A stunning aerial view of a shuttle launch AND free drinks :



Watching one shuttle after another launch from the same angle, or angles, decade in and out on TV gets a bit meh. Yeah, yeah, another space shuttle flight, let me know if it explodes.

It takes a view like this to remind you how far the human race has come since early experiments in powered flight only one century ago.

That, in the above video, that is a vehicle built by humans carrying other humans & cargo into space, to a fucking space station, peopled by men and women from an alliance of nations.

That's pretty damn awesome. don't you think?

Anyway, as you were.
