Artemis SLS vs Apollo Saturn V Lift Off to Tower Clear

  • Note - These approximate lift off times only. Each Saturn V had a different clear tower time (as will SLS) due to load weights, timing, etc.
    However, we can see how the SLS with the two Solid Rocket Boosters (SRBs) and four RS-25's is significantly faster than the Saturn V with it's five F-1 engines.
    Artemis SLS Footage is my own taken November 16th, 2022 at the 1:47AM launch from the Apollo/Saturn viewing facility at Banana Creek, Cape Canaveral, FL.

    The SRBs really give SLS, a small rocket too, an advantage over the Saturn V.

      The Saturn V still has a much higher payload capacity.

      @@gtaxmods saturn v could lift 140t to LEO. SLS block 1 can lift 95T, a fairly large difference but, block 1b will lift 105t and block 130t. 10t isn't much of a difference. The actual capabilities get a bit hazy as all these payload calculation include the upper stages needed for going to the moon. A good metric is payload to the moon, which saturn v could lift 50t to the moon and SLS block 2 will launch up 46t. It's very close although saturn v has the upper hand, but not just in lifting power, also cost. Saturn v cost ~1b per launch while sls is sitting at ~4b 💀

    Saturn V F-1 engines burned korsine they also produce much more vibration in turn shook the ground up to 20 miles away. Video shows the SRB's producing more flame in person the Saturn V was more impressive. The Saturn V produced a rumbling sound of low frequency that lasted for long time you would see the flame the sound of the rumbling then the ground would start to shake under your feet. I saw Apollo 16 and 17 go I was 12 years old.

    Many are jumping to conclusions about the advantage of SRBs. It's true most of the thrust comes from the SRBs, and that SRBs have a high thrust-to-weight ratio. However, this is a design tradeoff like any other. Liquids have much better ISP (efficiency), and are safer for crew because they can be turned off. When Starship launches, it will become obvious that high thrust-to-weight is achievable without solids.

    • @pizzapower95
      @pizzapower95 Před rokem

      Indeed the other problem is that liquid fuel stages, like a fuel tank + engines are really expensive to design, test, and produce compared to solid boosters. But space x said their raptors will be fine for something like 50 flights if i remember correct. So as long as they keep landing the lifting stages its a win win.

      @@cyberdoom9666 common isnt that obvious?
      if you have something really loud thats producing insane amounts of energy in form of thrust and heat, its a good thing to be able to shut it off in case of a failure.
      for example the star ship super heavy booster will have 33 engines when completed. and if one of them has a problem they could potentially shut that one and the opposite one off. the center of thrust wont get affected and all thats lost is a bit of TWR, meaning the mission can almost go on as planned.
      now imagine what happens if one of the 2 artemis solid boosters has a malfunction during max-q.
      maybe the liquid engines could keep it straight whit their gimbal ability. however i wouldnt wana be whit in 100 miles of that event.

      @@cyberdoom9666 Being able to turn them off means when the capsule ejects via the launch escape system, the rocket isn't chasing the capsule because the engines are still turn on. When the LES turns off, the rocket may deviate from it's flight path as well, and it may come dangerously close, and may even collide with the capsule
