:It's definitely quite abstract; I think it's talking about an actual window of the building that the rocket is supposedly "inside" [[Special:Contributions/172.71.30.142|172.71.30.142]] 06:14, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

I've added a bit more to the explanation, but I wasn't sure what, if anything, could be said about the 'sunlight' comment... Is it just a joke about the stereotypical "computer nerd/engineer" never stepping foot in the sun, or am I missing something there? Also, could someone please add the characters' names in to the explanation where necessary? I can't remember them well enough to be confident in who's who [[Special:Contributions/108.162.245.186|108.162.245.186]] 06:34, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
