  1. The covenant are attacking boys, I’m prepared to fight for the glory of reach

  2. no sound just straight incineration and debris, space wars are now

  3. This was from the previous attack in April right? Technically the first time a missile has been intercepted out of the earth’s atmosphere I think.

  4. is this old footage? I swear i saw something similar recently

  5. Thought I was looking at a Dune clip until I saw which sub I was on

  6. It could just be the twilight effect and not necessarily that the rocket was intercepted in outer space. Israel has intercepted a Houthi missile in outer space before but this effect is consistent with the twilight effect which happens in a thinner part of our atmosphere called the mesosphere.

  7. Betcha iran wishes they hadn’t gave all those missiles to russia now… lol

  8. Well shit, the explosions in The Expanse really are spot on then.

  9. The first time I have ever witnessed something like *this*. Never imagined it would look like it.. disintegrates after exploding?
    Incredible.

  10. Much more like inner space. Outer space would be like outside of the solar system

  11. I don’t believe that was an explosion in space per say.

    Rather the explosion was just high enough that it refracted the sunlight over the horizon that people on the ground could no longer see. You see a similar effect with SpaceX launches and those stunning images of rockets leaving glowing trails in the sky.

    It would imply this video was shot either early evening or early morning.

    Additionally, it’d also just be plain impossible for a phone camera to pick up such an explosion on video from the ground.

  12. Not outer space. Not higher than the Kármán line. But way the hell up there.

  13. On the science side, that’s so awesomely cool. On the human side, what a depressing sh!tshow.

  14. If that was in a film, you’d think it was Hollywood bullshittery. Looks so strange.

  15. Actually the coolest thing I’ve seen in a while.

    Holy shit.

  16. Shit is getting real. Here we are worried about mundane things. They’re bringing out the big toys.

  17. Can anyone explain the science as to why it makes this pattern? Almost looks like a blue flame but obv no oxygen in space

  18. That’s not even remotely outer space. It’s in earth’s atmosphere

  19. Listen to how he says “Yo” , from the other side of the World. We’re all the same, different.
