NASA's Aurora 7: one minute to launch

The video tutorial covers a comprehensive checklist for preparing a missile launch. It begins with verifying the capsule and pilot systems, ensuring all systems are operational and marked by green lights. The process continues with arming the safety pin and initiating a countdown. The missile is prepared by switching helium to internal and ensuring range readiness. An engine test is conducted, followed by data checks and pressurization verification. Final system checks include water system and speed operation, ensuring all pre-start panel lights are green. The tutorial concludes with the completion of missile preparation, indicated by a green light.
