At the beginning of the show he mentioned that the space shuttle has flown 130 times, Nasa's STS 130 was flown in 2010, so he couldn't have recorded this before 2010 and therefore it's more like the definition of 2010

​​@@terranrepublic7023 nobody accused Hammond of being up to date on style, and OP is right, the way he's dressed is extremely 2005. Just because the show was released between 2008-11, that means nothing in relation to Hammond's apparel choices. He is British, after all. A lot of Brits still dress like WWII hasn't happened yet.

I saw the shuttle take off in person when John Glenn returned to space. They are not in any way downplaying the power of the engine. You could feel it hit you like a wall when the shockwave reaches the viewing stands, and its louder than anything you have ever heard in your entire life. It can't be described how unreal it is.

You have shared incredibly inaccessible sites and information about different systems with us. The inspirations that may have come from unthinkable places and technologies been amazing. Ofcourse you have produced a few other documentaries on these lines. To date I had seen only one. But now I am going to look for each one of those and will watch. Sharing knowledge and information with the world is one of the most noblest of things to do. God bless you and all those who endeavour to do this.

it's a controlled constant explosion in the direction you want to move towards, you could have learned it yourself by throwing a grenade at a stationary object and watch that stationary object move... basically just a missile that was sent into space in war time... THEN when peace took over, the civilians thought "hey, we could really do something meaningful for humanity, sure military would get our research too but he who keeps the lights on gets the spoils" - most times that has been beneficial to everyone but very critical for flight and environmental safety for the military.... such as memory foam and understanding aerodynamics to a minute level, aerodynamics wouldn't be used by you and me but for the military it means the difference between a jet making it from New York to Paris or not, memory foam is one of those eureka that benefits everybody from young to old and in most fields... including office chairs. Designs have assisted private ventures with skipping the harsh "learn by the hand of humility" and more about "learn from others"... Shame that governments don't go for a global front and pool money together to actually get a global space program together that is under the international law that no country has complete access, but all countries have benefits... could reduce the costs to $1B per country and get us quite far

Fun fact: Originally, the Space Shuttle had a two-stage fully-reusable winged flyback design, (some of which could do all the TAOS shuttle could) but those were too expensive for NASA's shoestring budget. Later, there were proposals for Evolved Shuttle involving liquid fuel boosters, wingtip fins and an ejectable crew deck, but NASA couldn't afford those either. #FundNASA

The space shuttle was a great improvement to our space program. It brought new materieals and concepts to use for future space craft like Space X. I spent 12 years in the USAF as an aircraft mechanic jets 4 or more engines and I was a crew chief on the E-3A. I found one thing lacking in each mid flight of the shuttle. In the USAF before takeoff and after landing the pilot and crew walked around the airplane and looked it over. We had the Shuttle where they had the means to look over every inch of the space craft outsides without a space walk. Yet it was not done. There is a word for that and I can't think of it. I almost got it . and I know it now. COMPLACENCY. Taking things for granted. Had they examined the craft after connecting to the ISS they would have saw damage and those lives would have been saved. We need to learn by this or the loss of those crews mean nothing to us.Inspect before and after flights is all it takes.

I saw a program where they knew about some damage to the tiles (by replaying video of the launch where they saw the ice strike the wing), but did not take it further because there was nothing they could do to repair it, nor rescue the crew. Sad but true.

@@kvltman782 the amount of work needed to turn each shuttle around ready for its next mission meant that it was pretty close to being a complete refurbishment. Unforseen at the start of the shuttle program and part of the reason for it's astronomical (no pun intended) cost.
