[video] The sound of space and how to get it right

[nothke]

I always wondered how does rocket flight ACTUALLY sound, and I just stumbled upon this amazing video of a sounding rocket with a mic on it. As you can hear the sound just diminishes as it leaves atmosphere BUT you can still hear sound cause it's transmitted over the rocket's body. Amazing to hear the pipey, metalic clunks of the rocket, without any air around it present. Just awesome.

Yes, I've seen that video with the shuttle onboard camera. Very cool.

But this... CLANG!

Wew that stabilizing spin at the start made me dizzy! But epic sounds yeah

Only way the ending could have been more Kerbal is if we'd heard the recovery worker say, "Hey, guys, looks like the camera's still workin'!"

[KASASpace]

That's a familiar Kerbal thing to do!

Epic as that is, I don't recommend it to anyone with epilepsy. Seriously. The beginning of the video hurt.
