it makes me really angry when i see how unable and arbitrary you move the camera because you have no statial awareness. not only that you cant roll the camera, you also dont know how to make a spare-motion that goes around that problem. instead its just weird and weird and ANNOYING VIDEO ...

@MrTiti Bwahahaha, less coffee and a good psychiatist could helps you.

whats with the back flip after the ET separates ?? the only time the shuttle back flips is when is coming close to the ISS for docking ,

look at 0:34 seconds, i think it's self-explaining. :)

@GTElwood cant see that video it says it blocked :/ ( ive removed the dot bits ) the reason why im saying why did he do backflip was that in the umbilical doors there are camera's and when the ET seperates the cameras take pictures of the ET for some reason so if u backflip u aint gunna get pic's :)

@kirza94 I was aware that there a camera that films the ET release, just aside the feed lines, but the took photos/videos of the slow-falling ET. In the vid they are upside down, tail first and with all the stuff deployed, canadarm and obviously the payload bay doors.

The shuttle was over Terranova. (?)

Now i'm wondering how many orbits the ET do, before reentry, because the shuttle config and the location was too close to launch site.

Time to investigate a bit further. :D

@Bofarrow2 no problem ;)

[Bofarrow2]

@kirza94 Thanks for the knowledge. Much appreciated!

[kirza94]

@Bofarrow2 The shuttle only ever flips during its peek show at the ISS and before re entry the "go for pitch" means go for angle to realse external tank which is 27* i believe.

[Bofarrow2]

@kirza94 I'm not a scientist but when they say " go for the plus x, go for the pitch", it has something to do with flipping the shuttle as depicted here to take pictures of the external tank.

[kirza94]

@XdexlexyaX what do you mean the right angle ?, the shuttle releases the ET at around 28* he did that correctly but the thing he did wrong was doing a back flip after the release. Again the shuttle only back flips 2 times a mission and one of them aren't at the ET separation.

[XdexlexyaX]

@kirza94 He did not separate in the right angle
