Cool! Liked this one! Streamed extremely well….
A quote from the movie, Contact, comes to mind:
“You’re an interesting species. An interesting mix. You’re capable of such beautiful dreams, and such horrible nightmares. You feel so lost, so cut off, so alone, only you’re not. See, in all our searching, the only thing we’ve found that makes the emptiness bearable, is each other.”
Let’s aspire to be something greater than what we are.
Wow! Really cool! I’ve watch many of many shuttle videos and that was just wonderful.
Good choice of music.
I’d love to be able to get those kinds of views of each launch.
Awesome Clips. Too bad they didnt have all those camera angles when Columbia was launched.
The video is 12 min. 34 sec.
The Vimeo player is too dumb to say so before one watches it though. One has to jiggle the mouse pointer to drag the seek bar over to the right to get a reading. Do not want.
Needs some John Philip Sousa.
Dude!
Weird mission insignia. 13 stars… eh?
I was privileged to experience two launches (Columbia and Atlantis) when they took off just a couple of weeks apart in 1990. Nice video helped me relive those moments. Though nothing could replace the real thing. Nearly twenty years later, I can still feel the roar (roar is such a pathetic description) of the rockets vibrating my internal organs. For a few brief moments, you become a part of the launch. I’ll be sorry to see the shuttles retired. Thanks, Gasparrini.
