Arianespace said July 18 that it would announce the new launch date for Shin Satellite Plc's IPStar satellite during the week of July 25. The satellite originally was slated for launch from Arianespace's French Guiana launch site July 8, but that date was pushed back to July 11 to allow for the completion of launch readiness reviews. During that delay, an anomaly with the ground equipment used to prepare the Ariane 5 rocket was discovered, further delaying the launch.
