The launch of the Proton-M launch vehicle from the Baikonur Cosmodrome was postponed due to the discovery of local discrepancies in the upper stage of the rocket during routine pre-launch checks of all systems.

“The rocket launch has been postponed to eliminate shortcomings. At the same time, the transfer will not affect the planned scientific program and all tasks will be completed,” reported in Rosaviatsia.
The state corporation noted that the scope of work has been determined and that after taking the necessary measures, preparation of the launch vehicle will continue as usual.
