Okay, here's the deal: You surf and scan and post and view all day long. Suddenly, your eyes turn red and your hands get carpal tunnel from all that squinting and clicking! I offer you a place for you to kick back, relax, toss back a (virtual) cold one or two, and just chill. So kick off your shoes at my little rest stop along the Information Superhighway!

"Go" for SRB Separation

This week, my video pick is among the coolest I have found, to date!

This is video of a solid rocket booster (SRB) separation from STS-115, Shuttle Atlantis, September 9, 2006. The camera is mounted on the nose of the SRB itself, and it shows amazing footage of it descent back to Earth. What I find really cool is that the other SRB stays in the line-of-sight of this camera for much of the trip! Oh, and yes, the audio is the real deal, too! Enjoy!
