Very impressive effects. Notice there are no stars in the background. Hint. The suns real light would be so much sharper that you would not be able to see it and how on 6:17 it was edited. If it was real footage throughout the video, there would be no editing. Hint

Hint: There are no stars in the background because of the light being reflected of the earth's surface.

Cool vid, thanks!

There are a few give aways to indicate that the entirety of the video is not all it seems to be.

"If it was real footage throughout the video, there would be no editing. Hint "

Right because watching the underside of three parachutes for five minutes would be _really_ fun wouldn't it.

[amievery1]

Sure would. The sun's light is so powerful that it would blind you instantly out in space because in the most sunniest of days we squint our eyes and wear sun glasses and in this case there is a trace of falsity.

@amievery1 What does the sun and the intensity of its light have to do with watching this video that was captured by a special camera and not a human eye? It isn't like the camera would go blind and that it wasn't specifically designed for this particular use.

Furthermore, if this WAS a fake, then I'm sure you would have seen stars edited in. Given the amazing "effects" in this video, I'm pretty sure that little white dots wouldn't have been that difficult to insert. Thanks.

That's just an actor's studio. The world we live in has two sides. A mirror image. We learn to throw objects up in the air. Oh look, where? I look up the nightsky and I never see one. Thanks.

Very cool, once I figured out the video was coming from the SRB and not from the orbiter!

[ConsciousDistortion]

All our efforts just to resist gravity :)

Amazing footage.
