Story of the space shuttle: inside the space shuttle
This Discovery Channel documentary goes behind the scenes with NASA's Space Shuttle programme. Narrated by actor Gary Sinise, the documentary takes a look at the surprisingly low-tech insides of a Space Shuttle. However, while the average car may contain more computing power, the Shuttle is the product of immense engineering creativity and requires the coordinated efforts of a huge number of people to launch and maintain.
