I’m a normal human person.
Blah blah blah hello, this is a first post blah blah blah.
I’ll try not to spam everyone that follows me with too much rocket porn....
...no, not THAT kind of rocket porn. Great, now I’ll need to find some brain bleach...
Anyway, informations. I’ll probably post/repost here some rocket/space porn, awesome space stuff and possibly ponies. Don’t kill me (too slowly), pwease.

A camouflaged Japanese Mitsubishi Ki-21-IIb bomber seconds before its destruction by parafrag bombs dropped by a USAAF Douglas A-20 Havoc. Dutch East Indies. 1943.
One of my favorite photos ever. Puts the scale of the Earth into perspective.

The best part of this one is it’s totally canon unless proven otherwise
This is all text and no breaks. Use the Gfycat mirror to slow it down if you want! (Imgur, Gfycat)
And this time a S-Ic S-II separation from the FREAKING APOLLO 11! The same rocket that put men on the Moon! This time from the external perspective (also known as “staying on the ground, NOT GOING TO THE FREAKING MOON!”).
As before, expect fanboying and trivia below.
You can see the first stage (S-Ic) cutoff, as a sudden decrease in the size of the exhaust plume. At that time, only four outboard engines were firing, the center one was shut down as expected, to prevent pogo oscillations (oscillations + rockets != good_things)
The big explosion was just the stage separation. Using explosives to separate huge stacks of explosives. Surprisingly a good idea.
Even though the S-Ic engines were already shut down, they still produced some leftover exhaust, which you can easily see
