法新社華盛頓24日電)美國國家航空暨太空總署(NASA)表示,太空總署今天凌晨
發射一顆用來偵測全球二氧化碳排放量的衛星,但因攜載衛星的太空艙未能迅速與
火箭分離,這次任務已宣告失敗。
太空總署電視台的播報員狄勒(George Diller)說,「似乎在分離時出了問題」,
衛星「未能抵達軌道」。
(註: 而且好像還掉回來了...)
他又說,太空總署還在評估太空艙的位置與確實狀態如何。
他說:「凌晨的發射任務並未成功。」

NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatory satellite failed to reach orbit
after its 4:55 a.m. EST liftoff Feb. 24 from California’s Vandenberg
Air Force Base.
Preliminary indications are that the fairing on the Taurus XL launch
vehicle failed to separate. The fairing is a clamshell structure that
encapsulates the satellite as it travels through the atmosphere.
The spacecraft did not reach orbit and likely landed in the Pacific
Ocean near Antarctica, said John Brunschwyler, the program manager for
the Taurus XL.
A Mishap Investigation Board is to determine the cause of the launch
failure.
