What emoji makes the best rocket?

I made and launched seven rocket emojis to find out why the rockets we see in social media don't look anything like those that actually go to space. This has got to be my coolest video yet!
Featuring an all-stars lineup of Facebook, Twitter, Google, Apple, Microsoft, WhatsApp, and Mozilla with a bonus launch at the end.

    Excellent work! The drag numbers actually feed back into the aerodynamic stability you talked about earlier-- the highest drag ones are the ones with the biggest fins, which helped keep them straighter for longer. I'm pretty sure that's why you saw the result with high-drag rockets going higher.
