This was awesome. Watching the Challenger blow up as a kid broke my childhood dreams of being an astronaut, and I'm wondering if TFH feels the same. I'd love to see him do a short film, provided he can include more than "Watch me make these spaceships look real!"
It was more of the idea that today's astronauts were the bus drivers to low earth orbit for the cable repairmen of the stars, and to top it off, the buses were rickety explodey pieces of crap.
What about the one with the astronauts leaping overboard to avoid the flames? Or the extra-tragic one of the downed shuttle sticking out of the Statue of Liberty?
Would have been cool if he focused on the Shuttle's aborted launch scenarios like to Return to Launch Site abort instead this highly improbable gloomy shit.
