SpaceX launched the third satellite in just ... 2 weeks

All the attention in Elon Musk's space-based aerospace industry is the Falcon 9 rocket launch at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, USA.

According to TheVerge, this is also the first time that the Falcon 9 has been tasked with launching Intelsat's communications satellite on Earth's high orbit. And this will be the 3rd launch in just 2 weeks.

Previously, SpaceX made the latest two launches on June 23, 2017 at Kennedy Space Center with the task of bringing Bulgarian satellites Satat-1 weighing 3.669kg into orbit and on June 25, 2017 at US Air Force Base Vandenberg, California, with the task of Iridium-2, put some of Iridum's satellites into low orbit. And both times Falcon 9 successfully performs the task of launching the satellite and landing on the landing platform.

Unlike SpaceX's recent launches , this release of Falcon 9 will not land . This change is due to the mass and orbit of the launched satellite. Intelsat 35e, which weighs more than 13,000 pounds, is the heaviest satellite SpaceX has ever launched. At the same time, the satellite will be launched into the Earth's high orbit, located in a geostationary orbit (more than 35,000km from Earth). Due to these two factors, Falcon 9 will have to consume more fuel to bring the satellite to the destination, so there will not be enough fuel to control the missile landing on the landing platform.

And if SpaceX succeeds this week, it will be the third successful launch of the company in less than 2 weeks. Certainly, the company will make a bigger impression than any other company in the aerospace industry. But this is only the 10th launch mission of the company this year, and this is only July. Last year, the company successfully completed 8 launches. Surely, this number will increase even more this year.

Although SpaceX will not land Falcon 9 missiles during this launch, SpaceX has successfully achieved "hard to break" with missile reuse this year. With nine launches this year, the company has successfully reused 7 times this rocket and all successfully landed on company platforms off Florida (USA) or one of two platforms another landing at sea. And so far, the company has had 13 successful landings on the landing platform.

At this launch, SpaceX does not reuse Falcon 9 missiles but will use a new Falcon 9 rocket . But SpaceX is expected to try to reuse six more missiles this year, in order to achieve the goal of cutting costs for launching devices into space.

Intelsat's satellite launch mission is scheduled to begin on Sunday at 7:37 PM ET time (ie 0:37 hours GTM, in Vietnam around 7:37 AM, Monday), and will take off on 8: 35 PM ET time. However, it was only 9 seconds before the launch, the task was postponed after the computer system discovered something unstable. Unfortunately for SpaceX by Elon Musk, this is only the first attempt. And the next try will be done the next day. If the Intelsat 35e satellite is launched, the satellite along with 3 other Intelsat satellites will monitor the coverage of the Americas, Europe, and Africa.

With his previous statements about reuse of boosters, making consecutive launches in a short time, and reducing launch costs, Elon Musk has been taking them very seriously. This, promising, will push the aerospace technology industry to a new step. And perhaps SpaceX's space travel era with spacecraft will not be far away.
