So that's what really happened!


Readers may remember, a few years ago, seeing a video clip of the (failed) launch of an amateur rocket in the shape of an X-wing fighter from the Star Wars movie franchise. In case you missed it, here it is.







It seems someone decided the clip didn't tell the whole story, and needed enhancement. Here's what he/she/they came up with.







Yep . . . gotta admit it, that's an improvement!

After I saw the first clip the thought that came to mind was there was a Tie fighter doing a victory roll just out of frame.
Looks like I was right!
