SUMMARY:Liftoff: Falcon 9 Block 5 | WSF-M2 & BLAZE-2 (USSF-178)
DESCRIPTION:Second Weather System Follow-on (WSF) satellite.\n\nWSF-M (Weat
 her System Follow-on - Microwave) is the next-generation operational envir
 onmental satellite system for the Department of Defense (DoD)\, to replace
  the microwave wavelength weather forecasting capabilities of the DMSP sat
 ellites.\n\nBall Aerospace has been selected in late November 2017 to be t
 he prime contractor for 2 Low Earth Orbit (LEO) weather satellites with a 
 passive microwave imaging radiometer instrument and hosted Government furn
 ished energetic charged particle (ECP) sensor space weather payload develo
 ped by the Air Force Research Laboratory. The radiometer leverages the Bal
 l-built Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Microwave Imager (GMI) inst
 rument. \n\nThis mission will improve weather forecasting over maritime re
 gions by taking global measurements of the atmosphere and ocean surface.\n
 \nThe launch will also include BLAZE-2\, a launch opportunity for operatio
 nal\, research\, development\, and prototype small satellites from across 
 the DoD.\nSpaceX · Falcon 9\nIf the rocket slips\, this event moves the n
