The boat will launch today. She was excited to launch the new project.
A collection of short stories fiction
Yes. An example would be a ranged weapon. This is any weapon that can launch a projectile.
The perfect launch zone is in the near center of your gas meter. For example, your gas gauge goes up to 10, but there is a red zone where 8, 9, and 10. Which means the perfect launch zone in that car is around 4 (4.5 being the best).
"Launch" is not an adverb, no.The word "launch" is a verb ("we will launch it into the air") and sometimes a noun ("the launch pad is broken").
Scientific model
T means the Time of launch -- when the launch is planned to happen. T minus is the number of seconds before the rocket is to launch. T minus four seconds and counting means it is four seconds in the sequence of event before launch will occur and progressing toward that launch. T minus four seconds and holding means it is four seconds before launch in the sequence of events that precede launch and the progress toward launch has stopped. The hold/delay can be most any length of time, but once counting begins again it will still be four seconds until launch -- that is, they pick up where they left off and continue toward launch.There are both planned holds (to give everyone time to evaluate things) and unplanned holds when something is wrong. After launch it becomes T plus so many seconds. Actions during launch happen so many seconds after launch. For example, on a Space Shuttle launch, the Solid Rocket Boosters will separate from the Shuttle at T plus so many seconds.

Here's an example: The Vietnamese holiday was an opportune time for the North Koreans to launch an attack on the Allied forces.
It is a little burnt but the launch pad is designed to take extreme heat and pressure created by the space shuttle. If it wasn't, they would have to make a new launch pad every launch and those things are worth a pretty penny...
Pole Vaulting. Absorbing the impact, transferring it into the pole, and using it in return at launch you over the obstacle.
Yes. Often an application might launch another application as a helper, for example iTunesHelper.exe.
