There is inconsistency in the EA Registration Document in this regard. The Cyclone-4M will ramp up to a maximum of eight (8) launches per year over the first five (5) of operation. It is anticipated there would be one launch in the first year (2021) and an increasing number of launches each year up to a maximum of eight (8) by approximately 2026. The total number of launches under this project (2021-2030) is estimated to be 159. 1-2 March 2019 Responses To Terms of Reference for the Preparation of a Focus Report Canso Spaceport Facility 1.0 Project Description Proposed by Maritime Launch Services, Ltd. 1.2 Given the highly toxic properties of hydrazine related chemicals (e.g., unsymmetrical dimethyl hydrazine, hydrazine and monomethylhydrazine), the following information requests are required as part of the Focus Report: o A jurisdictional review on where hydrazine related chemicals are used for similar spaceport facilities in developed countries, and a list of spaceports in developed countries where hydrazine related chemicals are used currently; Historically, the primary use of hydrazine was as a rocket propellant. In the United States (US), 73% of hydrazine consumed in 1964 was used for this purpose. By 1982, the use profile for hydrazine had diversified: 40% of hydrazine was used in the manufacture of agricultural chemicals, 33% for chemical blowing agents, 15% in boiler water treatment as a corrosion inhibitor, 5% as rocket propellant and 7% for other purposes. Hydrazine was not manufactured in Canada in 2006 (the data collection year for the Canadian Environmental Protection Act [CEPA] Domestic Substances List [DSL] Assessment) above the reporting threshold of 100 kg. The quantity of hydrazine imported into Canada in 2006 was in the range of 10000–100000 kg. Most of these imports were as aqueous solutions of hydrazine, the form of the product commonly found on the market. In 2006, 123 kg and 1,865 kg of hydrazine were reported to have been released to the atmosphere and hydrosphere, respectively. In addition to environmental releases of hydrazine, 1,076 kg were transferred to hazardous waste facilities for disposal in 2006 (EC/HC 2011a). In addition to use as fuel for many rockets and spacecraft, including the space shuttle, Northrop Grumman’s (Formerly Orbital ATK) Cygnus capsule, SpaceX’s Dragon Capsule, and the MAC-200 satellite bus manufactured by Magellan Aerospace for the RADARSAT Constellation, hydrazine

  • Optimization of Ammonium Sulfamate Nitration for the Preparation of Ammonium Dinitramide
    Optimization of Ammonium Sulfamate Nitration for the Preparation... 83 Central European Journal of Energetic Materials, 2014, 11(1), 83-97 ISSN 1733-7178 Optimization of Ammonium Sulfamate Nitration for the Preparation of Ammonium Dinitramide Alok Kumar MANDAL*1, Ganesh Murlidhar KUNJIR1, Jaivindra SINGH1, Sushma S. ADHAV1, Sunil Kumar SINGH1, Raj Kishore PANDEY1, Bikash BHATTACHARYA1, Mannepalli LAKSHMI KANTAM2 and Karasala Vijaya KUMAR2 1High Energy Materials Research Laboratory, Chemical Engineering and Pilot Plant Division, Sutarwadi, Pune-411021, India 2Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad-500 007, India *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The reaction kinetics for the preparation of ammonium dinitramide (ADN) is described. ADN is the ammonium salt of the dinitramide anion, and belongs to the group of inorganic oxidizers, mainly useful for energetic rocket propellant formulations, particularly for underwater applications. It is also a potential candidate to replace ammonium perchlorate (AP), in order to develop chlorine-free, green propellants. At HEMRL, ADN is prepared by the nitration of ammonium sulfamate (AS) using mixed acid, followed by hydrolysis, neutralization with ammonia (g) and rectification using solvent. The nitration of ammonium sulfamate (AS) is carried out at a subzero temperature of -40 ±1 °C. The yield of ADN is reliant on the formation of dinitramidic acid, an intermediate product formed during the hydrolysis step, and its stability is predominantly dependent upon the level of acidity and temperature of the reaction medium. Prior to these kinetics studies, process optimization of the nitration of ammonium sulfamate (AS) was performed and gave the final mole ratio of AS:HNO3:H2SO4. Since the nitration of AS is sensitive to temperature, the rate of reaction was studied at fixed temperatures with variation of time, keeping all of the other parameters, such as vessel volume, agitator speed, feed rate etc., constant.

  • Nanoracks Signs Agreement with Canada's Maritime Launch on Re
    Nanoracks Signs Agreement with Canada’s Maritime Launch on Re- Use of C4M Upper Stages for In-Orbit Space Outposts October 24, 2019 – Washington, DC – Nanoracks, the world’s leading provider of commercial access to space, is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with Canada’s Maritime Launch Services to work on re-purposing and re-using spent C4M upper rocket vehicle stages, which would be in-orbit after launch missions from Nova Scotia’s Canso Spaceport, Canada’s first and only commercial spaceport. In 2018, Nanoracks was one of the awardees of a study contract by NASA to develop the future of commercial spaceflight in low-Earth orbit. Through that award, Nanoracks has been investigating the commercial case for repurposing in-space hardware, and this agreement with Maritime Launch further establishes the company’s commitment to innovating a more affordable and less-risky pathway to establishing in-space habitats (‘Outposts’) for future crewed missions, instead of fabricating modules on the ground, and subsequently launching them to orbit. “The proven heritage of the C4M launch family, with over 220 launches to date, will provide Nanoracks with plenty of opportunities to choose the appropriate missions on which to test and develop the proposed upper stage conversions into resilient automated habitats, and one day human habitats,” says Steve Matier, Maritime Launch CEO. “Canada has a reputation for providing in-space robotics for the International Space Station, such as the CANADARM and the Dextre programs. With Nanoracks, we hope to see this country’s legacy expanding further into economically viable space habitats, and to organize the related launch missions to bring equipment and supplies to these new working structures.” “It’s Nanoracks vision to re-purpose upper stages of launch vehicles and convert them into Outposts.

  • Stabilization of the New Oxidizer Ammonium Dinitramide (ADN) in Solid Phase
    NATO UNCLASSIFIED Stabilization of the New Oxidizer Ammonium Dinitramide (ADN) in Solid Phase Dr. Manfred Bohn Fraunhofer-Institut für Chemische Technologie (ICT) Postfach 1240 D-76318 Pfinztal-Berghausen GERMANY e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Ammonium dinitramide (ADN) is one of the substances, which are seen to be able to replace ammonium perchlorate (AP) as oxidizer in rocket propellants. Some of the performance data in comparison to AP substantiate this suggestion (values for AP in brackets). It has a good oxygen balance of +25.8% (+34%), a more positive enthalpy of formation, -1208 J/g (-2518 J/g) and a higher heat of explosion as AP, 3337 J/g (1972 J/g). An additional advantage is that the reaction products of ADN are free of signature. One drawback of ADN clearly is the much lower thermal stability than that of AP, together with the relatively low melting point between 92 and 94°C. But the lower stability must not exclude its application in some types of rocket systems. The intrinsic stability of ADN is not much lower than that of unstabilized nitrocellulose. If it would be possible to find stabilizers, ADN can be considered as a substitute candidate for AP. An extensive investigation was made with eight substances to find out their stabilization effect on ADN. The ADN samples were mixed intensively with an amount of 2 mol-% each of these chemicals. The experimental methods used to determine the stabilization effect have been mass loss as function of time and temperature, 65°C, 70°C, 75°C, 80°C, and adiabatic self heating.

Abstract Background: NASA selected the Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) investigation in 1986 for the Mars Observer mission. The MOC consisted of three elements which shared a common package: a narrow angle camera designed to obtain images with a spatial resolution as high as 1.4 m per pixel from orbit, and two wide angle cameras (one with a red filter, the other blue) for daily global imaging to observe meteorological events, geodesy, and provide context for the narrow angle images. Following the loss of Mars Observer in August 1993, a second MOC was built from flight spare hardware and launched aboard Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) in November 1996.
