Why Is NASA Deleting Ares YouTube Videos?

Update 1: Seems more videos have been removed. Also, updated so the images work and the number of followers is visible.

Yesterday, we were looking at 3 video posted by NASA on YouTube showing several successful tests of the Ares I program. One video we liked so much we actually copied so that we could watch it ad nausiaum.

Unfortunately, by this morning, those 3 video clips were gone, deleted by NASA. Why would NASA do that? So, we put a call into NASA HQ’s PAO (public affairs officer) asking about this. We will let you know whatever we hear, or don’t.

In the meantime, finding NASA Ares and Constellation videos may get has hard as snipe hunting.
