Re: *Doesn't apply to fireworks

Assuming the commentators on last week's ESA launch knew what they were talking about with the Rokot launch, it isn't possible to abort that once it's got close to being lit, either (launch broadcast 55'30").

Which is slightly worrying, given that it was based on an ICBM. No last minute reprieve there then!.
