Describing the view of liftoff as the Saturn V disappeared into the clouds and reappeared twice: "It looked like three sunrises..." Hubert H. Humphrey, The Spokesman-Review, 5-19-69 |
"TV cameras do not do it justice. It is like 100 claps of thunder, each following the other with machine-gun speed.
The flame that leaps from behind the rocket could have come straight from Dante's inferno. It is too bright to be seen with comfort by the naked eye. The earth trembles beneath the feet, two miles away. Then the towering rocket, nearly twice as high as Niagara Falls, two-thirds the height of the Washington Monument, creeps with agonizing slowness the first few feet off the ground, enveloped by a white cloud.
Then it is gone - and man is left to wonder and to pray."
- William R. Frye, Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, speaking of the Apollo 10 liftoff, 5-19-69
