Titusville is a small town in Florida. It’s quiet. Except for the seconds NASA or some private company launches a rocket into space. Because Titusville happens to be right across the indian river, the river that separates Cape Canaveral from the main land.
The people from Titusville know the best places to watch the rocket launches – while other people pay dozends and hundreds of dollars at the cape – they watch them for free.
And if you come there – they will tell you one of the best places is Kirk Point Riverside Park. A small piece of land, right between Highway Nr 1 and the indian river.
It’s not the best place to watch a rocket lift of because it’s the closest. But because there’s another phenomenon you can see from here.
3, 2, 1, lift off … once a rocket ingnites it’s engines, it makes an uncomparable roaring sound. The bigger the rocket the louder the sound. Sound is a pressure wave. And as it travels through the air – while most people who watch the launch as close as possible – they can only hear the noise, once the pressure wave hits their ears.
But in Titusville, Florida you can not only hear but also see the pressure wave. Because once it’s strong enough, which it was when the space shuttles were pushed into orbit, nowerdays they launch even bigger rockets – the pressure creates a front of ripples on the surface of the indian river. This front travels across the river and approaches Titusville.
So people here can see the pressure wave coming bevor they hear it.
Sometimes, when we are hit by a pressure wave, someone yelling at us, making us down for no reason for example, we can use the Titusville – phenomenon to our advantage.
Because different from the rocket ripples in the Indian River off of Tituville, we can stopp the wave, before it arrives. Just imagine a wall that comes with it. A soundproof wall. It stops right in front of you.
‚What did you say? I can’t hear you‘
Sometimes we have to put virtual sound barriers around us. And micro-stepout into our own little space.
Because pressure waves are fascinating once they origin in rocket launches. But they are unnecessary for our moving forward once they carry the negative energy of our opponents.
Build sound barriers for your needs. They disappear by themselves once the sound is gone.
