Hands down one of the coolest shots I've ever seen!

I thought it was a render when I first saw it and had to double take. I love how you can see the thrust increasing at the start and then the mach diamonds eventually appear

Amazing shot, and really cinematic with the ice chips in the exhaust plume.

Also, thanks for posting, and welcome to Lemmy :)

Thanks! Twitter refugee, so joined Mastodon. Now I've experienced the Fediverse I'm branching out here as a second step
