Japan’s 23rd scientific satellite Suzaku (ASTRO-EII) is operating smoothly. Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency launched the Suzaku at 12:30 p.m. (Japan Standard Time, JST) on July 10, 2005, from the Uchinoura Space Center.<\/p>\n

Between around 5:07 and 5:12 a.m. on July 21 (JST), the final perigee up maneuver (to increase the perigee altitude) was carried out and successfully completed. Through this maneuver, the satellite is now in a circular orbit at an altitude of approximately 570 km, which is its scheduled orbit. <\/p>\n

After the initial operations, such as tests for onboard equipment, are carried out, observations are scheduled to start in mid August.<\/p>\n
