Pegasus in Flight
Pegasus in flight refers to the graceful, powerful movement of the Pegasus spacecraft's rocket engine during launch. It’s a small but efficient launch vehicle that provides the necessary thrust to carry payloads into space, particularly on the first stage. When Pegasus launches, it undergoes a controlled burn, where its engines generate high-speed exhaust to propel the rocket upwards, overcoming Earth's gravity. The term emphasizes the dynamic, soaring nature of this launch process, which is carefully engineered for reliability and precision, ensuring payloads, like satellites, reach their intended orbits safely and efficiently.
