| Spacemen are transmitting silent little floaty vlogs at planet Earth (also: laptops in orbit!) Posted: 05 Sep 2009 10:06 PM PDT This is not the first video of daily highlights from a NASA mission, but it just struck me now, watching today's silent vlog from STS-128, that this video really is amazing. It is amazing because it is equal parts banal and mindblowing. And all I can think is: just as our grandparents were wowed by silent black and white film, our grandchildren will one day find these little YouTubes from space quaint. May I suggest watching these while listening to Boards of Canada? Good, because I just did. Below, a still from this video which shows a neat laptop array. What an awesome workstation. I think I'll rearrange my desk like this after Labor Day. OH WAIT. Gravity, right. STS 128 HD Flight Day 7 Highlights (Periods With No Sound) (YouTube/NASA) |
