Summary
Uragan 51 to 53 launched on a Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center Proton K/DM-2 from 81/23 (81L), Baikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan on February 17, 1993. It was Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center's 9th launch, 1st this year and humanity's 3,795th orbital launch attempt. It was the 63rd Proton K/DM-2 flight and the 1st this year. The payload was bound for Medium Earth Orbit (MEO). Kosmos-2234, one of 8 catalogued objects, reached a 18,979 × 19,007 km orbit inclined 64.9°. 8 objects from this launch are catalogued, 3 of them payloads.
