I was just thinking, someone could have a ton of fun designing random mission patches, printing them up on off those programmable embroidery machines, and tossing them on e-bay ... but I am off topic.
Light weight, large fairing, big antenna? I was just thinking, someone could have a ton of fun designing random mission patches, printing them up on off those programmable embroidery machines, and tossing them on e-bay ... but I am off topic.
I assume with morale activities you mean things like free pizza and coke.

The SBIRs HEO-3 payload was shipped to the "host space vehicle program" on June 13 http://www.afspc.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123352888Is it reasonable for it to be integrated onto a "host" 6 months before launch?
Is there any history to "Belle" appearing on previous mission patches ?
Are there any launch window reported for this launch yet?

Past email replies from ULA that i have received regarding launch times for previous NROL-xx launches tend to say that due the request of the customer the times for the launch window are not going to be made public until launch week/a day or two before launch. The NROL-39 launch is currently set to occur on Thursday, 05 December 2013.
