Luc, >>A bit confused here is it ARISSat-1 or Kedr? Yes. :) Also RadioSkaf-V. They all refer to the same thing.

The satellite has different names depending on the country providing the news release as the name has evolved. First it was SuitSat-2 which became ARISSat-1 on the USA side since there was no longer a Suit but the Russians maintained the variant RadioSkaf-B (radio suit 2). Recently, they decided to commemorate Gagarin's flight and started calling it KEDR (Gagarin's callsign) so you will see multiple names for the same satellite. Hopefully, it will get a number and we can all call it the same thing then.
