@ThermalHD & @VultureCulture2000X - The jet coming out of the tank serves two purposes... 1, It's to make sure the tank is completely empty (MECO happens before the tank is completely empty) 2, It's to induce a tumble in the tank to increase friction on re-entry to help with the destruction of the tank
I thought re-entry was one of the highlights of a space shuttle flight... In this video, there is nothing between undocking and gliding approach... But anyway... A video featuring the Space Shuttle can only be amazing.
@VultureCulture2000X Thats not a leak. Its a small engine there shooting something out to change the tank direction. :) aka stear it in the right direction.
I wish more Americans, especially those in Congress, would place a greater priority on funding NASA rather than the rabid militarism of the Department of Defense. I understand that every nation needs a defense force but the U.S. treats their own like the Empires of past did, through Imperial expansion, invasion and occupation.
Wouldn't America be better served with a more humble military and a supercharged space agency? Think of what NASA could do with $100 billion a year or more.
The music theme is EPIC!!!
