Satellite Launch

A satellite launch refers to the process of sending a satellite into space using a launch vehicle, commonly known as a rocket. This event is a critical phase in satellite deployment and involves several essential steps, including preparation, countdown, liftoff, ascent, and deployment of the satellite into its designated orbit. The primary objective of a satellite launch is to place the satellite at a specific altitude and trajectory so that it can carry out its intended functions, such as communication, Earth observation, navigation, or scientific research. The launch is typically conducted from a spaceport and requires careful planning and coordination to ensure safety and mission success.
