Theme 03 of 06 / For launches and for aborts
Mission Control theme
A launch-room display draws itself around the page: a countdown ring ticks 3, 2, 1, six stations answer GO one by one, altitude and velocity count up, and a trajectory arc climbs across the screen. When checks fail, the count holds, the booster reports NO-GO and the arc breaks apart.

This is the real engine from the extension. Pick an event and a mood and the Mission Control theme plays over a mock GitHub profile.
