I only had the DVD version that I got from a friend and put that up, but I am trying to get the high def originals from Matt. He is busy right now working the shuttle ET tanking test for STS-133. We are just happy folks are able to see the video since Matt has been trying for a while now to get it out in the public. The outpouring of support will hopefully prompt the folks to find a way to get a high res version available for the public to purchase or at the very least download.

Submission + - Informative shuttle Ascent Video (youtube.com)

minterbartolo writes: Photographic documentation of a Space Shuttle launch plays a critical role in the engineering analysis and evaluation process that takes place during each and every mission. Motion and Still images enable Shuttle engineers to visually identify off-nominal events and conditions requiring corrective action to ensure mission safety and success. This imagery also provides highly inspirational and educational insight to those outside the NASA family.

This compilation of film and video presents the best of the best ground-based Shuttle motion imagery from STS-114, STS-117, and STS-124 missions. Rendered in the highest definition possible, this production is a tribute to the dozens of men and women of the Shuttle imaging team and the 30yrs of achievement of the Space Shuttle Program.

The video was produced by Matt Melis at the Glenn Research Center.
