Chang'e I will lift off on schedule today
Adjust font size:

Chang'e I is expected to blast off as scheduled late this afternoon. This morning's heavy downpour will not affect launch plans, according to a scientist at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center. China.org.cn has a reporter on site at Xichang, Sichuan Province.

At 4 AM, a heavy downpour struck Xichang, where China's first moon orbiter Chang'e I awaits lift off. Fortunately, after two and half hours the rain abated; at 7:10 AM the rain stopped. Currently, the skies are clear above the launch center.

A group of journalists from China and abroad have clustered near the launch pad for several days now. Tourists here are also eager to watch the magnificent scene. When the first drops of rain fell on the ground everyone worried about today's anticipated launch.

But after contacting a scientist at the launch center, reporters were told that everything is on schedule so far. As long as any further rain remains light and no thunder and lightning occurs, the Chang'e I will blast off at about 6 PM as scheduled.

Previously, scientists announced that the satellite would be launched between October 24 and 26. Their first choice was around 6 PM on October 24. A 30-minute launch window exists for this date. Also, similar slots would be available on two alternate days.

Numerous factors must be taken into account when choosing the launch window. In addition to weather conditions at the launch site, lunar conditions must also be considered. If all these conditions are not correct during these three earmarked days, the satellite will be sent into orbit early next year, a scientist said via telephone.
