  • SpaceX's Falcon 9, a rocket carrying satellites, launched shortly before 5:30 p.m. Friday from Vandenberg Air Force Base on the coast and provided a spectacular view all the way to Bakersfield.
    Eyewitness News' Jeff Platt provided commentary as the rocket streaked across the night sky.

      Yes in deed, the news guy is really educated on rocket launches lol
      I am surprised he didn't at least get an overview of what's really happening like main engine cut off at about 2:50 and separation of the first stage as it started its return to the pad. Then the second stage firing. Instead "it hits another thrust set there".
      He really seemed to be out of his element, glad he enjoyed the launch. Definitely 2017 News Guy award material.
      Cheers

      The ancient Philosophers argued amongst themselves about what the primordial substance of All things is - some said Fire, others said Water, others said Air, which behaves just like a finer type of Water - and if you look at certain geological formations you can see how the layers of Earth and rock behave similar to the manner by which water behaves, making lovely designs of swirls and twists that take place over thousands and millions of years rather than in a few seconds.
      All things in the universe resemble one another, we can see similar behavior watching different viscosities in the air interact with each other (say a stream of incense smoke in a room with an ever slight breeze) as we do pouring different coloured liquids in a glass of cool clear water 🌊

    Timeline of what is happening:
    1:02 - Liftoff
    2:35 - Gets high enough that it is being lit by the Sun directly again. That's why the exhaust plume suddenly gets really bright, and stays bright. It is WELL above the clouds at this point.
    2:50 - MECO. Main Engine Cut Off. The turn off the 9 engines on the 1st stage booster and coast for just a couple seconds during which the 2nd stage separates from the 1st stage.
    2:56 - SSI. Second Stage Ignition. The 2nd stage will now continue to carry the payload (satellites to orbit).
    3:15 - there are two horizontal v shapes. The one on the left is the 2nd stage, the one on the right is the 1st stage turning around. The bursts of white from it are the cold-nitrogen gas thrusters they use to orient it. When they fire directly toward the camera they look like a ring shape.
    3:22 - The plume of exhaust from the 2nd stage is MUCH wider than from the 1st stage and that is because there isn't as much air pressure at that altitude keeping it in a narrow channel. So it expands into more of a cone.
    3:41 - Fairing Separation. The fairing is the nose cone on top of the rocket that protects the payload. When it gets to this point there isn't enough atmosphere to need to protect the payload any more and so the fairing is just dead weight slowing it down. So they jettison it in 2 pieces. You can see a faint dot appear just to the right of the 2nd stage. That's one of the fairing halves. Both are visible shortly. They fall back to Earth. SpaceX is working at recovering them using ships with gigantic nets on them. They deploy parasails and glide down and the ships maneuver under them and catch them. They have actually recently reflown a fairing for the first time ever. That saves them about $5 million per launch if they can get this down.
    4:40 - Both fairing halves visible. They drift in and out of visibility because while the outsides are painted which, the inside is black. So as they spin and fall they reflect sunlight sometimes and not others.
    You don't see it in this video but there is a drone shot overlooking downtown LA of this same launch, and you can see the entry burn on the 1st stage as it relights its engines to slow itself down as it re-enters the thicker lower atmosphere. At this point the grid fins are out and they use them to help steer and slow down the 1st stage. This particular booster landed on one of SpaceX's autonomous drone ships out in the Pacific. About 15 seconds before landing they light the engines again, deploy the landing legs and drop the speed to 0 mph right as they touch down. It's called a Hover Slam. Because it slams into the ground right as it starts to hover.

      @mycroft16 Před rokem +2

      @@UStride The rocket only goes straight up for about the first 500 feet. After that it is already going sideways. That's why you'll hear the call-out "vehicle is pitching downrange." It doesn't just go up, stop and turn sideways. That's not how gravity or physics work at all. In order to reach orbit it needs to build up a horizontal velocity that matches the pull of gravity so that it "falls" around the Earth. If the payload is going to a geostationary orbit it needs to go faster so that when the payload is deployed it can have the energy to transfer out to the larger orbit.
      The atmosphere is thickest down here near the ground with us... as the rocket builds up significant velocity early on, through the thick part of the atmosphere, pressure on the vehicle builds up to a maximum at about 5 miles altitude. The slow the engines a bit as it passes through this, then they push the throttle back up and really tilt the rocket over more. The goal is to get through this thickest part as quickly as possible. During the day you can see the pressure build up around the fairing of the rocket as a visible vapor cone, much light jets as they approach the sound barrier. The extreme pressure difference between the air right around the vehicle and just next to it causes a huge cooling (adiabatic cooling) which condenses water vapor into a cloud right in that region.

      Why don't all satellite lauches look like that? And what was trailing in the plume? If that was the first stage, why didn't it fall away? And what were those points of light along with it? I've only seen a handfull of lauches that look like this, and they've all been unexplained or labeled UFOs. I thought we'd eventually see an "official" launch, and it seems we have, but I would still like to know exactly what is happening.

      You only see this when you launch at a late hour just after sunset or in the morning just befor dawn.
      Try imagening where the sun is in the video and then you get why its only lighting up high flying objects or exhaust plumes in this scenario.
      When the earth rotates another hour, the sunlight would be blocked completly be earth and we would see only the fire from exhaust not the smoke light up like in the video.
      When rockets launch at daytime, the smoke plume gets iluminated just as in this video. But against an already bright sky it does not look super bright or glowing.

      I understand about the curvature of the Earth and lighting. I am curious about the trailing bits and why they don't fall away. Also, why did a private company launch a private satellite at an AFB where we can't see liftoff, and why didn't the Falcon 9 land again, as it is designed to do? I'm not saying it isn't a rocket, I'm just saying it isn't typical.

I think the rocket in this video is a nuclear missile also. They are always testing the missiles engines to make sure that they are working and accurate in case the unthinkable happens.

    Best video of this eye-grabbing launch. All the ingredients were in place for a great light show - clear night, setting sun just at the right angle to refract light through the condensing exhaust gases, and the crowds below lucky enough to be in a position to appreciate the spectacle - much like having to be in the right place to see a rainbow appear.
    The camera zooms in at just the right moments to capture stage separation, fairing deployment and the first stage thrusting back, and then the beautiful swirls as the nitrogen thrusters squirt jets of gas to get its orientation correct for re-entry and a softer splashdown (stage one not recovered on this mission).
    Well filmed guys - so thanks for going out there to get it on tape. A lot of science teachers here in the UK will play this vid side by side with the spacex launch vid - then you can correlate what is happening close up, with what this great vid is showing from terra firma.

    That’s not the sun heat hitting against it. Like how could it? It’s night and besides the sun has moved in it’s circular rotation on the other side of the level stationary earth.
    BUT THAT WATERY THING YOU SEE is the water from the other side and above from the dome! Picture a ski boat gliding across an ocean, that’s what you saw there: a rocket gliding across the dome and causing vibration of the water above to be effective. AND BY THE WAY-part of the rocket broke off and was bouncing on the dome, causing ripples of water to form.
    And he says this is all caused by the sun, which is night and isn’t in sight.
