00:00Engine 10, pumps at flight speed.
00:04Booster ignition now at full throttle and liftoff.
00:08Menin, Dubrov, and Kikane now on their way to the International Space Station as part of a two-orbit journey.
00:17All the system parameters are nominal.
00:20We have a good roll, pitch, and yaw as we head downrange.
00:27Engines of the first and second stage are functioning normally.
00:33We have confirmation that the first and second stage engines have good performance.
00:39We have good structural parameter performance, and the Soyuz is delivering 930,000 pounds of thrust from its four boosters
00:48in single engine.
00:49The first stage of the Soyuz measures 68 feet in length and 24 feet in diameter, burning liquid fuel for
00:56the first two minutes and six seconds of flight.
00:59We're now a minute into today's flight.
01:03Everything continuing to proceed as planned, and the velocity is currently 1100 miles per hour.
01:19We're now a minute and 20 seconds into today's flight of the Soyuz MS-29 spacecraft on top of that
01:26Soyuz 2.1A booster.
01:28We still have good first stage performance.
01:32Ready to report the exact launch time.
01:53We're now a minute and 54 seconds into today's flight.
01:57So the escape tower has been jettisoned, and momentarily, there we see there, the four strap-on boosters have been
02:04jettisoned,
02:05and these have completed their job and have dropped away at an altitude of 28 statute miles.
02:10The Soyuz is now traveling at about 3,350 miles an hour, and there you can see on your screen
02:17as those four strap-on boosters were jettisoned.
02:21Again, everything continuing to proceed as planned.
02:24We are receiving good reports of the structural performance of the Soyuz as it continues its ride uphill.
