The Vostochny Cosmodrome Site 1S (Russian: Площадka-1C) is a launch complex at the Vostochny Cosmodrome in Russia. It consists of a single pad for use by the Soyuz-2 launch vehicles. [1] On 28 April 2016, the first launch from the Vostochny Cosmodrome took place from this pad. [2] The third launch took place on 1 February 2018.
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.
A single rocket launch is sufficient for inclusion in the table, as long as the site is properly documented through a reference. Missile locations with no launches are not included in the list. Proposed and planned sites and sites under construction are not included in the main tabulation, but may appear in condensed lists under the tables.
"With this launch, flight design tests of the Amur space rocket complex with Angara heavy-class launch vehicles on Vostochny began." The 54.5-metre (178.81-foot) three-stage rocket, with a mass of ...

The launch took place on 10 August 2023 from Vostochny Cosmodrome on a Soyuz-2 rocket with a Fregat upper stage. [ 3 ] [ 28 ] [ 29 ] [ 30 ] On 16 August, the lander entered lunar orbit , with a scheduled landing date of 21 August.
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]
