    At 1:40 it looks like we're looking at the mission control room which is in the the main building of SpaceX's production facility at the Hawthorne Airport near LAX. As a guy who once worked there, I can tell you that all those people behind the glass where the controllers are sitting are the production workers who actually build the rockets. Whenever there's a launch, they stop what they're doing and gather to watch the "fruits of their labor" take-off.

      only the big launches draw crowds behind mission control these day when they're launching left and right:
      the odd starlink launch gets a few workers probably on their lunch breaks.

      Because there’s no such thing as a secret space launch. Russia, China, and the US all have satellite systems looking for nuclear missile launches that will spot every single rocket that takes off, not to mention local media coverage in the country it launches from. For space missions with covert tasks they usually just say “It’s for the NRO” meaning it’s a spy satellite, or if it’s really deep they will make up an official cover story for the the spacecraft is supposedly doing. It’s mostly just theater, the other nations involved all have a pretty good idea of where and what those launches are doing.

      @@AJayMustangNo, while rockets that burn liquid hydrogen and oxygen do mainly only produce water as the exhaust gas, the Falcon 9 uses liquid oxygen and kerosene so the exhaust gas is a mix of CO2 and water. There is also a small amount of other contaminants produced. But as others have pointed out, rocket launches are one of the smallest producers of CO2 and pollution.

      There’s no way they are flying the X-37 around the moon. It’s primarily a spy asset, and there’s nothing much interesting around the moon. Most people are speculating it’s going to geostationary orbit because of the much higher delta-v provided by falcon heavy. There are plenty of geostationary satellites from other nations they would love to get a close up look at.
