19 July 2006 Eurockot Set to Launch KOMPSAT-2
Following its successful integration with the upper stage of a Rockot launch vehicle, Korea`s earth observation satellite KOMPSAT-2 is now scheduled to be launched by Eurockot Launch Services GmbH from Plesetsk Cosmodrome on 28th July 2006. KOMPSAT-2 will be injected into a sun-synchronous orbit of 685 km altitude. Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) had contracted the launch with Eurockot following an international Call for Tender.
"We hope to strengthen our lead in the Asian market with this launch," Peter Freeborn, Eurockot`s Sales Director stated."We would particularly like to position ourselves for future satellite programmes the Republic of Korea is currently planning."
KOMPSAT-2 was mated with its adapter/separation system last week and has meanwhile been integrated with the Breeze-KM upper stage of the Rockot launch vehicle which was followed by encapsulation in the dedicated Rockot technical facilities at Plesetsk Cosmodrome. The next operation will be the transport of the integrated upper composite to the launch pad where it will be mated with the Rockot booster stages. Following electrical tests, fuelling of the boosters will occur two days before the launch.
KOMPSAT-2 was built in the Republic of Korea by KARI. The satellite will be used to monitor natural disasters and emergencies, and will also be used for land development purposes. It is equipped with a high resolution camera that will take multi-spectral images of the Earth´s surface. KOMPSAT-2 has a fuelled mass of 800 kg. With deployed solar panels it will measure 2.80 by 6.90 metres.
Eurockot Launch Services is the joint venture of Astrium GmbH (51%) and Khrunichev (49%) and is based in Bremen, Germany. As part of the European launcher family which includes the Ariane 5 and Soyuz launch vehicles, Rockot currently represents the small launcher capability.
Eurockot performs launch services with the Russian Rockot which uses stock-piled SS-19 strategic missiles as booster stages. The upper stage Breeze-KM is newly produced by Khrunichev and provides the Rockot system with a high precision injection capability due to its multiple re-ignition engines. Launches are conducted from the Russian Cosmodrome Plesetsk south of Archangel.
A substantial investment by Astrium was used to create world-class integration, customer and launch facilities for the dedicated use by Eurockot. Since May 2000, six launches have so far been conducted for operators of earth observation, scientific and communication satellites, including the European Space Agency, by which Eurockot has been contracted to launch the GOCE, SMOS and Proba-2 satellites.

Es gibt auch noch russische RAketen bei denen alles glatt zu laufen scheint. :)
18 and 19 July 2006
After encapsulation, the joint electrical test No. 4 was performed and the results were within the specification. No deviations were observed against the previous electrical test No.3.
The Korean Broadcasting System KBS visited Plesetsk Cosmodrome including the Eurockot integration facilities and the launch pad where all mission logos had already been installed on the launch tower.
The launch tower is now waiting for the upper composite. The roll-out from the MIK to the Launch Pad is scheduled for 19th July in the evening.
The temperature conditions are different from Western Europe, in average it is 18°C in Plesetsk.

The upper composite was lifted-off for mating with the booster unit, consisting of the first and the second stage.
After the mechanical mate of the upper composite with the launch vehicle, the joint electrical test No.5 was performed on 22 July. Khrunichev verified first the electrical interfaces from the launch pad to the customer interface in the bunker. The spacecraft was tested in the Initial Configuration & Launch Configuration during these test activities. The Breeze KM was not powered ON, ONLY transit lines were tested here.
The test was performed successfully. Afterwards the customer performed their own test concerning the Battery Top Of Charge.
