He told her some bit of detail about adjustments in the launch angle and said, "So you want to be an astronaut."

She was writing notes to herself about the launch angles.

It is used for specialized shots requiring either extreme launch angle, short carry distance and/or no rolling distance after impact.

What's the perfect launch angle for a snowboard jump?

In fiber optic telecommunications, the launch angle has the following meanings:

The pre-ignition burn went on as the launchpads raised the shuttles up to their correct launch angle.

The personnel handling the rockets were trained to define the launch angle to properly affect the curve at which the rocket would land.

"A greater launch angle means a longer time of flight, which might give corners a little more time to get to the ball."

The combination allows for higher launch angles on the long-distance clubs, which gives better distance with slower swing speeds.

I hit the ball fairly low with my woods, so obviously I need more loft to get the ball at a proper launch angle.
