A Russian military satellite has reached its designated orbit and established stable contact with ground control services, a spokesman for Russia's Aerospace Defense Forces told RIA Novosti on Tuesday. The satellite was launched earlier on Tuesday on board a Soyuz-2.1b carrier rocket from the Plesetsk space center in northern Russia. "The telemetry link with the satellite has been established and maintained. All on-board systems are performing normally," Col. Dmitry Zenin said. The satellite, designated Kosmos-2506, is believed to be part of the Russian optical reconnaissance satellite network. Source: Sputnik News
