I'm trying to find the target orbit for today's @SpaceX launch - sources differ with the apogee with both 43800 km and 63900 km listed. :/

@Cosmic_Penguin I see initial super-sync transfer orbits followed by final geostationary parking orbits: http://www.spaceflight101.com/spacex-falcon-9---eutelsat-115-west-b--abs-3a-launch-updates.html …1 Antwort 0 Retweets 0 Gefällt mir -

@Astroguyz The 63900 km figure comes from@NASASpaceflight http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2015/03/spacex-falcon-9-debut-dual-satellite-mission/ … and I know the inside source is credible....1 Antwort 0 Retweets 0 Gefällt mir -

@Cosmic_Penguin Makes sense... that's definitely a super synchronous transfer with an apogee above GEO. Will slowly circularize.1 Antwort 0 Retweets 0 Gefällt mir
@Astroguyz I actually think the 43800 km figure is correct - it fits with the stated payload weight (~4.15 t combined) and F9's performance.
