GOES 2

 1977-048A

---

Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite 02 (GOES 2, GOES B) was launched at 1051:00 on 1977 Jun 16 by Delta 2914 from Cape Canaveral. In Nov 1978 it began participation in the FGGE as the GOES E satellite (75 deg West), but on Dec 18 its VISSR imager underwent a partial failure, and the old SMS 1 was called in to replace it as the GOES E satellite. It was moved to a backup position at 105W. This position was moved to 107W in 1981 for spacing purposes.

In the 1990s it was used by the Pacific Ocean PEACESAT network for communications. PEACESAT is the PanPacific Education and Communications Experiment by Satellite. It was replaced in 1999 by GOES 7 in that role. In 2001, NOAA raised GOES 2's orbit.

KazSat 1

 2006-022A

---

There is some confusion over the launch mass of Kazsat. 1725 kg according to Tsenki; 1380 kg according to other sources; 1092 kg according to Federal Space Agency brochure and Novosti Kosmonavtiki magazine.

KazSat built by Krunichev as article 78KS for launch by Proton-M with GPKS and the Republic of Kazakhstan. Ground station and control center at Alakol, 100 km from Astana. Originally intended as a secondary payload, after delays with the primary one KazSat was launched on its own.
