EchoStar Reschedules Delayed Launch For Aug. 20 telecomweb.com Aug 06, 2002 EchoStar Communications [DISH] rescheduled the launch of its EchoStar VIII satellite from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan, for Aug. 20. The satellite will launch aboard a Proton launch vehicle provided by International Launch Services. The satellite originally was scheduled for launch on June 22, but was scrubbed during the final hours prior to launch when anomalous readings from a command receiver on the satellite were observed. A problem identified with the command receiver has been corrected. The EchoStar VIII satellite, built by Space Systems/Loral in Palo Alto, Calif., will become the eighth satellite in the Littleton, Colo.-based company's in-orbit fleet.
