Camarillo, CA and Rockledge, FL (November 16, 2021) – Saalex Corporation’s launch team has been extremely busy this week, providing critical launch and flight support for two SpaceX missions. The Crew-2 Dragon module safely splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico Tuesday (November 9, 2021), ending the 199-day Crew-2 mission to the International Space Station. Last night, Saalex’s Expendable Launch Vehicle Integrated Support 3 (ELVIS 3) team also assisted with the launch of the Crew-3 module, from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

The ELVIS 3 team supported weather briefings, mission management team meetings and readiness reviews in preparation for last night’s launch. The support required for the missions was more involved than typical operations, as NASA and SpaceX decided to bring the Crew-2 mission home before launching the Crew-3. This required the teams to perform an unusual switch from a direct to an indirect ‘handover’, allowing the two mission milestones to occur so close to one another.

The Crew-3 and Crew-2 missions were the latest space flights that the ELVIS 3 team has supported this year, having assisted the Landsat 9 launch in September, and an April SpaceX mission to the International Space Station. The ELVIS 3 team provided engineering, programmatic and technical support for each of the launches.

“The Saalex team has shown it can support a very ambitious launch schedule, which is critical to maintain our nation’s leadership in the space domain,” said Travis Mack, president and CEO, Saalex. “As the number of commercial launch companies continues to grow, they can be confident that the ELVIS 3 team will be there to support their missions, no matter how busy the launch schedules get.”

Camarillo, CA and Rockledge, FL (October 12, 2021) – NASA later this month will be launching its historic Lucy asteroid probe later this month, and Saalex Solutions will be providing critical launch support services for the launch. The mission, which starts with a liftoff from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station October 16, will have Lucy visiting eight asteroids over 12 years, the most asteroids ever visited by a single space probe.

Lucy, named after the famous female fossil found in Ethiopia, will explore an area close to Jupiter that is known for a unique type of asteroid. Scientists feel these asteroids can unlock secrets about the creation of the solar system and quite possibly the evolution of life on this planet, much the way the Lucy ancestral fossil did about our understanding of the origins of humans on Earth.

Saalex’s Expendable Launch Vehicle Integrated Support 3 (ELVIS 3) team is providing engineering, programmatic, and technical support for the launch. This is the latest rocket launch that the ELVIS 3 team has supported this year, having recently assisted with the Landsat 9 launch, and an April SpaceX manned flight to the International Space Station.

“This is a tremendously exciting mission to be a part of, and we are so honored to be affiliated with this groundbreaking team of space explorers,” said Travis Mack, president and CEO, Saalex. “ELVIS 3 is becoming one of the top space launch support teams in the United States, and we could not be more proud of the impactful work it is doing.”

Lucy will conduct surface mapping of the asteroids, to better understand their age and composition, and check for organic materials. The spacecraft will also look for any potential additional asteroids in the area. It will travel farther from the sun than any solar-powered probe ever.

These contracts provide research and development, engineering, integration, test, cybersecurity, upgrade, and sustainment for various tactical threat systems in support of improving aircrew lethality and survivability for the Navy. Work will be performed at China Lake, California, and is expected to be completed in September 2026. The Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division, China Lake, California, is the contracting activity. This win expands on the support Saalex has been providing NAWCWD China Lake and extends the relationship for another 5 years.

The Mobile and Integrated Threat Systems Division has been designated, by Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), to develop, sustain, and upgrade training systems aimed to improve aircrew lethality and survivability. Training systems include threat simulators, radars, and training instrumentation capable of operation in the Network-Centric Warfare and Battlespace environments. In order to maintain warfighter relevancy, these complex systems are continuously modified and modernized to provide realistic battlefield scenarios. The TTS contract primarily deals with support to the Tactical Combat Training System (TCTS) user community through specialized system software and hardware enhancements, system sustainment activities, user support hotline, and troubleshooting. TCTS systems directly support warfighter training and real-time data for mission debrief events to include live virtual constructive (LVC) data fusion, air-to-air and air-to-ground weapon and threat simulations, and EW threat computations.

“We are very excited to be a part of TTS! Saalex remains committed to providing realistic training environments to support the Warfighter and enhance their combat readiness to face the constantly changing threats we face as a nation. This win allows us to further cultivate our relationship with China Lake, enhances our ability to support the Navy mission, and expands our current portfolio in China Lake and the services we provide.” said Saalex’s Director of Program Operations, Mr. Robert Bezduch.
