Cycling Explained

// April 4th, 2012 // No Comments » // Cycling, Funny Stuff, Video

In a series of daily post, it looks like I’m sharing nothing videos. Sorry, but these are all relevant to me and my life and interests. They’re also quick and easy to post.

This one is all about cycling and cyclists. Funny, but almost entirely true.

“Riding the Booster” Never Sounded Better

// March 19th, 2012 // No Comments » // Space Stuff & NASA, Video

Even with the shuttle being retired for over a half a year, we’re still getting cool media.

Check the video after the jump for an audio and video journey of one of the solid rocket boosters launches, gets separated from the shuttle orbiter, and then descends and parachutes into the ocean.

It’s a compilation of footage from STS-117 (Atlantis) and STS-127 (Endeavour). Very cool.

Just heard this parody of the Apple iPhone 4S/Siri commercial when I was listening to the latest episode of This Week in Tech on the drive into work. Too funny.

Space Shuttle: The Final Flight

// December 1st, 2011 // No Comments » // Space Stuff & NASA, Video

NASA TV’s YouTube channel added this 17 minute video yesterday, and it’s a pretty cool historical account of our now retired space shuttle program, along with a little voice over by William Shatner, insight from astrophysicist Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson and a soundtrack by Rush.

It’s all so amazing, and here’s to the next chapter of space exploration.

Congrats to everyone involved in successfully launching the Atlas 5 rocket with its large precious cargo sitting atop!
