Incredible Spectacle Streak across the Cabo Sky for over a Minute
A special kind of Fireworks were seen in the sky of South California, America. First it seemed that some burning meteorite was coming towards the earth. But when detected, it was part of SpaceX’s useless rocket. As soon as this rocket came to the earth’s upper atmosphere, it started burning due to friction. The pieces started falling apart. All the pieces were burning. During this the speed of this rocket was about 28,156 km.
She’s breaking up, she’s breaking up!
Around 1am, Gen saw this incredible spectacle streak across the Cabo sky for over a minute. It is a spacecraft breaking at 17,500 MPH. Various parts break off the bright main mass, and separate from differential drag in the upper atmosphere. pic.twitter.com/B53sHz1axM— Steve Jurvetson (@FutureJurvetson) February 7, 2022
In 2017 when SpaceX’s rocket Falcon-9 launched on 16 March the Echostar-23 Satellite was installed in space. The launch was done from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. 34 minutes after launch, the EchoStar-23 communication satellite separated from the Falcon-9 rocket. The satellite then reached its designated orbit. Then its height was about 36 thousand kilometers away from the earth. Since then this rocket was constantly revolving in the orbit of the Earth, circling for 6 years. After circling for 6 years, 24 hours ago it appeared burning in the sky over Cabo, California, America.
As soon as this rocket came to the earth’s upper atmosphere, it started burning due to friction. The pieces started falling apart. The pieces were burning. During this the speed of this rocket was about 28,156 kilometers per hour. The people watching thought that there is a meteorite, which is coming fast towards the earth. But Later it was discovered that it was a ‘meteorite’ created by humans, which was above the earth.
Echostar-23 had to work for 15 years. Out of which 6 years have passed. it’s still working
But the Falcon-9 rocket finally arrived on Earth after 6 years. No one knows where it fell. but the experts say it is definitely visible in California but it must have fallen in the Pacific Ocean. So till now no news of any kind of accident has come from anywhere.
Falcon-9 is SpaceX’s most reliable rocket.
A satellite of 22,800 kg can be carried in the Lower Earth Orbit whereas Up to 8300 kg in geostationary orbit and Going to Mars the rover-lander-orbiter can lift 4020 kg. This rocket so far has been launched 139 times. In which it has made a successful landing back 99 times. Out of the 99 rockets, 79 rockets have been sent back into space.
