You are a failer

Samael I’m not saying a pilot’s job is easy, I’m saying it’s routine. You don’t applaud when you arrive at your destination by car, do you? It’s not always easy to drive, and there are far more fatal hazards on the road than in the air. Driving a car is routine, flying a plane is routine (there are literally thousands of planes in the air all around the world right now), landing a space shuttle from 200 miles above the surface of the earth is science. Science that didn’t happen everyday, and is literally a hit or miss. If you miss your exit on the highway, get off at the next exit and turn around. If you’re coming in for a landing but the wind is a little too strong, go around and try another runway. If the space shuttle landing wasn’t executed perfectly, and missed the mark by even a fraction of a percent, there were no second chances.

no if you are czech. we applaus every fucking time. for every fucking reason for whoever fucking ride the plane.

@@gvardiecky9507 Have you just learned a new word?

But the "Pilot" does not land the shuttle any longer. It landed by itself. The ONLY interaction with the controls is to lower the landing gear at a certain time. And if the pilot does not execute on time the system will lower them anyway. A person has not flown the shuttle to landing in a long time.

​@@stuartgray5877 You're wrong in saying the pilot/commander didn't fly the shuttle to landing. Almost all of the shuttle's approaches and landing were done manually. Also, the Space Shuttle program is ended, so no one has been flying it for quite some time, manually or otherwise.

'gracefully'

*_K I N K S H A M E_*

*Actually being able to reenter the atmosphere at Mach 25 half way around the world to a pinpoint landing at KSC* *is a remarkable feat of engineering.*

Every inch of its path has already been pre determined and mission control is watching everything so carefully I think it would be near impossible to fuck up the landing minus a mechanical failure

Perfectly put! Beautiful machine.

That's why the shuttle was a mistake.

Well, you're not wrong

NASA engineers described it exactly like that (and, occassionaly, compared its aerodynamic capabilities to those of pliers).

They train the pilots to fly that thing by using a gulfstream with the gear down, and engines in reverse

Tucker that space shuttle is a minivan.

Concorde looked similar when it landed; it’s a delta-wing thing.

all planes do that, its caused by the lift produced by the wings

Those are the vortices formed by the end of the wingtip of all fixed wing aircraft.

@@whyers4782 not all, it’s mainly fighters or delta wing equipped airplanes. Its literally the vortices off the wings creating those mini tornadoes and since the gear is so close to the wingtips it’s a lot more visible

It's not a person and if it was it would be a man. You need balls to be able to withstand the forces it does.

@@icculus oh ok

@@icculus I believe it's like 200 to 300 mph just from sheer gravity and aerodynamics.

@@rudexbruiser2604 Yes I know. The shuttle comes in around 250 mph which is about 100 mph faster than a typical commercial jet.

My late father Carl J. Brunswick worked for Rockwell International at the Santa Susana Pass location on the border of Los Angeles county and Ventura county from the 1950s until he retired in 1985 or 1986. As a child growing up I never knew exactly what my father’s job was at Rockwell International. The Cold War with the USSR was still going on at the time. My father and everyone who worked with him were required to sign documents that they would never discuss what they did upon penalty of death, outside of assigned locations. It was only a few years before his death in 2010 that he was able to tell his family some of the things he worked on. He was known as a troubleshooter. That meant whenever something went wrong it was his team that were to figure out what went wrong and fix it so it didn’t (hopefully) happen again. During his years at Rockwell International he worked on a number of different projects, from helping to build and test the engines that were on the rockets that went to the moon, to helping build the computer system that was on the first space shuttle. I’m sure my father would be happy that other people are still working together to help everyone on earth have a better understanding of space and our future in it.

Yu g

it's more like three and a half minutes, really

Well once the shuttle is in Earth's atmosphere, it's a really heavy glider with bad aerodynamics and very minimal aerodynamic lift.

Yea lol

raterus For an old glider pilot, that isn’t especially amazing...

@@YDDES Considering the circumstances it is. There’s quite a difference between a glider flight and a flight above the atmosphere for several months. And to add to that this glider has aerodynamics so terrible it was referred to as the “flying brick” with its stubby little wings and blunt nose. Also considering this thing is rivaling the size of a 737, and landing at speeds higher than fighter jets, that’s pretty amazing.

@@YDDES it has big boy wings, and they had to land FROM SPACE, survive reentry and make sure they wont miss or overshoot. now that is way more impressive.

@@Spaceguy-nineteensixtynine Yes, and That’s Why it landed automatically.

@@YDDES it doesn’t land automatically. The shuttle was landed 100% manually. The only thing the computer did was put information on the HUD. The shuttle’s computer couldn’t even hold a modern photo file, it most definitely didn’t have an autoland feature which still isn’t perfect even today.

Eddie Congdon nasa pilots? Don’t actually go hands on either wise they would blow up due to human error🥴🥴

That's the sound of one of the many APU's (auxiliary power unit) that power various systems on the shuttle. It might be a glider and not using rocket or jet engines when it's returning to earth, but that doesn't mean it doesn't still have various other systems working and making noises.

Answering genuine questions is fun but yes, I shake my head at the the rest of it.

Eddie Congdon You don’t have to be at NASA to shake your head at the youtube commenters. Real common sense is enough.

@@jrockett73 Genuine question I have: Are there any big advantages to the spaceplane design? I'm obviously not an expert but it seems kind of dumb to me to use all that power to carry a spaceplane when you could just use it to haul whatever cargo you need.

Well, the last 30 years wasn't just about hauling cargo. The shuttle did many things to advance space flight wether you agree with the program or not. In order to build the ISS there had to be a platform so to speak. The shuttle provided that as it hauled the equipment, was a work shop to put it together and a safe area for the amount of people it hauled. It was also a platform to retrieve, fix and release satellites and prove new technologies. It was a testing ground for EVA's in space along with robotics. It was the beginning of new, reusable and lighter materials such as carbon fiber, insulation tiles. Fly by wire control systems was introduced by the program. Because it wasn't economically a success , some people call it a failure. Sometimes you have to do things wether its cost effective or not. My opinion only.

Its where they get their ideas

👍

Incrível como isso não explodiu

How? 2020 space flight is extremely safe and powerful.

@@veritateseducational217 It's backward

It would be a catastrophic event, simply put. I read somewhere that there is a chance they might survive if the cargo bay was empty, only a chance though, since the shuttle is not designed to belly land.

There’s no option for pulling up and circling around for a second landing attempt, so once they deorbit that’s it - they’re landing one way or the other. Fortunately the landing gear never failed in 133 landings!

I think the reason they drop the gear late is because of the drag that they can cause. For instance in many commercial airlines, pilots tend to pull the gear as soon as possible because of the large amounts of drag that they cause. I don’t know a hundred percent why the gear of the shuttle are dropped late. however, I think this the most likely reason

@@ronanbambrick9825 Watch STS-3. The gear was down and locked only a couple of seconds prior to contact.

Right, there would be nothing they could do except to hold on. The reason why none of the landing gear failed was because they weren't powered by hydraulics or electricity, they were simply dropped, and gravity/wind resistance pulled them into place where they locked.
