Every so often Doug has a gem of a tweet.
Parabolicarc.com (@spacecom) tweeted at 0:23 PM on Fri, Aug 28, 2015:
Inmarsat set for key launch http://t.co/L9vV0C5Fto Worry not. Protons usually good right after failure. A few launches later not so much
(https://twitter.com/spacecom/status/637057762241851392)
The last back-to-back Proton failures were in 1988 with a Gorizont on 18 January and three GLONASS satellites failing to separate on 17 February. Other back-to-backs were in 1986/1987 and 1978. There were four consecutive failures in 1969/1970 and 1969, two consecutive failures in 1968 and three consecutive failures in 1967.

Great to finally get Tsenki working properly. You can see the Russian flag waving at the top and hear the wind blowing.
