Later, when Kaldur'ahm's troops attacked the rocket. Ferris shortened the countdown and the rocket was launched. The Team managed to beat back the attack, but the rocket was stopped nonetheless because Black Manta had smuggled a bomb aboard.

Background information

• The episode "Depths" makes the common error of placing the Center at Cape Canaveral. In fact, Cape Canaveral is home to the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, with the Kennedy Space Center located on nearby Merritt Island. The two bases are closely linked, so it is possible the satellite was launched from the Cape Canaveral Station with the mission controlled from Kennedy Space Center, as was the case for early Apollo missions, for example.
