After 2 abortive attempts #SpaceX launched the Intelsat35e satellite on Wednesday 5th July
SpaceX will not attempt a landing of the Falcon 9 on this mission
Mission Overview
Space=X Falcon 9 rocket will deliver Intelsat 35e, a
commercial communications satellite, to a
Geostationary Transfer Orbit (GTO).
SpaceX is targeting launch of Intelsat 35e from Launch
Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center
in Florida. The 58-minute launch window opens on
Sunday, July 2, at 7:36 p.m. EDT, or 23:36 UTC. The
satellite will be deployed approximately 32 minutes
after launch.
A backup launch window opens on Monday, July 3, at
7:37 p.m. EDT, or 23:37 UTC.
SpaceX will not attempt to land Falcon 9’s first stage after
launch due to mission requirements.
Payload
The fourth of the Intelsat EpicNG next-generation high throughput satellites, Intelsat 35e delivers high
performance services in C- and Ku-bands. Its unique payload of C-band wide- and spot-beams enables
higher efficiency and improved throughput for demanding applications including wireless backhaul,
enterprise and mobility services in regions where weather patterns necessitate use of highly reliable Cband
spectrum. The Intelsat 35e Ku-band services include a customized high power wide beam for DTH
service delivery in the Caribbean, as well as services for mobility and government applications in the
Caribbean, trans-Europe to Africa and the African continent.
Intelsat operates the world’s first Globalized Network, delivering high-quality, cost-effective video and
broadband services anywhere in the world. Intelsat’s Globalized Network combines the world’s largest
satellite backbone with terrestrial infrastructure, managed services and an open, interoperable
architecture to enable customers to drive revenue and reach through a new generation of network
services.
