Amazing launch yesterday

I want a VR360 or VR180 video of Starman (it certainly would be great promotional material for the Oculus Go).  Did they film with stereo cameras?



The for me one of the greatest moments in history was Apollo 8 when humans went beyond low earth orbit and went around the moon in 1968.

No human or animal has gone beyond low earth orbit since 1972.  I think a lot of the technology was built using analog computers using e.g. the slide rule (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule).

    Combining Titans of Space with a similar journey into the atom would be a great start

    There was this fantastic Documentary voiced by David Tenant Hidden Life of a Cell, its basically over an hour of spectacular groundbreaking CGI .. This begs to be remade into VR.

    Titans of Space is pretty good.

    D'oh! Didn't notice Page 2, so I see it's already been mentioned.

    Titans was one of my first ever exps after the awesome original riftroaster and it made me so sick but it also really excited to what VR was going to be

    Although i could never imagine it would be getting this good, aka Lone Echo or Elite

    I'd like to know why NASA keeps talking about trying to build spaceships that can go beyond low earth orbit. We already went to the Moon in a spaceship, which is beyond low earth orbit, so just copy that spaceship..



    'course they have...    :*
