Summary
Raduga-1 7 launched on a Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center Proton K/DM-2 from 81/23 (81L), Baikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan on March 27, 2004. It was Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center's 104th launch, 2nd this year and humanity's 4,649th orbital launch attempt. It was the 102nd Proton K/DM-2 flight and the 1st this year. The payload was bound for Geostationary Orbit (Direct-GEO). Raduga-1, one of 6 catalogued objects, reached a 229 × 35,924 km orbit inclined 48.7°. 6 objects from this launch are catalogued, one of them a payload.
