Clip from the NASA livestream

I like how the animation continues on schedule when it has no relation to the actual trajectory of the vehicle.

Yea what is with the commentator just carrying on while the translator is saying failure

[StevenBanks]

Of course they didn’t have pre-loaded contingency animations for the many failure scenarios they train for— but it sure would be fun if they did! Glad they have escape options, unlike the retired Shuttle.

The boosters failed and the English commentator didn’t even know. She was still saying everything is running smooth while showing the animations. This is a joke

[DylanFahey]

Why the fuck is this in 720P, it's the fucking 21st Century for fucks sake.

[peterdefrankrijker]

So, the failure happened after the animation was started? What happened, are the kosmonauts okay?

British intelligence at it's finest. - RIP novichok

I just can't believe it, how can ridiculously shitty technology (supposedly) successfully get to the Moon so many times. And now, with everything they didn't have back then, they're having problems with something as easy as get in low orbit (in comparison)... Wait, they just got lucky, 6 times, that's all (plus all the unmanned landings that succeeded). Thanks, but I choose not to believe in any of that.
