2-At this point, the side boosters are about to shutdown. The vehicle is traveling at 4397 km/h or 2732 mph or Mach 3.6 and is 39 km or 127,953 ft or 24 miles up. Look at how much the gases exiting the rocket boosters have expanded in the upper feed because the density of the air decreases with an increase in altitude. This is a very important concept to grasp to understand why rockets cannot produce thrust in a vacuum. Just to clarify that statement further, I’m not suggesting that a rocket engine cannot be ignited and burned in a vacuum. But I am suggesting that Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion has been intentionally misapplied in scientific literature and textbooks concerning how a rocket engine actually generates thrust. I do not want to diverge into that right now more about it later. At T+ 00:02:28 a new camera on the second stage takes the place in the upper center frame. Here you can see the offset camera on the side booster nose cone as mentioned earlier next to the diagonal supports holding the side booster to the core. If you pause the video at T+ 00:02:33 and then proceed frame by frame you will see both of the lower feeds separating exactly 1 frame apart in sequence (the exact same footage) meanwhile according to the upper feed no separation has happened yet. It’s a small delay and I recommend watching the separation in 1/4 speed or frame by frame to see what I’m saying. The point is the separation should appear to happen at the exact same time especially for the upper feed and lower left feed. Also the fire coming out of the boosters during separation is not authentic; it’s computer graphics. Both the host John Insprucker and an unknown man at mission control state, before booster separation has started, that the side boosters have shutdown; therefore during the separation we should not see fire coming out of the rocket. Even in the official SpaceX animation that’s 03:26 long you see the side boosters shutting down during separation and then reigniting once they rotate 180 degrees. At T+ 00:02:42, SpaceX video editors once again poorly overlaid a new feed over the old feed. They blacked out the foreground, reversed the ejection of the reaction control thruster, and reflected the position of Earth but installed new cloud formations so the background wasn’t an identical reflection. Oh and I almost forgot about the black spot they added to the lower right feed to further differentiate it from the lower left feed. They did not invert the foreground at all it remains exactly the same shape as the original feed albeit much darker now. At T+ 00:03:12 the Main Engine (Core Booster) is Cutoff, now someone please explain to me when the Core separates from the second stage exposing the Merlin Vacuum Engine (MVAC) why does the entire frame fill with a bright white light obscuring the view? I assume it’s because they want to hide the majority of the bubbles caused by the separation underwater. Even still you can clearly see air bubbles and other small debris floating away from the camera. Why does the cover over one side of the MVAC Engine look deflated (as in wrinkled) [T+ 00:03:14] while the opposite side of the engine looks inflated [T+ 00:03:17]? Finally, we’ve almost made it to the biggest mistake made in the livestream. Spoiler alert they completely botched the timing of the fairing deploy exposing the Tesla Roadster and Starman! But before that, take a look at the difference between the livestream and the edited version of the launch at T+ 00:03:43. You will see a huge difference between the two in the curvature of Earth, in the orange color of the nozzle of the MVAC, and once again in the reflective cover either being inflated or deflated. But this is not the most interesting part of all this. The most interesting part to me happens between T+ 00:03:45 - 00:04:03 of the livestream only. Look at the graphic illustrating the trajectories by SpaceX that we were not supposed to see. We were supposed to see the fairing deploy during this time in sync with the wonderful music, “look at those cavemen go!” In the graphic, there are two blue lines close together which are “boosting back” to Cape Canaveral even though the “boostback burn” had already been initiated long before. Then there’s another blue line terminating closest to the autonomous drone ship cough cough floating barge cough. And finally there’s another blue line terminating way out in the Atlantic Ocean with the tag “Stage 2”. What’s odd is that there are no blue lines extending out into “space”. Actually it’s not odd and it makes perfect sense to me. Rocket engines do not push on themselves to generate thrust; in fact like all forms of movement/locomotion and it doesn’t matter if we’re talking natural biological locomotion or man made forms of transportation; all forms of locomotion require some form of matter with an appropriate density to push against to move. When you walk, your feet push against the ground in the opposite direction that you intend to travel. When you swim, your arms and feet push against the water in the opposite direction that you intend to travel, when you pedal a bicycle or drive a car/truck, or ride in a train or even a tank the wheels or tracks of that object push against the ground in the opposite direction you intend to travel, when you fly in an airplane the propellor or the jet engine propels air in the opposite direction you intend to travel pushing against the existing air and the exact same principle governs rockets as well. Please do not let fancy scientific jargon and/or complex mathematical formulas sway you from understanding a very basic, fundamental law established by Isaac Newton. We have been lied to about various topics for a very long time and it’s now time to educate ourselves using logic and our own experiences rather than relying on officials to provide us with all of the answers. Now back to the Falcon Heavy Launch. Take a good look at T+ 00:04:04 - 00:04:11 and you will see a very odd reflection in the windshield of the Tesla. At first you might think it’s simply Starman but upon closer inspection you will see it’s a human wearing a large rectangular object (most likely to make him neutrally buoyant or close to it) slowly floating towards the top of the windshield. How can I prove it’s not a reflection of Starman? Because the black straps do not continue downward towards the abdomen of the human like they do on Starman is one reason. The human’s face is not black like Starman’s helmet visor is another reason. And the third is simply because the camera is fixed and so is Starman so his reflection shouldn’t be moving at all. What does this prove? That they shoot a lot of this “space” stuff underwater as already mentioned earlier. It’s as close as they can get to simulate what zero gravity would look like if we could actually get into space with our current technology minus the bubbles, drag, and odd light refraction of course. They could use computer graphics which honestly do look more realistic if they pump enough money into the production such as in the movie “Gravity” with Sandra Bullock but that might help to discredit or incriminate NASA and all of their preceding “space” accomplishments. Continuity is more important to them I guess.
