NASA, the most important buyer of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket. In 2010, the first rocket buyers from the company were NASA. Then Falcon 9 went to 3 missions. Luxemburg's SES starts operating on the first spacex. After the success of 2013, SES last year gave support to SPEx.
Bangladesh is sending satellite to space satellite using SpaceX's most advanced rocket Falcon-9 block-5. This rocket has passed all the tests of NASA and the US Department of Defense. For the first time, 10 rockets can fly. Previous rockets were capable of flying only 2 to 3.
Plenty of companies like NASA and SES have put their trust in SPACEX. Speaksax is expected to start something new by launching satellites weighing 3,500 kg in Bangladesh. The company's 54th Falcon-9, however, has the hope of a new chapter.
But how is the buyer of the spacex? Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's Information and Communication Technology Advisor Sajeeb Wazed Joy said, 'In fact, how it happened. Basically it was the choice of SpaceX. And we agree to it. '
The son of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina also said that the BTRC called the tender. They were looking for two rockets and backups for the Bangabandhu-1 satellite. According to the tender, the airline has been listed as the Arenas Space Rocket for Aircelainspace Arrayana Five for carrying the satellite. The second choice was SpaceX's Falcon-9.
But Bangladesh wanted to launch the satellite at certain times. This timeframe brings SPACEx to a convenient location. In the face of protests, Arianspace lent their three missions in the two months. Arianespeace could not confirm this, although Bangladesh wanted to launch the satellite on December 16, 2017.
The Aryan-5 rocket can basically carry two satellites. An over and a small one down.
Sajeeb Wazed said that due to the size of our satellites, they could be installed only in the lower part of the A5-5 rocket and they could not guarantee our time. As a result, we look for alternatives. SPACEX offers us to use Falcon-9 Block-5, we agree to it.
However, SPACECO did not launch the satellite at the time of BTRC's offer. Although they were successful in 187 missions in 2017, they could not sail the satellite of Bangladesh. Wazed said, "Everyone was surrounded by Victory Day. I said that it would not be possible. Still try it. '
There are 26 Ku-Band Transponders and 14 C-band Transponders in the Bangabandhu-1 satellite. This will improve the television and broadband communication.
During the United States, it was scheduled to launch satellite from Kennedy Space Center at any time between 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm. It is learned that after 8 days of launch, the satellite will be replaced by orbital slot and send signal. If everything is okay, the satellite business will start from mid-August
