Once launched Koronas-Photon will be placed into a cirtular orbit 500kms above the Earth. Orbital inclination - 82.5 deg. |

I have my explaination why this happened, but I'm not sure this is the right place to share (involves political and economy issues).
Anyway, I'm giving a facebook account if anybody wants to go into a detailed discussion with me: www.facebook.com/svetoslav After all, I'm again disturbed by the fact that Roscosmos and most of the official several sites are silent - just like after the delay of Phobos-Grunt. |
