Expedition Contracted for 5 missions to Eris Space LSS
Expedition Aerospace was recently contacted by Eris Space to launch 5 Cargo and Crew missions to the Lovell Space Station starting this fall.
These missions are to demonstrate the Calypso Capsule ability to dock both crew and cargo to the station. Missions will first start off with Cargo and then crew. Pending further approval.
Expedition Aerospace has already planned a LEO (Low Earth Orbit) Mission to the LSS with no crew or Cargo as a demonstration of the new CalypsoX (Calypso NeXt Gen)
With these missions. Expedition and Eris Space have both agreed to a contact that will install NOVASAT to the station this fall once the constellation gets up and running. This will allow high speed contact with the ground even when not above ground stations.
These missions are planned to last 2 months on the station before coming back to earth where the capsule will be refurbished and reused.
Integrity Program
Expedition Aerospace is proud to introduce the Integrity Program. This new program will bring humans to the moon and beyond.
Launches of Integrity will use two spacecraft. The Endeavor rocket and the Tenacity rocket.
First the Endeavor rocket will launch a modified Calypso capsule to a Low Earth orbit where it will dock with the Tenacity upper stage and make it's way towards the moon. Once at the moon, The Tenacity upper stage will descend to the lunar surface where it will touchdown and stay for around 2 days.
This new program will bring humans back to the lunar surface and will help us to stay.
The Integrity program is set to launch later this year on a test flight to the moon.
ENDEAVOR FLY'S AGAIN NET APRIL 4TH
Expedition Aerospace is targeting to fly Endeavor once again NET April 4th. This is a 30 day window
that goes from April 4th to May 4th.
Flight 5 hosts many new changes towards Endeavor. Including the ability to propulsive land itself.
Flight 5 will attempt a landing on our droneship "The Chances are never zero". Placed out in the Gulf of America shortly after liftoff.
The mission, Dubbed "What comes up, Must come down" will fly Celestial Space Systems CSS Weather Sentinel 1 satellites to a Highly elliptic orbit around the Earth.
The mission will launch from LC-1 at the Matagorda Space Center in Texas. The Launch window opens at 1:00pm local time with a backup launch attempt the next day
One of the main goals of Flight 5 full mission success.
"Version 2 holds many new hardware and software. Its Basically an entirely new rocket at this point."
-Kad, CEO and Chief Engineer for Expedition Aerospace
Flight 5 is a huge leap for Expedition Aerospace and our entire team has worked day and night to ensure this mission goes at plan. The booster return is our side goal as we have never attempted something that huge.
"We would be lucky to even make it to the landing burn" says Vice President of Expedition Aerospace GoForLaunch13.
At the end of the day. Flight 5 will be one of our most important missions yet and we are glad to have you along.
EXPEDITIONS NEXT STEPS TOWARDS THE FUTURE
The Intrepid Lunar lander is Expedition Aerospaces biggest project yet. This mission will be launching on the Theia rocket from GSST in the coming months.
This mission will carry 5 payloads to the lunar surface. Including payloads by Expedition Aerospace and many other company's.
Intrepid is currently at our headquarters in Angleton, TX and is preparing to make it’s trip to Rodriguez Key for integration to the Theia rocket in the coming weeks.
Once Intrepid launches. It will be sent towards a Highly elliptic orbit. Over the course of 6 days. Intrepid will raise it's orbit with a kickstage. Once the lander arrives at the moon. It will spend 5 days in orbit. Testing systems in preparation for it's landing at Leibnitz Mountains near the south pole.
