SpaceX is targeting Saturday, November
SpaceX is targeting Saturday, November 11 for Falcon 9’s launch of the Transporter-9 mission to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The 55-minute launch window opens at 10:49 a.m. PT, 17:49 UTC, and 19:47 CET. If needed, there is a backup opportunity Sunday, November 12 with the same window.
The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched NROL-87, NROL-85, SARah-1, SWOT, Transporter-8, and six Starlink missions. Following stage separation, Falcon 9 will land on Landing Zone 4 (LZ-4) at Vandenberg Space Force Base.
Transporter-9 is SpaceX’s ninth dedicated smallsat rideshare mission. There will be 90 payloads on this flight deployed by Falcon 9, including CubeSats, MicroSats, and orbital transfer vehicles carrying an additional 23 spacecraft to be deployed at a later time.
SpaceX's SmallStat Rideshare Program provides small satellite operators with regularly scheduled, dedicated Falcon 9 rideshare missions to SSO for ESPA (EELV Secondary Payload Adapter) class payloads for as low s $275,000 per mission, which includes up to 50kg of payload mass.
The EELV Secondary Payload Adapter (ESPA) is an adapter for launching secondary payloads on orbital launch vehicles.
Originally developed for US launch vehicles in the 2000s to launch secondary payloads on space missions of the United States Department of Defense that used the Atlas V and Delta IV, the adapter design has become a de facto standard and is now also used for spaceflight missions on non-governmental private spacecraft missions as well. For example, multiple ESPA rings were used on a non-DoD launch of the SpaceX Falcon 9 that carried the Orbcomm OG-2 constellation of communication satellites.
Using ESPA ring technology reduces launch costs for the primary mission and enables secondary and even tertiary missions with minimal impact on the original mission.
The Livestream will start approx 15 minutes before the lift-off.
