Its cargo was classified but it is reported that two (USA-11 and USA-12) DSCS-III (Defense Satellite Communications System) communications satellites were launched into stationary orbit by an Inertial Upper Stage. The DSCS satellites use X-band frequencies (8/7 GHz). Each DSCS III satellite has a design life of ten years, although several of the DSCS satellites on-orbit today have far exceeded their design life expectancy and continue to perform with outstanding results.
I AM complaining. I was in FL to actually see the 51-J launch when i was a kid and i've been trying to find video of it. You really should correct your error.
lol that music sounds like music from the movie Risky Business! LOL
