Rockets Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Todays launch by SeaLaunch (Boeing) = BTW... The same Russain company also makes the engines for the Atlas 5 which will be lifting the mission I'm working on. http://www.spaceflightnow.com/atlas/av013/070111date/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedball Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I wonder if the explosion was very loud inside that ship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockets Posted January 31, 2007 Author Share Posted January 31, 2007 There's no one on board the launch platform (an old oil rig) at the time of launch, but yeah it'd probably rattle your fillings out if you were. I haven't seen a rocket crinkle like that since the 60's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
