk lalu tersenyum “Saffiabang ada satu permintaan Saffi boleh tunaikan”Saffiya mengangguk “Boleh jadi Fifi untuk abang Sehari je Tengok gambar yang Mark simpan tu.

Dia merenung wajah gadis yang tertunduk malu itu sambil jarinya menguis-nguis daun-daun kering yang gugur bersebelahan.?Ini bermakna kamu telah lama mengenali diriku Mungkin juga kamu punyai perasaan yang sama terhadap diriku” dia cuba memerangkap si gadis yang semakin bercelaru Pandangannya semakin tidak keruan“Tidak Sedikitpun saya tidak menyukai dirimu” bentak Balkis sambil melarikan wajahnya daripada terus dijamah oleh pandangan mata lelaki itu“Jangan kamu menipu perasaan kamu sendiri Kalau tidak masakan kamu sanggup mengikuti segala cerita tentang diriku” dia memerangkap kembali Hatinya kian dibungai oleh satu harapan yang pasti dapat disentuhnyaDia berdiri menghadap gadis itu Sekali lagi gadis itu cuba melarikan pandangannya daripada bertemu dengan mata lelaki itu Dia tetap berkeras dan tidak akan melepaskan gadis itu pergi kerana dia yakin ada sesuatu yang ingin disampaikan oleh gadis itu Kalau tidak mengapa gadis itu sendiri yang datang kepadanya“Balkis aku mencintaimu lebih daripada segala-galanya Kamulah wanita pertama yang telah menghadiahkan aku perasaan kasih sayang yang tidak pernah aku rasai sebelum ini seolah-olah kehadiran kamu adalah anugerah daripada Allah sebelum melihat aku terus tersesat di atas perut bumi yang melalaikan ini dan kamu adalah orang yang dikirim untuk membantu aku mendekatkan diri kepadaNya tuhan si pencipta yang telah menciptakan perasaan yang indah ini…”dia terus bersyarah Namun pada nada suaranya jelas kedengaran getar yang kian menyesakkan Terungkap bersama perasaan yang terlalu terdesak dan penuh pengharapan Dia merenung wajah Balkis yang tertunduk lesu Pandangan mata gadis itu merenung pasir-pasir halus yang dipijaknya Sesekali hujung kakinya menguis-nguis pepasir itu Gadis itu kian keliru untuk meluahkan apa yang terbuku di hati Rasa serba salah menghantui dirinya Dia berkira-kira terhadap apa yang telah difikirkan sebelum ini“Kenapa saudara memilih saya sebagai insan yang terpilih itu Bukankah saya hanya seorang gadis biasa yang tidak punya apa-apa” bicara si gadis dengan pandangan mata yang berkaca“Tapi kamu sangat istimewa dan sempurna pada pandangan mataku” tambahnya kembali dengan penuh yakin“Walaupun setelah mengetahui latar belakang saya Seorang anak yang lahir tanpa mengetahui asal-usulnya tanpa mengetahui daripada rahim siapa dia dilahirkan dan tanpa mengetahui keturunannya Sanggupkah awak…” balas suara itu LemahDia tersentak mendengar pengakuan daripada gadis manis itu Dia melihat ada air yang tumpah dari tubir matanya Sedaya upaya gadis itu cuba menahannya daripada terus dipertontonkan Melihatkan air mata yang terus tumpah satu persatu di ribaan gadis itu perasaan kasihnya kian mendalam Rasa ingin didakapnya tubuh gadis yang sedang duduk dihadapnnya itu Biar dia sahaja yang memujuk dan menenangkannya agar gadis itu tahu betapa ikhlas perasaannya“Mengapa perlu diungkit asal usul awak Saya mencintai awak seikhlas hati sepertimana awak mengajar saya untuk mencintai pencipta…walau siapa pun awak cinta saya tidak pernah pudar dan tidak akan mati walaupun maut menjadi perantaraannya Cinta kita akan terus bersemadi sehingga ke liang lahad sekalipun Cuma satu pintaku yakinlah bahawa aku benar-benar mencintaimu Izinkan aku membuka pintu hatimu agar dapat aku menumpang kasih dari seseorang yang sangat aku sayangi…” dia terus memujuk walaupun suaranya kian bergetar Memendam perasaan yang bercampur baur pada ketika ituDia melihat kepada Balkis Air matanya sudah disapu Gadis itu terus berteleku di atas bangku itu Tiada perkataan yang keluar daripada mulutnya Hanya esakan kecil yang kedengaran jelas pada pendengaran Pada saat itu rasa kasih dan cinta terhadap gadis itu kian menebal dan menjalar di setiap inci rung tubuhnya Walau siapapun Balkis ia tidak akan mengurangkan rasa sayangnya walaupun seinci cuma Hatinya tekad dan perasaannya tidak pernah salah pada kali ini untuk mncintai gadis yang bernama Balkis itu Dia merenung pada seraut wajah yang masih tertunduk dihadapannya itu menantikan jawapan daripadanya Dia berdebar dan amat berharap agar Balkis tidak menolak cintanya pada kali ini“Saya takut saudara malu dengan latar belakang saya…” bicara si gadisDia tersenyum mendengar suara yang sering dirinduinya saban hari Lama dia menunggu gadis itu untuk bersuara“Aku akan menerima segala kekurangan diri kamu dengan rasa hati yang terbuka kerana aku terlalu mencintaimu Tidak akan ada sebarang halangan yang akan menghalang hati kita daripada bersatu Cuma satu aku ingin dengar daripada kamu sudikah kamu menerima cintaku”Dia melutut di hadapan gadis itu mengharapkan diberi peluang untuk bertamu di hati gadis itu“Demi Tuhan saya juga mencintai saudara…” jawab si gadis malu-malu Wajahnya masih lagi tertunduk merenung tanah Barangkali tidak berani bertentang mata dengannyaDia tersenyum sambil meraup kedua-dua belah tapak tangannya ke muka Sinar kegembiraan jelas terpancar pada wajahnya yang cerah Tiada lagi redup dan kerut seperti sebelumnya Seolah-olah dialah manusia yang paling bahagia di dunia ini Dia cuba memegang bahu Balkis sedaya-upaya gadis itu cuba mengelak sambil menghadiahkan sekuntum senyum??

itulah yang dibelek-beleknya Abang Shaqir itulah tempat dia mengadu teman dia bergaduh teman dia bermain Abang Shaqir Odie rinduOdah mencemik dan tanpa rasa bersalah dia berkata “Odah dah buang”Terkebil-kebil mata Odie mendengar kata-kata Odah Hendak marah tapi suaranya bagai tersekat di kerongkong Akhirnya dia pejamkan mata sejenak cuba menghilangkan rasa sedih dan terkilan yang mula bersarang di hati Seketika kemudian dia berlalu pergi tanpa berkata apa-apaOdah pandang sahaja Odie yang berlalu Entah kenapa tiba-tiba dia rasa melampau sangatkah***Tiga tahun kemudian Odie berjaya melanjutkan pelajaran ke sebuah universiti tempatan Semenjak hari itu bilik Odie jarang-jarang ada penghuni Perabot dan pakaian serta buku-buku milik Odie masih tersimpan kemas di dalamnya Sesekali Odie pulang bermalam di situ bila tiba cuti semester Mereka dia dan Odah sudah jarang bertembung bila bertembung pun mereka jarang bersuaraSuatu hari Odah menyelongkar bilik Odie Lagi Hasrat hati hendak mencari nota-nota SPM milik Odie yang boleh dibuat rujukan Ketika sedang leka memunggah bahan-bahan bacaan yang ada tiba-tiba pintu bilik tersebut berkeriut Seseorang sedang membukanya dari luar“Odah”“Abang Odie” Odah menoleh terperanjat Tidak menyangka yang Odie akan pulang bercuti Bukankah hari itu mama kata Odie tak jadi balik“Odah buat apa kat bilik abang”Odah segera menyorokkan sebuah buku nota yang dijumpainya di belakang badan Namun mata Odie lebih pantas menangkap tindakan Odah“Curi buku abang lagi ek”“Huh Tak ingin pun” dengus Odah kasar sebelum menghempas buku nota yang disembunyikan itu ke atas meja“Odah”Odah bergegas keluar dan dengan sengaja melanggar bahu Odie Odie sekadar menggelengkan kepala Odah OdahKeesokkan paginya sebuah kotak memuatkan pelbagai nota dan buku-buku rujukan diletakkan di muka pintu bilik Odah***Mulut Odah terjuih bila dia melihat kelibat Odie dari jauh sedang menghampiri mereka ketika dia mendaftarkan diri sebagai pelajar baru untuk sebuah universiti tempatan“Mama apasal abang Odie ada kat sini”“Laa dia kan belajar kat sini” balas mamanya yang sedang melambai-lambai ke arah OdieOdah sudah mula buat muka “Kenapa Mama tak cakap abang Odie pun belajar kat sini”“Odah yang isi borang tu dulu kan Odah sendiri Odah yang letak universiti ni sebagai pilihan pertama” Ayah Odah yang sedang mengangkat keluar beg serta perkakas milik Odah dari dalam bonet kereta itu bersuaraOdah gigit bibir Kalau dia tahu Odie pun belajar kat sini sudah tentu dia tidak akan meletakkan universiti ini jadi pilihan yang paling atasHaish Odah memejamkan mata Tak lama pun Odie tu ada kat sini dua tahun jer Belajarlah bertahan Odah Fikir OdahPada ketika itu Odie sudah pun menjadi senior dan bakal menamatkan pengajiannya dalam masa dua tahun sedangkan Odah baru hendak memulakan pembelajarannya di universiti tersebut“Jangan cuba tegur-tegur Odah tau bila terserempak dengan Odah kat mana-mana kawasan universiti ni” pesan Odah yang lebih kepada amaran“Odah Kenapa cakap macam tu Bukankah elok abang Odie ada kat sini Bolehlah dia menjaga kamu” tegur ayahnyaOdah mencemik Jaga aku konon diri sendiri pun tak terjagaTapi Odie sekadar tersenyum tidak ambil hati pun dengan kata-kata Odah***Hari ini Odah bagai nak meraung jer bila dapat panggilan dari kampung Sungguh dia tak percaya Tak boleh jadi ni Aku mesti jumpa abang Odie Lantas dia mendail nombor telefon bimbit milik Odie yang berada dalam simpanannya Itupun dia menyimpan sebab dipaksa mama“Abang Odie kita kena jumpa”Terkejut Odie mendengar suara di seberang talian Tau pula

Rini balik yer? Dalam hanyut diterjah mimpi-mimpi semalam, Arisha dan Nuha berjalan keluar daripada Dewan Angkasa dan melangkah ke Scarlet Café yang menyediakan makanan untuk graduan-graduan hari ini. Air matanya mengalir keluar lagi.” Timah masih ingat, Sebab kau tu yang miang! Zafran terus membaringkan badannya.?? jawab Mak cik Limah. Mak jangan salahkan Mia, “Good night. Jojo” “Mak ni kan masih terlalu awal nak beli barang untuk baby” rungut Mia yang sudah kelelahan berwakaf di dalam The Mall Gadong “Kita kena sediakan awal kan ni untuk cucu mak yang pertama jadi mesti special” jawab Maimunah ibarat orang yang sihat walafiat “Mak Jeff tak lama lagi datang jemput kita ni nanti terpaksa pula dia tunggu lama-lama kan kesian dia mak dahlah dia banyak urusan” pujuk Mia “Ye tak ye juga okay then” Mia dan Maimunah berlalu keluar dari shopping complex membeli belah yang tampak agak lenggang pada hari itu maklumlah bulan tualah katakan Tanpa sedar mereka telah diperhatikan oleh tiga orang lelaki dari kejauhan Serta merta terasa beg tangan milik Mia dan Maimunah diragut oleh lelaki-lelaki yang tidak dikenali itu Mia masih sempat bergelut dengan seorang lelaki yang meregut begnya Lantas lelaki itu mengeluarkan sebilah pisau kecil yang disembunyikan di dalam jaket kulitnya Mata pisau itu sempat menghiris tangan Mia Maimunah yang melihat kejadian itu lantas berteriak Satu tumbukan hinggap ke wajah lelaki yang melukai Mia Jeff kelihatan segak sambil melawan lelaki-lelaki jahanam itu satu-persatu hinggalah datang beberapa orang security menangkap si pencuri Di dalam kerisauan dia bersyukur kerana tidak terluka dalam kejadian tadi bahkan Jeff juga beruntung kerana tidak menerima satupun pukulan percuma dari lelaki-lelaki tadi Hanya saja anak kesayangannya itu terluka hasil pergelutannya dengan pencuri tadi kerana enggan melepaskan beg tangannya Maimunah merenung wajah menantunya yang pucat kerisauan Andai Jeff tadi datang terlambat tak tahulah nasib mereka beranak Kebetulan pada hari-hari begitu shopping complex di situ sangat sunyi Dia menggenggam tangan menantunya itu agar menghilangkan serba sedikit kerisauan yang menggunung di hati Jeff Maimunah rasa bersalahBab 3 Sudah seminggu berlalu Mia sudah beransur pulih dan mulai bekerja semula Maimunah dan Jeff gembira sekali Mia masih ingat akan kata-kata Jeff yang membuatnya bingung dengan perasaannya sendiri “Lain kali kalau nak jalan-jalan tu bagitau I dulu buat risau macam nak rak aje” Suara kebimbangan Jeff itu melekat di kepalanya “Nanti balik office cepat-cepat pulang yerk” tiba-tiba kepala Jeff menjengul dari pintu kamar mereka Mia cepet-cepat menganggukkan kepalanya sambil menutup bahagian dadanya malu kerana dirinya masih berkemban Terdengar suara Jeff tertawa di luar Petang itu Mia menerima panggilan dari hospital Dikhabarkan bahawa ibunya pengsan setelah jatuh dari tangga Lantas Mia mempercepat langkahnya menuju ke kereta untuk pergi ke hospital Matanya memandang sayu ibunya yang terlantar lemah Doktor mengatakan bahawa ibunya tidak mengalami apa-apa kecederaan Namun hatinya tetap pilu teringat penyakit mematikan yang dihidap oleh ibunya dia menangis di sisi Maimunah hingga terlelap Sudah 2 jam dia menanti namun kelibat yang dinanti-nanti belum juga kunjung tiba Jeff menunggu dengan sabar Telefon bimbitnya berdering lalu diangkatnya tanpa memeriksa siapa gerangan yang membuat panggilan Setelah mematikan talian dia bergegas mendapatkan kunci kereta Setiap bait wajah Mia dan Maimunah bermain-main di kotak fikirannya yang masih terbelenggu Dia mengerti akan kelakuan Mia yang lupa memaklumkan dirinya tentang keadaan mertuanya itu Jeff memerhatikan wajah isterinya yang jelas kelihatan lepas menangis Mungkin bimbang sangat akan keadaan ibunya Kesal juga dia kerana Pak Karjo pemandu kereta mereka tidak memberitahunya awal-awal lagi Jeff memunajatkan rasa syukur kerana ibu mertuanya itu tidak apa-apa Cuma pengsan sahaja Jeff menuju ke almari kecil yang terletak berhadapan dengan katil pasien Dia mencapai sehelai selimut yang tersusun rapi lalu menyelimuti tubuh isterinya yang kurus itu Lalu dia mengambil tempat di sebelah Mia sambil menghayati setiap corak ukiran wajah insan yang semakin disayanginya itu kemudian mengalunkan ayat selamat hari jadi ke telinganya Tanpa disedari dia akhirnya turut terlelap sama Mia menguap sebangunnya dia dari tidur Sejurus terpandang wajah Jeff yang terlena dia teringat akan kata-kata Jeff pagi tadi Arghhh Menyedari adanya sehelai selimut yang menutupi tubuhnya dia semakin rasa bersalah Pasti Jeff Lantas dia berdiri lalu meyelimuti tubuh yang entah pernahkah dianggapnya sebagai seorang suami Setelah mencuci muka Mia menuju ke rumahnya untuk mengambil beberapa perkakas keperluan ibunya Dia ingin ibunya dirawat di rumah sakit agar penjagaan yang rapi akan diberikan kepada insan yang begitu disayanginya itu Takut kejadian yang sama akan terulang lagi apabila ibunya bebas untuk ke mana-mana Alangkah terkejutnya apabila dia mendapati pelbagai jenis makanan yang terhidang di atas meja Lilin yang mungkin sudah terpasang kini sudah padam Jeff kah yang sediakan semua ni Tapi untuk apa Sekali lagi dia teringan pesan suaminya itu “Nanti balik office cepat-cepat pulang yerk” Mia memerhati ruang makan dengan teliti Mia mendapati sebuah kotak kecil di atas kerusi makan yang biasanya diduduki oleh Jeff Lantas dia membukanya perlahan Seutas rantai yang berbuahkan bentuk hati Hati wanitanya tersentuh Matanya menangkap sebuah nota kecil??

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: September 14, 2006Running behind schedule because of software problems, flight controllers early today began a slow, careful process to unfurl a new set of solar arrays aboard the international space station. The plan called for first deploying the huge panels just a few feet to let them warm up and decompress after years in storage. Later today, the Atlantis astronauts will send commands to fully extend the new arrays. The first section of solar wing was unfurled this morning. Credit: NASA TV/Spaceflight NowThe initial deployment had been planned for Wednesday night, but software problems held up checkout of a large rotary drive mechanism designed to rotate the new arrays 360 degrees to stay face on to the sun as the station circles the globe.One of two drive lock assembly – DLA – motors in the solar alpha rotary joint worked properly in an initial test, rotating the still-stowed arrays 180 degrees. But the drive gear in a redundant DLA appeared to be misaligned and testing was put on hold. Late last night, engineers traced the problem to a software commanding issue and after implementing a workaround, DLA-2 eventually moved the arrays through a 360-degree rotation as planned.Finally, at 5 a.m., the first set of arrays – 4A – began slowly unfurling on ground command as its self-assembling mast pulled the top few feet of folded solar cell blankets from its box. The other array, 2A, followed suit at 5:46 a.m.The Atlantis astronauts hope to complete solar array deployment later today in stages, sending commands to unfurl the panels first to 49 percent and then to a full 100 percent in what promises to be the most visually dramatic moment of the ongoing space station assembly mission.Here is an updated timeline of today’s activities (NOTE: solar array deploy times are uncertain and not included; in EDT and mission elapsed time):12:15 AM041300STS/ISS crew wakeup03:35 AM041620EVA tool config05:40 AM041825ERCA troubleshooting06:10 AM041855Station robot arm reconfig06:45 AM041930Crew meals begin11:25 AM050010Canadian PAO event with Jett, MacLean11:45 AM050030Transfer tagup11:50 AM050035CNN, NPR interview Jett, Vinogradov, Williams11:50 AM050035Infrared camera setup12:10 PM050055EVA-3: Procedures review02:20 PM050305EVA-3: Campout mask pre-breathe (Tanner, Piper)03:05 PM050350EVA-3: Crew lock 10.2 depress03:45 PM050430ISS crew sleep begins04:15 PM050500STS crew sleep begins (Tanner, Piper in airlock)Each solar array wing is 15 feet wide and 115 feet long. Extending in opposite directions, the wings will stretch more than 240 feet from tip to tip when fully deployed. The so-called P4 array, or port 4 segment of the station’s main power truss, is bolted to the SARJ mechanism on the outboard side of the P3 truss segment that also serves to route power and data to and from the solar panels.When completed, the space station’s power truss will stretch more than a football field from end to end. Two huge solar arrays on each end of the truss will track the sun as the station circles the globe, rotating and changing pitch as required to maximize electrical generation.Finishing the main truss and wiring in the new arrays is a major element of near-term station assembly missions.One set of arrays, P6, is already attached to the station, providing power for the U.S. segment of the outpost. It is attached to the Z1 truss that extends upward from the Unity module at right angles to the main solar array truss. It will be moved next August to its final position next to the P4 arrays that were attached to the station Tuesday by Atlantis’ crew.Two other sets of identical arrays will be mounted on the right side of the truss during shuttle assembly flights in February 2007 and June 2008.Designed by Boeing, the newly attached P4 truss features two motor-driven self-assesmbling masts designed to pull out a pair of solar blankets. For launch, the arrays are folded like venetian blinds in blanket boxes measuring 15 feet long but just 20 inches thick.The P3 truss was delivered to the Kennedy Space Center in November 1999. P4 followed suit in July 2000. The solar array blankets have not been unfolded since they were originally stowed for launch.Prior to Columbia’s launch in January 2003, the arrays were certified to operate and deploy normally when stowed for up to 45 months. Because of the extended downtime after the Columbia accident, one of the blanket boxes on P4 was removed and shipped to California for deployment tests. A replacement blanket was installed aboard P4.As it turned out, the deployment tests went well and the blanket, which had been stowed 39 months at that point, worked normally. As a result, the certification age limit was boosted to 82 months. As of launch aboard Atlantis, the P4 blankets had been stowed for 67 and 73 months respectively.One other consequence of the Columbia recovery and subsequent launch delays was a decision to replace all 12 batteries in P4. The 372-pound batteries were swapped out in March and August of 2005.The solar array wings were designed by Lockheed Martin. They weigh more than 2,400 pounds and feature some 33,000 solar cells per blanket. They are designed to produce more power than the station actually needs to compensate for normal degradation as the outpost ages.The blankets must face the sun directly for maximum electrical generation and two mechanisms are in place to do just that. The wings can be rotated about their long axis by beta gimbal joints, much like the pitch of an airplane propeller can be adjusted. The SARJ, on the other hand, rotates the arrays through 360 degrees like a waterwheel around the axis of the main truss.The P4 integrated equipment assembly, or IEA, is a cube measuring 16 feet on a side and weighing nearly 17,000 pounds. It includes direct current converters, 12 batteries, battery chargers, control computers and an ammonia cooling system to keep the electronic gear at the proper temperature. A single set of folding radiator panels will extend 44 feet when fully deployed.Most of the work to ready the new P4 arrays for extension “is done by the flight control team,” Jett said. “The EVA crew does the physical work, in terms of, positioning the arrays and releasing all the bolts and the launch restraints. But then the preparation to actually make the deployment happen, all the activation sequence and the activation of the rotary joint, is all performed by the ground team.”The P4 arrays are identical to P6, which was attached to the space station during shuttle mission STS-97 in December 2000. When the first blanket was deployed, engineers were surprised to see several of the blanket panels had stuck together. When they jerked free, a tensioning cable jumped its guides and required repairs on a subsequent spacewalk. For the second array’s deployment, the crew let the sun warm up the array and deployed it in a so-called high-tension mode. That technique worked, and the array unfurled without incident.For the P4 deploy, the arrays will first be extended the length of a single bay of each mast – a few feet worth – to relieve compression and to begin warming up the panels.”The one-bay deploy is basically to start the relaxation of the blankets and to get ahead,” station flight director John McCullough said Wednesday. “The time we’re in an inertial attitude, the attitude where we continuously point the arrays at the sun, is limited because the rest of the space station doesn’t really like that atitude.”For this deploy, we want to have the sun in a certain cone to warm the back of the blankets and there’s a limit to that. We can only be there for three revs around the Earth.”Working in stages, the astronauts will extend the 4A mast to a distance of 49 percent early Thursday, wait a half hour or so for additional solar heating, and then the rest of the way to full extension. They will repeat that process for the 2A mast. It will take about 90 minutes for each panel to fully deploy.”We’re not too terribly concerned about stiction on the deploy,” said Tanner, a veteran of the STS-97 mission. “We know it might happen in certain panels. The team went hard to work after STS-97 to figure out the mechanism of stiction and what we can do to reduce it. They came up with a good operational plan to nominally deploy.”Now if for some reason one or two panels sticks after all that, then we can go out EVA, it would be on EVA 3, and actually manually peel the panels apart for the first 40 inches or so and doing a nominal deploy after that. All of our tests say they will peel open very easily. So we’re not too terribly concerned about that.”Space station Program Manager Mike Suffredini agreed that experience gained during the STS-97 mission in 2000 should result in a smooth deploy.”The good news is we’ve done it twice before,” Suffredini said. “The first time we deployed one of these arrays, we learned about a stiction issue that existed. After quite a bit of work during that mission, we deployed the second array in a little bit different technique, which allowed us to be successful. We learned a lot about techniques to get these arrays out without having the tension wire come loose, which is what happened when we tried to deploy the first one. It turns out after a lot of work … we figured out a fix to go back in there to put it back in its original condition. And of course, the arrays have been fine ever since.Using an engineering model, “we did quite a bit of testing on this stiction issue and how these arrays can stick together based on the silicon bead that’s on the arrays and then we compress them for long periods of time before they go fly. And that was basically the cause of the problem. Over a long period of time this silicon would tend to attach itself to the back part of the array. And so we’ve done a number of things, largely operational changes but also on how we dealt with the arrays.”While the arrays were compressed for shipment to Florida, that pressure was relaxed until shortly before final preparations.”Probably the largest changes were operational,” Suffredini said. “We will partially deploy the array about one bay’s worth and we’ll let it warm up and sort of expand a little bit. Then the actual deploy process a little bit later will have us deploy the array halfway and then you’ll see us sit for about 30 minutes as we warm it up and then we’ll go the rest of the way.”In addition to that, we’re using what we call a high-tension mode. Instead of leaving the lower part of the array free to move up and down as the array gets deployed, we learned we need to hold it down against the bottom of the blanket box. So the new technique holds it down and then this particular deploy lets the heat warm things up, to allow the silicon to free itself, is the process we’ll use to deploy. I have a lot of confidence in the deployment of the arrays.”The new solar arrays will not be rotated on the SARJ because of interference with the port wing of the P6 array and they will not provide any power to the space station until reconfigurations during the next shuttle mission in December.For readers interested in a bit more detail, here is an overview provided by Boeing, the prime contractor.Source: BoeingElectrical power is the most critical resource for the ISS because it allows astronauts to live comfortably, safely operate the station, and perform complex scientific experiments. Since the only readily available source of energy for spacecraft is sunlight, technologies were developed to efficiently convert solar energy to electrical power. One way to do this is by using large numbers of solar cells assembled into arrays to produce high power levels. The cells are made from purified crystal ingots of silicon that directly convert light to electricity through a process called photovoltaics. Solar cells do the job, but a spacecraft orbiting the Earth is not always in direct sunlight so energy has to be stored. Storing power in rechargeable batteries provides a continuous source of electricity while the spacecraft is in the Earth’s shadow.NASA and Lockheed Martin developed a method of mounting the solar arrays on a “blanket” that can be folded like an accordion for delivery to space. Once in orbit, astronauts deploy the blankets to their full size. Gimbals are used to rotate the arrays so that they face the Sun to provide maximum power to the Space Station. The solar arrays track the sun in two axes: beta and alpha.P4 is the second of four PVMs that will eventually be brought up to the International Space Station, converting sunlight to electricity. The first one, named P6, was brought on orbit by the STS-97 crew in November 2000. The primary functions of the P4 photovoltaic module are to collect, store, convert and distribute electrical power to loads within the segment and to other ISS segments. The P4 PVM consists of two beta gimbal/PV array assemblies, two beta gimbal transition structures, one integrated equipment assembly and associated cabling and tubing. The P4 PVM components were assembled by Boeing in Tulsa, Okla. and Lockheed Martin in Sunnyvale, Calif. prior to final assembly and testing by Boeing at Kennedy Space Center, Fla.There are two solar array wings (SAW) designed, built and tested by Lockheed Martin in Sunnyvale, Calif. on the P4 module, each deployed in the opposite direction from each other. Each SAW is made up of two solar blankets mounted to a common mast. Prior to deployment, each panel is folded accordion style into a solar array blanket box (SABB) measuring 20 inches high and 15 feet in length. Each blanket is only about two inches thick while in this stored position. The mast consists of interlocking battens which are stowed for launch inside a mast canister assembly (MCA) designed, built and tested by ATK-Able. When deployed by the astronauts, the SAW deploys like an erector set as it unfolds. It has two arms like a human torso when mounted on P4 which are rotated outwards by astronauts during a spacewalk so they can be fully deployed. Because these blankets were stored for such a long time, NASA, Boeing and Lockheed Martin conducted extensive testing to ensure they would unfold properly once on orbit to ensure there would be no problems with the blankets sticking together. This testing was completed in July 2003.When fully deployed, the SAW extends 115 feet and spans 38 feet across and extends out to each side of the integrated equipment assembly. Since the second SAW is deployed in the opposite direction, the total wing span is over 240 feet.Each solar array wing weighs over 2,400 pounds and use nearly 33,000 (32,800 per wing) solar array cells, each measuring 8-cm square with 4,100 diodes. The individual cells were made by Spectrolab and ASEC. There are 400 solar array cells to a string and there are 82 strings per wing. Each SAW is capable of generating nearly 32.8 kilowatts (kW) of direct current power. There are two SAWs on the P4 module yielding a total power generation capability approaching 66 kW, enough power to meet the needs of 30 average homes without air conditioning (based on an average 2kW of power).Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:PORT 3/PORT 4 TRUSS KEEL PIN REMOVED AND STOWED VIDEO:HELMETCAM OF BURBANK REMOVING SARJ RESTRAINT VIDEO:SPACEWALKERS PAUSE FOR PICTURE TIME VIDEO:STEVE MACLEAN REPORTS LOST BOLT VIDEO:ROTARY JOINT LOCK REMOVED BY SPACEWALKER VIDEO:STEP-BY-STEP PREVIEW OF SPACEWALK NO. 2 VIDEO:POST-EVA 1 STATUS BRIEFING VIDEO:TANNER LOSES BOLT DURING ROTARY JOINT WORK VIDEO:PIPER UNFOLDS SOLAR BLANKET BOXES VIDEO:SECOND WING’S STRUCTURE DEPLOYED BY PIPER VIDEO:FIRST SOLAR WING’S STRUCTURE DEPLOYED BY TANNER VIDEO:STEP-BY-STEP PREVIEW OF SPACEWALK NO. 1 VIDEO:TRUSS HANDED FROM SHUTTLE ARM TO STATION ARM VIDEO:ARM MANEUVERS TRUSS OVER SHUTTLE WING VIDEO:TRUSS SLOWLY LIFTED OUT OF PAYLOAD BAY VIDEO:ATLANTIS’ ARM GRAPPLES THE TRUSS VIDEO:MONDAY’S MISSION STATUS BRIEFING VIDEO:ATLANTIS WELCOMED ABOARD THE STATION VIDEO:DOCKING REPLAY FROM CAMERA ON SHUTTLE ARM VIDEO:SHUTTLE ATLANTIS DOCKS TO THE STATION VIDEO:ATLANTIS’ BREATH-TAKING FLIP MANEUVER VIDEO:CREW’S CAMCORDER FOOTAGE OF EXTERNAL TANK VIDEO:NARRATED ANIMATION PREVIEWING TRUSS UNBERTHING VIDEO:NARRATED ANIMATION PREVIEWING THE DOCKING VIDEO:NARRATED ANIMATION OF PAYLOAD BAY CONFIGURATION MORE: VIDEO:BRIEFING ON TANK’S PERFORMANCE VIDEO:TANK’S ONBOARD CAMERA LIFTOFF TO SEPARATION VIDEO:FLIGHT DIRECTOR EXPLAINS INSPECTIONS VIDEO:SUNDAY’S MISSION STATUS BRIEFING VIDEO:LAUNCH OF ATLANTIS!

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: August 3, 2006 Credit: NASA-KSCNASA managers today decided to stick with an Aug. 27 launch target for shuttle Atlantis based on an analysis that indicates orbital lighting would not be sufficient for a launch on Aug. 26.As part of NASA’s recovery from the Columbia disaster, the agency wants to launch Atlantis in daylight and still have enough light in orbit after the climb to space to permit photo documentation of the foam insulation on the shuttle’s external fuel tank.Because of a potential conflict with launch of a Russian Soyuz spacecraft carrying the station’s next full-time crew, Atlantis’ launch window currently extends through Sept. 7. NASA managers asked engineers to assess the possibility of launching Atlantis as early as Aug. 26 to maximize their chances of getting the shuttle off before the window closes.That’s important because once the August/September window expires, NASA will only have three useable lighted launch days between then and the end of the year – two in late October and one in December.But as it turns out, critical areas of the tank’s insulation – so-called ice-frost ramps and the nearby area where longer protuberance air-load, or PAL, ramps were once in place, will not be sufficiently illuminated on Aug. 26 to permit the sort of photo documentation engineers want.As a result, NASA is sticking with the Aug. 27 launch target. Barring major problems, that date is expected to become official at the conclusion of a two-day flight readiness review Aug. 16.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:ATLANTIS ARRIVES AT LAUNCH PAD 39B VIDEO:ROLLOUT FROM VEHICLE ASSEMBLY BUILDING BEGINS VIDEO:TRUSS IN PAD’S PAYLOAD ROOM VIDEO:PAYLOAD HOISTED INTO THE PAD VIDEO:STATION TRUSS PAYLOAD DELIVERED TO PAD MORE: Telescopes.comLargest selection and the best prices anywhere in the world.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: September 7, 2006NASA managers today cleared the shuttle Atlantis for launch Friday despite a suspect electrical generator, deciding the risk of an in-flight fuel cell shutdown that could prompt a shortened mission was not a credible threat to the thrice-delayed space station assembly flight.If all goes well, engineers will begin loading a half-million gallons of rocket fuel into the shuttle’s external tank around 1:45 a.m. Friday for a launch attempt at 11:40:37 a.m. The forecast calls for a 70 percent chance of good weather, but if problems prevent liftoff, NASA can make a final try Saturday at 11:14:55 a.m., the newly declared end of the window.”After a very extensive review of the last almost 48 hours now, the team came to the conclusion today that the cloud that we saw over fuel cell No. 1 is probably acceptable to fly with,” said shuttle Program Manager Wayne Hale. “We had another very fun and interesting Mission Management Team meeting.”I’ve got to tell you that if you ever wanted to see the difference between the old NASA and the new NASA, you should have been over there today. There was a chance for everyone to participate, all the data was laid out on the table for everyone to examine, from the top of the agency down to the most junior engineer.”We had a vigorous debate and we had many people give their opinions and arguments,” Hale said. “And at the end of the day, when the Mission Management Team was polled by (Chairman) LeRoy Cain, it was not quite unanimous but very nearly unanimous with just a few folks voicing concerns that we go ahead and attempt to fly.”Some engineers, including representatives of UTC Power, the builder of the fuel pumps, believed it made more sense to replace the suspect fuel cell, which would have delayed the flight until after an upcoming Russian Soyuz flight to the space station.But Hale ultimately sided with LeRoy Cain, who argued in favor of launching during Wednesday’s MMT meeting, and ordered engineers to press ahead for a Friday launch.Facing the Bush administration’s 2010 deadline to complete the space station and retire the shuttle, and with multiple delays and just two flights under its belt since the 2003 Columbia disaster, some outside observers believe NASA managers are under pressure to resume station construction as soon as possible.NASA Administrator Mike Griffin approved a shuttle launch in July over the objections of NASA’s chief engineer and safety officer about external tank foam insulation that was officially classified as “probable/catastrophic” in NASA’s risk matrix. At the time, Griffin said he disagreed with that assessment and said he decided to proceed because of the potential impact of a lengthy delay on the downstream station assembly schedule.In the wake of the Columbia accident, NASA was criticized for putting the launch schedule ahead of flight safety and succumbing to “go fever.” But Hale today dismissed concern that schedule pressure played into today’s decision, saying “I think that’s a cockeyed way to look at it.”Hale said the fuel cell problem never violated NASA’s safety guidelines and that Atlantis could have been launched, by the book, without any additional debate.”What I would tell you – no offense – what I would tell you is without having a requirement, without having what in the old days would have been considered any credible reason at all, we have stood down two days to make sure that we are safe to fly. OK?” Hale told CBS News. “So we have gone the extra mile. And I’ve gotta tell you, from where I sit, I don’t feel like we’re racing to the end of the window. OK?”We have a couple of days available for launch and if we get the opportunity to go fly, I would like to take advantage of those couple of days. … I feel very confident we’re not racing, that we have, in fact, taken a very slow, methodical, thorough and safety-oriented approach in this whole matter, far and above what would have been done by folks in the old days.”The goal of the 116th shuttle mission is to install a 35,000-pound $372 million solar array on the end of a massive truss stretching across the U.S. Destiny laboratory module. It is the first of a half-dozen extremely complex flights to build out the solar arrays and prepare the station for arrival of European and Japanese research modules.Engineers initially hoped to launch Atlantis Aug. 27, but the flight was grounded by a launch pad lightning strike and then by tropical storm Ernesto. A launch try Wednesday was called off after an apparent short circuit showed up in fuel cell No. 1.Atlantis is equipped with three fuel cells that generate direct current electricity by combining oxygen and hydrogen in a sort of reverse electrolysis. That direct current is then converted into three-phase alternating current and distributed throughout the spacecraft across three electrical buses.The short in question occurred in fuel cell No. 1’s Freon coolant pump motor. While the motor runs fine on two-phase power, a subsequent short would knock it out of action and, without cooling, force the crew to shut down fuel cell 1. A fuel cell shutdown, in turn, would trigger a flight rule requiring the crew to shorten its mission and to land early.If a minimum-duration flight was declared early, the astronauts would still be able to dock with the station, attach the new solar array and stage at least one spacewalk to plug it into the station’s power and cooling systems. After that, the crew would be ordered home early. But Hale said he believed the odds of that, while not zero, were acceptably low.Extensive testing over the past two days convinced most engineers the short is in the motor itself and poses little risk of additional trouble. Playing it safe, a circuit breaker will be pulled for the duration of the mission that will cut phase A power to the Freon pump motor, a hydrogen pump in fuel cell No. 1 and a temperature sensor.Fuel cells do not lend themselves to repairs at the launch pad and in any case, NASA could not access the powerplants before the end of the launch window. The only realistic options were to fly as is or to order a swap out, a procedure that would take at least 11 days to complete at the launch pad.Hale said the complexity of the repair job raised the threat of collateral damage and added that even if Atlantis was delayed past Saturday, he would not order a swap out.In any case, the Russian space agency plans to launch a Soyuz rocket carrying the space station’s next full-time crew on Sept. 18. Any launch past the 18th would result in a pre-dawn landing for the outgoing station crew Sept. 28, a scenario the Russians are adamant about avoiding.In earlier discussions, NASA promised the Russians Atlantis would leave the station by Sept. 17 at the latest. NASA managers and their Russian counterparts have now agreed that Atlantis can remain docked to the station through Sept. 18 if necessary. That would permit the Atlantis astronauts to launch on Saturday, if required, and still extend the flight one day for additional heat shield inspections if required.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:BRIEFING ON FUEL CELL DELAY VIDEO:TUESDAY’S STATUS UPDATE BRIEFING VIDEO:PRE-LAUNCH NEWS BRIEFING VIDEO:MONDAY’S COUNTDOWN STATUS VIDEO:BIOGRAPHY MOVIE ON THE SIX ASTRONAUTS VIDEO:SHORT MOVIE PREVIEW OF ATLANTIS’ MISSION VIDEO:OUTLOOK ON UPCOMING STATION ASSEMBLY FLIGHTS VIDEO:CREW ARRIVES IN T-38 TRAINING JETS VIDEO:COMMENTS FROM CREW AFTER ARRIVAL VIDEO:NEWS BRIEFING ON RETURN TO PAD VIDEO:ATLANTIS ROLLBACK BEGINS VIDEO:OFFICIALS EXPLAIN LIGHTNING SCRUB VIDEO:SEE THE LIGHTNING STRIKE AT PAD B VIDEO:ANOTHER VIEW OF LIGHTNING STRIKE VIDEO:COMPLETE PREVIEW OF ATLANTIS MISSION VIDEO:DETAILS OF THE THREE SPACEWALKS VIDEO:MEET THE SIX ASTRONAUTS MORE: STS-115 patchThe official crew patch for the STS-115 mission of space shuttle Atlantis to resume orbital construction of the International Space Station.Choose your store: – – – Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is now available in our store.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: December 16, 2006NASA’s Mission Management Team today decided to add a fourth spacewalk to Discovery’s mission in a bid to fully retract an unruly solar array on the international space station. The decision was announced during a spacewalk by Robert Curbeam and Sunita Williams to finish re-wiring the orbital outpost.”We are go for EVA-4 on flight day 10,” astronaut Stephen Robinson radioed from Houston.Curbeam and Williams plan to inspect the partially retracted P6-4B array later today and to possibly shake its storage box in a bid to free a presumably hung up guide wire preventing the blankets from folding smoothly.Assuming that doesn’t resolve the issue, Curbeam and Swedish astronaut Christer Fuglesang will carry out a fourth spacewalk Monday to attempt some sort of repair.Under that scenario, Discovery would undock from the station Tuesday and the astronauts would carry out a final heat shield inspection Wednesday. After packing up Thursday, landing at the Kennedy Space Center would be expected around 3:56 p.m. Friday.Curbeam and Williams successfully wrapped up a complex re-wiring job today, routing solar array electricity through two main bus switching units, transformers and other equipment making up channels 1 and 4 of the space station’s electrical power system. Flight controllers then successfully activated a critical pump to circulate ammonia coolant through cold plates and radiators to keep the electrical components from overheating.Curbeam and Fuglesang wired in electrical power system channels 2 and 3 during a spacewalk Thursday. Today’s work completed the station’s switch over from interim to permanent power, a major milestone that clears the way for future crews to build out the station’s main solar array truss and, eventually, to add new modules.Building out the main power truss requires astronauts to fold up and move the P6 solar arrays, which provided interim power to the station. P6 eventually will be moved to the far left side of the power truss where it will joint a set of arrays known as P4 that were attached in September.The Discovery astronauts attempted to retract the left wing of the P6 array, known as P6-4B, on Wednesday but they were only able to pull it in about half way. Several of the slats in the folding blankets failed to fold evenly, stopping the process in its tracks. Repeated attempts to free a presumably jammed guide wire were unsuccessful.Engineers initially said the array could be safely left as is, that it had enough structural rigidity in its partially retracted state to withstand shuttle and Russian Progress supply ship dockings and undockings. But there were questions about whether it was up to the jarring from Soyuz crew capsule dockings at a port closest to the array.NASA managers said earlier an additional spacewalk to deal with the array would force the astronauts to forego a planned final heat shield inspection after undocking because the shuttle only has enough hydrogen and oxygen for its electricity producing fuel cells to stay in orbit until Saturday at the latest.The original flight plan called for a landing Thursday at the Kennedy Space Center, preserving two weather contingency days. NASA seldom cuts into the weather reserve, prompting speculation that an additional spacewalk would rule out the late heat shield inspection.NASA went into Discovery’s flight with an understanding that a post-undocking heat shield checkout could be taken off the table if the astronauts had problems with the space station electrical work that might require an additional spacewalk.But during today’s Mission Management Team meeting, senior agency managers concluded an additional spacewalk would, in fact, be required to deal with the recalcitrant solar array.The repair work could have been deferred to the station’s three-person crew, but spacewalks use the buddy system and a single astronaut would be required to stay inside and operate the retraction system as well as the space station’s big robot arm.In the end, the MMT, chaired by John Shannon, decided to add a spacewalk to Discovery’s mission to resolve the matter sooner rather than later. The P6-2A wing, currently fully extended to the right side of the station, is scheduled to be retracted in March and engineers would like to have experience with P6-4B before attempting a second retraction that might result in the same problem.The P6 array, with both wings fully retracted, is scheduled to be unbolted and moved to the far left end of the station’s solar array truss in September.Along with adding another spacewalk to Discovery’s mission, the MMT also decided to preserve the final heat shield inspection, giving up one of the shuttle’s two weather contingency days.With only one weather contingency day beyond that, NASA likely will activate both of its backup landing sites at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., and White Sands, N.M., on Friday. Touchdown at the Kennedy Space Center, weather permitting, is scheduled for 3:56 p.m.Video coverage for subscribers only:VIDEO:WIDESCREEN VIEW FROM PLAYALINDA BEACH TRACKER VIDEO:DISCOVERY’S LAUNCH THROUGH FUEL TANK SEPARATION VIDEO:SHORT CLIP OF DISCOVERY BLASTING OFF VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS DEPART QUARTERS FOR PAD VIDEO:CREW FINISHES DONNING SPACESUITS VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS IN DINING ROOM VIDEO:TIME-LAPSE MOVIE OF PAD GANTRY ROLLBACK VIDEO:LONGER LENGTH MOVIE OF THE SCRUB VIDEO:SCRUB CALLED DUE TO LOW CLOUDS VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS DEPART QUARTERS FOR PAD VIDEO:CREW FINISHES DONNING SPACESUITS VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS IN DINING ROOM THURSDAY VIDEO:PAD’S ROTATING SERVICE STRUCTURE ROLLED BACK VIDEO:POST-ARRIVAL COMMENTS FROM THE CREW VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS ARRIVE IN WAVE OF T-38 JETS VIDEO:BIOGRAPHIES OF THE DISCOVERY ASTRONAUTS VIDEO:NARRATED STS-116 MISSION PREVIEW MOVIE VIDEO:WEDNESDAY’S SHUTTLE BRIEFING IN ITS ENTIRETY BRIEFING SOUNDBITES:VIDEO:THE ISSUES DISCUSSED AT FRR VIDEO:NOT YOUR FATHER’S FRR VIDEO:READY TO RESUME NIGHT LAUNCHES VIDEO:LAUNCH PREPS PROCEEDING WELL VIDEO:YEAR-END ROLLOVER CONCERNS VIDEO:REASSESSING TANK FOAM RISK VIDEO:STATION SOLAR ARRAY DRIVE SYSTEM PROBLEM VIDEO:PRESSURIZATION PRECAUTIONS AT THE PAD VIDEO:OVERVIEW OF STS-116 MISSION VIDEO:SHUTTLE/ISS PROGRAM PERSPECTIVE VIDEO:PREVIEW OF MISSION’S SPACEWALKS VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS’ PRE-FLIGHT NEWS BRIEFING VIDEO:COVERAGE OF PRACTICE COUNTDOWN ACTIVITIES VIDEO:DISCOVERY ROLLS TO THE PAD VIDEO:DISCOVERY MATED TO TANK AND BOOSTERS VIDEO:SHUTTLE HOISTED VERTICALLY INSIDE VAB VIDEO:DISCOVERY HAULED FROM HANGAR TO VAB VIDEO:PORT 5 TRUSS PAYLOAD PACKED UP VIDEO:CREW VISITS KENNEDY SPACE CENTER VIDEO:EXTERNAL FUEL TANK MATED TO BOOSTERS MORE: Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is now available in our store.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: September 19, 2006The Atlantis astronauts will spend their early morning hours Wednesday using the shuttle’s robot arm to examine the ship from top to bottom and stem to stern for any signs of damage or missing hardware that might explain the source of a mysterious object that apparently floated away from the orbiter earlier today.Concern about that object prompted NASA to delay Atlantis’ return to Earth by 24 hours, from Wednesday to Thursday, to give the astronauts and engineers time to make sure the ship’s heat shield and other critical systems are healthy before committing the ship to a fiery re-entry.Shuttle Program Manager Wayne Hale said late today he’s hopeful whatever the object might be it’s not something that poses a threat to the shuttle or its crew. He said it may be something as simple as a plastic shim that shook out from between two tiles during pre-landing tests earlier today. This series of images from the flight day 3 inspections shows the shim seen on belly of Atlantis. Credit: NASASuch shims are used to make sure adjacent tiles are properly spaced during installation to account for expansion and contraction of the shuttle’s aluminum skin during broad temperature swings in space. A piece of shim stock was spotted during a heat shield inspection two days after launch sticking up from between tiles on one of Atlantis’ propellant feedline doors.Whether activation of the shuttle’s hydraulic system or jarring test firings of the shuttle maneuvering jets today could have shaken the shim free is not yet known. The shim does not pose any threat to the shuttle, but engineers don’t yet know if it is, in fact, what showed up in the downlinked television views. Likewise, it’s not yet known whether a second object spotted by commander Brent Jett that was seen floating away from the shuttle shortly after noon is a problem or not.But Hale said engineers have dismissed earlier concern about eight potential impact “events” detected by wing leading edge sensors. Analysis of timing data shows the sensors were simply responding to vibrations induced by the shuttle’s hydraulic system during a routine pre-landing flight control system checkout.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:MID-DAY BRIEFING BY SHUTTLE CHIEF VIDEO:SHUTTLE CAMERA SPOTS MYSTERY OBJECT VIDEO:HOUSTON TELLS CREW ABOUT THE OBJECT MORE: To make sure Atlantis’ heat shield is, in fact, intact, the astronauts will unlimber the shuttle’s robot arm for a five-hour overnight inspection. Cameras on the 50-foot-long robot arm should be able to spot any critical damage to the shuttle’s wing leading edge panels or heat-shield tiles that’s above the threshold need to cause problems.”This data is not like the very fine, almost microscopic inspections we’ve done of the (wing leading edge panels) before,” Hale said. “We think if this piece came off (the heat shield), this is going to be easy to see. So we can look further back, we can scan faster, we can do it with less delicate sensors. This is a standard television camera and by going down the line at a relatively slow pace you can see right away is there something big missing or is it generally in good shape? This inspection is appropriate for the concern that we might have something like that.”If poor lighting or other problems associated with oblique viewing angles develops, the astronauts will use the arm to pick up a 50-foot-long heat-shield inspection boom for a more thorough inspection or a focused look at a particular area of interest.If the boom has to be used, the long crew day could prompt NASA to delay re-entry until Friday to make sure the crew has time to rest up after a busy day in space. If no problems are seen during the robot arm survey, Atlantis likely will be cleared for landing Thursday at the Kennedy Space Center.The shuttle has enough on-board supplies to remain in orbit until Saturday. The weather forecast for Thursday and Friday calls for good conditions at the Kennedy Space Center.Here is an updated timeline of overnight activity (in EDT and mission elapsed time):09/19/06Tue 09:45 PM 10 10 30 Crew wakeupTue 11:45 PM 10 12 30 Robot arm survey09/20/06Wed 04:45 AM 10 17 30 Crew lunchWed 05:45 AM 10 18 30 Orbiter boom sensor system unberth (if needed)Wed 06:40 AM 10 19 25 OBSS survey (if needed)Wed 09:55 AM 10 22 40 OBSS berthing (if needed)Wed 10:30 AM 10 23 15 Robot arm powerdown (if needed)Wed 01:45 PM 11 02 30 Crew sleep beginsWed 09:45 PM 11 10 30 Crew wakeup09/21/06Thu 05:19 AM 11 18 04 Deorbit burn (orbit 186; if no problems seen)Thu 06:21 AM 11 19 06 Landing at the Kennedy Space CenterThu 06:55 AM 11 19 40 Backup deorbit ignition (orbit 187)Thu 07:57 AM 11 20 42 Backup landing opportunity”The crew’s going to wake up about (9:45 p.m.), we will let them get up and do the normal things they do in post sleep for about two hours, get breakfast, start their day, then we will start a survey of the vehicle with the remote manipulator system cameras that we think will take about five hours.”The goal of that survey is to get the general sense to make sure we’re not missing any large pieces of the thermal protection system. We don’t think we are, but this is to make sure. We think at the end of that survey we will be in a very good posture to believe we are good to come home.”However, we have built an option into the plan that after the crew’s lunch period they can get the orbiter boom sensor system out and spend another three hours with that additional boom looking at some hard-to-see areas.”With the OBSS attached to the robot arm, the astronauts have the ability to inspect virtually the entire shuttle, including all areas of the belly that would be of critical concern for re-entry. But the robot arm alone should be able to do the trick, Hale said. Anything large enough to cause problems is well within the detection of the arm’s cameras.The shim stock, for example, was easily visible during Atlantis’ final approach to the international space station Sept. 11. Camera views showed the reddish, rectangular piece of plastic sticking up at an angle between tiles on a door used to cover one of two external tank propellant feedline entrances in the belly of the shuttle.Engineers determined the shim posed no threat to the shuttle and would harmlessly melt or blow off during re-entry. As a result, NASA managers decided to simply leave it in place.”If we are satisfied at the crew’s lunch hour that we have a good inspection and we believe there’s nothing untoward, then we won’t get the OBSS out and we’ll come home normally (Thursday).”One of the things I think a lot of folks have talked about quite a bit as the most likely candidate is that piece of shim stock that we saw sticking out from the underside of the orbiter … on flight day three as we approached the international space station. It’s very likely the flight control system checkout provided the impetus, the shock, the vibration … that shook that loose and it floated out. We don’t know for sure, but it’s a highly likely candidate.”If, in fact, we go look and that piece of shim stock is missing, we had quite the interesting debate in the Mission Management Team about whether that in itself was sufficient and we could just quit there. The discussion came to the conclusion that no, since we’ve got the arm out and we can’t conclusively prove one way or the other that it was the shim stock, we ought to go complete the survey and make sure we don’t see anything else that would cause us any concern.”Engineers do not believe the mystery object was the result of an impact with orbital debris or a micrometeoroid. A high-energy impact would have imparted a higher departure velocity to any debris and other sensors likely would have detected the disturbance.Engineers also haven’t found any signs of unusual temperatures on the shuttle that might otherwise be expected if a thermal blanket or heat-shield tiles were missing.”We’re just doing what I would call due diligence here,” Hale said. “We have the capability to remain in orbit until Saturday, we have the tools to go off and make sure we are safe for re-entry so we have no reason, in fact, not to go take a look and put every concern to rest. And that’s what the plan is built to do and executing this plan we think we’ll have a good feeling about coming home on Thursday.”But if the inspections keep the crew up late, NASA managers may opt to “give them another day on orbit to rest up before the critical entry phase” to make sure “we have a well rested and prepare crew to fly the critical phases of entry and we don’t want to do that with folks who are tired or overly concerned about anything. So we’re going to put all that to rest.”Here is a list of all the available landing opportunities through Saturday at the Kennedy Space Center, Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., and Northtrup Strip at White Sands, N.M.

Synoptic Discussion: “Currently, the Bermuda high pressure ridge is located over the Florida Straits resulting in southwesterly flow over Central Florida. This pattern causes afternoon thunderstorms to migrate toward the east coast of Florida; therefore, Kennedy Space Center (KSC) will continue to have afternoon thunderstorms for the next two days. By launch day, the ridge will migrate to the north, causing easterly flow to set in over Central Florida. Morning coastal showers will affect KSC, and afternoon thunderstorms will migrate inland. Still, trough of low pressure over Central Florida could enhance offshore showers and thunderstorms, and upper-level winds from the east may cause anvils from thunderstorms offshore over the Gulf Stream to advect west toward the coast.”Our primary concerns for launch are anvil clouds from thunderstorms offshore and showers and thunderstorms within 20NM of the Shuttle Landing Facility (SLF).”
STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: September 5, 2006NASA managers are holding open the possibility of extending the shuttle Atlantis’ mission by at least one and possibly two days to give the crew time to carry out additional heat shield inspections and to handle any unexpected problems that might crop up, officials said today.Atlantis is scheduled for blastoff Wednesday at 12:29 p.m. on a space station assembly mission considered one of the most complex shuttle flights in recent memory. There are no technical problems of any significance at pad 39B and forecasters are predicting a 70 percent chance of good weather Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.”We really are working no issues, the vehicle’s in very good shape,” said LeRoy Cain, launch site chairman of NASA’s Mission Management Team. “I conducted the go/no-go poll to continue and everybody on the team is go and in good spirits. We’re ready to press forward from here.”Launch Director Mike Leinbach said engineers may move the launch pad service gantry away from Atlantis an hour or so early today to beat the onset of expected afternoon thunderstorms.”If we get it back before the weather sets in, that’s great,” he said. “If not, we’ll recover that time after the weather passes. Typically, we hold four or five hours in abeyance for RSS (rotating service structure) retract. So if we do get hit by the afternoon weather, that really shouldn’t pose a problem for us.”The Mission Management Team plans to meet at 1:45 a.m. Wednesday to assess the weather and give engineers clearance to proceed with loading Atlantis’ external tank with liquid oxygen and hydrogen rocket fuel.Fueling is scheduled to begin at 2:33 a.m. and if all goes well, commander Brent Jett, pilot Chris Ferguson, flight engineer Dan Burbank, Joe Tanner, Canadian astronaut Steve MacLean and Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper will begin strapping in around 9:09 a.m.Liftoff is targeted for 12:28:49 p.m. If Atlantis fails to get off the ground Wednesday, NASA can try again Thursday and Friday. After that, the flight will be delayed until after the Russians launch a fresh crew to the international space station Sept. 18 and bring the lab’s outgoing crew back to Earth Sept. 29. The next daylight launch opportunity or the shuttle after Friday is Oct. 26.With an on-time launching, Atlantis will dock with the space station Friday at 8:40 a.m. The next day, a new solar array truss will be attached to the outpost and the crew will stage the first of three spacewalks to make critical electrical connections, remove launch restraints and perform other activation tasks.As it now stands, a second spacewalk would be carried out the next day, followed by solar array extension the day after that and then a third spacewalk. But managers may insert an extra day between the first two spacewalks to let the crew carry out “focused inspections” of the shuttle’s heat shield based on whatever they see during an initial inspection the day after launch.”We don’t (currently) have that scheduled in the STS-115 timeline, but we know that is a likely possibility based on the flight day two or three inspections, that we’ll need to go back and look at some areas in more focused detail,” said shuttle Program Manager Wayne Hale. “There’s a hope that perhaps we won’t need to do that.”The more difficult case for the team to execute, both the astronauts in orbit and mission control, is two back-to-back EVAs. If we need to do a focused inspection, the thinking is … we would insert a day between the first and second EVAs. That becomes a somewhat lighter day for the crew and mission control, so it’s an easier day to stand by for.”What we’d really like to do is not have to do focused inspection, in other words, have such a clean vehicle that no inspections are required. Then we can save that day, bank it, and keep it (for) the end of the mission in case we run into any difficulties in the assembly process. Lifting off tomorrow or even the day after tomorrow, we really will have the capability to extend not one, but two days to the docked period so we would have the capability to handle both contingencies.”If an extension day is, in fact, inserted after the first spacewalk, the second spacewalk would occur on Sept. 11, the fifth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington.In other developments, Hale gave reporters an update on NASA’s work to develop safer ice-frost ramps on the shuttle’s external tank. The ice-frost ramps are buildups of foam insulation around brackets that support two pressurization lines and a cable tray. The insulation prevents ice from forming that could break off during launch and strike the shuttle.The IFRs are manually sprayed on and then sculpted on top of so-called acreage foam. Post-Columbia testing shows areas where foam is applied on top of other foam are susceptible to cracking due to differential thermal effects. Cracks, in turn, can lead to foam shedding during launch.The IFRs are officially classified as “probable/catastrophic,” meaning there is a 50-50 chance of a catastrophic failure over the 100-flight life of a space shuttle. It is the only system on the shuttle that is so classified and NASA is developing a near-term fix to reduce the chances of foam debris breaking away.”One of the options was to cover these little pieces of foam, about a pound or two pounds of foam at every bracket, cover them with a titanium shell, titanium being a metal that would retain the foam,” Hale said today. “Titanium has a low thermal conductivity, so the hope was they could fasten that to this tank and not have ice form on the outside.”They were unsuccessful in the environmental testing and the thermal testing to prevent ice from forming on the outside of the metal brackets. So the option (under development) is to reshape the foam, a reformulation of the foam to remove the SLA, or super-lightweight ablative foam core, and just use the standard foam.”The all-foam design “will be what we take to the wind tunnel tests later this month to make sure it will hold together,” Hale said. The new design is similar in appearance to an earlier design that broke apart during wind tunnel testing last spring. It was that failure that prompted NASA to stick with the current design, accepting the associated risk, while engineers developed an improved design.”To the casual observer, it’s not going to look a whole lot different than what we tried last April that didn’t hold together in the wind tunnel,” Hale said. “There are some differences internally in the way it’s put together and some small shape differences. The bottom line is, we want to reduce the footprint.”Every one of these 17 ice-frost ramps on the hydrogen part of the tank has a footprint of foam over foam, which is what we believe causes us concern with shedding of foam. So we have reduced the area of foam on top of foam, it’s a much smaller footprint, and the thermal analysis indicates we will be much less susceptible to the thermally induced cracking that occurs in the underlying foam region, which is the goal of this exercise.”This is an interim fix,” Hale said. “We’re coming back with a final fix in about eight more tanks after that. So we think we’ve got a good design, we’ll put it in the wind tunnel later this month to make sure we’ve got a good design. We’re going to have the critical design review before we start modifying the tank that’s in production at the Michoud Assembly Facility, which we hope to ship about mid December.”That tank, Hale said, will be used with shuttle mission STS-117 next February.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:MONDAY’S COUNTDOWN STATUS VIDEO:BIOGRAPHY MOVIE ON THE SIX ASTRONAUTS VIDEO:SHORT MOVIE PREVIEW OF ATLANTIS’ MISSION VIDEO:OUTLOOK ON UPCOMING STATION ASSEMBLY FLIGHTS VIDEO:CREW ARRIVES IN T-38 TRAINING JETS VIDEO:COMMENTS FROM CREW AFTER ARRIVAL VIDEO:NEWS BRIEFING ON RETURN TO PAD VIDEO:ATLANTIS ROLLBACK BEGINS VIDEO:OFFICIALS EXPLAIN LIGHTNING SCRUB VIDEO:SEE THE LIGHTNING STRIKE AT PAD B VIDEO:ANOTHER VIEW OF LIGHTNING STRIKE VIDEO:COMPLETE PREVIEW OF ATLANTIS MISSION VIDEO:DETAILS OF THE THREE SPACEWALKS VIDEO:MEET THE SIX ASTRONAUTS MORE: STS-115 patchThe official crew patch for the STS-115 mission of space shuttle Atlantis to resume orbital construction of the International Space Station.Choose your store: – – – Telescopes.comLargest selection and the best prices anywhere in the world.

Hale was asked if his willingness to consider amending a long-standing, if self-imposed, safety guideline in the face of perceived “schedule pressure” might send the wrong signal to the work force. He strongly disagreed and because this issue is so critical to the near-term shuttle launch schedule, here is his complete response:

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

Nonetheless, Boeing officials called the demonstration flight a success. The Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket ignites. Credit: Gene Blevins/LA Daily NewsThe 23-story rocket roared to life while enveloped in a hellish fire at pad 37B as free hydrogen from the three Rocketdyne RS-68 engines ignited. As the countdown reached zero, a dozen bolts that held the rocket to the pad for the past year popped and the 1.6-million pound vehicle thundered into a clear blue sky at 4:50 p.m. EST (2150 GMT).The highly complex launcher, which takes three so-called Common Booster Cores and strapped them together to create a powerful triple-body rocket, ascended atop three pillars of super-hot golden flame, flickering more than 20-stories long.Gulping three tons of propellant per second, the engines won the battle against gravity to blast the rocket away from Earth as the powerplants raged at full throttle. Nearly four minutes after liftoff, tracking cameras following the launch showed the starboard and port boosters shut down their engines and peel away from the rocket’s core. But the engine cutoff and subsequent booster separation came about 8 seconds prematurely, based on the advertised timeline.After the center booster finished firing and dropped away, the cryogenic upper stage of the Delta 4-Heavy ignited for what was supposed to be a 7-minute firing to reach an initial parking orbit around Earth. As the scheduled completion time for that burn came and went, there were indications that something was not right. The upper stage was being forced to fire much longer than anticipated to make up for a performance shortfall earlier in the launch.The unplanned overtime firing used fuel needed for later burns to reach geosynchronous orbit. The stage’s final burn Tuesday evening was supposed to last three minutes and 14 seconds to inject its cargo into the desired orbit, but the motor ran out of fuel before completing the maneuver.”I don’t know the exact, final orbit or how much shorter the final burn was. We’re going to look at the data and get those answers,” Boeing vice president for Expendable Launch Systems, Dan Collins, said in an interview Tuesday night.Collins said it was too early to say exactly what triggered the performance shortfall.”We’re going to have to dig in to know for sure. I’m going to hold off comment until we have a chance to look at it in the morning. It’s been a relatively long day. From the data we have seen, we are have high confidence that we are going to be able to track this down and make whatever adjustments are necessary. But you want to give it a day or so of looking at the data.”The Air Force awarded Boeing a $141 million contract to conduct this demonstration flight of the Delta 4-Heavy as a means of testing the rocket before critical national security payloads begin flying aboard the vehicle. Two operational launches are scheduled for August and December 2005 carrying the final Defense Support Program missile warning satellite and a classified National Reconnaissance Office payload, respectively.”I’ve spent the entire day with our customer…I can tell you we’ve got a very, very happy customer. We demonstrated all phases of this mission and we got a huge amount of data that allows us to move forward with high confidence towards the DSP mission next summer,” Collins said. “I can’t put words in the customer’s mouth but everybody in the Mission Director’s Center characterized the demonstration mission as really a truly great success. Our objective in this launch was to gather data and run through the entire mission profile. From that respect, we had a great day and a great flight. it is going take some data review for us to know exactly where we ended up.” The Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket flies downrange on the power of its three Rocketdyne RS-68 main engines. Credit: Gene Blevins/LA Daily NewsThis was the fourth launch of the Delta 4 rocket family, which Boeing created as part of the Air Force’s Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle program for next-generation vehicles to loft government payloads over the next two decades. The Delta 4, which has flown previously in its medium-lift configuration with just one Common Booster Core, is joined in the EELV stable with Lockheed Martin’s Atlas 5.Tuesday’s launch featured a 13,383-pound instrumented satellite mockup, called DemoSat, as the rocket’s main payload. The 6-foot tall, 4.5-foot diameter shiny aluminum barrel was filled with 60 brass rods for ballast. Sensors on the satellite collected data on the vibrations, temperatures and pressures during ascent, plus measure the shock felt at separation. Hitching a ride on the side of DemoSat was a pair of nanosatellites nicknamed Ralphie and Sparky. Built in collaboration between Arizona State University, New Mexico State University and the University of Colorado at Boulder, the canister-like nanosats were originally supposed to launch aboard a space shuttle mission in 2003. But the Columbia accident and grounding of the shuttle fleet led to the Air Force proposing an alternate route to orbit on Delta 4. The nanosats were deployed but their status was not immediately known. They were to operate for a day, conducting imaging, micropropulsion and intersatellite communications experiments before tumbling into the atmosphere.The Air Force decided to finance the test flight and not fly a real satellite after it became clear there wouldn’t be a commercial customer to purchase the inaugural launch.”The original strategy for demonstrating the Heavy capability was to utilize the perceived burgeoning commercial market. In 1998, this vehicle would have been a big player in what was projected back in those times. So the Air Force was in a great position. They were going to be able to benefit from the commercial launches,” Collins said. “When that commercial launch market started to go away and signs that it wasn’t going to allow the demonstration to happen, the Air Force stepped in and said ‘hey, we’ve got some important payloads to go. We want to get data before we put those on top of the rocket.’ So they came in and purchased an amendment to the development of the contract for this mission.” Besides future military missions, Delta 4-Heavy is being studied along with Atlas 5, space shuttle-derived concepts and completely new space vehicles to launch missions in NASA’s Vision for Space Exploration that aims to return astronauts to the moon and ultimately send the first humans to Mars. The Delta 4-Heavy is capable of delivering 48,000 pounds of cargo into low-Earth orbits, including that of the International Space Station, 28,000 pounds into geosynchronous transfer orbit used by communications satellites, 22,000 pounds for Trans Lunar Injection routes to the moon and 17,600 pounds on Mars-bound trajectories. “The biggest help we’re being at this point is by providing (NASA) information about the system, what its growth possibilities are, where its limitations are, so that they have the best set of data to match up with planning an overall exploration program,” Collins said of Boeing’s ongoing discussions with NASA. “We’re working hard with them but really in an information exchange situation and helping them get educated and smart on what the existing Delta capabilities are and then how Delta can grow.” Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:FROM LIFTOFF TO BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:THE DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH (SHORT VERSION) VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA RECORDS LAUNCH VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA SEES BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA CAPTURES FAIRING JETTISON AUDIO:LISTEN TO THE 68-MINUTE PRE-LAUNCH NEWS CONFERENCE VIDEO:ANIMATION PROVIDES PREVIEW OF A DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH VIDEO:RE-LIVE THE INAUGURAL DELTA 4 LAUNCH FROM 2002 VIDEO:ON-PAD FLIGHT READINESS ENGINE FIRING TEST VIDEO:TAKE TOUR OF LAUNCH PAD 37B Soviet SpaceFor the first time ever available in the West.

The Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket launches from Cape Canaveral on its test flight. Credit: Boeing photo by Carleton BailieThe three engines were snuffed out several seconds early after internal sensors were fooled into believing the liquid oxygen fuel supply had been expended. That left the rocket with a massive underspeed in which the vehicle’s upper stage could not overcome and resulted in a final orbit lower than planned.”The root cause of the anomaly has been identified as a fluid cavitation within the liquid oxygen feed system,” the Air Force said Wednesday in announcing the investigation’s findings.The cavitation, or bubbling, is a localized condition where the super-cold oxidizer changed from liquid to vapor within the feed lines running from the rocket’s tanks to engines.The Delta 4-Heavy is the largest member in Boeing’s next-generation rocket family. It takes three Common Booster Cores, each featuring a cryogenic main engine, and straps them together to form a vehicle capable of launching hefty cargos into space.Trouble on trip to spaceThe three Common Booster Cores were ignited during the final seconds of the December 21 countdown, generating 1.9-million pounds of thrust to propel the 23-story rocket away from pad 37B at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. It was meant to be a full dress rehearsal flight — with only a dummy payload aboard — to test the rocket before critical national security satellites begin using the vehicle later this year.About 50 seconds into flight, the center booster’s main engine throttled back to 58 percent thrust as a fuel conservation effort. The starboard and port boosters continued to operate at their maximum power setting of 102 percent thrust, each guzzling a ton of propellant per second. The strap-on boosters were scheduled to fire until T+plus 4 minutes, 5 seconds when the Rocketdyne-made RS-68 engine on each stage would cut off. About three seconds later, the 15-story starboard and port boosters, which provided the vast majority of thrust during the first four minutes of flight, would peel away from the center stage and tumble into the Atlantic Ocean below. But the engines shut down 8 seconds early after sensors temporarily indicated “dry” fuel conditions despite the stages having plenty of propellant remaining to accomplish the scheduled firing time. The sensors returned to “wet” readings after the shutdown sequence was already activated. Once the outer boosters were shed, the center stage’s RS-68 engine revved back to full throttle. Although the booster was identical to the outer strap-on stages, carrying the same propellant supply and engine package, it employed a more conservative fuel consumption strategy by the lower-throttle setting for the past three minutes and saved enough propellant to operate almost 90 seconds longer. But the same sensor “phenomenon” repeated on the center booster, causing its engine to shut down 9 seconds prematurely, according to investigators.

Credit: Boeing photo by Carleton BailieAfter the center booster had been jettisoned, the Delta 4-Heavy rocket’s upper stage found itself with a speed deficit of 1,500 feet/second due to the early shutdowns of the main engines. The upper stage ignited for the first of three firings planned over the 6-hour mission to geosynchronous orbit. That first burn of the Pratt & Whitney RL10 upper stage engine was supposed to last seven minutes to reach an initial parking orbit around Earth where a pair of university-built nanosatellites would be released into space. The rocket motor was designed to extend its firing time to compensate for any performance shortfalls experienced by the Common Booster Cores, and it did that. But even though the stage fired much longer than planned it still failed to reach a stable orbit, deploying the nanosats into a suborbital trajectory that took them into the atmosphere before completing a lap around the planet. The upper stage then reignited for its second scheduled burn, shaping the rocket’s track into a highly elliptical egg-shaped geosynchronous transfer orbit. It was in this orbit that the vehicle coasted for five hours to reach the high point about 19,600 nautical miles above the planet where the final engine blast would occur. This firing should have lasted three minutes to circularize the orbit. However, the stage’s precious fuel supply was greatly impacted by the extended maneuvers battling back from the Common Booster Core problem. The stage ran out of fuel about two-thirds of the way through the burn, leaving the instrumented satellite simulator payload — the rocket’s main cargo for this test flight — with an orbit featuring a high point of 19,600 nautical miles (36,400 km), low point of 9,600 nautical miles (19,000 km) and inclination of 13.5 degrees. The orbit’s low point was 10,000 miles off the target and inclination was 3.5 degrees higher than planned. Tracking down the glitchEach Common Booster Core has a large liquid hydrogen tank and a much smaller liquid oxygen tank for its RS-68 engine. The liquid oxygen tank is located at the top of each rocket stage, with a long feedline running down the booster’s side to reach the engine.”Analyses show that the cavitation originated at the entrance of the propellant feedline, where a filtration screen and turning elbow restrict the propellant flow as it accelerates leaving the tank. This feedline restriction has been present in all previous Delta 4 flights, but the unique combination of vehicle acceleration, liquid level in the tank, and propellant flow rate for this mission, reduced the fluid pressure enough to enable the creation of gaseous oxygen at this location as the tanks emptied,” Wednesday’s Air Force statement said.”Further draining of the liquid oxygen tank worsened the conditions at the feedline inlet, causing the cavitation effect to extend down the feedline until it reached the liquid depletion sensors and caused them to momentarily toggle ‘dry.’ This action was sensed by the flight computer, which initiated the sequence to throttle-down and shut off the main engines as it is programmed to do. Flight data shows that sufficient propellant remained in the tank to complete the planned first stage burn time.”A Fault Tree analysis was used to examine potential causes of the problem, including propulsion, avionics, structures and flight environments. Forty-nine of 50 Fault Tree branches were “closed” after being ruled not credible.”All closures were thoroughly documented, citing multiple sources of supporting evidence drawn from flight data, a range of focused technical analyses and computer simulation results,” the Air Force said.Other propellant phenomena like sloshing and “vapor pull-through” were analyzed and determined to be highly unlikely.”This investigation has followed a deliberate process to ensure no potential causes were missed,” said Maj. Rod Houser, investigation lead for the Air Force. “Our attention is now focused on the final open branch of the Fault Tree dealing with cavitation within the liquid oxygen feed system.” The Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket launches from Cape Canaveral on its test flight. Credit: Boeing photo by Carleton BailieEngineers have spent the past two months examining various scenarios to explain the cavitation occurring in the region near the engine cut-off sensors.”Our team used computer models to simulate the flow in the liquid oxygen feedline between the bottom of the propellant tank and the engine cut-off sensors, approximately five feet downstream,” said Mark Baldwin, Boeing’s Delta propulsion analysis manager.”The team enhanced its simulation models incrementally to include the more complex internal features of the liquid oxygen tank and feedline. Simulation runs have been completed with the higher fidelity models, resulting in an increasingly accurate simulation of the flow conditions experienced during the Heavy demonstration flight. These conditions correlated well with measurements taken by the sensors onboard the vehicle.”Boeing is examining options to fix the bubbling problem. Throughout this month, additional computer simulations are being performed to fully analyze the liquid oxygen flow between the bottom of the tanks and the engine cut-off sensors to assist in picking and verifying the corrective actions, the Air Force said.”Boeing is evaluating future missions across its Delta 4 family of launch vehicles so that adequate margin for cavitation exists under the worst case conditions,” a company spokesman said. “Cavitation margin adjustments, if required, can be made by changing the flight profile to throttle the RS-68 earlier, and can also be made by pressurizing the oxygen tank to a higher ullage pressure later in flight.”Boeing is scheduled to launch the GOES N civilian weather satellite from Cape Canaveral atop a Delta 4-Medium rocket on May 4. A Medium vehicle uses just one Common Booster Core — a configuration that has flown three times without fault.That will be followed by the first Delta 4 launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, also flying in the Medium version. It is targeted for late August to loft a classified National Reconnaissance Office Payload.The first operational Delta 4-Heavy with a real satellite payload is planned for late October when the 23rd and final Defense Support Program missile-warning spacecraft is launched directly into geostationary orbit.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:SPACEFLIGHT NOW LAUNCH PAD CAMERA 1 VIDEO:SPACEFLIGHT NOW LAUNCH PAD CAMERA 2 VIDEO:FROM LIFTOFF TO BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:THE DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH (SHORT VERSION) VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA RECORDS LAUNCH VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA SEES BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA CAPTURES FAIRING JETTISON AUDIO:LISTEN TO THE 68-MINUTE PRE-LAUNCH NEWS CONFERENCE VIDEO:ANIMATION PROVIDES PREVIEW OF A DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH VIDEO:RE-LIVE THE INAUGURAL DELTA 4 LAUNCH FROM 2002 VIDEO:ON-PAD FLIGHT READINESS ENGINE FIRING TEST VIDEO:TAKE TOUR OF LAUNCH PAD 37B Columbia ReportA reproduction of the official accident investigation report into the loss of the space shuttle Columbia and its crew of seven.

But that gap will be closed this week when the modernized replacement makes its California debut.Space Launch Complex 6 completely encloses the Delta 4-Heavy rocket during pre-flight preparations. Credit: Justin Ray/Spaceflight NowThe Delta 4-Heavy rocket, made by United Launch Alliance, is scheduled for liftoff Thursday at 1:08 p.m. PST (4:08 p.m. EST; 2108 GMT) from Space Launch Complex 6.The booster is carrying a massive spy satellite like the ones the Titans used to deploy before those rockets were in 2005.When the country’s lead agency for operating intelligence-gathering spacecraft, the National Reconnaissance Office, ordered another big satellite, plans were set in motion to bring the Delta 4-Heavy to Vandenberg. The western spaceport is the nation’s launch site for sending surveillance craft into polar orbits to observe nearly all of the planet’s surface.The SLC-6 pad at Vandenberg, built to support the space shuttles, was ideal for accommodating the Delta 4-Heavy. But engineers liken the complicated machine to launching three rockets at once, and an enhancement to the ground servicing systems was necessary.”We spent the good part of three years…upgrading the launch pad and the base infrastructure, in total more than $100 million in infrastructure improvements,” said Lt. Col. Brady Hauboldt, the Air Force launch director and Vandenberg’s 4th Space Launch Squadron commander.”Most recently over the past year we’ve completed all pad activation and first article testing with that launch vehicle in place to ensure missionsuccess.”The Delta 4-Heavy stands atop SLC-6. Credit: Justin Ray/Spaceflight NowThe Delta 4-Heavy is created by taking three Common Booster Cores — the liquid hydrogen-fueled motor that forms a Delta 4-Medium’s first stage — and strapping them together to form a triple-barrel rocket, then adding a cryogenic upper stage. The combined punch can propel about 50,000 pounds of cargo into polar orbit.Supplying those four stages with the supercold fluids and commodities, keeping the payload comfortable with conditioned air and the special hardware for servicing the 23-story rocket were among the changes made to the site.After hosting a pair of medium-class Delta 4 rocket launches in and , approval for the Heavy modification work came on December 1, 2006, kicking off a design and analysis period that went to July 2007. Ordering of equipment, fabrication and assembly, the installation and the testing stretched from March 2007 to July 2010.”(SLC-6) wasn’t sized or configured to support the Heavy variant, and that decision goes back quite a few years. In fact, I was at the Pentagon when those decisions were being made. It’s ironic now that I get to come back and implement them,” said Hauboldt.Tail service masts await installation on the launch table in this picture taken in June 2008. Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight NowMore than 835 parts were bought from over 280 suppliers and 35 contractors, and 370 United Launch Alliance employees and hired labor worked on the pad upgrade, according to Jim Boyle, ULA site director at SLC-6.”We’re modifying existing systems that were already here, just adding the capacity in many cases to handle three-of-things, three Common Booster Cores. But it was an extensive effort, took over three years,” said Boyle.”We had very to little to do with the actual structure of the pad — the concrete, the launch table. It was mostly being able to provide the ability to service.”The specific changes included:Installing box-shaped structures, called tail service masts, to route power, data, gases and the vacuum-jacketed liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen lines to the bottoms of the outboard rocket stages.Helium and gaseous nitrogen supply and system upgrades to feed the bigger rocket.Propulsion system mods in the pad’s pneumatics room and launch mount.Enhancing the pad’s air conditioning unit and the environmental control system ducts to the rocket.Equipping the launch pad’s lower swing arm with umbilicals to interface with the outboard boosters.Adding an upward extension to the top swing arm for providing air conditioning to the nose cone and payload.Adjusting access platforms inside the mobile service gantry.Installing a backup generator to power the extra ground support equipment.Equipping the pad with cooling water and hydrogen burnoff sparklers for the outboard boosters’ main engines.And, late in the program, an auxiliary liquid oxygen storage tank was added to give the launch team a capability for multiple countdowns without needing to replenish reserves.The other substantial effort involved analyzing the sound and rumble the Delta 4-Heavy will created during its slow ascent off the pad.”There’s been some extensive vibration — noise — analysis done to look at how the unique Vandenberg terrain effects the payload and the launch vehicle electronics,” Hauboldt said.”Launching a Heavy out of here makes a lot more acoustics, makes a lot more vibrations than a Medium, so we had to go make sure that not only the pad but the rocket could handle those different environments,” Boyle added.The rocket was constructed at ULA’s factory in Decatur, Alabama. In mid-August 2009, the three booster cores and upper stage were loaded into ocean-going Delta Mariner vessel for a month-long, 4,000+ mile trip through the Panama Canal and around to Vandenberg.After late-September 2009 at the harbor once envisioned for receiving the space shuttle fuel tank barge, the first West Coast Heavy rolled onto California soil and moved up the road to SLC-6 over a three-day period.The Horizontal Integration Facility at the complex is the garage-like hangar were the rocket stages were attached together and tested to verify the Heavy was prepared for the launch pad.While that assembly work was going on, pad-readiness tests were being run to ensure the site would give the rocket a warm welcome in early 2010.The Delta 4-Heavy rolls to the SLC-6 pad in January 2010. Credit: ULA videoRiding horizontally on a motorized hauler, the 184,000-pound rocket was where hydraulic pistons pushed the vehicle atop the pad on January 29.The rest of the year was spent doing exhaustive testing to operate pad systems with the rocket and uncover problems that could be fixed before the real countdown on launch day.”It was an incredibly busy summer, practically like having several otherlaunch campaigns going simultaneously,” Hauboldt said.”It included two tanking tests and numerous wet dress rehearsals to get us comfortable with the systems and configurations. We also had several crew rehearsals to ensure the team was similarly prepared for day of launch. We’ve exercised our new gaseous nitrogen plant extensively. We’ve had logistics demonstrations, security demonstrations. The 30th Space Wing has really gone above and beyond to make sure that everything is in place and ready to go for day of launch.”So now the stage is set for liftoff on Thursday, a critical mission carrying a clandestine satellite for the National Reconnaissance Office and the country’s intelligence analysts.”Bringing a new launch vehicle configuration into Space Launch Complex 6isn’t as simple as stacking a new rocket. Although it’s a Delta 4, the Heavyconfiguration required substantial modification and resizing to handleessentially three rockets on the pad at the same time,” Hauboldt said.”This Delta 4-Heavy is the first-of-its-kind national capability here at Vandenberg. We don’t currently have this ability to launch any heavy satellites into polar orbit. The Delta 4-Heavy upgrades that we’ve done at SLC-6 as well as bringing the rocket out here allow us to put satellites of that type into orbit to support our downrange customers.”John Glenn Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The historic first orbital flight by an American is marked by this commemorative patch for John Glenn and Friendship 7.Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is available in our store.

Its level of complexity causes engineers to liken it to launching three rockets at one time. And its fiery blastoffs create a dazzling yet heart-in-your-throat sight. Now, the mammoth Delta 4-Heavy has entered operational service with Saturday night’s successful ascent carrying a critical surveillance satellite. Credit: Ben Cooper/Spaceflight NowTowering more than 230 feet tall and packing nearly two million pounds of thrust from its three hydrogen-fueled main engines, this rocket is built to loft big payloads. And the roomy nose cone offers spacious accommodations for exceptionally large spacecraft.The Delta 4-Heavy’s characteristics make it well suited for launching a Defense Support Program (DSP) missile warning satellite into geosynchronous orbit 22,300 miles above the planet.But in its lone previous flight three years ago, the Heavy encountered an unexpected problem within its fuel lines, causing the engines to snuff out a few seconds early and leaving the rocket well short of the intended orbit. That December 2004 launch was only a test, an Air Force-financed demonstration flight designed to uncover the unknown flaws in the system before expensive and vital national security payloads were entrusted to the big booster.”It’s always better to find a problem than to have a latent and yet-to-be-discovered (problem). That’s part of why we considered the Heavy demo such a success. It was a very subtle problem, but we found it and we fixed it,” said Col. Jim Planeaux, the Delta group commander at the Space and Missile Systems Center.The test rocket was outfitted with vast amounts of data-collecting sensors to understand all aspects of the ascent, leading to some other changes before the first operational launch. Credit: Ben Cooper/Spaceflight Now”We took a lot of readings on accelerations, vibrations, acoustics in the various compartments of the vehicle. In a few cases (we) determined that they were higher than we expected and we either modified the hardware slightly or moved some of the components to a more benign environment. We finished all of those (modifications) late last year, and we’re very comfortable with the vehicle we’ve got.”Rocket-maker United Launch Alliance and the Air Force, both confident that the Heavy was ready for a real mission, fired off the rocket from Cape Canaveral in Florida at 8:50 p.m. EST (0150 GMT) Saturday evening.Hidden inside the long metallic nose cone rode the Defense Support Program 23 spacecraft, the last in a series of eye-in-the-sky satellites designed to spot enemy missile launches and nuclear explosions. DSP satellites have been flying since November 1970, rocketing into orbit aboard various versions of now-retired Titan rockets and the space shuttle. This final one — DSP 23 — has been waiting more than two years for the new Heavy to hoist it into space.The Delta 4-Heavy is created by taking three Common Booster Cores — the liquid hydrogen-fueled motor that forms a Delta 4-Medium’s first stage — and strapping them together to form a three-wide rocket, and then adding the powerful upper stage.Each 15-story booster core features a Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne RS-68 main engine that generates 650,000 pounds of thrust while burning supercold liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen propellants. The cryogenic upper stage has the Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne RL10B-2 powerplant. Credit: Ben Cooper/Spaceflight NowAs the countdown entered the final seconds, liquid hydrogen rushed through the three RS-68 engines and then the powerplants roared to ignition. A massive cloud of fire raced up the rocket, creating a visually awesome but terrifying display. A dozen explosive bolts holding the vehicle to pad 37B detonated as clocks struck zero to free the Heavy to begin climbing as three launch pad swing arms pulled back.Data from the test flight showed the ignition fireball created hot temperatures around the nose cone, leading to another change for the DSP satellite launch.”We’ve done a lot of thinking about it since (the test). It does get pretty hot up around even the payload vents. So to mitigate that, we’ve added some modifications to this particular payload fairing to essentially keep the plume out as the vehicle rises and still allow the payload compartment to vent properly,” Planeaux said.”When you’ve got a payload that’s very sensitive to contamination, we had to go through some fairly elaborate measures to ensure we were well protected there.”The three identical main engines, the world’s largest hydrogen-fueled rocket engine and each capable of generating 17 million horsepower, propelled the vehicle into a clear night sky with three distinct red-hot plumes trailing more than 200 feet long.See our image collections:About 50 seconds into flight, the center Common Booster Core’s engine was throttled back to its minimum power level of 57 percent thrust to conserve fuel that became important later. The starboard and port boosters continued firing at full throttle — 102 percent thrust — through the launch’s first four minutes before emptying their liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen propellant tanks and shutting down the RS-68 engines. The boosters peeled away and plummeted into the Atlantic Ocean.Once the outer boosters were shed, the center stage finally throttled back up to 102 percent for more than a minute of propulsion, consuming that fuel supply saved during the period of reduced thrust. The stage was jettisoned about five minutes, 40 seconds after liftoff, leaving the rocket’s upper stage and payload to continue the journey to orbit.About 13 minutes into flight, the upper stage completed its first burn to achieve an initial parking orbit above Earth and entered an hour-long coast mode until it reached the extreme western Pacific Ocean northeast of Australia. That is where the RL10 engine was re-ignited to reach a geosynchronous transfer orbit stretching 22,000 miles at its high point.The stage then coasted in this orbit, eventually reaching the apogee where the RL10 engine was fired for a third time starting at T+plus 6 hours, 10 minutes. The three-minute burn circularized the orbit over the equator off the western coast of South America.At 3:09 a.m. EST, the 5,179-pound DSP satellite was released from the Delta 4-Heavy rocket to complete the launch.”Last night’s successful countdown and flight culminate a tremendous amount of hard work by the entire Air Force launch team and our industry partners. Congratulations to all who made this challenging and spectacular launch of the DSP 23 satellite a reality,” Planeaux said. Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight Now”As the first operational launch of a Delta 4 Heavy Lift Vehicle, it marks a major milestone accomplishment for the EELV program and for assured access to space.”Bringing the Heavy version of the Air Force’s Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle family into operational service, the military has now successfully replaced the retired Titan rocket fleet for deploying large satellite payloads.”This success highlights the continued maturization of our EELV program,” said Brig. Gen. Susan Helms, 45th Space Wing commander at Cape Canaveral.Another Heavy is next up on the Delta 4’s launch schedule. An April liftoff is planned from Cape Canaveral to deliver a classified spy satellite into orbit for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office.Officials plan a five-month gap between Saturday’s flight and the subsequent launch while engineers complete a thorough review of data.”That has a five-month standoff to digest all of the analysis and redo all of the loads for the payload. But we look forward to not taking any more time than that to launch NROL-26,” said Mark Wilkins, United Launch Alliance vice president for Delta Programs.Another secret NRO launch using a Heavy from the Cape is planned in 2009, followed no sooner than 2010 the first Heavy flight from California’s Vandenberg Air Force Base with another NRO payload. Outfitting of that West Coast pad to install equipment for the larger rocket has begun.For more on Defense Support Program 23 satellite launched Saturday night, see our separate story .Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:WIDESCREEN MOVIE OF LAUNCH SHOT FROM PRESS SITE VIDEO:DELTA 4-HEAVY ROCKETS LAUNCHES WITH DSP 23 VIDEO:PRE-LAUNCH NEWS CONFERENCE VIDEO:ANIMATION OF DSP SATELLITE VIDEO:DSP 23 SATELLITE IS TRANSPORTED TO PAD 37B VIDEO:THE DSP 23 SPACECRAFT MOUNTED ATOP ADAPTER VIDEO:FIRST DELTA 4-HEAVY FROM LIFTOFF TO BOOSTER SEP.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: July 12, 2014 After a string of delays cause by stormy weather, conflicts with other flights and an engine test failure, Orbital Sciences Corp. is readying an Antares rocket for launch Sunday on a voyage to deliver 1.7 tons of cargo and supplies to the International Space Station, the company’s second commercial resupply mission. Photo of the Antares rocket on launch pad 0A at Wallops Flight Facility. Credit: NASA/Bill IngallsWith forecasters predicting a 90 percent chance of acceptable weather, the two-stage 133-foot-tall Antares was scheduled for launch from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport at NASA’s Wallops Island Flight Facility on the Virginia coast at 12:52 p.m. EDT (GMT-4) Sunday, the opening of a five-minute launch window.”We’re very proud and pleased to be back here at Wallops again, conducting this operation leading up to the launch of Antares,” said Frank Culbertson, a former shuttle commander who serves as Orbital’s vice president and general manager of advanced programs. “We’re real proud to be part of the team that is keeping the station flying and providing the crew with the cargo and research they need.” Orbital engineers had hoped to launch the rocket and its company-developed Cygnus cargo ship Friday, but the flight was delayed through the weekend by severe weather that interrupted ground processing.Assuming an on-time launch Sunday, the uncrewed Cygnus capsule will reach the space station early Wednesday, pulling up to within about 30 feet and then standing by while the lab’s robot arm locks on to pull it in for berthing at the Earth-facing port of the forward Harmony module.The spacecraft is loaded with 3,669 pounds of crew supplies, including food for the lab’s crew, spare parts and other station hardware, science equipment, spacewalk components and computer hardware.The science equipment includes a variety of student experiments, supplies for NASA’s Human Research Facility, igniters for the station’s combustion test facility and a Japanese experiment that will study Marangoni convection, a type of heat transfer between solids and liquids that could lead to improvements in microgravity life support systems.Also on board: 28 small satellites — nanosats — built by Planet Labs of San Francisco, part of a growing fleet of “Dove” spacecraft being tested in a commercial venture to continuously photograph the Earth. Four other nanosats also are on board, including one built by NASA to test techniques for returning small experiment samples to the ground. The Orb-2 mission patch. Credit: Orbital Sciences Corp.The Cygnus spacecraft will remain attached to the station for about a month. After it is unloaded and re-packed with trash and no-longer-needed equipment, the cargo ship will be released to burn up in Earth’s atmosphere. Before re-entry, Orbital flight controllers plan to test new rendezvous equipment and procedures intended to allow Cygnus capsules to remain aloft for extended periods, enabling research after the spacecraft leave the station.This will be Orbital’s second operational station resupply mission — Orb-2 — under a $1.9 billion commercial contract with NASA calling for eight flights through 2016 to deliver some 40,000 pounds of supplies and equipment. SpaceX holds a similar $1.6 billion contract covering 12 resupply flights to deliver 44,000 pounds of cargo.SpaceX has carried out three resupply missions to date with a fourth on tap in September and a fifth in December. Orbital plans its third resupply flight in October with two more on tap next year.This week’s Antares launching originally was planned for May, but the flight was delayed to early June, at NASA’s request, because of conflicts with other station traffic. Then, on May 22, a first-stage engine being test fired for an Antares/Cygnus resupply flight next year suffered a catastrophic failure 30 seconds into a planned 54-second burn. The engine was destroyed, and the planned June flight was put on hold pending an investigation.The Antares first stage is powered by two AJ26 engines supplied by Aerojet Rocketdyne. The engines originally were developed for the Soviet Union’s ill-fated N-1 moon rocket. When that program was cancelled after multiple launch failures, the engines were stockpiled and in the 1990s, Aerojet bought about 40 of the powerplants and modified them for use aboard U.S. rockets.The May 22 test failure “obviously sparked a very thorough investigation led by Aerojet Rocketdyne, our engine supplier, supported fully by Orbital with a lot of help by NASA,” said Mike Pinkston, Orbital’s Antares program manager. “That was a lengthy process and the primary source of the delay from the early part of June to where we are today.”The failure investigation is not yet complete and no details have been provided to the media. But the engines scheduled for use Sunday were cleared for flight after internal boroscope inspections and a review of data collected during their own test firings earlier.”We saw what we needed to see with that and with the fact that these engines successfully passed the same acceptance process, not only here in the United States, but also twice after original manufacture in Russia,” Pinkston said. “They’ve got a lot of test time on them. We’ve got a lot of confidence that the two engines on Orb-2 are ready to go.”Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is now available in our store.

The Cygnus spacecraft is released from the International Space Station. Credit: NASA TVThe automated solar-powered spaceship disengaged from the space station’s robotic arm at 1141 GMT (6:41 a.m. EST) as the duo sailed 260 miles over the South Atlantic Ocean east of Argentina.Astronauts Mike Hopkins and Koichi Wakata monitored the activities from inside the space station’s windowed cupola module. Hopkins was assigned the job of detaching the robot arm from Cygnus.Moments later, astronauts inside the space station sent commands for the Cygnus spacecraft to fire thrusters and fly away from the complex. It cleared the space station’s “keep out” sphere, an imaginary safety zone around the outpost, a few minutes after separating from the robot arm.The Cygnus vehicle’s pressurized logistics module is packed with bags of trash and unnecessary gear loaded by the space station’s six-person crew. Like cargo vehicles supplied by Europe, Japan and Russia, the Cygnus spacecraft is designed to burn up during re-entry, disposing of garbage over a remote stretch of the South Pacific Ocean.Re-entry between New Zealand and South America is scheduled for around 1820 GMT (1:20 p.m. EST) Wednesday after a pair of braking maneuvers to slow the Cygnus spacecraft’s velocity and lower its orbit.The last day of the Cygnus mission will be controlled from Orbital Sciences’ headquarters in Dulles, Va.The Cygnus spacecraft is on the first of eight operationally cargo delivery flights under a $1.9 billion commercial resupply contract between Orbital Sciences and NASA. The space agency has a similar deal with SpaceX for a dozen missions worth $1.6 billion.The mission delivered nearly 2,800 pounds of supplies to the space station when it arrived Jan. 12, three days after launching from Wallops Island, Va., aboard an Antares rocket.The deliveries included an ant colony for students to observe how the ants behave in space, an experiment in drug-resistant bacteria, and investigations into how liquids slosh inside containers in microgravity and the behavior of fires in space.The scientific complement of the Cygnus spacecraft’s cargo load amounted to nearly 1,000 pounds, the biggest delivery of experiments to the space station by one of the two U.S. commercial logistics vehicles.Orbital Sciences achieved a Cygnus demonstration mission to the space station last year before proceeding into the contracted flights.SpaceX and Orbital Sciences developed their resupply freighters and launch vehicles with public and private funding through a public-private partnership with NASA, which turned to the commercial sector to haul experiments and supplies to the space station after the retirement of the space shuttle.SpaceX plans a launch of its Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spaceship from Cape Canaveral to the space station March 16. Orbital’s next cargo flight is due to launch around May 1 aboard an Antares rocket from Virginia.Follow Stephen Clark on Twitter: .STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

Credit: NASA TVThe Wideband Global SATCOM 4 spacecraft, better known as WGS 4, will ride a United Launch Alliance Delta 4 rocket into orbit Jan. 19 from the Florida spaceport’s pad 37B.Liftoff will be possible during a 93-minute window extending from 7:38 to 9:11 p.m. EST (0038-0211 GMT).Already tucked inside the rocket’s five-meter-diameter, 47-foot-tall nose cone, a process that was accomplished before the holidays while still at the spacecraft preparation facility in Titusville, WGS 4 was driven on a specialized transporter across the river, through Kennedy Space Center and over to Complex 37 in the frigid predawn darkness Wednesday.After entering the pad and climbing the ramp to the launch site around 3:30 a.m. EST, the motorized hauler was parked on the backside of the mobile service gantry to complete the 25-mile trip.There, the pad’s crane lowered down to take hold of the payload for carefully hoisting the 6.5-ton satellite into the tower and positioning it atop the rocket’s second stage for attachment.File image of Delta payload ready for hoisting into the pad tower. Credit: NASAThe milestone move kicks off the final two weeks of the pre-launch campaign, which will include integrated testing between the Delta 4 rocket and WGS 4 spacecraft, closeouts of the vehicle compartments for flight and a series of readiness reviews to verify all systems are “go” for blastoff.It will be first rocket launch from Cape Canaveral of the new year and begins the Delta 4 rocket’s 2012 that is dedicated to military service with as many as five flights scheduled from both Florida and Vandenberg Air Force Base in California to deploy WGS, GPS and classified National Reconnaissance Office spacecraft.WGS 4 starts an enhanced “block” of satellites with improved bandwidth for communications to the military’s remotely-controlled unmanned aerial drones, which are used for surveillance, intelligence-gathering and offensive operations.The Air Force says it plans to put this WGS 4 spacecraft into service over the Middle East and Southeast Asia for U.S. Central Command and U.S. Pacific Command.An artist’s concept of WGS antenna arrangement. Credit: BoeingWeighing about 13,000 pounds at launch, the craft’s communications package provides shaped, steerable spotbeams of bandwidth wherever requested across its field-of-view for Ka- and X-band frequencies, plus the onboard capability to convert signals from one band to the other. The data transmission rates range from 2.1 to 3.6 Gbps. Once fully unfurled in space, the craft’s solar-power wings will span 134 feet.Three WGS spacecraft are operating in geosynchronous orbit today, and The Boeing Co. has four more in production at its El Segundo factory in Los Angeles. The craft are built upon the company’s powerhouse 702-model design.For over four decades, the Defense Satellite Communications System was the foundation for flowing secure information to military forces around the globe. But that heritage system is being phased out as the aging craft retire and the new WGS satellites ascend to orbit to take advantage of new technology.The final DSCS craft was launched by a Delta 4 rocket in 2003. ()An artist’s concept of WGS spotbeams. Credit: BoeingEach WGS bird possesses 10 times the capacity of a DSCS satellite and offers 19 coverage areas with its steerable antennas versus 8 under the heritage craft.The X-band communications through DSCS and WGS allow data, photos and video to be relayed to troops on the battlefield. But WGS also brings Ka-band to the table for high-volume broadcasting to user terminals across the reception area.At the heart of each WGS is an internal box called a digital channelizer that enables a user with a Ka-band terminal to seamlessly connect to someone with an X-band terminal, or vice versa.But the new Block 2 satellites, beginning with WGS 4, come with a bypass feature for unmanned aerial drone communications to skip the crossbanding path and use two uplink and two downlink channels that offer three times the bandwidth as the normal channels, opening up a much wider pipeline for data to flow.File image of Delta 4 Medium+(5,4) on the pad for WGS 3. Credit: ULAThe Delta 4 carrying WGS 4 will be flying in the Medium+(5,4) configuration, which is the most powerful of the Medium-version rockets and below only the triple-core Heavy in the modular family’s lineup.The Medium+(5,4) has a five-meter-diameter upper stage loaded with more cryogenic propellants than the optional four-meter motor used for other launches, such as GPS missions. The rocket also has a full set of four solid-fuel boosters strapped to the first stage, double the number used for GPS and other lower-weight payloads.The first stage is powered by the RS-68 hydrogen-fed main engine and the upper stage has the RL10B-2 engine, the powerplants used on all 17 Delta 4 missions to date.With WGS 4 now aboard, the fully stacked rocket stands 217 feet, 7 inches tall and looks ready for blastoff in just 15 days.

S. intelligence community, already burdened with growing tasksfrom an increasingly dangerous world.The satellite is likely an “Advanced Mentor” design, accordingto GlobalSecurity.Org, a military think tank. Earlier versions weredesignated Orion.Due to satellite development delays and a 1998 Titan launchfailure involving an earlier “Mercury” eavesdropper design, the U.S.has fallen as much as one or two spacecraft behind its original 10-yearschedule to launch such giant eavesdroppers. These spacecraft providethe kind of information the White House, State Dept. and Pentagonneed to make military and national foreign policy decisions.It is also likely a “broad spectrum” satellite that can update keyfrequency information on hostile radars and other detection systemsthat could threaten U.S. forces.The three earlier Mentor spacecraft introduced a very large’wrap-rib’ deployable antenna design spanning up to 350 feet, saysGlobalSecurity.Org. The Delta 4-Heavy rocket launches at 9:47 p.m. EST on January 17.Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight NowThe National Security Agency will be the prime distributor of thespacecraft’s data, sending information from the satellite to theother 15 agencies and organizations that now make up theintelligence community.It has been five years since a large geosynchronous orbiteavesdropping satellite has been launched from Cape Canaveral. Thatearlier satellite, believed to have been a less capable version ofthe Mentor, was lofted on board a Titan-Centaur booster inSeptember 2003.Over the last two-and-a-half years, however, two different eavesdroppingsatellites have been launched on smaller Delta 4-Medium and Atlas 5rockets from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif. These spacecraft, withsmaller antennas, are in highly elliptical orbits of roughly 700 x 23,500miles.Instead of remaining parked over one location above the equator,these Vandenberg-launched satellites travel up and down over thenorthern hemisphere. They can listen into radio communications fromdifferent locations or radio waves monitored from different angles,compared with geosynchronous orbit satellites.The data from these different eavesdroppers is then combined andassessed with other sources of information including that obtained byaircraft such as advanced versions of the U-2.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:FULL LAUNCH EXPERIENCE VIDEO:LAUNCH PAD CAMERA NO. 1 VIDEO:LAUNCH PAD CAMERA NO. 2 VIDEO:THE DELTA 4-HEAVY ROCKET LIFTS OFF VIDEO:LAUNCH AS SEEN FROM PRESS VIEWING SITE VIDEO:TIME-LAPSE MOVIE OF THE GANTRY RETRACTING VIDEO:LAUNCH PAD’S MOBILE GANTRY ROLLED BACK MORE:STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

File image of a Delta 4-Heavy rocket. Credit: Pat Corkery/United Launch AllianceCountdown clocks are targeting a liftoff time of 6:06 p.m. EST (2306 GMT) from the Florida spaceport’s Complex 37. The evening’s available launch opportunity likely extends upwards of four hours.The original launch date of Thursday was delayed by 24 hours to fix an issue with ground pyrotechnics that release the big booster at liftoff. See our for live coverage.United Launch Alliance’s Delta 4-Heavy is America’s biggest unmanned rocket currently in service, capable of lofting the largest and heftiest cargos. The mammoth vehicle is created by taking three Common Booster Cores — the liquid hydrogen-fueled motor that forms a Delta 4-Medium’s first stage — and strapping them together to form a triple-barrel rocket, and then adding an upper stage.The nighttime blastoff should be visually spectacular, lighting up the Space Coast with three distinct pillars of fire from the main engines trailing more than 200 feet long. Ideal viewing spots include off SR401 at Port Canaveral, along the 528 causeway or on the riverbanks in Titusville.Thundering eastward across the open Atlantic, the rocket will soar out of sight within a few minutes as it embarks on a multi-hour mission to serve the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office, the agency responsible for the country’s fleet of intelligence-gathering satellites.The NRO’s diverse spacecraft, including telescope-like observers and communications collectors, uncover looming dangers to the nation and provide surveillance over the world’s hot spots.”Always vigilant, the NRO’s eyes and ears give America’s policy markers, intelligence analysts, warfighters and homeland security specialists the critical information they need to keep America safe, secure and free,” the agency says.The clandestine payload going up this time, known only by its launch identification number of NROL-32, is widely believed to be an essential eavesdropping spacecraft that requires the powerful lift provided by the Delta 4-Heavy to reach its listening post.In an address to the Air Force Association conference in September, NRO Director Bruce Carlson, a retired Air Force general, said this rocket launch would carry “the largest satellite in the world on it.”The NRO has flown various types of communication-interceptors since the dawn of the space age, and analysts say it is virtually certain this Delta 4-Heavy is hauling another.”I believe the payload is the fifth in the series of what we call Mentor spacecraft, a.k.a. Advanced Orion, which gather signals intelligence from inclined geosynchronous orbits. They are among the largest satellites ever deployed,” said Ted Molczan, a respected sky-watcher who keeps tabs on orbiting spacecraft.Destined for geosynchronous orbit 22,300 miles above the planet, this new spacecraft supposedly will unfurl an extremely lightweight but gigantically huge umbrella-like antenna to overhear enemy communications and aid U.S. intelligence.”The satellite likely consists of sensitive radio receivers and an antenna generally believed to span up to 100 meters (328 feet) to gather electronic intelligence for the National Security Agency,” Molczan said.Observers think the mesh antenna’s diameter is the size of a football field, comparable to the International Space Station’s remarkable width. That explains why satellite-tracking hobbyists say these Mentor craft are “by far the brightest” in the high-flying geosynchronous orbital perch to see from the ground, outshining conventional television relay birds, weather sentinels and the like.Although NRO satellites are secretive by nature, the spacecraft are visible by just looking up. Molczan is member of a hobbyist group that routinely finds and watches the craft while monitoring the skies with precision.But despite the identity of this particular satellite being obvious, exactly where in the geosynchronous belt it will be positioned and what part of the globe it will cover are details that remain hush-hush.”The upcoming launch may replace one of the older spacecraft in the series, or augment the fleet by occupying a new location in geosynchronous orbit,” Molczan said. File image of a Delta 4-Heavy rocket launch. Credit: Pat Corkery/United Launch AlliancePrevious Mentor satellites were launched by Titan 4 rockets from Cape Canaveral in 1995, 1998 and 2003, plus the most recent Delta 4-Heavy in early 2009 carried one, according to the satellite-tracking hobbyists.The craft lineage can be traced to the two Magnum satellites trucked to orbit aboard the space shuttle Discovery during the STS-51C mission in 1985 and STS-33 in 1989, historians have indicated.An even earlier generation launched in the 1970s using Atlas rockets from the Cape, according to the authoritative website.Friday’s rocket launch continues a surge of NRO spy satellite deployments after a lengthy 20-month lull. An Atlas 5 rocket began this ongoing campaign by dispatching a new-generation radar imaging satellite in September from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California.The upcoming schedule calls for several more significant launches in the next few months:A Delta 4-Heavy rocket for NROL-49 from Vandenberg on January 11A Delta 4 rocket for NROL-27 from Cape Canaveral on March 4An Atlas 5 for NROL-34 from Vandenberg on March 31Carlson said “this is the most aggressive launch campaign that the National Reconnaissance Office has had in 20 years, almost a quarter of a century.””The other thing I can tell you is these are very important, because they all go to update a constellation which is aging rapidly. We bought most of our satellites for three, five, or eight years, and we’re keeping them on orbit for ten, twelve, and up to twenty years,” Carlson said.”Now, when I buy something people complain about how expensive it is, but nobody ever complains when it’s time to die and it keeps right on ticking. Some of these guys are like the Energizer bunny and they have really done marvelous work.”We’re doing things that were designed to essentially operate during the era of the Soviet Union that are today doing tactical intelligence collection that leads us to actionable intelligence on bad guys every day. Every day. And we’re doing it with equipment that’s 15, 18, and 20 years old.”STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

Free hydrogen ignites as the three RS-68 main engines roar to life during the final seconds of the Delta 4-Heavy rocket’s launch countdown. Credit: Gene Blevins/LA Daily News”The flight data review was extremely thorough, scrutinizing not only the extensive, standard flight telemetry data, but also the additional data from more than 500 channels of special instrumentation, specifically installed for this first Heavy mission,” said Col. John Insprucker, Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle Program Director at the Air Force’s Space and Missile Systems Center.Officials sifted through mounds of data collected from liftoff through deployment of the mock satellite cargo during the Air Force-ordered test launch. The Defense Department awarded Boeing a $141 million contract to fly the first Delta 4-Heavy on a demonstration launch instead of carrying a real payload. “It’s important to remember that the primary payload for this mission was really the instrumentation we carried onboard,” Col. Insprucker said. “Our investment in telemetry and additional special instrumentation is helping us quickly zero in on the cause of the anomaly, and I’m confident the data will also enable us to fine-tune all aspects of our future Delta 4 heavy-lift missions.”The December 21 flight was deemed a success despite a problem impacting the firing time of all three Common Booster Cores, which were strapped together to form the rocket’s first stage. The Rocketdyne-made RS-68 main engine on each booster shut down several seconds early, causing a speed deficit that the rocket’s upper stage could not overcome. The dummy satellite was delivered into an orbit much lower than planned and two nanosats were lost.The ongoing investigation to determine why the engines stopped firing 8 seconds prematurely on the port and starboard boosters and 9 seconds early on the center stage has narrowed the list of possible culprits. The leading theory continues to be a condition called cavitation where liquid oxygen flowing through the feedline from the tank to the engine turns to gaseous oxygen. This phenomenon is believed to have occurred around internal sensors that are designed to tell the engines when to shut down. The sensors reacted to the bubbles, thought the boosters had run out of liquid oxygen and commanded the RS-68s to cut off. But each motor had plenty of liquid oxygen remaining in their tanks to finish the normal firing time.Using the standard investigative tool known as a Fault Tree analysis, the team has cleared 42 of 49 potential causes, including the sensors themselves and the main engines. All 7 remaining branches in the Fault Tree involve various types of disturbances in the flow of liquid oxygen, the Air Force said. The Delta 4-Heavy rocket launches on its test flight. Credit: Gene Blevins/LA Daily News”The team is meeting daily across multiple locations to complete the investigation,” said Dan Collins, vice president of Boeing Expendable Launch Systems. “Determining root cause from the remaining 7 open branches is the top priority.”Computer models that simulate the liquid oxygen flow within the feedline on each booster are examining the cavitation scenario. The liquid oxygen tank is located at the top-end of each stage, above the liquid hydrogen fuel tank, with a feedline running down the length of the booster to the main engine. The Air Force says the engine cutoff sensors are positioned about five feet downstream of the liquid oxygen tank.”Initial simulation runs have already given new insight into the flow dynamics in the feedline (velocity and pressure patterns). The team will progressively add details to the computer models to build up an accurate representation of the internal features of the tank and feedline, and to simulate the flight conditions at the time of the premature engine cutoff,” the Space and Missile Systems Center said in a statement Friday.”The simulation team will use these models, along with the flight sensor data, to identify where cavitation is most likely to have developed in the liquid oxygen flow for the Heavy demonstration flight conditions. The onset of cavitation is thought to be caused by a unique combination of vehicle acceleration,?liquid oxygen?level in the propellant tank,?tank pressures,?feedline internal features and flow rates in the feedline when the RS-68 engine is at full power.”The team also plans to simulate liquid oxygen flow under flight conditions from previous Delta 4 missions, where the anomaly was not observed, to help verify the accuracy of the complex computer models.”Three previous Delta 4 missions have flown — all successfully and on target — in the so-called Medium configuration that features just one Common Booster Core. The Heavy design uses three booster cores in order to launch much heftier payloads.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:FROM LIFTOFF TO BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:THE DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH (SHORT VERSION) VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA RECORDS LAUNCH VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA SEES BOOSTER SEPARATION VIDEO:ONBOARD CAMERA CAPTURES FAIRING JETTISON AUDIO:LISTEN TO THE 68-MINUTE PRE-LAUNCH NEWS CONFERENCE VIDEO:ANIMATION PROVIDES PREVIEW OF A DELTA 4-HEAVY LAUNCH VIDEO:RE-LIVE THE INAUGURAL DELTA 4 LAUNCH FROM 2002 VIDEO:ON-PAD FLIGHT READINESS ENGINE FIRING TEST VIDEO:TAKE TOUR OF LAUNCH PAD 37B Apollo 11 special patchSpecial collectors’ patch marking the 35th anniversary of the historic Apollo 11 moon landing is now available.Choose your store: – – – Inside Apollo mission controlAn insider’s view of how Apollo flight controllers operated and just what they faced when events were crucial.

Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight NowSEE MORE LAUNCH IMAGES The year’s finale began at 3:04 p.m. EST as the Delta 2 booster darted away from pad 17A carrying the newest craft for the Global Positioning System.The three-stage launcher propelled the 4,500-pound satellite into a highly elliptical orbit reaching about 11,000 miles at the high point, 100 miles at the lowest and inclined 40 degrees to the equator. The Lockheed Martin-made satellite was released from the spent rocket 68 minutes after liftoff.”The Delta 2 and GPS team did great work throughout this launch campaign,” said Col. James Planeaux, Air Force mission director for the launch and commander of the Delta Group. “I’m thrilled to see those long hours and dedication to the mission rewarded with a pinpoint orbit insertion for GPS 2R-18.”A solid-propellant kick motor on the satellite itself will fire in a few days to circularize its orbit at 11,000 miles and increase the inclination to 55 degrees where the GPS constellation flies. The craft should be ready to enter service within a couple of weeks.”The successful deployment of this high-performance satellite represents another important milestone in the modernization of the GPS constellation and reflects our commitment to achieving mission success for our customer,” said Don DeGryse, Lockheed Martin’s vice president of Navigation Systems. “Our team is now focused on performing a rapid and efficient on-orbit checkout to quickly place the satellite’s advanced navigational capabilities into operational service.”Controllers will maneuver the $75 million craft into the Plane C, Slot 1 position of the constellation to take the place of GPS 2A-24. That satellite then moves into another role replacing the ailing GPS 2A-20 satellite, which was launched in May 1993 and has long outlived its seven-year design life.The orbiting network emits continuous navigation signals that allow users to find their position in latitude, longitude and altitude and determine time. Credit: Chris Miller/Spaceflight NowSEE MORE LAUNCH IMAGES The GPS 2R-18 spacecraft is the fifth in a series of eight with enhanced features designed to rejuvenate the GPS constellation.”Today’s launch moves us another step closer to modernizing the vital GPS constellation, which provides combat effects our warfighters depend on,” said Brig. Gen. Susan Helms, commander of the Cape’s 45th Space Wing.The modernized satellites transmit additional signals and feature improvements aimed at greater accuracy, tougher resistance to interference and better performance for users around the world.The new civilian signal removes navigation errors caused by the Earth’s ionosphere. The military advancements will provide an enhanced jam-resistant signal and enable more-precise targeting of GPS-guided weapons in hostile environments.”We have the most robust and capable Global Positioning System in the history of space, and we are focused on delivering world-class space-based positioning, navigation and timing capabilities for our military and civil communities. Thanks to the men and women of the 45thand 50th Space Wings, our industry partners and the Delta 2 and (GPS) 2R launch teams, the success of today’s launch was possible due to their dedication and hard work,” said Col. David Madden, commander of the Space and Missile Systems Center’s Global Positioning Systems Wing.Nine Delta rockets soared to space in 2007, all delivering their NASA, U.S. military and commercial cargos without fault. “This launch wraps up a high-tempo year of delivering space capability to our nation, including three Delta launches from Cape Canaveral in the last 64 days. It’s a great year-end exclamation point for the Launch and Range Systems Wing, the United Launch Alliance, and all of our mission teammates,” said Planeaux.The highlights from 2007:The Phoenix lander was dispatched for Mars to examine the frozen water in the northern plains that could be a habitable zone for life.NASA’s Dawn space probe powered by exotic ion engines was launched to orbit the worlds of Vesta and Ceres in the heart of the asteroid belt.Five tiny NASA satellites for the THEMIS mission were put in orbit to uncover the physics behind Earth’s auroras.Two launches of modernized replacement satellites were carried out to reinvigorate the Global Positioning System.A pair of Italian-made COSMO-SkyMed satellites that use radar to image the Earth for commercial and military uses were lofted in separate launches.The Delta 2 rocket marked its 75th consecutive successful launch with deployment of the sharp-eyed WorldView 1 Earth-imaging spacecraft.And the mammoth Delta 4-Heavy rocket entered operational service with the launch of the Air Force’s final Defense Support Program missile warning satellite.Complete coverage all nine launches, plus the missions from the past several years can be found in our .Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:THE DELTA 2 ROCKET BLASTS OFF WITH GPS 2R-18 VIDEO:MOBILE SERVICE TOWER IS ROLLED BACK FOR LAUNCH VIDEO:GPS SATELLITE ANIMATION STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

Launch highlights from first Vandenberg’s Delta 4-Heavy. Credit: ULAA new strategy, being employed to reduce the hydrogen flames generated during startup of the three Aerojet Rocketdyne RS-68 main engines, will see the triple-body rocket light one engine two seconds before the other two. Counting down to liftoff at 10:52 a.m. local (1:52 p.m. EDT; 1752 GMT), the Terminal Countdown sequencer will take control at T-minus 10 seconds and the starboard engine begins to ignite at T-minus 7 seconds. Unburned hydrogen is released through the engine and hits the burnoff sparklers beneath the rocket, creating a dramatic fireball around the vehicle’s base, something that has become a customary trademark for Delta 4 launches over the past decade.But the new staggered process is designed to lessen that pre-liftoff fire before the 23-story-tall Heavy takes to the sky. With the first engine running and working to aspirate the forthcoming hydrogen flame from the other two boosters, the center and port engines will begin their ignition process at T-minus 5 seconds and see a significant portion of the resulting fire drawn into launch table instead of rising up.Vandenberg’s previous Heavy lifts off in 2011. Credit: Pat Corkery/United Launch AllianceThe six previous launches of Delta 4-Heavy rockets — five from Cape Canaveral and one from Vandenberg — commanded all three engines to ignite simultaneously.The earlier Vandenberg launch in 2011, however, saw the ignition plume catch external insulation on fire as the vehicle lifted off and cleared to the pad. The flames extinguished a few seconds later and the mission proceeded successfully.The staggered engine sequence is meant to prevent such a reoccurrence without altering the engines’ operations during flight, providing a cleaner and less dramatic launch.The debut of this procedure on the East Coast will be made next year when a Heavy launches NASA’s Orion deep-space capsule on a three-orbit shakedown cruise around the Earth.Each engine guzzles nearly a ton of propellants per second to produce 656,000 pounds of sea-level rated thrust. The upper stage, with its Aerojet Rocketdyne RL10B-2 engine, takes over about six minutes into flight.Wednesday’s mission, flying southward from Vandenberg, will place a classified payload into polar orbit for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office, the agency responsible for operating the country’s fleet for spy satellites.The Delta 4-Heavy is America’s largest unmanned rocket currently in service, capable of lofting the biggest and heftiest cargos. The mammoth vehicle is created by taking three Common Booster Cores — the liquid hydrogen-fueled motor that forms a Delta 4-Medium’s first stage — and strapping them together to form a triple-barrel rocket, and then adding an upper stage.

Credit: Pat Corkery/United Launch Alliance”There’s nothing bigger that the United States launches — period — in any way, shape or form, and that is absolutely amazing,” said Lt. Col. Jim Bodnar, commander of the 4th Space Launch Squadron at Vandenberg.A Heavy launching from Vandenberg is capable of putting school bus-sized reconnaissance observatories into polar orbit, a performance roughly comparable to the retired space shuttles and Titan 4 rockets.The target launch date for this mission, designated NROL-65, has remained unchanged for months, staying on schedule despite sequestration and personnel furloughs.”I don’t want to jinx myself, but it has been an extremely smooth flow,” Bodnar said. “It is a testament to the work ULA does and that the 4th Space Launch Squadron oversees. I dare say this has been one of the smoothest flows that I’ve seen.”A lengthy series of readiness reviews ranging from subsystems to the payload has been underway since last week. The assessments culminate with the final launch approval to be given Tuesday, Bodnar said.”The launch business is probably one of the most risk-adverse businesses out there,” Bodnar said. “The extra time the reviews take are well worth the cost because the alternative is unthinkable.”Crews at the Space Launch Complex 6 pad, the site formerly envisioned for West Coast space shuttle missions, will retract the mobile assembly shelter to its launch position on Monday. The 9-million-pound structure provides environmentally-friendly working conditions at the pad, originally to avoid high winds during shuttle stacking operations.The 13-million-pound mobile service tower that provides all-level access to the rocket will be wheeled back Tuesday night ahead of the countdown.Clocks will start ticking at 4:52 a.m. local Wednesday, followed a short time later by fueling operations for the eight cryogenic liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen tanks aboard the vehicle.A planned built-in hold is scheduled at T-minus 4 minutes and will last for 45 minutes, leading to liftoff at 10:52 a.m. local (1:52 p.m. EDT; 1752 GMT).It will be the 364th flight of a Delta rocket, the 24th for the Delta 4 family, the NRO’s eighth use of the Delta 4 and ULA’s 74th mission, the eighth just this year.”Rarely do you see dry eyes when the rocket launches and you know that it’s successful,” Bodnar said. “The fact that we actually get to see the fruits of all of that labor is actually amazing. They’re awe-inspiring.”Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is now available in our store.

The Antares rocket lifts off from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility. Photo credit: NASA/Joel KowskyLoaded with approximately 3,300 pounds of provisions, the commercial Orbital Sciences Corp. Cygnus supply ship will complete the cargo delivery Wednesday with an automated approach to the space station.The supplies include food for the lab’s six-man crew, research experiments to learn how the human body changes in space, gear to maintain systems aboard the massive research complex, and 29 small CubeSats to be ejected from the space station’s Japanese science module.The pursuit began at 12:52 p.m. EDT (1652 GMT) with a thunderous blastoff from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility. The 13-story Antares booster disappeared into clouds moments later, but telemetry radioed back to the ground from the rocket showed it performed as designed, burning twin kerosene-fueled Aerojet Rocketdyne AJ26 engines for nearly four minutes to rocket into the upper atmosphere.The Antares rocket jettisoned its aerodynamic fairing before firing a second stage Castor 30B solid-fueled motor built by ATK to accelerate up to orbital velocity.The rocket deployed the Cygnus spacecraft into orbit about 10 minutes after liftoff as the vehicles raced across the Atlantic Ocean at more than 5 miles per second.NASA confirmed two Dutch-built solar arrays on the Cygnus spacecraft extended to begin generating electricity for the cargo ship’s mission.Controllers will oversee numerous thruster firings by the Cygnus supply ship over the next three days as the vehicle shapes its orbit to meet the International Space Station on Wednesday.High-tech GPS and laser navigation systems will guide the Cygnus on its rendezvous, which is scheduled to culminate with capture by the space station’s Canadian robotic arm at 1039 GMT (6:39 a.m. EDT).Space station commander Steve Swanson will be at the controls of the robot arm during the approach, assisted by European Space Agency flight engineer Alexander Gerst.The mission — named Orb-2 — is Orbital’s second operational resupply run to the space station. The Dulles, Va.-based aerospace contractor conducted two test flights in 2013 before launching operational cargo service on the Orb-1 mission in January. File photo of a Cygnus cargo spacecraft at the International Space Station. Photo credit: NASA”Every flight is critical,” said Frank Culbertson, executive vice president of Orbital’s advanced programs group and a former space shuttle and space station commander. “We carry a variety of types of cargo on-board, which includes food and basic supplies for the crew, and also the research.”Sunday’s launch was delayed from early May after a bottleneck in the space station’s busy manifest of visiting cargo and crew vehicles. Orbital announced further delays as engineers ensured the AJ26 powerplants on the Antares rocket were free of the defect that caused a major engine mishap on a test stand in Mississippi.Ground crews fell behind in launch preparations last week due to severe weather at the Virginia launch site, forcing another slip.”It took a lot effort for people to pull this off,” Culbertson said.Orbital has a $1.9 billion contract with NASA to cover eight logistics missions through 2016. NASA has a similar contract with SpaceX, which takes up cargo with its Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon capsule, then returns experiment samples to Earth.Both companies are contracted to haul 20 metric tons, or about 44,000 pounds, of cargo to the space station.The U.S.-owned Cygnus and Dragon resupply vehicles, along with Russia’s Progress, the European Space Agency’s Automated Transfer Vehicle and Japan’s H-2 Transfer Vehicle, make up the space station’s life line with Earth to get critical hardware, life-support commodities, and food to the complex orbiting more than 250 miles up.”They really can’t afford to get behind on any of that with six people up there, and if we’re going to keep six people on the station, we need a routine and regular delivery of cargo, and that’s what we’re trying to establish with this service,” Culbertson said before Sunday’s launch.Supplies packed inside the Cygnus spacecraft’s pressurized cargo module, built in Italy by Thales Alenia Space, include more than a half-ton of food, a pump for the Japanese laboratory, and a hardware kit to prepare for future spacewalks to install a new nitrogen and oxygen system outside the space station’s airlock.”You’ve got to resupply the crew, you’ve got to keep the research flowing up to them, and you’ve got to have reliable return of some of the research samples,” said Dan Hartman, NASA’s deputy space station program manager. “There’s a lot of system maturation that we need to do that we’re testing on the International Space Station if we’re going to go deeper and farther into the solar system.”NASA views the space station as the cornerstone of the agency’s long-term space exploration strategy. Officials say physiological research and technology demonstrations aboard the space station are critical to making human missions to an asteroid or Mars feasible.”The way to succeed and buy down on all that risk is to have all these vehicles — the Cygnus, the ATV, the HTV, the SpaceX [Dragon] — and have a consistent resupply of not only the supplies needed for the crew, but also the cutting edge technology demonstrations that we need to fly to test — and yes, fail at times and retest — just to have that big learning experience as we go forward.”The Cygnus mission is also carrying 29 CubeSats, including 28 shoe box-sized spacecraft for San Francisco-based Planet Labs Inc., which is in the middle of launching a fleet of 100 small satellites to observe the entire planet every 24 hours.The satellites are part of the Planet Labs “Dove” constellation designed to collect images of Earth from orbit.Another CubeSat built at NASA’s Ames Research Center in California will test a new de-orbit system to induce drag on small objects in space, potentially leading to technologies that could enable scientists to return samples to Earth.The Cygnus spacecraft will depart the space station around Aug. 15. Controllers will guide the cargo carrier to a destructive re-entry over the Pacific Ocean a few days later, disposing the space station’s trash and other excess hardware.”Our plan is to keep Cygnus on-board for about a month, stow it with disposable cargo, and then prepare ourselves for the next mission, which will be the ATV in late July,” Hartman said.The European ATV cargo vehicle is set for liftoff from French Guiana on an Ariane 5 rocket July 24, with docking planned Aug. 12.Follow Stephen Clark on Twitter: .John Glenn Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The historic first orbital flight by an American is marked by this commemorative patch for John Glenn and Friendship 7.Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is available in our store.

[Posted: April 10]Delta 4-Heavy investigation identifies rocket’s problemThe inaugural Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket suffered premature engine shutdowns during its December test launch because of bubbles in the liquid oxygen plumbing, investigators have concluded, and now corrective measures are being devised to prevent a repeat problem during the next launch in October. [Posted: March 16]Video coverage for subscribers only:VIDEO:SPACEFLIGHT NOW LAUNCH PAD CAMERA 1 VIDEO:SPACEFLIGHT NOW LAUNCH PAD CAMERA 2 Experts using computer simulations in Delta 4 probeWhile complex computer simulations are being run to understand what interrupted its main engines from finishing their firings, the entire six-hour maiden flight of the Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket was examined in deep detail last week as part of a planned post-mission review. [Posted: Jan. 30]Team hopes to pinpoint Delta 4 problem by mid-Feb.Engineers probing the trouble experienced on the Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket’s test flight have cleared 40 potential causes of the main engines cutting off prematurely, leaving 9 scenarios on the table, including the leading theory that bubbles formed in the liquid oxygen plumbing. [Posted: Jan. 23]Bubbles in Delta 4-Heavy’s plumbing possible culpritInvestigators are theorizing that the flow of super-cold liquid oxygen in the three core boosters of Boeing’s first Delta 4-Heavy rocket could have been disturbed, creating “bubbles” that tricked internal sensors into thinking the motors were out of fuel and causing them to command a premature engine shutdown, the Air Force said Friday. [Posted: Jan. 14]Delta 4-Heavy’s engines snuffed out by sensor glitchErrant readings from sensors inside the inaugural Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket triggered the premature shutdown of its three main engines during ascent last month, causing a massive underspeed that the vehicle’s upper stage could not overcome and resulting in a final orbit lower than planned, the U.S. Air Force said Friday. A team investigating results of the test launch are confident the problem can be resolved. [Posted: Jan. 7]Air Force says plenty of good came of Heavy testWhile stressing the positives of what was achieved during Tuesday’s demonstration flight of the Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket and the mountain of data generated about the big booster’s actions, Air Force officials on Wednesday acknowledged an “anomaly” occurred during the first stage and two university-built nanosats were lost after not reaching space.

[Posted: Nov. 19]350 launches and counting for family of Delta rockets SPACEFLIGHT NOWPosted: November 5, 2010 There was a sentimental blastoff from California on Friday night as the venerable Delta 2 made its one-and-only flight of the year, chalking up a major milestone for the rocket family’s lasting legacy while also finishing deployment of Italy’s radar satellite quartet that images the world for peace and security. Credit: Thom Baur/BoeingLaunching at 7:20 p.m. from Vandenberg Air Force Base, the space booster that has defined dependability for two decades successfully shot the COSMO-SkyMed 4 craft into orbit.It’s the last commercial mission currently booked for the Delta 2 rocket, which faces an uncertain future in the years ahead. Three launches carrying satellites for NASA will occur in 2011, but whether the program flies beyond next year depends whether five additional vehicles in inventory can be sold.”We are actively trying to market those. We have a lot of customer interest in the Delta 2,” says Hieu Lam, Friday’s mission director and Boeing Launch Services’ Delta commercial program manager.”We have five left and we’re working really hard to sell the last five. We’ll know within the next year or two how successful we’ll be in selling the last five.”Over its 148 flights since debuting in 1989, the Delta 2 has carried a wide mix of payloads and achieved a remarkable 98.6 percent success record. The past has included 57 military missions, 46 commercial satellite flights and 45 launches with NASA spacecraft.But the Air Force, which spurred the Delta 2’s creation in the late 1980s, has moved to other rockets, and the dwindling number of payloads suited for the vehicle’s capacity have combined to create this situation.”This medium market, it basically dried up in the past few years. But we see it coming back pretty strongly in 2013-2014 and beyond,” added Kris Walsh, rocket-builder United Launch Alliance’s commercial program manager.”Both commercial and government markets recognize the Delta 2 is a very reliable launch vehicles. But there are other competitors coming on the market. So we just have to be very diligent in working with our customers in trying to get them onboard and buy the last five here,” Lam said.United Launch Alliance conducted Friday’s rocket flight while Boeing managed the commercial contract for the Italian customer. ULA was formed in December 2006 to merge Boeing’s Delta and Lockheed Martin’s Atlas rocket families under one joint venture to perform U.S. government space launches. The parent companies, however, retained the ability to sell the rockets on the commercial market, such as the COSMO flights. An artist’s concept of COSMO-SkyMed. Credit: TelespazioSince COSMO 4 was the last commercial Delta contract that it held, the outlook for Boeing Launch Services depends on selling the remaining five Delta 2’s or inserting the Delta 4 vehicle back into the non-government marketplace.”Boeing Launch Services will be around in one form or another as long as Boeing has the responsibility to market the Delta launch vehicle. What it looks like will very much depend on the Delta 2 commercial sales, we have five left, and then the commercial viability of Delta 4,” Lam said.In the broader sense of history, Friday’s launch also represented the 350th flight in the Delta program’s distinguished legacy stretching back to 1960 and the earliest days of America’s efforts to reach space. Originally born from the Thor intermediate-range ballistic missile, Delta became a lifter of satellites for the nation and the world.”When you look back at the accomplishments of Delta 1, Delta 2 and now Delta 4, it’s amazing,” said Walsh.Evolutionary steps brought more power and capability as the rocket’s family grew to newer versions, ultimately creating the Delta 2 that assembled the Global Positioning System constellation, launched inspiring science projects like the Mars rovers and supported many commercial efforts. The family name lives on with Delta 4, the modular line of rockets conceived as part of the Air Force’s Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle that today carry the country’s largest and most important military satellites.”It’s special, 350 is special,” Lam said.”I started with Delta 178, so it’s been 172 Delta’s that I’ve been involved with in one way or another. I’ve been an engineer, mission manager or program manager. I’ve seen everything from the first Delta 2 to Delta 3 to Delta 4, and I’m very, very happy to have a career here with Delta.”The purpose of Friday’s launch was hauling the COSMO-SkyMed 4 satellite into its desired orbital perch, joining three sister-craft deployed by previous Delta 2 rockets in 2007 and 2008.

Credit: TelespazioIt is Italy’s home-grown Earth observing system, a constellation of radar satellites built for civil and military reconnaissance in a flagship program carrying a 1 billion euro price tag.Developed by Thales Alenia Space Italia for the Italian Space Agency and the Italian Ministry of Defence, the COSMO-SkyMed system is the country’s largest space project.Each satellite is equipped with an X-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar instrument for environmental monitoring, resource management and territorial security surveillance. They are capable of seeing the ground in daylight or darkness, with clear skies or cloudy ones.The craft can produce 450 images per day and the picture-collecting time between civil and military uses is proportional to the financial contributions made during development of the system. The Italian Space Agency funded about 70 percent and the Ministry of Defence provided about 30 percent.Imagery released for civilian purposes have a resolution of 1 meter, meaning objects as small as that size can be seen. The military capability is even sharper, though its exact resolution is classified.The satellites have proved themselves beneficial to humanitarian organizations responding to natural disasters, such as hurricanes and earthquakes.The constellation of four satellites enables any specific region of the planet to be observed by COSMO-SkyMed every six hours. That allow authorities to assess and begin responding when a crisis strikes.STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: June 29, 2004After a seven-year voyage from Earth, NASA’s $3.3 billion Cassini probe is racing toward a make-or-break rocket firing Wednesday, a 96-minute maneuver designed to put the craft in orbit around the ringed planet Saturn for a four-year scientific odyssey.Flight controllers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., sent final commands to Cassini over the weekend, setting the stage for main engine ignition at 10:35:42 p.m. Wednesday. Cassini fires its engine to enter orbit around Saturn as illustrated in this artist’s concept. Credit: NASA/JPLOperating more than 930 million miles from Earth – so far it takes radio signals an hour and 23 minutes to make a one-way trip – Cassini’s on-board computer system must carry out the all-important rocket firing on its own.At this point, flight controllers can only sit and wait. And chew their nails.”I think about the Cassini mission as having three primary segments and then two rather hair-graying events that connect those segments into one continuous mission,” said project manager Bob Mitchell. “The segments are designing and building the spacecraft, flying the spacecraft to Saturn and then conducting the science mission at Saturn.”And the hair graying events are launch and orbit insertion, which is coming up tomorrow. Now for the launch event, I think we’ve all recovered from that very nicely, primarily because it was just so outstandingly successful. … We’re about to go through our second hair-graying event.”At a news conference today, he told reporters “I think I can speak for all the team members when I say that while we’re all at least a little bit nervous, we’re also very excited. It’s an event we welcome very much and are pleased to have here.”The goal of the Cassini mission is to study Saturn’s windy atmosphere, its complex ring system, several of its icy moons and how the planet’s magnetic field interacts with the space environment. In what promises to be one of the most exciting phases of the mission, a European-built probe called Huygens will be released from Cassini on Christmas Eve for a parachute descent into the thick nitrogen atmosphere of Saturn’s moon, Titan, on Jan. 14.In all, Cassini is expected to complete 77 orbits of Saturn over the next four years, requiring 157 trajectory-nudging rocket firings. The gravity of Titan will be used for major course changes, with 45 planned flybys. Seven close flybys of smaller, icy moons also are planned.But first, Cassini must execute the Saturn Orbit Insertion maneuver, or SOI. This graphic shows the ring plane crossing and orbit insertion burn. Credit: NASA/JPLTo achieve orbit around Saturn, the 12,600-pound Cassini must reduce its velocity by about 1,400 mph using a rocket engine that only produces 100 pounds of push. As a result, the engine must fire for 96.4 minutes to put Cassini into the desired orbit.If the engine shuts down early, the computer will switch to a spare. But the end result must be roughly the same – 96 minutes of braking – or Cassini might not be able to achieve its long-awaited mission.”There are no problems, we have no indication of any problems with the spacecraft that would have any adverse effect on SOI,” Mitchell said. Added Julie Webster, lead spacecraft engineer: “This spacecraft, this whole mission has been an incredibly smooth one to fly.””This orbit insertion sequence is self contained on the spacecraft,” she said. “We loaded up the last command we’re going to send to it late Saturday night, Sunday morning, and we’ve just been clocking it out ever since and getting no indications of anything. We expect this to go very, very smoothly.”The propulsion system has worked flawlessly since Cassini’s launch aboard a Titan 4B rocket on Oct. 15, 1997. The only issue of any consequence was a leaking helium regulator that forced engineers to change the way they pressurize the system for major rocket firing.Helium is used to push propellants through Cassini’s plumbing and into the main engine’s combustion chamber at a constant pressure. The regulator controls that pressurization, which is needed for long firings like the upcoming Saturn Orbit Insertion burn.In this case, Cassini’s complexity and built-in redundancy came to the rescue. By delaying the opening of a downstream latch valve to just 70 seconds or so before main engine ignition, engineers were able to work around the regulator issue with no impact to mission operations. The procedure was used for a major 88-minute Deep Space Maneuver rocket firing back in 1998 and again in late May for a six-minute burn that set up a flyby of the moon Phoebe.”We’ve got a real nice propulsion system,” lead propulsion engineer Todd Barber said in an earlier interview. “It’s a plumber’s nightmare, there are so many valves and alternate paths and contingency paths available that basically, we’re able to handle a lot of anomalies. And the regulator leak we saw was right after launch and we’ve been able to accommodate that with the way we time the opening of valves, etc.”Even so, Barber will feel much better after Cassini successfully brakes into orbit. “It’s been a long time coming and the hopes and dreams of thousands of engineers are resting on that one evening. When we get the signal back is when we’ll all go take a deep breath. Hold your ears, because they might pop.” Cassini’s two engines are seen in this pre-launch photo. Credit: NASA/JPLCassini is equipped with two rocket engine assemblies, REA-A and REA-B. Rocket Engine Assembly B, however, is strictly a backup. It has never been fired.Mitchell said in an interview he had high confidence the SOI maneuver will work normally and that REA-B will not be needed “based on all of the testing, all the elaborate work that we have put into this, as well as our experience with the spacecraft to date. We’ve done 15 or 16 maneuvers using the main engine … and so we have every reason to believe this thing is going to work just fine.”But, he added, “the software the thing flies is all complex and I just worry about what bugs are still in there. I think it must be inevitable that there are still bugs in there for something this complex. We’ve tested it extensively, we have a test bed here in the basement of our building that is a quite high fidelity spacecraft simulator and the sequences have been run through there many, many times. We have injected faults, we’ve had various components break, where we simulated a break in the test bed and looked to see what response we got. And at the moment, everything works. All the tests that we’ve done, all the simulations indicate that everything is just fine.”The maneuver has little margin for error. Cassini first must avoid any crippling debris impacts when it crosses the ring plane between the F and G rings, moving from the lower side of the rings to the upper side as viewed from Earth.Pioneers 10 and 11, along with Voyager 2, flew through the gap with no problems but Cassini flight planners are taking no chances. Before traversing the ring plane, the spacecraft will be oriented with its high-gain dish antenna facing the direction of travel to act as a shield.Voyager 2 went through outer edge of the G ring and its instruments recorded “lots of evidence of micrometeoroid hits when going through, but nothing serious,” said Voyager veteran Torrence Johnson, a Cassini imaging team member and chief scientist for the Galileo mission.”So we have that maneuvering to do and then there’s the fact that the place is just a junky system,” he said in an interview. “We’re going in close, we’re skimming right over the rings, everybody thinks we’ve modeled all this right and we’re being reasonably cautious. But I told some of the guys early on, if they’re going to be scared of ring particles they ought to remember John Paul Jones’ letter to Congress, ‘give me a fast ship for I intend to sail in harm’s way.'”I don’t think anybody’s real complacent about this thing,” Johnson said. “I think we’ve done everything we can to make sure we don’t have any human or systems screw ups, but nature can still get you.”Jerry Jones, Cassini’s chief navigator, said flying through the ring plane relatively close to Saturn will save propellant and makes the rocket firing more efficient. “But the real clincher, given all that, is the science in that close. We’re going to be sitting there looking right down on those rings.””We’ve got one class-A camera on this spacecraft,” he said in an interview. “It’s a beautiful telescope, it has great resolution, very sharp edges and for optical navigation, I’m just pleased as punch. … The science opportunity going over the rings should be just fantastic, to say nothing of showing the public what they’ve paid for.” This graphic shows Cassini’s track as it enters orbit around Saturn. Credit: NASA/JPLOnce safely through the ring plane, Cassini will re-orient itself once again, swapping ends to put the main engine forward for the SOI burn. NASA originally planned to carry out the rocket firing “in the blind,” with Cassini focusing on science observations while the engine put on the brakes. But in the wake of back-to-back Mars mission failures in 1999, NASA management ordered engineers to figure out a way for Cassini to provide at least some information about the start of the burn, its progress and its termination.”So we went back and scrambled then,” Barber said. “We had a compromise solution. We could have pointed the high-gain antenna to Earth during the whole burn and have telemetry but there was a large delta V (fuel) penalty to do so. So the plan is to switch to a low gain antenna and that will allow us to maintain Doppler during the burn.”While no actual data will be transmitted to Earth, analysis of the Doppler shift of a carrier signal from the spacecraft will tell engineers when the burn started, the precise deceleration it produces and when it stops.”There were two key things we wanted to be sure we could differentiate between,” Mitchell said. “One was in the event we just lost it entirely and never saw it again, we wanted to be able to differentiate between whether we had a problem going through the ring plane or whether we did that successfully and had a problem during the course of the burn itself. So with the data we have, we will know that quite well.”After re-orienting itself for SOI, Cassini will begin transmitting a carrier signal. Six minutes later, the burn will begin, showing up on computer screens at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory as a change in the slope of the carrier frequency. Thirty minutes later, the signal is expected to fade out for 25 minutes or so as Cassini passes behind Saturn’s A ring as viewed from Earth.Engineers then expect six minutes of carrier through a gap in the rings known as the Cassini division before another 28-minute communications blackout while the spacecraft passes behind the broad B ring. Closest approach to Saturn – 12,400 miles from the planet’s cloud tops – is expected at 12:03 a.m. July 1, nine minutes before the SOI burn comes to an end. The first images and other data from the orbit insertion maneuver are expected around 8:39 a.m.Here is an edited timeline of critical events in the SOI maneuver for the evening of June 30 through the morning of July 1 (all times in EDT): “We turn off of Earth line shortly prior to the ring plane crossing,” Mitchell explained. “We turn to point the high-gain antenna in the direction we need to be in to shield the rest of the spacecraft and then there’s a period of about an hour where we don’t have any contact.”Then when we turn back to go to the burn attitude, at about the time we get to that attitude, which is six minutes prior to the burn start, we will crank up a signal that comes from one of the low gain antennas. There’s no telemetry, it’s just a carrier.”But that carrier will allow us to get Doppler and that’ll tell us if the spacecraft is operating fine and has not had any safing events. And then during the course of the burn, that Doppler will let us see quite accurately what the acceleration levels are. So if the system is performing nominally or over performing or under performing, the Doppler will show that very well.”The day after orbit insertion, Cassini will pass within 205,000 miles of Titan, the first official Titan encounter of the mission. Between July 4 and 11, the spacecraft will be out of contact as Saturn passes behind the sun as viewed from Earth. The SOI sequence will end on July 30 as tour sequence No. 3 begins.Sometime around Aug. 23, Cassini’s main engine is scheduled to fire in what will be the last fully helium-regulated burn of the mission: a 51-minute maneuver that will change the spacecraft’s velocity by 877 mph. The Perigee Raise Maneuver, or PRM, will raise the low point of Cassini’s orbit and set up the first close flyby of Titan in October. After another flyby in December, the Huygens probe will be released for atmospheric entry during the mission’s third Titan encounter in January.The SOI maneuver is one of only three so-called “critical sequences” built into Cassini’s mission software. A critical sequence is one that simply must execute properly to ensure mission success. The launch to Venus was one such sequence and the only other one is the Huygens data relay sequence.SOI is “the only maneuver that we will do throughout the entire course of the mission where we just absolutely have to do this burn right now,” Mitchell said at a news briefing. “If this burn doesn’t work, then we would have a Saturn flyby and that’s not what we’re here about. So we have designed what we refer to as a critical sequence where no matter what fault might occur, the spacecraft will not let the burn halt. Now in some modes it will stop the burn, swap to the other engine and then continue on with the burn. But the burn will continue even in the presence of faults.”During normal operations, a problem with a spacecraft system would trigger fault-protection software that would shut down unnecessary activity, a condition known as safe mode. There are numerous variations, depending on the nature and timing of the fault and whether the spacecraft still knows its orientation in space. The end result, however, is the same: Cassini shuts down, finds the sun (Earth will never be more than six degrees away), switches to low-data-rate communications and awaits instructions from Earth.Because of Saturn’s great distance and the slow-speed radio link used in safe mode, engineers would need at least 48 hours to restore Cassini to normal operations. Such a fault during the SOI maneuver would shut the main engine down, interrupting the all-important rocket firing and possibly dooming the mission. But in critical sequence mode, that will not be allowed to happen.”In critical mode, if the spacecraft detects a fault – we get a glint in the eye of the star scanner or the thrusters don’t like what they’re doing or a piece of hardware doesn’t work right – the spacecraft will detect a fault,” Webster said. “The sequence will halt and the spacecraft is allowed through its autonomous fault protection to go off and fix the fault.”And then it will come back and say I’ve detected a fault, I’ve fixed the fault. And then it’ll come back and say OK, critical sequence, you can restart. And the critical sequence will say Oh, but I’ve gotta remember where I was. We have what we call a mark and rollback strategy. So it’ll roll back to the last good mark point and it will resend all the commands necessary to execute the next states that it needs to be in. It’ll recommend all of those and continue on. And so, if there’s a fault anytime during the critical sequence, it’ll stop, halt, detect the fault, correct the fault and then restart the sequence.”That’s where Cassini’s second main engine comes in. If a fault of any kind interrupts the SOI sequence, the computer will fire up rocket engine assembly B and continue the burn.”In the burn, we have already disabled any fault protection activity that’s not necessary to complete the burn,” Webster said. “So we’ve got fault monitors, say, on the CDS (command and data system) computer and on the radio. Well, the radio’s not necessary to complete a burn. Neither is the CDS, ironically, because the attitude and articulation control system also has its own computer and once the CDS has told it to go do a burn, it takes over and says I don’t need you anymore, I’ll complete this burn and I’ll let you know when I’m done. So only the fault protection that’s necessary to complete the burn is active.”It would detect a fault in where it’s pointing or the propulsion system wasn’t acting right, maybe under thrusting or over thrusting. If there’s a fault during the burn, then we terminate the burn. We try to fix the fault and then we mark and roll back, pick up where we did, restart but we’re going to restart on the second engine. It takes at least two hours to cool down one engine. So 10 minutes later, we can restart on engine B and minimize our overall cost.”But any safe mode that would necessitate firing REA-B also would terminate priceless SOI science operations, a small price to pay if survival of the mission is at stake. Cassini has a seven-hour window in which to complete the SOI maneuver and “as long as we got the correct amount of burn at any time in that seven-hour period, we would get into orbit,” Webster said. “We might not like the orbit, but we’d get into orbit.”Stargaze II DVDThe Stargaze II DVD has arrived!

The ice grainsare bathed by Saturn’s radiation belt, liberating the oxygen atomsthat reflect sunlight and which makes them visible to the ultravioletspectrometer, said Esposito.A UVIS analysis of Phoebe — a tiny, dark moon aboutone-fifteenth the diameter of Earth’s moon — confirms the suspicionsof many space scientists that it was born elsewhere, likely in theKuiper Belt. The Kuiper Belt is a region beyond Neptune believed topopulated with thousands of small, icy moons created during theformation of the solar system more than four billion years ago.”UVIS sees the absorption signature of water ice on itssurface, showing Phoebe was born in the outer solar system,” Espositosaid. Exhibiting an unusual retrograde, or backward, orbit, Phoebelikely was lassoed by Saturn’s powerful gravitational field duringthe planet’s formative years, he said.Esposito presented his findings at the 36th annual Divisionof Planetary Sciences Meeting held in Louisville, Ken. Nov. 8 to Nov 12.The UVIS research team also has noted significant brighteningof the auroras at Saturn’s poles as the solar wind periodically rampsup to speeds of 250 miles, or 400 kilometers, per second, Espositosaid. “Dense puffs of the charged particles from the sun excite thehydrogen molecules in Saturn’s upper atmosphere to glow morebrightly.”In addition, UVIS continues to zero in on the fabulous ringsystem. “At the time Cassini went into orbit around Saturn, UVISproduced the highest detail images of Saturn’s rings ever made in UVlight,” he said. “These images show the amount of water-ice variesin the ring particles’ surfaces.”The variation is caused by the contamination of the ringswith meteoric dust, and by the subsequent transfer of materialbetween the ring particles from collisions and meteoroid bombardment,Esposito said.”The fluctuations we see can be explained by the recentdestruction of small moons within the rings, and by wave action inthe rings that dredges fresh material onto the surfaces of the ringparticles,” Esposito said. “This indicates that the material in therings is continually recycled from rings to moons and back.”The UVIS instrument was used to obtain the highest resolutionobservations of the ring particles ever by focusing on thefluctuations of light from a distant star as it passed behind therings, he said.The team also detected a density wave – a ripple-like featurein the rings caused by the influence of Saturn’s moons — – in theso-called Cassini Division. The Cassini Division is the gap betweenthe bright A and B rings of Saturn that are visible from Earth usingbackyard telescopes, he said. “Analysis of such waves determines thesize, mass and velocity of the ring particles,” said Esposito.The UVIS instrument also is showing a bright glow in theupper atmosphere of Titan, the most intriguing of Saturn’s 33 knownmoons and which will be targeted by the Cassini-Huygens probe slatedfor release by the spacecraft Christmas Eve. “Observations of Titanshow the glow of nitrogen atoms, molecules and ions energized byelectrons striking the upper atmosphere,” he said.Launched in 1997, the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft achievedSaturn orbit June 30. During the spacecraft’s four-year tour of theSaturn system, the UVIS team will continue to track the dynamicinteractions of the planet’s rings, moons and radiation belts,Esposito said.The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA,the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency.

The finding is suggested by new data from the Cassini spacecraft. These set of images were created during the Phoebe flyby on June 11. The images show the location and distribution of water-ice, ferric iron, carbon dioxide and an unidentified material on the tiny moon of Saturn. The first image was taken with Cassini’s narrow angle camera and is shown for comparison purposes only. The other images were taken by the visual and infrared mapping spectrometer onboard Cassini. Credit: NASA/JPL/University of ArizonaDownload larger image version Cassini scientists reviewed data from the spacecraft’s June 11, 2004, flyby of the diminutive moon. They concluded Phoebe is likely a primordial mixture of ice, rock and carbon-containing compounds similar in many ways to material seen in Pluto and Neptune’s moon Triton. Scientists believe bodies like Phoebe were plentiful in the outer reaches of the solar system about four and a half billion years ago.These icy planetesimals (small bodies) formed the building blocks of the outer solar system and some were incorporated into the giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. During this process, gravitational interactions ejected much of this material to distant orbits, joining a native population of similar bodies to form the Kuiper Belt.”Phoebe apparently stayed behind, trapped in orbit about the young Saturn, waiting eons for its secrets to be revealed during its rendezvous with the Cassini spacecraft,” said Dr. Torrence Johnson, Cassini imaging team member at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif.”All our evidence leads us to conclude, Phoebe’s surface is made of water ice, water-bearing minerals, carbon dioxide, possible clays and primitive organic chemicals in patches at different locations on the surface,” said Dr. Roger N. Clark, team member for the visual and infrared mapping spectrometer, U.S. Geological Survey in Denver. “We also see spectral signatures of materials we have not yet identified.” Cassini’s observations gave scientists the first detailed look at one of these primitive icy planetesimals.Phoebe’s mass was determined from precise tracking of the spacecraft and optical navigation, combined with an accurate volume estimate from images. The measurements yield a density of about 1.6 grams per cubic centimeter (100 pounds per cubic foot), much lighter than most rocks, but heavier than pure ice at approximately 0.93 grams per cubic centimeter (58 pounds per cubic foot). This suggests a composition of ice and rock similar to Pluto and Triton.Spectral measurements, light intensity as a function of color or wavelength, confirmed the presence of water ice previously detected by Earth-based telescopes. The measurements provided evidence for hydrated minerals on Phoebe’s surface, and detected carbon dioxide and solid hydrocarbons similar to those found in primitive meteorites.”One intriguing result is the discovery of possible chemical similarities between the materials on Phoebe and those seen on comets,” said Dr. Robert H. Brown, team leader for the visible and infrared mapping spectrometer, University of Arizona, Tucson. Evidence that Phoebe might be chemically kin to comets strengthens the case that it is similar to Kuiper Belt Objects.Measurements taken by the composite infrared spectrometer were used to generate temperature maps. The maps show the surface of Phoebe is very cold, only about 110 degrees above absolute zero (minus 163 degrees Celsius, or minus 261 degrees Fahrenheit). Even colder nighttime temperatures suggest a fluffy, porous surface layer.”One of the first results from this map is the surface of Phoebe has been badly chewed up, probably by meteorite impacts,” said Dr. John Pearl, a Cassini co-investigator for the composite infrared spectrometer, at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md. “We are discovering Phoebe is a very complex object, with large variations in topography.” This graphic illustrates that despite Phoebe’s bumpy, irregular topography, the moon has a fairly round shape. A digitally rendered shape model of Phoebe was constructed using Cassini imaging data obtained before and after the spacecraft’s close flyby of the Saturnian moon on June 11. The average diameter of Phoebe is about 133 miles. The coloring of the models corresponds to the height of Phoebe’s surface, relative to the lowest point – a range of about 10 miles – going from blue (low) to red (high). Credit: NASA/JPL/Space Science InstituteDownload larger image version Cassini also made radar observations of Phoebe’s enigmatic surface, making it the first spacecraft radar observations of an outer-planet moon. The results are consistent with the dirty, rocky, icy surface suggested by other observations.”We have conducted our first analysis of an outer solar system resident akin to Kuiper Belt Objects,” said Dr. Dennis Matson, project scientist of the Cassini-Huygens mission at JPL. “In two short weeks, we have added more to what we know about Phoebe than we had learned about it since it was discovered 100 years ago. We did this by having multiple instruments conducting investigations all at one time during our flyby.”The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: January 9, 2014 Delayed one day by cold weather and another day by concern about space radiation, an Orbital Sciences Corp. Antares rocket carrying a commercially developed cargo ship blasted off Thursday and climbed into orbit, kicking off the company’s first operational flight to deliver supplies and equipment to the International Space Station. Credit: Stephen Clark/Spaceflight NowFilling the void left by the space shuttle’s retirement in 2011, the flight was the first of seven commercial resupply missions planned for 2014, three by Orbital’s Antares/Cygnus vehicle and four by SpaceX Falcon 9 rockets and Dragon cargo craft.”We’re posturing ourselves to hit our stride with all of our new commercial cargo vehicles in the 2014 time period,” said Dan Hartman, NASA’s deputy space station program manager at the Johnson Space Center in Houston.”Orb-1 will be the first, we’ll get into some SpaceX, and basically kind of alternate back and forth between Orbital and SpaceX throughout the year. So we’re really looking to hit our stride in 2014 to meet our (resupply) needs.”The two-stage 130-foot-tall Antares rocket, equipped with modified first-stage engines left over from the Soviet moon program, roared to life at 1:07:05 p.m. EST (GMT-5) and quickly lifted off from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport, climbing away atop a torrent of fiery exhaust as Earth’s rotation carried the pad into the plane of the space station’s orbit.Accelerating smoothly as it consumed its first stage load of liquid oxygen and RP-1 kerosene rocket fuel, the Antares tilted over and streaked away through a clear blue sky above the Atlantic Ocean along a southeasterly trajectory.Ten minutes later, the Cygnus cargo ship was released from the Antares second stage into an initial orbit with a high point of around 185 miles and a low point of about 130 miles. A few moments after that, the spacecraft’s two solar arrays began unfolding as planned.If all goes well, Cygnus will approach the lab complex from behind and below, pulling up to within about 30 feet early Sunday as the two spacecraft sail 260 miles above southern Saskatchewan. Astronaut Mike Hopkins, operating the station’s robot arm, plans to lock onto a grapple fixture around 6:02 a.m. and pull the ship in for berthing at the Earth-facing port of the forward Harmony module.The solar-powered cargo craft is packed with 3,220 pounds of research equipment, spare parts and crew supplies, including 23 experiments involving more than 8,600 elementary, junior high and high school students in the United States and Canada. The experiments “address life sciences topics ranging from vaccine effectiveness and amoeba reproduction to calcium loss in bones and liquid behavior in space,” Orbital said in a news release.Other experiments include an “ants in space” payload to study behavioral differences between ants in normal gravity and those in the weightless environment of space; an investigation to study how materials burn in space; and a project called “Story Time in Space” that will feature crew members videotaping themselves reading children’s books and demonstrating various science and technology concepts.Also on board: 33 small “cubesat” satellites, fresh food and a few holiday gifts for the station’s six-man crew.Launch originally was planned for mid-December, but NASA ordered a delay when trouble with a coolant pump module aboard the station prompted managers to order a pair of spacewalks to install a spare.The repair work was successful, and after waiting for the station’s orbit to carry the lab back into a period of more moderate solar heating, NASA gave Orbital Sciences permission to proceed with the Orb-1 launch Wednesday.But concern about space radiation in the wake of a major solar flare earlier this week prompted Orbital managers to order a delay pending additional analysis to make sure high-energy particles blasted away from the sun would not cause problems for the rocket’s sensitive avoionics systems.Late Wednesday, mission managers concluded the rocket could safely fly and engineers prepared the rocket for launch Thursday.”This will be the first of three contracted cargo delivery missions for us this year,” Frank Culbertson, a former space shuttle commander and executive vice president of Orbital Sciences, said earlier this week. “We plan to also launch one in May and another in October if the schedule holds. At the end of the year, we will have delivered approximately 5,500 kilograms (12,125 pounds) of cargo to the space station commercially.”Following the Bush administration’s 2004 decision to retire the space shuttle, NASA kicked off a program to develop commercially operated unmanned cargo ships to replace the lost payload capability of the manned orbiter.Orbital eventually won a $1.9 billion contract to launch at least eight station resupply flights to deliver about 40,000 pounds of cargo and supplies. SpaceX holds a $1.6 billion contract for 12 flights to deliver more than 44,000 pounds of equipment. Two of those missions have been completed and a third is on tap in late February.Both companies held separate contracts to help pay for initial development and test flights.Orbital developed the Antares rocket and launched a Cygnus test flight last September. While the first Cygnus completed a successful rendezvous with the space station, it only carried a limited number of low-priority items. This time around, there were no restrictions and the spacecraft was packed to near capacity.”If there was a critical need, we put it on there,” Hartman said.Orbital’s Antares mission follows a successful flight Monday by an upgraded version of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket launched from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. It was the California company’s second flight in a row using a Falcon 9 variant to launch a commercial communications satellite.While SpaceX could be viewed as a major competitor, Culbertson offered his congratulations and pointed out that the Falcon 9 rocket launched Monday carried a satellite built by Orbital Sciences.”All of us at Orbital believe in developing the capability to fly payloads, spacecraft and rockets into space on a commercial basis,” Culbertson said. “We support government customers, private customers and now we’re supporting the International Space Station and its research. We intend to continue growing that business as do other companies.”A thriving commercial launch industry will support scientific research by making it “more readily accessible to people on Earth because they can participate in what’s going on in space,” he said.”It also means the space station will continue to grow in relevance and productivity, which will allow us to have a future for human spaceflight in this country and a future for our children to go into space to explore. If we keep the space station going, we will have that future. So it’s important that we do that.”Like SpaceX, Orbital is working on upgrades that will enable the Antares rocket to carry heavier payloads. And like SpaceX, Orbital hopes to sell its booster to a variety of customers.”By the fourth (station resupply) mission we’ll have an upgraded version that will fly more payload,” Culbertson said. “We’re also looking long range at what the configuration of the Antares will be, both from an engine standpoint and from an upper stage standpoint.”So we’ve got plans in work … and we are negotiating with people for other payloads besides the Cygnus spacecraft and intend to fly more than just cargo out of Wallops here. So we do have big plans.”John Glenn Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The historic first orbital flight by an American is marked by this commemorative patch for John Glenn and Friendship 7.Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is available in our store.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: January 14, 2005Initial pictures of Saturn’s moon Titan snapped by Europe’s Huygens probe during its historic atmospheric descent and touchdown today show an active world likely carved by the flow of cryogenic liquids that may still pool on its frigid surface, a leading planetary scientist says. This raw image was returned by the Descent Imager/Spectral Radiometer camera onboard the European Space Agency’s Huygens probe after the probe descended through the atmosphere of Titan. It shows the surface of Titan with ice blocks strewn around. The size and distance of the blocks will be determined when the image is properly processed. Credit: ESA/NASA/University of ArizonaLarger than Pluto and Mercury, Titan is the only moon in the solar system with a thick atmosphere and researchers expected Huygens to find a truly alien landscape under the smoggy haze. They got what they wanted.”Surprises are always the things that get you,” said Torrence Johnson, a member of NASA’s Cassini imaging team at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. “We’d hoped for a strange surface, it’s always nice to see something like a science fiction movie or whatever, but this is exceeding our expectations.”I mean, this is not a landscape filled with impact craters and a few ridges and hills. It’s an active, living place that’s interacting with its atmosphere just like Earth and ancient Mars did. And yet it’s doing this in a completely different environment, where it’s not water and rain from clouds of water that are doing things. You’re dealing with what we would regard as cryogenic things here on the Earth, cold liquid gases, basically, and yet it’s producing a place that looks strangely familiar.”The European Space Agency released three images from Huygens’ camera late today, showing the looming surface from 10 miles up, from five miles and finally, from the surface itself. The first image shows what appear to be erosion-carved gullies snaking down through light-shaded terrain to what looks like a long shoreline bordering a dark, featureless plain. Or lake.Scientists speculated for years that ethane and methane should exist in liquid form on Titan’s surface because of the nature of its nitrogen-dominated atmosphere, low temperatures and other factors. But recent ground-based observations seemed to rule out the possibility of global oceans. Initial data from the Cassini orbiter that carried Huygens to Titan found no definitive evidence of smaller bodies of liquids.But the Huygens photo indicates liquids almost certainly flowed in the past, if not the present. They also show light-shaded areas seen in Cassini orbiter photos likely are slightly elevated and that darker areas are relatively flat, lower-lying features. The latter are candidates for past or present lakes or flood plains. This is one of the first raw images returned by the ESA Huygens probe during its successful descent. It was taken from an altitude of 16.2 kilometres with a resolution of approximately 40 metres per pixel. It apparently shows short, stubby drainage channels leading to a shoreline. Credit: ESA/NASA TV”This picture, many people have told me, that looks something like the Earth, sort of like Mars,” Johnson said. “The reason it has that impression to you is that is an eroded surface, you see things that look like channels and so forth. When you look at the moon, when you look at the uplands of Mars, you don’t see that, you see barren landscapes with impact craters on them. So this is telling us for sure, this is an active area.”It also implies very strongly that the light area is, in fact, slightly elevated because you don’t have stream channels that run up hill. They all run downhill, and it looks like a lot of that darker area is, in fact, smooth, dark area. Now, we don’t know whether that’s liquid now, but it certainly looks like liquid and in this case, water is not what we’re talking about. On Mars, when you’re talking liquid and liquid erosion, you’re talking water. On Titan, what you’re talking about with the temperatures at Titan’s surface, less than 300 degrees below zero Fahrenheit, the only thing that’s liquid is natural gas. And that’s coming out of the atmosphere, liquid ethane and methane.”So these channels have probably been cut in slightly elevated ice, which is playing the role of rock, and then producing tarry substances that run down hill and make these smooth areas,” Johnson said. “How long ago that occurred, whether there’s still liquid in some of those areas, we don’t know. But a picture like that can really start unlocking some of the mysteries we’ve been debating about looking at the data from the orbiter. And in turn, that means we can take the orbiter data and get a much better global perspective about what’s going on on Titan.” An artist’s concept shows Huygens parachuting to Titan after deployment from the Cassini orbiter. Credit: EADS AstriumThe picture Huygens snapped on the surface of Titan showed what looks like rocks strewn over a plain stretching away to a hazy horizon. The scene looked remarkably similar to pictures taken by the Mars rover, Spirit, in Gusev Crater. But Huygens didn’t spot silicon-based rocks like those on Earth.”It’s probably ice, water ice,” Johnson said. “Water ice is a really good rock at the temperatures at Titan’s surface. Again, to a geologist, that shouts erosion and you see the blocks are rounded like rocks in the bottom of a stream bed on Earth.”While no liquids are visible in the picture, “I think most of my geological colleagues would agree that what’s happened here, we’re probably looking at an area that’s flowed out from someplace that has been eroded by these ethane, methane liquids, it carried ice boulders of water ice with them, rounded them in the process and left them in sort of an outwash plain.”Johnson said the data seen today represents “the tip of the iceberg.””These are just a few snippets out of the data set from the images alone,” he said. “We also have a vast array of chemical data about the atmosphere. … In the next few days, we’ll start getting detailed read outs about what’s in the atmosphere, what’s raining down on the surface and what that surface looks like in great detail.”Stay tuned!Video coverage for subscribers only:VIDEO:THE FIRST PICTURE FROM HUYGENS IS REVEALED VIDEO:HUYGENS POST-LANDING NEWS BRIEFING VIDEO:STATUS REPORT DURING DESCENT AUDIO:TODAY’S STATUS REPORT DURING DESCENT VIDEO:HUYGENS PRE-ARRIVAL NEWS BRIEFING AUDIO:HUYGENS PRE-ARRIVAL NEWS BRIEFING VIDEO:OVERVIEW OF HUYGENS PROBE’S SCIENCE OBJECTIVES VIDEO:JULY NEWS BRIEFING ON CASSINI’S PICTURES OF TITAN VIDEO:PICTURES SHOWING TITAN SURFACE FROM OCT.

Afternearly seven years, we finally got there! This marks the beginning of thescientific investigation for the people who will study the planet’smagnetosphere.”Bill Kurth, Cassini team member and UI senior research scientist, comparedthe bow shock to a sonic boom.”The bow shock is similar to a jet aircraft sonic boom that forms across thefront of the plane. The charged particles flowing from the sun, called thesolar wind, pass Saturn and the other planets at a speed of about onemillion miles an hour. We can compare the position of the bow shock with thepressure of the solar wind to learn something about the size of Saturn’smagnetosphere and how much its size is controlled by the solar wind,” hesays.The June 27 Cassini bow shock crossing occurred at a distance of 49.2 Saturnradii (2.97 million kilometers or 1.84 million miles) from Saturn and standsin contrast to first encounters by previous spacecraft, all of which tookplace much closer to the planet. The Pioneer spacecraft first crossedSaturn’s bow shock at 23.7 Saturn radii, while Voyager 1 and Voyager 2recorded crossings at 26.2 and 31.9 Saturn radii, respectively. Gurnett saysthe difference between Cassini and the other spacecraft is probably due todifferent flight trajectories.”Cassini has encountered the bow shock quite a bit further out because thespacecraft is coming in from the side of the planet. So our approach angleis different from those of the other craft, primarily because Cassini isgoing to be placed into orbit about Saturn, while the other spacecraft madefly-bys,” he says.The radio sounds of Saturn and other sounds of space can be heard byvisiting Gurnett’s Web site at: Cassini, carrying 12 scientific instruments, is on its way to the June 30,2004 planetary rendezvous, when it will become the first spacecraft to orbitSaturn and begin a four-year study of the planet, its rings and its 31 knownmoons.

Posted: April 12, 2004In Einstein’s theory of general relativity, space is transformedfrom the Newtonian idea of a vast emptiness with nothing but theforce of gravity to rule the motion of matter through the universe,to an invisible fabric of spacetime, which “grips” matter and directsits course.Two Observations, One Revolution (From Gravity toSpacetime)Newton’s theory of gravity (1687) is as familiar to us as walkingdown a hill. As we put one foot in front of the other, the invisibleforce of gravity reaches out from the Earth and pulls each foot downto the ground. We feel the pull of the force and let our foot fall tothe ground and we continue down the hill on our merry way. The sameinvisible force that keeps us Earth-bound keeps the planets in orbitaround the Sun. According to Newton, the Sun’s gravity reaches outacross empty space and constantly pulls the planets toward it,preventing them from zooming out of our solar system.This theory remained the strongest explanation for the planetaryorbits and the apparent “falling” motion of objects on Earth forseveral centuries. It was not until the early 20th century whenEinstein began working on his theories of relativity that Newton’stheory of gravity was seriously challenged.In 1905 and 1906 Einstein laid out his theory of specialrelativity in a collection of papers. Central to this theory was hisclaim that the speed of light in a vacuum (299,792 km/sec) was thespeed limit of all matter and energy in the universe. While matterand energy could travel at speeds approaching or equaling the speedof light, they could never surpass it.With this principle in hand, Einstein turned his attention toNewton’s theory of gravity. He focused on two observations thatchallenged Newton’s theory. The first related to the speed limit oflight, and its implications for the speed limit of the force ofgravity. The second related to the Equivalence Principle.Observation #1 – Instant PropagationProblemNewton stated that the attractive force of gravity emanated from allmatter, but he did not explain how it physically transmitted from onemass to another, nor how long this transmission took to occur. Hesimply inferred that the force of gravity traveled instantly acrossempty space, propagating from one mass to another.However, Einstein, along with other scientists, began to questionthis conclusion around the turn of the 20th century. In the 19thcentury, Maxwell had shown that light and energy, includingelectricity and magnetism, propagated at the same finite rate in avacuum – 299,792 km/sec. Einstein’s theory of special relativityconcluded that this rate was the speed limit for all energy in theuniverse. If gravity was a force that transmitted between masses inthe same way light propagated through space, the force of gravityshould be equally restricted to 299,792 km/sec. While crossingnearly three hundred thousand kilometers each second is extremelyfast, it is not instantaneous.Just look at the Sun’s light crossing our solar system. Light, inthe form of photons, flies out of the Sun at the speed of lighttoward the inner and outer planets. These photons cross enormousdistances very rapidly. But even at this rate, minutes and evenhours pass before they reach the planets (~8.3 minutes to Earth; ~5.5hours to Pluto).If the force of gravity could travel no faster than the speed oflight, then gravity was certainly not traveling instantaneouslyacross space. If the force of the Sun’s gravity did not transmitinstantly, but instead took a definite amount of time to reach theplanets, then something was wrong with the actual orbits of theplanets. Instead of following their observed orbits, the paths ofthe planets should be slightly different.Was Newton’s theory wrong, even though it mathematically agreedwith the actual orbits of the planets? Or was Einstein’s conclusionmistaken, meaning that gravity was not like other forces and actuallycould transmit instantly?Einstein believed that he was not mistaken. Even though Newton’stheory explained the planets’ orbits to a great extent, it did nottell the whole story. Over the next ten years, Einstein worked tofind the answer to the instant propagation problem.Observation #2 – The EquivalencePrincipleA second problem that Einstein encountered was related to theEquivalence Principle. This principle asserts that the motion ofobjects in the presence of a gravitational field is equivalent to themotion of objects in an accelerating frame of reference. If you dropa hammer on Earth, it falls to the ground at exactly the same rate aswhen you drop the hammer in an accelerating spaceship.Let’s break this down a bit. In a spaceship accelerating upwardsat 9.8 m/s2, any object will fall to the floor at 9.8 m/s2. OnEarth, any object you drop will accelerate to the ground at 9.8 m/s2.Since this is true, it raises the question of why things fall at allon Earth. If the objects are simply accelerating down, instead of”falling,” could it be that the ground is actually acceleratingupwards?The mere possibility that this could be true was a problem forEinstein. If all motion appeared the same in both frames ofreference (the ground and the spaceship) then gravity could not beresponsible for both motions. An observer could not tell thedifference between gravity and an accelerating frame of reference, sothe force of gravity could not be a conclusive explanation for thefalling motion of objects in the universe. What exactly was it thatcaused objects to accelerate towards the ground on Earth?A New Understanding: CurvedSpacetimeIn 1916, Einstein addressed these two matters (the instantpropagation problem and the equivalence of gravity and anaccelerating frame of reference) by reconstructing the theory ofgravity. Einstein presented the world with a new understanding ofhow the universe worked – his theory of general relativity. In thistheory, space is not an empty void, but an invisible structure calledspacetime. Nor is space simply a three-dimensional grid through whichmatter, light, and energy move. It is a structure whose shape iscurved and twisted by the presence and motion of matter and energy.Around any mass (or energy), spacetime is curved. The presence ofplanets, stars and galaxies deform the fabric of spacetime like abowling ball deforms a bedsheet. (Spacetime deforms in fourdimensions, so the two-dimensional bedsheet is a limited model. Tryvisualizing these depressions on all sides of a planet to build amore accurate image of this concept.)When a smaller mass passes near a larger mass, it curves towardthe larger mass because spacetime itself is curved toward the largermass. The smaller mass is not “attracted” to the larger mass by anyforce. The smaller mass simply follows the curve of spacetime nearthe larger mass. For example, the massive Sun curves spacetime aroundit, a curvature that reaches out to the edges of the solar system andbeyond. The planets orbiting the Sun are not being pulled by the Sun;they are following the curved spacetime deformed by the Sun.The Second Implication:Frame-DraggingTwo years after Einstein submitted his theory of curved spacetime,Austrian physi-cists Joseph Lense and Hans Thirring predicted that amass could deform spacetime in a second way – through frame-dragging(1918). They proposed that the rotation of planets and stars or anyrotating mass twists the structure of spacetime near that mass. Notonly is local spacetime curved near the Sun, it is twisted by theSun’s rotation. Lense and Thirring predicted this effect to beextremely small, and would become smaller farther from the rotatingmass, but it would occur around every rotating mass, be it a planet,a star, a galaxy, or a person.Einstein May Be Right, But Newton’s Theory isStill UsefulFrom this description of the differences found in Newton’s theoryof gravity and Einstein’s resolution of them, one may get theimpression that Einstein’s theory of general relativity completelyreplaces Newton’s theory of gravity. Now that we are in possession ofEinstein’s concept of spacetime, should we toss “the force ofgravity” out of our physics conversations? No. We need to retain bothEinstein’s theory of curved spacetime and Newton’s theory of gravityin order to understand our universe.Einstein’s theory does provide us with a more accurateunderstanding of the underlying structure of the universe. However,unless one observes phenomena moving near or at the speed of light(e.g., starlight, radio waves, quasar jets) or near enormous masses(e.g., neutron stars, galaxies, black holes), the actual effects ofcurved spacetime and frame-dragging are barely distinguishable fromthose predicted by Newton’s theory of gravity. In our common physicalexperience on Earth, where the fastest phenomena rarely reach 0.0001%of the speed of light, Newton’s theory of gravity suffices. Itsmathematics are much, much simpler than the mathematics of motion incurved spacetime, and it provides a functional picture of ourphysical world.Previous Tests of General RelativityEinstein was well aware that scientists would want empirical proofif they were to accept his theory of curved spacetime. He offeredthree specific phenomena that curved spacetime could explain -starlight deflection, the error in Newton’s description of Mercury’sorbital precession, and the gravitational redshift. Over the pastcentury, scientists have closely observed these phenomena, inaddition to examining a fourth phenomenon known as the Shapirotime-delay.Starlight DeflectionThe central premise of Einstein’s general theory of relativity isthat all matter and energy moving through the universe are affectedby curved spacetime. This includes the path of light rays as theyemerge from distant stars and make their way across the universe toour Earth-based telescopes and eyes. When their light passes near amassive body, such as a galaxy or our Sun, its path is deflectedslightly.In 1919, merely three years after Einstein published his theory,Frank Dyson (Great Britain’s Astronomer Royal at that time), CharlesDavidson, and Arthur Eddington took on the challenge of observing andmeasuring this phenomenon. They compared photographs of a selectedarea of the night sky with photographs taken of the same area duringa solar eclipse. Looking at these photographs, it became apparentthat stars that should have been behind the Sun were actually visibleduring the eclipse. Their light was bending through curved spacetimearound the Sun’s mass. The result was limited by the short amount oftime available to make the measurement during an eclipse (about fourminutes), but it confirmed Einstein’s prediction to within about 20%.In 1920, Arthur Eddington wrote a book entitled: “Space, Time, andGravitation,” which described this phenomenon. Since then, theresults have been reproduced to higher and higher precision, as thetechnology for observing stars has improved.Between 1969 and 1975, twelve measurements were made using radiotelescopes to measure the deflection of radio waves from a distantquasar around a galaxy. These measurements matched generalrelativity’s predictions to within 1%, and now the results are goodto about 0.1%.Mercury’s Perihelion PrecessionAs Mercury orbits the Sun, it does not follow the exact sameelliptical path each year. As it goes around, Mercury’s orbit slowlyturns, or precesses, in the direction of its revolution around theSun. Its perihelion point (the point of orbit closest to the Sun)shifts slightly each time around. Astronomers have observed thatover every one hundred years Mercury’s orbit has precessed another574 arcseconds around (0.16?).Newton’s theory of gravity largely accounted for this phenomenonand explained that it is caused by the gravitational perturbations ofthe other planets. But it did not completely account for what isobserved. Each century, Mercury’s orbit precesses a little fartherthan Newton’s equations predicted – 43 arcseconds more, to be precise.When Einstein’s equations were applied to the orbit of Mercury, itwas a precise success. Einstein’s calculations predicted thatMercury’s orbit would precess 43 arcseconds/year more than Newton’sequations predicted. This matched the astronomers’ observationsexactly. The additional 43 arcseconds were a natural effect ofMercury’s motion through the spacetime curved by the Sun.Gravitational RedshiftAnother phenomenon predicted by Einstein’s general theory ofrelativity is that light loses energy as it emerges from agravitational field. When light loses energy, its wavelength becomeslonger and the color of the light shifts toward the red end of thespectrum (thus called the “redshift”).Two key tests of the gravitational redshift are the Pound-RebkaExperiment and NASA’s Gravity Probe A. In 1960, physicists RobertPound and Glen Rebka were able to detect the redshift of high-energygamma rays in an elevator shaft at Harvard University. They sentgamma rays up from the bottom of the shaft to a sensor 74 feet high.As the gamma rays climbed the 74 feet out of Earth’s gravitationalfield, they lost a minuscule amount of energy (~ 2 parts in atrillion), which Pound and Rebka were able to detect. Theirmeasurement agreed with Einstein’s predictions to within 10%, laterimproved to about 2%.A more precise test of the redshift was conducted by Gravity ProbeA in 1976, a rocket-based experiment, also known as the Vessot-Levinetest. In this experiment, a hydrogen-maser clock was launched to analtitude of 6,000 miles. The frequency of the clock in flight wascompared to the frequency of a matching clock on the ground. Theexperiment revealed that the frequencies of the clocks differedslightly, matching Einstein’s predictions to within 70 parts permillion.Shapiro Time-DelayIn 1964, Irwin Shapiro, an astrophysicist at Harvard University,identified another phenomenon that Einstein’s curved spacetime shouldcause: the apparent reduction of the speed of light (orelectromagnetic waves) when it passes through a gravitational field.Since 1964, a systematic program has been in place to test thepresence of this phenomenon to a greater and greater precision.Scientists have used radio telescopes to perform “radar ranging” onvarious objects whose distance is precisely known. They began bybouncing signals off of Mercury and Venus.When the line of sight between the Earth and Mercury was far fromthe Sun, the travel time of the signal was barely delayed, if at all.But as the line of sight neared the Sun, the delay increased.Scientists predicted that, according to Einstein’s equations, thesignal would be delayed by 200 microseconds if it traveled right nextto the Sun. When performing the experiment, the result matched thisprediction.In addition to bouncing signals off of Mercury, astronomers havebounced signals off of Venus and off the Mariner 6 and Mariner 7spacecrafts as they orbited Mars. In one of the most precisemeasurements of this time-delay effect, scientists used a transponderleft on the surface of Mars by one of NASA’s Viking landers. Thisexperiment confirmed Einstein’s prediction to within 0.1%.Most recently, in June, 2002, Italian physicists B. Bertotti, L.Iess, and P. Tortora bounced radio waves, as they passed near theSun, off the Cassini spacecraft – a joint NASA and Italian SpaceAgency satellite and probe en route to a rendezvous with Saturn inJuly, 2004. Their observations confirmed Einstein’s prediction towithin 20 parts per million.Why Perform Another Test of GeneralRelativity?We wonder about the stars, about our universe, and about howthings work – wonder is an important part of human life. Gravity isthe most fundamental force in nature; it affects all of us all thetime. But even though we’ve placed men on the Moon, gravity is stillan enigma – we still don’t completely understand it. Einstein’s 1916general theory of relativity forever changed our notions of space andtime, and it gave us a new way to think about gravity.But, although general relativity has become a cornerstone ofmodern physics, it remains one of the least tested theories inphysics. The frame-dragging effect has never been directlyexperimentally verified, and none of the previous tests of thegeodetic effect come close to the precision that will be achieved bythe gyroscopes and SQUID readouts of Gravity Probe B. If we are tocontinue to advance our knowledge of fundamental laws of nature andthe universe, we must experimentally test and verify the predictionsof our theories.Gravity Probe B is one of the most sophisticated physicsexperiments ever attempted. Over 40 years in development, it hasrequired the efforts of dozens of scientists and engineers atStanford University, Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company, NASA’sMarshall Space Flight Center and the Harvard-Smithsonian Center forAstrophysics, along with many others. It has spawned numerousadvances in navigation technology and materials precision. Mostimportantly, it will provide us a glimpse into the sublime structureof our universe.Will Gravity Probe B Verify or RefuteEinstein?Will the results of Gravity Probe B verify Einstein’s theory ofcurved spacetime and frame-dragging, or will Einstein’s theory berefuted? If the former proves true, then we will have made the mostprecise measurement of the shape of local spacetime and confirmed themathematics of general relativity to a new standard of precision. Ifthe latter proves true, then we may be faced with the challenge ofconstructing a new theory of the universe’s structure and the motionof matter.Will Gravity Probe B Reveal Where “Inertia” ComesFrom?One of the fundamental concepts of our physical world is that allobjects at rest or in motion have inertia, or a tendency to keepdoing whatever they are doing. But where does this tendency orproperty come from? Does is come from within matter itself? Or isit related to the underlying universe?In the late 1800’s, Austrian physicist Ernst Mach proposed thatthe property of inertia comes from the motion of matter in thedistant universe. The reason an object resists changes in motion isbecause it is somehow connected to the motion of all the other matterin the universe. It is a gravitational interaction that creates theproperty of inertia.Gravity Probe B’s investigation of frame-dragging will contributeto this question, because for distant matter to affect local matter,there has to be a gravitational link between the two. Einstein’stheory of the geometry of spacetime and the effects of frame-draggingcould explain this link.Mars rover collectible patchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!This commemorative patch celebrates NASA’s Curiosity rover mission of the Mars Science Laboratory in search of clues whether the Red Planet was once hospitable to life.Columbia ReportA reproduction of the official accident investigation report into the loss of the space shuttle Columbia and its crew of seven.

kerana bersubahat juga merupakan satu dosa, kau berada dalam senarai ‘top five’ dalam tingkatan kita.Balas Izzat.Ujar Feera. “Ini surat untuk kamu.Semuanya bermula dengan cinta.Jangan sesekali masuk ke dalam biliknya itu tanpa pengetahuan dan kebenaran dari Lina.”Soal Zaid yang pelik melihat rambut Adi Azri yang sudah terlihat kusut. Aku.’ Belum sempat Qis meneruskan kata-katanya Adam berpaling dan berlalu meninggalkan Qis keseorangan Air mata Qis mengalir lagi Kini semangatnya sudah tiada dia sudah tidak kuat untuk berhadapan dengan masalah itu Akhirnya Qis dengan longlainya melangkah dan terus melangkah Daun-daun kering berguguran setelah ditiup angin kencang dibiarkannya Pannnnnggggg Satu dentuman kuat kedengaran di jalanan Adam berpaling tubuhnya mula menggigil dan menggeletar ketakutan apabila sebuah kenderaan melanggar seorang wanita yang cukup dia kenali Adam dengan sekuat hatinya berlari mendapatkan Qis yang terdampar di atas jalan raya dengan darah berlumuran di kepalanya Tudungnya berubah kemerah-merahan darah Adam panik Dia mula menjerit meminta tolong Sejurus kemudian Qis dirawat di bilik pembedahan Adam yang masih dalam keadaan terkejut tidak mampu untuk bersuara apabila ibu Qis mengajukan soalan kepadanya Dalam fikirannya dia bersalah ‘Ya Aku bersalah ‘Ayah Adam yang bersalah Adam marah Qis tinggikan suara pada Qis Adam tinggalkan dia seorang…’ rintih Adam yang kini terduduk di pangkuan ayahnya ‘Adam Adam tidak bersalah jangan salahkan diri nak kita sama-sama doakan keselamatan Qis’ kata Cikgu Iskandar Bertambah runtun hatinya melihat anak bongsunya yang kelihatan amat lemah bagai ada satu beban yang berat dibahunya Tidak lama kemudian… ‘ Doktor bagaimana keadaan anak saya Tanya ayah Qis dengan penuh harapan agar semuanya selamat sahaja ‘Jangan risau anak encik sekarang telah melepasi tahap kritikal tapi mungkin agak berat untuk encik terima satu hal ini Qis anak encik buta Hentakkan yang kuat pada kepalanya telah menyebabkan penglihatannya terjejas Saya minta maaf harap encik dan keluarga bersabar’ Kata doktor tenang Di belakang Adam jatuh tersungkur menyembah bumi Perasaan bersalahnya semakin bertambah terhadap sahabat baiknya Adam mula teringat akan kenangan mereka ketika masih kecil Memori itu satu-persatu menerpa ingatannya Qis kini buta Buta disebabkan oleh dirinya sendiri Adam lemah Hatinya hancur luluh bak kaca yang terhempas di lantai Qis boleh melihat semula tetapi dia memerlukan penderma mata dengan demikian semuanya akan menjadi sedia kala Mulai pada saat Qis tidak mampu lagi melihat keindahan dunia Adam tidak pernah berenggang dengannya Sebaliknya Adam berusaha membantu Qis belajar untuk menghadapi peperiksaan SPM Qis yang kini telah ditempatkan di sekolah khas yang mempunyai keistimewaan yang sama sepertinya Walaupun Qis terpaksa menempuhi dunia barunya namun ketabahan hatinya yang kuat telah membantu Qis lebih bersemangat untuk meneruskan perjuangan hidupnya Tambahan pula sahabat baiknya Adam dan keluarganya yang banyak memberi dorongan dan kekuatan untuk terus menghadapi dugaan hidup Meskipun hakikatnya teramat sukar untuk Qis menerima kenyataan bahawa dia kini bukan lagi seperti dulu kini dia tidak mampu melihat duniawi yang ada hanya kegelapan cuma Beberapa bulan kemudian Qis dan Adam akhirnya ternyata tidak mengecewakan kedua ibu bapa mereka Mereka sama-sama mendapat keputusan yang sangat cemerlang dalam peperiksaan SPM iaitu masing-masing mendapat 10 A1 Terbuktilah kecacatan yang dialami oleh Qis itu tidak menjadi batu penghalang untuk dia menempah kejayaan dalam pendidikan Sebaliknya Qis kini menjadi matang dan tabah dalam mengharungi kehidupannya ‘Qis Berita baik Qis Kau telah mendapat penderma mata yang sesuai dengan kau Kau akan melihat semula sahabatku Kau akan melihat semua keindahan ciptaan Tuhan’ Kata Adam yang riang gembira bagaikan tak terkata Wajahnya yang kelihatan berseri-seri itu menandakan keriangan yang benar-benar dirasai Doanya kini termakbul ‘Adam kau tidak perlu bagi aku harapan sebegitu Aku tahu kau sedih aku hidup dalam keadaan begini tapi kini aku sudah tidak kisah aku biasa hidup begini’ Bibirnya mengukirkan senyuman Qis tidak mempercayai apa yang dikatakan oleh Adam Qis tidak mahu kecewa dia tidak mahu menaruh apa-apa harapan lagi Dia akur dengan ketentuan Tuhan Jauh di sudut hatinya Qis pasti ada hikmahnya disebalik semua ini Namun perasaan ketidakpercayaan Qis cuma bersifat sementara apabila ayahnya sendiri juga mengatakan hal yang sama Qis kini berada di dalam bilik pembedahan dan dia kini sedang bertarung dengan kematian untuk terus hidup Satu jam dua jam empat jam… Adam mula tidak senang duduk dia membiarkan dirinya terus dikuasai oleh perasaan risau Adam mundar-mandir di hadapan bilik pembedahan Sesekali Adam ditegur oleh ayah Qis Selang beberapa jam kemudian bilik pembedahan kemudian terbuka luas dan secara langsung Doktor Ng berjalan menghampiri dua buah keluarga yang sesungguhnya mengharapkan satu keajaiban berlaku ‘Syukurlah ketabahan anak perempuan encik telah membuahkan hasil Dia kini boleh melihat semula Tapi buat masa ini berikan dia ruang untuk berehat Esok pagi baru kami izinkan encik dan keluarga menjenguknya Terima kasih’ kata doktor Ng dengan senyuman Doktor Ng berlalu pergi ‘ Terima kasih doktor terima kasih Jasa doktor hanya Tuhan saja yang mampu membalas jasa baik doktor’kata ayah Qis yang berasa teramat-amat bersyukur atas keselamatan anaknya Qis Kini Qis telah selamat dan boleh melihat keindahan dunia semula Tuhan saja yang tahu akan kegembiraannya pada saat dia boleh melihat wajah-wajah yang cukup dikasihinya Semua bagaikan sebuah mimpi keajaiban berlaku dan kini dia sama seperti mereka yang lain Bukan lagi kegelapan tetapi sebaliknya sinar kebahagiaan terpancar semula Dalam hati Qis dia berasa beruntung kerana dilahirkan dalam keluarga yang tidak pernah mengenal erti putus asa keluarga angkatnya iaitu keluarga Adam yang juga tidak putus-putus dalam memberi sumbangan ikhlas dan Adam satu-satunya sahabat baiknya yang sanggup bersusah senang dengannya selama ini Qis tidak pernah berhenti mengucap syukur kepada Tuhan kerana memberinya kesempatan untuk melihat kembali dan sentiasa dikelilingi oleh mereka yang amat menyayanginya ‘Adam kau sahabat aku dulu kini dan selamanya’ Bisik Qis dalam hatinya Qis bahagia kini persahabatan Qis dan Adam terus terjalin mereka menjalankan kehidupan bersama susah dan senang gembira dan duka semua dikongsi bersama dan ia berkekalan selama-lamanya ‘Qis!tabah melihat penderitaan suaminya. Menunggu.Dan hari bahagia menjelma juga buat kedua-duanya Berwalikan walid Munir dinikahkan penuh adab Islam dengan gilang gemilangnya walaupun Munir terpaksa mengulang dua kali lafaz akad Bukan kerana tidak sempurna akad pertama tetapi kenakalan saksi-saksi dan walid yang sengaja mahu melihat kekalutan Munir Apapun Miftahul Huda sudah dalam gengamannya itulah cita-cita yang Munir benar-benar menunggu sejak dia kenal rasa cinta terhadap wanita itu Dan Miftahul Huda juga merelakan dirinya diikat kepada Munir sebab sememangnya dia sanggup menyerahkan kehidupannya kepada Munir sejak dia tertawan dengan sikap Munir yang penuh hikmahNyatanya kedua-duanya tidak terpikat kerana keperawanan masing-masing walaupun Munir boleh sahaja mencairkan jiwa berduyun-duyun perempuan dengan senyum dan pandangan matanya yang maskulin Lelaki mana yang tidak terdetak hatinya melihat wajah ayu Huda walaupun telah tertutup sempurna semua auratnya Miftahul Huda yang sangat terkenal apabila mula-mula mengenakan sarung tangan ke sekolah menjadi ikutan pula gadis-gadis lain Bibir Huda merah merekah hidungnya sederhana mancung dan matanya ah itulah yang paling berbisa alisnya hitam tebal seolah-olah dikenakan maskara anak matanya juga hitam berkilat dan apabila mata itu merenung seperti menyihir lelaki-lelaki agar datang dekat kepadanya Kerana itulah Munir meminta agar Huda sentiasa menundukkan pandangan lebih kepada kerana cemburunya dia kepada lelaki-lelaki yang tidak reti menjaga pandangan Dan kini Munir tidak perlu berselindung untuk menatap puas-puas wajah pujaannya itu“Kenapa Nir tengok Iftah macam tu” Pipi gebu yang tadi putih melepak dilanda merah apabila Munir tidak berkelip menatap wajah isterinya Mereka berdua-duaan di bilik waktu itu sesuai lakunya pengantin sehari bila malam menyapa“Kenapa tak boleh Nir tengok isteri Nir”“Bukan tak boleh tapi Iftah segan”“Kenapa segan Nir dah jadi milik Iftah Iftah dah jadi milik Nir Ha Iftah pun tenunglah Nir puas-puas” Munir berseloroh menyebabkan Miftah tergelak halus Itulah yang Munir tunggu dari Miftah tawanya yang tidak dapat dinikmati sebelum ini Indah wajah Miftah bila sedang riang ditambah dengan adab yang masih dijaga walau sedang bersama suami Hati Munir berbunga riang“Iftah tak tahu macam mana gelora jiwa Nir bila hari-hari jumpa Iftah tapi tak dapat nak tatap keayuan wajah Iftah” Munir menceritakan“Adakah kerana wajah ini Nir bernikah dengan Iftah” Miftah mendugaMunir berfikir lama Masakan tidak kerana keayuan itulah Munir tidak banyak memberontak dengan keputusan keluarganya Tetapi tarikan utama Miftah bukan pada kecantikan yang tidak terperi itu tetapi kemuliaan lakunya“Emmm ada menyumbang” Munir menjawab“Kalaulah Iftah tak cantik adakah Nir masih inginkan Iftah” Miftah masih mendugaSoalan itu membuatkan Munir terkedu lalu diam menyapa seketika Munir memikirkan jawapan yang terindah“Ada empat perkara yang dilihat pada wanita Keturunannya kekayaannya kecantikannya dan agamanya Maka Nir melihat kempat-empatnya tapi Nir mengikut saran Rasulullah melihat agama sebagai keutamaan Dan yang paling memikat Nir adalah keanggunan Iftah dalam budi bahasa Kecantikan Iftah mengikat Nir agar sentiasa menunggu Iftah Kenapa Iftah Tanya macam ni Kecantikan memang aset Iftah syukurlah terhadap pemberian tuhan” Munir menjawab agar Miftah berpuas hati“Kalau lepas ni Iftah jadu hodoh apa Nir masih sayang Iftah” Miftah tidak lagi bepuas hati dia menduga dengan soalan yang seterusnya“Iftah hodoh atau cantik dah bukan soalnya Nir akan selalu sayang Iftah sampai bila-bila Sampai bila-bila tahu” Munir menegaskan katanya Dicuitnya hidung Miftah menyebabkan Miftah merenget manja dan memegang erat tangan Munir itu diletakkan diribaannya“Atau sebenarnya selama ni Iftah pakai topeng Muka Iftah macam nenek kebayan ya” Munir masih menyakat dan balasannya adalah tamparan lembut Miftah pada tangannya Tamparan sayang “Ada-ada aja la Nir nih”“Nir akan sentiasa sayang seorang perempuan yang bernama Miftahul Huda”“Iftah akan sayang selalu seorang lelaki yang bernama Munir” Miftah mengikut dialog Munir“Mula-mula Munir sayang Allah kemudian Rasulullah kemudian umi lepas tu abi ma walid dan Miftahul Huda” Munir menyusul penuh manja Miftah yang mendengar berbunga riang walaupun namanya yang terakhir Itulah yang selayaknya“Mula-mula Miftahul Huda sayang Allah kemudian Rasulullah kemudian Munir” Miftah pula mengikutHati Munir sudah sangat berbunga sayang dan bahagia dirapati Miftah dan diciumnya ubun-ubun gadis itu Halus dan hangat Kehangatan itu sampai ke hati Miftah dan air mata syahdu mengalir ke pipinya Munir menanggalkan kelubung yang masih menutup kemas kepala Miftahul Huda dengan lembut Miftah diam sahaja Kaget barangkali kerana belum ada lelaki lain selain keluarga yang mahram melihat tanpa kelubung Maka terlihatlah rambut Miftahul Huda yang panjang dan lembut menambahkan keserian wanita perawan ituMunir sekali lagi mencium ubun-ubun Miftah “Nir tak akan mensia-siakan kurniaan tuhan yang cukup berharga seperti Miftah” Munir berkata syahdu“Iftah juga” Miftah mengiakan seraya mencium tangan suami yang tercinta Dan malam itu mereka berbahagia sebagai pasangan yang diredhai AllahHari itu Munir mengalami sakit kepala yang teramat Mungkin kerana tidak cukup tidur memandangkan begitu ramai pesakit yang perlu dirawat Munir baru beberapa minggu bertugas sebgai doktor di Hospital itu masih belum begitu sesuaikan diriTiba-tiba pintu biliknya diketuk seorang jururawat\”Dr Munir anda diperlukan di bilik kecemasan ada pesakit yang perlu dibedah kerana kecelakaan jalan raya\”“Ya saya bergegas ke sana” Cepat-cepat Munir mengatur langkah walaupun sakit kepalanya masih terasa Dia masuk ke bilik kecemasan menuju bilik operasi Lalu dia menuju ke kumpulan perawat yang terdiri daripada beberapa dockor dan jururawat Kali ini Munir bertugas sebagai doktor yang utama melakukan pembedahan Munir sepatutnya boleh sahaja menolak kerana keadaannya yang benar-benar sakit kepala Tetapi mengingatkan dia masih dalam tempoh percubaan terlalu manja mengadu boleh membuat orang benci Lalu digagahkan juga diri melakukan pembedahan ituKaki pesakir selesai dipotong Teruk kecederaanya kerana digilis tayar lori Waktu itulah Munir dilanda sakit kepala yang tidak tertahan Dibukanya sarung tangan yang berlumuran darah tanpa sengaja untuk mengurut kepala yang sangat sakit Semua berlaku dengan pantas apabila pisau bedah yang dipegang seorang jururawat untuk diberi kepada Munir terkena tangannya itu dan tangan Munir yang sedang luka kecil terdedah kepada darah yang pekat di katil pesakit apabila dia menahan dirinya dari jatuh di katil pesakit itu Semuanya berlaku sekelip mata Munir dipapah keluar oleh jururawat untuk berehat sedang luka yang terdedah itu tidak disedari sesiapa malahan Munir sendiri“Munir anda positif” Itulah kata-kata yang paling mengoyakkan jiwa Munir hari itu Bagaimana akan ditempuh hari-hari yang mendatang menghitung saat-saat kematian Dan Miftahul Huda Bagaimana dia menerima berita ini Bagaimana pula Miftahul Aqilah dan Zaid Naiman Bagaimana abi dan umi bagaimana ma dan walid Bagaimana!! Dia perlu tahu apa sebenarnya yang berlaku. tapi dia takut terpikat dengan cikgunya sendiri. sebaik dia pulang dari outstation.
” Mila duduk sebelah aku.” Dia berdiri dekat luar kelas memandang kearah aku Dan tersenyum. nak tanya sikit. Dah siap, Hafiz mengangkat kening.“Apit! Egy yang tadi seakan Hang Tuah yang ingin menyelamatkan Tun Teja terus tersembab di muka pintu. Penyamarannya selama sebulan ini sudah berakhir. Nampak tak? Niatnya untuk menyertai perkhemahan itu.Sejenak aku renung ke sekeliling pejabat tu, berpangkat dan berpengaruh. Begitu juga Firdaus. Sejujurnya dia cemburu. “Mark!” Saffiya meluru mendapatkan lelaki ituDirangkul erat lelaki kacukan itu “Bila you balik” “Petang tadi” tangan Mark melingkari pinggang ramping Saffiya Gadis molek itu merelakan saja perlakuan lelaki kesayangannya “Look at you nowGorgeous ” mata Mark puas meratah segenap tubuh Saffiya Dengan hanya mengenakan singlet ketat dan skirt pendek itu saja sudah cukup untuk mencabar keimanan sang buaya “FifiI miss you Boleh temankan I malam ni” tanya Mark sambil mengenyit matanya Saffiya tersenyum nakal “Let me think it first”Saffiya membuka matanya perlahan-lahan Seluruh tubuhnya terasa begitu lemah sekali Dia memandang sekeliling Kemudian kedua pergelengan tangannya Masih bernyawa lagi hambu-Mu ini Ya-Allah “Dah bangun” sapa Azhan yang duduk di sisi Saffiya dari tadi Saffiya cuba untuk bangun namun pantas dihalang Azhan “Jangan banyak bergerakAwak lemah lagiKena bnyak rehat”Nasihat AzhanSaffiya mengeluh “Kak Humaira mana” perlahan sekali suaranya seolah berbisik “Ada kat kedai Saffisaya nak panggil doctor sekejapAwak jangan tidur tau” pesan Azhan lalu meninggalkan Saffiya di situ “Jamilahkita umat Islam di muka bumi iniperlu saling membantusaling menyokong Bukannya saling mengutuk dan menjatuhkan Salah tu”Jamilah tundukDibiarkan saja Humaira berkhutbah di hadapannya “”Kamu tahu kan ganjaran yang akan kamu dapat sekiranya kamu sendiri membantu Saffiya kembali ke pangkal jalan Berlipat ganda pahalanya Tapi sebaliknya yang kamu terima bila kamu terus-menerus mencemuh dia” “Tapi kaksaya tak suka diaLagipunkalau saya tolong dia punbukannya berbaloi Ibadat yang dia buat kosong kakkalau rambut masih celup kuning lagi” lancing sekali Jamilah berkata-kata “Jamilah Siapa kamu untuk menentukan sah atau tidak amalan seseorang Kamu tiada hak Kamu tahu tak Setiap orang yang bertaubat dia diibaratkan lahir semula dari perut ibu Putihbersih dan suci dari dosa Tolonglah buang perasaan busuk hati kamu Gara-gara kamu dia terlantar kat hospital” Humairah duduk di kerusinya “Itu salah dia sendiriSyaitan dah biasa bertenggek kat dia Itulah sebab dia jadi macam tu” sinis sekali bunyinya “Astarghfirullah al-azim SudahlahJamilahMembazir masa je cakap dengan kamu niAkak nak pergi hospital Tolong jaga kedai” Humairah mengambil beg tangannya “Mudah-mudahan Allah beri petunjuk supaya kamu sedar kesilapan kamu” ujar Humaira sambil menepuk bahu JamilahAzhan memimpin tangan Saffiya berjalan ke taman mini di halaman rumah Sudah 2 hari dia terperuk di rumah sejak keluar dari hospital tempoh hari “Awak akan menjadi hamba Allah yang mati sia-sia sekiranya maut datang menjemput awak hari tu”Saffiya merenung Azhan yang tenang itu “Bunuh diri adalah salah satu daripada dosa yang besar Tak cium bau syurga tau Hanya orang yang tiada pegangan agama tiada Tuhan yang menggunakan cara ini sebagai panyelesaian terbaik” Azhan menarik nafasnya “Saya jahil Saya tak tahu apa-apa” Saffiya mulai sebak “Dugaan yang awak hadapi tu tak besar Saffi Pada masa akan datang dugaan yang lebih besar daripada ni yang akan awak hadapi Ini salah satu caranya Allah nak tengok sekuat mana pegangan agama umatnyaseteguh mana imannya dan sejauh mana kepercayaannya terhadap Penciptanya sendiri”Saffiya kaku Kata-kata Azhan itu begitu menyentap jiwanyaAlhamdulillah Ya Allah Kau masih memberiku peluang kedua untuk memperbaiki kesilapan masa silam ku “Awak kena kuat Saffi Jangan biarkan emosi mempengaruhi diri awak Kak Humaira sedih tengok keadaan awak macam ni Saya sendiri tak sanggup Awak jangan risau saya akan sentiasa ada di sisi awak ketika awak ada masalah” janji AzhanPeluh membasahi dahi Azhan Jantungnya berdegup kencang Tangannya kemas menggenggam erat jemari Saffiya Suasana di dalam bilik bersalin itu sungguh cemas Sesekali Saffiya mengerang kesakitan Kalaulah situasi itu boleh ditukar dia sedia menjadi galang-gantinya “Puan sabar ye” ujar jururawat yang bertugas sambil mengurut lembut perut Saffiya Hati Azhan direntap sayuMelihat kesakitan yang dilalui isterinya bagi menyempurnakan kelahiran zuriat pertama mereka “Doktor dah sampai”Humairah terburu-buru berjalan keluar dari lif Matanya liar ke kiri dan kanan mencari wad yang dihuni Saffiya Kemudian dia berhenti di hadapan wad 3 Anggerik “Assalamualaikum” ucap Humaira ketika menolak daun pintu “Comelnya Ada iras kamu Han” Humaira mengendong bayi kecil itu Azhan memaut bahu isterinya yang masih lemah itu “Han kan ayahnyamestilah ada iras Han”Saffiya hanya tersenyum “Akak lawat siapa tadi Abang Han cakap tadi akak pergi tengok orang sakit” tanya Saffiya “Baru akak teringat Akak lawat

Anyway,okey kita balik.”Bella mengalah. dan suara yang romantis. Dia merenung wajah gadis yang tertunduk malu itu sambil jarinya menguis-nguis daun-daun kering yang gugur bersebelahan.?Ini bermakna kamu telah lama mengenali diriku Mungkin juga kamu punyai perasaan yang sama terhadap diriku” dia cuba memerangkap si gadis yang semakin bercelaru Pandangannya semakin tidak keruan“Tidak Sedikitpun saya tidak menyukai dirimu” bentak Balkis sambil melarikan wajahnya daripada terus dijamah oleh pandangan mata lelaki itu“Jangan kamu menipu perasaan kamu sendiri Kalau tidak masakan kamu sanggup mengikuti segala cerita tentang diriku” dia memerangkap kembali Hatinya kian dibungai oleh satu harapan yang pasti dapat disentuhnyaDia berdiri menghadap gadis itu Sekali lagi gadis itu cuba melarikan pandangannya daripada bertemu dengan mata lelaki itu Dia tetap berkeras dan tidak akan melepaskan gadis itu pergi kerana dia yakin ada sesuatu yang ingin disampaikan oleh gadis itu Kalau tidak mengapa gadis itu sendiri yang datang kepadanya“Balkis aku mencintaimu lebih daripada segala-galanya Kamulah wanita pertama yang telah menghadiahkan aku perasaan kasih sayang yang tidak pernah aku rasai sebelum ini seolah-olah kehadiran kamu adalah anugerah daripada Allah sebelum melihat aku terus tersesat di atas perut bumi yang melalaikan ini dan kamu adalah orang yang dikirim untuk membantu aku mendekatkan diri kepadaNya tuhan si pencipta yang telah menciptakan perasaan yang indah ini…”dia terus bersyarah Namun pada nada suaranya jelas kedengaran getar yang kian menyesakkan Terungkap bersama perasaan yang terlalu terdesak dan penuh pengharapan Dia merenung wajah Balkis yang tertunduk lesu Pandangan mata gadis itu merenung pasir-pasir halus yang dipijaknya Sesekali hujung kakinya menguis-nguis pepasir itu Gadis itu kian keliru untuk meluahkan apa yang terbuku di hati Rasa serba salah menghantui dirinya Dia berkira-kira terhadap apa yang telah difikirkan sebelum ini“Kenapa saudara memilih saya sebagai insan yang terpilih itu Bukankah saya hanya seorang gadis biasa yang tidak punya apa-apa” bicara si gadis dengan pandangan mata yang berkaca“Tapi kamu sangat istimewa dan sempurna pada pandangan mataku” tambahnya kembali dengan penuh yakin“Walaupun setelah mengetahui latar belakang saya Seorang anak yang lahir tanpa mengetahui asal-usulnya tanpa mengetahui daripada rahim siapa dia dilahirkan dan tanpa mengetahui keturunannya Sanggupkah awak…” balas suara itu LemahDia tersentak mendengar pengakuan daripada gadis manis itu Dia melihat ada air yang tumpah dari tubir matanya Sedaya upaya gadis itu cuba menahannya daripada terus dipertontonkan Melihatkan air mata yang terus tumpah satu persatu di ribaan gadis itu perasaan kasihnya kian mendalam Rasa ingin didakapnya tubuh gadis yang sedang duduk dihadapnnya itu Biar dia sahaja yang memujuk dan menenangkannya agar gadis itu tahu betapa ikhlas perasaannya“Mengapa perlu diungkit asal usul awak Saya mencintai awak seikhlas hati sepertimana awak mengajar saya untuk mencintai pencipta…walau siapa pun awak cinta saya tidak pernah pudar dan tidak akan mati walaupun maut menjadi perantaraannya Cinta kita akan terus bersemadi sehingga ke liang lahad sekalipun Cuma satu pintaku yakinlah bahawa aku benar-benar mencintaimu Izinkan aku membuka pintu hatimu agar dapat aku menumpang kasih dari seseorang yang sangat aku sayangi…” dia terus memujuk walaupun suaranya kian bergetar Memendam perasaan yang bercampur baur pada ketika ituDia melihat kepada Balkis Air matanya sudah disapu Gadis itu terus berteleku di atas bangku itu Tiada perkataan yang keluar daripada mulutnya Hanya esakan kecil yang kedengaran jelas pada pendengaran Pada saat itu rasa kasih dan cinta terhadap gadis itu kian menebal dan menjalar di setiap inci rung tubuhnya Walau siapapun Balkis ia tidak akan mengurangkan rasa sayangnya walaupun seinci cuma Hatinya tekad dan perasaannya tidak pernah salah pada kali ini untuk mncintai gadis yang bernama Balkis itu Dia merenung pada seraut wajah yang masih tertunduk dihadapannya itu menantikan jawapan daripadanya Dia berdebar dan amat berharap agar Balkis tidak menolak cintanya pada kali ini“Saya takut saudara malu dengan latar belakang saya…” bicara si gadisDia tersenyum mendengar suara yang sering dirinduinya saban hari Lama dia menunggu gadis itu untuk bersuara“Aku akan menerima segala kekurangan diri kamu dengan rasa hati yang terbuka kerana aku terlalu mencintaimu Tidak akan ada sebarang halangan yang akan menghalang hati kita daripada bersatu Cuma satu aku ingin dengar daripada kamu sudikah kamu menerima cintaku”Dia melutut di hadapan gadis itu mengharapkan diberi peluang untuk bertamu di hati gadis itu“Demi Tuhan saya juga mencintai saudara…” jawab si gadis malu-malu Wajahnya masih lagi tertunduk merenung tanah Barangkali tidak berani bertentang mata dengannyaDia tersenyum sambil meraup kedua-dua belah tapak tangannya ke muka Sinar kegembiraan jelas terpancar pada wajahnya yang cerah Tiada lagi redup dan kerut seperti sebelumnya Seolah-olah dialah manusia yang paling bahagia di dunia ini Dia cuba memegang bahu Balkis sedaya-upaya gadis itu cuba mengelak sambil menghadiahkan sekuntum senyum??

Odie ketika mengucapkannya “Tolong pulangkan balik”Buku-buku komik yang ditinggalkan arwah abangnya itulah jadi peneman Odie bila dia rindukan keluarganya Bila dia teringat-ingatkan abangnya Komik itulah yang dibelek-beleknya Abang Shaqir itulah tempat dia mengadu teman dia bergaduh teman dia bermain Abang Shaqir Odie rinduOdah mencemik dan tanpa rasa bersalah dia berkata “Odah dah buang”Terkebil-kebil mata Odie mendengar kata-kata Odah Hendak marah tapi suaranya bagai tersekat di kerongkong Akhirnya dia pejamkan mata sejenak cuba menghilangkan rasa sedih dan terkilan yang mula bersarang di hati Seketika kemudian dia berlalu pergi tanpa berkata apa-apaOdah pandang sahaja Odie yang berlalu Entah kenapa tiba-tiba dia rasa melampau sangatkah***Tiga tahun kemudian Odie berjaya melanjutkan pelajaran ke sebuah universiti tempatan Semenjak hari itu bilik Odie jarang-jarang ada penghuni Perabot dan pakaian serta buku-buku milik Odie masih tersimpan kemas di dalamnya Sesekali Odie pulang bermalam di situ bila tiba cuti semester Mereka dia dan Odah sudah jarang bertembung bila bertembung pun mereka jarang bersuaraSuatu hari Odah menyelongkar bilik Odie Lagi Hasrat hati hendak mencari nota-nota SPM milik Odie yang boleh dibuat rujukan Ketika sedang leka memunggah bahan-bahan bacaan yang ada tiba-tiba pintu bilik tersebut berkeriut Seseorang sedang membukanya dari luar“Odah”“Abang Odie” Odah menoleh terperanjat Tidak menyangka yang Odie akan pulang bercuti Bukankah hari itu mama kata Odie tak jadi balik“Odah buat apa kat bilik abang”Odah segera menyorokkan sebuah buku nota yang dijumpainya di belakang badan Namun mata Odie lebih pantas menangkap tindakan Odah“Curi buku abang lagi ek”“Huh Tak ingin pun” dengus Odah kasar sebelum menghempas buku nota yang disembunyikan itu ke atas meja“Odah”Odah bergegas keluar dan dengan sengaja melanggar bahu Odie Odie sekadar menggelengkan kepala Odah OdahKeesokkan paginya sebuah kotak memuatkan pelbagai nota dan buku-buku rujukan diletakkan di muka pintu bilik Odah***Mulut Odah terjuih bila dia melihat kelibat Odie dari jauh sedang menghampiri mereka ketika dia mendaftarkan diri sebagai pelajar baru untuk sebuah universiti tempatan“Mama apasal abang Odie ada kat sini”“Laa dia kan belajar kat sini” balas mamanya yang sedang melambai-lambai ke arah OdieOdah sudah mula buat muka “Kenapa Mama tak cakap abang Odie pun belajar kat sini”“Odah yang isi borang tu dulu kan Odah sendiri Odah yang letak universiti ni sebagai pilihan pertama” Ayah Odah yang sedang mengangkat keluar beg serta perkakas milik Odah dari dalam bonet kereta itu bersuaraOdah gigit bibir Kalau dia tahu Odie pun belajar kat sini sudah tentu dia tidak akan meletakkan universiti ini jadi pilihan yang paling atasHaish Odah memejamkan mata Tak lama pun Odie tu ada kat sini dua tahun jer Belajarlah bertahan Odah Fikir OdahPada ketika itu Odie sudah pun menjadi senior dan bakal menamatkan pengajiannya dalam masa dua tahun sedangkan Odah baru hendak memulakan pembelajarannya di universiti tersebut“Jangan cuba tegur-tegur Odah tau bila terserempak dengan Odah kat mana-mana kawasan universiti ni” pesan Odah yang lebih kepada amaran“Odah Kenapa cakap macam tu Bukankah elok abang Odie ada kat sini Bolehlah dia menjaga kamu” tegur ayahnyaOdah mencemik Jaga aku konon diri sendiri pun tak terjagaTapi Odie sekadar tersenyum tidak ambil hati pun dengan kata-kata Odah***Hari ini Odah bagai nak meraung jer bila dapat panggilan dari kampung Sungguh dia tak percaya Tak boleh jadi ni Aku mesti jumpa abang Odie Lantas

Rini balik yer? Dalam hanyut diterjah mimpi-mimpi semalam, Arisha dan Nuha berjalan keluar daripada Dewan Angkasa dan melangkah ke Scarlet Café yang menyediakan makanan untuk graduan-graduan hari ini. Air matanya mengalir keluar lagi.” Timah masih ingat, Sebab kau tu yang miang! Zafran terus membaringkan badannya.?? jawab Mak cik Limah. Mak jangan salahkan Mia, “Good night. Jojo” “Mak ni kan masih terlalu awal nak beli barang untuk baby” rungut Mia yang sudah kelelahan berwakaf di dalam The Mall Gadong “Kita kena sediakan awal kan ni untuk cucu mak yang pertama jadi mesti special” jawab Maimunah ibarat orang yang sihat walafiat “Mak Jeff tak lama lagi datang jemput kita ni nanti terpaksa pula dia tunggu lama-lama kan kesian dia mak dahlah dia banyak urusan” pujuk Mia “Ye tak ye juga okay then” Mia dan Maimunah berlalu keluar dari shopping complex membeli belah yang tampak agak lenggang pada hari itu maklumlah bulan tualah katakan Tanpa sedar mereka telah diperhatikan oleh tiga orang lelaki dari kejauhan Serta merta terasa beg tangan milik Mia dan Maimunah diragut oleh lelaki-lelaki yang tidak dikenali itu Mia masih sempat bergelut dengan seorang lelaki yang meregut begnya Lantas lelaki itu mengeluarkan sebilah pisau kecil yang disembunyikan di dalam jaket kulitnya Mata pisau itu sempat menghiris tangan Mia Maimunah yang melihat kejadian itu lantas berteriak Satu tumbukan hinggap ke wajah lelaki yang melukai Mia Jeff kelihatan segak sambil melawan lelaki-lelaki jahanam itu satu-persatu hinggalah datang beberapa orang security menangkap si pencuri Di dalam kerisauan dia bersyukur kerana tidak terluka dalam kejadian tadi bahkan Jeff juga beruntung kerana tidak menerima satupun pukulan percuma dari lelaki-lelaki tadi Hanya saja anak kesayangannya itu terluka hasil pergelutannya dengan pencuri tadi kerana enggan melepaskan beg tangannya Maimunah merenung wajah menantunya yang pucat kerisauan Andai Jeff tadi datang terlambat tak tahulah nasib mereka beranak Kebetulan pada hari-hari begitu shopping complex di situ sangat sunyi Dia menggenggam tangan menantunya itu agar menghilangkan serba sedikit kerisauan yang menggunung di hati Jeff Maimunah rasa bersalahBab 3 Sudah seminggu berlalu Mia sudah beransur pulih dan mulai bekerja semula Maimunah dan Jeff gembira sekali Mia masih ingat akan kata-kata Jeff yang membuatnya bingung dengan perasaannya sendiri “Lain kali kalau nak jalan-jalan tu bagitau I dulu buat risau macam nak rak aje” Suara kebimbangan Jeff itu melekat di kepalanya “Nanti balik office cepat-cepat pulang yerk” tiba-tiba kepala Jeff menjengul dari pintu kamar mereka Mia cepet-cepat menganggukkan kepalanya sambil menutup bahagian dadanya malu kerana dirinya masih berkemban Terdengar suara Jeff tertawa di luar Petang itu Mia menerima panggilan dari hospital Dikhabarkan bahawa ibunya pengsan setelah jatuh dari tangga Lantas Mia mempercepat langkahnya menuju ke kereta untuk pergi ke hospital Matanya memandang sayu ibunya yang terlantar lemah Doktor mengatakan bahawa ibunya tidak mengalami apa-apa kecederaan Namun hatinya tetap pilu teringat penyakit mematikan yang dihidap oleh ibunya dia menangis di sisi Maimunah hingga terlelap Sudah 2 jam dia menanti namun kelibat yang dinanti-nanti belum juga kunjung tiba Jeff menunggu dengan sabar Telefon bimbitnya berdering lalu diangkatnya tanpa memeriksa siapa gerangan yang membuat panggilan Setelah mematikan talian dia bergegas mendapatkan kunci kereta Setiap bait wajah Mia dan Maimunah bermain-main di kotak fikirannya yang masih terbelenggu Dia mengerti akan kelakuan Mia yang lupa memaklumkan dirinya tentang keadaan mertuanya itu Jeff memerhatikan wajah isterinya yang jelas kelihatan lepas menangis Mungkin bimbang sangat akan keadaan ibunya Kesal juga dia kerana Pak Karjo pemandu kereta mereka tidak memberitahunya awal-awal lagi Jeff memunajatkan rasa syukur kerana ibu mertuanya itu tidak apa-apa Cuma pengsan sahaja Jeff menuju ke almari kecil yang terletak berhadapan dengan katil pasien Dia mencapai sehelai selimut yang tersusun rapi lalu menyelimuti tubuh isterinya yang kurus itu Lalu dia mengambil tempat di sebelah Mia sambil menghayati setiap corak ukiran wajah insan yang semakin disayanginya itu kemudian mengalunkan ayat selamat hari jadi ke telinganya Tanpa disedari dia akhirnya turut terlelap sama Mia menguap sebangunnya dia dari tidur Sejurus terpandang wajah Jeff yang terlena dia teringat akan kata-kata Jeff pagi tadi Arghhh Menyedari adanya sehelai selimut yang menutupi tubuhnya dia semakin rasa bersalah Pasti Jeff Lantas dia berdiri lalu meyelimuti tubuh yang entah pernahkah dianggapnya sebagai seorang suami Setelah mencuci muka Mia menuju ke rumahnya untuk mengambil beberapa perkakas keperluan ibunya Dia ingin ibunya dirawat di rumah sakit agar penjagaan yang rapi akan diberikan kepada insan yang begitu disayanginya itu Takut kejadian yang sama akan terulang lagi apabila ibunya bebas untuk ke mana-mana Alangkah terkejutnya apabila dia mendapati pelbagai jenis makanan yang terhidang di atas meja Lilin yang mungkin sudah terpasang kini sudah padam Jeff kah yang sediakan semua ni Tapi untuk apa Sekali lagi dia teringan pesan suaminya itu “Nanti balik office cepat-cepat pulang yerk” Mia memerhati ruang makan dengan teliti Mia mendapati sebuah kotak kecil di atas kerusi makan yang biasanya diduduki oleh Jeff Lantas dia membukanya perlahan Seutas rantai yang berbuahkan bentuk hati Hati wanitanya tersentuh Matanya menangkap sebuah nota kecil??

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: September 14, 2006Running behind schedule because of software problems, flight controllers early today began a slow, careful process to unfurl a new set of solar arrays aboard the international space station. The plan called for first deploying the huge panels just a few feet to let them warm up and decompress after years in storage. Later today, the Atlantis astronauts will send commands to fully extend the new arrays. The first section of solar wing was unfurled this morning. Credit: NASA TV/Spaceflight NowThe initial deployment had been planned for Wednesday night, but software problems held up checkout of a large rotary drive mechanism designed to rotate the new arrays 360 degrees to stay face on to the sun as the station circles the globe.One of two drive lock assembly – DLA – motors in the solar alpha rotary joint worked properly in an initial test, rotating the still-stowed arrays 180 degrees. But the drive gear in a redundant DLA appeared to be misaligned and testing was put on hold. Late last night, engineers traced the problem to a software commanding issue and after implementing a workaround, DLA-2 eventually moved the arrays through a 360-degree rotation as planned.Finally, at 5 a.m., the first set of arrays – 4A – began slowly unfurling on ground command as its self-assembling mast pulled the top few feet of folded solar cell blankets from its box. The other array, 2A, followed suit at 5:46 a.m.The Atlantis astronauts hope to complete solar array deployment later today in stages, sending commands to unfurl the panels first to 49 percent and then to a full 100 percent in what promises to be the most visually dramatic moment of the ongoing space station assembly mission.Here is an updated timeline of today’s activities (NOTE: solar array deploy times are uncertain and not included; in EDT and mission elapsed time):12:15 AM041300STS/ISS crew wakeup03:35 AM041620EVA tool config05:40 AM041825ERCA troubleshooting06:10 AM041855Station robot arm reconfig06:45 AM041930Crew meals begin11:25 AM050010Canadian PAO event with Jett, MacLean11:45 AM050030Transfer tagup11:50 AM050035CNN, NPR interview Jett, Vinogradov, Williams11:50 AM050035Infrared camera setup12:10 PM050055EVA-3: Procedures review02:20 PM050305EVA-3: Campout mask pre-breathe (Tanner, Piper)03:05 PM050350EVA-3: Crew lock 10.2 depress03:45 PM050430ISS crew sleep begins04:15 PM050500STS crew sleep begins (Tanner, Piper in airlock)Each solar array wing is 15 feet wide and 115 feet long. Extending in opposite directions, the wings will stretch more than 240 feet from tip to tip when fully deployed. The so-called P4 array, or port 4 segment of the station’s main power truss, is bolted to the SARJ mechanism on the outboard side of the P3 truss segment that also serves to route power and data to and from the solar panels.When completed, the space station’s power truss will stretch more than a football field from end to end. Two huge solar arrays on each end of the truss will track the sun as the station circles the globe, rotating and changing pitch as required to maximize electrical generation.Finishing the main truss and wiring in the new arrays is a major element of near-term station assembly missions.One set of arrays, P6, is already attached to the station, providing power for the U.S. segment of the outpost. It is attached to the Z1 truss that extends upward from the Unity module at right angles to the main solar array truss. It will be moved next August to its final position next to the P4 arrays that were attached to the station Tuesday by Atlantis’ crew.Two other sets of identical arrays will be mounted on the right side of the truss during shuttle assembly flights in February 2007 and June 2008.Designed by Boeing, the newly attached P4 truss features two motor-driven self-assesmbling masts designed to pull out a pair of solar blankets. For launch, the arrays are folded like venetian blinds in blanket boxes measuring 15 feet long but just 20 inches thick.The P3 truss was delivered to the Kennedy Space Center in November 1999. P4 followed suit in July 2000. The solar array blankets have not been unfolded since they were originally stowed for launch.Prior to Columbia’s launch in January 2003, the arrays were certified to operate and deploy normally when stowed for up to 45 months. Because of the extended downtime after the Columbia accident, one of the blanket boxes on P4 was removed and shipped to California for deployment tests. A replacement blanket was installed aboard P4.As it turned out, the deployment tests went well and the blanket, which had been stowed 39 months at that point, worked normally. As a result, the certification age limit was boosted to 82 months. As of launch aboard Atlantis, the P4 blankets had been stowed for 67 and 73 months respectively.One other consequence of the Columbia recovery and subsequent launch delays was a decision to replace all 12 batteries in P4. The 372-pound batteries were swapped out in March and August of 2005.The solar array wings were designed by Lockheed Martin. They weigh more than 2,400 pounds and feature some 33,000 solar cells per blanket. They are designed to produce more power than the station actually needs to compensate for normal degradation as the outpost ages.The blankets must face the sun directly for maximum electrical generation and two mechanisms are in place to do just that. The wings can be rotated about their long axis by beta gimbal joints, much like the pitch of an airplane propeller can be adjusted. The SARJ, on the other hand, rotates the arrays through 360 degrees like a waterwheel around the axis of the main truss.The P4 integrated equipment assembly, or IEA, is a cube measuring 16 feet on a side and weighing nearly 17,000 pounds. It includes direct current converters, 12 batteries, battery chargers, control computers and an ammonia cooling system to keep the electronic gear at the proper temperature. A single set of folding radiator panels will extend 44 feet when fully deployed.Most of the work to ready the new P4 arrays for extension “is done by the flight control team,” Jett said. “The EVA crew does the physical work, in terms of, positioning the arrays and releasing all the bolts and the launch restraints. But then the preparation to actually make the deployment happen, all the activation sequence and the activation of the rotary joint, is all performed by the ground team.”The P4 arrays are identical to P6, which was attached to the space station during shuttle mission STS-97 in December 2000. When the first blanket was deployed, engineers were surprised to see several of the blanket panels had stuck together. When they jerked free, a tensioning cable jumped its guides and required repairs on a subsequent spacewalk. For the second array’s deployment, the crew let the sun warm up the array and deployed it in a so-called high-tension mode. That technique worked, and the array unfurled without incident.For the P4 deploy, the arrays will first be extended the length of a single bay of each mast – a few feet worth – to relieve compression and to begin warming up the panels.”The one-bay deploy is basically to start the relaxation of the blankets and to get ahead,” station flight director John McCullough said Wednesday. “The time we’re in an inertial attitude, the attitude where we continuously point the arrays at the sun, is limited because the rest of the space station doesn’t really like that atitude.”For this deploy, we want to have the sun in a certain cone to warm the back of the blankets and there’s a limit to that. We can only be there for three revs around the Earth.”Working in stages, the astronauts will extend the 4A mast to a distance of 49 percent early Thursday, wait a half hour or so for additional solar heating, and then the rest of the way to full extension. They will repeat that process for the 2A mast. It will take about 90 minutes for each panel to fully deploy.”We’re not too terribly concerned about stiction on the deploy,” said Tanner, a veteran of the STS-97 mission. “We know it might happen in certain panels. The team went hard to work after STS-97 to figure out the mechanism of stiction and what we can do to reduce it. They came up with a good operational plan to nominally deploy.”Now if for some reason one or two panels sticks after all that, then we can go out EVA, it would be on EVA 3, and actually manually peel the panels apart for the first 40 inches or so and doing a nominal deploy after that. All of our tests say they will peel open very easily. So we’re not too terribly concerned about that.”Space station Program Manager Mike Suffredini agreed that experience gained during the STS-97 mission in 2000 should result in a smooth deploy.”The good news is we’ve done it twice before,” Suffredini said. “The first time we deployed one of these arrays, we learned about a stiction issue that existed. After quite a bit of work during that mission, we deployed the second array in a little bit different technique, which allowed us to be successful. We learned a lot about techniques to get these arrays out without having the tension wire come loose, which is what happened when we tried to deploy the first one. It turns out after a lot of work … we figured out a fix to go back in there to put it back in its original condition. And of course, the arrays have been fine ever since.Using an engineering model, “we did quite a bit of testing on this stiction issue and how these arrays can stick together based on the silicon bead that’s on the arrays and then we compress them for long periods of time before they go fly. And that was basically the cause of the problem. Over a long period of time this silicon would tend to attach itself to the back part of the array. And so we’ve done a number of things, largely operational changes but also on how we dealt with the arrays.”While the arrays were compressed for shipment to Florida, that pressure was relaxed until shortly before final preparations.”Probably the largest changes were operational,” Suffredini said. “We will partially deploy the array about one bay’s worth and we’ll let it warm up and sort of expand a little bit. Then the actual deploy process a little bit later will have us deploy the array halfway and then you’ll see us sit for about 30 minutes as we warm it up and then we’ll go the rest of the way.”In addition to that, we’re using what we call a high-tension mode. Instead of leaving the lower part of the array free to move up and down as the array gets deployed, we learned we need to hold it down against the bottom of the blanket box. So the new technique holds it down and then this particular deploy lets the heat warm things up, to allow the silicon to free itself, is the process we’ll use to deploy. I have a lot of confidence in the deployment of the arrays.”The new solar arrays will not be rotated on the SARJ because of interference with the port wing of the P6 array and they will not provide any power to the space station until reconfigurations during the next shuttle mission in December.For readers interested in a bit more detail, here is an overview provided by Boeing, the prime contractor.Source: BoeingElectrical power is the most critical resource for the ISS because it allows astronauts to live comfortably, safely operate the station, and perform complex scientific experiments. Since the only readily available source of energy for spacecraft is sunlight, technologies were developed to efficiently convert solar energy to electrical power. One way to do this is by using large numbers of solar cells assembled into arrays to produce high power levels. The cells are made from purified crystal ingots of silicon that directly convert light to electricity through a process called photovoltaics. Solar cells do the job, but a spacecraft orbiting the Earth is not always in direct sunlight so energy has to be stored. Storing power in rechargeable batteries provides a continuous source of electricity while the spacecraft is in the Earth’s shadow.NASA and Lockheed Martin developed a method of mounting the solar arrays on a “blanket” that can be folded like an accordion for delivery to space. Once in orbit, astronauts deploy the blankets to their full size. Gimbals are used to rotate the arrays so that they face the Sun to provide maximum power to the Space Station. The solar arrays track the sun in two axes: beta and alpha.P4 is the second of four PVMs that will eventually be brought up to the International Space Station, converting sunlight to electricity. The first one, named P6, was brought on orbit by the STS-97 crew in November 2000. The primary functions of the P4 photovoltaic module are to collect, store, convert and distribute electrical power to loads within the segment and to other ISS segments. The P4 PVM consists of two beta gimbal/PV array assemblies, two beta gimbal transition structures, one integrated equipment assembly and associated cabling and tubing. The P4 PVM components were assembled by Boeing in Tulsa, Okla. and Lockheed Martin in Sunnyvale, Calif. prior to final assembly and testing by Boeing at Kennedy Space Center, Fla.There are two solar array wings (SAW) designed, built and tested by Lockheed Martin in Sunnyvale, Calif. on the P4 module, each deployed in the opposite direction from each other. Each SAW is made up of two solar blankets mounted to a common mast. Prior to deployment, each panel is folded accordion style into a solar array blanket box (SABB) measuring 20 inches high and 15 feet in length. Each blanket is only about two inches thick while in this stored position. The mast consists of interlocking battens which are stowed for launch inside a mast canister assembly (MCA) designed, built and tested by ATK-Able. When deployed by the astronauts, the SAW deploys like an erector set as it unfolds. It has two arms like a human torso when mounted on P4 which are rotated outwards by astronauts during a spacewalk so they can be fully deployed. Because these blankets were stored for such a long time, NASA, Boeing and Lockheed Martin conducted extensive testing to ensure they would unfold properly once on orbit to ensure there would be no problems with the blankets sticking together. This testing was completed in July 2003.When fully deployed, the SAW extends 115 feet and spans 38 feet across and extends out to each side of the integrated equipment assembly. Since the second SAW is deployed in the opposite direction, the total wing span is over 240 feet.Each solar array wing weighs over 2,400 pounds and use nearly 33,000 (32,800 per wing) solar array cells, each measuring 8-cm square with 4,100 diodes. The individual cells were made by Spectrolab and ASEC. There are 400 solar array cells to a string and there are 82 strings per wing. Each SAW is capable of generating nearly 32.8 kilowatts (kW) of direct current power. There are two SAWs on the P4 module yielding a total power generation capability approaching 66 kW, enough power to meet the needs of 30 average homes without air conditioning (based on an average 2kW of power).Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:PORT 3/PORT 4 TRUSS KEEL PIN REMOVED AND STOWED VIDEO:HELMETCAM OF BURBANK REMOVING SARJ RESTRAINT VIDEO:SPACEWALKERS PAUSE FOR PICTURE TIME VIDEO:STEVE MACLEAN REPORTS LOST BOLT VIDEO:ROTARY JOINT LOCK REMOVED BY SPACEWALKER VIDEO:STEP-BY-STEP PREVIEW OF SPACEWALK NO. 2 VIDEO:POST-EVA 1 STATUS BRIEFING VIDEO:TANNER LOSES BOLT DURING ROTARY JOINT WORK VIDEO:PIPER UNFOLDS SOLAR BLANKET BOXES VIDEO:SECOND WING’S STRUCTURE DEPLOYED BY PIPER VIDEO:FIRST SOLAR WING’S STRUCTURE DEPLOYED BY TANNER VIDEO:STEP-BY-STEP PREVIEW OF SPACEWALK NO. 1 VIDEO:TRUSS HANDED FROM SHUTTLE ARM TO STATION ARM VIDEO:ARM MANEUVERS TRUSS OVER SHUTTLE WING VIDEO:TRUSS SLOWLY LIFTED OUT OF PAYLOAD BAY VIDEO:ATLANTIS’ ARM GRAPPLES THE TRUSS VIDEO:MONDAY’S MISSION STATUS BRIEFING VIDEO:ATLANTIS WELCOMED ABOARD THE STATION VIDEO:DOCKING REPLAY FROM CAMERA ON SHUTTLE ARM VIDEO:SHUTTLE ATLANTIS DOCKS TO THE STATION VIDEO:ATLANTIS’ BREATH-TAKING FLIP MANEUVER VIDEO:CREW’S CAMCORDER FOOTAGE OF EXTERNAL TANK VIDEO:NARRATED ANIMATION PREVIEWING TRUSS UNBERTHING VIDEO:NARRATED ANIMATION PREVIEWING THE DOCKING VIDEO:NARRATED ANIMATION OF PAYLOAD BAY CONFIGURATION MORE: VIDEO:BRIEFING ON TANK’S PERFORMANCE VIDEO:TANK’S ONBOARD CAMERA LIFTOFF TO SEPARATION VIDEO:FLIGHT DIRECTOR EXPLAINS INSPECTIONS VIDEO:SUNDAY’S MISSION STATUS BRIEFING VIDEO:LAUNCH OF ATLANTIS!

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: August 3, 2006 Credit: NASA-KSCNASA managers today decided to stick with an Aug. 27 launch target for shuttle Atlantis based on an analysis that indicates orbital lighting would not be sufficient for a launch on Aug. 26.As part of NASA’s recovery from the Columbia disaster, the agency wants to launch Atlantis in daylight and still have enough light in orbit after the climb to space to permit photo documentation of the foam insulation on the shuttle’s external fuel tank.Because of a potential conflict with launch of a Russian Soyuz spacecraft carrying the station’s next full-time crew, Atlantis’ launch window currently extends through Sept. 7. NASA managers asked engineers to assess the possibility of launching Atlantis as early as Aug. 26 to maximize their chances of getting the shuttle off before the window closes.That’s important because once the August/September window expires, NASA will only have three useable lighted launch days between then and the end of the year – two in late October and one in December.But as it turns out, critical areas of the tank’s insulation – so-called ice-frost ramps and the nearby area where longer protuberance air-load, or PAL, ramps were once in place, will not be sufficiently illuminated on Aug. 26 to permit the sort of photo documentation engineers want.As a result, NASA is sticking with the Aug. 27 launch target. Barring major problems, that date is expected to become official at the conclusion of a two-day flight readiness review Aug. 16.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:ATLANTIS ARRIVES AT LAUNCH PAD 39B VIDEO:ROLLOUT FROM VEHICLE ASSEMBLY BUILDING BEGINS VIDEO:TRUSS IN PAD’S PAYLOAD ROOM VIDEO:PAYLOAD HOISTED INTO THE PAD VIDEO:STATION TRUSS PAYLOAD DELIVERED TO PAD MORE: Telescopes.comLargest selection and the best prices anywhere in the world.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: September 7, 2006NASA managers today cleared the shuttle Atlantis for launch Friday despite a suspect electrical generator, deciding the risk of an in-flight fuel cell shutdown that could prompt a shortened mission was not a credible threat to the thrice-delayed space station assembly flight.If all goes well, engineers will begin loading a half-million gallons of rocket fuel into the shuttle’s external tank around 1:45 a.m. Friday for a launch attempt at 11:40:37 a.m. The forecast calls for a 70 percent chance of good weather, but if problems prevent liftoff, NASA can make a final try Saturday at 11:14:55 a.m., the newly declared end of the window.”After a very extensive review of the last almost 48 hours now, the team came to the conclusion today that the cloud that we saw over fuel cell No. 1 is probably acceptable to fly with,” said shuttle Program Manager Wayne Hale. “We had another very fun and interesting Mission Management Team meeting.”I’ve got to tell you that if you ever wanted to see the difference between the old NASA and the new NASA, you should have been over there today. There was a chance for everyone to participate, all the data was laid out on the table for everyone to examine, from the top of the agency down to the most junior engineer.”We had a vigorous debate and we had many people give their opinions and arguments,” Hale said. “And at the end of the day, when the Mission Management Team was polled by (Chairman) LeRoy Cain, it was not quite unanimous but very nearly unanimous with just a few folks voicing concerns that we go ahead and attempt to fly.”Some engineers, including representatives of UTC Power, the builder of the fuel pumps, believed it made more sense to replace the suspect fuel cell, which would have delayed the flight until after an upcoming Russian Soyuz flight to the space station.But Hale ultimately sided with LeRoy Cain, who argued in favor of launching during Wednesday’s MMT meeting, and ordered engineers to press ahead for a Friday launch.Facing the Bush administration’s 2010 deadline to complete the space station and retire the shuttle, and with multiple delays and just two flights under its belt since the 2003 Columbia disaster, some outside observers believe NASA managers are under pressure to resume station construction as soon as possible.NASA Administrator Mike Griffin approved a shuttle launch in July over the objections of NASA’s chief engineer and safety officer about external tank foam insulation that was officially classified as “probable/catastrophic” in NASA’s risk matrix. At the time, Griffin said he disagreed with that assessment and said he decided to proceed because of the potential impact of a lengthy delay on the downstream station assembly schedule.In the wake of the Columbia accident, NASA was criticized for putting the launch schedule ahead of flight safety and succumbing to “go fever.” But Hale today dismissed concern that schedule pressure played into today’s decision, saying “I think that’s a cockeyed way to look at it.”Hale said the fuel cell problem never violated NASA’s safety guidelines and that Atlantis could have been launched, by the book, without any additional debate.”What I would tell you – no offense – what I would tell you is without having a requirement, without having what in the old days would have been considered any credible reason at all, we have stood down two days to make sure that we are safe to fly. OK?” Hale told CBS News. “So we have gone the extra mile. And I’ve gotta tell you, from where I sit, I don’t feel like we’re racing to the end of the window. OK?”We have a couple of days available for launch and if we get the opportunity to go fly, I would like to take advantage of those couple of days. … I feel very confident we’re not racing, that we have, in fact, taken a very slow, methodical, thorough and safety-oriented approach in this whole matter, far and above what would have been done by folks in the old days.”The goal of the 116th shuttle mission is to install a 35,000-pound $372 million solar array on the end of a massive truss stretching across the U.S. Destiny laboratory module. It is the first of a half-dozen extremely complex flights to build out the solar arrays and prepare the station for arrival of European and Japanese research modules.Engineers initially hoped to launch Atlantis Aug. 27, but the flight was grounded by a launch pad lightning strike and then by tropical storm Ernesto. A launch try Wednesday was called off after an apparent short circuit showed up in fuel cell No. 1.Atlantis is equipped with three fuel cells that generate direct current electricity by combining oxygen and hydrogen in a sort of reverse electrolysis. That direct current is then converted into three-phase alternating current and distributed throughout the spacecraft across three electrical buses.The short in question occurred in fuel cell No. 1’s Freon coolant pump motor. While the motor runs fine on two-phase power, a subsequent short would knock it out of action and, without cooling, force the crew to shut down fuel cell 1. A fuel cell shutdown, in turn, would trigger a flight rule requiring the crew to shorten its mission and to land early.If a minimum-duration flight was declared early, the astronauts would still be able to dock with the station, attach the new solar array and stage at least one spacewalk to plug it into the station’s power and cooling systems. After that, the crew would be ordered home early. But Hale said he believed the odds of that, while not zero, were acceptably low.Extensive testing over the past two days convinced most engineers the short is in the motor itself and poses little risk of additional trouble. Playing it safe, a circuit breaker will be pulled for the duration of the mission that will cut phase A power to the Freon pump motor, a hydrogen pump in fuel cell No. 1 and a temperature sensor.Fuel cells do not lend themselves to repairs at the launch pad and in any case, NASA could not access the powerplants before the end of the launch window. The only realistic options were to fly as is or to order a swap out, a procedure that would take at least 11 days to complete at the launch pad.Hale said the complexity of the repair job raised the threat of collateral damage and added that even if Atlantis was delayed past Saturday, he would not order a swap out.In any case, the Russian space agency plans to launch a Soyuz rocket carrying the space station’s next full-time crew on Sept. 18. Any launch past the 18th would result in a pre-dawn landing for the outgoing station crew Sept. 28, a scenario the Russians are adamant about avoiding.In earlier discussions, NASA promised the Russians Atlantis would leave the station by Sept. 17 at the latest. NASA managers and their Russian counterparts have now agreed that Atlantis can remain docked to the station through Sept. 18 if necessary. That would permit the Atlantis astronauts to launch on Saturday, if required, and still extend the flight one day for additional heat shield inspections if required.Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:BRIEFING ON FUEL CELL DELAY VIDEO:TUESDAY’S STATUS UPDATE BRIEFING VIDEO:PRE-LAUNCH NEWS BRIEFING VIDEO:MONDAY’S COUNTDOWN STATUS VIDEO:BIOGRAPHY MOVIE ON THE SIX ASTRONAUTS VIDEO:SHORT MOVIE PREVIEW OF ATLANTIS’ MISSION VIDEO:OUTLOOK ON UPCOMING STATION ASSEMBLY FLIGHTS VIDEO:CREW ARRIVES IN T-38 TRAINING JETS VIDEO:COMMENTS FROM CREW AFTER ARRIVAL VIDEO:NEWS BRIEFING ON RETURN TO PAD VIDEO:ATLANTIS ROLLBACK BEGINS VIDEO:OFFICIALS EXPLAIN LIGHTNING SCRUB VIDEO:SEE THE LIGHTNING STRIKE AT PAD B VIDEO:ANOTHER VIEW OF LIGHTNING STRIKE VIDEO:COMPLETE PREVIEW OF ATLANTIS MISSION VIDEO:DETAILS OF THE THREE SPACEWALKS VIDEO:MEET THE SIX ASTRONAUTS MORE: STS-115 patchThe official crew patch for the STS-115 mission of space shuttle Atlantis to resume orbital construction of the International Space Station.Choose your store: – – – Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is now available in our store.

STORY WRITTEN FOR & USED WITH PERMISSIONPosted: December 16, 2006NASA’s Mission Management Team today decided to add a fourth spacewalk to Discovery’s mission in a bid to fully retract an unruly solar array on the international space station. The decision was announced during a spacewalk by Robert Curbeam and Sunita Williams to finish re-wiring the orbital outpost.”We are go for EVA-4 on flight day 10,” astronaut Stephen Robinson radioed from Houston.Curbeam and Williams plan to inspect the partially retracted P6-4B array later today and to possibly shake its storage box in a bid to free a presumably hung up guide wire preventing the blankets from folding smoothly.Assuming that doesn’t resolve the issue, Curbeam and Swedish astronaut Christer Fuglesang will carry out a fourth spacewalk Monday to attempt some sort of repair.Under that scenario, Discovery would undock from the station Tuesday and the astronauts would carry out a final heat shield inspection Wednesday. After packing up Thursday, landing at the Kennedy Space Center would be expected around 3:56 p.m. Friday.Curbeam and Williams successfully wrapped up a complex re-wiring job today, routing solar array electricity through two main bus switching units, transformers and other equipment making up channels 1 and 4 of the space station’s electrical power system. Flight controllers then successfully activated a critical pump to circulate ammonia coolant through cold plates and radiators to keep the electrical components from overheating.Curbeam and Fuglesang wired in electrical power system channels 2 and 3 during a spacewalk Thursday. Today’s work completed the station’s switch over from interim to permanent power, a major milestone that clears the way for future crews to build out the station’s main solar array truss and, eventually, to add new modules.Building out the main power truss requires astronauts to fold up and move the P6 solar arrays, which provided interim power to the station. P6 eventually will be moved to the far left side of the power truss where it will joint a set of arrays known as P4 that were attached in September.The Discovery astronauts attempted to retract the left wing of the P6 array, known as P6-4B, on Wednesday but they were only able to pull it in about half way. Several of the slats in the folding blankets failed to fold evenly, stopping the process in its tracks. Repeated attempts to free a presumably jammed guide wire were unsuccessful.Engineers initially said the array could be safely left as is, that it had enough structural rigidity in its partially retracted state to withstand shuttle and Russian Progress supply ship dockings and undockings. But there were questions about whether it was up to the jarring from Soyuz crew capsule dockings at a port closest to the array.NASA managers said earlier an additional spacewalk to deal with the array would force the astronauts to forego a planned final heat shield inspection after undocking because the shuttle only has enough hydrogen and oxygen for its electricity producing fuel cells to stay in orbit until Saturday at the latest.The original flight plan called for a landing Thursday at the Kennedy Space Center, preserving two weather contingency days. NASA seldom cuts into the weather reserve, prompting speculation that an additional spacewalk would rule out the late heat shield inspection.NASA went into Discovery’s flight with an understanding that a post-undocking heat shield checkout could be taken off the table if the astronauts had problems with the space station electrical work that might require an additional spacewalk.But during today’s Mission Management Team meeting, senior agency managers concluded an additional spacewalk would, in fact, be required to deal with the recalcitrant solar array.The repair work could have been deferred to the station’s three-person crew, but spacewalks use the buddy system and a single astronaut would be required to stay inside and operate the retraction system as well as the space station’s big robot arm.In the end, the MMT, chaired by John Shannon, decided to add a spacewalk to Discovery’s mission to resolve the matter sooner rather than later. The P6-2A wing, currently fully extended to the right side of the station, is scheduled to be retracted in March and engineers would like to have experience with P6-4B before attempting a second retraction that might result in the same problem.The P6 array, with both wings fully retracted, is scheduled to be unbolted and moved to the far left end of the station’s solar array truss in September.Along with adding another spacewalk to Discovery’s mission, the MMT also decided to preserve the final heat shield inspection, giving up one of the shuttle’s two weather contingency days.With only one weather contingency day beyond that, NASA likely will activate both of its backup landing sites at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., and White Sands, N.M., on Friday. Touchdown at the Kennedy Space Center, weather permitting, is scheduled for 3:56 p.m.Video coverage for subscribers only:VIDEO:WIDESCREEN VIEW FROM PLAYALINDA BEACH TRACKER VIDEO:DISCOVERY’S LAUNCH THROUGH FUEL TANK SEPARATION VIDEO:SHORT CLIP OF DISCOVERY BLASTING OFF VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS DEPART QUARTERS FOR PAD VIDEO:CREW FINISHES DONNING SPACESUITS VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS IN DINING ROOM VIDEO:TIME-LAPSE MOVIE OF PAD GANTRY ROLLBACK VIDEO:LONGER LENGTH MOVIE OF THE SCRUB VIDEO:SCRUB CALLED DUE TO LOW CLOUDS VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS DEPART QUARTERS FOR PAD VIDEO:CREW FINISHES DONNING SPACESUITS VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS IN DINING ROOM THURSDAY VIDEO:PAD’S ROTATING SERVICE STRUCTURE ROLLED BACK VIDEO:POST-ARRIVAL COMMENTS FROM THE CREW VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS ARRIVE IN WAVE OF T-38 JETS VIDEO:BIOGRAPHIES OF THE DISCOVERY ASTRONAUTS VIDEO:NARRATED STS-116 MISSION PREVIEW MOVIE VIDEO:WEDNESDAY’S SHUTTLE BRIEFING IN ITS ENTIRETY BRIEFING SOUNDBITES:VIDEO:THE ISSUES DISCUSSED AT FRR VIDEO:NOT YOUR FATHER’S FRR VIDEO:READY TO RESUME NIGHT LAUNCHES VIDEO:LAUNCH PREPS PROCEEDING WELL VIDEO:YEAR-END ROLLOVER CONCERNS VIDEO:REASSESSING TANK FOAM RISK VIDEO:STATION SOLAR ARRAY DRIVE SYSTEM PROBLEM VIDEO:PRESSURIZATION PRECAUTIONS AT THE PAD VIDEO:OVERVIEW OF STS-116 MISSION VIDEO:SHUTTLE/ISS PROGRAM PERSPECTIVE VIDEO:PREVIEW OF MISSION’S SPACEWALKS VIDEO:ASTRONAUTS’ PRE-FLIGHT NEWS BRIEFING VIDEO:COVERAGE OF PRACTICE COUNTDOWN ACTIVITIES VIDEO:DISCOVERY ROLLS TO THE PAD VIDEO:DISCOVERY MATED TO TANK AND BOOSTERS VIDEO:SHUTTLE HOISTED VERTICALLY INSIDE VAB VIDEO:DISCOVERY HAULED FROM HANGAR TO VAB VIDEO:PORT 5 TRUSS PAYLOAD PACKED UP VIDEO:CREW VISITS KENNEDY SPACE CENTER VIDEO:EXTERNAL FUEL TANK MATED TO BOOSTERS MORE: Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is now available in our store.
