    I’m biased but nothing will ever look as cool as a Saturn V liftoff. Apollo 17 was the only lunar mission I have memories of watching live, and I’ve always been fascinated by the early days of space exploration. Kudos to you for all of your work past, present, and future.

    Watching this I remember a quote from a Shuttle Astronaut about the power of the SRB's; "If there's going to be a launch (Abort / Hold), you better hope it's before the (SRB's) ignite, because once they do, you're going *somewhere*."

    The liftoff of both launch vehicles and spectacular. The Artimas flame front from the SRB'S was amazing and the SRB SEP was fantastic. The Apollo 17 launch was also incredible. The first stage sep was excellent to see. Both launches were great.

    In 1972, the world watched as Apollo 17 launched on what would be the last manned moon mission of the 20th century.
    Fifty years later, in 2022, the world watched once again as Artemis 1 set off on the first mission of a new manned lunar program, starting mankind’s long-awaited return to the Moon.

    It is claimed the Apollo launches were felt as much as heard. The size of the Saturn V F1 engine nozzles caused the maximum sound power levels to peak around 10-20 Hz, at 120-125 dB at the VAB. This caused visceral sensations in the gut and lungs which can be heard in the cries of people in audio recordings made on site. During the Skylab launch there is a metallic sound which an eyewitness claimed was the enormous roll-up doors on the VAB rattling. Those recordings were still on the web 5 years ago but no longer.

    My husband witnessed both launches. Both were amazing. You just cannot beat a manned crew. Artimis still has a lot to prove. At the end of the Mission, both discarded over 90% of the vehicle. And we lost historic shuttle era engines. How did we improve over 50 years?
    I am looking to Starship. Artimis is just too expensive and expendable. Great light show though.

    • @clarkpj1
      @clarkpj1 Před rokem +1

      Yup, everything gets thrown away including the SRB's which used to he recovered for reuse. That's why there will only be 8 launches of the SLS after which NASA will need new launch vehicles...after 8 launches they run out of Shuttle main engines and SRB segments.

    Nothing comes close to a Saturn V launch and Apollo 4 remains my favourite thanks to the awe it inspired in Apollo fan, Walter Cronkite's commentary. 7.5 million pounds of thrust simply dwarved all that had come before and the press and tv men just weren't prepared for its magnificence, plus the fact that this was the machine that ultimately would take men to the Moon and it worked so well first time up, I'm pretty sure that many of the journalists were half expecting Apollo 4 to explode into millions of pieces without even leaving the launch tower because of previous failures with new rocketry. In comparison, the STS was a lot less bang for wasted bucks.

      Part of this is also that the SLS core is somewhat overpowered for the Block 1 vehicle. Block 1B will lift off much slower, and will have the EUS completing the last leg of ascent much like the SIVB.

      @kalzsom7128 Před rokem

      @@okankyoto True, B1b will be slower on ascent. Also because of the co-manifested payloads on the EUS. An other interesting fact might be that with Artemis I, the SLS core stage is probably the largest object that was ever sent beyond LEO as it sent Orion to a 30x1800km orbit. Of course the core stage then reentered and burned up, but it’s still cool.

    I watched the liftoff of every manned Apollo Saturn V and Skylab live and there’s nothing to beat it. I do appreciate Spacex’ coverage of its launches with their detailed presentation of velocities and distances, but NASA’s coverage of Artemis was abysmal. No onboard cameras, no on-screen info and any data they did present was in old-fashioned mph, miles and feet per second. Seems NASA still haven’t learned from the Mars Climate Orbiter debacle.

    • @JBM425
      @JBM425 Před 4 měsíci

      I did not care for the NASA PAO coverage of the Artemis launch, but I’m going to defend them for using Imperial units instead of metric. Although NASA uses the metric system internally, the US is still officially on the Imperial system; while many Americans are at least familiar with the metric system, most American are more comfortable measuring altitude and speed in miles. I count myself among the latter.

    • @hardakml

      Yes, we understand that the USA is still miles behind the rest of the world when it comes to using the global units of measurement and frequently pays the price for that. I also understand that NASA is a government entity paid for by US tax dollars and is not a global enterprise, but once you start thinking globally like SpaceX does, even NASA will have to change to SI units. @@JBM425
