You mean they’re not testing the prayer rugs in zero-G?

Looks like those Russian engines worked this time.

"Booster throttling to maintain 5G acceleration"

That means vehicle speed is increasing at the rate of 100 mph every second.

2nd Lieutenants everywhere are ecstatic.

When I was on active duty, before GPS, "2nd Lieutenants with a map" were the most dangerous weapons in the US Army inventory.

I was lucky, my first tour was in Germany, where it was easy to navigate...all those small towns with churches for landmarks to navigate by. lol

Four years later, I knew my battalion's operating areas like the back of my hand. Came in handy during my stint as Battalion S-4 (Supply Officer).

Good launch so far! Nice on-board camera coverage too.

Atlas V...I wonder if there are any remnants of the original design of Atlas ICBMs of the 50’s, other than the name?
