Following the selection of 9 cubesats to be launched on the maiden flight of the Vega launcher, ESA have now announced that the cubesats will be deployed into a very interesting orbit measuring 350km x 1450km with an inclination of 71 degrees.
From the ESA website
"The nine CubeSats will be deployed from three different deployment systems mounted on the support structure of the main payload, LARES (LAser RElativity Satellite), into an orbit of 350 km by 1450 km at an inclination of 71 degrees. The launch opportunity is offered by ESA to the selected CubeSats free of charge"
