  • The air to ground loop is not heard here due to it being a classified mission for the US DOD.

  • @ceredigio I know I was there at Kennedy Space Center lol.

  • Weird to think it was the last launch of Atlantis AND the entire shuttle programme yesterday. Lord knows when we'll see a manned launch again :-(

  • @EndeavourLaunch It was in fact on 8 July 2011 :-(

  • I can't wait to go see Atlantis when she finds her museum!

  • Atlantis's last launch was yesterday.. :-(

  • Thanks for posting this. Very clear audio & video from a launch & landing that had occurred back in 1985. How did you preserve the videotaped footage for all of these years?

  • Great video! These videos are going to become an invaluable teaching and research tool when they retire the space shuttle.
