Here is a life size copy of a new generation Glonass K satellite, being exhibited at the ninth economic forum in the russian siberian city of Krasnoyarsk.

Amazing how propellents have developed, just 2 years ago that little rocket on that satellites back would never have reached orbit.

Is this the "Madonna" model?

It looks like an old 386, with antennas and solar panels!:-/

When another satellite gets too close, does it honk the big black horn?

Ours look remarkable similar. Maybe form follows funtion or they just decided to not reinvent the wheel.
The artist's rendering of the satellite in flight even shows the giant black horn.
