2005 Space Shuttle Mission STS-114 - Comprehensive Video (Over Seven Hours), Images, and Documents from the Historic Flight of Discovery (DVD-ROM and Four DVD-VIDEO Discs)

This set of five discs, one DVD-ROM and four DVD-VIDEO, provides the most comprehensive text and video coverage available on the historic Shuttle return-to-flight mission of STS-114 by Discovery and her crew in July-August 2005. It combines two of our products, which sell separately for about $70, at a substantial savings of about $20! FOUR DVD-VIDEO DISCS: This spectacular set of four DVD-Video discs presents over seven hours of high-quality, digital-source video of the historic mission of STS-114 in July-August 2005. These discs are designed to be played in regular DVD players (USA Region 1 format) and can also be viewed by most computer DVD drives. There are extensive views of the launch, including the final moments of the countdown, numerous KSC launch pad camera replays, the WB-57 chase aircraft videos, and tapes from both SRBs from launch to ocean splashdown. Mission highlights include station work and the gap filler removal EVA by Mission Specialist Robinson. DVD-ROM IMAGE AND DOCUMENT DISC: * Over three and a half gigabytes of material * Over 500 digital images of preflight activities, crew training, and in-flight electronic still camera views of mission events. These images are available as high-resolution image files, and also are presented in our exclusive Image Gallery in PDF format. This gallery reproduces the photos in a computerized "photo album" suitable for quick full-screen browsing! This format was designed to mimic the look and "feel" of a real book; there is no need to laboriously import specific images into a slow-loading program for viewing and printing. As you flip through the images in the Gallery, you can magnify photographs for better viewing. * Return-to-flight and mission-specific technical documentation, including full reproductions of the presentation charts at the Flight Readiness Review (FRR), ET foam loss and tile gap filler problem charts and presentations, press kit, Mission Control status reports, and in-flight messages to the crew, including “execute packages” and technical updates. There are several hundred documents presented in PDF format. * Over 250 mission-related video clips and 30 audio clips. The DVD-ROM is packed with over 12,000 pages reproduced using Adobe Acrobat PDF software - allowing direct viewing on Windows and Macintosh systems. Our news and educational CD-ROM and DVD-ROM discs are privately compiled collections of official public domain U.S. government files and documents - they are not produced by the federal government. They are designed to provide a convenient user-friendly reference work, utilizing the benefits of the Adobe Acrobat format to uniformly present thousands of pages that can be rapidly reviewed, searched by finding specific words, or printed without untold hours of tedious research and downloading. Vast archives of important public domain government information that might otherwise remain inaccessible are available for instant review no matter where you are. This book-on-a-disc format makes a great reference work and educational tool. There is no other reference that is as fast, convenient, comprehensive, thoroughly researched, and portable - everything you need to know, from the federal sources you trust.
