Time-lapse photo of Falcon 1 under the stars


This amazing photo just came in from the SpaceX team on the ground in Kwaj. Man, I miss being there. (not that I ever was there)

  3. I can't wait to see that baby go up :) That will have such an impact... I already see all those news coverages surprised about what just happened and what they didn't notice enough before ;) To hell with SpaceShipTwo *lol* Long live SpaceX and its Falcon 1, Falcon 9, Falcon 9 heavy and Dragon...
    And don't you dare prevent the launch with bad weather, weather god! ;)

    Have fun! I'll have ;)
    Go Falcon!

  10. Thanks so much for your postings. Please keep posting anything your brother permits. :-) It is good for them and us to be able to release information without appearing to make an official statement.

    PS Unless that's a video that just won't download, it's "long exposure" image. "Time Lapse" is something else for movies. There is a great example on Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-lapse
