The Odyssey Launch Platform is fully stocked with "people, parts and paper" and is ready to depart for the launch site at the equator. XM Satellite Radio representatives gather on a deck of the Sea Launch Commander for a bird's eye view of the departure - (L-R) Jeffrey Snyder, Scott Vandoeselaar and Barry Fagan |
|
Our Russian and Ukrainian partners proudly display their national flags as the traditional Russian departure music plays over the loud speaker system... |
|
... and the Odyssey gracefully moves away from the pier... |
|
...and out of the port.
