> P3E is a HEO with the same engine as P3D and no benefactor funding a launch. Hi John, KD6OZH P3E is the only HEO with the possibility to be launched because her will carry on several experiments related to the Mars probe P5A under development in AMSAT-DL P3E is already made and it is standing in the labs of the University of Marburg Germany and is waiting for a launch opportunity while P5E is still under development. > It seems more reasonable to focus on projects that we can pay to launch All joined AMSAT togheter in the world has not the financial capability to pay for a HEO launch and this matter has been already discussed several time on this BB > or where someone has already donated the launch. Nobody has donated a launch for free or about for free on HEO except ESA for OSCAR-10 OSCAR-13 and AO40 upon political strategy conducted mostly by AMSAT-DL and this is why we must pull for P3E.......I agree completely with Luc, VE2DWE Actually the rest of HEO's are only on brains, on desk and on papers. > 73, > > John > KD6OZH 73" de i8CVS Domenico > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Luc Leblanc" <luclebla...@videotron.ca> > To: <amsat-bb@amsat.org> > Sent: Wednesday, September 02, 2009 02:42 UTC > Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: Trolls on the -bb > >> I know AMSAT has had it's issues over it's long history, and we are all > >> disappointed that HEOs seem to be almost out of reach for us now.
