Intelsat 20 was successfully launched 2 August 2012 by Arianespace. The north and south solar arrays have been deployed and spacecraft health is operating nominally. The spacecraft is currently in route to its in-orbit testing location. The first 3 out of 4 Apogee Maneuver Firings have been successfully completed. Bus testing will commence 12 August 2012, followed by Payload testing a few days later.
