[QUOTE="donner, post: 3081121, member: 277"] Just a guess on my part, but wasn't this launch (in large part) a test of the falcon heavy system? Seems like putting an expensive observatory or communications satellite on an experimental launch system might risk a lot of $$$$ unnecessarily. If he had loaded it up with expensive tech, and it blew up on the ground, wouldn't people be asking why they risked so much hardware on an untested rocket... [/QUOTE]
