Wow. Yeah there have been a few other videos of that, but not in high def and not from different angles. Intense.

Coolest thing I've seen in a while. Had to share it with you all. I'm just young enough to have missed all the moon landing business but I grew up with the Shuttle program. It was a big deal back in grade school, the teacher would wheel in a television and we would watch the launches and landings live. In the later years it got maybe a few seconds on the evening news. Sad to see it go. I always wanted to go down to the cape and watch a launch but never got around to it.
I spent some time in the USAF working on jets and missiles so needless to say this stuff gets me going.
