[VIPER #REXUS23 @viper_rexus]

#rexus23 successfully launched

[VIPER #REXUS23 @viper_rexus]

Here's the Launch of #rexus23 as seen on the Livestream.

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

TESOS is powered and receiving data. All nominal.

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

@viper_rexus temperatures are within the "go" range - no new late access necessary

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

@viper_rexus might have to repeat the late access as the ice probes are heating up. Not decided yet.

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

Countdown is running again. T-49 minutes
#rx23

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

Unexpected CD hold at T-50 min due to additional launcher preparations

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

The RBF locking pin of team #ARES is removed. ARES is now in flight mode and ready for lift-off
#rx23

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

Late access procedure almost completed. The rocket is now in full flight configuration.

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

@viper_rexus is now starting the late access procedure inserting their ice probe through a hatch inside their module

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

The launcher building is heated until the late access of team @viper_rexus. We measured a module temperature of +13 to +17°C during test power on. Outside temperature is currently -26°C

[TESOS_RX @TESOS_RX]

Test power on was successful.
