Улетела.
Вот что нашел на тему насколько "прибыльный" космос.

The satellite was built at a cost of US$220 million with the launching rocket operations taking up US$50 million and US$32 million for insurance.

Dr Ebadi said the investment in Measat-1 and Measat-2 began to pay off only from the eighth year of its 12-year lifespan.

"So the money to be made from such satellites would be just about enough for operators like us to finance the acquisition of a replacement satellite with the cash flow generated from a business such as pay TV and others.
