SpaceX Falcon Heavy Launch

SpaceX recently launched their new Falcon Heavy rocket for the first time. The double booster landing is surreal. This 2 minute slideshow was created with PTE, Bandicam screen recorder, and Bandicut video cutter.

Cool Tom - I can't help but think the footage of the Tesla with the Earth in the background is a Photoshop job - there is no atmosphere visible as there would be in a real Earth photo. I don't know whether the news wants the viewer to believe it's real or not - I haven't been watching it on TV.  

Nice job of capture and presentation!!

Best regards,

Lin

Hi Lin,

Elon mentioned after the launch how the Tesla looked like it was fake. He said CGI animation could have generated a much more realistic Tesla in space.

Thanks,

Hi Ken,

The technology is amazing. I could watch the boosters fall back to Earth over and over again.

Thanks,
Tom
