After successful transportation from EADS Astrium facilities in Toulouse, France, to the Baikonur Commodore, Kazakhstan on April 15th, Yahsat’s second satellite has now been mounted onto its launch vehicle the ILS Proton Breeze M; ready to be moved to its final position on land for its successful launch into space next week.
Set to launch on April 24th, Yahsat’s Y1B satellite will go through a series of vigorous functional tests and launch rehearsals before the rocket is armed and moved into position for take-off.
