1 00:00:07,510 --> 00:00:05,910 all right we're into the final 60 2 00:00:08,710 --> 00:00:07,520 seconds of the first launch of the year 3 00:00:10,870 --> 00:00:08,720 remember you can follow all the action 4 00:00:12,709 --> 00:00:10,880 on the website you have the uh address 5 00:00:14,310 --> 00:00:12,719 right there the ignition sequence tell 6 00:00:17,269 --> 00:00:14,320 us about that alex you'll hear the ddo 7 00:00:19,269 --> 00:00:17,279 call out alimaj 8 00:00:21,590 --> 00:00:19,279 you'll see the flame under the main 9 00:00:23,269 --> 00:00:21,600 engine vulcan so we shall ignite the uh 10 00:00:24,870 --> 00:00:23,279 the engine and check it for seven 11 00:00:26,230 --> 00:00:24,880 seconds that's the main engine that's 12 00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:26,240 the main engine and when it's 13 00:00:30,470 --> 00:00:28,480 everything's fine and with the the check 14 00:00:33,350 --> 00:00:30,480 is okay then the ignition of the 15 00:00:35,030 --> 00:00:33,360 boosters and the actual liftoff 16 00:00:36,790 --> 00:00:35,040 okay so you get main engine lights up 17 00:00:38,470 --> 00:00:36,800 first computers check out for seven 18 00:00:41,110 --> 00:00:38,480 seconds all the pressure testing on the 19 00:00:43,670 --> 00:00:41,120 ground and then the boosters go we'll 20 00:00:45,270 --> 00:00:43,680 let the ddo call out the final countdown 21 00:01:10,789 --> 00:00:45,280 and be back after aryan has cleared the 22 00:01:10,799 --> 00:01:35,190 decollege 23 00:01:40,230 --> 00:01:37,749 beautiful area off on our way with just 24 00:01:42,630 --> 00:01:40,240 a 24-hour delay leaving a trail of gold 25 00:01:45,749 --> 00:01:42,640 as she rises into the sky over a french 26 00:01:47,749 --> 00:01:45,759 vienna at 1851 local time and right on 27 00:01:50,069 --> 00:01:47,759 time marianne began her mission and 28 00:01:51,310 --> 00:01:50,079 right on time so we had a mass at 29 00:01:55,670 --> 00:01:51,320 liftoff of 30 00:01:56,709 --> 00:01:55,680 773 tons including 554 tons for the soul 31 00:02:00,950 --> 00:01:56,719 boosters 32 00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:00,960 initial acceleration that will increase 33 00:02:07,030 --> 00:02:03,840 velocity from zero to seven thousand two 34 00:02:09,270 --> 00:02:07,040 hundred kilometers per hour in about two 35 00:02:11,350 --> 00:02:09,280 point three minutes that's four thousand 36 00:02:13,350 --> 00:02:11,360 thousand miles per hour 37 00:02:15,350 --> 00:02:13,360 so after booster separation which will 38 00:02:17,910 --> 00:02:15,360 occur in about two minutes uh the 39 00:02:20,790 --> 00:02:17,920 launcher will have lost about 75 percent 40 00:02:23,750 --> 00:02:20,800 of its lift of mass the boosters will 41 00:02:25,830 --> 00:02:23,760 fall down into the atlantic ocean 42 00:02:28,150 --> 00:02:25,840 in a zone which has been secured by an 43 00:02:29,430 --> 00:02:28,160 international advice to american 44 00:02:32,150 --> 00:02:29,440 navigation 45 00:02:34,309 --> 00:02:32,160 arian burning now five tons of fuel per 46 00:02:37,190 --> 00:02:34,319 second that's two and a half tons in 47 00:02:38,949 --> 00:02:37,200 each booster per second the epc also the 48 00:02:41,670 --> 00:02:38,959 core stage as it's called is burning 49 00:02:43,830 --> 00:02:41,680 another 300 kilos of fuel per second all 50 00:02:46,869 --> 00:02:43,840 that adds up to roughly the equivalent 51 00:02:49,030 --> 00:02:46,879 of a dozen airbuses she's now following 52 00:02:50,390 --> 00:02:49,040 the program in the onboard computer 53 00:02:53,509 --> 00:02:50,400 which gives all the orders including 54 00:02:55,670 --> 00:02:53,519 stage separations which we will soon see 55 00:02:57,509 --> 00:02:55,680 four powered flight phases tonight we're 56 00:02:59,110 --> 00:02:57,519 in the first one the main engine and the 57 00:03:01,030 --> 00:02:59,120 boosters and the boosters as alex said 58 00:03:03,270 --> 00:03:01,040 they're going to burn for another maybe 59 00:03:04,710 --> 00:03:03,280 20 seconds 60 00:03:05,990 --> 00:03:04,720 alex take a look on the left the upper 61 00:03:08,869 --> 00:03:06,000 left screen can you give us a 62 00:03:09,990 --> 00:03:08,879 description of the curve please 63 00:03:12,390 --> 00:03:10,000 we see the 64 00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:12,400 simulated flight trajectory which is 65 00:03:16,550 --> 00:03:14,560 computed by using very accurate 66 00:03:19,750 --> 00:03:16,560 mathematical models of the launcher and 67 00:03:21,750 --> 00:03:19,760 the atv and by application of course of 68 00:03:23,190 --> 00:03:21,760 the keplerian laws for the ballistic 69 00:03:29,270 --> 00:03:23,200 phase which we're going to hear about a 70 00:03:32,869 --> 00:03:31,750 ddo has just called out the separation 71 00:03:33,990 --> 00:03:32,879 of the boosters you can see what that 72 00:03:36,070 --> 00:03:34,000 looks like there's another one at a 73 00:03:38,470 --> 00:03:36,080 camera range on the left but they fall 74 00:03:42,070 --> 00:03:38,480 back down right on time at about 64 75 00:03:45,589 --> 00:03:43,830 they fall away from the shore people 76 00:03:47,589 --> 00:03:45,599 streaming back in from the terrace as 77 00:03:49,990 --> 00:03:47,599 you can see in the background there 78 00:03:51,270 --> 00:03:50,000 that's not to follow the the actual 79 00:03:53,509 --> 00:03:51,280 flight 80 00:03:55,990 --> 00:03:53,519 and now we're expecting the uh fairing 81 00:03:57,429 --> 00:03:56,000 separation that's the next milestone 82 00:03:58,949 --> 00:03:57,439 you can see the cursor crawling up on 83 00:04:01,910 --> 00:03:58,959 the upper left i don't know if you can 84 00:04:03,830 --> 00:04:01,920 read it says separation of the fairing 85 00:04:06,550 --> 00:04:03,840 on the lower left alex can you uh 86 00:04:08,550 --> 00:04:06,560 describe what the bottom line is 87 00:04:10,869 --> 00:04:08,560 yes we have the real-time information 88 00:04:13,750 --> 00:04:10,879 from the launcher of the uh 89 00:04:14,869 --> 00:04:13,760 velocity and the altitude and also the 90 00:04:17,030 --> 00:04:14,879 uh 91 00:04:19,189 --> 00:04:17,040 angle of the telemetry antenna with 92 00:04:20,870 --> 00:04:19,199 respect to horizontal 93 00:04:23,430 --> 00:04:20,880 so you see the altitude 94 00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:23,440 the the altitude is 102 kilometers 95 00:04:26,629 --> 00:04:24,880 that's the second line so we're above 96 00:04:28,950 --> 00:04:26,639 the atmosphere which is where we can 97 00:04:32,390 --> 00:04:28,960 separate the fairing and the ddo will 98 00:04:34,310 --> 00:04:32,400 call out that milestone in a moment 99 00:04:35,270 --> 00:04:34,320 we are in this second 100 00:04:38,710 --> 00:04:35,280 there it is 101 00:04:40,870 --> 00:04:38,720 we don't need the the protection of the 102 00:04:43,510 --> 00:04:40,880 fairing anymore we have 103 00:04:46,150 --> 00:04:43,520 crossed the atmospheric layers and then 104 00:04:47,590 --> 00:04:46,160 now we don't need these uh two tons 105 00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:47,600 weight anymore 106 00:04:50,469 --> 00:04:49,040 they're actually two halves one half 107 00:04:52,150 --> 00:04:50,479 like one of the boosters before was on 108 00:04:54,550 --> 00:04:52,160 yeah it's cut vertically 109 00:04:56,150 --> 00:04:54,560 horizontally 110 00:04:58,469 --> 00:04:56,160 everything is perfect on board says the 111 00:04:59,830 --> 00:04:58,479 ddo the atv now under the fairing
