for the final launch of endeavor

2
00:00:29,349 --> 00:00:18,560
expanding our knowledge on expanding our

00:00:34,870 --> 00:00:32,470
endeavor space to

4
00:00:37,590 --> 00:00:34,880
pull over onto its uh back the roll

5
00:00:40,389 --> 00:00:37,600
program underway as endeavor begins a

00:00:58,709 --> 00:00:40,399
heads down position on course for a 51.6

7
00:01:02,150 --> 00:01:00,630
three engines now throttling down as

8
00:01:03,830 --> 00:01:02,160
endeavor

9
00:01:05,670 --> 00:01:03,840
passes through the area of maximum

10
00:01:08,870 --> 00:01:05,680
dynamic pressure on the vehicle in the

11
00:01:17,190 --> 00:01:13,109
approaching one minute into the flight

12
00:01:22,630 --> 00:01:19,910
roger go ahead throttle up

13
00:01:24,950 --> 00:01:22,640
endeavors three main engines now back at

14
00:01:27,350 --> 00:01:24,960
full throttle all three engines in good

15
00:01:31,510 --> 00:01:27,360
shape endeavors already

16
00:01:33,590 --> 00:01:31,520
traveling 1300 miles per hour

17
00:01:35,350 --> 00:01:33,600
at an altitude of 11 miles downrange

18
00:01:42,230 --> 00:01:35,360
from the kennedy space center now 12

19
00:01:47,749 --> 00:01:46,230
at liftoff endeavor fully fueled

20
00:01:49,990 --> 00:01:47,759
weighed four and a half million pounds

21
00:01:52,469 --> 00:01:50,000
it's already lost half that weight in

22
00:01:54,469 --> 00:01:52,479
propellant now burned that weight

23
00:01:56,870 --> 00:01:54,479
next event is burnout and separation of

24
00:01:59,190 --> 00:01:56,880
the twin solid rocket boosters

25
00:02:00,870 --> 00:01:59,200
that up coming here shortly at the

26
00:02:03,590 --> 00:02:00,880
two minute three second point those

27
00:02:11,830 --> 00:02:03,600
boosters are burning 11 000 pounds of

28
00:02:29,750 --> 00:02:15,190
and standing by for separation of the

29
00:02:33,910 --> 00:02:31,750
the onboard guidance system has done its

30
00:02:36,710 --> 00:02:33,920
job of settling out any dispersions

31
00:02:37,589 --> 00:02:36,720
introduced at burst booster separation

32
00:02:40,390 --> 00:02:37,599
the

00:02:43,670 --> 00:02:40,400

fuel cells providing electrical power to

39
00:03:05,030 --> 00:03:02,949
endeavour can reach

00:03:06,869 --> 00:03:05,040
a towel site in the event of a single

41
00:03:08,949 --> 00:03:06,879

kennedy space center in the event of an

57
00:04:23,909 --> 00:04:21,519
engine failure now but all three are

58
00:04:26,150 --> 00:04:23,919
still in good shape as are all the other

59
00:04:27,830 --> 00:04:26,160

79
00:05:21,270 --> 00:05:19,520
endeavor can reach orbit on two engines

80
00:05:23,909 --> 00:05:21,280
should one fail at this point however

81
00:05:25,189 --> 00:05:23,919
all three are still performing as

82
00:05:27,189 --> 00:05:25,199

endeavor single engine ops 3.

91
00:05:59,350 --> 00:05:57,110
that call indicates that endeavor could

92
00:06:01,749 --> 00:05:59,360
reach a transatlantic abort site on one

93
00:06:03,430 --> 00:06:01,759
engine if it lost two of the three

94
00:06:06,309 --> 00:06:03,440

00:06:30,309 --> 00:06:28,800
a safe orbit on two engines now the

fail however all three are still in good

112
00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:23,440

uh
