Sputnik brings you a live broadcast from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan as Roscosmos is set to launch the AngoSat 2 satellite using a Proton-M rocket on Wednesday, October 12. AngoSat 2 is a communications satellite built for Angola to replace AngoSat 1, which was launched in December 2017 and achieved a geostationary transfer orbit. However, it later drifted out of position due to issues with the electrical power system. The AngoSat Project is aimed at developing communications satellites equipped with C- and Ku-band frequency transponders, as well as ground communications and broadcasting infrastructure.
