There was a garbage ILV "Soyuz-2.1b" with "Resurs-P" to the launch pad

22.06.2013 ::

 

    June 22 in accordance with the decision of the State Commission held a removal of a space rocket (RCN) "Soyuz-2.1b" and spacecraft remote sensing of the Earth "Resource-P" to the launch complex (SC) area 31 Baikonur cosmodrome.

    Upon arrival at the ILV SC calculations began work on schedule the first launch of the day.

    Start ILV "Soyuz-2.1b" with "Resurs-P" is scheduled for June 25.
