What a crying shame. So sorry Bob. You must be very disappointed. Your Hard work and derams were essentially loaded onto a 45 million dollar bottle rocket and shot into the air and blown up. Very sad. Dave Schulpius On Nov 4, 2015 10:14 AM, "Bob Ross robertr609@yahoo.com [B9Builders]" wrote:
Bob,
That's a bummer. Heard about the launch failure on one of today's morning news shows.
Saw this on line. Near the bottom talks about the 6 CubeSat payloads.
Last launch I was hoping to see go by the Jersey shore was out of Wallops Island, VA. It was the Orbital Sciences Antares rocket that blew up right above the pad on Oct 28, 2014.
Getting into space "ain't" easy !!

Doesn't matter much nowLooks like the thing tumbled out of control. I had 2U out of a 6U cubesat. Here's much of the guts of our payload:

And here it is after integration about 2 months ago at our shop here in NM:

So cool Bob! Which one of those little guys are yours or did you work on them all? Do you have a mission patch or logo?

Dunno if anybody cares, but I have a cubesat payload going up... right about now. Countdown on hold, but flying out of Kauai, HI:

Hopefully this one doesn't get lost in space.
