3月14日,美国马丁·马丽埃塔公司的商用大力神3火箭第二次发射,把国际通信卫星6号F 3送入轨道后,第二级火箭和卫星没有分离,两者一起进入近地点169公里,远地点349公里,倾角28.6度,周期89.5分钟的轨道上。而后地面人员用指令使卫星上的近地点发动机和卫星分离。这样,使近地点发动机和第二级火箭一起与卫星分离。接着,地面人员启动卫星上的推力器,使轨道高度提高到近地点259.3公里,远地点407.4公里,周期91分钟的轨道上。在这条轨道上,卫星至少可运行一年而不会再入大气层。国际通信卫星组织的工程人员启动了卫星上所有必要的系统,检查和测试了各系统,他们认为各系统工作令人满意。
On March 14, after the second launch of commercial Hercules 3 rockets from Martin Marietta of the United States and the introduction of FTS-6 F3 into orbit, the second stage rockets did not separate from the satellites and both entered together 169 kilometers near the site, a distance of 349 kilometers, a dip of 28.6 degrees and a period of 89.5 minutes on the orbit. The ground crew then instructed the satellite’s perigee to separate the engine from the satellite. In this way, the perigee engine is separated from the satellite along with the second stage rocket. The ground crew then activated the thrusters on the satellites to raise the orbital altitude to 259.3 kilometers near the apogee and 407.4 kilometers apogee to the orbit of 91 minutes. In this orbit, satellites can run for at least a year without reentry into the atmosphere. The engineers at INTELSAT started all the necessary systems on the satellite and examined and tested the systems, which they considered satisfactory.
