Long Beach-based Sea Launch plans Tuesday satellite launch

Sea Launch Co. plans a Tuesday morning launch of a communications satellite from an oceangoing platform in the Pacific, according to the company's Web site.

The launch had been scheduled for last Saturday but was scrubbed for reasons that the Long Beach-based company did not explain.

The company says it now plans to fire the 13,108-pound Inmarsat-4 satellite into space during a 29-minute window beginning at 6:07 a.m. Pacific Time.

The satellite from London-based Inmarsat Ltd. is designed to support delivery of high-speed Internet and intranet content and products, video-on-demand, videoconferencing, fax, e-mail, phone and LAN access, according to Sea Launch.
