STS-133′s Launch as Seen from an Airliner


This is a stunning video. An airline passenger, Neil Monday, on an aircraft that had just taken off from Orlando, Florida, captured this video with his iPhone out the window of the launch of STS-133 on the late afternoon of Thursday, February 24, 2011. This is the last flight of the orbiter “Discovery” prior to its retirement. Check out the video below as Discovery departs for the International Space Station.
