ISRO successfully launched the LVM3-M6 mission with AST's 1st BlueBird Block 2 satellite last night! With a 223m² antenna, Block 2 is 3.4 times larger then Block 1. The next Block 2 satellite has already arrived at the launchsite for a Falcon 9 or New Glenn launch early next year.

Here is a timelapse of the whole year 2025 with the white-light images from NASA/SDO and in an extreme ultraviolet wavelength.

Orbit seems to be about 240 x 450km. I hope this is enough to start a rescue effort and use some of the 3 tonnes of propellant to put the satellite in a useful orbit. Maybe similar to the misplaced Galileo sats.

I don't think the 2nd stage burn #2 was nominal. The final shown speed was around 26000 km/h but altitude was dropping, when it should have been increasing... 🤔
