SpaceX Resupply Mission
Why Students Are Disappointed Over SpaceX Explosion
KJ Belonio | | Jul 02, 2015 06:58 AM EDT |
The unmanned SpaceX rocket was on a resupply mission to bring a SpaceX Dragon capsule filled with 4,000 pounds of supplies, 30 student projects, two HoloLenses, as well as a docking adapter for the ISS that would allow for future commercial crewed capsules to dock with the station. Unfortunately, the rocket had broken up completely after launch Sunday, at an altitude of about 34 kilometers. Aside from the supplies, the rocket also carried scientific experiments created by students. However, the students, who spent months working on the science experiment, were disappointed because their dreams were dampened by the unmanned SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket explosion.
