STS-88 Launch - Cabin Audio, AI Upscale - Endeavour - December 4, 1998 - First Shuttle ISS mission

[@CodenameE9]

Finally after all these years I found someone who has hold of that cockpit view

[@garryperkins9818]

Always wanted to see it from the cockpit view

[@Dra741]

They should have given us this footage a long time ago I get it

[@TimothyOBrien1958]

I wish we had internal launch views of Apollo Saturn V.

[@Forts103]

Wow the cabin audio really gives you an appreciation of how hard those SRBs hit when they lit up!

[@iitzfizz]

For sure, those things fire up and shake the whole stack like it's nothing. I remember one astronaut (can't remember who said it) that said once those SRB's light up the whole vehicle shakes and vibrates so much you can't read any of the instruments on the panel

[@wadewilson524]

I know they were far from perfect, but man do I miss the Space Shuttle! Awesome work as always on the video! It was a joy to watch!

[@ryancool-pq5vu]

It was NASA's fault for both disasters. The shuttle worked fine when they didn't rush everything.

[@peacethroughstrength172]

John Young helped design a great machine, any mishaps were on NASA and their failure to take advice from JY and others.

[@AverageArtz]

​@@ryancool-pq5vu That's a simplification if anything. Columbia is pretty much a done deal sure, but with Challenger it was actually private contractors that lied to NASA about the limitations in the design of the boosters. Morton Thiokol ensured NASA that the cold temperatures did not in anyway threaten the function of the joints. I guess you can fault NASA for not doing their own safety checks with the joints but that was how it was done in those days.

[@christianbaler1166]

not only you Wade🚀🛰 I'm born in 83 im growed up with this beauty running Ladys!!

[@jayrod9979]

​@@AverageArtz It was engineers at Morton Thiokal who were screaming to have the Challenger launched scrubbed as well as those who inspected the boosters after recovery. They were well aware of the correlation between temperature and the O ring erosion and Challenger was the only launch with freezing temperatures the night before launch. Obviously we all know management refused to listen.

[@seabass450]

This is bad ass!! the sound is incredible!

[@dirty364]

This has to be the best POV video I have seen! Love how you cut in different angles and different videos.

[@garyobrian3597]

I love the way the astronaut on the back right looks at there arm wrist mirror it's the little things on these space missions

[@Petefx86]

Wow! It really gets loud in there as you approach and pass Max Q. Always assumed the sound was fairly constant until SRB separation.

[@rawnukles]

I have heard astronauts talk about the raw of the wind as they approached Max Q but I didn't expect it was that loud

[@TheRokko66]

At 10:44 you can really hear the roaring sound of the air reaching peak level or Max-Q at more than 500 mph! Without throtteling the engines down at that moment the vehicle would fall apart within seconds.

[@richardsmith8790]

Go with throttle up those four words will always be so eerie

[@putnam568]

No kidding. I bet those astronauts really get nervous at that moment, thinking about Challenger

[@CoDWiiPS3Gameplay]

I've seen so many people say this. Actually, it's the exact opposite. When throttle up is called, it means the vehicle has *already passed* through MaxQ, the moment of maximum aerodynamic pressure. So hearing that call means the most dangerous part of the ascent has been already completed. It's actually the call you most WANT to hear, as the rest of the ascent becomes easier and easier.

[@ZBTEproductions]

@@CoDWiiPS3GameplayIt's eerie because it's the final words we heard from Challenger before it broke up.

[@rhonda-uq5jj]

@@CoDWiiPS3Gameplay Actually, right after saying that Challenger blew up. For those of us who saw it happen live, it will always create a tightness in the chest.

[@SpeedbirdConcordeOne]

It’s actually ‘go at throttle up’ signifying that no RTLS at that specific point

[@yourfathersspaceprogram2697]

Jeez Louise that's so sweet! Love the sound added from NASA library.

[@Ladco77]

Amazing how quiet it gets after SRB sep. You'd almost think they were coasting at the point.

[@gregengland5178]

The wind noise! WoW!

[@bobertblobert7812]

It sounds like the roar of a tornado.

[@JimDaneker]

Oh my word... I'm watching this in my professional recording studio with massive high-end speakers and an immersive screen.. the sound at 9:40 when the main engines start is otherworldly! In that one second you can hear the fuel pumps spin up, then BOOM! What I would give to see and hear an 8k version of this properly captured in IMAX!

[@Gort58]

Great work as always - thanks. As it happens, some of the best previous in-cabin coverage (from the rear) was from STS-65, which also had Bob Cabana as CDR. If you could perform your magic on that, it'd be appreciated.

[@RetroSpaceHD]

There will be some STS-65 content in the future ;-)

[@sQuEeZyMaN13]

I didn’t even know they had an onboard camera for this. Awesome video!

[@snipereliete]

What a sound as she winds up just after launch.as an aviation enthusiast this video brings me great joy.Humans have only been flying for a little over 100 years and to be able to achieve space flight is a wonder of human engunuity.

[@xxanimexnerdxxkelson]

This is cool to see up-scaled. I was lucky enough to be in Cape Canaveral in person to see this launch.

[@earth2006]

This would definitely be a situation where you absolutely not want to hear "Crunch, snap, Oh ---t oooops.

[@somebodyontheinternet8257]

New shuttle footage! Awesome! Thank you

[@franita65]

the roar during accelleration, just after liftoff is impressive!

[@DavidThomasScorbal]

Fantastic work, thank you for sharing this

[@roughridersfan]

Cool how in the crew cabin video how the sound started to die down as they climbed out of the atmosphere.

[@russellh8702]

Traveling faster than sound…

[@elfishpresleybarbiebreath1116]

Wow! The cabin audio only...it's a little terrifying up to max Q :O Cool separation sound :D

[@AluminumOxide]

Oh wow this is wonderful. I always wanted to see an enhanced video of this mission

[@basfinnis]

That looks really cool. Bouncing around a bit but bet it was fun 😜

[@kandaman304]

What an interesting view of the Space Shuttle launch from the INSIDE. It's rather strange though...weird crackling sounds of fire, and then sudden silence after SRB Separation!!!

[@stmcdowell77]

We need to see more of this...maybe SpaceX will start showing high quality in cabin audio and video of its Starship once it fully gets rolling. This was amazing to watch but mostly because of the audio.

[@wxb200]

The Space Shuttle was a beautiful piece of Engineering. Too bad it has SOOO many flaws. I can't imagine how crazy it was to see the very first shuttle lift off. I grew up with it. It just felt so normal.

[@dochlldy]

That first launch was pretty wild.I grew up watching Gemini and Apollo launches starting out slow,then building up speed.That shuttle took off like it was launched out of a cannon.Those rockets lit up,and it was gone.

[@wxb200]

@@dochlldy quite the spectacle

[@TimothyOBrien1958]

It's amazing how the vibration nulls out after SRB SEP.

[@buster105e]

wow fantastic, looks bumpier than I thought considering the crews always used to say what a smooth ride it was, its all relative though I guess

[@override7486]

When they said that? I always remember they mentioned start is rough AF. Wobbly, shaky, and vibrations throughout the vehicle. So much power from SRB, especially in delta V at the launch, won't go unnoticed... The rest of the journey with SLME seems much nicer, and more close to "flight" conditions, like the one experienced in a regular jet plane.

[@jamesfairfield3593]

Excellent video for this important and historic Space Shuttle mission.

[@Gruby7C1h]

YT algo, you did a fine job today.

[@robertoverissimodeaquino2804]

Fantastic footage. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@MarsFKA]

My wife and I made our first trip to the US to watch this launch but, after we had booked and paid for everything, NASA shifted the lunch date from July to December. So we went, anyway and had a great holiday, but we never did see a Shuttle launch - we missed out on the last launch of Discovery in 2010, as well. It was scrubbed because of a hydrogen leak and cracked struts in the External Tank interbank structure.

[@derby2510]

Powerful video. Chilling video. Profound video. I’ve never seen anything like this in my life.

[@colinashby3775]

Amazing. No music. My type of video

[@sidv4615]

woooow, i've never seen a shuttle launch from the cockpit with such an amazing resolution, your work is like magic buddy, keep up the great work. ALso how old are you? did you ever see a shuttle launch or land in person?

[@RetroSpaceHD]

AI upscale works well with SD video.

[@kandaman304]

I know, right?!?! It's rather interesting. and strange...weird sounds and vibrations, and then sudden SILENCE!!!

[@jandrews1157]

Great work on this one!

[@snipereliete]

Say what u will about America but u can't deny the brilliance of the minds that make this possible.its incredible to me to see those computers.my phone probably has more computing power than those computers shown in the cockpit.i find that amazing.

[@WhosThat2876]

But but but...... the firmament!!! 😂😂 This is great footage, and the punching through the atmosphere was an awesome sight

[@kiwidiesel]

They punched through that firmament shell like a virgin with a ripe peach😂

[@factormars4339]

10:35 to 10:45 is terrifying. These guys have big balls.

[@em3460]

Used to watch the launches from my house all the way in Deltona as a boy. Also remember the sonic boom of the landings shaking the house.

[@KuyaArbee]

SH*TTTTT and I thought V1 in an airplane was anxiety inducing enough when taking off! this is NEXT LEVEL

[@mylesdias8453]

6:57 What a stunning exterior shot that is!!!!!

[@getplaning]

I have watched a few launches. Until you see one, you just don't appreciate how FAST that thing leaves the ground and disappears.

[@ryan200520]

Other than launching the Hubble telescope, this may have been the most important mission in the history of US/ world spaceflight, leading the way to the future of manned spaceflights and the expanded exploration of the solar system/ galaxy/ universe.

[@dieter2020]

version 3 by far my favorite

[@cesarfuentes6499]

Wow Sergey krikaliev on board of the space shuttle a long Dream came trhue

[@Dra741]

Remember what Alan Bean said when he lit the Saturn V rockets and they were going to the Moon he said I never knew anything that shook that much, and it didn't fall apart, everything else that had the type of vibration that he experienced it had to fall apart, but the Saturn V rocket performed admirably

[@timkeller3907]

Man, would I love to have flown in that!.

[@jayrod9979]

I clicked because I saw Sergei Krivalev walking up. Despite the rivalry with Russia, the man is arguably the most accomplished cosmonaut and its awesome NASA gave him a chance to be an Astronaut also.

[@Linuxpunk81]

That initial comms check gave me manning the maneuvering watch vibes, doing the phone checks on the sound powered phones with control. 😂space was tight on those birds and this is coming from a former submariner. 🖖STS1 (SS)ret Evans

[@Dra741]

Thank you all of the girls from United States Alliance from South Carolina

[@thomascrator8183]

4:56 you cant hear the rocket engines anymore because they are moving faster then the sound of the rockets. Amazing

[@stephenking9271]

This is incredible & put something as a question. 1903 first flight & fast forward to the first space missions, what we have achieved here is more than incredible. Incredible utterly incredible, however imo we have slowed down we have not kept that rapid rate of development & have we gone further answer is no. We should be Engineering a new format of exploration, we should be testing our limits & look further. Propulsion is a factor but we should be going further.

You hear how gradually the wind noise decrease with the altitude towards empty space.....

Who is the NASA launch commentator at KSC back then

[@dochlldy]

Musk may have come up with the coolest landing in any space program,but I don't see anybody coming up with a launch as cool as our shuttles.Maybe we should see if Musk would like to take a shot building a new one.

[@Republic3D]

I miss the shuttles so much. Proper spaceship. There's something special about that view of 6-7? crew members sitting in each captain chair, rocking and shaking as the ship roars towards the sky. Can't wait to see how Starship is going to look inside with a full crewed version. Going to be awesome.

[@Sukuna-f2j]

Critical. That's all i can say. Everything is critical. Brave astro people.

[@koopsjunta]

I wonder if there will ever come a day when we look back at these launches, propelling humans atop chemical rockets, and think, ‘How quaint’?

[@SynthRockViking]

That's pretty intense

[@theonewhowas7709]

man thats amazing!!!!!!!!!

[@keithharris1672]

They should've done it inside the apollo capsule during Saturn V. liftoff. And Gemini too what was it like to ride the Titan.

Yes, wondered that?

I stress put watching these thinking what I would do if my back was itchy and no way of scratching it in those suits and all strapped in.

[@yotu9670]

Did they broadcast that on TV?? Never saw any of this footage so far…

[@ggsmith48906]

What is the burst of noise right about the "throttling" call? About 4:55

[@mauriziomascagna]

I think they exceeded the speed of sound at that moment.

No, max. of air dynamic pressure also called Max Q. Type it in google

Amazing, but very unnerving.

[@4uidrum]

They filmed inside the cabin on all launches... why isn't there any cabin footage of Challenger?

[@ggsmith48906]

@4uidrum, my guess is that is a local recording device. They recover the recording after the shuttle landed. That would mean the recording was lost with the destruction of Challenger and Columbia. :(

[@4uidrum]

@@ggsmith48906 could be. But typically these devices are designed to withstand such stressful events. Much like black boxes. Anyways, just curious. :) Thank you for replying.

[@ggsmith48906]

@@4uidrum I do know that some recording devices send back real time telemetry, others store it and are retrieved at recovery. I have no idea which category this falls under, but my guess is this is more of an interest recording and not a cockpit "black box".
