    A rocket or missile is captured mid-launch against a clear blue sky in what appears to be a desert test environment. A large plume of white smoke and exhaust billows at the base of the launch site, while a bright flame trail follows the ascending projectile. The surrounding terrain is arid with sparse vegetation and a few structures visible in the background.

    A Sabre short-range ballistic missile launches in June 2017 at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, for a test of the Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) Missile Segment Enhancement, an advanced missile defense system. Hypersonic missiles might be able to penetrate PAC-3 and similar systems. (U.S. Army photo by U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command)

    A rocket or missile is captured at the moment of nighttime launch, illuminated by bright engine exhaust and surrounded by billowing white smoke clouds. The launch appears to be from a ground-based facility, with a security fence, utility poles, and structures visible in the foreground. The dark sky and surrounding vegetation are faintly visible in the background.
    This is a computer-generated rendering depicting a rocket payload fairing separation event at high altitude above Earth. Two dark fairing halves are shown separating away from a white cylindrical payload or upper stage, which features a conical nose section. Earth's curvature, atmosphere, and cloud cover are visible in the background, indicating an altitude near or at the edge of space.
