Watch ULA launch a secret satellite on their Atlas V (531) for the NRO

United Launch Alliance (ULA) will use an Atlas V rocket in the 531 configuration to support and deliver a payload for the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) – NROL-101. Atlas V is scheduled to liftoff from Space Launch Complex 41 (SLC-41) located in Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida, USA.

As other National Reconnaissance Missions are, the public, and even some members of ULA, are kept out of the loop about the payload. Government satellites are mostly highly classified due to their technologically advanced nature. The United States government aims to keep this information within the United States as it is highly valuable to world success.
