I was not aware of de-spin stabilizers. And, yeah, 250,000 ft? I wonder what
brand of altimeter they're using. Probably Olsen, right?

Also pretty easy to fake in an altimeter reading - I personally don't trust
something like that on-screen to begin with, unless it was generated after
the fact using some kind of software reading the raw data. Otherwise, that's
Space-X grade telemetry not easy for individual citizens to get their hands
on without shelling out big $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
I am disappointed that the rocket didn't just shatter unexpectedly after
burning all of its propellant. That would have been significantly more
convincing.

They actively spun the rocket for stability and after burnout the actively
de-spun it. It's obvious that the rocket is still moving so how do they
even postulate that it is stuck. I actually talked to one of the locals
that was a flat earther and he told me about this video as absolute proof of
it. People will believe just about anything.

This is onboard video of two rockets that supposedly hit an impassable

I don't believe the earth is flat - I believe like 99.999% of everyone else
that it is spherical. But I've seen a lot of rocketry video and the end of
these seem strange.
So I wanted to get opinions from the collective of people in this group
smarter than I.
