The test launch of the Soyuz-5 rocket in Kazakhstan has been postponed until the end of April.
The first test launch of the "Sunkar" ("Soyuz-5") carrier rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome has been postponed again, this time to a window up to 26 April. The decision is linked to additional checks of the launch complex equipment and the rocket's systems. The launch date had already been pushed back several times before; the final decision will be made by the Intergovernmental Commission after all checks are complete.
