When Virtual Reality was set to become a reality, a sound medium to match the 3D visuals was required, and Binaural appears (behind you!) to be perfectly suited for the job and is being adopted.
That's it.
Few clips including the classic, Virtual Haircut. Just discovered this was created by Hugo Zuccarelli, creator of Holophonics. Got some mention in the Hi-Fi mags in the late '70s. Not really sure how it differs from Binaural. Think he died a few years ago.
The Shuttle launches aren't actually Binaural, but they do stand out a bit on headphones:

I remember the haircut. That's spookily realistic.

I remember Zucarelli Labs. Don't know much about the process, but Pink Floyd's The Final Cut does have something about the atmospherics that's different from other albums.

When I was at JVC I built a number of binaural mics, we were marketing the Bi-Phonic processors at the time. I remember standing at the end of the runway at Heathrow, with a polystyrene wig stand with exaggerated ears, recording Concorde taking off. The sense of it gaining height was amazing. The systems used some really high quality JVC studio mics and these were dissected so the electronics were in the neck and the capsules were in the ears. One of these ended up being used by the Flying Disc record label for a lot of their binaural live recordings. Later on when PZM mics came along, I found that two of these mounted on opposite sides of a pizza box, with stips of card behind them to form the ears, worked as well, if not better.
