  • Multiple camera side-by-side views comparing SLS to Saturn V liftoff. Two night launches are shown: Artemis 1 on October 20, 2021 and Apollo 17 on December 7, 1972
    Sequences are presented at approximate real scale, and synchronized visually to the timing of Solid Rocket Booster ignition. Camera angles were also matched as possible. Audio from SLS is played on the left channel, and from Saturn V on the right.

    ========================================
    The Space Launch System (SLS) is an American super heavy-lift expendable launch vehicle in development by NASA. As the primary launch vehicle of the Artemis moon landing program, SLS is designed to launch the crewed Orion spacecraft on a trans-lunar trajectory. The first SLS launch was the uncrewed Artemis 1, which took place on 16 November 2022.
    Saturn V is a retired American super heavy-lift launch vehicle developed by NASA under the Apollo program for human exploration of the Moon. The rocket was human-rated, with three stages, and powered with liquid fuel. It was flown from 1967 to 1973. It was used for nine crewed flights to the Moon, and to launch Skylab, the first American space station.

      Saturn and Apollo each had on-board digital computers for automatic flight and navigation, plus NASA had several ground computers for automated checkout, flight planning, simulation training, and real-time operations and tracking.

      Once block 2 starts flying, the throttle down will no longer happen- the boosters will have the maxQ throttle bucket cast into their propellant grain and the main engines will be able to stay at full thrust during that time!

      The Saturn is actually more capable/efficient than the SLS in terms of payload capacity, though the SLS ascended quicker and has slightly more thrust.

      ​@@jmwoods190 i wouldnt say more efficient
      The difference in LEO capability comes from the fact current SLS version is much lighter and smaller than Saturn V, even though it has more efficient propulsion.

    Great stuff! The thing I loved about the early launches - always filmed on 16, 35 or 70mm film which has a wide dynamic range and they used up to 4,000mm focal length lenses. Not what was seen on TV as film needed to be developed, but awesome quality video after the launches. Shuttle launches at these distances I believe were just broadcast video except those high frame per second film cameras on the pad which were developed and analyzed after the fact. Now we’re up to 4K or 8K HDR, but I’m still not sure the quality is as good as film. Close though. I believe the distant film - the “Recording Optical Tracking Instrument” (ROTI) had focal length of up to 12,700mm, and enough magnification to follow the launch for up to five minutes. Not sure if that was used during STS as much. At least not for broadcast.

    • @okankyoto

      @@TastyBusiness There were 2 night N-1 launches, 5L & 6L. 5L was the infamous one that blew right after liftoff weeks before Apollo 11, while the 6L cleared the pad, but blew up less than a minute later.

    They say SLS is more powerful than Saturn V. So why can't it throw as much mass toward the moon? Sure, it has more thrust at liftoff, but those solids taper off as they climb, where the Saturn first stage thrust increased with altitude. Considering the whole flight, Saturn delivered more power where it counted.

    • @_mikolaj_
      @_mikolaj_ Před 11 měsíci +3

      Thats not the reason.
      Reason lies in second stages. SLS still has interim upper stage that is undersized for the core stage, beacuse congress didnt want to apply proper funding. With future upgrades SLS will match Saturn V at some point with Block 2

      @@ClausB252 I myself don't work at NASA or in any of the companies that build SLS, but I do know some people that do. The current public information on the capabilities of SLS are mostly outdated. The current publicly available data of the EUS was released around 2018. Since then there have been several re-designs. The Block 2 information is even more outdated. Boeing has talked about switching over to composite fuel tanks for EUS sometime in the future. This should increase it's performance by 30%. With this upgrade we could be looking at 60-72 tons to TLI. This year Boeing should be releasing some updated info on the capabilities of EUS now that they've began building the first one. SLS Block 1 is a good example of how long it takes for information to be publicly released. From 2011-2018, everyone assumed SLS B1 would only be able to lift 70T to LEO, but in late 2018/ early 2019 this information was finally updated and NASA publicly shared that B1 would be able to deliver 95T to LEO.
      Edit: James "Jim" Free said last year that they want to wait to see if they get actual flight data to publish updated EUS specifications.
