A Flawless Liftoff<\/strong> Right on schedule, the rocket executed its launch sequence perfectly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Main Engine Cutoff:<\/strong> Eight and a half minutes after liftoff, the core stage completed its burn, separated from the upper stage, and began its descent toward a planned ocean splashdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Booster Separation:<\/strong> About two minutes into the flight, the twin solid rocket boosters exhausted their fuel and safely detached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Core Stage Propulsion:<\/strong> The immense task of pushing the spacecraft forward then passed to the four powerful engines of the core stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
