Americans launch new GPS satellite

Early in the morning at 7 o'clock in the United States of America, the latest satellite called "GPS 2F" was successfully sent into space, which is a powerful navigation complex with global positioning abilities.

The main task set by scientists before this satellite is to orbit the Atlas 5 rocket module, equipped, surprisingly, with Russian-made engines, which the Americans had previously abandoned.

According to official data released by the media, the satellite launched the rocket into orbit at approximately 11:00 hours in the United States. At the moment, experts are testing the device to identify potential problems in the design and other features.
