Audio Commentary and hi-res video....

An excellent 45 minutes spent.

I love the commentary. Where would the world be without nerds and talk of vectoring exhaust? :D

I still get a thrill out of the old high speed shots of ice falling away from the Saturn V booster and the "United States" scrolling by the camera as it lifts.

Not nearly as awesome as Ascent, but I was at KSC for the (now scrubbed) launch of STS-133. (I'll be back at the media site for the launch... hopefully)

NASA rolled out the red carpet, and our group got to take a stroll through the VAB. I chronicled my walk out of the building (going from one side to the other)

To give you an idea of the size, you'll notice that I never really stopped walking. (Except for a brief photobombing of some friends)

Oh, and check out the STS-134 SRB Nose Cones. They make a little cameo towards the end.
