I remember watching that sucker take off as an 8 year old. Not important, but very cool.

1. It's fake.
You can see Stanley Kubrick accidentally walk into the shot at 4:56.

3. Actually the footage is real, but it isn't from NASA
The Soviets installed a spy camera on the launch pad...The KGB also had to time-travel into the future so they could bring back the technology to record the launch in HD...

Of course this is all common knowledge around the innernettes...:hippie:
