NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 Launch: Falcon 9 And Crew 10 Are Now Moving Forward
Falcon 9 and Crew 10 are now moving forward with 1.7 million pounds of push. So far, we’re still getting good feedback on the first stage show. The flight for today has been going for 40 seconds. You also need to see bad performance lead to good performance. In order to get ready for Max Q, we are slowing down the engines.
What a great moment that was. We’re now past Max Q. That is the most weight that the truck will have to carry as it goes up. High-speed vehicle. Stage one: turn up the speed. The flight today has been going at more than 1,400 miles per hour for just over one minute and ten seconds.
And we just heard the call for one bravo, which means we’re in the second and final abort mode for the first stage and still doing well. And the group is already stopping twice. Next, a couple of events will happen very quickly one after the other. The first will be that engine chill on the back engine and second stage, which we just heard.
Next is MECO, which stands for “main engine cutoff.” This is when the nine engines on the first stage shut down before the first and second stages separate. Then, the second stage’s single Merlin vacuum engine will fire up and continue to send Crew 10 into orbit while the first stage starts its trip back to Earth. Stage separation and SES-1. Turn off the main engine.
Stage Release For SpaceX Dragon 2 Alpha
Stage release for SpaceX Dragon 2 Alpha has been confirmed. Copy and 2 Alpha. Great call outs and amazing views there on your left hand screen. You can see a view from stage one on the left side of your screen. And a crowd here in Hawthorne that is very excited. That first stage has great views of that boost back burn. along with the MBAC engine starting up on the second stage. Beautiful views.
The boost is now in its boost-back burn. It will get three burns on its way back to Earth. This is going to last for 45 seconds. The crew of 10 is still on Dragon, which is still connected to the Falcon 9 second stage, which you can see on the right. The flight for today has been going for three minutes and twenty seconds. The speed of the car is about 6,500 miles per hour.
They’re going to the space station now. It was confirmed that the boost back shut down, and it was confirmed again at the T+6 minute point. We can now see the crew of the Dragon spaceship for the first time as they make their way into orbit. Dragon and SpaceX’s main path. Still getting good calls-out. SpaceX Dragon, exact copy.
Beyond Power is the next part of Stage Two. It ends with an inspiring incel. Around nine minutes into the flight, the second stage engine stops working. Dragon has about five minutes of flight time left before it can fly freely. Some… You have some cool views on the left side of your computer. That’s the first stage rocket coming back to Earth. This is a ground-tracking camera that got these great shots.
You can see that one Merlin vacuum engine of the second stage on the right side of your screen. The show on the second stage keeps getting better. If you just joined us, welcome. They are now on Dragon, still connected to the Falcon 9 second stage, which you can see on the left-hand screen. What was in the first step is now coming back down to Earth. SpaceX Dragon copy fine.
In just under 20 seconds, that opening burn will be here. There are nine Merlin 1D engines. We will start up three of them again to help slow the ship down as it comes back into Earth’s atmosphere. Dragon and the second stage are still going over 12,000 miles per hour as they make their way into orbit and on their way to the International Space Station. The flight has been going for just over six minutes.
Dragon And SpaceX's Main Path
We saw the opening burn very quickly on the screen, and we got some great views of it from the ground, which is cool. The landing burn for the first stage will happen next, which will happen in about 30 seconds. Dragon and SpaceX‘s main path. And great shout-outs for. Yes, that’s what the team said as they continue to move into orbit.
Seven minutes into the fight today And the second stage kept firing while the first stage went back down to earth. What a beautiful view. In a moment, let’s check to see if we can see the center engine getting ready for the landing burn. That landing burn is there. Watch this. A Falcon 9. Now that the first stage has returned to Earth, the second engine will be turned off in about a minute. Now.
In this case, the second step is getting ready for the dragon separation, which should happen soon, in about 10 to 15 seconds. We are also getting ready to stabilize the second stage so that the split goes smoothly. On the left side of your screen, you can see that the crowd is going crazy.
On your screen, you can see that Dragon split up and that second step moving forward. Dragon can now fly freely. That was about a minute after we turned off the second engine and put the spacecraft into orbit ten minutes into today’s journey. It looks like there is a good gap and good rates.
The dragon is now free to fly. Some of the first pictures of Crew 10 inside the Dragon Endurance ship can be seen on the right side of your screen. Going into space is hard, but people are stronger. People can only have days like today if they choose to do the right thing over the wrong thing. Build bonds, choose to work together, and have faith that everyone in the world is good by nature.
We now have a unique view of Earth without borders and can enjoy how people are all linked. Thanks. Without you, I wouldn’t be here. This is Takuya Onishi, a Mission Specialist. Thank you very much. Thanks to NASA, SpaceX, and especially the Falcon 9 team for a smooth launch. We’re looking forward to a smooth trip to the International Space Station.
