The relative placement of the code excerpts is confusing. The coffeescript is canvas code for drawing the gauge needle, a progress bar for the image upload and therefore not timed with the rocket, if I understand correctly.

The SASS example is a css3 animation for the rocket ship. But it highlights something about css3 transitions I find really frustrating: you can't specify arcs (you can use bezier curves to specify a timing function, but not a positioning function). Animating an arc requires using translation and rotation in combination, which is very kludgy.

Whoops, the code samples were inserted into the wrong positions. Fixed now, thanks for letting us know!
