Can't stop the wind

The comment section is just as bad as it used to be when everyone was using CB's to talk on......a bunch of arm chair cb Rambo's.... the....only thing that changed is now every one can't breathe... great video on the rocket 👍👍👍👍

I don't even know how to push back close to the ground. I have reason to doubt your education problems.

this episode is gold. at 14:22 was one of the several times i had to 'stop 'rewind and hear that agai n!!!. serious mad ideas from science / inventors playing. strewth, cheers. great show. i do have a rocket engine topic you probably can explain real quick . Rocket engines Push, How is the push connected the structure? and then maintain vectoring?

Kind of related, many many years ago (1970's) the Gemini 12 re-entry capsule was on display at MOTAT (Museum of Transport and Technology) in Auckland New Zealand, the capsule door was open but had a perspex cover over it and they had a walkway so you could climb up and look inside, I got to go see it a few times I can remember as a young boy being absolutely amazed by it, it's a highlight in my childhood memories. I believe it was returned to the US a long time ago now.

History repeats itself, Japan can learn again from its neighbors like the Tang Dynasty era🤪

That has to be the meanest looking glider i have ever seen

Nasa , wasting money for lives

“ like a glove”

2 different landings, top video is Edwards afb, not sure where the bottom video is from but it's not Edwards.

Well it was made in China. That probably explains the problem.

So these reactors will make great target practice for earths meteor space defense. Goal of redirecting orbit into the sun

So where's the asteroid then 🤔🤔

Hah! Look at the Sun in a different light! 😜

Since space craft are mainly constructed mainly of aluminum, we could build giant permanent magnet tunnels in orbit that the space craft would fly through to slow it down? 🤓😅

Was it possible to use the shuttles thrusters/ rocket engines to give it a small boost during the glide phase?

even if its a "near miss" .... it'll do MASSIVE damage !!

Probably didn’t hit the ground hard at all. Because of the rocket a the lil roll isn’t anything I’m sure there strapped into some seating pretty well. For the case of that. I would see a bigger issue if it just stuck the landing and had no roll at all. Would mean that rocket didn’t to much of squat. Seems like rocket fired kept it from sticking earth and was enough juice to spin it on its side. An other than the quick stop when the rocket fired. The rest of that probley wasn’t anything. Couldn’t have been any worse than them big enclosed life boats on ships or oil rigs that you get in. A fully strap in with a 4 point seat belt system or whatever. Than slid off the platform off into the water from a height. Wouldn’t doubt aside from a full harness there’s something to keep their head from whiplashing also. But I doubt that was much of anything

It's an awesome sound, especially during the Apollo launches at Cape Canaveral.

Was wondering have you theyard of October ends ? they's new song is fire! You should react to it

Sick wheelie dude

Why when I put my mouse over the clip it shows flat but the big clip shows a curve ....weird alright.- I dont know if everyone see the same THING

I still have old technical papers, where the MDAC company actually made pacemaker radioactive ionic batteries, for Pacemakers, repeat pacemakers. We looked at these, in lieu of RTGs on several black projects. Unfortunately, even though they had 8+years of electrical power, the adjacent electronics were somewhat sketchy, and unreliable. RTGs were 110% reliable, for decades, and did not need anything to keep them functional. The degradation due to decay, was usually accommodated via a truly simplistic upconverter which only had three active semiconductors. This does reduce the available power in the long term, but allows digital electronics to operate at their rated voltages, over some smaller duty cycle. If you give me a 500Watt RTG, I can design a reliable power delivery system, which will last for more than 100 years. Since we already did this, for practical purposes, several times over...

Where's our next shuttle? Come on gov

This is said out if pure curiosity. Why couldn't you use a nuclear reactor to power an ion thruster if you're limited by the solar panels?

Beautiful speed brake 😍

The Bonneville Salt Flats would also be a good option.

The dust plume these landers generate on the lunar surface can be dangerous and will sandblast any nearby equipment. With low gravity and no atmosphere, ejected dust and rocks will be sent flying vast distances at supersonic speeds. It is a problem. Starship's higher positioned landing thrusters are a clear benefit.

The eagle has landed

Where did they land

Hey Scott, please don't use ai enhanced video, they make me trippy even if I am not drunk 😂

Scott, can you do a video on the gamut of g-forces experienced by all types of astronauts? I want to know the forces they undertake during launch, orbital manoeuvres, and descent. I also want to know the duration of those forces, perhaps a graph showing values over time. I also want to know these values for each type of rocket since manned space flight began, for all countries with manned space flight programs. In addition, maybe you could include the g-forces undertaken by dogs and chimps that also went to space. And perhaps you could tell us about the g-forces used for cargo-only flights - are they any different? And maybe on another subject, do cargo flights have breathable air on board, CO2 scrubbers, or even an oxygen supply?

They had some advanced science back then.

😇 Bless our astronauts!

😢 it takes a lot to make me cry ,but sometimes you can't help it 😢

Fantastic game..so addictive back then..fully strengthened with beams And homing missiles..even the mother ship kitted with triple beam cannons.

Rumor has it that Jules Verne drew up the plans to this one.

Ouch, spine injury

No they can plunge into the sun or ram a planet or a moon .

Mercury is pretty heavy. They wouldnt probably need much, but how long would turbine last....

i wouldn't like to be near one when repeated detonations caused something final

Don't forget that the Apollo landers also carried nuclear generators, which might still be operating. Are they? And is there still a usable TV camera up there?

“. . . still fighting to save their spacecraft . . .”?!? Undoubtedly fighting to save their lives. R.I.P. Columbia Crew. 💔🙏🏻

Looks primitive compared to the shit elon drew up on a napkin

Like China is going to say they were hurt 😂

Space elevator - solved Just need to solve the carbon nanotube problem

FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE 假假假假假假假假假假假假假

shuttle must of been going 100 mph at the time it hit the bird

Imagine what humanity could achieve if the energy and resources wasted on wars and conflicts would be spent on improving earth and exploring space 🤔
