A #photograph of a United Launch Alliance #ULA #AtlasV #rocket in its 431 configuration, with a 4 meter diameter fairing, 3 solid rocket boosters #SRBs, and a single #RL10 engine on its #Centaur upper stage climbs up from its #launch pad.
This #photo was taken from #PlayalindaBeach in the Cape Canaveral National Seashore #CCNS, where a mile’s hike on the beach can bring you directly against the decrepit wire fence that marks the boundary between the parts of #MerrittIsland open to the public, and #NASA’s Kennedy Space Center’s #KSC operational area.
The perspective in this image makes one of those fraying wires seem like an obstacle to the #rocket approaching from below.
