A few hours ago, the Sentinel-1C satellite, part of the Copernicus / GMES, was launched from the Kourou spaceport, in French Guiana, atop a Vega-C rocket. After about 1 hour and 44 minutes, the satellite regularly separated from the rocket's last stage and started sending signals. Its final orbit in low Earth orbit will be at an altitude of about 693 kilometers.
