    A missile is captured mid-launch, rising vertically against a twilight sky with a large plume of fire and white smoke billowing at its base. The missile appears to be a surface-to-air or ballistic type with a white nose cone, yellow/gold mid-section components, and visible booster fins. The launch appears to be occurring in an arid, open terrain environment.
