Now, a new generation of advanced satellites that began launching Saturday will continue standing guard while also giving the U.S. military better insights into global hotspots. The Atlas 5 rocket launches SBIRS GEO-1 from the Cape. Credit: Pat Corkery/ULAThe Space Based Infrared System Geosynchronous-1 missile warning satellite, mounted atop an Atlas 5 rocket, thundered away from Cape Canaveral’s Complex 41 launch pad at 2:10 p.m. EDT after years of daunting and expensive development.The towering launcher soared into the Florida sky and set sail toward a highly elliptical geosynchronous transfer orbit where the 10,000-pound payload was successfully deployed 43 minutes later.Controllers will spend the next nine days conducting six critical maneuvers to boost the SBIRS GEO-1 satellite into a circular geosynchronous orbit 22,300 miles above the planet where it can match Earth’s rotation over the equator.Valued at more than $1.2 billion, this satellite begins the next era for warning spacecraft that continuously monitor the globe to alert the national leadership and battlefield commanders of missile launches. It evolves the orbiting system from the Cold War focus on intercontinental ballistic missiles to today’s short-range missile threats by incorporating new technologies to make quicker detections of fainter objects.»There’s a global imperative for performing strategic missile warning now and well into the future. We will always have the gold standard for missile warning,» said Brig. Gen. (s) Roger Teague, director of the U.S. Air Force’s Infrared Space Systems Directorate.»From a sensitivity perspective, SBIRS sees dimmer targets, dimmer events of interest much sooner,» Teague says. «With that information it allows us to take and disseminate events of interest much, much faster and tightens our OODA loop (Observe, Orient, Decide and Act). It allows us to make appropriate decisions and take appropriate actions much, much faster.» An illustration shows the SBIRS GEO sensor systems. Credit: Lockheed MartinSBIRS GEO-1 was built by Lockheed Martin using the company’s commercial A2100 satellite design with a 12-year mission life. It features a pair of power-generating solar arrays, two communications antenna wings that unfold and a deployable light shade to shield its sensitive infrared instruments.And unlike the previous generation of Defense Support Program missile warning satellites that have only scanning sensors, the SBIRS GEO spacecraft are equipped with both scanning and staring instruments to increase the amount of reconnaissance that can be collected.»SBIRS has the two payloads vice the one and it’s got two telescopes — one that’s able to do like a windshield wiper-type scan, that’s the scanner, and the starer is able to focus and sit there and look at any given area continuously as opposed to spinning around or scanning back and forth,» said Jeff Smith, Lockheed Martin’s vice president and SBIRS program director.The scanning instrument on SBIRS satellites will provide the global observations like DSP spacecraft have produced for decades. But the addition of the staring sensor enables the military to examine a very specific region for emerging threats and fast-moving targets.»The ability to task this system to do both global and theater missions and intelligence missions simultaneously is really the revolutionary part of this system,» said Smith.»The real warfighting advantage,» Teague says, «is the persistency of the SBIRS system, that I can persistently examine and surveille a given area of interest 24-by-7, where ever it might be needed in any part of the world, to be able to collect the valuable intelligence information so that our warfighting commanders — both theater as well as strategic — will be able to take the appropriate measures in response to any actionable information they might receive from the SBIRS systems. It really is a new era of warfighting and surveillance capability.» An artist’s concept depicts a notional constellation of DSP, SBIRS GEO and SBIRS HEO platforms. Credit: Lockheed MartinThe SBIRS system will augment and gradually replace the heritage Defense Support Program satellites over the next several years.»Last year, we celebrated the 40th anniversary of DSP. Today, we launched the next generation missile warning capability. It’s taken a lot of hard work by the government-industry team and we couldn’t be more proud,» said Gen. William Shelton, commander of Air Force Space Command.Although officials do not disclose how many DSP craft remain in operation or their orbital locations, Teague said the vintage network still does the job despite the lengthy delays in getting the new SBIRS constellation developed.»Rest assured we’ve got a healthy missile warning constellation on orbit today. We have done a lot of work making sure we are doing everything we can to properly sustain and maintain our existing assets, so that we are extracting all of the operational value out of those systems we can. DSP is meeting our nation’s strategic missile warning requirements today, and doing so very, very well. So it’s giving us an opportunity to make sure as we field the SBIRS system that it will be done so right, and we’ll get this right,» Teague said.The initial elements of the SBIRS concept were deployed as hosted payloads piggybacking aboard a pair of National Reconnaissance Office eavesdropping satellites launched on Delta 4 and Atlas 5 rockets into highly elliptical orbits in and from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California.Those two SBIRS HEO sensors of the scanning variety have built a solid foundation, officials say, that show this next generation makes the promised advancement in surveillance from space.»We’re able to see and do things now that we’ve never been able to do in our nation’s history. It represents a real quantum leap in technology when you try to compare SBIRS and DSP. Obviously for classified operational reasons I can’t get into too much detail, but that is what has created a real buzz of excitement from our operational warfighting partners as we look forward to fielding this SBIRS system. That is some real capability here that folks are itching to be able to take advantage of and dig into the data because we’re able to see so much more,» Teague said.»We get reports daily from warfighting commanders about how pleased they are with the quality of the SBIRS data with the sensors we already have on-orbit. There’s a real appetite for being able to get the GEO system with the staring sensor on orbit, to get that capability into warfighters’ hands. That’s a new capability that we don’t yet have and certainly will revolutionize and provide some real surveillance capabilities for the U.S. and our allies.» An artist’s concept of the SBIRS GEO-1 satellite deployed in space. Credit: Lockheed MartinLockheed Martin is in process of constructing three more GEO satellites and two additional HEO payloads for future launches. Engineers think the difficult development woes are resolved and the formula is set to produce the forthcoming hardware in smooth fashion.»We now believe the developmental risks are now behind us and this program will be able to proceed forward with predictable certainty and we’ll be able to deliver these systems when national security space requirements drive those need dates,» Teague said.»This program has overcome a lot challenges over the years, certainly that’s no secret. But we’ve done the testing, we’ve certainly paid the dues and we’re about to field a system the nation will be very proud of for many, many years.»Additional coverage for subscribers:VIDEO:ATLAS 5 ROCKET LAUNCHES SBIRS GEO-1 VIDEO:LAUNCH REPLAY: OUR SOUND-ACTIVATED REMOTE CAMERA VIDEO:LAUNCH REPLAY: CAMERA IN FRONT OF PAD VIDEO:LAUNCH REPLAY: VAB ROOF VIDEO:LAUNCH REPLAY: PRESS SITE VIDEO:LAUNCH REPLAY: UCS-2 CAMERA VIDEO:LAUNCH REPLAY: UCS-3 CAMERA VIDEO:WEATHER STOPS FIRST COUNTDOWN Final Shuttle Mission PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The crew emblem for the final space shuttle mission is now available in our store.

Credit: Pat Corkery/ULAThe 19-story rocket made its blastoff on 860,000 pounds of thrust heard and felt throughout the area, departing Vandenberg Air Force Base through a heavy marine layer draped over California’s Central Coast at 2:39 p.m. (5:39 p.m. EDT; 2139 GMT).The flight continued the workman-like pace for United Launch Alliance, following yesterday’s countdown dress rehearsal and fueling exercise back at Cape Canaveral on the next Delta 4 that will deploy a Global Positioning System satellite on Oct. 4, and the launch came the same day as Florida technicians began assembling the next Atlas 5 rocket to haul the Pentagon’s X-37B spaceplane into orbit at the end of October.But producing the noise and fire this day was the Atlas from California, arcing over the Pacific on a «coast-hugger» trajectory, the RD-180 main engine powered by a highly refined kerosene fuel and supercold liquid oxygen propelled the rocket south-southeastward toward an orbit tilted 63 degrees relative to the equator.Five minutes into the ascent, the first stage was shed and the cryogenic Centaur upper stage with its venerable RL10 engine lit as the four-meter-diameter nose cone jettisoned.The rocket then flew into a total cloak of secrecy, the progress of its orbit shaping maneuvers and deployment of the wide-ranging cargos occurring outside of the public eye.Hours later, however, officials announced the launch had achieved a successful outcome.»Today’s successful launch of the NROL-36 mission occurred on the same day as the national memorial service honoring American hero Neil Armstrong. The scientists and engineers developing and operating these remarkable current-day launch and spacecraft systems reflect Neil’s incredible legacy to mankind,» said Jim Sponnick, ULA vice president, Mission Operations.»Today’s launch marks the fourth and final EELV mission for the NRO’s Road to Launch 2012 accomplished in the last five months. This launch tempo is a tribute to all of the mission partners’ dedication and continued focus on mission success — one launch at a time.»Atlas 5 represents the culmination of evolution stretching back several decades to America’s first intercontinental ballistic missile. At the dawn of the space age, boosters named Atlas launched men into orbit during Project Mercury and became a frequent vehicle of choice to haul civil, military and commercial spacecraft to orbit.Atlas boosters have launched 615 times since 1957, and the Atlas 5 just celebrated 10 years of flight Aug. 21 with a record of 33 missions to orbit.This was the fifth Atlas 5 to fly from the West Coast, all occurring successfully in the past four years to deliver national assets to orbit for the country’s spy satellite agency and one mission with a U.S. military weather observatory.That frequent customer is the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office, the government organization responsible for designing and operating the intelligence-gathering surveillance spacecraft for policy makers and military forces. Credit: Pat Corkery/ULASatellite-tracking hobbyists believed Thursday’s mission would launch two satellites for the NRO, just like a previous Atlas 5 from Vandenberg in April 2011, to further refresh the Naval Ocean Surveillance System, or NOSS. «NOSS satellites track ships at sea through their radio transmissions. The first two generations, launched between 1976 and 1996, consisted of several triplets that orbited in close formation. Analysis of the difference in time of arrival of a signal at each member of a triplet enabled determination of the location of the source. Third generation NOSS accomplish the same using pairs of satellites,» said Ted Molczan, a respected monitor of spacecraft.Thursday’s launch was expected to be the sixth for this current breed of NOSS featuring satellite duos instead of the previous trio arrangement. Atlas rockets have deployed this generation over the past decade beginning with two missions from Vandenberg that went up in 2001 and 2003 aboard Atlas 2AS vehicles, then two flights from Cape Canaveral that flew on the Atlas 3B in 2005 and an Atlas 5 in 2007, then the Vandenberg mission 17 months ago.It was unclear if the latest duo was replacing an aging set of satellites in the NOSS constellation or augmenting it.This was the fourth of four launches for the NRO in 2012. A Delta 4 put a radar-imaging satellite into a retrograde orbit from Vandenberg in April, an Atlas 5 carried a geosynchronous data-relay bird in June from Cape Canaveral, followed by a Delta 4-Heavy with a clandestine cargo also flown from the Cape in late June.»Any NRO launch is critical to national security, delivering new intel capabilities out to the warfighters,» said Lt. Col. Dan Gillen, commander of the 4th Space Launch Squadron that oversees Atlas 5 and Delta 4 rocket operations at Vandenberg. «Even though we are winding down some operations Afghanistan and Iraq, the need for intel is still growing.» Credit: Pat Corkery/ULAOnce the Centaur deployed its primary payload, the upper stage maneuvered to a lower altitude where 11 miniature satellites built by universities, the military and a national lab were ejected from 8 deployers all packed into one box-like container built by the Naval Postgraduate School. That structure, dubbed the Operationally Unique Technologies Satellite, or OUTSat, rode on a bracket on the aft-end of the stage next to the RL10 engine where a helium bottle previously resided.Available performance on this mission made it suitable to fly the secondary cubesats and deliver them into a useful orbit.»We have long recognized that there are benefits and efficiencies to be gained through rideshare in space launch,» said Betty Sapp, director National Reconnaissance Office. «These benefits include opportunities to conduct scientific research and demonstrate and apply emerging technologies through the use of small satellites.»Four flew through NASA’s Educational Launch of Nanosatellite program that works with schools to give students real-life experience in the space business. Institutions launching their scientifically-meaningful hardware on this rocket via ELANA are the University of California, University of Colorado at Boulder, California Polytechnic State University and Morehead State.In addition, the NRO’s Mission Support Directorate is enabling 7 satellites to fly from the Army Space and Missile Defense Command, the Aerospace Corp., the University of Southern California and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.Objectives of the various spacecraft range from testing future satellite technologies, probing space weather and observing the cosmic X-ray background.Next up for Vandenberg, the base will host two more Atlas 5 launches early in the year with a Landsat Earth-resources spacecraft on Feb. 11 at 10:04 a.m. local time, NASA says, and the commercial GeoEye 2 Earth-imaging satellite will follow in April.Gillen’s squadron at Vandenberg also has a much-anticipated Delta 4-Heavy rocket launch for the NRO slated for next August.About the authorJustin Ray has been editor of Spaceflight Now since its inception in November 1999.

The Atlas rocket first stage is erected for the LDCM mission. Credit: NASA/Roy AllisonThe United Launch Alliance booster is scheduled for blastoff in February carrying a remote sensing spacecraft known as the Landsat Data Continuity Mission, or LDCM.The satellite will continue the 40-year legacy of monitoring the Earth’s environment from space through the Landsat series of craft. This latest bird, built by Orbital Sciences Corp., is equipped to obtain medium-resolution multispectral digital images of the global land surface, coastal shallows and coral reefs through the Operational Land Imager and the Thermal Infrared Sensor instruments.LDCM is a collaboration between NASA and the U.S. Geological Survey to further the Landsat data records that began in 1972 with Landsat 1 and five subsequent follow-on satellites over the decades.To keep supplying that data archive, LCDM was conceived in 2005 and now stands just two months from launch into a 438-mile polar orbit.The satellite completed its environmental testing on Nov. 23, undergoing rigorous testing inside a thermal vacuum chamber at the Orbital’s facility in Gilbert, Arizona. The tests subjected LDCM to the high heat and low temperature swings it will experience in orbit.Plans call for the satellite to arrive at Vandenberg on Dec. 19, beginning its own launch site campaign before joining up with the Atlas 5 rocket at the Space Launch Complex 3-East pad a couple of weeks before liftoff.The rocket’s on-pad assembly occurred in early October as the bronze first stage with its RD-180 main engine was erected, followed by the interstage adapter and then the white Centaur with the cryogenic RL10 engine.On Tuesday, crews retracted the mobile service gantry away from the rocket around 8 a.m. local time and began loading the the supercold liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen around 10:30 a.m. PST.Clocks counted all the way to T-minus 0 seconds before cutting off as planned, ending the rehearsal at the pretend 1:40 p.m. local launch time.Called the Wet Dress Rehearsal, the WDR provides the launch team and mission managers with a realistic run-through of the countdown timeline and decision-making calls. It also gives engineers a chance to uncover any technical problems that need resolved before the actual launch attempt.The launch is dubbed AV-035 in the Atlas lineup. It will follow the Air Force’s X-37B deployment flight planned for next week and the late January mission carrying NASA’s Tracking and Data Relay K satellite, both of which will originate from Cape Canaveral, Florida.STS-134 PatchFree shipping to U.S. addresses!The final planned flight of space shuttle Endeavour is symbolized in the official embroidered crew patch for STS-134.

As Chinese stock markets tank, and the contagion spreads, policymakers are looking to minimize regulatory arbitrage which has allowed small and medium banks to reduce capital requirements by nearly 75%, as the size the marginal banking system continues to grow. The move by Chinas authorities is the right one, the real question is, will they be able to manage such a complex and leveraged system without screwing up.A Shenzhou spacecraft carrying a crew of three, including China’s second female astronaut, streaked into orbit Tuesday, heading for a prototype space station module for a planned two-week mission.
