I usually learn the best stuff watching and listening to videos like this, packed with wisdom throughout

Of course, I agree that things shouldn't be rushed to the point of failing safeguards. But... I viewed an Orion capsule mockup at the KSC Visitor Center in 2011, over a dozen years ago. Since then, there have been two Artemis flights, both unmanned, one to the Moon. And apparently, the first manned flight is several years down the road. I don't want a disaster, but I am 70 years old. I recall the first Mercury flights, and naturally, I remember Apollo. I want to live long enough to see our return to the Moon. The Shuttle kept us in LEO for three decades. I should say that the lack of funding from Congress did. It was long overdue for retirement when it finally was. It always had too much of its mass to orbit as vehicle mass (Starship is worse in this regard) and never lived up to its supposed purpose of cost-effectiveness and fast turnaround. SRBs for crewed flight are a horrifying standard, and, sadly, they are being used for our newest projects. I witnessed the last three Apollo and a couple of Shuttle launches from the vicinity. All of the Apollo launches were awesome, but the night launch of Apollo XVII was especially indelibly burned into my memory. These guys talk as though there's a hurricane in every location in Florida every other Thursday. Comically, some residents talk that way, too. It ain't true, folks. 48:50 I thought hand off to Houston came when the vehicle cleared the tower. Let's go, Artemis III! I don't carry a "phone in my pocket". But, my dual 12-core hyperthreaded Xeon processor desktop with a couple thousand GPU cores will run circles around any smartphone to date.

I remember as a child looking up at the full moon and my sister saying to me it’s hard to believe people are walking around up there and I thought it’s amazing alright How could Nixen cancel such a wonderful program ? And fund a war that was un winnable

I remember Columbia. Challenger I was 3. When Discovery retired I lost hope. We need to be exploring. It’s the final frontier.

I was also at Stapleton (the old Denver International airport) when it came in for the night. Not the life changing event like for Jeremy, but it was an awesome sight. Dad was an Air Force/ANG/Airline pilot flying C-130's out of Cheyenne with the Wyoming ANG and B-727's out of Denver with United Airlines so I knew about airplanes. This beast was like nothing I ever imagined. There were no scheduled 747's flying into Denver then, so that was a sight in itself, but the shuttle on its back was like Star Trek.

GRATIDÃO. OBRIGADO. EMOCIONADO.

Taking us through history is very great, I am enjoying the Voice of America narration.

Skylab had a lot more than is mentioned here. It was an observatory and had a spectroscope and hundreds of experiments. Also, the docking mechanism wasn’t Gemini - it was Apollo… The Shuttle’s main problem was it was an air force project. Designed by them. They abandoned it and left NASA with a “space truck” design and the air force hardly used it and went back to Titan rockets for satellite launches. A space station wasn’t part of the plan for the shuttle. That was only planned 23 years after the first shuttle launch - in September 1993…. So after Apollo - we abandoned Skylab and dumped NASA with something useless. I’m only 10 minutes in, but this isn’t going well so far.

OMG, the music....goodbye

This was great, can’t wait for Part 2 baby…😎👍

Where is part 2 ?

Bravo.

SLS is like building a car from NOS (new old stock) parts. They put stickers over the STS badges.

Being over 65 years old, it makes it very difficult to hear what is being said due to the LOUD music...

I went to all of the first 3 Artemis scrubbed launches and I told my wife I’m not going to the 4th launch and they had a night launch lol. But went to see Starship last week and experience my first rocket launch.

I'm 64..... Saw it all from the beginning. It's been toooo long.

Impressive video!!!

I watched the whole Apollo program in grammar school. We had a G.I.Joe model of the Gemini capsule. He fit right in there, spacesuit and all. We're still at stage 1 of the Sphinx Riddle. We were incredibly lucky. I think space will always be dangerous, just as it always has...

The worst thing about living on the moon..... there's no wal mart.

The music is great in this

This thing ain't gon never liftoff with a crew didn't they roll the schedule back another year ?

Where's part 2

Geez. BARELY a mention of how much the 3 Skylab missions contributed to learning how to live in space. Were your researchers born in the 1980s?

Sempre me deu uma tristeza Presidente Kenedy nao ver os astronautas na Lua

Why not use the manta space craft the mil has had for some time , it goes there and other places .

Its about time we are going back!

Did the lunar module jettison from the moon all the way to the earth? i had wondered about that then seen it in another video, or i thought i seen it

Horse hockey. You are dumping those beautiful motors in the ocean.

Wow I really enjoyed this.

The last time we went to the moon they told us we don't belong here don't come back so if they attack us it's our fault 🤔

Interesting to know about"Back to the moon"

NASA can have their astronauts stay at an Elon hotel when they get to the Moon.

Have the O rings been improved??

Space mining and colonization exploration must be the top topic of humanity

18:20 I think it is important to contrast the "willingness to wait" to achieve a balanced pressure to comitt to launch, with the (perhaps) monetarily funded (not entirely by accident) and detached attitude those whom may actually benefit by keeping their status as well paid "professionals", by a procrastination that abounds with words and phrases like "I (am or am not) comfortable...[read this last word in italics]. YES we would assume that NASA knows this in spades. Human being is difficult.

Is there a Part 2?

Thanks

could the Space Shuttle ignite its RS 25s and climb to orbit?

why does it say apollo space program above the title

Uansett jeg dom betaler så ja e jer me fan .

8:08 Wow, unfortunate name

Starship, New Glenn, Neutron is the future. Reusable rockets ftw

So, so, much SLS apologism in this video you'd think you were watching a Boeing commercial. They praise everything that's wrong with the SLS (friction stir welding, 5 segment SRB's, fully expended vehicle and engines, liquid hydrogen ISP) basically everything oldspace that leads to delays, astronomical launch costs and rockets that fly so rarely and infrequently that every flight might as well be a test flight. I'm looking forward to Part 2 where they throw even more shade on Starship and Starship HLS while praising SLS Block 1B and the EUS as something revolutionary.

Starship is going to change everything

Who remembers seeing the first launch of the shuttle? I was sure the main booster was all white at one time.

Imagine all we humans can achieve if we put wars aside and combine all that technology into exploring space we will be real real ahead of what we know already peace on Earth 🌎🌍.

Firmament

somehow what I hear alot that they are hanging in the past... not re-thinking how it could be done in the future... but just making Apollo ver.2.0.... not a SLS Artemis... and a pile of what feels like excuses... lets think big and new... not rushed but safely but do not use it for slowness nor a budget increase

Brilliant achievement, but this rocket does not have the stylish look of the Saturn V rocket

When President Obama cancelled the Constellation program saying NASA needed to work with private industry to broaden their technology aspirations and goals, I lamented that decision and often said the country needs a national space program with manned flights. Given NASA's aerospace manufacturing assets at its disposal, private industry would never be a significant player in NASA's future or the nation's space future. Now, my view has spun 180 degrees. This colossal boondoggle of a rocket program with a launch schedule and goal forecast spreading decades will never do anything but waste the taxpayer's money and be a jobs program for the aerospace industry. SpaceX puts NASA to shame. They will be ready to land on the moon with super heavy and Starship years ahead of this program. The embarrassment ahead for NASA as SpaceX moves closer to going without them is going to put this stuck in the 1970s bureaucracy into the scrapheap of history.

Lets hope the non gravity on our super conductor moon trapped between the two energies of the Earth's double torus fermie cells magnetosphere reacts differently this time 😅

Why not build a electric space shuttle?? 4 electric turbine motors with big lithium batteries.. hell even add a few electric turbos to it

Back to the moon?

43:40 Hydrogen was developed as a rocket fuel propellant. lol wtf hydrogen is an element. XD

This rocket and the space shuttle are the reason why I don't like hydrogen powered cars.

Du vet du som sitter nå og hacker min tellefon. Du hvem utbetaler deres lønn?

Back to the moon? At what price? For what purpose?

It only took 30 years to orbit the moon again.. smh

This whole documentary is trying to make the SLS look good when all they did was recopy a capsule, build a computer that controlled the craft and put it on top of a shuttle platform with no cargo capacity at all whatsoever. Seems like about two steps back to me.

To me, the rocket has a 'Russian' appearance with the two side boosters. Compared to NASA's success in capturing the attention of America, NASA is failing with Artemis and returning to the Moon. To NASA, the Moon is a step stone and not a destination. Arrogance.

Too many rivers in the way of the crawler? PUT IT ON THE RIVER! Dam it and float it! ffs

Is there wind in the moon's atmosphere? What a coverup. Looks like Arizona at night.😂

Buck Rogers

I am really doubtful about Artemis. Not enough money, choppy schedule, old hardware. It would suffice to read the plan in details of Apollo and compare it to the current one to realize they are at best lagging beyond. They don’t have a lander yet and they don’t have a vector to reach llo with the weight needed by an average moon mission. The elliptical orbit theory are willing to adopt is not “better then Apollo” it is just what they can achieve with that brick of SLS: lack of dv results in a two weeks orbit around the moon. It means that any emergency on the surface will result in a tragedy because the impossibility to launch a dock on Orion. Oh, and there is also that detail about the launches, 15 launches per single mission is a huge hole the program, because of reliability, security, and any practical common sense. Boh

Wow. 56 minutes of trying to justify the SLS's existence.

Foolish waste considering SpaceX cost.

SpaceX is the only way we’re getting back there…

Sorry, but it just seems like the same old idea, i.e. tanks and nozzles that are thrown away after every launch, and a capsule.

Yip watching this. Earth & water is where i feel compatible. Ain't gotta worry about me going to space on a rocket. That might go boom.

Like button moon we'll be back soon

It will be a long time until we get back to the moon. SpaceX is not going to work for Artemis. The rockets they are designing are not fit for purpose.

There is no reusability in the SLS! This is awfull!

nasa. Meaningless. SpaceX is the real space transport!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Artemis is a flawed program.

my having got home it’s back to the moan 😮

Nice presentation drama, but new, old hardware. Lead, follow or get out of the way of progress. We have had enough of money sucking stagnation in space exploration.

Es geht um Patientieren bitteschön.........................! Schneller Bundesraten darüber Informiert bitteschön...........! Es ist nicht gratis.....

For those who don’t know sls was mandated by congress to keep the shuttle companies employed. It’s totally outdated and insanely expensive. Starship will replace this easily.

Was denken Sie sich gerade...........? Wenn ich es um Gefährliche Neurologie Anfallen Heilen schneller können werden.........?

CGI is far more advanced now. They won’t need Kubrick

The ending was super dramatic for NASA using 1970s tech

Faf

🎵 For yourrrrr eyesss onlyyyyy so much to see, so much to see that's.. 🎵

Such a waste of money. 4 BILLION or More dollars per launch just into the ocean

2

Such a cold war era goal.

The big lie

They’re making it so complicated this time around. Just keep it simple. Why take one vehicle there, transfer to another, go down, come up, transfer again? Just take HLS fully and cut your losses on the other vehicle. China is keeping their plan simple, and they’re actually hitting their benchmarks and dates. We are delaying.

Is this thing already obsolete with starship now proven to be able to get to orbit?

They never went to the moon its was a holywood movie ye saw.

"60 years is not a long time from a technology development perspective"...I disagree with that statement very much. in 60 years we went from airplanes not existing to airlines. Everything is hard when one first starts. The point is to keep going and getting better till its not difficult.

That guy was right when he said, going to the moon was our pyramids. No one knows how either was done.

What is hilariously sad it that America took Kennedys goal and with nothing less than determination and miracles we not only invented the needed technology but made it ALL come together in less than a decade.. Also BEFORE the U.S.S.R. Fast forward to George Bush Jr. Presidency (not sure if the program was spoke about before Bush Jr. but I'm positive he spoke of Artemis and Americas return to the moon... Which has been EMBARRASSINGLY long ago. Still not there. Now in my useless opinion is this.... NASA is historically always slow and behind schedule. No surprise.. however the main culprit 9:54 here is Boeing.. Boeing won the contract to build the capsule . Boeing and our government has a long history of being over budget and behind schedule . Congress approves the money everytime. That's Boeing's business model I think. If Boeing got shut down when they asked for more money. They wouldnt be the company we know today. At this rate Space X will go to Mars before Artemis gets to the moon..

if we cant go to the moon today we cant go tomorrow space travel is impossible .we need to continue funding nasa and praise the polticians.ΑΩ

So sad to see NASA fail. So much time wasted on diversity which we know delivers shit outcomes. Best person for the role always wins.

I'm still waiting till we go to mars ... jokers

なんで今になって月なんだよ～。怪し過ぎるよ。NASAは火星の方に一生懸命だが月の方が簡単だろうに。怪し過ぎるよ。

Back in the day I was to all 14 lunches including redstone there's nothing nothing I mean nothing is amazing I seen that 400 ft candle throw itself against the Deep Purple cloth background and 5,000 ft you could see Neil and Buzz waving out the window all I can think of was please close the window please close that window 15 in which they were going in the windows open we create such a draft and all the very hard labor massive Ground School went into it I pointed out the window I think it was bus seem to understand what I was saying and quickly hop back down with the window secured behind him and the rest is history
