Awesome! That’s a lot of whooping and hollerin’ you never saw on NASA missions.

What’s with the video graphic of the rocket going over the Empire State Building? Did the first stage burn only go for 1,000 vertical feet?

I think they’re saying if the rocket was scaled down to the height of a pencil, then it’s proportional altitude would have been equivalent to the height of the Empire State Building.
