Top Gear is a popular and funny British Tv Prog mainly about cars, but this Shuttle launch is amazing.

Bri'ish humor delivering serious message - Space Exploration can be dangerous.

I LOVE the liftoff - really pro stuff!
I LOVE the SRB SEP - great timing with minimal loss of trajectory.
I LOVE the "landing" too - that explosion was spectacular. Now I see why nobody really wanted to man the RR Shuttle.

It's interesting to understand what went wrong - or was this intentional and the ET was never supposed to separate?

It was supposed to separate. Listen closely to hammond at 8:42 ("It's not coming off") and May seconds later ("Separate! Separate!").

Why it didn't separate? No idea.

Of course I noticed this, but considering the on-going tongue-in-cheek of the entire flic, I'm not sure about that anymore <g>

A servo failed to unlatch or the servo did unlatch but the force were too extreme, or an explosive bolt didn't explode Wink

As a comedy suggestion, could we have a 'working' version in SSM2007/2010 Cheesy
