If you pay attention to the sky tonight, you may be able to see a completely new sight above our country. Weather permitting, a rocket launch will be visible from Belgium.
Indeed, it is this Monday evening that Virgin Orbit, the company launching small satellites, is organizing a mission which consists of sending one of their machines into space. If the official take-off will take place in Ireland, around 11:15 p.m., the rocket will cross our country a few minutes later, and if the weather is clear, the inhabitants of West Flanders will be the first to see the rocket, followed by other Belgians, who will also be able to see part of the show.
This rocket will have nine satellites that will be put into orbit around the Earth.
