A beast of a rocket
Wish they had launched during the day though. Don’t know why a moon rocket even needs a launch window, it’s not like the moon is going anywhere.
But the Moon *is* going somewhere. The moon’s orbit is slightly elliptical: “the Moon’s center-to-center distance from Earth varies with mean values of 363,396 km at perigee to 405,504 km at apogee.” That’s non-trivial.
