STS-88 Launch - Cabin Audio, AI Upscale - Endeavour - December 4, 1998 - First Shuttle ISS mission

Remastered cockpit views and audio of STS-88 lift-off, the first shuttle flight to the ISS. There's extensive coverage of the crew getting into their seats and during the ascent. SRB ignition and jettison are clearly visible. Versions with different audio mixes and external angles are shown (cabin audio is from NASA sound library, timed to match STS-88 flight events).

AI upscaling (Topaz AI) was used to clean up the SD video footage. Color was corrected between the different cameras.

=========================================

STS-88 was the first Space Shuttle mission to the International Space Station (ISS). It was flown by Space Shuttle Endeavour, and took the first American module, the Unity node, to the station.

Space Shuttle Endeavour launched at 3:35:34 am EST from the Kennedy Space Center's Launch Pad 39A. STS-88 was the first shuttle flight to the International Space Station.

The seven-day mission was highlighted by the mating of the U.S.-built Unity node to the Functional Cargo Block (Zarya module) already in orbit, and three spacewalks to connect power and data transmission cables between the Node and the FGB. Zarya, built by Boeing and the Russian Space Agency, was launched on a Russian Proton rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan in November 1998.
