Beautiful timelapse from the ISS - SpacePod 2010.09.14

[TheCoreLogic]

The song is called 'Dramatic Intro' from 'Soundroll-music'

@spacedcast. I am not sure how you figured that if we orbit the moon at 17,500 miles an hour we will fall into an earth orbit,this is not true. It is far too fast to orbit the moon but as we move away from earth velocity decreases to remain in orbit. Lower orbit requires higher speeds

[bojo785]

What song is this!!!! Epic

[Darkheart101]

I'm in this video. =D

....Somewhere >_>

[dizwright]

Breathtaking!!!

[mario16392]

What's is the song??¿

[CullTheLivingFlower]

I wish there was a camera on the ISS live-streaming 1080p video of the earth 24-7 that we could all watch.

[LilDrummerBoy74]

They should add a stargazing module just for fun. Have it on the top of the station and make it just a large glass window. Imagine the view!

[korzen321]

Just awesome.. :)

[punjedi]

Very beautiful video. Thank you!

[Rob260259]

Woooooooow...

[mhaze210]

This song reminds me of an epic movie. Just saw the ISS and Discovery fly over last night. Couldnt believe how fast they were going. It was beautiful. At the same time there were 2 UFO-looking things perpendicular to it.

I knew it wasnt just me because my parents saw them too...THEN on top of that, about an hour ago the news on ABC gave info on the fly-over last night...and even mentioned how they got many questions about the "ufo's". kinda cool.

[LordHannigan]

Its time to build a newer and larger space station. I want it to be so big that instead of going from door to door. A space shuttle 180 feet long can dock inside the station. Build it around the moon. So we can have a station that orbits the moon at around 17,500 miles per hour. It can launch mini space shuttles or similar landers that were used in the late 60s and early 70s up to date models of course.

Which can be used to build the first Moon base. The base should hold 30 scientists.

[spacevidcast]

@LordHannigan It would be great indeed, but who would pay for it? You? The taxpayers seem to feel they already pay NASA too much. Also, you can't orbit the moon at 17,500 mph. You'd end up in a solar orbit at that distance and speed from earth.

[LordHannigan]

@spacevidcast No you wouldn't where did you learn that from? One Apollo 11 traveled at 25,000 an hour to get to the moon. thats why it took them eight days. An why do you bring up coast. America has spent in 17 years 50 billion dollars on the Space station. The other nations involved have spent an additional 50 billion dollars. We spend more than that a week on oil. 500,000 dollars per minute 2.2 billion a day. That tax dollars that go to people that is less beneficial to everyone.

[LordHannigan]

@LordHannigan So no not in a week that averages out to 15.6 billion but in a month we spend more on oil than in we have in 17 years. NASA only gets 2% of the 98% the budget went up with a little 19 billion, but that comes also from the military budget. An actually what I pay I'd rather if I had a choice that it all go towards NASA. They discovery shit that helps everyone. From biological viruses to many other things. If there were more scientists America wouldn't be in the hole it is in now.

[bastje]

@spacevidcast china has enough money.... ;)

[keeganadair]

@spacevidcast Thats what is so sad, that we cant do something so big and so amazing because we live our lives around money, It got us this far but need to be ended. We need to be free, and come together as an earth.

[jana6262]

I wish I would win a lottery so that I could buy a ticket for a space flight and see this live.

[iwillavengeyou]

seems so fake but its real!!!

[mrlongboarding100]

Why isn't this the most watched video on YouTube?

[lexus111888]

just beautifull..whats name of the song please?

[lopdebif]

STOP WITH THE COMMERCIALS!

[Jokker88]

@lopdebif If you're using the Firefox web browser you can install an add-on called ad-block plus which will block most ads on the internet, i didn't even know Youtube had commercials untill a couple of months ago when i formatted my harddrive and hadn't installed ad-block yet.

[seeingUFOsPA]

Say, what's that funny shaped object in the sky at 2:14 below left of center?

[spacevidcast]

@seeingUFOsPA Luna. Note that the ISS is in a fixed attitude, relative to Earth.

[mobius1234]

Where can i aquire(buy?) this song?

[mobius1234]

@mobius1234 Ben, do epic users have access to this song?

[liuwenjie6678]

Something was shoot out from the space center at 0:35...Anyone nows what is the little case on earth?...Thanks a lot!

[spacevidcast]

@liuwenjie6678 It's called a picosat, or tiny satellite. The space shuttle orbiter hauls small satellites like that to space for high schools, colleges and businesses all the time.

[fibbrokkio]

0:35????????????????

[spacevidcast]

@fibbrokkio It's called a picosat, or tiny satellite. The space shuttle orbiter hauls small satellites like that to space for high schools, colleges and businesses all the time.

[fibbrokkio]

@spacevidcast thanks...then they are retrieved?....there are problems with spacevidcast..:'-( why!?!??!thanks100000000000

[spacevidcast]

@fibbrokkio The satellites are usually not retrieved. They burn up in the atmosphere.

This is Jeph responding to comments/questions on here for Ben and Cariann, and I don't know what's wrong with the feed. They said they're working on it.

[fibbrokkio]

@fibbrokkio ok thanks:-)

[JRtransport379]

now THAT, my friends, is amazing.

[arcosamelia]

Precioso!!!!!!!!!!

[Xantec]

WOW!!!!!

0:34, a square object was ejected from the shuttle, just what was that?

[Membrane556]

@Xantec

A micro satellite.

The shuttle usually has excess payload so they'll sometimes carry small satellites and payloads for universities.

Many of these will probably fly on Dragon and the Orion after the shuttle retires.

[Eeyore3061]

@Xantec If it's STS-113 (and it should be) then it's probably the AFRL’s MEMS-based Picosatellite Inspector (MEPSI) payload.

[flexlex777]

damn space. you scary!

[kilroy238]

Next time get that beam out of the middle of the shot besides that ;) awesome awesome stuff.

[fireinthesky00]

Most beautiful 3 minutes of my life so far!

[hdamama]

So very inspiring... thank you Don for sharing your beautiful view of our precious earth.

[bwd81977]

Wonderful! There arnt any words to describe how beautiful that is!

[MrSabaNY]

Something this awesome not even a thousand views?!! I just lost all hope for humanity

[spacevidcast]

@MrSabaNY Spacevidcast has a slow burn as it were... Views will get up there, just have to give it some time. Just passed 10,000, may reach 100,000 some day.

[qetuo13577]

beautifull

[pipethought]

I wish I could see this in person. I can't wait until low earth orbit is available to the public as means of travel. (or any space travel for that matter)

Excellent video!

[ricande]

What's happening at 0:34 ? Escape-pods ejecting or what.. ;)

[Eeyore3061]

@ricande If it's STS-113 (and it should be) then it's probably the AFRL’s MEMS-based Picosatellite Inspector (MEPSI) payload.

[Taco1011]

This gave me goosebumps truly Spectacular. and music made it look SOOOO much better thanks for Uploading

[sashasally]

Absolutely beautiful.

[spacevidcast]

The song is called 'Dramatic Intro' from 'Soundroll-music' on AudioJungle . Net. Since it is licensed music it costs a wee bit more than $.99 but it is an awesome song to go with this video, IMO. I felt like the two really worked together.

[Brencs]

splendid work on the new 'outro' clip with that dubstep-ish music.

wonder if it's a full size track I could hear on youtube or is it custom made for spacevidcast?

and the timelapse - I almost cried. it's just so darn beautiful. Don has done great work for us all. :)

[spacevidcast]

@Brencs That song is also on Audio Jungle . net but I don't remember its name :(

[Brencs]

@spacevidcast well you'd make my day if you happened to remember it. :)

[Peacenrespect]

@Brencs I did cry. As I watched I forgot my mundane earthly pains .YOu know loan modification so I can pay taxes and not lose my house. Brakes on the bike,clutch on the car, {:> no love life to speakof I felt so blessed to be living in this time of Human acomplishments.Though I will miss the Shuttles and thier Blazing launches, I know we will not stop exploring. We will move towards World Peace and The eradication of Hunger andDisease.We will finaly think as one and Reavere our Mother Earth!

[Solarcoreg]

Science For the EPIC WIN.

Insanely beautiful. 

[xzaz2]

@Solarcoreg And what you see is created by God :)

[Pferdekopfnebel]

yeah guys what was that thing at 0:34, waste dumping?

[StormyWeather21]

@Pferdekopfnebel were you not paying attention?

[Pferdekopfnebel]

@StormyWeather21

actually I didn't notice any text in the video - now that you mention it...

[akierrs2]

@Pferdekopfnebel satellite

[Anamnesia]

The music sounded a lot like an orchestration of Lux Aeterna by Clint Mansell - used in Requiem for a Dream & Lord of the Rings...

[bubudelu]

excellent !

[xiaokuhu]
