If you like this video take a look at this one, it's a similar cut of HD footage from STS-128 with Space Shuttle Discovery https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOWbt52-VpQ

It may have been overpriced, dangerous and otherwise flawed but it is one of the coolest thing ever build by humanity.
-
I was able to see the Endeavor fly over my apartment on a 747 before being put in the museum. It was jaw dropping! Such a great ship!
-
I'm just amazed all the engineering behind this stuff is amazing.
-
I was fortunate enough to see one of the shuttles (can't remember which one) launched in 1983. I was just absolutely amazed at the shuttles. Such a beautiful thing and got to see only one land.
-
The wingtip vortices when she lands!!! Absolutely incredible. I miss the shuttle, the most beautiful flying machine ever built. Absolutely gorgeous footage here, that HD cam was a real joy to behold.
-
I am still amazed that humans can build machines like this.
-
That is probably the smoothest Shuttle landing I have ever see. Holding the nose wheel off for a extended time and gently setting it down was the cherry on top.
-
So glad I grew up while the shuttle program was still active (I was born in '96), I remember watching them launch with my mom and her holding my hand as tightly as possible she like so many others remembers the Challenger and Columbia disasters

So, for the gazillion people who were on the support crews for all of the STS missions, congratulations for an incredible and flawless efforts that you put in, day in and day out! You all helped to make important history!!! Thank you for allowing us regular every day people to see this! I was especially impressed at the beautiful landing that was made, and I highly admired the pilot and crew in executing such a beautiful "grease it in" landing on such a huge, (difficult to maneuver) machine. It was the delicious "Icing" on the incredible "Cake"; and most important, you all made it home alive and safe! What a historical event!

At 19:30 I believe that is showing one of the 3 mounting brackets used to mount the shuttle to the 747. Thank You for posting this amazing footage of a fantastic aircraft and crew
-
The space shuttle and the jumbo jet. Two amazing machines doing the best that they were built for!
-
I get chills from the B747 as much as I do with the shuttle. This is amazing footage.
-
"Endeavour" you have been a loooong way...Thanks so much for sharing your safe return with us
-
Not only amazing those who designed/built it but equally amazing is the pilot who landed it back on earth !
-
I find it more amazing how a jetliner can fly with the shuttle on it's back.
-
Its humbling to be in the sight of such an amazing masterpiece of a machine.
-
You guys are the best - we love this
-
I never get tired of watching these marvels the human men has achieved.
-
I'm impressed by the person panning/tracking this on landing. So precise!!! Well done!!
