VANDENBERG LAUNCHES SPACEX ROCKET
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. - Team Vandenberg launched its first-ever
SpaceX launch from Space Launch Complex-4 here Sunday at 9 a.m.
Col. Keith Balts, 30th Space Wing commander, is the launch decision
authority.
"I am truly honored to work with such an amazing team here at
Vandenberg," said Balts. "With safety at the forefront during all launch
operations, we highlighted our mission three times in one week, culminating
in today's historic launch with SpaceX. What I have seen in the past few
months as Wing Commander is a true testament to the professionalism and
dedication the men and women of Vandenberg have toward our mission."
30th Space Wing's 1st Air and Space Test Squadron was the lead for
all launch site certification activities at Vandenberg for SpaceX as an
Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle New Entrant. Under the authority of the
Space and Missile Systems Center, the Squadron evaluated SpaceX's flight and
ground systems, processes and procedures for this inaugural space launch
campaign for the upgraded Falcon 9 rocket.
