Space/Science » in reply to I did see some vide shot from Tahoe

Did anyone see the video from Texas...

That appeared to show a close-up of the shuttle and then the camera panned out to a wide angle shot...

It may have been an optical illusion, but it appeared that the shuttle was way out of what one would expect the attitude to be...

It looked to me like I was watching the shuttle from behind (With the nose of the craft pointed away from the camera) but when the camera zoomed out, It looked like the shuttle was moving at 90 degrees to the left (like the left wing was the leading edge).

I wonder would the camerman have "rolled the camera" or something to make this appear to be the case, or is it possible that by the time that video was taken, that the shuttle had completely lost control and so was in a sence flying sideways just before breakup...

I'd be interested to know all your thoughts...

Sad Situation. Lets hope we can learn from it and move forward.
