"What I remember most about the next ten seconds or so, as the two solid rocket boosters and the three main engines of the orbiter ignited in a fierce explosion of light and smoke, was the silence. I will never forget the noiseless beauty of those few moments. Even as the behemouth jumped off the launch pad in a violent burst of fire and smoke, singeing the grass for a mile around, I heard nothing. Then, like rolling thunder, the roar came..."
- Bob Woods, "Future Life", 8-81
