Russia’s Rassvet satellite network is reportedly facing setbacks after one satellite was lost, while two others may also be at risk. The system is intended to provide satellite communications and compete with networks such as Starlink. Losing spacecraft could limit coverage, reduce reliability, and complicate plans to expand service. Engineers are expected to investigate the failure, assess the remaining satellites, and determine whether repairs or replacements are possible. The setback could expose wider challenges in Russia’s commercial space program overall.
