- - Created through FAIR USE for educational purposes - - You need a sound system with a lot of power and a great sub (turned up to house shaking level) to get the right effect of this video. I made this for all the people who dreamed of seeing a launch in person but were never able to make the trip themselves. Using dozens of different video sources and countless audio versions of Shuttle launches I mixed this little clip together to mimic as close an experience to the real thing as I could. I know that the exact sequence of countdown events is somewhat compressed and not time-accurate but I was going more for the 'feel' of a high energy launch experience rather than a technical documentary. Throttle Up and SRB Separation are sounds as might be heard from onboard acoustic transducers picking up resonant vibration in the vehicle's structure. Please take care not to damage your sound equipment during playback. I did not do anything to boost the low frequency roar of the Shuttle during liftoff but the SRB and SSME thrust noise may be taxing to even high quality sub-woofers and speaker cones if played too loud. For those who sit through the last few frames you can catch a glimpse of my home theater system I built a couple of years ago. This video really is best viewed at 165 inches or better!

Why was the Soviet space shuttle left to rot?

Order: Reorder
Duration: 4:05
Updated: 16 Jun 2015

After NASA announced its space shuttle program, the Soviet Union responded with its own, nearly identical version. The Soviet Buran space shuttle and NASA's own shuttle look pretty similar, in large part because the Soviet version copied the American one. But why? And why didn't the Soviet shuttle program take off like the American one did? For more on Buran and the shuttle program that barely got off the ground, check out the latest post on VintageSpace: http://www.popsci.com/why-soviet-space-shuttle-was-left-rot Photographer Ralph Mirebs has some stunning images of two unflown orbiters languishing in a hangar on his livejournal page: http://ralphmirebs.livejournal.com/219949.html Aviation Week has a gallery of the destroyed Buran after the hangar it was in collapsed: http://aviationweek.com/blog/photos-soviet-shuttle-dreams-dust Thumbnail image via oscial.co

Inside Space Shuttle Columbia STS-107 During The Accident -- COMPLETE VIDEO

Order: Reorder
Duration: 13:07
Updated: 25 Jul 2011

On February 1, 2003, Space Shuttle Columbia was destroyed in a disaster that claimed the lives of all seven of its crew. This video is from inside the crew cabin of Space Shuttle Columbia as it begins its re-entry and contains approximately an extra 5 minutes of footage not seen elsewhere. While February 1 was an occasion for mourning, the efforts that ensued can be a source of national pride. NASA publicly and forthrightly informed the nation about the accident and all the associated information that became available. The Columbia Accident Investigation Board was established within two hours of the loss of signal from the returning spacecraft in accordance with procedures established by NASA following the Challenger accident 17 years earlier. The crew members lost that morning were explorers in the finest tradition, and since then, everyone associated with the Board has felt that we were laboring in their legacy. NASA and the Columbia Investigation Board (CAIB) sought to discover the conditions that produced this tragic outcome and to share those lessons in such a way that this nationʼs space program will emerge stronger and more sure-footed. If those lessons are truly learned, then Columbiaʼs crew will have made an indelible contribution to the endeavor each one valued so greatly. The Orbiterʼs destruction, just 16 minutes before scheduled touchdown, shows that space flight is still far from routine. It involves a substantial element of risk, which must be recognized, but never accepted with resignation. The seven Columbia astronauts believed that the risk was worth the reward.

Hey Mama
Whatcha doing in Seattle
With a needle
Shooting up into the sky
We quit smoking
On our way up from Portland
But we had to start again to get us by
No one knows which way it's gonna go
We just keep showing up
Never asking why
Not quite sure where we've been before
We just keep growing up
In order to survive
With Lisa
Getting to be vicious
You could see the damage blowing in her eyes
And Eric
Pretending not to see us
He's adding up statistics in his mind
To Vancouver
Where we had to cross the border
So we ditched our shit
Somewhere along the I-5
Were tired
Cause we spent the whole night wired
With Jane's Addiction
Blasting down the alpine
No one knows which way it's gonna go
We just keep showing up
Never asking why
Not quite sure where we've been before
We just keep growing up
In order to survive
Hey Mama
Whatcha doing in Seattle
With a needle
Shooting up into the sky

I don't feel a thing
And that's alright with me
I'll just sit and rot away
And that's okay with me
Like a flower or a bird
Singing of all the beauty in the world
When you're high and watching someone die
Watching someone die
You remind me of a snake
But only when you smile
The hurricanes, the earth quakes
But only for a while
Like a flower or a bird
Singing of all the beauty in the world
When you're high and watching someone die
Watching someone die
Now I've got you burning
On a silver spoon
Now you've got me flying,
Flying to the moon
Now you've got me wishing,
Wishing I was you
There ain't no use in crying
What good would it do?
Sleep now, forget the day
Dream, baby, dream away
Now I've got you burning
On a silver spoon
Now you've got me flying,
Flying to the moon
Now you've got me wishing,
Wishing I was you
There ain't no use in crying
