18.08.2011 / 09:32 Запуск белорусского спутника может быть отложен на следующий год Беларусь не сможет в 2011 году попасть в клуб стран, освоивших околоземное пространство. Как сообщает Interfax.by со ссылкой на источник в ракетно-космической отрасли РФ совместный запуск российского и белорусского космических аппаратов дистанционного зондирования Земли с космодрома Байконур будет перенесен на следующий год из-за технических проблем. "Есть проблемы с программно-математическим обеспечением для систем управления спутников "Канопус-В" и "БелКА-2". Окончательная версия математики будет готова только к началу декабря, поэтому шансов на запуск аппаратов в 2011 году, скорее всего, нет", - сказал на Международном авиационно-космическом салоне МАКС-2011 в Жуковском.
Zond-PP, ADS-1B and TET-1 satellites have been delivered to cosmodrome on 2nd may 2012.http://www.roscosmos.ru/main.php?id=2&nid=19031

Earlier reports said that a Soyuz-FG will be used (not that it's much of a difference, but I want to set the records straight....).

So the two satellites with orange insulation are the near-identical Kanopus and BelKA. I think that's MKA-FKI in front and probably exactView-1 (ADS-1b) peeking out at the back; where is TET-1?
I'm confused. Is this a Russian government or commercial launch? Either way, will it be broadcasted anywhere?

Fregat upper stage wuth five satellites has separated from the third stage of Soyuz-FG rocket at 06:50 UTC.

the Soyuz-FG third stage has not been cataloged (although it should have reached orbit).
Quote from: jcm on 07/23/2012 04:04 am the Soyuz-FG third stage has not been cataloged (although it should have reached orbit).Do we know if the third stage was separated from Fregat at more than orbital velocity?

And "Rezonans No. 1A" is another, future, satellite using the same bus and also carrying the Zond-PP instrument, rather than just another name for this satellite - correct?
The payload adapter structure seems very complicated and large for those small payloads. Is that related to the Phobos-Grunt payload adapter?

The Fregat has been ignited five times overall (not counting the deorbit burn).But do we know how many ignitions happened during the first phase (insertion of Kanopus-V, BKA and TET-1), and how many happened during the second phase (insertion of exactView 1 and Zond-PP) ?
Roscosmos video of launch (HD):
Communications are lost with Zond-PP. The satellite is probably lost.Apparently, the cause is the onboard computer.http://novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/news/10381/
• The Technology Experimental Vehicle (TET-1) entered Earth's atmosphere on November 18, 2022 and burned up completely.• Research and industry have used TET-1 since launch in 2012 as part of the OOV-TET-1 mission to test new products under space conditions.• The small satellite became part of the FireBIRD mission in November 2013 and provided data for the analysis of high-temperature events on the Earth's surface. A total of about 7,600 recordings were made. Within the overall mission, around 150 scientific publications as well as bachelor's and master's theses and dissertations have emerged.<snip>Until its re-entry on November 18, 2022, TET-1 was still active, could receive commands, send readings and control its position autonomously. The TET-1 satellite burned up completely on re-entering the atmosphere after 10 years in orbit.
