The first 3 minutes I actually have better video and pictures. The amazing thing about this of course is in the ET Cam and the ring of plasma caused by vehicle shock waves through rarified air. The Orbiter hits "Entry Interface" at 74 miles altitude comming back - the first exposure to atmospheric effects. The Shuttle's altitude thru MECO never even reached 68 miles altitude. The majority of the Shuttle launch is in "gunning it" horizontal after an initial booster climb, specifically for speed.
