Posted: Sat, Dec 19, 2020, 5:24 PM ET (2224 GMT)
Russia launched a heavy-lift version of its Angara rocket for just the second time Monday, six years after its first flight. The Angara-A5 rocket launched from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome in northern Russia at 12:50 am EST (0550 GMT), carrying a demonstration payload. That payload will be deployed from the rocket's Breeze-M upper stage about nine hours after liftoff. The launch was just the second for the rocket, intended to be an eventual replacement for the Proton, with the first taking place in December 2014.
