Summary
| Description |
Galileo launch on Soyuz VS01 on 21 October 2011, from ELS launch complex in Guiana Space Centre.
Four launch support arms holding the rocket are being released, with sublimating ice from the rocket blown away by the wind. One of four tall lightning safety towers is visible in a background on a left, and a shorter light masts are visible on a very left and right. Exhaust fumes deflected by the flame trench are in a top-right part of the frame, backlit brown and orange. |
