It was the sixteenth of nineteen Block IIA GPS satellites to be launched. USA-117 was launched at 00:21:00 UTC on 28 March 1996, atop a Delta II carrier rocket, flight number D234, flying in the 7925-9.5 configuration. The launch took place from Launch Complex 17B at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, and placed USA-117 into a transfer orbit. The satellite raised itself into medium Earth orbit using a Star-37XFP apogee motor. On 27 April 1996, USA-117 was in an orbit with a perigee of kilometre (mi), an apogee of kilometre (mi), a period of 717.96 minutes, and 54.7 degrees of inclination to the equator. It broadcasts the PRN 03 signal, and operates in slot 2 of plane C of the GPS constellation. The satellite has a mass of kilogram (lb). It had a design life of 7.5 years; however, it actually remained in service until August 2, 2014. It was subsequently disposed of and currently resides in a disposal orbit approximately 500km above the operational constellation."@en . . . . . . . "D234"@en . . . . . . . . "USA-117"@en .
