Just because this is awesome

For all the space nerds out there and for those who enjoy amazing video that you just can't fabricate, I present to you the launch of STS-124 Discovery as seen from a tiny camera attached to one of the solid rocket boosters.  A couple of things to know about the video:

When it starts, you're looking at the side of the external fuel tank.

The fireworks get started about 1:40 or so.  Fast forward to there.

There's a blacked out part for about 30 seconds at about the 5:00 mark.

Enjoy!
