Cygnus CRS-6 (Rick Husband)
2016-019A
Cygnus OA-6. Cargo up 3395 kg. Mass 7200 kg launch, 5866 kg docking.
Expected undocking mass 5303 (SkyWatch,HSF Els). ISS mass values were decremented by a further 2536 kg.
The Atlas cutoff came early, requiring over one minute extra burn time on the Centaur. Cygnus reached the right orbit but several hundred km downrange of the plan, requiring a different sequence of rendezvous burns. The Centaur was also deorbited outside of its target zone.
At the end of its mission OA-6 undocked and performed the SAFIRE combustion experiment. It then attempted to deploy 5 LEMUR satellites from the NanoRacks NRCSD-E. Two pairs deployed successfully but the final of three silos, containing a single cubesat, failed to open.
