Viewing the launch from my yard. Apologies for the bad audio, but launches are sometimes too much for my Canon to pick up without distortion. The rattling sound at the beginning is from my well-built windows rattling.
This launch is a great example of "mysterious" pinwheels, spirals, and other phenomena many attribute to aliens or UFOs. In reality these are nothing more than rocket or missile-induced phenomena, caused by as in this clip, firing of maneuvering thrusters.
