Original Note:
SpaceX’s Starship did not hit a “firmament”. The first stage broke apart after staging, the second stage continued on its normal trajectory. If there was a collision, the second stage would have hit it as well. The large plumes.of gas are caused by the atmosphere thinning. https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-earth-dome-firmament/fact-check-the-earth-is-not-covered-by-a-dome-or-firmament-idUSL1N31W2RO/ https://spacenews.com/starship-super-heavy-lifts-off-on-second-flight/
