FRF/CFT completed firing portion now flight simulation running. Standing by test conductor success determination.

Those "Best Wishes messages" that JAXA collected for the upcoming H3 1st flight some weeks ago have now been sticked to the 2 SRBs of the 1st H3 rocket.

H3 Rocket today's photo] "SRB-3 with support message pasted" has been released. Please take a look.

Is there any indication of a possible H-2A launch until the end of the year?

According to Twitter accounts of people living in Tanegashima that I have followed, the payload for flight F46 (IGS Radar 7) apparently arrived on the island on October 31, followed by the H-IIA's 2 stages on November 10 and the fairing on November 15. This seems to leave a really plausible chance of it launching before 2022 is out, but the lack of announcements till now makes this a bit less likely. (This is the same for the 1st H3.)

F47 (XRISM/SLIM) has slipped into NET Q2 2023 since a few months ago.

Launch has slipped into Fiscal Year 2023 = NET April 2023.

It looks like this launch might not happen before February 2023 as local news now have the launch date of the simultaneously processing-on-site H-IIA s/n F46 with IGS Radar-7 but made no mentioning of H3's first flight; however this is not confirmed.

NET January 25, 2023 per local reports (it also says the launch time will be in the morning, so probably after 01:00 UTC).

Messages of support for the H3 rocket Todaichi 3 received from everyone 🚀🛰
The other day, I pasted it on the H3 solid rocket booster (SRB-3) ☺️

Careful work was done and it was pasted neatly 🧑‍🔧 Please see how it is ✨

Thank you very much for your message!

NHK is reporting that the launch is scheduled on February 12, 2023.

From the CEOS EO Handbook at:
http://database.eohandbook.com/database/missionsummary.aspx?missionID=630
Sun-synchronous orbit
Local Time Descending Node = 10:30

Given that SSO launches are southward from Tanegashima, and given JST = UTC + 9 hours, would the launch be ~01:30 UTC?

JAXA has officially confirmed the February 12 launch date, with the launch window being 01:37:55 - 01:44:15 UTC.

🟠 SRB-3 binding task
＃H3ロケットの軌跡

Work to connect the solid rocket booster (SRB-3) to the 1st stage fuselage was done twice 🧑‍🔧

SRB-3 once removed from the fuselage after a "cryogenic inspection" called F-0 🔥
With messages of support from everyone, it was re-attached to the 1st stage on December 26, 2022 🥹💫

One day slip for H3 rocket’s 1st flight to February 13 due to one day slip of the previous H-IIA launch that flew today:

Another slip to NET February 15 due to not-good weather forecasts (winds) and that “additional system checks are needed”.

🟠 satellite fairing
＃H3ロケットの軌跡

The fairing, which is a cover to protect the satellite, was shipped from Kawasaki's Harima Plant to the Tanegashima Space Center 🚢

The satellite fairing of the H3 rocket has a distinctive black mark on a white background 🖊
This is an advanced and sophisticated thought 😌

With four more launches of the H-IIA left before that rocket is retired, the H3 will not just fill the niche left by the upcoming retirement of the H-IIA but also be the first homegrown Japanese SLV with a height exceeding 200 feet, making it slightly taller than the soon-to-be launched Vulcan.
