Onboard is LEO Express 3\, which is a Mira OTV (Orbital Tug Vehicle) by Impulse Space. Part of the payloads is also ESA's second Earth observation Scout m ission\, HydroGNSS\, which will provide measurements of key hydrological c limate variables\, including soil moisture\, freeze–thaw state over perm afrost\, inundation and wetlands\, and above-ground biomass\, using a tech nique called Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) reflectometry. The satellite measures the signal reflected off the land\, ice and ocean from existing GNSS missions such as Galileo and GPS. Although these signals are faint\, they can be collected by a low power receiver that can be accommo dated on a small satellite in low Earth orbit making it compatible with a Scout mission. The mission will complement missions such as ESA's SMOS and Biomass\, Copernicus Sentinel 1 and NASA's SMAP. The Mauve space telescop e and 8 IRIDE satellites for Italy's ASI will also be on this flight. The booster is designated B10XX.X for this mission and will perform a RTLS (r eturn to launch site) at LZ-4.\n-\nDelayed from October.\n\nWebcast: \nhtt ps://www.spacex.com/launches\nhttps://spaceflightnow.com LOCATION:Vandenberg AFB Space Launch Complex 4\, Lompoc\, Kalifornien 9343 6\, USA END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Falcon 9 B5 • Starlink DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20251110T221200Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20251110T221200Z UID:118724286349 DESCRIPTION:A SpaceX Falcon 9 Block 5 rocket will launch a batch of 29 Sta rlink v2 Mini Optimized satellites into low Earth orbit.

The Tranche 1 satellit es (codenamed ?) on this flight are for the Transport Layer and were built by ?. The mission is designated as SDA-T1TL-A and the Falcon 9 booster is B10XX.X for this flight. The 2nd stage is equipped with a Mission Extensi on Kit. Comprising a gray band on the RP-1 tank\, extra helium bottles & b atteries\, this kit extends the life of the stage in-orbit\, allowing it t o deploy the payload directly into its operational orbit.\n-\nOnce fully o perational\, the SDA Transport Layer will consist of a proliferated hetero geneous constellation of data relay space vehicles (SVs) that provide pers istent global coverage through a mesh network comprised of communication s atellites that connect to one another and to other space vehicles and grou nd stations via optical intersatellite links (OISLs). By nature of the mes h network spanning the globe\, the Transport satellites will also be able to transmit precise position\, navigation and timing (PNT) data to enhance GPS. A-class satellites have at least four optical cross-links\, that is so they can talk to satellites that are in plane with one another as they' re traveling and they also can talk to satellites that are cross-plane or in completely different orbits. So they can maintain those four lines of c ommunication simultaneously. The B-class satellites will connect directly to the warfighters via the Link-16 military communications system. They ha ve two optical cross-links each\, so that allows them to maintain constant communication with the other transport satellites in plane. The two other nodes will be Link-16 transmitters. Link-16 is an existing tactical commu nication system used across the services primarily for air and ground syst ems to share low latency data.The first phase of SDA’s Proliferated Warf ighter Space Architecture consists of 28 satellites (Tranche 0 including 2 0 communications payloads made by Lockheed Martin and York Space\, and eig ht missile-tracking infrared sensor satellites made by SpaceX and Leidos) as a proof of concept for the missile tracking and data relay network\, fo llowed by more than 150 additional satellites to provide an initial operat ional capability. In total\, Tranche 1 will consist of 154 operational sat ellites: 126 in the transport layer developed by York\, Northrop Grumman\, and Lockheed Martin\, and 28 focused on missile warning and tracking deve loped by Northrop Grumman and L3Harris. Combining conventional tactical ra dio links\, laser inter-satellite communications\, and wide-view infrared sensors\, hundreds more SDA spacecraft could launch later as the Pentagon ramps up efforts and integrates new capabilities.\n-\nDelayed from Septemb er\, December\, Q2 and October.\n\nWebcast:\nhttps://www.spacex.com/launch es\nhttps://spaceflightnow.com LOCATION:Vandenberg AFB Space Launch Complex 4\, Lompoc\, Kalifornien 9343 6\, USA END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:(NET) Vulcan VC2S • GPS III-8 DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20251120 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20251121 UID:534244499519 DESCRIPTION:A United Launch Alliance Vulcan rocket\, designated ?\, will l aunch the U.S. Air Force’s ninth third-generation navigation satellite f or the Global Positioning System\, designated GPS III Space Vehicle 09 (GP S III SV09\, named Ellison Onizuka) into Medium Earth Orbit.
