So, I was in Costco today, looking at the DVD bins, and I found this one jumbo pack of 10 NASA DVDs (US$19.99) that includes a 5-disc "History of the Space Shuttle".
I didn't buy it, but reading the blurb on the back of the box (which I can't find online), I had to go "Uhhhh, NO!" a couple of times, because they mention Columbia's first flight as being in February, 1981, and the tragedy of "Challenger, as it burned up just 16 minutes from landing on February 1, 2003"!
Also, there were a few descriptive sentences that didn't make a whole lot of sense, like one where... awww hell, I'm gonna have to go back and buy the damn thing and transcribe it for you guys!
Well, here's a trailer for it...

Man, I feel so old, because I remember those days of STS-1 like they were yesterday! Really!
