Space Shuttle Launch: Viewed From an Airplane

1. That flight path is kind of reminiscent of the graph of y=sqrt(x)...
2. I do think its interesting that the trajectory isn't a little steeper, it seems almost like an energetic limit is creating a hyperbolic function there, the higher it goes the more it curves horizontally, you never see it actually go up and out of sight, it kind of just shrinks out of perspective and you can't really see where it went
3. that's cool
4. notice how is curving and ever going straight up
5. There's no way that fuckin thing made it very far. Look at that parabola
6. why would they stop filming? or if they didn't why would they edit their video down? looked to me like that rocket was going hit horizontal and then start nosing back down toward the earth, why would they stop filming?
7. kwaker jacks belive in fake pace stuff kwaker jackoffs
8. FACTS OF THIS VIDEO:
   the earth is flat
   the earth is stationary
   the rocket is curving
9. I'm not going to pretend that everyone should automatically just know everything about rockets, but for the people who think rockets can't go to space, the answers you seek are very easily available for free on the internet. Look up things like, the "Oberth Effect" and "Gravity turn". Look up the amount of force different types of rockets can produce (in kilo-newtons), or "rocket fuel oxidizers". Shit, look up videos of people playing the video game "Kerbal Space Program" to see the actual path that rockets take to get to orbit and to hopefully understand how gravity actually works.
10. Big deal. Weez Kangz Waz launching space pyramids 50000 years ago yo.
11. that's all,, 2.05 min..
12. dude why didnt you keep filming? You gave the flat earthers still hope of a dome it's starting to turn side ways when you stopped hmmm
13. Are there actually people that wonder why rockets arc??? How the fuck do you think they would they stay in orbit if they had no horizontal velocity? So disappointed. If you can use a computer to get to post comments on YouTube then you should be old enough to understand what an orbit is.
14. 0:19 Everyone rushes over to the right side of the plane. Plane tips over, lands on Daytona Beach...
15. We live on a plane not a plane-t.
16. i mean the fact that rocket science and travelling to space is incredible. like how the hell did people figure this shit out to do this, its insane that humanity is capable of this when you think about it.
17. awesome ;)
18. I watch this for a laugh and it certainly worked.
19. And people say humans have never been to space deluded people
20. it's not fake, it's just flat
