Booster's-eye view of Endeavour launch.

There's about half an hour of it, which seems a little excessive, but the first seven minutes or so follows one solid rocket booster from lift-off to splash-down. Which is kind of awesome, as long as you don't get motion-sick from video of spinny things.

Watched it all. Love how in the third & sixth segments you can see the other SRB tumbling back to Earth in the distance!

Yes, I've seen the whole thing now. I think at one point you can see the Shuttle's exhaust plume in the distance, as well, but maybe that's the other booster again. I like the part where one of the cameras goes underwater -- tough cameras, those!

I'm also looking forward to seeing the imagery from the other night's exercise of photographing the ISS from the departing Soyuz rocket. (They turned the ISS to get a good angle, which I hadn't known they could do.)

Sounds interesting. I'll be looking out for your post!

Probably next Tuesday or Wednesday -- they're hoping to release the images on Tuesday, after they get the memory cards back from Kazakhstan.
