    That video was made in Hollywood. Oh, wait, it's actually lens distortion. No, it's just CGI.

    Well, what if they were turned 90 degrees to the plane? Do you know what type of camera and lens? That would be helpful.

    Now, after watching from 15 minutes on, something seems wonky. Not going to mention that actual liftoff started at 13:00 minutes. Oops, guess I did. Might as well mention all of the cgi at the beginning. You only see the super secret airforce plane land.
    Everything else is an animation at the beginning.

    So, are they launching this thing back towards land to account for the rotation of ball earth?

    There is some sweet editing at the launch from wide view that looks straight up/curving slightly away and then we get mostly a horizontal view. I don't know why they would change the camera angle for appearances. Then they zoom out and show the massive fire blowing out and then switch to the down view from the rocket perspective. You don't see any flame. You see darkish waves, but the flames would be too close to the camera not to obstruct the view. The flames should be visible.

    Now they are up in "space". Goes up, moves 90 degrees to horizontal, then they say they are moving it to get ahead? So they are moving faster than the rotation of earth and then rotating back for landing?

    So the landing show. They keep the left side on the rocket camera. The right side shows a very wide, very far back view of the landing pad with the object moving back to ground. We even see flames. Then magically, we are at touch down with a close up camera view. Why no close up camera for the full landing? Seriously. The near camera view is all dust/smoke. I see maybe some hint of flame/color flash, but dust/smoke obscures everything.

    I was also watching the clouds, we don't get a long view of them for a great length of time, but some things about the clouds stood out to me. In "space view", the clouds didn't appear to me to move or change. When we get the close up camera at touch down the clouds seem to move blocky. Like, move, stop, move, stop...

    Now why are they launching a rocket today when things should be buttoned up for the big storm?
