Northrop Grumman’s uncrewed NG-19 Cygnus cargo spacecraft is set to launch atop the final Antares 230+ rocket from Wallops Island, Virginia.
Launch is currently planned to take place in the summer of 2023. The spacecraft will send several thousand kilograms of supplies for the International Space Station’s seven-person Expedition 69 crew.
Orbital Velocity is designed to be "living time capsule" about the International Space Station.
This project is an attempt to bridge an information gap between space agencies and companies, as well as a public that supports space endeavors with their tax dollars. Despite the importance of the space station, the general public doesn't always know what is happening aboard this amazing complex on a regular basis. Research being conducted isn't always readily available and what information is out there can sometimes be difficult to understand. Some people aren't even aware there is an active space program, let alone a space station.
Orbital Velocity hopes to change that by building a database of information through blogs, a website, small videos and longer documentary-like series'.
