the Capsule was launched from Florida early Saturday u.s. time, and should reach the ISS on Monday.
Nasa and Spacex, the company that has the contract on the traffic, have concluded that godsversionen and the manned nature of the Dragon capsule is different enough that the unmanned postponements will be able to continue despite the accident on april 20.
with responsibility for ISS, says that they, along with Spacex compared the two capsules.
In the end, we saw no change in the total measurable risk, ” he said about this weekend’s launch.
For the craft that will accommodate the astronauts, the so-called Crew Dragon, however, there remains a question mark. The copy you had intended to use for further tests, and maybe even a manned launch in the summer, was destroyed when the capsule styrraketer would be tested in april.
that is reported to have leaked by an employee of the space program, and as a spread on Youtube , you can see that the canister without warning blown to smithereens.
” No, oh no! heard they currently make in the video.
Hans Koenigsmann, manager at Spacex, said at a press conference in the week that the problem is obviously with the extra powerful styrraketer called the Super Draco to do.
Just when we’d fire the Super Draco occurred a deviation, and the vehicle was destroyed, said Koenigsmann, according to the Spacenews.com.
”confirm any cause”, but refers to a haveriutredning should be able to be ready soon. Maybe even as soon as a manned rocket launch can be planned later in the year. Spacex has previously said, to widespread scepticism, to hope to be able to shoot in the way of astronauts sometime in the second half of the year.
” I don’t want to completely rule out the current schedule, said Koenigsmann.
