... The launch objective is to deliver the 3.025-ton spacecraft into a geotransfer target orbit. The spacecraft insertion into this orbit was performed by the space upper stage Block DM-SL, designed and built by S.P.Korolev RSC Energia, from an intermediate low Earth orbit, where the upper stage with the spacecraft had been delivered by the two-stage launch vehicle Zenit-2S. The mission plan, which called for two burns of the upper stage main engine in automatic mode, has been fully completed. ...
