Mr A. If I may ask a follow on question to your comment: As for Globalstar, the satellites launched in to a 900 km orbit have 7 ½ years of fuel. But for those (like on the Delta) that get launched into a higher orbit, their fuel reserves is much, much greater. That is because the fuel is used not only for orbit keeping once on station, but also orbit raising after launch. From this may I infer that the Soyuz then launches to a lower orbit, and therefore is inferior to a Delta wrt propellant costs? (satellite useful life) Was this part of the reasoning for the lumbering Zenit - a higher altitude launch capability? Just how large are the differences? Same day launch on one rocket verses another results in how many months delta useful life? Thanks Jeff Vayda
