Summary
Globalstar 33,50,55,58 launched on a Russian Federal Space Agency (ROSCOSMOS) Soyuz-U-PVB from 1/5, Baikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan on September 22, 1999. It was Russian Federal Space Agency (ROSCOSMOS)'s 92nd launch, 8th this year and humanity's 4,340th orbital launch attempt. It was the 50th Soyuz-U-PVB flight and the 6th this year. The payload was bound for low Earth orbit (LEO). Globalstar M058, one of 6 catalogued objects, reached a 899 × 971 km orbit inclined 52.0°. 6 objects from this launch are catalogued, 4 of them payloads.

About this launch
The Globalstar global mobile communications network offers global, digital real time voice, data and fax via a constellation of 48 minisatellites. The constellation operates in a 1410 km orbit inclined at 52 degrees, and will also have 8 spares. The satellites were built by Space Systems Loral and Alenia Aerospazio in Rome, Italy.
