EST from Space Launch Complex-41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Space Force is targeted for liftoff on Jan. ULA Atlas V rocket carrying the USSF-8 mission for the U.S. 22 is the Thick Cloud Layer Rule Tank Farm View of Atlas V beside Liquid Oxygen (LOX tank).
The overall probability of violating weather constraints for 24-hour delay is 40%, thus 60% GO The primary concerns are Thick Cloud Layer Rule and Cumulus Cloud Rule.Ī backup launch opportunity exists on Sat. Space Force meteorologists at the 45th Space Wing show a 70 percent chance of favorable weather conditions for launch.
The twin Northrop Grumman-built Geosynchronous Space Situational Awareness Program military tracking satellites GSSAP-5 and -6 comprising the USSF-8 mission are encapsulated inside the 5-meter diameter nose cone and will deliver the twin spacecraft directly to near-geosynchronous orbit approximately 22,300 miles (36,000 km) above the equator. The exact launch window has not been made public at this time
Liftoff of ULA Atlas V launch carrying the USSF-8 mission for the U.S. ULA Atlas V USSF-8 also counts as the 2 nd Space Coast launch this week following the SpaceX Starlink 4-6 on Jan. The weather outlook is decent and improved to 80% GO for ULA’s 1 st launch of 2022 from the Florida Space Coast – in the latest update. The ‘Big Slider’ version of ULA’s venerable Atlas V will fly for the first and only time in the previously unused 511 variant configuration comprising a 5 meter wide diameter payload fairing and just a single solid rocket booster augmenting the first stage. Space Force for the firm’s 1 st launch of 2022 – and its from Florida’s Spaceport! 21, carrying a twin pair of classified military tracking surveillance satellites to orbit for the U.S. Credit: Ken Kremer//ĬAPE CANAVERAL SPACE FORCE STATION, FL – The unflown ‘Big Slider’ version of ULA’s Atlas V rocket is ready to make its launch debut Friday afternoon, Jan. LISTED 9T43 is a listing category for floor heaters.ULA Atlas V rocket carrying the USSF-8 mission for the U.S. He didnt ask me to prove it was made in a 508 shop, nor did he check that the sticker saying U.L. , they don't know what they're asking for. Sure, UL 508 panel shop woulda been nice, and have their place. sticker? He goes yup! It's all good! Signed off and left. Said hey did you mean you wanted to see THIS u.l. He says that's not good enough, so I peeled a UL sticker off the back of the floor heater and stuck it inside the panel. I show him that all components were installed, properly torqued, and saved all the paperwork to show everything, wire and ferrules included were u.l. Little 2 amp din rail circuit breaker And a fuse, and it's on a GFCI circuit.įuckhead inspector comes along and demands to see the U.L. Problem solved, for about 500$ and one day of work. So I grabbed a little enclosure, put a start / stop relay and two buttons, and interlocked the relay with the overfill alarm. Had one spot where they had an overfill in an oil tank, cause they had been controlling the pump with just the disconnect, no real controls. I go around industrial areas fixing things. Yes, if only on the way that people have no fucking idea what they are asking for then they demand things be U.L. Maybe it varies by region, but here in the Upper Midwest, it's UL or nothing. I think the only likely solution to this is wider acceptance of other NRTL's. Marcon, the decision is intended to reinforce the UL's public safety mission by enhancing its growth, competitiveness, and agility in an increasingly complex global marketplace for testing and certification. UL has announced that its Board of Trustees has adopted a resolution to create a new for-profit testing and certification subsidiary, which would become a subsidiary of the existing not-for-profit parent company. I totally get the fact that self-cert can be an issue, but this just seems to have gotten out of hand. Well, at least they did not pick a whole new schema and stuck with 1, 12, 3R, 4X, etc. Self-Cert NEMA ratings were no longer acceptable. Anyone else think that the influence and control of/by UL when it comes to control panels and component approvals has gotten totally out of hand?įor me, the tipping point on this opinion was when all manufacturers of enclosures and components that penetrate enclosures had to write checks to UL to get UL Type ratings.
