Details:
This is a view from 20 miles distant of the 1st stage burn of the new 3-D printed (85% by weight) Terran 1 rocket. The exhaust train is bright white because the fuel is methane, in contrast to the orange of kerosene-fueled rockets such as Space X's Falcon. The exhaust train abruptly and completely ends because, unfortunately, the 2nd stage failed to ignite.
