TridentSAT is part of the Tskion Deep Space Network. TridentSAT operating VHF and UHF radio operations and telemetry data for SN/G5 to relay to JAVELIN Communication Site 12 at Kennedy Space Center.

JAVELIN satellite (S/N G5) is deployed in a near-perfect geostationary orbit over Bogota, Columbia. This satellite was planned to be assigned to communicate with JAVELIN Communication Site 12 at KSC.

Project JAVELIN is a overseen by the Section for the Control of Low Earth Orbit Activities (SCLEOA), of which the latter is overseen by the DoD.

It's the Lamborghini approach to Shuttle design?

Stunning and beautiful, in both function and form!

I think it's for the Space Shuttle, a spaceplane America used in the past..

Not much free time lately, there's this thing called real-life and since a couple of weeks it's positive for me, so I'm really enjoying it!
But, Skylab-4 docked with Skylab.

How's this for frying bacon on the leading edge of the XR5's TPS?




I think this is the first time I've noticed the SCRAMs exceeding 11,000 kN of thrust on any given hop.
