Columbia disaster as seen and recorded from my driveway. Space shuttle Columbia breaking up over north Texas on 2-1-03. This video along with my video camera was sent to NASA for analysis. The zoomed in portion of the video at the very beginning has created some controversy over the years. The shuttle appears to be facing the wrong direction exposing the left side to extreme pressure. You can see the heat building up as I zoomed back out and then it began to break up. This is the only video showing the shuttle moments before the break up.
