CAPCOM passed word of the launch slip to the 13th to the crew during the evening DPC.
Best quote heard during an inspection, "I was unaware that I was the only one who was aware."

SpaceX is targeting Monday, April 13 to launch the next commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station. Launch of the Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft is targeted for approximately 4:33 p.m. EDT from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. NASA Television coverage will begin at 3:30 p.m.

A Monday launch will result in the Dragon spacecraft arriving at the space station Wednesday, April 15. Expedition 43 Flight Engineer Samantha Cristoforetti of ESA (European Space Agency) will use the station's 57.7-foot robotic arm to reach out and capture Dragon at approximately 7:14 a.m. Flight Engineer Terry Virts of NASA will support Cristoforetti as they operate from the station's cupola. NASA TV coverage of grapple will begin at 5 a.m. Coverage of Dragon's installation to the Earth-facing port of the Harmony module will begin at 9:15 a.m.

If the launch does not occur on Monday, the next launch opportunity would be at approximately 4:10 p.m. Tuesday, April 14.

This is the sixth SpaceX commercial resupply services mission and the seventh trip by a Dragon spacecraft to the station. Dragon is filled with more than 4,300 pounds of supplies and payloads, including critical materials to support science and research investigations that will occur during Expeditions 43 and 44. After about five weeks at the space station, Dragon will return to Earth filled with cargo including crew supplies, hardware and computer resources, science experiments, and space station hardware.

NASA TV Coverage Set for Sixth SpaceX Resupply Mission to Space Station

The sixth SpaceX cargo mission to the International Space Station under NASA's Commercial Resupply Services contract is scheduled to launch on Monday, April 13, from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. NASA Television coverage of the launch begins at 3:30 p.m. EDT.

The company's Falcon 9 rocket will lift off at 4:33 p.m., carrying its Dragon cargo spacecraft. Dragon is filled with more than 4,300 pounds of supplies and payloads, including critical materials to directly support about 40 of the more than 250 science and research investigations that will occur during Expeditions 43 and 44.

In addition to launch coverage, NASA also will host a series of prelaunch news conferences on Sunday, April 12, at the agency's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. All briefings, which are subject to a change in time, will air live on NASA TV and the agency's website.

During panel discussions Sunday at 1:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m., scientists and researchers will discuss the onboard science and research studies. The series of briefings will conclude with a prelaunch news conference at 5 p.m. A post-launch briefing will be held approximately 90 minutes after liftoff Monday.

Science payloads will study new ways to possibly counteract the microgravity-induced cell damage seen during spaceflight, the effects of microgravity on the most common cells in bones, gather new insight that could lead to treatments for osteoporosis and muscle wasting conditions, continue studies into astronaut vision changes and test a new material that could one day be used as a synthetic muscle for robotics explorers of the future.

A Monday launch will result in the Dragon spacecraft arriving at the space station Wednesday, April 15. Expedition 43 Flight Engineer Samantha Cristoforetti of ESA (European Space Agency) will use the station's 57.7-foot robotic arm to reach out and capture Dragon at approximately 7 a.m. Flight Engineer Terry Virts of NASA will support Cristoforetti as they operate from the station's cupola. NASA TV coverage of grapple will begin at 5 a.m. Coverage of Dragon's installation to the Earth-facing port of the Harmony module will begin at 9:15 a.m.



If the launch does not occur on Monday, the next launch opportunity would be at approximately 4:10 p.m. Tuesday, April 14.

We can call this 50% boost back.

The landing spot is half way between the end if the hazard zone (0% boost back) and the launch site (100% boost back)

Launch of the Dragon Cargo Ship to the International Space Station

April 9, 2015 – Longueuil, Quebec – On April 13, 2015, SpaceX is scheduled to launch its commercial resupply ship, Dragon, to the International Space Station (ISS) at 4:33 p.m. EDT. Canadarm2 is set to capture the cargo ship upon arrival on April 15 at approximately 7:12 a.m. EDT.

Here are the Canadian highlights of this mission: 

·         Tomatosphere: 

o    The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) is sending 600 000 tomato seeds to the International Space Station on behalf of the Tomatosphere educational project, led by the University of Guelph and Let’s Talk Science. These seeds will spend about 5 weeks in space. Following their return to Earth on Dragon, they will be distributed to approximately 18 000 Canadian and American classrooms, where students will plant them and observe their germination rates. Since 2001, an estimated 3 million students in Canada and the United States have participated in the award-winning Tomatosphere educational project. Tomatosphere fosters student learning about science, space exploration, agriculture and nutrition.

·        Osteo‑4: 

o   Thanks to the CSA’s previous investments in eOsteo, a space science experiment on bone cells, CALM Technologies, the Canadian company responsible for building the mini space laboratory, is partnering with NASA to upgrade the CSA instruments for a new experiment called Osteo‑4. This research may lead to a better understanding of osteoporosis and other diseases on Earth, and advance the search for countermeasures. The improved device will eventually be returned to the CSA, allowing Canadian scientists to pursue their research on bone loss in space. 

o   In order to upgrade eOsteo, CALM Technologies subcontracted Xiphos Systems Corporation for a data processor card known as Q6 card. According to the company’s figures, contributions from the CSA have enabled Xiphos to commercialize and sell its technology to the international space community, generating millions in additional revenues and representing more than 15 times the return on the Agency’s initial investment. 

·         JCAP:

o   Built by MacDonald, Dettwiler and Associates Ltd., this Canadian device is an adapter plate that will allow the Station’s crew to transfer spare parts from the inside of the ISS to the exterior through a sliding table in the Japanese airlock. Once outside, replacement parts can be retrieved robotically by either Canadarm2 or Dextre, thereby reducing the need for astronauts to conduct spacewalks for routine maintenance tasks.

Also of interest, CSA astronaut David Saint-Jacques will work as lead Capcom for this flight. A Capcom acts as a bridge between the Flight Control team in Mission Control and the astronauts in space.

Launch Operations Forecast

Vehicle: Falcon 9 Dragon CRS-6

Issued: 10 Apr 2015 / 1200 UTC (0800 EDT)

Valid: 13 Apr 2015 / 2033 UTC (1633 EDT)

Synoptic Discussion: A cold frontal system makes its way south through the weekend, gradually increasing moisture and instability in Central Florida. As the front stalls over Florida, clouds, showers and thunderstorms become more likely each day through Sunday. The best chance for thunderstorms will be inland each day, but there is a risk for lightning over the Spaceport as well, mainly Saturday and Sunday evenings. The frontal boundary begins to dissipate over Central Florida on Monday, but there is a threat of rain showers, thick cloud coverage and anvils drifting towards the coast from inland storms. Maximum upper-level winds are from the northwest at 55 knots near 45,000 feet.
On Tuesday the front continues to slowly disintegrate, decreasing the cloudiness and inland thunderstorm coverage. Maximum upper-level winds will be from the west at 40 knots at 45,000 feet.

We're hearing they fired up the F9, so that'll be the Static Fire. Note, it needs to be good, then for the data review to be acceptable and pass the LRR.

The front will not move much further south, but will create clouds, showers and thunderstorms in Central Florida over the weekend. Most thunderstorms will be inland each day, but there is a risk for lightning over the Spaceport as well, mainly Saturday and Sunday evenings. The frontal boundary begins to dissipate on Monday, but the threat of rain showers, thick cloud coverage and anvils drifting towards the Spaceport from inland thunderstorms remains.

Maximum upper-level winds will be from the northwest at 50 knots near 45,000 feet.
On Tuesday the front continues to slowly disintegrate and move back north, decreasing the cloudiness over the Space Coast and inland thunderstorm coverage.
Maximum upper-level winds will be from the west at 40 knots at 45,000 feet.
