that's cool, if you still have those 3D models, could you send them to me? I'm thinking I'll make a video with them too :)

You lost me right at the beginning, when you said in space gravity is the only thing affecting trajectory. This flat out wrong. ): Ever heared of magnetic fields, radiation pressure, solar wind etc? ):

Could two spacecraft dock together, say in the case of an emergency? Such as the Crew Dragon and the Boeing Starliner.

Thanks for the explanation.👍

2:59 mis firing of a stage is more of a concern with series staging and routine flight schedules not experimental ones

Wow. I knew they made 'adjustments' to the ISS's position to avoid debris, change orbit and stuff... but I didn't know they ROTATED THE WHOLE FREAKING STATION as a matter of course for dockings! Now I know about angular momentum and I can steer a space station thanks @SimplySpace

It says “not available in my country or region” in the U.S 😔💔

Great overview and supporting animation!

Male docking system is better

How long do the rubber O-rings last? /In the Newtonian World

I'm honestly surprised about this. I thought I knew everything about the space shuttle and its re-entry after nearly four months, and I just learned a ton of new things. New subscriber earned.

This style seems familiar...*starts thinking about Manual Docking*😂

you gave me a idea for a future pakistani space agency rocket thannks

Where you study about this. are you an official student of Aviation like me ? i wish i could make an explain video like you.

😅😅😅😅😮well information good show 😅😅😅

Absolutely fascinating.

I can't play

If it wasn’t crazy enough that a ‘flying brick’ aka Shuttle was actually a glider for landing I was stunned to learn that the ‘flight corridor’ had to factor in a short phase during which it was planned to skip off the atmosphere due to an initial high angle of attack to bleed off a large amount of re-entry speed. Then land on the relative postage stamp of a runway.

This is totally lies and bogus there’s no freaking way this can be done at 17,500 mph.

Boeing Star liner ahahah what a expensiveness joke that is, bet they had to strip it back down and check they had put all the bolts in.

It needed to go. The shuttle was dangerous.

Will be showing these to my students. Thank you for your work.

Great video. Just what I was looking for. First one I found. I wish It had annotations like velocity of initial thrusters, distance traveled to each mile point, names of astronauts on the mission, who was flying what, how far the orbiter was from the surface of the moon, how far back to earth they had to travel. These could be real easy to add to this video and wouldn't require anymore animations.

Hold my beer! I will explain the TLDR ok.... It starts at launch, before booster separation there always is and was debris hitting the underside of the shuttle. NASA didnt GAF about it even tho it could potentially pose great danger to the astronauts. Any ways before booster separation, either a huge piece of ice, or foam that is travelling near the speed of sound, impacts the underside thermal tiles on the shuttle. The boosters separate and they continue onward onto MECO. At or around MECO the big dumb orange tank is jettisoned, and astronauts are supposed to get some up close photos of it as it drift away to inspect for damage. There is also a huge amount of time allotted to asses the tile damage up there, and despite the amount of damage NASA will and would always green light reentry. It simply didn't matter, they didn't give a shit. Astronauts do their mission and do pre-reentry checklist, and then de-orbit. everything is going good, its going good. Then they hit the thicker part of the atmosphere and experience what is called a plasma blackout so comms are down at this time, it is also at this time that the shuttle is its hottest, and also unbeknownst to anyone the damaged tiles fail, allowing searing hot plasma to incinerate the shuttle and kill everyone onboard. There ya go. NASA are douches.

How to get it on ios?

This is excellent.

Dragon xl cargo moon missions

This guy seems to have vanished off the face of the internet

We Americans never landed on the moon 🌙!!! Come on man?

I thought I’d be able to make it through this video but my ADHD got the best of me. Damnit.

I understand how you felt about the space shuttle ending

This was so intense, I watched it twice!

What an amazing video! Amazing! Great job in explaining the complexities if Shuttle re-entry! Kudos?

Ahhhh Mr. Nukey Back in the day around 100 pace maker patients recieved pace makers that instead of batteries that needed constant replacement, they used very small radio isotope thermoelctric genrators. Those patients never needed the power source replaced and a few of those people are still alive today

I think you are giving NASA and Boeing too much credit here. You are showing a system that is identical in every aspect to the APAS system developed by RKK Energia of Russia. Except APAS had two seals on the mating surface for redundancy. I had a pleasure of meeting and working with the inventor of this system, the late Vladimir Syromyatnikov and his chief engineer Yevgeny Bobrov at KSC back in 2000. I suspect this nasa system uses more compact electronics than those on the APAS flown on all shuttle missions.

i have a question, how did the vestible get pressurized? what's the process of it? how does it function?

Notification Squad! :D

Graphics by Amiga 500 ?😂

What is the cost of 1 docking port

Uwdidhrged

i’m not buying any of the pseudo science lol

It's annoying that they are not actually androgynous

One of the great things about the design is how symmetrical it is. Everything is mirrored, so any two of the docking port can get together and latch through the hard capture.

I'm still waiting to see it launch undamaged and return undamaged, or even just return and last longer than 4 mins.

Thought LEO was about 7,8 km/s. So nearly 8.

amazing! excellent work. very well explained.

Marvelous video for Aerospace student, Sir Deserves minimum 1M subscribers.. 💕 From Nepal

Great video! Looking forward to future uploads!

Thanks for this explanation. Simple but informative!
