I have seen several times, movies taken from the second stage of
an Apollo, looking aft, showing the first stage separating and drifting
off toward Earth. Usually the film continues and the viewer sees the
separation ring also being ejected and flying off.  How did NASA get
these pictures? I thought that the 2nd stage burned up upon reentry.

Also, I heard that Discovery failed an engine test on tuesday (7/10). Any
confirmation???
