  • Quite possibly the biggest departure from the content I typically upload.
    This video contains footage of the launch of Space Shuttle Discovery for the STS-51-A mission on November 8, 1984. This was the fourteenth flight of NASA's Space Shuttle program, and the first to retrieve a satellite from space.
    The reason why I said that this footage wasn't spectacular as my other footage in my first community post was because before then, I had only skimmed through the footage once, and some of it was blurry. Now that I've looked back at it, I realized I was wrong about that.

    Are there other Shuttle launch footage reels you plan to upload? If so, can you try STS-6 (first flight of Challenger in April 1983)?

    These are some good angles, but in the first several films the brightness just looks way too high. The flames look white in the sky looks pale and faded out white and you can't really see the blue in the sky. I don't know if it's the original film or the transfer, but they're just too bright and need to be adjusted.
