To your horror, it suddenly dawns on you that the countdown has just passed T-3 seconds and you have the Holy Gas Generator of Antioch installed. Thank you for holding. You are moving forward in the queue.
<raptop>
Either the rocket is going to explode while the crew is on hold, or mission control is on hold, and will be until long after the fires have stopped burning
<Althego>
hehe holy gas generator of antioch

You shift into reverse and break the light speed record. Your rocket goes to jail for illegal possession of a kerbal.

Dang. Got caught speeding.

Remember to follow the other laws if you're going to be moving ITAR-violating equipment!
<darsie>
I definitely recommend holding SRBs till all (that should) are lit. If one (that should) doesn't light, hold hold hold.
<Mat2ch>
Would that have been possible with the space shuttle?

sure. Only the SRB broke up in flight, IIRC.
<darsie>
idk if they do actually hold them till they're lit properly, but I can't imagine otherwise.

You charge your friendship drive. As you move from LKO to KEO your space ship gains potential energy and you wonder if that increases its mass, too, because E=mc^2.
<Mat2ch>
No, it's potential friendship I gained!

You whistle the tune of "I'm walking this moon because you crashed my ship". Bill Kerman submits his revisions to your initial vehicle designs. They are almost 50% red ink by mass.

Could be worse. I could have crashed that ship.
