Russia launched a military communications satellite March 12. A Proton rocket lifted off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome at 7:13 pm EDT (2313 GMT) Sunday and placed the Luch-5X satellite, also known as Olymp-K2, into a geostationary transfer orbit several hours later. The Luch/Olymp satellites are believed to provide secure military communications while also conducting signals intelligence activities.
