The vehicle is now in a 5-hour coast period, during which we will have nothing to report. The 4th burn is scheduled to start around 5:07 pm EST or 22:07 GMT. Separation of Yamal 402 spacecraft is scheduled to follow the 4th burn completion by about 12 minutes.

Yamal 402 | Second Burn

As the Breeze M upper stage of our Proton M rocket continues its climb into space with the Yamal 402 satellite onboard, we have received confirmation that the 2nd burn of the upper stage occurred and shut down as scheduled.
The next events are scheduled for about 2 hours from now. The Breeze M upper stage will ignite for a 3rd time and burn for approximately 17 minutes; after that the additional propellant tank will be jettisoned. All this will happen in a span of almost 20 minutes while the vehicle is again out of range of a ground station. We should reacquire the vehicle shortly after the APT is jettisoned.
