No dramatization, no useless suspense, no clickbaits. Amazing job. Your video shows all the research and hardwork you put in there for numb nuts like me. Now i believe in the sanity of the world, that it got over a million views.
I remember when The History Channel would have programs like this. I miss those days.
My father's company, D.B. Milliken, built a lot of those 400 fps cameras used throughout the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and beyond programs. In the early '70s the company was sold to Teledyne. Many of the Milliken cameras had specially shape housings to cram in the tight spaces of the command capsules. You can see the elongated oval logo sticker in several of the shots in this video. It was always a fun evening when my dad would bring home footage of testing procedures! I certainly remember the films of Col. John Stapp as he was strapped into the rocket sled to study high-G effects on humans.
This is one of the most interesting and informative videos that I’ve watched on UA-cam. The level of detail presented and the fluent, articulate delivery is superior to some of the Nat Geo or Discovery shows.
Love the videos. My uncle was chief photographic engineer at Kennedy and worked there from the late 50’s through the 90’s and was responsible for positioning and setup of the launchpad cameras for all the launches. He even got to meet von Braun on several occasions to discuss camera positions. He told some great stories about cameras being rattled to pieces inside their protective cases. Few people understood how difficult it was for them to get many of those shots, especially the big Saturns later on in the program.
I had no idea that launches were so closely and extensively filmed. This was an extremely interesting and informative video. Thank you for bringing it to UA-cam.
Not saying this because I'm a sucker for aerospace.. but this is probably one of my favourite videos of this channel!! Stunning footage, thank you for creating this and thanks to all of the people involved in the content over the decades!
I RESPECT YOUR DEDICATION AND YOUR COMMITMENT...
my favorite by faaaarrr is the falcon heavy boosters landing in unison. i know it didnt take super specialized gear to film but what an amazing launch to be alive for.
I'm pretty sure that guy filming the v2 had balls too big to run with.
I took a job last year operating a Contraves mount on the launch complex at Vandenberg Air Force Base. We still perform launch tracking with similar procedures and increasingly more sophisticated camera systems. It’s wonderful to see the capabilities of our fellow mobile optics technicians receiving some accolades. Thank you.
I'm sorry to hear they removed your video. Thanks for sharing it with us again 😊
You distill so many videos into an understandable compilation. Fantastic research. Thank you

Another absolutely wonderful piece. Thank you.
My favorite footage: the first stage separation on the Saturn 5. First of all it just looks so stunning and violent, it's hard to believe such a massive essentially hollow structure could withstand the forces at play.
Still watching again, this is so well done! 👍
Its fun to watch a Perfectly Edited educational Video professionally delivered
