Apollo 8 lifts off
Wide shot of the Apollo 8 rocket standing next to a red scaffolding behind a row of trees. After about two seconds, ignition starts, creating a glow at the bottom of the rocket and sending huge plums of smoke billowing out on either side. The rocket the lifts off and the shot tracks it for about 16 seconds in the air.
