OneWeb suspends use of Russian rockets

3 March 2022

OneWeb, the satellite company part-owned by the UK government, says it is suspending all launches from the Russian-operated Baikonur spaceport. The firm had hoped to send up 36 spacecraft on a Soyuz rocket from the Kazakhstan cosmodrome, but the mission has become embroiled in the fall-out over the invasion of Ukraine. Roscosmos put down demands ahead of the flight that OneWeb could not meet.
