Birds don't fly this high. Airplanes don't go this fast. The Statue of Liberty weighs less. No species other than human can even comprehend what is going on, nor could any human just a millennium ago. The launch of a rocket bound for space is an event that inspires awe and challenges description. Pictured here last week, the Indian Space Research Organization's LVM3 rocket blasted off from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre on Sriharikota Island, India. From a standing start, the 600,000+ kilogram rocket ship lifted the massive Chandrayaan-3 off the Earth. The Chandrayaan-3 mission is scheduled to reach the Moon in late August and land a robotic rover near the lunar South Pole. Rockets bound for space are now launched from somewhere on Earth every few days.
Las aves no vuelan tan alto. Los aviones no van tan rápido. La Estatua de la Libertad pesa menos. Ninguna especie distinta del ser humano puede comprender lo que está sucediendo, ni tampoco podría hacerlo cualquier humano hace mil años. El lanzamiento de un cohete con destino al espacio es un evento que inspira asombro y desafía la descripción.
