Is that just GIF artifacts, or can you actually see a shock front as the lander mockup passes in front of objects (particularly, the striped markers)?
That's incredible!
- mickronome 10y agoThats a shockwave for sure, look at the timestamps, that thing is going very fast.
- mickronome 10y agoWanted to add that while it is hard to judge the speed, if it would happen to be subsonic then I guess it technically is a pressure front and not a shock front as it is when supersonic, if I've understood the distinction correctly.
