Reply to Watching a launch in person questions by dfeig
I tried to go to any launch I could when I lived in Florida. The bigger the rocket the better, in general. However right before sunrise or right after sunset you get incredible jellyfish in the sky as the rocket leaves the atmosphere. My favorite launch was probably Arabsat, when the two boosters did their boost back burn, the flow of the exhausts between them and the second stage was amazing.
As far as delays, I don’t assume it’ll launch until it launches. Have literally had abort’s at T-1 second. I’ve gone to the same launch four times in a week. It happens. Aborts not RUDs is the rule.

Unless I’m mistaken it’s because the telescope doesn’t see this. It sees infrared and then NASA uses that info to color it

I forget what it’s called, but he does a jiu jitsu movie, where instead of Wing Chun, he does jiu jitsu for the entire movie. It’s so crazy got he can just kick ass in a totally different martial art
