About the mission
Not much could be found on the South Korean company KT Sat’s website about KOREASAT 6A, but according to the Kennedy Space Center, it “will have 20 transponders for fixed satellite services and six for TV broadcasting to replace the KOREASAT 6 launched in 2010.”
The satellite was built by Thales Alenia Space.
According to KT Sat, the KOREASAT 6’s orbital position is 116°E that was launched on Dec. 30, 2010, with a lifespan of 15 years.
The KOREASAT 6A will be sent to a geosynchronous transfer orbit.
