Another Dawn satellite fell. Today, the second production satellite Rasbet-3, number 17, which was launched in July, burned up. Apparently, the spacecraft never activated the propulsion system, which is why it did not gain altitude and could not stay in orbit. Thus, out of 32 satellites, 2 failed, one from each batch. But the situation with the rest is better - out of 30 satellites, 26 (13 from each batch) are at an altitude of 500 km, another 3 are in the process of ascending and 1 is still at an altitude of 340 km since June.
