    Japan begins busy year with classified IGS-Radar 7 launch

    by Chris Gebhardt January 25, 2023
    written by Chris Gebhardt

    The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and Mitsubishi Industries have conducted the nation’s first orbital flight of 2023. The mission saw an H-IIA rocket carry the classified IGS-7 radar reconnaissance satellite into a Sun-synchronous orbit.

    Liftoff occurred on Thursday, Jan. 26, 2023, at 01:49:20 UTC from Launch Area Y1 at the Tanegashima Space Center in southern Japan.  The launch window lasted just 61 seconds, closing at 01:50:21 UTC.

    The mission is the first of several planned orbital launches for Japan in 2023; however, that flight rate hinges not just on payload availability but on the successful introduction of the H3 rocket, currently slated for no earlier than February 12, 2023.
