SpaceX - B1046 Transport To Third Flight 08-13-2018

USLaunchReport
Published on Aug 13, 2018

We think 1046 looks great after 2 flights. Excited to see after three and more. The heat shield impressed us the most, it looks the same as new. The articulated wheels of the transporter get them thru 3 quick turns.

Last orbital elements show, that satellite has already reached GEO yesterday - very close to its final position at 108°E.
