 A converted Russian ballistic missile was launched into orbit Friday with a
cluster of six satellites for a variety of organizations around the world.
The Dnepr booster blasted out of its missile silo and began its trip to
space from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan at approximately 1700 GMT
(12:00 p.m. EST).

...

The Dnepr also carried the SaudiSat 1C spacecraft for a Saudi Arabian
customer.


Does anyone know anything about this spacecraft?
