T.S. Kelso has posted a list of 89 deployments for this mission along with the precise planned launch and deployment time.
CelesTrak has pre-launch SupGP data for the #Transporter-9 launch from Vandenberg SFB on 2023-11-11 at 18:48:59.990 UTC: https://celestrak.org/NORAD/elements/supplemental/table.php?FILE=transporter-9. Deployment of 89 satellites is set to occur from 19:43:01.189 UTC to 20:14:30.890 UTC. SupGP data is valid from epochs (deployment).
You'd think having the deployment list would clear things up, but...I wish I had the D-Orbit manifest, and knew what if anything is on SpaceVan001.Is IRIS C2 Taiwanese? From Satoro Taiwan?I assume TIGER 5/6 are for OQ Technologies?What are AETHER1/2? What are ORBASTRO TR1/PC1?Only 10 of the 11 LEMURS are listed (at least as LEMURS)Is Platform-5 the same as Barry-1?What is B1B2?Are all the US Government payloads actually listed? Are some of the things expected to be on this flight actually on the other flight at the end of the month?

Quote from: NanoAvionics tweet#SmallSats come in all shapes and sizes, and the 3 satellites we manufactured for our customers launching with SpaceX on Transporter-9 NET November show the difference: 🛰️ The 6U "NinjaSat" for @riken_en and Mitsui Bussan Aerospace is the size of a shoebox with a mass of around 10kg. Yet, it will study tiny black holes and supernovae known for their space-time-bending heaviness.🛰️ The 16U high-resolution nanosatellite for @PROMETHEE_Space is the size of a microwave weighing nearly 30kg. All that mass will deliver 1.5-meter resolution imagery in 7 spectral bands for Promethee's data platform.🛰️ The washing machine-sized MP42 #microsatellite weighing well over 100kg will put its weight into demonstrating our undisclosed customer technologies in orbit.[Oct 31]

I see no evidence of the Alba Orbital Cluster 8 payloads aboard Transporter-9. Are they aboard 425 Project EO/IR rideshare instead?Quote from: gongora on 05/16/2022 02:20 pm Alba Orbital ROM-3 (2P, RomSpace, Romania) Space ANT-D (1P, SpaceIn, Malaysia) HADES-D (1.5P, AMSAT EA, Spain)
I assume TIGER 5/6 are for OQ Technologies?
Is Platform-5 the same as Barry-1?What is B1B2?
Hello, we are always grateful for your passionate dedication.We are the team developing the JINJUSat-1 satellite to be mounted on TR-9.From the TLE information announced this time on celestrack,We confirmed that the name 'Wedgieride' is added in front of our satellite name. What does this mean?thank you
<snip>I'm wondering about the "WEDGIERIDE" dispenser that Momentus is using.<snip>
SpaceX is targeting Saturday, November 11 for Falcon 9’s launch of the Transporter-9 mission to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The 55-minute launch window opens at 10:49 a.m. PT. If needed, there is a backup opportunity Sunday, November 12 with the same window.A live webcast of this mission will begin on X @SpaceX about 10 minutes prior to liftoff. Watch live.The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched NROL-87, NROL-85, SARah-1, SWOT, Transporter-8, and six Starlink missions (=B1071.12). Following stage separation, Falcon 9 will land on Landing Zone 4 (LZ-4) at Vandenberg Space Force Base.Transporter-9 is SpaceX’s ninth dedicated smallsat rideshare mission. There will be 90 payloads on this flight, including CubeSats, MicroSats, and orbital transfer vehicles carrying spacecraft to be deployed at a later time.
Parts of this mission timeline are, uh, interesting.
