Video from the channel KHOU 11 about Falcon 9, linked on its Above Ten Thousand entry. Duration: 2:02. Language: English. Video type: Launch.

The video shows the liftoff of a Falcon 9 carrying the Crew Dragon capsule and astronauts on board, a crewed mission by NASA and SpaceX.

In the final seconds of the countdown, the flight termination system is armed and the go-ahead for launch is given. Ignition, liftoff, and the send-off to Bob and Doug follow. The narration presents it as the start of a new era for American spaceflight and tracks the ascent, with the first stage's propulsion at nominal values and a thrust reduction ahead of maximum dynamic pressure.

The clip ends with all systems reported nominal.
