Space Shuttle Launch HD 1080p

Incredible view of the shock waves coming off the SRB exhaust! Anyone know where to get full duration footage from each camera angle? RIP Microphone =D

I believe that this is the launch of Atlantis on STS 104. July 2001

Those linear aberrations in the picture that start to appear at around 1:13 and continue to about 1:35 - what are they? I have seen them on the same camera shot on several other flights, but I never could figure out what they were. I always thought that they were some sort of artifact from the camera, but they also happen to coincide with the vehicle experiencing maximum dynamic pressure. Are they actually shock waves?

shock waves from going super sonic which roughly coincides with maxQ

[@F-Man]

Sudazima Indeed. But are we actually seeing those shock waves there, or is it an aberration from the camera?

Sudazima that’s unreal how it’s distorting light as it passes. I don’t remember that being visible during day launches.
