Atlantis STS-132 Launch Audio II
Coincidentally a day after the launch of Discovery, STS-133, I found this recording of Atlantis, STS-132 from the NASA Tweetup I attended in May. Unlike the other audio I posted from my netbook left in the Twent, this is from a Sansa Clip recorder I had on me. I haven't edited the the audio except some dead air towards the beginning. If you want to go right to the money shot, jump to about 7:30 in. Watch your speaker/earphone volume.
Speaking of raw, there's some cussing - that's what happens when adults get jacked up on adrenaline. The banter is almost as good as the launch, in my opinion.
The other guy prominent in the recording is my buddy Richard Hay, WinObs on Twitter.
Enjoy.
