My dad use to take me to see space shuttle launches. I have fond memories of sitting on his shoulders and the rockets warming my face. The launches were spectacular to witness. Dad would get as excited as anyone there on liftoff. 🚀

awesome description.

@@wasidanatsali6374 That's really a cool memory to share with us, thank-you.

Any reuse of parts?

Whats funny is the lady announcer that comes on after the laugh must not even know the spacecraft that much she's say 5 Core Engines (but there's only 4). LOL

@@tamalodg196 it clipped in at the end of her saying RS-25 engines.

i am sure he jumped off the chair .3-2-1 boosters in ignition!!!!🚀🚀

Shuttle also had that habit of getting going in a hurry, and SLS has more in common with that than the Saturn V.

Bob Crippen has been quoted saying that the SRB's igniting up felt like a carrier cat shot. The shuttle stack was already going over 100 mph after clearing the tower. The later revisions of the shuttle SRB's were rated at around 3,300,000 lbs of thrust EACH (the Saturn V's F1's generated 1.5 million lbs each). This means the shuttle stack generated slightly more thrust than the Saturn V at launch. With the shuttle stack weighing 4.4 million lbs at liftoff and the Saturn V weighing 6.5 million, it's easy to see why the shuttle got going in a big hurry (in comparison). Another fun fact: about 58% (well over half) of the shuttle stack's weight at liftoff consisted of the two SRB's... which made them VERY dense suckers! Any way you slice it, those SRB's are MONSTERS.

I went back and watched the old footage of Apollo 17 launching and you are absolutely right. Saturn practically lumbered its way up past the launch tower then slowly gained speed while Artemis just felt so sleek and nimble. Absolutely wild how much progress we’ve made in launch technology over the past 50 years

yeah the sls legit was made from retired shuttle parts i think@@vicroc4

I am aware I am replying to an old comment, but I'd imagine this is because the SLS has/had Solid Rocket Boosters, something the Saturn V lacked. ...the 2nd reply details the exact same thing.

It has successfully burned many dollars.

As a person who's father worked for Boeing, I've been drawing Mercury/Redstone/Atlass launches, Gemini/Titan II, Apollo, Skylab, Soyes/ Apollo link up/ I.S.S.

I remember where I was when Apollo 11 was about to launch; I was in junior high school and scared stiff that something would go wrong and how it would affect me; I could barely watch it. You'll note after watching the SV launches that it initially rises slowly, whereas the Artemis, using technology from the Space Shuttle, takes off like a jackrabbit. There are videos here about Wernher von Braun, the German rocket scientist, how the United States came to acquire him, and many technical descriptions of the SV, which was not a flawless rocket, but its main stage was a work of brute-force engineering and had got men into space, however Apollo 13 had defective wiring in the Service Module, of which a movie and numerous articles and books have been written.

It was a great time!

My grandpa watched Apollo 11 on tv and now he helped build Artemis 1 and took me to watch it my grandpa watched humans step on the moon for the first time (also met ppl who walked on it) and now i watched us get back to the moon its crazy

It was suppose to happen in August this is their 5th attempt to launch it

@@kevinlordross 3rd

Yea me too! I knew it was on the pad but didn't get a chance to check when it was to launch, so clean forgot about it!

At least this one was uncrewed. Just some hardware. Would still be a big bummer, though.

I'm far more excited about SpaceX and their achievements while NASA and Artimus entered cost overruns and delays. Being born in 1949, I was very aware of the incredible achievements made trying and finally succeeding to get a rocket into space, followed by astronauts. Then we went to the moon and that was exciting. Loved the Space Shuttle flights, the Hubbel Telescope, etc. SpaceX is another wonder, doing great things others could not do. Now we get excited getting Artimus launched into space, FINALLY? NASA will never catch up with SpaceX. It might as well be a public relations agency.

@@bondgabebond4907 I genuinely don't get it, how is NASA "catching up" with SpaceX? NASA's rocket is on the way to the moon right now, SpaceX's is in parts strewn across various craters in the desert while the owner drops $44 billion on Twitter.

@@Isosyth Oh, please. Sending a capsule to the moon is old stuff. What I am saying is that it took NASA decades, cost overruns, delays, etc. just to get this rocket off the ground. Werner von Braun in the 1960s did this with great fanfare. Today, I am ashamed that these NASA twits took so long to do it right. Look at the history of the Artimus and it is a sad story. Elon's rockets could have easily done that but it is busy launching almost daily while it took years for NASA to get "one" rocket off. I was there when we sent our first man into orbit and men to the moon. This is small stuff.

@@bondgabebond4907 that's apples to oranges. Nasa and space x are completely different. Nasa has a huge budget limitation where as space x doesn't really. Plus space x is a contractor, not a space agency.

Same! And I finished high school in 1988!

Beginning with the launch of Alan Shepard, I have not missed a single launch of Astronauts or tests of their vehicles! This is a momentous occasion and I wish the mission great success so that we can finally land a person on the moon again!

This is amazing. Were finally going back!

Hello from the US! On the flip side, I work with JPL and I'm excited for the NISAR launch and to start getting data back from that mission. To me, India has the most impressive space program today, constantly soaring past very difficult milestones -- and I expect the collaboration with NASA will only strengthen in the future.

I heard from a friend that took a chance they would actually have a launch, He Said it took him just over 1 hour to get out of the immediate be area due to the immense traffic there.. (he had been to a few of the later shuttle launches)

@@donismills2955 omg I don't doubt that for a second. I live one block off US1 where there are 2 parks on river that everyone goes to watch these and from what I remember I don't think I've ever seen the amount of cars except maybe when John Glenn went back on one of the shuttles. It was quite literally a cluster f**k! The launch was definitely gorgeous. But I'm SO glad that I live in few minute walk of seeing it. I saw people with the orange glow sticks directing traffic when they were arriving but it was a free for all when it came to leaving. You could hardly walk down the sidewalk, there were even people sitting in fold up chairs blocking the entrance and exits of convenience stores.

Those who believe that man landed on the moon, ask them how fast the spacecraft was flying and how they reduced that speed when they landed in a vacuum. Action and reaction?

@@mendelaskovski3996 Gravity did most of it. Earth gravity reduced the speed from 7 mi per sec to a fraction of that. Then the service module was sufficient for lunar orbit. Action also happens with gravity.

Not to mention the fact that there's no way the THOUSANDS of people involved in the project, from technicians to engineers to astronauts, would have all gone along with it.

@@DOCTOMandTHEBANDITS The difference is that NASA is owned by the People, and the development of Space Technology by NASA does not come with some single billionaire's opportunity to blackmail the American Public if there is some reason that we NEED this technology.

Do you REALLY want one of the incredibly selfish billionaires with delusions of grandeur to be able to blackmail the American People into making him King if he uses his tech to go and deal with it? Or to pledging to use ONLY his businesses for all government contracts in the future, no matter the cost? Elon Musk already tried to blackmail the US government once, regarding providing internet service to Ukraine, which would have destroyed their ability to fight the war against Russia! Do you truly think that any of the billionaires that have space flight capability would be able to resist getting a HUGE pay-out from such a "service" to the earth? And I mean a HUGE pay-out; not just a reasonable one. They are all sociopaths with delusions of grandeur, which is how they got to be billionaires in the first place, because it comes with the misuse of regular people for one's own profit. This country does not need a king, nor does the earth need an emperor. This country is one of the few that can afford to have a publicly owned space program, so we owe it the future to do so.
