That's obviously a mexican guy who ate too many blue candies, period!

I for one welcome our new alien overlords.

Quote from audimasta :

Its pretty common that the Russians test missiles in that area So just a test, no serious business.

Yep, it's a known fact that the Russians use Norway as a shooting range to test their missiles.

Couple of videos...

I would be slightly worried if I had soviet nukes flying above me

I think you'd have heard about it if they were shooting nuclear warheads about the place.

It's a test of the rocket, that's all. No payload.

Muhahahahaaa,weeeee are da alienz and we came to killz ya all.


:elefant:

I think it's fake. Or,the failing russian military. Who knows.

Either way, it looks awesome.

i think from HL1, when hes about to **** up in the test chamber thingy

"Gordon doesn't have to hear all this, he's a highly trained professional"

meh the fact thats its a Russian missile, is almost dissapointing to me

Guys, you dont get it. Thats writing propaganda.


Aliens invasion....scaaaaaary

Yes, it is actually from HL1. Just Re-beat the game.

HL1 has so many great quotes...

On-topic:

Difference between rocket and missile?

A missile is also a kind of rocket but the difference is that... a missile holds explosives, whereas a rocket is used to propel something, such as a satellite etc to its destination, missiles are self guided by the help of inertial navigation systems as well, whereas rockets are not.

Quote from DevilDare :

Totally agree! Also, I think it actually is the russian military failing. :rolleyes:

A missile is pretty much anything moving though the air. If you throw a stone, that's a missile.

A rocket is a missile that's specifically given thrust using a rocket engine.

A missile is a weapon, and a rocket is most of the times a part of a weapon/missile.

Quote :

mis·sile (mĭs'əl, -īl')
n.

An object or weapon that is fired, thrown, dropped, or otherwise projected at a target; a projectile.

Doesn't have to be a weapon. Just anything moving through the air.

[pendantic]
A missile uses rocket power, so it can be called a rocket?
[/pedantic]

Damn you Crash, you already said that :P

EDIT: I'm doubtful it's a nuke tbh

Quote from thisnameistaken :

Strange that it changes trajectory so much between the blue and white phases though, isn't it?

In a clearly speculative proposition to your observation I must add that the post modernist phase took the work to greater heights if one is willing to postulate on the metaphorical implications of the launch as an expression of the individual's everyday struggle for gaseous relief.

You posted 2 hours after CG, you are either blind, or you are just being a dick by putting a point across that has already been placed.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh

*Makes angry hissing cat noises*

Russian military equipment failing? No way! Are you sure?

Then again our own missile/rocket programs have hardly been an outstanding success.

Quote from thisnameistaken :

Looking at the videos, it looks like it originally went up perpendicular to most of the cameras filming it, and it's path turned to face away from them as it climbed. In the final shots of it burning out, it's definitely flying away from the camera.

Sorry, I had to fart

No really, I saw it myself, crazy shit
