SpaceX Fairing Separation Test

May 19, 2013

SpaceX Fairing Separation Test Video of SpaceX’s 5.2m fairing—designed in-house by SpaceX—undergoing testing in the world’s largest vacuum chamber at NASA Glenn Research Center — Plum Brook Station. SpaceX’s fairing is used to protect a satellite during launch. Separation occurs when the rocket is traveling over 4x faster than a speeding bullet, nearly 10x the speed of sound. The video is in slow motion. From: spacexchannel Views: 27200 688 ratings Time: 00:58 More in Science & Technology
