Liar on the former. No "vague plan"...Ever hear of SLS? I thought not. SLS contracts are being issued, hardware such as J-2X is being tested, the Orion's had a LAS (Launch Abort System) test, and so on. Come back when you have more than mindless drivel. |

Come back when you have more than mindless drivel. ares had hardware and a mock up flight test too..... which led to zip nada nothing. except congressional pork make work project thats going no where fast. if dragon is successful nasa will look like a total waste |

Behn it appears the budget driven changes will exceed just the costs of winding down 2 wars. plus have you heard Iraq is destabilizing, and a civil war is coming. Iran is becoming more important sure we deposed saddam hussein, but for the people and the region our meddling just made things worse. although the military spending has been good for military suppliers, heck even the body bag ones with so many deaths sales soared........ |

Amici, Just a question in the Air: if musk is so damned almighty, why doesn't he gonna run his toys on their own long buckies. if he can show ability to provide commercially successful stuff, nasa will be crawling up to'im on their knees. so far, he issues useless anime, falcon 1e lives 4 nothing with so hella cheap price, space x has lack of specialists to run R&D. seems musk ain't right horsey to bet on XD others, private companies, aren't too far from him. if they're this way to keep going, new solyndras the matter of coming time.

"SpaceX will attempt the first commercial link-up with the International Space Station (ISS) on Feb. 7, which could be a major milestone on the way to the low-Earth-orbit economy NASA is trying to create." See: http://www.aviationweek.com/aw/gener...s/awx/2011/12/.... The Feb. 7th flight has been postponed: 1st Private Rocket Launch to Space Station Delayed. by Denise Chow, SPACE.com Staff Writer Date: 16 January 2012 Time: 01:51 PM ET http://www.space.com/14251-launch-de...aceflight.html The Russians and some members of NASA were uncertain about SpaceX's ability to perform the linkup with the ISS successfully. For a $100 billion asset, that is an understandable concern. A couple of suggestions. First hire away from the Russians some top guys involved with the Progress cargo vehicle to the ISS and from the Europeans some top guys involved with the ESA's Automated Transfer Vehicle(ATV). For the billion dollar cargo supply contract SpaceX has with NASA, it can afford to do that. Secondly, prior to the ISS docking mission do some rendezvous missions in space with the Dragon spacecraft. Ideally it would be with a vehicle that it could actually dock with. The Progress M-13M cargo vehicle for instance is scheduled to undock from the ISS in a few days. According to the Wikipedia page the undocking is scheduled for the 25th: Progress M-13M. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progress_M-13M while on this NASA release it's listed as on the 23rd: NASA ISS On-Orbit Status 19 January 2012. Source: NASA HQ Posted Thursday, January 19, 2012 http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewsr.html?pid=39635 The release of a small Russian satellite from the Progress and the de- orbit burn for the Progress is scheduled to occur a day later. Could the undocking or least the de-orbit burn be postponed for enough time for SpaceX to launch the Dragon to be able link up with the Progress vehicle? In any case, the current plan is not for Dragon to perform the final link-up with ISS under its own power and navigation capabilities but just to get close enough for the robot arm to grapple it and pull it to the station to dock with it. So for this, all the Dragon has to do is demonstrate the ability to get close enough to some orbiting satellite without colliding with it to within a similar distance is it would be to the ISS. It might be able to do this several times with different satellites to further demonstrate this capability. Bob Clark |
