Prof. V.G.Gurzadyan as a member of science team of LARES participated the events in Guiana Space Center linked to the launch of the mission. LARES liftoff was performed at the qualification launch of European Space Agency\u2019s new rocket VEGA, a three-stage solidpropellant launcher, the 3 one, to follow Ariane 5 dedicated for larger payloads and geosynchronous orbits, thus inaugurating a new capability in Europe\u2019s growing launcher family :<\/span>
