The third launch occurred on 1 February 2018 from Site 1S, with a Soyuz 2.1a/Fregat-M. The primary payloads were two Russian government Earth observation satellites, Kanopus-V 3 and 4. Also aboard were 9 cubesats. The launch was successful. [37] The fourth launch from Vostochny, using a Soyuz 2.1a, was conducted on 27 December 2018.
[2] The cause of failure was determined to be faulty programming. The satellite was programmed with a launch point of Baikonur Cosmodrome, instead of the Vostochny Cosmodrome [3] causing the satellite to enter an incorrect orbit. [4] This was the second launch from the Vostochny Cosmodrome, the first civilian launch site in Russia. [5]
