No audio of the liftoff, of course.

Not as far as I know! I got it from one of my former clients.

That's cool stuff, I really miss the old Saturn launches, they lit the sky up quite a lot more than the space shuttles do. I remember very vividly the night launch of Apollo 17 in '72 which was the last moon mission and I believe the first night launch of the Saturn program, we were just across the river from the space center in Titusville and the launch was absolutely incredible.

Thanks Ken!

To continue the theme, I saw this video a while ago but I didn't share it. Witness Neil deGrasse Tyson -- arguably the coolest astrophysicist alive -- unbox a model of the Saturn V rocket that was given to him as a surprise gift.

I love how he turns it into an educational experience. Neil is awesome.

This ought to be good if there's audio of the launches.

Or, one of these.
