The Vega C lane with five satellites on board began from Cosmodrome Kuru in French Guiana.
The Arianespace has launched five satellites for the France Space Agency (CNES) in space. Space.com reported it on Saturday, July 26th.
As part of the VV27 mission, a 35-meter vega c lane with five satellites on board began from Kosmodrome Kuru in French Guiana at 05:03 in the morning of KYIV time.
One of the satellites is the microcarb, which is a project under the leadership of the French space agency CNES. This 180-kilogram spacecraft is designed to map carbon dioxide (CO2) resources on a global size.
The microcarb can determine the concentration of CO2 with the accuracy of one million parts. The satellite will work with sunny orbit at a height of 650 kilometers above the ground for at least five years, if everything is consistent with the plan.
The other four satellites – CO3D – will develop a constellation to observe the soil from CNES. Each spacecraft in the quartet weighs about 250 kg and will work with a sunny orbit sync at a height of 502 km above the ground for at least six years.
All satellites were created by European Company Airbus.
It is noted that the CO3D satellites are deployed about 57 minutes after launch, and microcarb – after another 44 minutes.
