Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Booster Medley

[denominator7]

I think NASA missed a good opportunity to generate a little revenue from each shuttle launch, Imagine having a small capsule inside ,or even external on each booster, with windows, seat, and life support for 20 minutes, what space enthusiast would not want to ride along with the shuttle, at least until the boosters separated? What an awesome ride that would be, as seen here..... I imagine they could go for 1 million a ride? 5 mil? 10 mil? someone would want to do it !

Any chance of uplaoding a a higher quality verson of this vid? Truely a work of art.

[frtguy80]

Love the video and love the music

[USAon3]

doot de dooo...here I am, fishing on my boat in the middle of the ocean...my, that sun is sure warm today HOLY #@&*WHAM bloop bloop bloop*

[Zebrails]

Just figure that it takes less than 10 minutes for the entire process to be complete, SRB, detachment, and re-entry, to the ocean.

[dj17q]

Absolutely breathtaking!!! The music and vid both goes well, so beautifully done - one of my favourites. Simply love it. Am wondering if all the great on-flight cameras are available on dvd?

[nietzscheluv]

that is incredible stuff. the juxtaposition between the elegance of the takeoff music and the despair of the ultimate separation was excellent. good viewing, thanks for posting!

[robinbouwe]

It`s Beautifully!!!

I have a question: What is the name of the first music-track?

greetz Robin, Netherlands

[ifuckingfarted]

All the music in this is Brian Eno. I first heard his music in the Movie For All Mankind.

[folksprez]

This footage was out of this world.....and then it wasn't !

[setekh79]

stunning vid, +fav

[kittypie070]

Compliments to you, this is beautifully done!! The second piece of music is menacing, but not "in-your-face" about it, so all the better.

[hottfuzz2]

they whole space research faciltys at nasa are going to quit or something and the us is going to have a new space designer that has more futuristic looks to the space shuttle and stuff that's what I heard.

[xxsomeoneelsexx]

Wow, that was really cool! I kept wondering why the thing stopped spinning at around 4:30 and didn't figure it out until I saw the parachute near the end... :headdesk: Anyways, I love the soundtrack, it fits space perfectly! 5*

[Marjorillan]

My dad worked for NASA for 33 years and I have never sen a video as cool as this. Thanks for sharing!!!

[custardypants]

Yep; fine music indeed, checkout Apollo, Atmospheres & Soundtracks. Awesome!

[whizzmin]

WoW this is AMAZING

[ftoduck]

Is that the basic version of sony vegas, the platinum or the pro version?

[frequenc1]

vegas 6.0 I assume the basic version

[ftoduck]

I love the music choice. I am one of the 192 favorited :)

What did you use to mash up the two shots into one?

[frequenc1]

I did it in song vegas

[balarat84]

GREAT MUSIC to Video clip,enjoyed the flight

[alijanlondon]

I know I'm going to be in the minority here - the dual view is spectacular, but the music kills it for me. The natural sound recorded when these boosters fell is much more engaging

[frequenc1]

the footage I took it from didn't have any sound so I had to make due. probably would be good...

[plusplusplusplusp]

@alijanlondon

I like the rattle-rattle sound when the boosters separate on another video somewhere -- makes it sound like you're really there strapped to the booster (a fun ride, I think!)

[ZucaTV]

que miedito

[TT013]

really amazing

[balarat84]

I wonder what life form a thousand years from now would think of this...as simple maybe as us getting in and out of a car?

[Galevav]

Well, that 'life form' will likely still be human...a thousand years ago is when Vikings made it on longboats to Canada, using Iceland and Greenland as waypoints. I say a shuttle launch would look to people a thousand years from now to be about as cumbersome and tedious as longboats are compared to, say, a cruise ship.

[balarat84]

Great point, although never before human kind has been threaten of it's existence due to its own creations.But I agree that it will be looked upoun as basic stick shift. I just hope we see alot of progress in the space program in our life time.

[byetis]

I would say the shuttle is more analogous to the pyramids moreso than longboats. It'll be considered the brute force method for getting to space. I'm sure we'll come up with something a lot more elegant 1000 years from now. Like going from making buildings from solid stone to skeleton steel.

[jimmytheclutch]

The most awesome launch vid yet. The music is perfect. Would love to see this in Hi Def!

[ticklememuch]

My teacher tells me evertything about space and shuttle

launches. This is amazing. Everything my teacher told me about, some of it is in here, it's truley amazing!

[tryharder75]

I thought I might lose my mind during parts of this. Very intense stuff. FYI: Space really really freaks me out.

[daschuck77]

Wow! Fantastic stuff!

[DrmsrXXIII]

Man I can't stop watching and posting comments here. It's really dramatic. The most dramatic Shuttle video I ever seen!

[DrmsrXXIII]

I really like the part where the SRB seperated from the Shuttle...wwwwwooooooowwwwwww

[DrmsrXXIII]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM­MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ­ZZZZZZZZZZZZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­INNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGG­!!!!!!!!!!!!

[alien8ted]

Thank you for posting this awesome footage, just about the nearest I've felt to being (almost)in space! The choice of music is brilliant. We need more of this stuff, really showing the wonder of space travel, maybe you could set the shuttle's backflip manouver recently filmed by the International Space Station to An Ending (Ascent)' also by Eno? Great job!

[k2jsm2]

Absolutely outstanding. Excellent footage and music compilation. Definately wow.
