During launch, the crew capsule separation occurs immediately after the launch vehicle reaches supersonic speeds. In reality, a ULA Atlas 5 rocket would reach Mach 1 far earlier in the launch profile (roughly a minute). The payload separation would have then occurred much later, in addition to other inaccuracies in the launch cadence.This information is based on the profile of Juno's mission to Jupiter launched on an Atlas 5 in 2011. The footage in Europa Report is taken from this launch and the mission profiles would have been similar.
