It’s pretty obvious that the Vehicle Assembly Building [1] wasn’t built for something as – uhm – small as the Space Shuttle :)<p>[1] <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_Assembly_Building" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_Assembly_Building</a>

Great time lapse movie. No, really great. Made my day.<p>But... It would have been even _better_ if it had used _The Blue Danube_ for background music. Especially as it was being hoisted on the crane.<p>Edit: I just tried this by finding a _Blue Danube_ movie on Youtube and playing it in the background while re-watching the movie. It should be a _crime_ not to try this. Some interesting serendipities in timing, especially involving violin solos and the cable top shot sequence.<p>I'll try _Dark Side of the Moon_ next...

Excellent video! Some music would have been a nice accompaniment. Perhaps something light and fun like Vivaldi's Spring or Copland's Rodeo.

if for you as for me the video never actually loaded (VIDEO AVAILABLE SOON), i believe this to be the same video, which loaded instantly for me:<p><a href="http://www.airspacemag.com/multimedia/videos/Go-For-Launch.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.airspacemag.com/multimedia/videos/Go-For-Launch.h...</a>

I did notice that throughout the clip a lot of guys were just standing around chatting with their hands in their pockets.
