A new European rocket will make its debut today (July 13), and you can watch the action live.

Vega C, a medium-lift rocket operated by French company Arianespace, is scheduled to lift off from Europe's Spaceport in Kourou

It will be the first-ever mission for the four-stage Vega C, which is significantly more powerful than the original Vega rocket

The new variant can haul 2.3 tons of payload to a polar orbit about 435 miles (700 kilometers) above Earth,

The new version also has a larger fairing — the protective shell that surrounds satellites during launch

"The purpose of the mission is to measure the so-called frame-dragging effect, a distortion of space-time caused by the rotation of a massive body
