STS-51F ABORT TO ORBIT
This video is a reconstruction of the only Space Shuttle launch abort in it's 30 year history, using the NASA TV video alongside simulator and graphics.
Coverage begins at T-20 minutes in the countdown. Film taken on the day shows the inside of the launch control center and the Kennedy Space Center, the crowds waiting for the launch and crew breakfast/walkout/orbiter ingress.
A stylised countdown checklist is used to the zero point in the count.
Multi angles of launch are used along with MOCR footage of the flight director/Capcom/booster officer and simulator/graphics to show different stages of the launch and powered flight stage.
After Main Engine Cut Off, TV coverage continues, with simulator and photos from the mission. The coverage ends before the OMS 2 burn.
