About
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - Viewed through a break in the greenscape around Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, the 19-stories-tall Atlas V launch vehicle roars off the launch pad, propelling the two-ton Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) into a clear blue Florida sky and eventual orbit around Mars. Liftoff was at 7:43 a.m. EDT. All systems performed nominally for NASA's first launch of an Atlas V on an interplanetary mission. MRO established radio contact with controllers 61 minutes after launch and within four minutes of separation from the upper stage. Initial contact came through an antenna at the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Uchinoura Space Center i — NASA KSC · 2005.
