Update for 10:08 p.m. EST A cluster of four Globalstar satellites is bound for space today aboard a Starsem Soyuz rocket. The booster lifted off as scheduled at 10:06 p.m. EST (0306 GMT Monday) from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakstan. Officials report the first stage and payload fairing have been jettisoned. The launch is the second in Globalstar's deployment campaign using a Soyuz/Ikar booster. Spacecraft deployment is expected about 3 1/2 hours into flight. The satellites will join 12 others already in space that will ultimately form Globalstar's constellation of 48 low-Earth orbiting spacecraft. The network will provide global telephone and paging services beginning this September. A live feed of the launch has been found on Telstar 5, Ku-band with a downlink frequency of 12.015 GHz.
