Associated space launch
Proba-V maps land cover and monitors vegetation growth across the globe. Launched along with Proba-V are the first Earth observation satellite for Vietnam, VNREDSat 1A, and the first Estonian satellite ESTCube-1. ESTCube-1 is also the first satellite in the world to attempt the use of an electric solar wind sail.
AVUM DEB (ADAPTOR) was lifted into orbit during the mission ‘Vega | Proba-V, VNREDSat 1A, ESTCube-1’, on board a Vega space rocket.
The launch took place on May 7, 2013, 2:06 a.m. from Ariane Launch Area 1 (ELV).
