Ares I-X Test Launch from NASA Kennedy Space Center, Liftoff of First Ares Flight

http://www.spaceflightnews.net - For the first time in over 28 years, a rocket other than the space shuttle lifts off from Launch Complex 39 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center. This video was shot from the KSC PRess Site adjacent to the Launch Control Center. The launch of the Ares I-X test rocket is the first flight of NASA's Constellation program, a prelude to the Ares I, which seeks to return humans to the Moon and then fly to Mars and beyond. The flight of the Ares rocket lifted off 38 years and 1 day after the very first Apollo Saturn rocket launched.

Wow, it looks like a model rocket. When you see the shuttle launch it's hard to think of it in comparison to home made model rockets. But when you see this it makes you appreciate that it's very similar to a model rocket, just on a massive scale. The things human's have accomplished as a race are amazing.

@A4moondoggy I saw this vid when I was only 11, now I'm 13. I realize how dumb I was. I'm not trolling, I was just a kid lol. I still am but I better appreciate things now. And the only reason why I watched it is because it was in my recommend vids at the time. And yes I'm a derp xD

I was at the press site for this launch (my camera tripod was parked next one of the NASA TV press site camera trucks). I still can't get over how loud it was as it seemed louder then the two shuttle launches I attended. I still cherish the memories of it!
