Summary

[edit]
Description
English: In 2021, Webb was carefully folded up and loaded onto a ship, which passed through the Panama Canal on its way to French Guiana in South America, where it reached its launch site at the European Spaceport located near Kourou. It is beneficial for launch sites to be located near the equator: The spin of the Earth can help give an additional push to the rocket.
