Launch Two.
Launch Day 1, Campaign Night 2.NASA AWSOME Campaign UAF PFRR Launch Complex pad assignments are going to be 46.034 on pad 1, 46.035 on pad 2, and 52.010 on pad 4. Daily Science Launch Window starts at 23:15LT. 46 salvo current NET of 01:00LT and 52 current NET of 03:40LT. Update the 46 salvo was successfully launched and the 52 Rocket ran out of science window time.
Launch of Awesome 3! Go to 1:22:20 in the video.
Anduril Industries achieved a significant milestone last month with two successful live-fire tests of its 21-inch hypersonic rocket motor for the U.S. Navy's STANDARD Missile Program. This rapid and iterative design phase, which was completed in close collaboration with the Navy, positions Anduril to quickly transition to full scale production of this vital capability.
New Navigational Warning, after looking through I believe this may be for this launch
Russia appears to have scrubbed a planned overnight launch of its RS-24 “Yars” intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), according to report from the Ukrainian defense outlet Defense Express on May 19.Ukrainian military intelligence had warned that the Strategic Rocket Forces intended to conduct a “training-combat” test between May 18 and 19 from an unusual location: a field site near the village of Svobodny in the Sverdlovsk region, about 15 miles southeast of Nizhny Tagil.[...]Whether the launch was canceled at the pad or aborted seconds after ignition is unclear.“Even with deep modernization, any solid-fuel ICBM carries the risk of an early-stage failure,” Defense Express concluded.Earlier, satellite imagery analyzed by Defense Express revealed Russia preparing its R-30 Bulava intercontinental ballistic missile, a key component of its nuclear triad.The missile, designed for Borey-class submarines, can carry multiple warheads and has a range of up to 9,300 km. Ukrainian intelligence reported a recent Bulava test failure, contradicting Russian claims of success.
Today, Maritime Launch Services Inc. is pleased to announce a new collaboration with T-Minus Engineering B.V. to launch the Barracuda, a hypersonic test platform, from Spaceport Nova Scotia in October 2025.This mission will represent the next step in advancing Spaceport Nova Scotia’s suborbital and hypersonic testing capabilities, as Maritime Launch continues to establish Nova Scotia, Canada, as a hub for innovative space commercialization, research, and development. The Barracuda platform, developed by T-Minus, facilitates high-speed, high-altitude experiments for civil and defence applications.Maritime Launch and T-Minus Engineering will launch two suborbital vehicles that carry payloads. Operating within Canada’s existing regulatory regime for rocket launch, the vehicles are anticipated to reach altitudes significantly above the Kármán line, the acknowledged boundary of space, while achieving speeds over Mach 6. The launches will also accommodate various scientific and educational payloads for clients. T-Minus has successfully conducted launch campaigns at Esrange Space Centre in Sweden, Andoya Space in Norway and MOD Hebrides in the UK. Previous missions have enabled testing for radar tracking and supported atmospheric and environmental research missions in the ionosphere.[...]T-Minus will use its flight-proven suborbital vehicles, each configured for specific client applications and capable of delivering payloads to extreme environments. The company’s Barracuda rocket is a single-stage, solid-fuel suborbital vehicle that stands approximately 4 metres tall. It features a booster with a diameter of 200 millimetres and a payload compartment measuring 1000 millimetres. Barracuda can carry payloads of up to 40 kilograms to altitudes reaching 120 kilometres.T-Minus and Maritime Launch's suborbital launch will use a mobile launch vehicle integration building to prepare the two rockets for launch. Together, they will construct a mobile launch platform from the suborbital launch pad at the spaceport. While T-Minus has launched Barracuda many times before, this will be the first time the company has done so in North America.
This Russian missile disintegrated shortly after being launched. The debris is raining on neighboring Kazakhstan. Some Russian military bloggers say that it was a failed Oreshnik ballistic missile.There was chatter that Russia might launch an Oreshnik missile strike on Ukraine in retaliation for the destruction of the 20 Russian strategic bombers, which got wiped out during the Ukrainian operation „Spiderweb“.
