Raw Video: Space Shuttle Discovery Lifts Off

[adamknight88]

------> i bet you theres gonna be a nipple video.

[heathey2]

Well I want to record my mark on some videos before the final ever launch of the shuttle program. What a historic and very emotional moment this is. Thankyou to all the great minds at NASA who have worked on or with the shuttles in any way over the past 30 years. Thankyou to the NASA family for giving the world something that it will never forget. The space shuttles are real American icons. God speed to the crew of Atlantis and I hope everybody enjoys this historic event.

once again, the battle between evolution and creation has struck again

THIS IS A FREAKING SPACE SHUTTLE VIDEO!

[michelXShawn]

i look in awe as the people in the shuttle visit outer space. makes you wish you were there to see it.

[The0Burger0King]

Shuttle launches look so much cooler at night!

[ripperkillerX]

Cool thing

[wangzheyou]

Very cool, cool spacecraft than the Chinese more

[therichipro]

WTF

[TK42138]

@chiefdavidOK

Well said.

There's a research lab near where I live (Cambridge UK) that was in the news recently because the scientists were not adverse to changing the figures to fit the theory. So now, a gullible government wants to tax us all dry in the flimsy excuse that we have to pay for 'climate change.'

[chiefdavidOK]

@TK42138 It's very unfortunate that your country and others are filling their pockets with currency at the taxpayers expense for what is simply a natural occurrence of the planet Earth.

[TK42138]

@chiefdavidOK

We're just 'easy pickings' from the government's point of view. The motorist is also an easy target. They seem to forget that the recent volcanic eruptions have put more crap into the atmosphere than the combined CO2 output of every car in the UK. Trouble is they can't tax a volcano....

[Chrisjr2007]

8 and a half minutes ride to orbit,17,500 miles per hour,4 and a half million pounds of THRUST! : )

[Lionheart1188]

Cool :P

[bestamerica]

i love american space shuttle is a so pretty flying plane outer space,,,

it is better than ussr russia cheap buran shuttle

[evilomen725]

i would love to get a chance to do this sometime in my life

[diah4]

Those are some bold people. That has to feel amazing. I wonder if they take telescopes with them to look at other planets while they're up there. oh and can they see the comets flying by Earth? hmm....

[chrisyoungprince]

i would have loved to see it blow....on a good note they wont be back to about 2015 ish

[muralkz]

Hi everyone I'm a chinese guy ,I love discovery it's amasing ....

[prrinceYT]

nice video

[zythepsarian]

DID THEY DIED

[urbanprophet777]

Closing the eyes.Prepare for impact???Disinform the public?And remvoe all responsibility??

[BillyBatsonMarvel]

The Climate has and always WILL CHANGE, too bad the Global Warming scam fell through and AL Gore had to rename it to Climate Change. lmao.

Don't worry true believers we shall all pay huge taxes to save a Planet that can't Die. Mother Earth is immortal her immune system will eradicate the disease known as mankind.

[BillyBatsonMarvel]

Not even their (13 bloodlines / 10% the RULE us all) D.U.M.B bases can save them from Mother Earth's wrath.

[chaz000006]

Controlled explosions are cool, but it's pathetic to think we're still using 70 year old Nazi technology to get into space.

[ghamiltonmiller]

11,000 pounds of fuel per second!!

[GuPpI17]

I Wuz There This Morninqqq! It Wuz Amazinqqq!!!

[Grey4920]

Why must hippies ruin every space shuttle launch with their Global Warming crap!

Can't wait for the day when we find other life out there it will be a great day intelligent or not, with all the galaxies in this Universe there has to be one containing a planet hosting some form of life.

[qbslug]

does anyone know how fast the shuttle travels when in orbit and on re-entrance

[cory2146]

@qbslug 27000 MPH I think.

[singbecause]

only thing missing here was the phrase I've come to abhor, "go with throttle up", the final words spoken to shuttle astronauts in the past before tragedy took place. Spectacular video here though, a testament to the ingenuity of the human race.

[reg373]

At 1 Billion per launch, the Shuttle is finally getting retired and Obama's admin will review NASA in a comprehensive way. I don't believe they will fund much beyond unmanned missions in this time of fiscal crisis -- saw a cool site; Balkingpoints ; incredible satellite view of earth

[Flash1958ful]

evolution is impossible. period...i suppose your car evolved out of a camels ass

[nicksutherby]

@Flash1958ful yes, cause that's a logical argument.

[dravin369]

@nicksutherby hello

[exconguitar]

@Flash1958ful  is that why it's an established FACT?

[Flash1958ful]

cant wait until nasa has to go green. i wanna see a battery operated shuttle.,

[WC3POchannel10A]

Sail on Discovery, sail on. I miss seeing you my friend. Even after her time to explore is done, she will live on in my memory and heart.

[height198cm]

that camera has some pretty good zoom lol

[IRONMANAustralia]

I thought that decrepit old piece of crap was in moth balls.

[cookiehead2]

@IRONMANAustralia They don't have the money to design, build and test a new one, so they're stuck with it.

[IRONMANAustralia]

@cookiehead2 Fuck.

[lisamcknight01]

who hoo!!! xxx

[AngeloProduction]

I saw this!

[jonjon181]

that must be some intense g forces

[TrutherD1]

Photoshop? :P

[SkyDaddy7]

The same exact "science" that has put hundreds into space is the same exact science that knows climate change is real & humans are most ikely the cause...The same science that knows ALL LIFE evolved on planet Earth.

Science is why religious people can get on their computers & say science is bunk...Kinda ironic!

[comgeek24]

@SkyDaddy7 It is, isn't it? LOL

[erikab534]

@SkyDaddy7 "ALL LIFE evolved on planet Earth"? No true scientist would ever make such an unprovable claim. We know that life can survive extreme environments like the life forms we find around hydrothermal vents on the ocean floors of Earth. We also know that bacteria (life) can remain dormant in space with no water, nutrients, or protection from radiation and spring back to life when given the correct conditions. Google "Earth microbes on the moon" and Nasa will tell you what's up :)

[erikab534]

I hate it when people try to use "science" to support a totally non-scientific claim. Nasa wouldn't even exist, at least not the Nasa that we know, if the scientists of the world really believed that ALL LIFE evolved on Earth. Why do you think that we are so interested in Mars? It's not all the pretty rocks my dear. Part of Nasa's mission statement is, "To find life beyond."

[SkyDaddy7]

@erikab534 LOL! What life on Earth did not evolve on Earth? And please find me a peer reviewed paper that has not been shredded that says otherwise.

If they find life on Mars then that life probably evolved on Mars.

I have no idea what your point is...

[erikab534]

@SkyDaddy7 Your earlier statement was that "ALL LIFE evolved on Earth" which is simply an unprovable theory of yours, not science. ALL LIFE means ALL LIFE. I guess you meant to say all life on planet Earth evolved on planet Earth. Still, not really a provable statement

[llamatron132]

@erikab534 you my friend, are a dumbass, its easily provable, and the theory of evolution vs. creation is like the mail man coming with your mail vs. the tooth fairy coming when you lose a tooth

[SkyDaddy7]

@llamatron132 Excellent point! Most of my fellow Americans have no clue the evidence that supports the theory of Evolution. Thay think it is simply a guess or scientist trying to prove Bronze Age Religion wrong...I honestly think if they took the time to see the evidence they would be SHOCKED at just how much there really is! Within the scientific community & those who take the time to read there is no question ALL LIFE on Earth evolved, period.

[SkyDaddy7]

@erikab534 Not a provable statement? The proof that ALL LIFE "on Earth" shares a common ancestor is extremely strong and growing by the day. So, I am not sure what your point is.

There is no competing "Scientific Theory" to the Theory of Evolution that describes the diversity of life on Earth, period!

[Grey4920]

@SkyDaddy7 Climate change is real, Humans are not causing it. Science proved it. Science is the cause of a lot of bull shit along with liars claiming that they used science. Have you seen those videos where the polar bears have to swim miles in search of food and they go onto these ice flows? Just a little bit of info hear the Polar Bears have done that since humans first seen them. If you're one those people that think humans came from apes then you are wrong. We have changed but, always human.

[N97Tjoohej]

@SkyDaddy7 Omg, i so agree with you, and also the last 2 lines are funny and so true at the same time :D.

[dimaniak5]

@SkyDaddy7 actually many scientists say that there are no climate change.

[chiefdavidOK]

An Agenda which will make Gore and many other elitist many more millions because they invested a fortune in the corporations that will profit if the Green Movement takes hold, forcing home and commercial builders to conform to green standards. Look to Gores private jet and excessive energy wasting mansion to open your eyes to the hypocritical nature of what is really behind the " Green Movement " and that is greed.

[SkyDaddy7]

@chiefdavidOK Green Tech has nothing to do with Gore...The entire world is racing to be the country who can offer the world the best Green Tech...As long as right wing knuckle draggin folks in this country try to make it a political issue the further the USA will fall behind! It seesm Republicans/Conservatives/Tea Baggers/whatever want America to continue losing ground in science to the rest of the world!

[jurbina15]

@SkyDaddy7

ima favorite this video because of your awesome comment =]

[chiefdavidOK]

@jurbina15 lol, ha, ha, ha The only motivating factor involved by countries racing to offer the best Green Tech is too consume the most wealth from it, simply greed.

[bobjones3210]

@SkyDaddy7 true science and true religion have to be compatible...otherwise one or the other is wrong. In many cases, actually most cases, the religion is wrong, why? because it is theoretical based on faith, something that does not have concrete proof to support it. Scientists call it a Theory. Now, the question remains...is science also sometimes wrong? No, however scientific theories are, and one of those in many people's belief is the THEORY OF EVOLUTION. It is not the exact same science.

[rockerresident]

@SkyDaddy7 just a question.. who predicted first that there will be an end of the world? bible or science

[chiefdavidOK]

@SkyDaddy7 LOL, how funny you, the brainwashed are. Since the Earth existed temperatures have fluctuated drastically throughout time up and down according to solar flares from the Sun, planet alignment, ect. not from a Chevy Tahoe. Since Al Gore first released his self-serving propaganda movie 'An Inconvenient Truth' , the earth has cooled by one degree,

[TK42138]

@chiefdavidOK

Well said.

The sun's output fluctuates constantly, volcanism has always shaped our climate and will continue to do so. The CO2 from car use is a 'drop in the ocean' compared to what comes out of the earth via volcanoes and from the mouths of politicians...

[bluefishvarsity]

@SkyDaddy7 the "science" of evolution is not science, it's rather a religion. no one has ever found fossils of one animal becoming another, and besides, if physics and entropy are3 true, it wouldn't be possible for life to "evolve" from nonliving matter. experiments that claim to be scientifically produce life have produced nothing but a few amino acids and toxins that would actually prevent life from developing. "Global warming " might actually earth's naturally heating & cooling cycle.

[orbitalblowout]

@SkyDaddy7 I'm a "religious person" and I approve this message.
