Nice to see the actual video from the astronauts perspective.

When I was a boy watching launches in the 1960s, they had this "animation" on the TV which imagined what the astronauts were seeing. It was almost cartoonish.

I must take a moment and mention that I once worked for NASA.

Not that anyone might care but I feel bravado as I watch the ship take off for space.

It was called NASA STIF-”Science and Technical Information Facility”, located in Fort Meade, Maryland. That name has since been changed, I forget to what.

It was really a huge storage facility of space souvenirs. The most famous one was the first space suit worn by the first man on the moon.

It was in a glass cage but one was allowed to go in and put arms in sleeves. Employees could bring their kids in, which I did. They loved it.

Just some thoughts and memories.

I was terrible in that job.
