I remember Columbia. Challenger I was 3. When Discovery retired I lost hope. We need to be exploring. It’s the final frontier.
Taking us through history is very great, I am enjoying the Voice of America narration.
I watched the whole Apollo program in grammar school. We had a G.I.Joe model of the Gemini capsule. He fit right in there, spacesuit and all. We're still at stage 1 of the Sphinx Riddle. We were incredibly lucky. I think space will always be dangerous, just as it always has...
I remember as a child looking up at the full moon and my sister saying to me it’s hard to believe people are walking around up there and I thought it’s amazing alright
I was also at Stapleton (the old Denver International airport) when it came in for the night. Not the life changing event like for Jeremy, but it was an awesome sight. Dad was an Air Force/ANG/Airline pilot flying C-130's out of Cheyenne with the Wyoming ANG and B-727's out of Denver with United Airlines so I knew about airplanes. This beast was like nothing I ever imagined. There were no scheduled 747's flying into Denver then, so that was a sight in itself, but the shuttle on its back was like Star Trek.
Of course, I agree that things shouldn't be rushed to the point of failing safeguards. But...
Bravo.
GRATIDÃO. OBRIGADO. EMOCIONADO.
This was great, can’t wait for Part 2 baby…😎👍
OMG, the music....goodbye
SLS is like building a car from NOS (new old stock) parts. They put stickers over the STS badges.
Impressive video!!!
Is there a Part 2?
Skylab had a lot more than is mentioned here. It was an observatory and had a spectroscope and hundreds of experiments. Also, the docking mechanism wasn’t Gemini - it was Apollo… The Shuttle’s main problem was it was an air force project. Designed by them. They abandoned it and left NASA with a “space truck” design and the air force hardly used it and went back to Titan rockets for satellite launches. A space station wasn’t part of the plan for the shuttle. That was only planned 23 years after the first shuttle launch - in September 1993…. So after Apollo - we abandoned Skylab and dumped NASA with something useless. I’m only 10 minutes in, but this isn’t going well so far.
The music is great in this
Where is part 2 ?
I'm 64..... Saw it all from the beginning. It's been toooo long.
Interesting to know about"Back to the moon"
Where's part 2
I went to all of the first 3 Artemis scrubbed launches and I told my wife I’m not going to the 4th launch and they had a night launch lol. But went to see Starship last week and experience my first rocket launch.
