Space Shuttle Jumps The Gun
Look at the shuttle then look at the count down clock. I guess these astronauts could not wait to get into space. :)

Actually, this clock is telling you the elapsed time AFTER LAUNCH --THis is the T-PLUS time NOT the T-MINUS time!!
--Yes, I'm a Rocket Scientist
Throttle this baby up, we are outta here!
HOW FAR DOES THAT SMOKE BLOW OUT?
this is normal. the clock keeps on running after take-off: -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ..
what you see is 8 seconds AFTER blast-off.
I still think my world wide engineering idea is far better than this.
taps929 is right - also - the viewing area is 3 miles from the launch pad, so you see the launch first, then the sound wave hits a few sec after. IT IS LOUD!
actually the clock runs forward after the countdown so its 8 secs into the launch (11 Comments) |
