SCRUB: SpaceX Falcon 9 v1.1 - SES-8 - Nov. 28 - SECOND LAUNCH ATTEMPT UPDATES

[Skyrocket]

On one of the Falcon-1 launches, they had the same situation - and launched about half an hour later.

[Seer]

They are still going to try and launch again? Wow.

[Prober]

Ok, they have a redundant lite available or that it for the day?

[Jason1701]

They also had this situation on F9-1 and launched later in the window.

Ok, they have a redundant lite available or that it for the day?

Depends on what caused the abort.

[Orbiter]

First Falcon 9 launch aborted at ignition, recycled, and launched again the same window for the above.

[titanmiller]

They can lite again? Do they have multiple TEB shots per engine?

[Silmfeanor]

They can lite again? Do they have multiple TEB shots per engine?

Yes. TEA/TEB for first stage engines are ground-based.

[Chris Bergin]

She's a noisy girl when she vents like that!

[daveglo]

Recycling to T-13 min 

[russianhalo117]

That was a loud and propulsive vent there

[eriblo]

They can lite again? Do they have multiple TEB shots per engine?

Yes. TEA/TEB for first stage engines are ground-based.

As is, I believe, the He for spinning up the turbines.

[Chris Bergin]

Still safing the vehicle. No scrub called at this time, and they had asked about topping, so that's more likely to be a recycle at this time.

[Overflow]

Come'on, Falcon!

[Lar]

They can lite again? Do they have multiple TEB shots per engine?

Yes. TEA/TEB for first stage engines are ground-based.

Redundant onboard systems for at least some of the engines as there are relights.

[ClaytonBirchenough]

Mission clock back to T + 00:00:01?

[Chris Bergin]

Yep. The Recycle is just in case they can attempt again.

T-1 second was the abort time.

[ClaytonBirchenough]

T-1 second was the abort time.

T-1 or T+1?

T+1 I think...

[Ben the Space Brit]

Mission clock back to T + 00:00:01?

That's probably the actual abort time, minus the delay for the system to respond to the IU pulling the plug.

[Dave G]

T -13:00
