Atlas V Launch

ULA put on quite a show this morning! The best fireworks that I have seen in a while.

​

My cell phone's camera isn't very good. The plume around the rocket was actually an eerie alien green in color.

I was at KSC for the launch! We could see the rocket Liftoff, break the sound barrier, and then the exhaust plume as it hit the rising sunlight was amazing. It was visible until the second stage engine shut off. Incredible!

It's kinda funny, but I think I enjoyed these last two launches a little more because I knew that they both worked out well for you!

Here is another photo. Looks like something that might have been viewed through a microscope.

IgotnothingSon#1 was there working a rocket job and witnessed it. He has gone a long way from "let's put a C6-5 in it".
