    Saw it here on Giz first, and it's absolutely stunning. Well worth the $17 on Amazon.

    First, I can't say enough good things about "From Earth to the Moon". I'm an aerospace engineer and the episode about the development of the lander is one of the best depictions of what being an engineer means that I have ever seen on TV. Phenomenal. The rest of the series is great too.

    Second. I have that Lego Saturn V / Apollo set up in the closet. I haven't put it together. $139??? Holy friggen crap! That is not a big kit. $139??? I'm off to check the prices on some of the other unopened kits I have!

    Is it just me or is that a baby crying aboard the space shuttle during the last few seconds of that video?

    I so want a trip to Kennedy to watch the shuttle launch. All that other stuff is OK, but shuttle launch is tops.

    See here for HD videos of launch. Great detail and awesome engine-start and booster separation. #space

    Another successful launch, such a beautiful thing.

    I do wish nasa had a site where it would have multiple camera views and you could watch one, or them all. Instead of watching 3 webcams, the one you provided, nasa's webcam, and the nasa channel on the tv.

    And hopefully they will put a camera on one of the astronaut's helmet, so we can see from their view. #space

    If anyone is planning to take a trip to Florida to watch these last shuttle flights, just remember that these planned launch dates get scrubbed.

    Like, a lot.

    So make sure you have a leeway to account for it. #space

    It is sad that the beautiful space ship is being retired soon. But, I cant wait to see (and hopefully go up on) the next vehicle that takes us to space. #space
