Original Note:
This is depicting a "gravity turn" maneuver whereby the rocket goes up to punch through dense atmosphere and then turning to use the earth's gravity to assist in achieving orbit - orbit being achieved by going so fast sideways you miss the Earth when you'd otherwise crash https://headedforspace.com/gravity-turn/
