A space shuttle liftoff is an awe-inspiring sight -- but the journey doesn't begin on the launch pad. Every mission begins with a carefully choreographed road trip known as "rollout," in which the fully assembled space shuttle and its mobile launcher platform are transported from the Vehicle Assembly Building to the seaside launch pad -- a journey of more than three miles.

I love the music from these videos. I wish someone had the soundtrack for download. But, I am a new generation of teenagers who hopes to one day reach for the stars just the last generation and current generation of American Space Explorers. I am glad they did preserve the control at least. God has helped to guide america on a great and rewarding path to the heavens.
