Adam Varga + 123 AV January 9, 2018 The satellite, codenamed Zuma, failed to separate as planned from the upper stage of the SpaceX Falcon 9 after its launch Sunday from Cape Canaveral, Florida and is presumed lost. The satellite, built by Northrup Grumman, allegedly worth billions of dollars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Selva + 252 SP January 9, 2018 Wait, didn't they say it will launch by the end of this month? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seleskya + 50 AS January 10, 2018 They did, but they just meant sometime before the end of this month ... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vlad Kovalenko + 115 VK January 10, 2018 Well SpaceX claims that Falcon 9 did everything correctly and that published information are false. What is actually true? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Varga + 123 AV January 10, 2018 Not sure any more. I've been watching the livestream but they didn't show entire mission. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vlad Kovalenko + 115 VK January 10, 2018 Yeah, I've watched too and it looked like a successful launch to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Selva + 252 SP January 10, 2018 Of course when the livestream was censored and you haven't seen it all. That's why you could see just successful parts of this mission. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Varga + 123 AV January 10, 2018 One thing is for sure - Falcon 9 did successfully landed back to base and it's preparing for another launch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marina Schwarz + 1,576 January 10, 2018 Well, if it didn't explode at launch and reached the place it was supposed to reach, this should be counted as a successful launch. As for the success of the mission... Apparently, people are unsure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
