Good Morning Britain’s weather presenter Laura Tobin is in Kourou, French Guiana, reporting on the Juice mission launch.
Ahead of the launch, Laura needed to change out of her red outfit because it is considered a “sign of warning.”
She explained that the only superstition that the European Space Agency has is not to have red in the mission control centre because the screens need to be green, which symbolizes “go” for launch
In a message to her 164,000 followers on Instagram, Laura revealed that she would not be wearing the red dress for the launch day.
She said, “Note to self.
Do not wear red on launch day.”
Laura has been regularly updating fans on what she has been getting up to in South America, but some of her followers have criticized her for being “tone-deaf.”
Despite preaching about climate change, she traveled to South America, and some viewers accused her of being a “hypocrite.”
They claimed that her jollies are getting ridiculous, and they are not wanted by the vast majority of viewers.
One viewer wrote, “Don’t preach climate change to us Laura!!!” Another said, “Good to see Laura the explorer saving her carbon footprint by flying out to French Guiana to speak about space exploration.”
Laura has been reporting live from South America during her appearances on GMB, where she discussed the launch in more detail with presenters Richard Madeley and Charlotte Hawkins.
She said that everything is on track to go completely well, and the spacecraft is expected to begin its eight-year journey to explore Jupiter’s Moons.
She added that scientists believe they have enough energy, the right elements, water, and a stable environment to harbor life on Ganymede.
