    • @ryanjohnson4442
      @ryanjohnson4442 Před rokem

      The ISS is 254 miles above the Earth so it can go 17,000 mph because there is not enough air to slow it down. This rocket only went to like 50 miles above the Earth which technically isn’t even space yet. The fact that we’ve engineered rockets with enough power to reach these speeds is actually a big thing.

    • @anthonyvitori1299
      @anthonyvitori1299 Před rokem

      It's not because the ISS is 250 miles above earth. about 17500 mph is the escape velocity. that's the minimum a rocket needs to escape the pull earth exerts on it. so i guess blue origin will just keep on dreaming about going to space while the competitors are actually doing it

      It’s not going 14 MPH when it actually touches down, more like 2 MPH. The capsule has small engines/rockets that go off right before touch down to slow it down. That is the source of the clouds of dirt you see, those don’t come from the impact.

    We called it an E-ticket ride because it cost a bit more for the best ride at the park. It's wonderful technology. This is just the beginning. Negative waves get you nowhere.

    I come to find that it's weird that they never have an on board camera facing tward space you only see just the ones only facing earth. But I'm taking a good guessing maybe cuz of the sun being bright that there no point of have a camera facing space on take flight. Any ideas ppl?

    • @Zripas
      @Zripas Před rokem +1

      If you have sun in shot then its overexposed, if you aim at space it will be pitch black or just some generic stars you can observe from earth. So no real point to actually point it up.

    Nails landings? Ok the booster landing looked pretty cool but i dont think they fully planned the capsule landing. What, they forgot theyre not landing in the ocean? I hope the crew is okay that was a rough.

    Three questions:
    1. Why does it have such a blunt nose, if it goes supersonic?
    2. Why does it need to go supersonic? In fact why does it need to go fast at all, seeing as it's only basically going straight up?
    3. I wonder if they're working on leaving the capsule attached to the booster for the landing, so just having a powered landing without the parachutes? Surely that would be the way to go?

    • @patrickpowers5995
      @patrickpowers5995 Před rokem

      The ability to (for example) escape the earth is down to velocity and not like climbing stairs. You need to read up on the science.

    • @ecurb10
      @ecurb10 Před rokem +1

      @@patrickpowers5995 But no-one's saying anything about escaping the Earth's gravity. Yes, for that you need escape velocity, but not in this case.
      BTW, no need for the patronising thanks🙄

    • @RMX7777
      @RMX7777 Před rokem

      Not 100% sure but if I had to take a guess I would say it is because the thrust to weight ratio changes throughout the flight. At take off it's just a bit over 1.1-1.4 or so, but as fuel is consumed the rocket begins to weigh less and so it begins to accelerate more. While the engines can throttle they likely can't go below around 50% so eventually as you go through fuel you will start to go very fast. Only way to counter this is to have a different engine for higher up, but that would add weight which is undesirable.

    • @codetech5598
      @codetech5598 Před rokem

      Think of it like this. Let's say they decided to go real slow, just a little faster up than hovering. They would quickly run out of fuel and not be too high above the ground.
