Short description: Ukrainian satellite
MK-1TS Micron (Ukrainian: МС-1-ТК Мікрон) is a small Ukraine microsatellite manufactured by Yuzhmash. MK-1TS was launched on December 24, 2004, at 13:20 from the Plesetsk cosmodrome (Russia) using a Cyclone-3 launch vehicle together with Sich-1M satellite.[1] Both satellites were placed into incorrect orbits due to premature third stage cutoff.
The satellite was active until September 30, 2005.[2]
Purpose
MK-1TS had a small on-board camera (MBTC-VD), to provide digital optical-electronic images in the panchromatic range.[3] One of its tasks was to work out a new system of orientation on the base of a magnetometer and electromagnets without using auxiliary devices.[4]
