Elektron is a little bit like GRAIL, there are two satellites (Elektron-A and Elektron-B) launched by one rocket into different orbits, each satellite studies a different part of the radiation belt. Although the program only lasted for four spacecraft and two launches, there is plenty of information for these two spacecraft.

General Information:
Name | Gross Mass | Picture
Elektron-A (Elektron I)|340 kg (740 lb)|

Elektron-B (Elektron II)|444 kg (978 lb)|
