SPACEX

600th Falcon 9 flight, Launched tonight from Vandenberg-And we saw it!
Interesting Outcome!
High altitude wind currents change the straight rocket plume into artwork. When the wind's speed and direction change with altitude, the rocket's mostly-straight exhaust got blown in different directions as the rocket climbs. The wind in the upper atmosphere was blowing the frozen water vapor and other particles from the launch turns into a v-day masterpiece!!!

The 1st stage booster lands on OCISLY, the Autonomous Spaceport Drone Ship stationed in the Pacific Ocean off Baja California West of Isla Guadalupe.Weiterlesen
