Some Space Shuttle videos

[stephenb]

As the STS program draws to a close I thought I'd share some You Tube links with you. Many of you may have seen some of this footage, but I'm sure you'll enjoy them again... Many of these shots are from POV (point of view) cameras on the SRB's and external tanks.


1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPQvTgD2quQ - STS-125 - POV cameras on SRB's from launch to splashdown.

2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haNLuTX2TpA&feature=channel - STS 117

3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOxZsbyjSb8&feature=related - STS-117 landing - nice footage!


4. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwfsFtpACFw&feature=related - STS-65 - inside cockpit at launch.

5. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WdQHQY0xJs&feature=related - STS-121 - inside cockpit at launch.

Yes, NASA wanted a racehorse, but ended up with a camel designed by a committee, but she will still be fondly missed.


and this one from just on 41 years ago this week... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGNryrsT7OI&feature=related ;)

Enjoy...

Stephen,

I've linked #4 here a couple of times. I watch it at least once a week. To this day, I continue to have chills down my spine throughout the entirety of that video.

Oh, to be that lucky.
