So far, these missions are in the launch campaign book of 2012 (might be changed):
Tycho Deep Space (pad abort test)
Launch window: June 1- 15, 2012
Test-range: ESD139, Baltic Sea
Trajectory estimates: apogee 1 km. downrange max 1 km.
Launch platform: Sputnik: 0-degree launch pad.
General info: Our new space capsule Tycho Deep Space will be launched using the LES-engine. Three main parachutes will provide us with a controlled capsule splash down at sea followed by recovery operation of Tycho Deep Space and the LES-engine.
SMARAGD-1
Launch window: July-Sept 2012 (specific launch window to be announced)
Test-range: ESD139, Baltic Sea
Trajectory estimates: apogee 20 km. downrange max 20 km.
Launch platform: Sputnik: 10+ degree launch angle.
General info: Our new 2-stage rocket SMARAGD will be launched to test long range communication, separations systems and much more. This SMARAGD-1 launch will be short fueled deliberately to have a controlled test and stability verification before going all the way.
SMARAGD-2
Launch window: July-Sept 2012 (specific launch window to be announced)
Test-range: ESD139, Baltic Sea
Trajectory estimates: apogee 60 km. downrange max 40 km
Launch platform: Sputnik: 10+ degree launch angle..
General info: Our new 2-stage rocket SMARAGD will be launched to test long range communication, separations systems and much more.
SAPPHIRE-1
Launch window: July-Sept 2012 (specific launch window to be announced)
Test-range: ESD139, Baltic Sea
Trajectory estimates: N/A
Launch platform: Sputnik: 0+ degree launch angle..
General info: Sapphire is our active guided rocket using 4 jet-vanes controlled by the internal IMU which has to be launched at a zero degree angle in the middle of the test-range area. This test is very important for us. We must learn to master the way of active guidance.
