- Artist Tom Sachs has recreated an entire four week mission to Mars with nothing but household objects. Working with Nasa and Jet Propulsion Laboratory, his studio created go-kart rovers, wooden rockets, and space sculptures. All of this makes his Park Ave. Armory (NYC) live show "Space Program: Mars" quite the adventure.

Ironically, in an age when space programs are taken for granted of, people are also becoming less and less actually interested in it because of the amount of fancy tech that goes in it just doesn't hold people's short attention spans. This goes back to the actual heart of real space programs, underneath all that shine; the actual journey that all those involve go through and the creativity and ingenuity needed. This is literally the ultimate cardboard spaceship experience we had as children.
This is like the grown up version of the refrigerator box rocket in that back yard that you make your brother shake at lift off.
"the government will crush your spirit," true words that!
Do you honestly not have any admiration for the amount of detail put into this project? Do you find all reenactments/movies/plays hipster bullshit? You have playlists on your channel labeled "FOOD!" and "Workouts!!!", that gives me quite a good indication for the type of mindset you have.
this is maybe one of the greatest things i've seen on youtube....
Please do more on Tom sachs
Would much rather see Vice interview dudes who ACTUALLY made the Mars Rover!!!
Amazing! This is awesome!
Any space program with Queens of the Stone Age playing in the background will get funding from me when i'm a millionaire.
This is the most elaborate, nerdy cosplay ever.
love you vice
Really cool.
those were some good looking astronauts !
man i wish i could hang out with these guys when i use to be a small kid with my neighborhood friends
More real than the one we paid for! At least they admit they can't go into "outer space".
3:44 The LM's on the moon aren't complete and freestanding. They're all missing the ascent stage.
What he means is that every “static display” you have seen is built around a big fat pole or column where there shouldn’t be one.
just because u don't understand it doesn't mean it's not a documentary, its just like the episodes involving food
4:56.....is that a silver 1986 shoulder holder ghetto blaster tape deck?
too funny, brilliant!
Did anyone else notice the bottle of vodka and children's xylophone sitting by that guy?
in the credits it says Van Niestat, should've been Neistat. Nonetheless awesome video!
yea also its clear casey copied toms creative style
I always get Chris hadfield adds before I watch a Tom Sachs video am i the only one?
whats the track at the end?
I would laugh so hard if the first people who got to mars were all pissed as farts!
5:55 " we all just sat around and kinda fucked around with ideas" YEAH don't sensor yourself :)
1:28 god damn she looks like Natalie Portman :) Anyway, this is the ultimate installation and performance art piece
She’s so fine
Is that Stolichnaya on his desk? 3:51
If anyone gets space sickness do they take a placebo?
aha thanks man for clearing it out, i was like wtf i like bikes
This looks like it would be fun high.
The cool kids have gone mad.
Overly propagandized. They might be lost forever.
WOW
tequila vodka and whiskey bar, everything the two astronauts willl need
What a great and fun project, good way of thinking and bringing science to a different thinking audience. Only problem is these babies commenting on the video, my god grow up people
a mission to mars requires nothing more than locking 4 people in a small room for months...any volunteers?
its a small step backwards for politicians, its a giant leap backwards for mankind
Hi Mary!
thanks for sharing we all care
Did i click an Onion video by Accident?
2:45 what the hell is all that shit on the table lol
how is this a documentary again?
what did he mean when he said dont get a motorcycle license???
I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that artists know little about science. Sure they use different parts of the brain and are very different, but people can have more than one skill. Many artists are very interested in science based work, and this guy clearly knows his stuff and has done his research!
Basic carpentry is now harder than rocket science!
Remove all earths resources to explore space. "Man of Steel"
water is still on mars, well ice I believe.
Any one else find it ironic how we cant even conquer the pressure of the deepest parts of the ocean or build on the moon but we want to skip to mars ??
Curiosity is still going strong on Mars in freaking 2021. In a few days the perseverencs rover will land on Mars
what the song playing at 4:49?
You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire - Queens of the Stone Age
One thing where Tom Sach's "NASA" cannot compete, the raw power of a rocket engine on launch and how awesome it is to witness.
film maker can borrow this for making movies~
don't get a motorcycle licence, that's what I learned. Ride safe, but don't get involved in the system.
wut
is this some kinda fuckin joke?? I thought I was getting trolled with the whole liquor + marlboro but then he was serious...
How much marijuana do i need to have smoked to understand this?
Eric Palmer - a few hits of Brutus OG or G13 will be enough. At least for this video.
this is an artistic performance, I don't think you should take it seriously...
Like ending comments, Yeah building robots to making movies since birth people been trying to crush those achievements.
so this is were they filmed the moon landing
It's Van from the neistat brothers
note the word *team*
598 birds have been killed by space launches this year.
...blunt pumps and jack daniels? let's go.
After that, he said "ride safe but don't get involved in the system". I think he meant to go ahead and do things, but without asking for too much permission.
Queens Of the Stone Age - Millionaire
They actually did the same thing for the moon landing.
you are right on, lol
Van Neistat... PROPAGANDIST
I mean: satelites, welding, jet engines, radio, computers and many other technologies were developed specifically with war in mind, but they benefit people enormously. space programs also develop new technologies which will likely have similar un-forseeable spin offs, but they are all about uniting people and moving forward instead of killing each other. If I thought any other scheme would be half as effective at improving life I would admit it.
You have no idea what you'd do instead.
Wait what are they accomplishing? I don't get what there doing..
it would take thousands of years...
so, tell me more about how that jack daniels bottle got empty xd
Queens of the Stone Age = background music win
Also I dont see what you mind about him, he is clearly just playing around, but he is making aware of NASA whose budget has gone down significantly, I think its great that he bothers
How the fuck are they gonna smoke in an all oxygen environment??? It's madness!!!
Mary is a beautiful astronaut.
This is brilliant, if you're confused check out the work of Tom Sachs and the Neistat brothers, particularly Casey Neistat
Casey isn't even that involved with Sachs it's Van who works with Tom
+homayoon ershadi yes you're right, but Casey also worked for Tom for a quite a while
+homayoon ershadi you're wrong, Casey also worked with tom.
far out man
I'm Rick James BIIATCH!!!
Everyone's bashing an attempt to do some
thing significant, in other news, water is wet.
Don’t get a motorcycle license?!???
Less Science = Less Intelligence
Explanation and source please...I'm not being a jerk just curious.
...than we'd be years and years more advanced. i completely agree that the wars need to stop, but that has nothing to do with money. war needs to stop because war is damaging in a million different ways. most importantly; it brings us further apart. we dont need rich people, we need equality, and we need to give those that arent fortunate, a chance to not just survive, but thrive. thats when we will become what we are intended to be.
equality in education and opportunity - yes, definately a good thing. it's a question of delivering such a thing with limited resources without everything becoming equally mediocre instead of uniformly excellent - I would argue that there simply isn't enough human capital for everyone to go to a school as good as oxford/cambridge - however a wealthy institution brings the best minds together very effectively - creating a catalyst for progress which might not exist otherwise.
Yeah we derived a lot from learning about space, but going to mars shouldn't be a priority during a moment when we can't even handle matters at earth. We have enough resources and the agricultural technology for everyone to live independently, but the resources are never distributed equally. Progress isn't just increasing the pool of knowledge. It is also raising the living standards for humanity. You can decide for yourself which should take priority.
Just like the moon landing! made in a studio
This guy could be mad, but how would we know the difference?
lets play pretend
NASA must be pretty bored to be helping some artists make a fake Mars landind
Hmm sounds more like the russian spaceprogram than NASA .
If all this is worth it if one 5 year old is inspired by this than you are need to get your priorities in order
as for the thing about the environment; yes, we should have a more ordered and centralised approach to maintaining and improving the balance of the ecosystem, this is a different issue.
The fact is that there are not enough resources for everyone to do what they want to do, or even what they think they do best. Until there are, we need a system to get people to do stuff they wouldn't otherwise do.
the current system is too un-equal, but to remove inequality itself is fantasy.
Bye bye real NASA. If these guys can do this, private industry is the way to go!
It's depressing that these sad, self-absorbed individuals are more pioneering than any modern space program.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug!!!
Van neistat
so sad, but true....soon all NASA missions will be simulated using LEGO...err, make that Mega Bloks...Lego's are probably out of NASA's budget.
I think your over-exaggerating this whole thing a bit. Its not like NASA has actually hired these people to make a 'play' for them, because of the budget cuts, which is what your proposing with that comment.... Its a bunch of independent artists, which have been lucky enough to have *some* contact with a few people who work for the Jet propulsion lab.
Also inspiration is an important thing, without it there would be a lot less people interested in becoming our future scientists & engineers.
yea but this time cardboard is the main space material...who knew?
God fucking dammit, leave it to the CZcams community to outright not fucking understand art. Bravo.
Martín Brandán - only a hipster thinks this art!
Every time I take a shit .. that's art! No two will ever be the same... no two of mine and no two of yours and mine.... that's fucking "art"! Not these guys that never grew up and a actually made a fucking difference in the world!
THIS IS FALSE THE BEST SPACE PROGRAM IS KERBAL SPACE PROGRAM!
