Solid Rocket Booster Video


This is pretty incredible, I don’t think Spielberg or Lucas could have done any better.

They put a camera in one of the two solid rocket boosters on a Space Shuttle flight, the video starts as the shuttle is skyrocketing into space, then suddenly, both boosters seperate. The Camera view is from one of those boosters, you can see both the shuttle, and the other booster seperating, and then the fall back to earth, all the way into the ocean.

Two things that surprised me, the noise, and how quick the return to the ocean was.
