MOM L-3

EUROCKOT's MOM Daily No. 20

Cosmodrome Plesetsk, June 27 (L-3):

The State Commission, consisting in representatives from Eurockot,
Khrunichev and the Space Forces met in the afternoon for the Launch
Readiness Review. The review validated, that all systems (SC, LV,
Launch Site, Ground Stations etc. .) are ready for the ROCKOT MOM
launch on June 30th. Based on that finding, the command for fuelling
of the launch vehicle was issued.

Additionally, a small internal launch rehearsal was performed within
the remote Mission Control Center MCC in Mirny. On Saturday
afternoon, after the rest of the customer representatives will have
arrived, there will be a another formal one. Everything is
functional. The Eurockot MCC was built in 1999/2000 and provides high
data rate connection to both the external world as well as to the
integration and the launch facilities. The customer is provided with
life video feed from the launch site as well as animated telemetry
data on ascent parameter, event confirmation, ground track, orbit
display and a full mission animation.

Everything is still on GO for June 30.
