  • The shuttle is Discovery.  You can hear the CAPCOM say "Discovery, Houston" in the opening seconds of the clip.

  • a beautiful planet full of scum

  • Amazing & Beautiful View Of Earth....!

  • Comment removed

  • @Lifter85, How do you figure it's Obama's fault? If you were really up on NASA Technology and spaceflight, you'd know of the next ship called Orion, which will REPLACE the STS. You need to read your facts before opening up your mouth like an idiot. Do you seriously think we'd be leaving 6 people on the ISS?? The STS has to retire due to the age of it's design. Orion is taking it's place.

  • @Orion13622 Actually Orion is only the crew capsule. We have NO rocket under NASA development because Obama cancelled the Ares rocket portion of the Orion program. We now will need to rely on the Russia to get into space until private company's like Space X complete testing on the Falcon and Falcon Heavy rocket. We should have funded the shuttle until the new rockets were flight ready. Bush cancelled the shuttle program but funded NASA to develop a new Ares human and Ares Heavy lift rocket.

  • THANKS TO OBAMA WE WON'T BE GOING INTO SPACE ANYMORE!!!! FUCKING FAGGOT FUCK!!!

  • 11 religious people dislik... oh fuck it.

  • mmm kfc

  • I can see my house from there! THUMBS UP :P

  • Just think how fast they're crusin, they must be haulin ass, one thing I wanna do is go in space that'd be soooo cool like, I still can't believe we've made it to space thats amazing

  • @xXxDANMANxXx 17580 miles an hour to be exact. Upon re-entry, the STS is moving at a speed of MACH 25. Hard S-Turns slow her down for landing. Hope that helps. :)

  • hahahaha nahh tomorrows uhhh KFC only uhh for tuesday we'll look at other sites but for tomorrow we'll just call up KFC

  • where are the stars ?

  • LOL truly it did sound as if they said KFC.

  • Is this a real video of the earth? if it is, its so beautiful.. Someone please let me know..

  • @KorieluvsMJ of course it is, its probably from the International Space Station.

  • @crazyboyxx K-S-C

    Kennedy Space Center,

    LOL, not KFC!

  • no pussy

  • so if you weigh 150pounds on earth, you still weigh 150pounds in space. and it still requires the same muscle strength to push that weight into any direction. But the power that required you to move will not exhaust,

    so after you pull yourself on a ladder and move 3kph, you do not require more force to keep yourself going in that direction, cause the capsule (living cabin, aka spaceshuttle or iss capsule) freefalls with the same force as your own body does.

  • @crazyboyxx lol

  • @crazyboyxx really? KFC= Kennedy Flight Center

  • @AngelPM125 if the earth doesn't move around the sun does that mean the seasons and day/night on earth are magical? XD and would you rather trust people thousands of years ago who never had the technology to get into space? let alone fly ^^ and after all why the f* would the whole WORLD'S SCIENTISTS lie about this? is it a super secret science secret? XD and btw the reason it dosnt look like it's moving is that the satalite is in ORBIT ^^ the best location to contact a base is to be OVER it=)

  • @wolfauraa

    i quoted the wrong guy somehow, message wasnt meant for angel,

    no idea what this guys is trying to point out, ^^^^

    Saying the earth shouldnt go around the sun isnt magical but phytothetical. Every gram of matter in the universe accounts to the law of gravity. Gravity is part of our universe. If you would deny the workings of gravity its like saying, hey my computer doesnt work on electricity but on light. And since light = electricity (or power) it makes no sense.

  • just as you would say that the earth shouldnt go around the sun somehow.

    lets just assume that the earth didnt go around the sun (which therefore basically means that gravity didnt exist)

    the earth would travel into outer space and leave the suns distance by every second, in one month, the change in the illumination of the sun (due to the increase distant) will cause atmospheric changes, and therefore hurricanes, world wide tornadoes.

    in a mere 2 months, the overal climate temperature

  • will drop by 5 degrees, making our atmosphere very toxic, and cold to ofcourse.

    in 6 months we would be at jupiters orbit, at which times our planet will be a iceball.

    the atmosphere will freeze, nitrogen oxygen, carbondioxide, will enter fluid or solid state, removing all of the earths atmosphere.

    and the axial roll and tilt will not change after hundred millions of years, so it wouldnt affect seasonal changes.

    then again, we will have no sun either, so we will not experience any

  • seasons whatsoever.

  • Hi i'm just curious, in Hollywood movies the space scene is always full of shining stars and its beautiful but on actual space footage the space is pitch black, so what showing in the movie isn't real ? can someone help me pls

  • nice

  • Did he say "KFC?" Are they going to stop for chicken if the weather conditions are favorable?

  • YOU PEOPLE ARE SO SIMPLE...YOU SEE THIS VIDEO....NOTICE THE EARTH ISN'T MOVING....THE VEHICLE THE CAMERA IS MOUNTED ON IS MOVING CAUSE OF DUH OF COURSE 0 GRAVITY....BUT THE CLOUDS WHICH ARE MOVING MAKE THE EARTH APPEAR LIKE ITS MOVING WHEN ITS NOT...AND THEY SHOW THIS TO YOU RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE AND YOU SEE NOTHING.....

  • @AngelPM125 what does that prove?

  • @GREGGORVICH12 THAT PROVES THAT YOUR COUNTRY AS LIED TO YOU AGAIN AND THE EARTH DOES NOT ROTATE AT ALL....WHICH ALSO MEANS THAT WE DO NOT REVOLVE AROUND THE SUN...

  • Are you trolling are you just plain fucking retarded....

    I hope to god that you're just trolling. If not, then I would be glad to invest all my money for better educational programs.

  • Tell me, how did you convinced the Mental Hospital to let you used their computer?

  • Comment removed

  • @AngelPM125 and sorry to moan all that i just try to set people right that have science wrong =) we all have what we want to believe in and so I feel stupid to push ideas I got taught into someone's conversation.

  • @AngelPM125

    i know your to ignorant, and i know my message is fruitless, i also know your probably never read it, but i cannot let any living being get away, with such uneducated comment. If it was a sarcastic message, save them in the future. You cannot detect sarcasm over the internet.

    If you were serious...

    you probably have no idea, how uneducated and stupid your sound in the eyes of someone that isnt. You clearly have no idea how gravity works either.

    Zero gravity doesnt exist

  • it doesnt exist, you only experience it. you see the clouds move because the background is blue and transparant,

    also the video cameras in space are cheap because they need to supprot the vaccuum of space and the force of propellant that the rocket drives. So you cannot mount a HD camera on a rocket, so it always looks more blurry then it would look when you film on the ground.

    the clouds do not move, the surface of the earth moves. You cannot see the surface as it moves because the blue

  • sea looks completely transparant to the clouds. And as every vehicle in low earth orbit needs to move atleast about 7500meters per second you will see a blue transparant orb surrounded by blackness,

    and the only fucus point are the clouds itself, which illusionate the sight that the clouds are moving rather then the surface itself.

    secondly, zero gravity doesnt exist. You experience it.

    Because you escape the gravity at which the earth pulls on you,. that is a constant unchangeable

  • force. Meaning you need a constant velocity to escape from it. Once you reach that velocity, you escape earths gravity by the same force that it pulls on you. So your continually falling towards the earths.

    a spacecraft itself (the iss for example) still has the same weight that it has on earth, it still weighs several tons and it still requires the same force to move that weight. Because you are freefalling however that force will not exhaust itself.

  • so things appear weightlessness. But practially theyre still as heavy as they would be on the surface.

  • Dear friend touch & love please.

    'life & world is very beautiful.long live peace & learn.love'

  • omg our planet is damn beautiful

  • 0:12 thats me!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can see me!!!!!

  • Is this an actual earth spin in this clip or is it the shuttle moving?

  • the problem i have with all these low orbit clips, is that are land masses are so huge and yet in every clip i see on here i cannot recognise any continent or country, surely by now we would have footage of, the uk, italy boot shaped, west coast of usa, australia is immence and yet no footage whatsoever ....so fake or not fake is the question..

  • @goldroversix i looked close , the clouds apear to move faster that rotation speed would that mean wind speeds thousands of miles per hour? FAKE

  • @goldroversix - Um .. I already seen a video on youtube of the satellite orbit over UK ... There's a video of shots from the ISS on 9/11 zooming into the world trade center wear you can see all the smoke ... Satellite Imagery of Japan and Eastern United States. Just gotta look thrugh.

  • I think I'm going to download this, just for the view.

  • 素晴しい!

  • Darn those KFCs.. kloroflourocarbons... ruining the upper atmosphere.

  • @mizicko702 hey dumbass, that only happens on earth because light gathers and bounces of gases in our atmosphere. The only reason you can't see stars there, is because they are still in the atmosphere, which goes out a lot farther than you think. You comparing a city to space is just stupid. The lunar landings were fake because there were no stars. The moon has no gases on it. Also, it's very obvious that nasa nor russia has ever even left the very out parts of the atmosphere.

  • @jewfrodavis Actually, mizicko702 is perfectly correct. The light reflecting from the sun off the Earth is many orders of magnitude brighter than that coming from the stars. This means that when the video camera is set to expose Earth correctly, the stars are so dim as to be invisible against the black backdrop of space. If the camera were exposing bright enough to show the stars, the earth would appear so bright as to be a solid ball of white.

  • Look how fast there travelling !! , a whole country zoomining by the window in seconds !!!! what is the average speed at that height does anybody know?

  • @DrivenUpTheWall1

    The speed needed to balance out earth's gravity so you don't fall back to the ground is around 7.9km/s (4.9 miles per second). That's their orbiting speed.

  • @MeisterHydron Thanks for the info , thats unbeleivable isnt it , to travel so fast. I see so they are actually continually falling but there going so fast there falling round the edge constantly so that way they dont fall bak to earth haha, thats amazing.

  • @DrivenUpTheWall1

    yeah it's incredible when you try to imagine it!!

  • lol no star's guys ! FAKE !!

  • hey dumb ass, you cant see the stars because the sun's shining off the earth, think of it as being in a major city you cant see the stars from there either, guess its fake...........go learn some crap before you run your mouth, dumb ass.

  • @jonnyfunkson hey dumb ass, you cant see the stars because the sun's shining off the earth, think of it as being in a major city you cant see the stars from there either, guess its fake...........go learn some crap before you run your mouth, dumb ass

  • to think that these guys are traveling at 20 to 30,000 mph..scary

  • I thought NASA had better cameras LOL

  • I think it looks bad because it's compressed by youtube (and maybe he who uploaded it)

  • its fake

  • im surprised we can still get videos like this with all the satelites up there

  • One question: Why can't we see stars in the black portion of this video?

  • The quality is bad

  • @joroma77

    Good point

  • it is so beautiful.

    the whole space is amazing,only is sad that we dont respect our nature enough :(

  • It makes me sad seeing Earth so beautiful, and seeing what people are doing to the Earth, damaging, crushing and wrecking this delicate surface on which we relly on to live. :[

  • @LionesslionRawr If we didn't damage the delicate surface, we couldn't bulid these space ships and NASA haven't been able to record this video.

  • well, people in the world are damaging it too much and its causing a major problem.

  • yeah but if we want to develop technology, we must damage Earth and it's resources. Unfortunetaly

  • true, but hurtful.

  • You have to work real hard at watching a piece of video like this and others like it and not believing God created it all. God is the master behind such an amazing earth and how it all fits together in the universe. I am also struck with the idea of looking at earth from space with all the people, lives, the good and bad going on but in space is perfectly quiet and still. That's enough sentiment for today..

  • Have you ever seen a man freefall from space?..parachute?? It happened

  • You're talking about Air Force high altitude balloon project , Guy jumped from over 100,000 feet, not space but pretty high. His name was Kittinger.

  • best weather man inthe universe

  • I sometimes forget how lucky we are to be able to live in a planet that has perfect temp. perfect smell, perfect color, perfect food, perfect landscapes.

  • respect. absolutlmy true

  • Perfect, you call natural catastrophes, drought, smell? how about volcanic eruptions? they dont smell good and all the animals that can create the most horrible smells perfect color? how can colors be perfect? And food can be disgusting if not prepared right. Id hardly say that out planet is perfect. good/ideal would be better words tbh

  • That's evolution not luck- we have evolved to fit our environment.

  • only in the past few years did i notice that, life is so amazing and we know noting about it

  • you cant see the stars because earth is reflecting light ...like you cant see stars when you are in big city surrounded with lights...

  • Thanks iviw. I always wondered that but never thought to ask. Glad Drug asked. Makes sense.

  • Okay 1st of all that sentence needs to be edited. Secondly, i don't think you know what you are talking about. Earth is an amazing piece of rock and without it you wouldn't exist. In fact, did you know there are estimated about 60,000,000,000 planets with earth-like atmospheres in our galaxy alone. Now imagine, what are the odds some of those have life with hundreds of billions of known galaxies. Considering milky way is a relatively small galaxy, what are the odds of more life in the universe?

  • udhammachao is merely a troll trying to get attention. Don't reply to his comment anymore.

  • i find the posts that descend into talk about monkeys and christ in the same sentence hillarious. absolutely classic. You can bet your life that only

  • scary !shit!

  • What are those men talking about? I can´t understand it very well.

  • grazie domy per averlo condiviso sei molto gentile..ciao...pier

  • Yeah you can't beat KFC 3 pieces of chicken 2 hotwings and fries.

  • What number on the menu is that?

  • meal 3 of course

  • this is real?

  • hell yeah. Amazing huh? This is real.

  • i reckon it might be japan. in another picture from space i saw once i was trying to work out what i was looking at and it turned out to be italy, i was suprised by how large it was

  • how come it looks fake for some reason lol like what continent is that right there any body know????

  • I'd love to see the earth from space, but It'll probably never happen lol

  • its true................. :(

  • @Timcookie321 there are several companys in the works trying to achieve commercial space flight.... in the next 5-10 years.. if you got 200 000 dollars... you will be able to buy tickets for space shuttles that will take you to the edge of our atmosphere, aka space let you feel no gravity... then fly back to earth

  • @101andrewj awesome!!!!!! i'll deffinetly save up for that

  • @Timcookie321 You just did it ;-)

  • @Timcookie321 Our tecnology is advancing at a rate that in your lifetime getting to space would be easy and cheap. Thats if people started careing about nasa anymore >>

  • @midgetunion true

  • wat 2 say wat 2 say

  • I give a shit :)

  • yeah but what happens if we do find water or life on mars?so what?it wont make a difference to my life

  • Water is already found on mars :) Underneath the surface, and don't forget the icepoles on top of mars.

    Though, I never said there's life on mars. I just said I give a "shit" about the universe. It's the picture of perfection to me. No coindence, so it makes me feel bigger then normal. I am the observer, without me or your there wouldn't be any objects in the universe. There must be an observer, and you should be thankful you can observe it every day.

  • couldnt have said it better! BRAVO

  • You are right. The significance of finding life on Mars would be completely lost on the simpleminded. The rest of us would like to know.

  • you just got fucked up "juddzer"

  • maybe it won't make a difference to you're life but it would make a difference to all those christians and muslims who think we are the only life in the universe. ALot of belief systems will be broken that day freind.

  • i am a Christen, but i don't see how extra terrestrial life could disprove Christ.

    Now i dont believe that there is no life off earth because i believe in a creator. i dont believe in extra terrestrial life because the chances of another life sustaining planet to come into existence in the entire known universe is tremendously improbable,

    There is something like 250 different characteristic that must come into play for life sustaining planet to exist. why there is even one, boggles the mind.

  • The whole universe is "life sustaining" as the building blocks of space is not matter but consciousness. The universe is alive. We are nothing but monkeys with the special characteristic of understanding the solar system. Humans are not much of a higher life form at all. So, get off your pedestal and realize your ample limitations.

  • Humans don't claim to own the universe or be better than all of God's creations. Especially when it comes to the wonders of space!! He has created far more wondrous things than I, and the human race. Many more things larger, many more beautiful.. I do believe there is most likely other life, but who's to say it's oxygen breathing? Just because it is unlike us and different, does not make it less important or significant.

  • You can't speak for all humans. Other life is not different at all. Most life in this galaxy is very similar to that on earth. Aliens will be very familiar to you because all life on earth came from space. Like a flower in a pot, Earth was seeded with life. Great storms don't only carry dust into space, but human DNA and that of all species on earth. Life is everywhere.

  • You don't believe that life can exist elsewhere because you believe in a creator? Huh? If there is a creator why would it make life only on what amounts to a dustballs worth of space when it would have 95 billion light yrs of space to work with? Life is most likley the norm in the universe. The planets are so far apart we may never confirm it though. And those 250 characteristics that come into play will pop up over a trillion times with the numbers in the universe.

  • ok, say all of these characteristics were at 1-2% chance, ok, you would have billions of life sustaining rocky planets.

    now lets say one of the characteristics were less then 10 to the negative 83. that is essentially a ZERO, now imagine if nearly all of the 250 characteristics were like that, (and they are). Now you see the picture.

    but i do believe in a creator and i do believe in extra terrestrial life.

  • to refuse the media bullshit is simple

    they are payed to make a slave out of anyone

    period

  • lol

  • hubble ftw

    If you're assuming that this video is fake, why wouldn't NASA know to add stars if that is what is supposed to happen?

  • Right, is everything fake to you?

    If you saw a fire in your living room, would it be fake? And also, your failure in Science is amusing. Explain how the Fuck is this fake when ever other month, I can see the Space Shuttle go up into space from my front yard. I can see the Space Shuttle Main engines till flaring well into space after SRB sep if its a Night launch. Dumbass.

  • ALSO People from New Jersey, Manhattan, North Carolina coast can see the Space Shuttle if its a night launch.

    PLUS Explain wtf I see ever other night brighter than Venus going over my head? I believe its called the International Space Station.

    Amusing it goes over head exactly when they say it does.

  • you are absolutely wrong. don't be ignorant. grab a physics book. and read it.

  • you're an idiot. its basic physics. for every action there's an equal and opposite reaction. if you threw a tennis ball in a vacuum the same force which you applied to the ball is applied to yourself and you would move in the opposite direction. Momentum is conserved in a vacuum. You can't refute this.

  • exactly guitar2adam!

    he hardly knows what he's talking about

  • hes correct you know. Newton's 3rd law of physics relating to opposite forces and friction.

  • Oh beautiful for spacious skies

  • cool story bro

  • Come on Bob, tighten up that tin foil helmet and take your meds !!!

  • all the stories about rockets going in outer space is fake, it is propaganda, to make the power of the nations look without limits, it is like a religion trying to make the unreal more important than the real life, this to have better control over the population, while the people are loosing their individuality, thinking that unreality is a part of themselves [which is not true, only reality constitutes the body]

  • it is not possible to go higher than the hight the airplanes go

    when there is no more oxygen, the engines do not function anymore

  • explain why a machine needs oxygen? to breath is it?

  • yeah why is it fake ? looks real to me .

  • this is not the real earth

    these images are ultra faked

    stop believing in all this nasa bullshit, it is very sick

  • let me guess, nasa is the man and trying to control us? lol

  • earth will have a 10.9 earthquake and earth will fall out of its orbit zone and will float around in space.

    no replay dicks

  • hahahahaha!!!

  • To think there's so much CHAOS under its calm

  • why would they be fake? are you one of these "the earth is flat" people?

  • lmao

  • Clearly fake! If it were real you could see all the people! lol

  • a weather balloon reaching only the stratosphere expands to incredible size and explodes

    an object to move by itself has to lean on a gaz or a fluid, in vacuum it is not possible to have the opposite force necessary for a movement, the force reacting to the force produced by the object's engine that should be equal for any movement to happen

  • put a ballon full of air in a vacuum chamber at your local physic laboratory, strike it with a pin, and you will see with your own eyes that the ballon doesn't deflate and go berserk in random direction with comic sounds

    von braun orbital theories are against physical possibilities, to get away from earth's attraction is an impossibility rightly proven by newton's laws

    a serious physicist should be more critic in front of such image fakery, this panoramic movement is a visual impossibility

  • A popped balloon filled with air in a vacuum chamber would go more 'beserk' than it would when surrounded by normal air pressure. This would be because of the large pressure difference between the internal air pressure of the balloon and external pressure of the vaccuum chamber, which would equalize extremely quickly. This is why air gets sucked out of plane at high altitudes if a window is broken. Why is escaping the earth's gravity an "impossibility rightly proven by Newton's laws"?

  • F=MA

  • The sun does not have oxygen. The sun is a result of hydrogen & helium fusion much like a Hydrogen bomb. There is no oxygen needed or present for this to occur.

  • theories about the sun are all unsecures, my proposition of oxygen seems the worse possible i must recognize, in fact i just wanted to say the sun has a combustive gaz

  • learn how to spell and I won't think you're a kook.. Oh wait yes I will.

  • STS-116 on Orbit.

  • nice

  • wonderful!!!!

  • why did you watch the vid then???

  • I want KFC.

  • so I guess the crew are having KFC for lunch?
