Advances, pictures, details, comments: http://www.facebook.com/orbiterfilmmaker The Angara rocket family is a family of space-launch vehicles being developed by the Moscow-based Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center. The rockets are to put between 3,800 and 24,500 kg into low Earth orbit and are intended, along with Soyuz-2 variants, to replace several existing launch vehicles. The Angara A5, which consists of one URM-1 core and four URM-1 boosters, a 3.6m URM-2 second stage, and an upper stage, either the Briz-M or the KVTK. Weighing 773 tonnes at lift-off, Angara A5 has a payload capacity of 24.5 tonnes to a 200 km x 60° orbit. Angara A5 is able to deliver 5.4 tonnes to GTO with Briz-M, or 7.5 tonnes to the same orbit with KVTK. In the Angara A5, the four URM-1s used as boosters operate at full thrust for approximately 214 seconds, then separate. The URM-1 forming the vehicle's core is operated at full thrust for lift off, then throttled down to 30% to conserve propellant. The core is throttled back up after the boosters have separated and continues burning for another 110 seconds. The Universal Rocket Module (URM) forms the core of every Angara vehicle. Each URM is powered by a single NPO Energomash RD-191 burning liquid oxygen and RP-1 (kerosene). Parking orbit 252 x 252 km i= 51.5° Intermediate orbit 1006 x 19390 km i= 48.6° Transfer orbit 1011 x 35710 i= 46.2° Geo-transfer orbit 9673x35786 i= 19.7° Geostationary orbit 35792 x 35779 km i= 0.1°
