Was going to say, I think everyone forgot about early SpaceX product quality.
And NASA probably does have great video of it available, it’s just the live broadcast that missed it.
- NitpickLawyer 7mo ago> I think everyone forgot about early SpaceX product quality. This was 8 years ago and is one of the greatest stuff I've seen in space launches. The footage is so epic that it even got replicated in SciFi series! ... https://youtu.be/wbSwFU6tY1c?t=1313 https://youtu.be/wbSwFU6tY1c?t=1313 This was 9 years ago, first droneship landing - https://youtu.be/7pUAydjne5M?t=1642 https://youtu.be/7pUAydjne5M?t=1642 And this is 18 years ago, their first Falcon1 launch - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bET0mRnqxQM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bET0mRnqxQM More live video from the ascent than we got on Artemis2 for sure...
- ceejayoz 7mo agoSo this illustrates my point quite well. The F1 launch doesn't follow the craft and freezes as it launches. No telemetry, fancy overlays, practiced presenters, etc. The first droneship landing and first FH flight are both long into SpaceX's evolution of how they do these videos. Today's are even slicker. Practice has made these improve dramatically, and today's SpaceX demos blow each of your examples out of the water. That's what doing a live cast every few weeks gets you.
