Individual starts in detail
2012: CRS-1, Cassiope
At the start of the first CRS mission on October 8, 2012, engine number 1 of the first stage failed after one minute and 19 seconds. Due to the extended burning times of the first and second stage, the Dragon spaceship could still be deployed on the planned path. For the onward flight into the planned orbit of Orbcomm FM44, safety rules for the ISS would have been violated. So it was deliberately launched in an unplanned lower orbit. Orbcomm FM44 has now re-entered the earth's atmosphere and burned up .
The research satellite Cassiope was launched on September 29, 2013 with the first Falcon 9 version 1.1. It was also the first Falcon launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base . The reignition of the second stage, which was planned for the first time at this start and which was absolutely necessary for the next planned start into a geostationary transfer orbit, could not be carried out successfully. However, this had no effect on the CASSIOPE mission, as the test ignition took place after the payload had been released.
2013: SES 8
With the communications satellite SES 8 , on December 3, 2013, a Falcon 9 brought a satellite into geostationary transfer orbit (GTO) for the first time . The second stage had to reignite its engine after a free flight phase in order to get into the highly elliptical geostationary transfer orbit (GTO), but this has not yet been successfully tested. The payload then maneuvers itself with its own engines from the GTO into its geostationary target orbit ( GEO ). The first attempt at take-off on November 25th was canceled a few minutes before take-off due to technical problems. The second attempt to start on November 28th also failed; the engines fired on the launch pad, but were automatically switched off again due to an uneven build-up of thrust. The rocket was held on the ramp by the retaining clips and was not released. The launch then took place on December 3, 2013 and the planned orbit was 295 km × 80,000 km × 20.75 ° inclination , the actual orbit on which the payload was deployed was 395.4 km × 79,325.3 km × 20.51 °.
2014: Thaicom 6, CRS-3
As with SES 8, during the second GTO launch with Thaicom 6 on January 6, 2014, the perigee of the orbit actually reached deviated noticeably from the previously specified target orbit. Before the start, an orbit of 295 km × 90,000 km × 22.5 ° was specified, but according to NORAD an orbit was reached with a perigee about 80 km higher: 375.9 km × 89492.2 km × 22.46 °. However, in a press release published after SpaceX launched, it was reported that the target orbit published before the launch had been hit exactly. However, the departure from the orbit did not have any negative effects on the payload; the increased perigee is energetically even more favorable for the satellite to reach its geostationary target orbit.
During the third regular ISS supply flight with the dragon capsule on April 18, 2014, the first stage of the Falcon 9 installed the extendable landing legs for test purposes for the future planned reuse of the first stage. After the first stage was disconnected, it rotated 180 ° with the engines pointing in the direction of flight and re-ignited three of its main engines in order to reduce speed and to reduce the stress on re-entry . The step fell in a controlled manner towards the ocean with the engine block ahead; shortly before hitting the water surface, the middle engine was ignited to slow down and the landing legs extended. The step touched the surface of the water in a controlled manner, but was then probably destroyed by the heavy swell. Because of the adverse conditions at the site of the ditching, no ships were able to observe the landing or recover the step, but the telemetry data or a video that sent the step during the descent confirmed that the test was successful.
2015: DSCOVR
When the Earth observation satellite DSCOVR was launched on February 11, 2015, the upper level achieved the highest speed of a Falcon 9 to date. In order to inject the payload into a highly elliptical transfer orbit, the apogee of which was over 1,000,000 km, the stage had to almost reach escape speed . From this highly elliptical transfer orbit, the payload maneuvers independently to its target orbit, the Lagrange point L 1 . The start was canceled and postponed several times due to bad weather and technical problems before the start on February 11th. However, the planned landing of the first stage on a platform on the high seas could not be carried out due to strong waves.
2018: CRS-16
The start of the ISS supply flight CRS-16, initially planned for December 4, 2018, was postponed by one day in order to replace spoiled mouse food in the cargo. The take-off was successful on December 5th, but on the return flight of the Falcon 9 first stage to the landing site - shortly before the braking by the reentry burn - the hydraulics of the grid fin control failed. This caused the rocket stage to roll . An automatic security system made sure that she stayed away from the land. A few kilometers off the coast of Florida, she hit the sea in a controlled manner and fell over. The Falcon 9 first stage also has a terrain map with structures that it would avoid if possible in the event of a late landing problem.
