Footage from a camera on a Space Shuttle solid rocket booster from liftoff through descent, with audio enhanced by Skywalker Sound from the original camera microphones. The sound is real, not foley.
HN recommends it for its raw, mostly natural audio and for conveying the speeds and violence of a shuttle launch and booster descent.

I immediately had to re-watch this pretty awesome video after reading the article: ▶ this video It goes from liftoff to space and back to earth in a handful of minutes, and the enhanced (but real) audio is pretty creepy.
There's deceleration involved as well. Here's a very nice video of the shuttle boosters on their way down to give you an idea of the velocities involved. ▶ this video An enormous amount of inertia to overcome so 30% doesn't sound so unlikely.
This video of a booster rocket has excellent, mostly-natural sound: ▶ this video It came to mind due to the airborne / hostile environment combination...
