Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on February 2 instructed the country's state space agency to ensure the launch of a satellite in 2021, timed to coincide with the 30th anniversary of Ukraine's independence. Despite the fact that the Sich-2-30 apparatus was assembled back in 2019, its launch will eventually take place after Zelensky's deadline – January 10, 2022.

The satellite will go into orbit using a Falcon rocket 9 by SpaceX. The agreement with SpaceX became known on March 5, 2021, the cost of launching a satellite for Ukraine was one million dollars.
