The launcher's capabilities plus the fact that SPOT 4 must be placed in precisely the required orbit result in a launch window of just 9 minutes per day. During this time, launcher, satellite and a global array of ground facilities (radars, data transmission networks, optical tracking and range safety equipment, TT&C stations, computers and other facilities in Toulouse), must all be ready to do their respective jobs. When all is in order . . . and provided the weather in Kourou is clement, the indicators in the main control room remain green and the countdown proceeds normally.
