According to tracking information supplied by NORAD/JSpOC, spacecraft controllers have adjusted the orbit of the Luch-5A relay satellite. Luch-5A is the first of a set of three geostationary satellites being launched to reactivate Roscosmos’s Luch Multifunctional Space Relay System. The system will be used to relay communications and telemetry between low-Earth-orbiting spacecraft, such as the Russian segment of International Space Station, and Russian ground facilities.
