In the video of the fairing adapter deploying the satellites, there's some kind of white highlight or light-source in the upper-left part of the frame. What was that?
Also, what happens to the mass-adapter (i.e. the balancing 12th non-satellite)?
- lutorm 11y agoThe entire second stage, including the payload adapter, did a deorbit burn after deployment, to avoid creating space debris.
- nickhalfasleep 11y agoI think that was some sort of reflection on the camera housing. And I think the mass-adapter would stay with the 2nd stage for deorbit, they would rather not add to the space junk problem.
