Astra-DN1 Mission (LV0023) (Part 2)
ASE is targeting April 29th for the launch of DAXT’s Astra-DN1 satellite to Low Earth Orbit from Space Launch Complex 3. Yesterday’s launch attempt was scrubbed due to a low pressure indication in E2. The instantaneous launch window is available for 1 minute. A backup window is available on the 29th at the same time if needed.
Astra-DN1 is a satellite built by DAXT and was originally scheduled to launch on Auriga Space’s Messier 2, but due to a redesign is no longer able to fly on that vehicle - moved to AurigaMax.
The first stage supporting this mission is B5104 which recently supported GPS III SV02 and JucheCube-2. It will attempt an RTLS landing back at LZ-1.
