Elon Musk Just DEPLOYED Nanosats To WEAPONIZE Military Ops!
A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched over a hundred satellites into space on a dedicated rideshare mission called Transporter-3. The Falcon 9 rocket was launched on Jan. 13, 2022, from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida and It was the company’s second flight of the year with up to 40 more planned over the next 12 months.
So, how successful was this mission? Let’s find out!
Hey guys! Welcome back to our channel Elon Musk Evolution where we tell you all the latest news about Elon Musk and his multibillion companies. In today’s video we are going to talk all about the transporter 3 mission. And what are SpaceX’s future plans about launching numerous small microsatellites and nanosatellites for commercial and government use?

SpaceX established its smallsat rideshare program nearly two years ago, offering low-cost launches on dedicated Falcon 9 missions 2 as well as on launches of its Starlink satellites. It has attracted significant interest from both companies and government agencies. SpaceX recently launched its third mission titled Transporter-3 to launch satellites in the low earth orbit and the mission was a huge success just like the previous two missions.
So, before we discuss the transporter 3 mission let’s first look at the success of previously launched transporter mission.
The mission, named Transporter-2 by SpaceX, was the company’s second dedicated smallsat rideshare mission, after the Transporter-1 mission in January. The earlier flight carried 143 satellites, but SpaceX said the total payload mass for Transporter-2 was greater than that of Transporter-1. However, The company did not disclose specific payload mass figures for either mission.
The Transporter-2 payload manifest featured synthetic aperture radar satellites from three competing companies: Capella, Iceye and Umbra. HawkEye 360 and Kleos, two companies deploying constellations to perform radio-frequency tracking, each had satellites on this mission, as did PlanetIQ and Spire, which collect GPS radio occultation data for use in weather forecasting.
Other commercial customers included Astrocast and Swarm, which are each developing internet-of-things constellations, and Satellogic, which has a multi-launch agreement with SpaceX for launching its imaging satellites. SpaceX flew three of its own Starlink satellites on the launch, which joined 10 Starlink satellites launched into polar orbit on Transporter-1.
Deployment of the payload of 88 satellites started nearly 58 minutes after liftoff once the upper stage performed a second burn of its engine to place it into a sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude of nearly 550 kilometers. The satellites, from a variety of government and commercial customers, were released over half an hour.
