Re: Astra 1L launch coverage
If you watch the launch tomorrow night dont expect the Ariane to lift off at zero. The centre liquid motor fires at zero, but then has to check out correctly for a few seconds before the solid fuel boosters are lit up. The boosters fire at +7 seconds, and they provide the extra thrust to get her off the ground - then she flies
 The Arianes are unusual in this respect in that they dont lift off at zero.
