Briefing over, One extra thing worth noting that wasn't noted is that the stage 1 data was zeroed in specifically on the re entry.

IDA-3 will launch on CRS-18.

He said that he wasn't sure and that he needed to check his notes. I doubt that he is correct, it's probably still on SPX-16 as it's been since July 2016.

Is there any conformation, that Overview 1A is inside Dragon. I haven´t find anything on NanoRacks or SpaceVR.

I am not really sure, if it is on board.

But Irazú, the first Costa Rican satellite is onboard.

Not sure how reliable this tweet is, but Julius Mbuvi from Kenya says that the cubesat 1KUNS-PF was onboard.

"1KUNS-PF, Kenya's first micro-satellite, is among the items in the 5800 pounds SpaceX Dragon cargo that have been launched into space, heading to the low-earth orbital lab, the International Space Station"

https://www.trendsmap.com/twitter/tweet/980929177582030850

This article from early March says the satellite will be launched in March to ISS.

"It will be sent to the International Space Station in March, before being put into service about a month later."

The University of Nairobi hasn't said anything yet, but that may be because they are waiting for the satellite to be deployed from ISS.
