Author Topic: All Access VAB, PAD, OPF Tour Video (L2 Trailer) (Read 33134 times)

As requested by some non L2 members who noticed it on the L2 ticker advert - and as we did with the Camcorder re-entry videos - we've created a lower res edited version of the 50 minute All Access Video we've been very fortunate to acquire for L2 - which is where it is hosted.

So yes, this is a trailer, but it's also a free video to at least give people a sneaky look

(Thanks to Steve (Ford Mustang) for the editing skills on the trailer).

The L2 video is 1.9gb (1,900 mb), continuous filming, and high quality.

Enjoy!

Is that Columbia in the VAB?

Yes, it's her, with another stack in the other HB, and Atlantis in the OPF. Best video ever for Shuttle fans wanting to be an engineer for a day, nothing need more be said.

Sweet, thanks for the trailer. Must be an amazing place to work, both the VAB and the OPF.

Oh man that's awesome. I didn't know they had elevators, but always wondered how the crane operator got to the top.

You know, that thought had never crossed my mind either, but it's always amazing to think how big it actually is. Sure, it seems big in volume of course, but that's partially due to its height. After touring KSC, I have to say it looks much bigger in person than in pictures.

At 525 feet tall, it's the same height as our city's only "skyscraper."

I prefer when they walk into the OPF and keep the camera running. Always wanted to imagine what it's like to go to work there

Must be a totally awesome place to work

Is this full 2hrs long video still available on L2? There is no advert for it for a number of weeks now. Thank you.

Everything is still available...We don't purge/delete anything on L2.

Let me answer both questions on the other thread you copied this question to....

Thank you for this. Columbia was my favorite orbiter and seeing her in VAB processing like this brough a tear to my eye.

She was a fine ship.

Maverick · « **Reply #16 on:** 04/11/2009 02:29 am »

She was the best. I was thinking of this video just now as the VAB part of the tour takes place about this time in Endeavour's processing, as she'll of just been moved over to the ET and boosters.
