Today: The first plane with some of the payload hardware and support equipment arrived. We estimate that it will take 4 plane loads to transport the full shipment from Longyearbyen to Ny-Alesund. We hope to complete that task by the end of the day.
The photos below are of the arriving shipment, and the somewhat confusing shipping labels. The labels list both Andoya Rocket Range and Svalrak in Ny-Alesund. This confusing label contributed to the error that sent the shipment to Andoya first.
