Orbital in Final Preparations for Launch of MEASAT-3a
Orbital Sciences Corporation, one of the world's leading space technology companies, today announced that the MEASAT-3a commercial communications satellite has arrived at its launch site at Baikonur, Kazakhstan. The MEASAT spacecraft is scheduled to be launched into geosynchronous transfer orbit aboard a Land Launch rocket. The launch is currently scheduled to take place in late June 2009.
The arrival of MEASAT-3a at Baikonur marks the return of the spacecraft to the launch site following a six-month process to decontaminate, diagnose, repair and retest the spacecraft after it was damaged during crane operations at the launch complex and returned to the company's Dulles, VA facilities. The accident resulted in postponement of the satellite's initial launch date and the initiation of a series of processes by Orbital to repair and retest the satellite that focused on ensuring mission success.
