VIDEO: Soyuz rocket in French Guiana animation

by | Oct 16, 2008 | Seradata News | 0 comments

Click through to the extended portion of this blog post to watch a French space agency CNES video showing French Guiana and the construction of the launch pad with an animation of how Soyuz will operate from these facilities located in the French Guianan municipality of Sinnamary

I got this video, in DVD format, in February 2007 when I visited the launch pad on a European Space Agency press trip. I just recently ripped the DVD and converted it into a format our hosting software could use

And below is my own mobile phone quality video I took while I was at the launch pad construction site in 2007
