  form their own network using laser links that operate at up to 100 gigabi
 ts per second. They are equipped with the company’s self-developed AI te
 chnology\, which utilizes up to eight billion parameters\, and remote sens
 ing payloads. This initial constellation can process five peta operations

 as possible inside the rocket fairing in two parallel stacks. For maneuver
 ing in orbit\, each satellite has an electric hall-effect thruster burning
  krypton to generate 20 millinewtons of thrust\, with a specific impulse o
 f 1385 seconds. The initial tranche will use 1296 satellites. Ultimately\,
  the Spacesail constellation will consist of more than 14000 low-orbit bro
 adband multimedia satellites. Kinetica 2 (Lijian 2) was developed by CAS 
 Space (a.k.a. Beijing Zhongke Aerospace Exploration Technology Co.)\, a sp

DESCRIPTION:An Indian Human-rated Launch Vehicle Mark 3 (HLVM3) rocket wil
 l launch the Gaganyaan spacecraft on its first uncrewed orbital test fligh
 t for ISRO\, designated G1. Vyomitra\, a humanoid robot\, will be aboard G
 aganyaan. The mission will test the crew module in a 400km orbit\, orbital
  maneuvers and its reentry and recovery. The HLVM3 is the human rated vers
 ion of the LVM3\, which is equipped with a launch abort system (LAS) and w
 ill use the upgraded C32 cryo stage.\n-\nDelayed from December 2020\, Q1\,

SUMMARY:(NET) Super Heavy/Starship B3 • TBD
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20261108
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20261109
UID:235123228184
DESCRIPTION:A SpaceX Super Heavy rocket will launch a Starship prototype o
 n its 15th and second? orbital flight\, designated IFT-15 (Integrated Flig
 ht Test). Starship is equipped with Raptor 3 engines and will perform an o
 rbit insertion burn\, fly at an altitude approximately 275 km above Earth 
 and complete approximately six orbits around the planet over the course of
  a nearly 10-hour flight\, including a payload deployment of 26? Starlink 
 V3 satellites followed by deorbit burn\, for a splashdown near the coast o
 f Chile. Super Heavy will perform an ocean landing in the Gulf of Mexico. 
 It will have an integrated vented interstage/forward dome\, three grid fin
 s instead of the prior four\, as well as the use of the grid fins as catch
  points. The booster/ship combination is designated as B22/S42\, both of t
 he Block 3 variant.\n-\nStarlink v3 satellites are built by SpaceX and hav
 e a reported launch mass of ~2 tonnes. The mass-produced spacecraft carry 
 a communications payload using the Ku and Ka frequency bands\, plus E-band
  for backhaul\, which will allow Starlink to provide ~10x more capacity pe
 r satellite than earlier iterations. They also employ optical inter-satell
 ite links\, phased array beam forming and digital processing technologies.
  Like the v2 satellites the v3 sats are equipped with more powerful Argon 
 Hall thrusters. Starlink sats are able to track on-orbit debris and capabl
 e of autonomous collision avoidance. All satellites will be equipped with 
 anti-reflective coatings.\nThe updated Starlink network architecture has 1
 584 satellites at 550km altitude and an inclination of 53 degrees\, 1584 s
 atellites at 540km and an inclination of 53.2 degrees\, 720 satellites at 
 570km and an inclination of 70 degrees\, and 520 satellites at 560km and a
 n inclination of 97.6 degrees. The initial FCC application covered 4408 St
 arlink satellites. Eventually SpaceX will launch and operate a follow-on n
 etwork of 7518 additional Starlink satellites transmitting in V-band frequ
 encies. In the final deployment stage an additional 30000 Starlink satelli
 tes might get orbited.\n-\nDelayed from late October.\n\nWebcast: \nhttps:
