There will be no attempt to land the first stage with this one.

Are they going to try and recover the first stage again? I haven’t heard anything about it on this launch so I’m figuring they’re not.

0210 GMT (9:10 p.m. EST on Sun.)
Testing of the Falcon 9 rocket’s flight termination system are getting underway at this point in the countdown, as fueling of the two-stage launcher is wrapping up.
A final weather briefing is planned at the T-minus 1 hour point in the countdown, but no problems with weather are expected this evening.
It will take about 35 minutes for the Falcon 9 rocket to deliver the ABS 3A and Eutelsat 115 West B satellites into supersynchronous transfer orbit. Using xenon-ion thrusters, the satellites will spend the next six to eight months reshaping their orbits to reach posts 22,300 miles over the equator.

It’s funny, but when it comes to space I’m more comfortable now with metric than miles lol. I know 100km is the edge of space and so on, but would have to convert some to miles.

SECO-1, looks good. They said they’d lose video probably early.
