08. What does it feel like to go through the atmosphere? (A K2S Question)
From The Space Library
For the first two minutes and five seconds, the boosters cause a great deal of vibration and it is hard to read the displays. Once the boosters leave, sometimes with a jolt, it is like sitting on a big electric motor. The spacecraft just hums.
