The CSO-1 Earth observation satellite was successfully deployed into a Sun-synchronous orbit approximately one hour after being launched by a Soyuz ST-A launch vehicle from the Soyuz Launch Complex (ELS) in Sinnamary, French Guiana, on 19 December 2018, at 16:37 UTC (13:37 local time). CSO-1 is the first satellite of the Optical Space Component (CSO - Composante Spatiale Optique) program, a constellation of three satellites (CSO-1, CSO-2, CSO-3) dedicated to Earth observation for the French Ministry of Defense.
