Sorry about the lag, people! But I hope you enjoyed the video anyways! Special thanks to @Jack Bartlett and @Alessandra Velasco !!

It took me a while to realize this was KSP, and not something entirely custom made. Incredible!

Holy crap. Can't wait to see what mind-boggling things you'll be able to make in KSP2.

Your cinematics never fail to not only meet, but overcome any of my expectations

This is a great video for a KSP movie with all of the cinematics and the fact that it could've been developed way back when! If I were you I would've added in some of the moon landing sound effects to add in that 1970s spacecraft feel (like using the radio chatter for "contact light").

Soooo many things need to be figured out for any of this! The physics and mechanical nightmares of a spinning wheel at that RPM "fixed" around an accelerating/decelerating fuselage are daunting and not known. Still artificial gravity for a 2 year mission is a must. The fuel preservation from evaporation is not known. Still no fuel-stations along the way. The radiation. The isolation. Medical attention. Consumables. We have a loooooong way to go with several MAJOR breakthroughs needed along the way...

Editing and cinematography are excellent, keep up the good work!

I hope to see people land on Mars in my lifetime.

Yet another awesome video znatrix, this was amazing to watch.

It was wonderful, this video has beautiful music that fits very well, there are beautiful graphics, and a great idea, I liked that the event takes place in 1979, and spacecraft look very realistic in structure. It's so beautiful that i even placed 8:38 as a desktop picture, i also like detail with live broadcast from Mars. The whole video looked like excerpt from "For all mankind". Honestly, it would be great if you can post a link where everyone can download all of the mods you used, I would love to see another video with a landing on a more distant planet a few years later

I'm so excited!

You get a sub sir, one of the best movies I have seen that is made by 1 or 2 people!

You continue to produce my favorite KSP content - thank you for your work

I love the music. Very melodysheep like.

if Russia had made it to the moon too, this is what america would’ve done.

This was absoultely incredible work, keep it up!!!

Another awesome video! Your channel has been a huge inspiration as I have been trying out KSP cinematics myself recently.

Absolutely brilliant cinematic! I love the ship designs and the shots used in the video. Hope to see more.

this is astonisbingly beautiful, I'm utterly amazed by the quality of this video. absolutely love it, keep it up!!!!

ur cinematography skills are under rated

This makes me want to play ksp again. Haven’t made these kinds of trips in a few years

That was like if Melody sheep just played ksp and it was GLORIOUS

there's this Melodysheep kinda vibe to ur vids man I love it

as always, great job!

It is depressing to remember that a mission like this could have been undertaken in 1979...and wasn't.

Very similar to how the 1970's, 80's, and 90's scientific investigation of a Mars trip was envisioned. Glad you have a 'spin ship' in this video. A ship with a minimum of one half artificial Earth gravity is a must.

I clicked on this thinking it was some movie scene, but I got ksp. Tbh, I'm not disappointed, in fact I'm more impressed. Good job!

Alternate Universe where the space race did not end

Beautifully rendered pipe dream. Fun stuff.

This is just... beautiful work. Phenomenal job!

rad

Instead of going to Mars, we got a space cargo truck instead…whoopity do. Awesome cinematic!

Just Incredible! If the Soviets had reached the Moon first then, the space race might have taken us to Mars

If America adds two zeros to NASA's budget that year:

1:37 That right there may be, by far, the most Kerbal moment I've ever seen. The slow, graceful liftoff of a rocket far more powerful than anything we have ever built yet in real life. A rocket capable of finally sending people to walk on another planet... …before we zoom in to see engine bells made of riveted sheet metal 🤣

thanks! now i can motivate my builds in sfs!

That's really amazing. Great work! Love it!

What mods do you use? This is ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING!! Good luck when you become famous

AMAZING. That launch vehicle looks pretty boss.

Those first who land will be amongst the bravest humans to ever live in my opinion.

That was a really awesome look at an evolution of Apollo. Really cool vid! Subscribed

gorgeous cinematics !

Love the cinimatography!

So fantastic. Congratulation!

I was alive when they went to the moon. I was old enough to remember Gemini too. I felt (as did a lot of folks) we be on Mars in the early 80s. We had the Saturn V! Von Braun had the blueprints for this (basically). When the end came, I was mad. Now I am in my 60s and hope to see humans on Mars before I die. Politics got us to the Moon. All I know.

Wonderful cinematic, well done!

The music reminds me of life beyond…

This is gorgeous! ❤❤

I could see this happening in some alternate universe in this style. Looks a,along!

wow I'm speechless... Loved it, good job

No one has commented on the music. Could it be more perfect, more appropriate? Wow!

Ladies and gentlemen you're seeing live broadcast from Mars, men and women walk on another planet, opening a new era for the human race. Once they establish a permanent presence and found a sustainable colony all life on Earth will never have to worry about extinction due to a possible catastrophic event here on planet Earth ever again.

"Um Actually This isn't Real"-🤓

Amazing video. I do have one quick question - why do you not do rss?

Outstanding cinematography, congratulations!!!

Amazing and Beautiful!

Nice!

Jebediah Kerman, boldly going where angels fear to tread...

Your cinematics are top-tier man. I'm trying to get on that level lol

I hope and pray we go to mars In my lifetime And that the generations that saw Apollo land on the moon will still be around so we can share that feeling of awe that they felt the first time around

Lovely piece of work! Subscribed!

The design of the ships is really nice I loved the second stage of the lander on ascent

- How many mods do you want? - Yes

Very cinematic, you got a new subscriber :D

Centrifuge created by someone without a single clue about the human inner ear. Minimum radius to allow humans to operate = 1km!

Omg this is so good I thought it was a scrapped For All Mankind scene

Even NASA computer will struggle to run this, damn

I love the way rockets smell

“and lift off of apollo 40!”

This is amazing dude! (Upload your GameDate Folder :3)

the whole channel was super Amazing, must get lot of subscriber/View. like the Incredible Cinematic also

Just INCREDIBLE !!! Serious I loved

Beautiful video!

oh my god this looks.. INSANE!!

9 months is exactly the reason we haven't got there yet. Astronauts don't spend that much even on the ISS that is still under the protection of earth magnetic field. We need an advanced propulsion system, not an Apollo on steroids.

I had insomnia and this video put me into the deepest sleep. Love the music. Well done. I'm gonna send you an RTX4090 so you can make more ;)

Beautiful.

Beautiful!

Nolan of KZfaq👌👌👍👍

That launch vehicle looked like it had a maybe 44' wide S-IC with 7 F-1s, a 27.5' wide S-II with 4 J-2s, and a 27.5' S-III with 2 J-2s. I would love to have seen that version of the Saturn V in real life.

Bravo

The cinematography was off the charts!

Amazing

good work

This is really well done!

Znatrix, we talked on a similar broadcast about what time we have now and about something like that. Well, forget it.

The thing is, this very much could have happened after apollo sometime in the 80's, but it's really only happening now in ,the 2030's

Pretty nice 👍 rocket movie good job 👍

If nasa had infinity budget:

Looked great. One problem: How does the crew get to the rest of the ship from the command module? You would have to put a hatching in teh heat shield, which they did experimentally with Gemini.

I was going to comment that the vab graphics looked like ksp And then I realized it

Wow your better at Camera tools than me 😉

It's great cinematic work. Such a mission plan would seem like a lot of time, effort, and money just to plant a flag on Mars, however.

amazing work done congrats man

I can't believe this wasn't covered in the news..

This is the best one.

Bruh I spent like a whole minute wondering what show this is your ksp install looks like heaven

Mars is a pipe dream. Ain't gonna happen.

i like the 4 extra hammer boosters

Is it mars from ksrss, or just duna?
