This is a compilation video of many different space missions, most involving humans, set to the awesome music of Interstellar. My goal was to provide a filmic music video experience for the watcher, not just showing off some of the great footage that's out there, but also taking the viewer on somewhat of a ride through space history whilst providing some historical context.
I was inspired to do this after watching Interstellar and realizing just how much awesome 'real' footage there is that many people alive today will not have seen yet. Collecting the right footage and editing the video took a few days in total, spread out over a good two months. Editing this video was a very meaningful and enjoyable experience.
It is important to note that events shown in this video are not chronological. Although I have tried to keep events ordered logically, I have often intercut footage from several different missions to make for a more telling story. That said, I've kept a somewhat linear timeline, where we start with the V2 missile, then see the X15, Mercury, Gemini, some early EVAs, Apollo, and a lot of what comes after.
Additionally included are several shots from Curiosity (and the landing from mission control perspective), some great footage from Voyager and Cassini, SpaceShip Two, SpaceX Dragon and Grasshopper test flights, a lot of footage from the ISS, Orion, Space Shuttle, Soyuz, Skylab, Hubble, and much more.
With the exception of animations of Jupiter and Saturn, which were based on real photos but have been digitally enhanced, everything is completely real. Nothing in this video is animated. Some shots have been stabilized as they came from damaged film sources.

Overall well over 100 sources have been used for this video. If you're looking for a specific shot, send me a message and I'll do what I can to point you to the original.
Some footage that I feel deserves special attention, because of the amount of effort that went into creating it includes:
Chris Hadfield's Space Oddity - [ Ссылка ]
Sander van den Berg's Outer Space - [ Ссылка ]
