The first Atlas V mission of the year is expected to launch from Cape Canaveral at 7pm GMT (2pm EST) on Friday 21st.
It'll be the first time Atlas V has flown in a "511" configuration - A 5.4-meter diameter fairing, a single solid rocket booster and a single RL10 engine on the rocket’s Centaur upper stage.
It'll launch a couple of "Geosynchronous Space Situational Awareness Program" or GSSAP satellites for the US Space Force.

They were so close! Catch and release.
Happy shes on a ship back home. Really hope they got lots of data on what made them decide to release, and what they can do to prevent it happening again, or at least increase chances of successful catch.
Would also be intrigued how the Graphine? heat shield performed too.
Anyway we may need to start a Rocket lab Topic, these guys are making some fantastic advancements and really pushing on.
