Explanation:

hey ❤❤

We pick the time of launch (in Deep Space 1's case, early morning) to give the rocket time to accelerate as it goes partway around Earth.

Then, when the spacecraft is headed in the same direction as Earth's orbital motion around the sun, the rocket gives it a final boost out of Earth orbit and on its way.

Hope it will be help ful for u❤✌

Answer:

hey mate here is your answer:

Explanation:

Speed boost from the Earth's rotation

“The west-to-east rotation of the Earth causes all points on Earth (except the poles themselves) to move eastward with some velocity,” NASA said. This eastward velocity is greatest at the equator with the Earth rotating at a speed of roughly 1,040 mph.

Rockets Go East:

An East Coast location was desirable because any rockets leaving Earth's surface and traveling eastward get a boost from the Earth's spin. A West Coast location would either send rockets over populated areas or have to contend with launching against the direction of the spin.
