if you haven't seen the footage from someone in a passenger jet nearby, it rocks

Think about how much technology evolved to create that scene, to fly nearby and being used to take that video, wow

You can't really see anything in that video. The craft is very small on screen.

I suppose zoom would have some awe factor

But it's awesome enough as is

a 100 meter tall spaceship nearly 6 million pounds carrying nearly a million gallons of fuel for nearly 10 million pounds of thrust for JUST eight minutes

all that to escape Earth's mighty gravity well

pretty freaking amazing to watch even at that distance
