LVM-3 | OneWeb 14
Indian Space Research Organization | IndiaSatish Dhawan Space Centre, India
Oct. 22, 2022, 6:37 p.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:
A batch of 36 satellites for the OneWeb satellite constellation, which is intended to provide global Internet broadband service for individual consumers. The constellation is planned to have around 648 microsatellites (of which 60 are spares), around 150 kg each, operating in Ku-band from low Earth orbit.

Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center | RussiaBaikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan
Oct. 12, 2022, 3 p.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:
The AngoSat 2 is a communications satellite built for Angola to replace the failed AngoSat 1. The Angosat Project calls for development of a communications satellite with C- and Ku-band transponders, its launch into a geostationary orbit and development of the ground communication and TV broadcasting infrastructure. In August 2019 it was revealed the replacement satellite is being built by ISS Reshetnev (Bus) and Airbus Defence & Space (payload). Construction has started in February 2018.

Epsilon | RAISE-3 & others
Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency | JapanUchinoura Space Center, Japan
Oct. 12, 2022, 12:50 a.m.
Status: Launch Failure
Mission:
RAISE-3 (RApid Innovative payload demonstration Satellite-3) was a satellite for on-orbit demonstrations of 7 demonstration components and equipment selected by public solicitation. The satellite was to be operated in response to requests from the demonstration theme proposers, and will provide experimental data of the demonstration devices and environmental data during the experiments. The launch is also carrying QPS-SAR 3 & 4 radar Earth observation satellites for iQPS, and 5 cubesats for various Japanese institutions & companies.

Soyuz 2.1b/Fregat | Glonass-K1 No. 17 (Kosmos 2559)
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaPlesetsk Cosmodrome, Russian Federation
Oct. 10, 2022, 2:52 a.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:
Glonass-K are the third generation of satellite design for GLONASS satellite navigation system. GLONASS is a Russian space-based navigation system comparable to the similar GPS and Galileo systems. This generation improves on accuracy, power consumption and design life. Each satellite is unpressurized and weighs 935 kg, and has an operational lifetime of 10 years.
