If you like this video take a look at this one, it's a similar cut of HD footage from STS-128 with Space Shuttle Discovery ruclips.net/video/qOWbt52-VpQ/видео.html
Okay
What is the reason space shuttle discontinued?????very sad...

It may have been overpriced, dangerous and otherwise flawed but it is one of the coolest thing ever build by humanity.
The fact that it was riddled with compromises, shortcuts and designed around a ridiculous set of starting criteria only makes the shuttle even more amazing. No matter what happens in the future, we will never see its like again.
It’s a lie like everything else NASA put out!
Conspiracy music Guru on RUclips sings the truth?
@@jetplane5295 bro
@@jetplane5295 What about this landing was fake? How did the craft get sooted? Not all things from NASA are fake, even if some things could be. It's what has been true for all things of all ages: "The truth is somewhere in the middle".
So I would assume that if the Shuttle never existed we would have landed on Mars by now.
I was able to see the Endeavor fly over my apartment on a 747 before being put in the museum. It was jaw dropping! Such a great ship!
Endeavor is pictured in Google Earth in the Vehicle Assembly building, north/western shop bay, at the Kennedy Space center undergoing some TLC.
They have the nose section opened up and dust proofed with plastic sheeting. I believe it is being restored to primo condition. Atlantis is there too.
The first and last shuttles to fly . Jan 2012 dated pics. Probably before you saw it being delivered.
One of my customers was on holiday in the US and was staying in San Francisco. One morning, he heard a loud noise in the sky getting louder and stepped outside to see Endeavour fly past on its 747. When he returned home, he came to see me at work to tell me about it, because he knew that I have a bit of an interest in this sort of thing.
How neat that he saw it. I was very pleased for him.
I was in Disneyland when the 747 transporting Endeavor to the museum flew over. I was in the Tomorrowland part of of the park by Space mountain. Couldn't ask for a more fitting spot to see it happen
@@MarsFKA I Saw it fly by the golden gate bridge it was the coolest thing ever. There are some great photos
@@scotttild Excellent!
I have a photo of Endeavour that I took on its last orbit. I was watching on NASA TV when it made its de-orbit burn west of Australia. Its orbit then took it south of Australia and New Zealand, so I went outside and set up the camera. The sky was clear and when Endeavour came into view I started taking long exposures. I took a last one as the Orbiter moved further to the east and was about to release the shutter when I saw the Space Station a couple of hundred kilometres behind Endeavour. I kept the shutter open for another ten seconds and got two
spacecraft for the price of one. Rather pleased with that photo.
Half an hour later, Endeavour was on the ground at the KSC and I remembered the last time I did the same trip, it took me seventeen hours in two aircraft.
Less next time, now that Air New Zealand has a direct Auckland/Houston connection.
I'm just amazed all the engineering behind this stuff is amazing.
You should watch a documentry on the Saturn 5 Rocket. It is one of the greatest inventions ever made by humans.
Rocket science is actually pretty simple, flamey end down, pointy end up
@@nukedukem6 👀
@@nukedukem6 Well, you're not wrong.
I’m amazed that they attach these shuttles to the top of 747’s to transport.
I was fortunate enough to see one of the shuttles (can't remember which one) launched in 1983. I was just absolutely amazed at the shuttles. Such a beautiful thing and got to see only one land.
"Endeavour" you have been a loooong way...Thanks so much for sharing your safe return with us
That is probably the smoothest Shuttle landing I have ever see. Holding the nose wheel off for a extended time and gently setting it down was the cherry on top.
The nose wheel hold off was a routine procedure for all shuttle landings.
Correct 100% Yep - computers and machines are very routine - they have to be - otherwise it ends in tears n misery especially in this case-
@@sailorman8668 : It's standard procedure for all aircraft. You don't just slam the nosewheel (or the tailwheel, in the convential landing gear layout) into the ground...
Butter landing
I'm impressed by the person panning/tracking this on landing. So precise!!! Well done!!
I get chills from the B747 as much as I do with the shuttle. This is amazing footage.
I am still amazed that humans can build machines like this.
oh man, same...
except it was a failure
When werner von braun was born, people light up their houses with gaslamps or candles and transported themselves and goods with horse and wagon. So from candels and horses
to the moon and back in just one human lifetime.
And now 50 years later since the first man on the moon, an average smartphone has millions of times more power than the computers of the entire apollo missions all together.
And when i was a kid in the 70's, i never would believe that there would be such thing as a 2x2 inch micro toy drone would be possible in my lifetime, because my matchbox cars
were that size, so impossible to fit motors, batteries, controllers etc etc. And only 25 years ago i bought a combat flightsim that was insane big for that time, a whopping 100mb!
And it took an entire day to install it on my very first PC. Now we have gigabytes and before this decade is over petabytes wil be common. The world never moved so fast forewards
as in the past century.
I am also amazed at this
Slickpickle The space shuttle program was an absolute failure. Please try to prove me wrong.
At 19:30 I believe that is showing one of the 3 mounting brackets used to mount the shuttle to the 747. Thank You for posting this amazing footage of a fantastic aircraft and crew
Well yes. Though i would say the primary purpose is rather to connect the main fuel Tank where the fuel is also feed across
@@MigotRen Yes, that is where the EFT connects and feeds fuel through. When it disconnects that door would close and cover up with the heat tiles.
The space shuttle and the jumbo jet. Two amazing machines doing the best that they were built for!
The wingtip vortices when she lands!!! Absolutely incredible. I miss the shuttle, the most beautiful flying machine ever built. Absolutely gorgeous footage here, that HD cam was a real joy to behold.
This is by far the best shuttle video I have ever seen.
One of the best video ever about the space shuttle !! really
Its humbling to be in the sight of such an amazing masterpiece of a machine.
All these procedures for the Spaceships are just sooo Amazing! JumboJet+Shuttle - Those 2 together at the end... Mind-Blowing! Loved All Space Shuttles!!!
So, for the gazillion people who were on the support crews for all of the STS missions, congratulations for an incredible and flawless efforts that you put in, day in and day out! You all helped to make important history!!! Thank you for allowing us regular every day people to see this! I was especially impressed at the beautiful landing that was made, and I highly admired the pilot and crew in executing such a beautiful "grease it in" landing on such a huge, (difficult to maneuver) machine. It was the delicious "Icing" on the incredible "Cake"; and most important, you all made it home alive and safe! What a historical event!
@James Muecke How many lives have been saved because of smoke detectors? Smoke detectors developed from technology first invented by NASA for use in human space flight. That is just one thing that has improved human life that might not have been developed when it was if it wasn't for the existence of NASA.
And in addition to the massive space dividends from inventions like the smoke detector, there is all the money spent by NASA employees on things like housing, food, clothing, cars, entertainment, et cetera . . . in and around Houston and Cape Canaveral and other cities with NASA facilities.
And there there is the scientific knowledge that helps us understand our climate and our planet, and also know when solar flares from the Sun will impact the Earth causing issues with wireless telecommunications in particular and electronics in general or when a comet or meteor is passing near by (and how near).
Oh and if you like Google Maps in Satellite view, those photos come from satellites sent up by NASA. Same for improved weather forecasting brought to us by satellites put in to orbit by NASA.
@James Muecke Science has real value for humanity. From consumer products derived from NASA inventions, like life-saving smoke detectors, to improved weather forecasting due to NASA-launched weather satellites, we Americans have all benefited from NASA.
@Hazard Hawk I believe he was intentionally using hyperbole. You, though I think, are using insolence..
Neil Sheldon, my dad and I have the same color circle like yours!
Absolutely
You guys are the best - we love this
9:40 Awesome. This is the best footage of the shuttle landing that I've yet to find on the internet. Fabulous footage.
Just magnificent.....thanks to NASA for making these videos available to the public.
That was an incredibly beautiful landing..wow
What amazing footages!!! I've since Colombias first flight in 1981 been watching space shuttles falling like bricks from 100,000 feets at crazy speeds, making these s-curves and landing so elegant - and of course spot on the second ETA! What an effort!
But what then happends have I never seen before! Thx for a great compilation.
Thank you. Take a look at the other videos (links at the description) for more :)
TindDK, my dad and I have the same color circle like yours!
Definitely one of the smoothest landings i have seen of the space shuttle the way the nose hangs in the air then down unreal cheers from the uk
That must be such a relief when they roll to a stop
Gracias por el documental me tomé todo el tiempo solo para ver el vídeo gracias desde el salvador
This is the best collection of shuttle landing footage I've ever seen.
Glad you liked it! Take a look at this playlist, it's all the shuttle related videos in our channel :) ruclips.net/p/PLAqZ0jsH2nEJCwaTyw8JmMZ07PQGrcV4t
Probably the best HD footage in the history of the shuttles
I find it more amazing how a jetliner can fly with the shuttle on it's back.
Stronk
math + brute strength
@Blob B but it may not take off/land with 250 people in at the same time.
This is the most incredible shuttle footage I’ve ever seen!!!
You are amazed very easily, remember Hollywood movies aren't real.
You clearly haven't seen a femboy in thigh highs
Superb. Lacking the words to describe my appreciation.
Nothing ever again like the beauty of the space shuttle. America great. 🇺🇸
yes i loved when it blew up and killed a teacher
Expensive white elephant. The whole programme was a waste of money with the use of this craft.
Not only amazing those who designed/built it but equally amazing is the pilot who landed it back on earth !
The pilot actually only follows computer's guidance, idk why they didn't make that thing just land itself. I'm replying to 2yrs old comment, I know.
It was really neat to see the shuttles come in and land like this. It's sad to see them gone. I doubt whatever they come up with in the future will be so unique.
At least it won’t be as dangerous and costly anymore
I never get tired of watching these marvels the human men has achieved.
They become legends
@Hazard Hawk get a life kid they are poor because they don't know how to earn money these dudes who made shuttle had studied hard to make this so go, get a life kid.
And women
@Hazard Hawk everyone does what is better for them.
@Hazard Hawk it may be bad for others but better for them, this is how business works
36:20 Beautiful shot! I want to see more airplanes take off from the view of those military planes.
That 747 is amazing. Can't think of a more iconic aircraft.
a380.
@@TheBoysTopSecretisOrganization A380 is cool but doesn’t nearly have the reputation the 747 does
The humor at 38:53.. I love it. But anyway, this was most definitely the best collection of footage of one of the best machines we humans ever created. Yes, indeed, that is a lot of hardware. And it's all the result from a bygone era where we FINALLY decided to all come together to create something magical. I hope we, as humans ( not Companies or well-endowed entities ) can come together again and create like this. Also, let us all rejoice those that made this program happen, and never forget those that gave EVERYTHING for it.
Amazing all separation went without a hitch...very spectacular.
Total perfection
Leaving earth in roaring thunder, coming back in a swoosh. What a machine 👍
The technological achievements we've witnessed in our lifetime are beyond belief. It's hard to even imagine what the next hundred years will bring.
Yeah, but planes, commercial ones, are still falling off and failing.
How proud they must be feeling. Congratulations to the team & NASA & ISS
Wow! The best compilation of Space Shuttle landing, etc. Thank you!
Take a look at the other two videos on the description, they're similar videos from two other missions :)
Awesome footage of 747 transporting shuttle from the chase plane, incredible view
What I can’t get my head around, apart from the obvious difference in size between the two vehicles, is how the smaller one can travel into space where the 747 can’t
what an amazing craft. just spectacular
Fantastic air crafts landing i have ever seen before this. Thankful.
stunning footage, love the double SBs
the best landing i ever seen

So do I Hard to use controls like airplane!
Totally amazing 🛰🚀 thankyou so much for video
Brilliant footage ❤❤
Hola Mech, buenas noches.
Que buena recopilación nos regala tu video. Cuando vi al Taxi Espacial por primera vez montado sobre el fuselaje del 747, pense que lo elevaría hasta cierta altura y desde ahí despegaria. Muchas gracias Mech por registrarlo todo y compartirlo con todos nosotros. Muy buen trabajo. Sigan adelante. Gracias.
such a beautiful sight!
When I worked in Palmdale Ca. for Rockwell on the B1-B project we would hear the sonic booms when they came home.
it's wild how the footage is so clear and even wilder that it slows down and steers by yawing like like a snowboarder.
This is my favorite shuttle video out of all the thousands I've watched. The segment @10:00 to @11:00 shows just how fast the shuttle is moving.
take a look at the other two videos (links at description) they are similar from two other STS missions :)
Amazing!
Love this Vedeo, thankyou NASA, from the UK.

OUTSTANDING and Beautiful photography! I’m so glad that this exists, just Awesome,ALL of it! They used up some runway...wonder how the 747 feels with the shuttle on top....I can’t imagine!
I read awhile back that the 747 shifts quite a bit during a space shuttle ferry....I guess because of the stabilizers and everything constantly adjusting for the heavy ass payload. I read it described as a rumbling or vibrating sensation. Must feel kinda weird, even though the pilots are pros and they're used to it. It's amazing seeing humans fly these massive machines 🙏✈
Drydens commendable job.... Admirable
It's pretty cool that the shuttle glides down to land in perfect spot...amazing scientist people of Nasa
Humanity is able to achieve breakthroughs because of its ability to do things together
It's not just one man
It's an outcome of creative minds collectively working together
19:30 The 3 mountin brackets in the amazing backets.
I only saw the shuttle fly once & I didn't even see it really. I was active USAF at work at Travis AFB in northern California back in the mid 90's and the base speaker came on and said the shuttle would be flying overhead on it's way to land at Edwards. We looked up and saw a streak zip across the sky. The shuttle carrier 747, or at least one of them cause I don't know how many there were, is at U.S. Air Force Base Plant 42 in Palmdale CA close to SR71-Blackbird Park, parked right by the fence alongside the road. Amazing piece of history seeing it even now...
Is fantastic, the human race for the space is honestly marvelous, little but amazing
Amazing sight the shuttle on the back of the adapted Jumbo (747), amazing pieces of technology and a beautiful sight of American technology. and space tech.
@@Freimopp777 its not an antonov. antonov has 3 engines on each side and a much larger landing gear among other features; and the shuttle is the US's, not buran (the words "united states" kinda give it away lol).
it looks like a modified 747, but i can't be 100% sure. (edit: it is! here's the link to it, specially built for transporting the shuttle: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttle_Carrier_Aircraft)
Buran and Energya were amazing pieces of engineering, and i wish we would have got to see them in action. I must recommend Curious Droid's video on the subject (as well as Mustard's channel).

*_Queen of the Skies_*
What I can’t get my head around is, apart from the difference in size between the two vehicles but also how a vehicle smaller than a plane can go into space but a passenger plane can’t
@@hollymackenzie9923 Because it has to be rocket powered, a jet or piston engine will not have enough power or oxygen to burn in space, nor the oxygen going into space, a passenger aircraft would not have oxygen on board, nor would it withstand the pressures coming back from space.
Why does the Virgin Space Plane get there, I hear you ask? Well it doesn't, only part of it get there, even then it is not properly into space, close, but not quite. Then it comes back using a different method, but as it is not fully into deep space, it does not come back so fast as to generate all the heat one would do entering from space. However, one day they might manage to do what Branson's team are thinking, it is just a matter of time.
Look at the reusable rocket boosters that can now return to earth by controlled flight, to be used again, 20 years ago it would not have been thought possible.
There's something charming about the space shuttle. All my childhood i loved space magazines and dreamed of being an astronaut. i wish one day that i can get on the space shuttle for 5 min
等嘛!
Cuando el ser humano se lo propone..puede construir cosas maravillosas como el transbordador...a pesar de los accidentes que han costado vidas..aun siguen adelante..
Y me encanto el video..sin musica u otros audios asi se disfruta mucho mejor
Felicidades a la NASA y a todos los que son parte de tan increible trabajo
It will NEVER cease to Amaze me, when these. Brave Men and Women travel into Space, overcome the many various challenges, as they explore, learn and grow in understanding of the vastness and complexities of Outer Space with this incredible Spacecraft and equipment that they use! Just Amazing!!!
what a beautiful machine
É uma máquina incrível!
De uma tecnologia tão avançada que faz a gente se perguntar: como o ser humano foi capaz de produzir algo tão magnífico?
É realmente um verdadeiro prodígio da engenhosidade humana.
США и СССР это две страны которые сумели создать подобные машины. Действительно это чудо инжинерной мысли. СССР к стати сумел отправить и приземлить свой челнок в беполётном, автоматическом режиме. Умерла страна и умер этот проект.
what a great landing for being in space for so long too.
Okay thanks again for your time and effort into the world
Good good good good good

An amazing technological journey which will only get better and better
But nothing will ever look as cool as the shuttle
In that Space Shuttle landing looking at the greatness of America right there
