Suborbital launch schedule
« on: 01/03/2014 05:16 pm »
I thought it would be useful to make a separate thread to keep track of suborbital launches. This is something of a work-in-progress, if anybody knows any good sources of information, particularly on planned Japanese and Indian sounding rocket launches, contributions and corrections would be very useful.

Do we have a preliminary date for Angara-1.2PP ?
This might give you an idea:
Quoted From RussianSpaceWeb.com:

Quote
May: An Angara-1.2 rocket (a light "PP" version - from the Russian abbreviation of "first launch") to fly its first test mission from Plesetsk with a dummy payload. As of May 2012, the launch was promised in the second quarter of 2013, however by April of that year it was officially postponed to 2014. By May 2013, the launch was delayed until May 2014.

AFAIK, This mission is no longer planned to be sub-orbital as there is orbital insertion stage aboard. Originally first test mission was to fly Angara-1.1 config but minus the Briz-KM stage for a sub-orbital test. That was replaced by orbital test on Angara-1.2. Angara-1.1 is to replace conversional launchers Rockot and Strela. Angara-1.2 is to replace conversional launcher Dnepr and Kosmos-3 Launcher Family and is direct replacement for designed, but never flown Kosmos-3MU (Vzlet) which was developed by PO Polyot.

FYI I suspect that 12.077GT and 12.078GT are Terrier-Peregrine and Talos-Terrier-Peregrine flight tests respectively.
Not sure what  12.079GT is.

But there is no Angara 1.2 launch in aniks schedule.

I've put it in the list for now but with a query against it; can always be deleted if the launch turns out to be orbital.

The schedule has not been updated since 20 January 2014. you will have to ask someone with the required knowledge to update the schedule for you.

Hi, do you have any idea if we can follow the launch live of Cryofenix, that is supposed to be launched today from Esrange center in Sweden ?

Launch delayed.
Next attempt thursday (optimistic) or during the weekend (more reasonable).

Sounding rocket MAPHEUS-5:

Published on Aug 3, 2015
The MAPHEUS-5 sounding rocket was launched from the Esrange Space Center in Northern Sweden on June 30th, 2015, reaching a height of 161 miles (259 kilometers). It carried 5 experiment modules that were successfully recovered after touchdown.

The VSB-30 number for MAPHEUS 5 is V24 according to the attached report.

HIFiRE 4 was supposed to fly from Woomera in May 2015 on VSB-30 V12, but has probably been delayed due to the flight anomaly experienced with HIFiRE 7 last March. This will be the first suborbital flight from Woomera since HIFiRE 1 in March 2010. I've attached a paper on HIFiRE 4.

At SSC they plan to launch 2x VSB-30 (MAIUS1 & MAPHEUS6) between 15 Januari and 10 February.
At this moment, MAIUS1 is in a T-20 min. hold because of wrong wind conditions. This launch day the launch was planned at 9:15 UTC (10:15 CET), 10 minutes before countdown restarts SSC will give a notice.
Link: SSC esrange.insupport (Live stream)
T-10:00 minutes
Aborted due to payload problems at T-1:39. They missed the before 14:00 LT (13:00 UTC) launch window.

I thought it was time to update the sounding rocket schedule again. So here it is:

It's a lot of work to keep this schedule up to date. And it's supposed to be a global schedule.
If you have reliable sources about suborbital launches from China; India, Taiwan, enz. please post the links here, thanks in advance

SSC hasn't updated their schedule for a long time. (so I also didn't)  :-[
But Feb. 1th this safety warning was released.
Between Feb. 13 and March 4 one S31-IM (Improved Malemute) will be launched.

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
Project Janus at Capitol Technology University plans to fly two iridium SBD modems and Raspberry Pi computers into a sub-orbital altitude. The experiment is designed to see if two Iridium satellite modems can communicate in tandem from two separate payloads. Since this gear will fly above 70km for (5-min), an STA is requested for this flight.

Purpose of Operation
The experiment is designed to see if two Iridium satellite modems can communicate in tandem from two separate payloads. The equipment will work on 1616-1625Mhz (typical of Iridium L-band). The launch date of the sub-orbital rocket from NASA is scheduled for lift-off in the month of August 2018, the entire flight will last 15 minutes. With 5 minutes of communication at apogee above 70Km. The launch is via the ROCKSAT-X program from Colorado Space Grant Consortium and Wallops Flight Facility (NASA). Launch date is determined by Wallops Flight Facility (NASA) and maybe subject to change.

Requested Period of Operation
Operation Start Date:   08/11/2018
Operation End Date:   08/15/2018

Andoya Space Center: CASPER-2 & G-CHASER
have been launched Jan. 4 & Jan. 13 2019.
Both part of the CUSP GCI project. (4/9 missions ; 6/12 rockets completed)
CUSP GCI missions left to launch:
- AZURE  2x BBXI (51.001 & 51.002) ASC Apr. 2019
- ICI-5  (? IM: Improved Malemute) SvB (Ny-Alesund, Svalbard) Jan. or Dec. 2019
- C-REX-2  BB XII  ASC  Nov/Dec. 2019
- CHI  BB IX  SvB  Nov/Dec. 2019
- JAXA  SS-520 Svb  Jan.2020

Also finally a update from SSC (Esrange Space Center) DIRECT LINK
Lots of TBD launches again. (hopefully it doesn't go like last year) Four Six decided launch missions:
- REXUS 25/26  2x Imp. Orion (IO) (and possibly REXUS 23) Feb./March 2019
- SARA 4 (PERSEUS Student rocket, France) April 2019
- ATEK/MAPHEUS-8  IM/VS-30 May/June 2019 (I wonder; is this a Imp.Malemute staging to a S-30 or vice-versa)
- MASER 14  VSB-30  June/July 2019
- SPIDER 2 IM (Improved Malemute) Jan/Feb. 2020
- REXUS 27/28  2x Imp. Orion March 2020
I think the STERN DLR Student launches are note worthy:
Three launch opportunities: 2019 (Okt./Nov); 2020-1 (March) & 2020-2 (June/July 2020)

DLR MORABA also is planning to introduce two new Sounding rockets:
- IM/IO : Improved Malemute | Imp. Orion
- IM/IM : Imp. Malemute | Imp. Malemute  used for MAPHEUS-10, -11 &-12

I expected more launches from Andoya than from Esrange this year, but I'm happy to be wrong.

Let's also include the PLDspace MIURA-1  sounding rocket that should have it's maiden launch Q3 or Q4 2019 from CEDEA Spain.
I'll leave it with this. ...

SSC Esrange updated their launch schedule today. can de downloaded here
file: SSC Launch program 27 May 2020

The launch schedule: for 2020.
July/Aug. 2020 STERN 2020-1 (DLR student rocket)
Aug. 2020    Bolt-1 S31-Imp. Orion rocket
Sept./Okt. 2020  REXUS 27/28 (DLR/SSC Student experiments) 2x Imp. Orion
Okt./Nov. 2020  STERN 2020-2 (DLR student rocket)
Okt./Nov. 2020  Mapheus-9/10 2x IM/IM (IM = Imp. Malemute)
Dec. 2020  STORT SF1&2  2x Imp. Orion

That's the current schedule, but weather and Covid-19 could alter it.

And according to the DLR Raumfahrtkalender;
there is a 2th PMWE launch mission from Andoya between 1 and 15 Okt. 2020.
If I'm not mistaken, the PMWE (Polar Mesosphere Winter Echoes) use two imp. Malemute rockets.

And I found out that Euro Space Technology now builds the Mongoose 98 / CaNoRock. It launched in February from Andoya.

The bluShift Aerospace company (https://www.blushiftaerospace.com/) is planning to have the first launch of its sounding rocket Stardust 1.0 today, with a 2-3 pm EST launch window. There's a live webcast on youtube at
and I think they'll be also live on Twitter.

I couldn't find anything about them on the forum and since I'm quite new here I dont't know how this should be handled, where to post updates or whether this company/launch reuires a new thread.

Here's an article on the launches. The project name is Polar Mesosphere Winter Echoes (PMWE).

"Think shooting stars contribute to rare 'echo' - launches nine rockets to explore

Now several rockets are being launched from Andøya in the hope of finding out a particular phenomenon high above the ground."

Have any of them launched yet? Can't find too much on it.

All 9 launches took place during the weekend of 1-3 October and looking at the hazard areas map above I suppose they used T-Minus Dart rockets (which, correct me if I'm wrong, have been launched for the first time since the two flights in Koonibba last year) but that's all we know at the moment. Hopefully more news will come out in the next days.

EDIT: Actually I'm not sure that the "T-Minus" label on that map stands for the T-Minus DART rocket since T-Minus Engineering hasn't released any statement about that, but I can't think of another interpretations ("t-minus" as countdown seems too vague)

Still nearly to annoyed with the moderating team to reply here. It would be nice if they send me a PM.
About the PMWE rockets, I think there were two different sizes of rockets launched.
In 2018 the first PMWE launch compaign took place, this involved two Improved Malemute rockets. These rockets look accactly like the rendering that went along with the Linkedin post. Weirdly enough, these rockets required a smaller safety zone/ impact area than the smaller T-minus rockets.
T-minus has two sizes of rocket, the Dart (similar in capability to Viper III) and the Dart XL with more capability than the Viper II and/or V. The later motor was developed this year.
T-Minus engineering also provided launch services for the Belgium and Luxemburg CanSat competitions. And they did some launches for the Dutch military, as radar targets in the Netherlands.
AFAIK T-minus sells the DART rockets to customers they haven't launched them themselves. Darts haven't been launched between the Kooniba and Andoya campaigns.
T-minus Engineering redeveloped metrological rockets. I hope they are included in the DLR MoRaBa and NASA SRPO rocket offering soon. They are nice additions to the current vehicle options.
It's likely many Darts will launch for the Grand Challenge, project Mesosphere / Lower Thermosphere.

Swedish Space Corporation has finally updated its launch schedule (it actually happened in May but I noticed only now), meaning that rocket launch activities in Esrange will restart as soon as September with the TEXUS-57 launch:

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
UP Aerospace Inc. requests flight operation of a sounding rocket telemetry system at Spaceport America in New Mexico.

Please explain the purpose of operation:    
The launch will take place at Spaceport America in Truth or Consequences, NM between September 9th 2024 and November 7th 2024. The vehicle is expected to reach an apogee of approximately 100 km, and will be recovered within White Sands Missile Range, NM. On day of launch, starting approximately 2 hours prior to the opening of the launch window, the telemetry system will be operational. Once the vehicle is launched, the flight time is approximately 15 minutes. The telemetry system is designed to power down approximately 45 minutes after launch. Primary Frequency: 2370.5 MHz Secondary Frequency: 2382.5 MHz Emission Designator: 1M0F1D EIRP: 40 dBm Please see attached supplemental information for coordination correspondence with AFTRCC.

BADASS Instrument Testing at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center [Jan 6]

Quote
NASA’s Black and Diffuse Aurora Science Surveyor (BADASS) sounding rocket mission has completed its testing campaign at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, ahead of its launch.

BADASS is a sounding rocket mission – a suborbital rocket that flies scientific instruments into near-Earth space for short, approximately 15-minute flights. BADASS will study so-called “black auroras,” dark patches and stripes that appear within an aurora. Previous research has hinted that they may be formed by electrons going upward escaping back out into space (rather than the absence of any electrons). The visible aurora is formed by an incoming downward stream of electrons. Scientists want to solve the puzzle as to why these patches and stripes form within the visible aurora.

From Goddard, the BADASS instruments were delivered to Wallops Flight Facility, where they – along with the entire rocket payload – will be shipped to the Poker Flat Research Range in Fairbanks, Alaska, where the team aims to fly their rocket through black aurora. Onboard instruments will survey the electron populations as they fly through them to understand how and why these black patches and stripes form within the visible aurora. The mission is scheduled for launch no earlier than February 2026.
