The Big Space Shuttle - Children - VHS

Filmed on location at Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Mission Control in Houston, and the Very Large Array telescopes in the New Mexico desert, this video follows astronaut Susan Still, the crew of the Columbia, and the many technicians and engineers as they prepare for a space shuttle research mission in outer space. Watch the astronauts train in the world's largest indoor swimming pool and experience zero gravity for just a few seconds when their training flight plummets downward at over 30,000 miles per hour. There's even a tour of NASA's Space Camp for kids. Spectacular launch and outer space footage highlights this exciting trip. Young adventurers will not be disappointed in this Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award-winning video. ~ Heather M. Fierst, Rovi
