The KOEN spacecraft and Kinosputnik, launched from Vostochny, were launched into orbit and took control. Roscosmos reported it.
Let us remind you that on November 14 at 4:16 Moscow time, the Soyuz-2.1b launch vehicle was launched from the Vostochny Cosmodrome in the Amur region with the spacecraft KOHEN (MT-LAB company) and Kinosputnik (SPUTNIX group of companies).
This is the first subsidized launch of private satellites as part of the National Space Project. The spacecraft will simulate the earth's surface with an extremely high resolution, which will enable the solution of applied problems: from monitoring the intended use of the land and identifying illegal buildings to monitoring dangerous natural phenomena and solving environmental problems.
After separation from the third stage of the launch vehicle, the upper stage Frigate, which is produced at the Union of Science and Production named after S.A. Levochkin (part of the state corporation Roscosmos), launched satellites into orbit.
The spacecraft KOEN and Kinosputnik were accepted for control by ground means.
