Those flames are the fuel propelling the rocket, which, after burning, are ejected to push the rocket towards space.

The intensity of the flames ejected from the nozzle gradually increases, soon reaching the level necessary to launch the rocket.

Everything is normal at the rocket's nozzle, and the thrust is up to standard, ready for launch.

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Xiao Peng turned to Jiang Cheng and said, "You can give the countdown launch command, anyway it's just counting down, it doesn't matter who does it."

After hearing Peng's words, Jiang Cheng did not decline, and directly picked up the microphone to prepare to give the command.

Jiang Cheng was quite interested in launching rockets. In his previous life, he had conducted many space launches.

But at that time, they were already launching spaceships; Jiang Cheng had never dealt with such outdated things as rockets. After taking over the command, Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and then issued the final launch command into the microphone.

Countdown five seconds to launch!

Five!

Four!

As Jiang Cheng continued to count down, everyone became tense.

Whether the rocket could successfully launch would be determined in the next few seconds.

Time would not stop for their nervousness as Jiang Cheng's voice continued to echo in the hall.

Launch!

As soon as Jiang Cheng uttered the word "Launch," the bottom nozzle of the rocket suddenly spewed out a large amount of flames.

With those flames came a large amount of smoke and dust, enveloping the entire launch site.

Then the rocket slowly began to ascend, and the launch pad holding the rocket was retracted.

The flames at the rocket's tail grew larger, and the rocket's speed increased as it soared into the sky.

Everyone could see on the display screen that the rocket was starting to vibrate.

As this vibration reached its highest point, the rocket had flown halfway up into the sky.

After a while, the vibration of the rocket suddenly stopped, which meant its speed had reached the maximum.

At that point, the rocket had reached the sky, entering a stable flight phase.

The rocket flew smoothly in the sky, as the tail continued to emit flames, and its speed became faster and faster.

Soon, the rocket's speed increased enough to leave Earth, rising far into the sky.

By this time, the rocket disappeared from the display screen; because it was too far away, it was difficult to capture imagery.

From now on, only the radar could show the rocket's current position.

The largest display screen in the hall switched from the live feed

to a computer-simulated animation, showing the rocket's position and the simulated flight state after detection.

From the screen, it could be seen that the rocket's operation was stable, the flight posture was well maintained, with no incidents occurring.

Seeing the current status of the rocket, Xiao Peng exhaled deeply; generally speaking, launching a rocket to this stage, almost guarantees success.

The easiest time for accidents is at the beginning. After that, hardly any problems occurred.

From now on, all that was needed was to wait for the rocket to reach the orbit, then separate the micro-satellite from the rocket.

Finally, with a slight adjustment to the micro-satellite's orbit, the entire launch process would be completed.

This mission was very important to Xiao, after all, his idol Jiang Cheng was watching from the side; if the launch failed, it would be embarrassing for him.

Now that the rocket had reached this point, Xiao Lu finally relaxed his tense heart.

Although Xiao could relax a bit now, he still didn't dare to completely let his guard down.

The subsequent work still required his leadership; he was essential here.

All units keep monitoring the rocket's condition, report any occurrences to me immediately.

Xiao kept inquiring with the technicians about the rocket's current situation, caring about various data.

Now they could no longer capture footage of the rocket; they could only infer the rocket's current state from various data, thereby taking corresponding measures.

The rocket's current speed was very fast, far beyond what the naked eye could observe.

Only at such higher speed could the rocket escape Earth's gravity and fly to its designated orbit.

With such high speed, the rocket quickly passed through the troposphere, reaching the stratosphere.

Strictly speaking, the stratosphere can already be considered as space.

However, some thin atmosphere was still present, so technically, it was still within Earth.

After the rocket crossed the stratosphere, it could reach real outer space.

The rocket's flight destination for this mission was an orbit in outer space.

After the rocket reached the stratosphere, Xiao Peng began to get busy again.

Prepare for the first stage rocket separation!

This involved separation of the lower part of the rocket, discarding the first stage, and carrying the other parts into space.

The reason for separation was that the first stage rocket's fuel was exhausted and it had become nothing but an empty shell.

Carrying these empty rocket parts was a burden for the still-ascending rocket.

The larger the weight, the more fuel that had to be consumed. Reducing weight was what needed to be done now.

It was better to discard these useless parts, using a lighter weight to break free of Earth's gravity.

First stage rocket ready for separation, all data normal to proceed with separation.

The separation work of the first stage rocket started quickly and a technician first reported the situation of the rocket.

Then, Xiao Peng issued the first stage rocket separation command.

Initiate first stage rocket separation!

With Xiao Peng's order issued, many technicians began operating remotely.

They had to control the rocket in the air from the ground, separating the first stage from the main body.

Quickly, the rocket flying in the air responded, the lower first stage gradually separated from the main body.

After losing the thrust provided by the boosters, these separated parts started falling towards the ground.

However, it was difficult for these fragments to reach the ground, as they experienced severe friction with the air, and began to burn fiercely in mid-air.

Soon, a meteor appeared in the sky, formed when the first stage rocket fell.

With the rocket's main body lighter in weight, its speed increased a lot, flying towards its destination.

Finally, after a period of flight, the rocket successfully reached its destination and released the micro-satellite it carried.

With Jiang Cheng's micro-satellite successfully entering the predetermined orbit, the launch could be declared a complete success.

When the signal of the micro-satellite appeared on the display screen, the inside of the hall burst into cheers.

They all knew that their efforts had not been in vain, the rocket had been successfully launched.

Many technicians hugged each other in excitement, celebrating this success.

Every rocket launch is a difficult challenge, so successful launches are always worth celebrating for them.

Jiang Cheng, looking at the people celebrating below, was also infected by the atmosphere.

Even Jiang Cheng, a person usually calm, couldn't suppress a smile on his face.

"This is truly a great moment!" Jiang Cheng muttered to himself.
