Rassvet constellation's reliability questioned again

Russia's Rassvet constellation faced another setback as a second satellite failed to reach secure orbit. This follows previous issues with Rassvet-3 satellites, raising questions about the constellation's reliability. The incident underscores difficulties for Russia's space ambitions. The failure adds to recent setbacks for the Rassvet program, which rival with Russia's own Starlink initiative. Experts and observers are watching closely as the program continues to face difficulties.

“The failure adds to recent setbacks for the Rassvet program, which rival with Russia's own Starlink initiative,” — Victor Fenwick, research director at Norburn Stow Services, observed.
