These divers did never such an important job before in their whole life and mostly never will do again. 3:46 the F-Word shame on the U.S. Navy, maybe we civilize them before giving them such important tasks !!! Only joking great job, keep up the good work for humanity.

bipola telly its fukushima

bipola telly Huh? I am German. I said they did a good job, I was serious about it. Not only because they did the job right, also they did something very important, much more important then we all can imagine right now, we have to wait for Orions future, then we all will grasp how much important it is. And Fukushima is something very worse, what can happen to every country with atomic power solutions, I lost friends after the 3.11 there, but I am happy we will not have an atomic power solution in Germany in near future they will be all gone :P Hope the USA & Japan would also follow this attitude. So no reasons to make jokes about the Fukushima & the pacific ocean, the soldiers are save there where they are.

Isaac Schmitt I feel I must make a counterpoint to your points on nuclear power. After studying the complexities of energy policy, economic, social, and environmental sustainability in my undergrad years, I have found that there is rarely a simple answer to our current problems of energy needs and environmental impacts. First, environmental damage from radioactive waste leaks is not necessarily geographically or economically limited. Fukushima's disaster released large amounts of radionuclides into the Pacific, and these contaminants are expected to reach U.S. coastlines in 3-5 years via ocean currents (National Geographic Article: @2013). Japanese fisheries have been drastically effected with contaminants as well, causing billions of dollars of losses: trans-regional economic impacts. The Japanese government, as a developed nation, does not have the means of containing the waste, only minimizing damage, and even then not comprehensively. Here in the U.S., as a developed country, we face similar problems. In March 2014, the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) in New Mexico (where I live) leaked radioactive materials to the surface. WIPP is located some 2,000 Ft underground in ancient salt beds, and is the only permanent storage facility for low-level nuclear waste in the U.S. (there is currently no permanent storage facility for "hot" waste like spent reactor core rods). The WIPP leak shut down the facility, and a year later cleanup is still inadequate. We do not have adequate means for full recovery after a radioactive leak. (Albuquerque Journal article: @593280). You make a good point about fossil fuels doing permanent global damage, and effecting poorer countries most. If our goal is to only drastically reduce CO2 emissions before the 450 ppm point of no return is reached, then nuclear power may provide a quick-fix. But in the long run, nuclear power is too risky and radioactive waste too damaging over thousands of years to provide a sustainable energy solution. There are alternative ways to reduce CO2 emissions. Our German friend’s country is at the cutting edge of renewable energy policy, research, and implementation. Issues of storage and intermittent supply from wind and solar are indeed problems, but ones that are being solved with hydraulic and synthetic methane gas storage facilities (which are effectively carbon neutral as they can scrub CO2 from the atmosphere. Nature article: www.nature.com/news/renewable-power-germany-s-energy-gamble-1.12755). I just want to stress that these energy challenges are nuanced, and there are always tradeoffs. Nuclear power does supply large amounts of low-carbon energy, but the high risk of catastrophic failure and the unavoidable problems with waste isolation storage makes nuclear power economically, socially, and environmentally unaffordable in the long run. I applaud Germany's Energiewende that, while not perfect, is the proving grounds for the future of renewable energy.

Isaac Schmitt Agreed, and a very good point! Sorry if I came off wrong, I find it a fascinating topic. Thanks for a stimulating conversation!

You only swim on the top. I never could see what the big deal was. I’ve swam many times in open water. It’s beautiful. Nice clear, clean water.

@@billmoran3812 You had a large boat with you most likely. An astronaut is wearing a spacesuit that will drag him down and is sitting in a tiny pod that is rocking, tossing, and turning with every little wave because of how top heavy it is. Adrift. Nobody to reach you for hours. Sure, there were no crew on this flight... but still. Imagine what it’d be like for Mercury, where you have to lean out, grab a hook from a helicopter, help the recovery team attach it, and then they fly off with you and your capsule.

Hello, I was in the comment section when I came across yours and i was thrilled to say Hello to you.

December 2014 is not that old time.. only 5 years ago

@@eleggance We should not go back to capsules, that is what i mean of going back

eleggance he was referring older missions like Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs back in the 60s which were all capsules that landed in the water. After that there was a few Skylab missions and then the Apollo Soyuz test project which was the last time the US had manned capsules that would land and be recovered in the water, After that ended they started work on the space shuttle program which is all we had for about 30 years which landed on a runway

steve1978ger An intelligent, attitude-free, polite, extremely well written, grammatically correct comment on utoob... Well done sir, you have made this site a better place!

+Scritley He had me too until he said: "Orion just might." What, be a "reliable, versatile system with comparatively low operating costs"? DId ya not notice the only thing that survived was this capsule? Did ya know that approx. 3 humans can fit in a capsule that size, with barely any booty. So what would it be worth to send three people up and down?

+monokhem (" It's going to take people to the dark side of the moon." 'The dark side' doesn't exist. You mean the far side The moon has a day/night cycle. Full moon is day on this side, night on the far side. New moon is night on this side, day on the far side) The Orion will take "us" much further than that. Eventually, if everything goes according to plan, it wil take us to Mars.

You mean Pink Floyd has been lying to us?!

monokhem There is always _a_ dark side. But because it always changes not _the_ dark side of the moon. If they go to the dark side when it is new moon it means that they will stay on this side of the moon. The same side where the Apollo's landed. They plan to go beyond the far side no matter wether it's dark or light at that time.

Lol good luck out there.

I suppose the letters would be heat-resistant. The flag is the same material as the rest of the craft, you can see it's made out of the same individual tiles. The parachute is automatically cut once it has touched down.

+monokhem had they not decided to switch 100% for the shuttle and discontinue completely Saturn V, they would have been able to lift all of it up in 5 trips instead of 30+. it would have looked massively different tho, with fewer, waaay larger modules. the shuttle was extra cool, but not nearly as efficient as it should have been, not to mention the safety hazard

monokhem the russians built mir without a shuttle, all automatic. could have been done that way, but it wasn't because it was all designed around the shuttle. for the safety concern i wasn't referring to statistics, but more of the design. the way it was done made it more likely to suffer some critical failure, yet there wasn't any way to deal with said failure were they to happen. I like the space shuttle, still like the concept, but it could have been better

Same haha

@@toast6683 hey can you get me a child

Mr Paul Grimm the Orion spacecraft is designed to take humans beyond low earth orbit and more specifically it is designed to take people back to the moon by 2024

Not needed, the approach taken is determined by physics

What kind of design do you expect genius?

@@russellh8702 Chill tf out, god damn.

Yes.

Good question Dan.

It's a bit larger, the electronics, vastly miniaturized, but still splashes down awaiting pick up by Naval recovery. Pathetic,in an era of post lifting body designs. I admit my bias, I prefer the Dream Chaser.

Yes, land at a facility to quickly turn it around for another mission, whereas the Apollo/Orion technique will require ocean transport, and then refurbishing for another flight.

Totally agree.

+Chuck Norris ฝ

Scott Wolf us gvnmt fault cutting budgets

Only the sides of the capsule were covered with Shuttle type tiles. The actual heat shield on the base was a plain old Apollo style ablative shield. The shield itself cannot be used again, but it is detachable and can be replaced so the capsule can be reused. Despite that, NASA is still looking at a different design for the main heatshield because of the man hours required to make an Apollo style shield.

EricIrl Can not the tiles support the heat from reentry?

MuitoDaora I would surmise the re-entry profile would be rather different between the old Shuttle & these capsule style spacecraft. No doubt un-manned craft would again have a different profile (Trajectory) as the G-Loads could exceed that of a Human tolerance, but there still is the heating profile of the craft to consider. A "steep" flight-path no doubt would exceed the temperature AND G-Load capabilities of even the un-manned crafts, both crushing the machine and burning it up to a cinder.

It simply wasn't a "dump and retrieve" mission. This thing came back from orbit, but also from a very hot re entry, and it gave lots of important data on NASAs newest capsule
