Ukufunyanwa kwakhona kwe-SpaceX Falcon 9 booster.IsithubaX Emva kokusetwa kwerekhodi i-2020 ephawulwe ngokusungulwa okungama-24, kubandakanya neenqwelomoya ezimbini ezizihambelayo ukuya kwiSitishi saMajukujuku saMazwe ngaMazwe, i-SpaceX inezicwangciso ezibalaseleyo ngakumbi ze-2021. Kwaye iyaqala ngokukhawuleza, kunye nomsebenzi werokethi wokuqala wonyaka ocwangciselwe ukuqhushumba ngokukhawuleza kule veki.
Ukuqaliswa kwerokethi yokuqala yenkampani yasemajukujukwini kulo nyaka kuya kuba yimishini yesathelayithi yokuhambisa isathelayithi yoqhakamshelwano kwinkampani yaseTurkey, ejonge ukwakha iinkonzo zosasazo kumabonakude eYurophu, eMbindi Mpuma naseAfrika.
Imishini yayiqale yacwangciselwa uNovemba kwaye kamva yatyhalela emva ngoMvulo, kuvulwa iwindow ukusuka nge-8: 30 ebusuku. ukuya ku-12: 29 kusasa kwisikhululo soMkhosi wasemajukujukwini eKapa eFlorida. Ngexesha lokushicilela, ukumiliselwa kuye kwalibaziseka kwakhona,ngoku ka I-Fox 35 iOrlando.
(Ihlaziywe ngoJanuwari 6: I-satellite mission icwangciselwe ukumiliselwa ngoLwesine ngexesha leeyure ezine zokuqaliswa kwefestile ukuqala nge-8: 28 pm ET.)
Umphathi we-SpaceX u-Elon Musk uzibekele iinjongo eziphakamileyo zokuphehlelela ii-48 Falcon mission kulo nyaka. Oko kuthetha ukuba inkampani kuya kufuneka ibhabhe irokethi phantse veki nganye, ngaphandle kovavanyo lweeprojekthi ezingezizo zeFalcon, ezinje ngeStarship.
Imisebenzi emithathu eqingqiweyo kwi-ISS
I-SpaceX icwangcise umsebenzi wayo wesibini we-ISS, i-Crew-2, entwasahlobo, ithumela oosomajukujuku abane abavela kwiZiko laseKennedy laseFlorida. Umsebenzi wesithathu, obizwa ngokuba yiCrew-3, ucwangciselwe ukuwa.
Ekupheleni konyaka, i-SpaceX ikwaceba ukubhabha i-ISS yabucala yokuqalisa okusekwe eHouston Indawo yeAxiom , bephethe abasebenzi abane, kubandakanya uMichael López-Alegría, owayesakuba ngusomajukujuku we-NASA ngoku osebenzela i-Axiom, owayesakuba ngumqhubi wenqwelomoya e-Israel u-Eytan Stibbe, kunye nabakhenkethi ababini abaza kubhengezwa.
I-Starship yokubhabha kufutshane neMars
I-Starship SN9 kunye ne-SN10 zilungele uvavanyo kwindawo ye-SpaceX's Boca Chica.RGVAerialPhotography / Twitter U-2021 uya kuba ngunyaka obalulekileyo we-SpaceX's Starship, isiphekepheke esikhulu esiza kuthi ngenye imini sibhabhe siye enyangeni, eMars nangaphaya.
I-SpaceX sele ineeprototypes ezimbini ezintsha, i-SN9 kunye ne-SN10, emi kwindawo yokumilisela inkampani yaseBoca Chica, kwindawo yokumilisela iTexas. UMusk unayo wathetha ukuba ezi prototypes zimbini zingabhabha ngaxeshanye ngaxeshanye kwiiveki ezizayo.
Nge-7 kaDisemba, i-Starship prototype yesibhozo, i-SN8, yagqitywa ngempumelelo kuvavanyo oluphezulu lokuqala, ukubhabha kwiikhilomitha ezili-12 kwaye kubuya phantse kwinto enye.
Ukuba yonke into ihamba ngokwesicwangciso, ubuncinci enye ye-Starship prototype iya kufikelela kwi-orbit ekupheleni konyaka.
Bukela i-Starlink Constellation ukukhula
Inkonzo ye-intanethi esekwe kwisathelayithi ye-SpaceX, i-Starlink, ngokuqinisekileyo lelona candelo likhula ngokukhawuleza ngaphakathi kwenkampani yendawo okwangoku. Kwi-2020, i-SpaceX isungule iibhetshi ezili-16 zeesathelayithi zeStarlink kwaye yaqala inkonzo ye-beta eMntla Melika.
Ukuphehlelelwa ngakumbi kulindeleke kwi-2021 ukuphucula inkonzo esele ikho kunye nokwandisa ukuhanjiswa kwihlabathi liphela. Ukucwangciswa ezintandathu kucwangcisiwe ngoJanuwari nangoFebruwari, nangona imihla ngqo yokwazisa ingekamiswa.
