approximately 200 km south of Arkhangelsk. Originally developed as an ICBM site for the R-7 missile, it also served for numerous satellite launches using the R-7 and other rockets. Its high latitude makes it useful only for certain types of launches, especially the Molniya orbits, so for much of the site's history it functioned as a secondary location, with most orbital launches taking place from Baikonur, in the Kazakh SSR. With the end of the Soviet Union, Baikonur became a foreign territory, and Kazakhstan charged $115 million usage fees annually. Consequently, Plesetsk has seen considerably more activity since the 2000s.", "image": { "id": 1461, "name": "Soyuz 2.1b/Fregat-M liftoff from pad 43/3 (Glonass-K2 No. 13, Kosmos 2569)", "image_url": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/soyuz25202.1b_image_20230807181912.jpg", "thumbnail_url": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/255bauto255d__image_thumbnail_20240305192834.jpeg", "credit": "Mil.ru", "license": { "id": 30, "name": "CC BY 4.0", "priority": 4, "link": "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }, "single_use": false, "variants": [] }, "map_image": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/map_images/location_6_20200803142434.jpg", "longitude": 40.577778, "latitude": 62.925556, "timezone_name": "Europe/Moscow", "total_launch_count": 1674, "total_landing_count": 0 } }, "webcast_live": false, "program": [], "orbital_launch_attempt_count": 5269, "location_launch_attempt_count": 1587, "pad_launch_attempt_count": 145, "agency_launch_attempt_count": 5, "orbital_launch_attempt_count_year": 5269, "location_launch_attempt_count_year": 1, "pad_launch_attempt_count_year": 1, "agency_launch_attempt_count_year": 1, "flightclub_url": null, "updates": [], "info_urls": [], "vid_urls": [], "timeline": [], "pad_turnaround": "P171DT14H49M25S", "mission_patches": [] }
