I would like to know the current location of the star motor upper stage please I found the following source about the upper stage motor. It's actually ahead of NH since the first NH TCM slowed it down a little, at least up to Jupiter, but there received less "kick" than the spacecraft did, so that NH will catch-up and overtake its engine (in a way) Jupiter Flyby: NH on 28-FEB-2007 05:41:23 UTC at 2,305,447 km Upper stage on 28-FEB-2007 01:44:19 UTC at 2,819,811 km thus 4 hours earlier and 500,000 km farther out Pluto Flyby: NH on 14-JUL-2015 11:58:00 UTC at 11,095 km (old schedule) Upper stage on 09-OCT-2015 22:42:27 UTC at 187,044,046 km V-infinity: NH 13.77 km/s, upper stage 13.33 km/s -------------------- |
