@samvarma

@samvarma I don't think you can ever top that for inflight entertainment.

@samvarma
That's wild.

@samvarma whole plane lurches to the left as everyone tries to watch the spaceship

[samvarma@fosstodon.org]

@VWDasher Nope quite honestly that was incredible

[thoreau@mas.to]

@bazurk @samvarma True story!

I think from the plane's perspective they were far enough away, but from the ground the plane looked close enough to the rocket to make me scrunch up my face and try to do mental math involving a rocket traveling south on a vertical incline 100 degrees at 7.8 to 7.9 kms/s and a plane traveling north at 965 km/hr..... adjust for wind, carry the one, try not to have a small heart attack....

[samvarma@fosstodon.org]

@Thoreau @bazurk Well this is the location that was GPS stamped onto the photo… We were severely far away from that...

Someone else mentioned a plane being super close and it couldn't possibly have been us thinking about it now

@samvarma Awesome. Thanks for sharing

@samvarma @Thoreau

I have an anxiety disorder. I’d still freak out.

[samvarma@fosstodon.org]

@heathborders plane was actually half empty, but I did AirDrop the photos and footage to anybody who wanted it

[samvarma@fosstodon.org]

@bazurk @Thoreau Fair enough. Probably shouldn't mention that I popped the emergency exit open to get the shot

[bazurk@social.lol]

@samvarma @Thoreau

Yeah don’t sit next to me on a plane. Ever.
