Mechanical Engineers use \(y\) as a coordinate axis at the ground pointing towards the sky. Dissimilar, Aerospace Engineers use \(y\) as a coordinate fixed to a flight-vehicle pointing towards the Earth. This is why Mechanical Engineers have their feet on the ground, and Aerospace Engineers have their heads above the clouds.

Trinity: the first four seconds. Oppenheimer later told journalists, “If you ask: can we make them more terrible, the answer is yes; if you ask: can we make more of them, the answer is yes; if you ask: can we make them terribly more terrible, the answer is-probably.”
