International Launch Services (ILS), a world leader in providing mission and launch services to the commercial satellite industry, successfully carried the Ciel II satellite into space for the Ciel Satellite Group of Canada today on Russia’s premier heavy-lift launch vehicle, the Proton Breeze M.
After nine hours and twelve minutes, the spacecraft separated from the Breeze M upper stage and was placed into geostationary transfer orbit today. Approximately one minute later, the satellite sent an initial signal which was received at the Thales Alenia Space (TAS) Spacecraft Operations Centre in Cannes, France (22.56 UTC/GMT/5:56 p.m. EST).
