Must-hear: Space Shuttle Launch Like You’ve Never Heard Before

Epic Soundrecording, sound design

Be sure to check out this amazing video from the space shuttle launch – fascinating!
 


 

Michael Interbartolo, a staffer on the Space Shuttle Program, has posted this video of a shuttle launch, with the cameras attached to the Solid Rocket Booster (SRB). Apparently this video will be an bonus feature on the upcoming DVD/Blu-ray release of Ascent: Commemorating Shuttle. The big deal here is the sound — there was some assistance from Skywalker Sound, the company that provides the sound for George Lucas’s movies. Watch (and listen) for the splash into the Atlantic in this video.
