MOSCOW (Reuters) – Russia on Tuesday aborted the test launch of the Angara-A5 rocket from its Vostochny cosmodrome minutes before it was scheduled to lift off.
According to an announcement made through loudspeakers at the launch pad, the launch – which was supposed to be the first for this type of rocket at Russia’s new cosmodrome – was delayed by at least 24 hours.
