Nice launch, nice sound, beautiful :)

It' just that none of the live windows media links worked here, and i couldn't get tsenki to play full-screen ... :|

I still have some things to check, but if anyone has a hint .. ?

btw.
Krunichev doesn't like me, i got no password after successful registration .. ?
They have a very neat launch monitoring interface, by some Sweeden company, i think, yummy, would like to see that :)

These Russian launches are always more or less troublesome what comes to streaming video... Sometimes it works really well (at least here in finland), but sometimes is has so much of latency and compression errors that it is not worth of watching. Their official launch videos make justice to how beutiful machines these are... In most cases the unofficial Youtube videos recorded from the stream are pretty crappy.

If the shuttle launches are not counted I think the Proton launches could me the most beautifil ones I know. But of course every rockect launch are intresting enough for me to watch. :)
