A satellite launch is the process of sending a satellite into space using a rocket. This involves several stages, including preparation, liftoff, and deployment into orbit. The satellite is typically housed in a protective structure called a fairing until the rocket reaches a certain altitude. Once in space, the satellite is released to begin its mission, which can include communication, weather monitoring, or scientific research. The launch is carefully planned and executed by teams of engineers and scientists. They use various types of rockets, such as the Falcon 9 or Ariane 5, to ensure the satellite reaches its intended orbit. Successful launches are crucial for advancing technology and improving our understanding of the Earth and beyond.
