Excitement is one of the default emotions of Twitter town. Likewise, it never fails to find a reason to channel all its excitement and enthusiasm. Today what has brought on a massive wave of responses from Twitterati is the launch of the Dragon cargo capsule by SpaceX following a 24-hour delay due to unfavorable weather conditions. The moment SpaceX tweeted with the caption “Liftoff”, responses started flowing in. Here is the tweet. The perfect and majestic landing of the first stage in the Atlantic Ocean also painted a perfect picture, bringing in a fresh wave of responses from intrigued users.

Talk about interminable excitement. Or perhaps the quote “Every time feels like the first” fits.

Here is some science to add solemnity to the discussion.
I have always noticed, at liftoff, the launch platform SEEMS to move horizontally away from ship once ship clears pad. I always thought this was due to Earth's rotation and was example of Doppler affect and relativity. At that departure moment the earth is rotating away from ship

Burn! (At least they are successful at something. Just saying)
SPACEX successfully launched and land Rockets, Blue Origin successfully launched and land lawsuits.
