That was totally cool, You could see the rockets exhaust plume coming up from the earth from about 2:30 to 2:44, and of course the other rocket booster. Then to top it off you see the other booster hit the water. Also you could hear the stresses of the booster while entering the atmosphere.

No the boosters come off at about 38 miles high. About half way to space

It most likely uses an explosive with an oxidizer, in other words, it provides its own oxygen through a chemical reaction. I am sure however a cigarette lighter wouldn't work up there. I'm sure I can explain it better, but I really don't feel like it right now. Maybe later...

Wow. I grew up in Merritt Island, but this video gives the whole experience a deeper sense of REALITY. It goes from space, which is something the vast majority of us will go our whole lives never experiencing (making it very exotic and almost unreal) to the very same ocean you can swim in. On the way down I could make out my home town and the surrounding areas. Wow.

its just an optical illusion, due to the
fish-eye lens. at 1:48 the horizon is flat
and at 2:00 it is round shaped again. I dont
think that in real view a remarkable round
shape of the horizon can be seen at this
height... the seperation is done in approx
45 kilometers altutude.
