Stunning Views of Rocketlab and SpaceX Launches

In the last month there have been a few rocket launches which provided some unique visuals which I want to show off - Rocketlab's 'Return to Sender' mission carried a garden Gnome into orbit and subsequently recovered the booster under parachute.
The 30th Space Wing released a fantastic recording of SpaceX's launch of Sentinel 6, a continuous tracking shot of the booster launch, separation and landing. I matched this footage up with other footage from the live stream and inferred telemetry data from flightclub.io/ to give a complete look at descent and landing.
I also made a full length version with music here:

I like how the second stage lighting @5:55 turns the pristine shiny carbon fibre and stainless steel surfaces inside the booster into dirty matte surfaces covered in carbon exhaust. It's a nice reminder that launching a rocket isn't just clean rooms and equations carefully calculated by rocket scientists, but also real-world engineering.

On that Sentinel-6 launch, right before the boostback burn, there was a shot of the booster from the camera on the second stage. The camera switches away as the boostback burn is igniting and boy was that unfortunate as we would have seen the booster yeet out of the frame. On the flip-side, this footage is getting better every launch and I'm just happy to be around to watch it all. Remember when we were all waiting for FH to launch for years, or when Boca Chica was just a random little piece of property that SpaceX bought that nobody thought much of, or when RocketLab was just another Small-sat company that had yet to launch anything of note. What a time to be alive.

@@ashokiimc I watched the entire Apollo mission on a small black & white TV, my Dad preferred a sharper picture, and most affordable color TVs weren't as sharp, especially out where we didn't get a strong signal. I was almost 14. Watching the landing, hearing Armstrong's (Aldrin's?) call-outs, was an tense/optimistic/exhilarating experience. Watching him come down the ladder and step onto the Moon is indescribable - thrilling and surreal. I was a big sci-fi fan from an early age, and it was crazy to see reality. Had followed everything in print on the Gemini program. My Dad was thrilled too. He'd seen jet planes become a reality when about 18, and had worked for a few years as an engineering draftsman at Grumman in the early 1950s on some Navy jets, so he had an interest in seeing their Lunar Module succeed. My uncle actually worked on the LM, was an engineer at Grumman. It was also a singular experience to see Walter Cronkite so emotional once Armstrong was on the Moon - men in his position didn't show emotions like that. Apollo 13 was strange. Extremely worried and also optimistic. I felt the U.S. space program was too good to have a loss of crew failure. STS 1 was such a thrill, a triumphal return to space by the U.S. on a space craft so far in advance of anyone else. And another fulfillment of the sci-fi vision. I had been reading and watching everything I could when it was being developed. Ditto for the ISS being built, and shots of the astronauts floating and zooming around inside in zero-g never get old. Speaking of sci-fi fulfillment: Watching SpaceX land a booster was something I expected to see ever since I was a kid watching old space sci-fi from the 50s. And it finally happened! Can't wait to see what Starship does.

Whhoaaa! Stage separation *with* audio 😲 awesome 👍I love the way you can see the engine firing just off centre and spiraling slightly as it corrects itself while moving away.. Great footage and really enjoyed this video. Great stuff 👍

I suppose that as the hot gas from the exhaust hits the microphone it is no longer in a vacuum (for a few seconds at least)

I live about an hour from Vandenberg AFB, so I've watched a launch in person from the nearby town of Lompoc (kind of a shithole town), but I've not yet been able to see a booster landing in person. I wish my grandpa had lived long enough to see this stuff, because both he & my dad are sci-fi readers from WAAAAY back in the day. I'm now a grandpa myself, so thinking about what my grandsons will get to experience that I won't is quite humbling (and makes me a little sad, too).

At the altitude the rocket is at, there's probably a seal being broken which evacuates the inside of the stage separation area before stage separation occurs. Just uninformed speculation though, I have no idea if that's right it just makes sense to me.

I also saw that during the live stream and I think that compartment (interstage) was pressurized (1 atm at liftoff?), so they let the trapped air out from the interstage in an controlled manner prior to stage separation. That in turn makes that metal relax (not having the 1 atm of air pressing against it anymore), a very interesting camera shot indeed.

@@Xelnah I think you're right sounds like a good explanation. Mabey they want to prevent uncontrolled forces on the second stage because of the air trapped in the interstage

@@rensbakker7710 makes me wonder if it could even be pressurised to high pressure, making it more rigid like the pressurised fuel-tanks. _Could_ save weight in the interstage to do that.

The achievements are a nice little touch that makes me smile. As far as the audio and video improvements go- I’m sure there is a lot to be gained by having improved media collection during launch flight and landing. Very cool

Personally I wish the number of good youtube pages that show these launches would stop talking just prior to launch and let us enjoy the launch, even if there isnt any actual sound from the launch itself, NSF is worst for doing this and one commentator in particular often gets a little too excited

@Andrew Ongais huh? It was a video with less than perfect EQ. I love Scott Manley videos, but his mic has been messed up lately. I hope he sees this because his content is phenomenal and I'd hate for something as simple as audio mixing to take away from them. And the rocket clips didn't have ear piercing treble, kid. 😉
