UPDATE: Lansarea rachetei Vega s-a incheiat cu succes. Separarea Nanosatelitul GOLIAT a avut loc la T0 + 4236 secunde (13:12 ora Romaniei).
Luni, 13 Februarie 2012, in intervalul orar 10:00-12:00 GMT va avea loc lansarea inaugurala a rachetei Vega a Agentiei Spatiale Europene (ESA), de la baza de lansare Kourou din Guiana Franceza. Unul dintre pasagerii acestui zbor va fi GOLIAT, primul nanosatelit romanesc, dezvoltat de o echipa de cercetare condusa de Agentia Spatiala Romana (ROSA).
Satelitul GOLIAT este dezvoltat in conformitate cu standardul international CubeSat. si isi propune realizarea de imagini de inaltă rezolutie, de măsurări ale dozei de radiatii si ale fluxului de micrometeoroizi. Datele vor fi transferate statiile de sol pentru analiza si diseminare stiintifică.
Lansarea va fi transmisa live prin satelit si on-line.

 Vostok 1 a fost primul zbor spatial din cadrul programului Vostok si primul zbor spatial uman din istorie. Nava spatiala Vostok 3KA a fost lansata pe data de 12 aprilie 1961. Zborul l-a purtat pe Yuri Gagarin, un cosmonaut din Uniunea Sovietica, in spatiu. Acest zbor a marcat intrarea pentru prima oara a unui om in spatiul extraterestru si totodata primul zbor orbital al unui vehicul cu echipaj uman. Vostok 1 a fost lansat de programul spatial Sovietic si a fost proiectat de inigineri sovietici condusi de Sergey Korolyov.
