      Skyscrapers are typically at least 100 or 150+ meters in height depending on definition and these are under 50 meters each so it's like a medium sized grain silo landing.

    Also worth noting is the continuous crackle. This is the audible sonic effect of the exhaust breaking the sound barrier thousands of times.
    The plume assaults the surrounding air creating countless pockets of alternating high pressure and vacuum, with the vacuum being responsible for limiting the upper peak at about 196 decibels.
    The physics of rocketry is pretty astounding.

    I have no idea how things like this are not a bigger deal to more people. Seeing it launch, the separation, the return of the boosters and everything going off flawlessly seriously moved me to tears at what kinds of amazing things we humans can do. The wonder of space and the awesome technology and effort to get there are no longer cherished by most of the self-absorbed of today's society. When did we lose the wonder of what's out there and the drive to explore?

This video is a demonstration of the unusual phenomenon only observable when we push beyond the limit of "common sense". No they don't play pool games better or know more about magic tricks, but they are exploring things beyond our scope and we can only see a little from their awesome projects. The more we learn, the better we know how hard it is.

      Nothing went wrong. It went right. There are now so many launches that it has become normal. They don't televise every plane taking off at an airport either.
      They will televise a launch like Artemis 2 when it is manned and headed for lunar orbit, since that will be out of the ordinary.

    Next time you're there make sure you stay on the vehicle a little bit longer because you caught the beginning of boost back burn.
