English term

launched

Homework / test English to Spanish Other Environment & Ecology GENETICS
I momentarily digress to some human examples of how powerful this chemistry can be: Anthony and Cleopatra; Helen of Troy, the face that launched a thousand ships; Monica Lewinsky, and President Bill Clinton. In all of these instances, men threw all reason out the window simply to breed with a specific female. Tens of thousands of people were killed in wars, empires shifted, and more – all for the right for one male animal to breed with one female animal. Sounds much worse than the walrus battles, eh?

lanzó a la guerra

Creo que hay que ir por una redacción más libre (Es la guerra de Troya)
"El hermoso rostro que lanzó a miles de barcos a la guerra", diría yo.
