That's awesome, shame about the cloud getting in the way though. I'd love to go and watch a launch for myself.

Outstanding video.Really cool to see behind the scenes in the press area.Ridden by there on many occasions,but that was privileged footage I would never see..Great job.Thanks for sharing.

This is a nice video! Actually that clock was not there for Apollo 11 but put in place just after before Apollo 13.

Wow! Incredible video. How did you get permission to get so close? I was on the causeway and the sights and sounds blow compared to those of your vantage point.

Love the sound of the launch you captured at this vantage point... Some of your statistics at 7 minutes into this video are inaccurate. Starting with the escape velocity is about 35,00 feet per second which is 17, 500 miles per hour. And the main engines are a bit more powerful...more like 43 million horsepower and 18 Hoover Dams, at least in 1988 that was right and they're about the same now.
