Description

Authentic THAICOM 6 - SPACEX FALCON 9 Launch CCAFS SATELLITE SPACE Mission PATCH
Orbital-Built THAICOM 6 Communications Satellite Successfully Launched by a SpaceX Falcon 9.1.1
from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida
Monday's launch was the second in just over a month for Space Exploration Technologies, also known as SpaceX.
The spacecraft was launched on January 6, 2014, by
SpaceX
on a
Falcon 9 v1.1
launch vehicle. The payload was delivered by SpaceX to a 90,000 kilometers (56,000 mi)-
apogee
supersynchronous
elliptical
transfer orbit
that will later be reduced by the satellite builder Orbcom to an approximately 35,800 kilometers (22,200 mi) circular
geostationary orbit
. The supersynchronous transfer orbit enables an
inclination
plane change with a lower
expenditure of propellant
by the satellite's
kick motor
.
This launch was SpaceX' second
transport
of a payload to a
Geostationary transfer orbit
. .Both the
SES-8
SpaceX launch before this one and Thaicom 6 utilized a supersynchronous transfer orbit, but Thaicom 6 was at a somewhat greater apogee than that used for SES-8.
