Now the applause.
Launch Video
I am so glad to see that the Chinese government has allowed us to watch this launch live. So open! They have taken a page from NASA's book. I love it! I hope this continues with future launches.
Why do they separate the boosters from the first stage if 1-2 sep is at the same time? To make sure there is no thrust imbalance? But then S1 does have 4 engines, too, 4 engines should rather help to level these.
