Clips from Vega-C VV29 launch campaign.
Vega-C is a single-body rocket nearly 35 m tall with that weighs 210 tonnes on the launch pad.
Smile (the Solar wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer) is a joint mission between the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). Smile will use four science instruments to study how Earth responds to the solar wind from the Sun. In doing so, Smile will improve our understanding of solar storms, geomagnetic storms and the science of space weather.
