Lol...
For me, space rockets (that are used for scientific and peaceful purposes) are at the acme of human aspirations to reach out to the mysteries of the universe. Also, they symbolize the consistent hard work that is needed to achieve one's lofty goals, and the legitimate pride that attends one's soul when the goal is successfully accomplished. When the count down is made and as the rocket fires up, there is this sense of anticipation and childish wonder aroused.
