STS-114 Return to Flight

A Tribute Music Video, honoring the brave souls lost in the Space Shuttle Program. Video features the song "Countdown" by RUSH. All footage is of the STS-114 Launch.
BACKGROUND:
STS-114 was the first "Return to Flight" Space Shuttle mission following the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster. The Space Shuttle Discovery launched at 10:39 a.m. EDT, July 26, 2005. The launch, 907 days after the loss of Columbia, was approved despite unresolved fuel (ECO) sensor anomalies in the external tank; those anomalies had prevented the shuttle from launching on July 13, its originally scheduled date.

"Technology high,
On the leading edge of life"
And look where the Shuttle Program is now.
One of Rush's finest, just a pity NASA couldn't keep up.

I just met one of those astonauts on this flight, Wendy Lawrence.. Man I'm so jealous! What I would give to see the Heavens and the Earth with my own eyes as they did!!!

A long time ago I thought I read that Rush had been present for the launch of STS-1, and that they were inspired to write this song, which was released on the 1982 album Signals. The audio samples in the song are all from STS-1, including Young and Crippen's radio comms. Awesome job, dude, this vid rocks.

very good job.... BUT.... i was disappointed to notice you didnt include grisson, white and chaffe of apollo 1 at the end as well as the shuttle crews....

I like what you did with this. I actually was present for this launch and really enjoyed watching the scenes put to the audio and music. Well done!

Did you add the commentary separately or is it part of the song? It sounds like the STS-1 commentary.

Commentary is part of the song and yes, it is from STS-1. The fun was syncing the video with both lyrics and the embedded commentary.
