Getting indications of a possible delay for a few days, might be due to ASDS availability. Trying to find confirmation.

A well-placed ASDS source says the plan is to leave Sunday night in support of a launch on the 14th.

*waves*

Might be out of date.

Other possible reasons for delays include investigation into DARPA payloads and late stage loading of Starlink.

Spaceflight has posted a short video about their part of the mission (called SXRS-3), they have also posted an infographic on their website. I'm trying to figure out the list of satellites and hosted payloads based on this and a Scroochy's list from ElonX.net, but still in progress.

So here's the most probable list of Spaceflight payloads based on various sources (Spaceflight materials, ElonX.net, Gunter's Space Page, Twitter, this thread, etc.):

Microsats:
QPS-SAR 2 / Izanami - iQPS - pretty much confirmed
HawkEye 2A, 2B, 2C (Hawkeye Cluster 2) - HawkEye 360 - pretty much confirmed
Umbra-SAR 2001 - Umbra Lab - not listed as a customer, but really no other choice
YAM? - Loft Orbital - haven't seen it listed anywhere, but Loft Orbital is in a list of customers and one microsat is missing

Cubesats:
Astrocast 1.x1, 1.x2, 1.x3, 1.x4, 1.x5 - Astrocast - pretty much confirmed
PTD-1 - NASA - pretty much confirmed
ARCE 1A, 1B, 1C - University of South Florida - pretty much confirmed
Prometheus 2.10 - Los Alamos National Lab / DoD - not confirmed, but listed in STA and one government payload is needed to reach 30% listed on the infographics

Hosted payloads:
Celestis 17 - Celestis - pretty much confirmed
TAGSAT-1 / EyeStar-Tag - NearSpace Launch - it may be something else, but there is the most recent info about this one

These two would have to be on a different port than the SHERPA.

I'm almost 100% sure that at least the iQPS payload is going to be flown by Spaceflight during this mission. So Spaceflight must have contracted SpaceX to fly this satellite (or these two satellites) outside of SHERPA.

SHERPA is only carrying four microsats, so they would require multiple ports to fit all of the payloads.

I'm wondering if the payloads that were going to be on the Momentus port but not on the Vigoride are still there.

Getting indications of a possible delay for a few days, might be due to ASDS availability. Trying to find confirmation.

A well-placed ASDS source says the plan is to leave Sunday night in support of a launch on the 14th.

*waves*

The latest word is OCISLY won't be ready in time.  The new plan is to quick-turn JRTI, still aiming for a launch on the 14th.

The current timeline seems like a return to port Monday, 24 hour unload, and departure for a Thursday morning launch. Looks pretty tight.

SpaceX has got the approval to launch 10 Starlink satellites on this mission.

That makes sense since a new batch of Stralinks are planning for the 17th of January. One of the drone ships are repairing, JRTI on the way to the port and arrives on Monday or Tuesday, 1 day for unloading and 4-5 to travel to catch zone. So nowhere near T-1 would launch on the 14th of January.

There were emails sent out to payload customers earlier this week warning of delays. I can’t disclose details. But suffice to say this was not a surprise.

DARPA payload getting dropped didn't help

Highly unlikely when other boosters should be ready ahead of time.

B1063.2
53 days Nov21-Jan 14
Likely Transporter-1, launching 14 Jan

B1049.8
50 days Nov 25-Jan 14
Likely Starlink v1.0 L16

B1058.5
46 days Dec 6-Jan 21
Likely Starlink v1.0 L17

I would say late stage loading of Starlink sats  was more of a factor, but there were multiple events that contributed to a delay.
