    Scott, there are high quality cameras on board, however there isn’t sufficient downlink bandwidth available to send it back to Earth. To save bits, the raw camera feeds are taken for a few seconds, reduced to the minimum number of bits needed to get the basic picture, then a slate is displayed while the system prepares a few seconds of the next camera in the rotation. This signal is the presented to a multiplexer which inserts the feed into the downlink back to Earth. So basically the images have been folded, spindled, and mutilated by the time we get to see. The good news is that the raw video is being stored onboard. After the spaceship has returned, the folks at JSC will ingest, categorize, publish, and archive the videos and still images. Once this is done, the imagery will be made available to the public. So we just have to be patient for the good stuff.

      They redirect the rocket exhaust below the landing pad, so it doesnt impact it directly. I'd wager there is a lot of headroom.
      I'd assume the important size limit for rockets is more about structural strength of materials. Same as construction, every material has a weight capacity it can support. And the bigger you build, the more of that weigth capacity is taken up by material to keep up structural integrity. Eg the biggest steel-column you can make is so heavy it can only support its own weight, and nothing else.
      So the bigger you build, the less weight-efficient. And since the rocket equation is so brutal, you really cant afford much "waste".

    The thing with ITAR is each organization is responsible for ensuring they are in compliance, so if there is ever any doubt they'll err on the side of caution. In this case, I can see where some of the quick disconnects and ground service equipment would have relevance to missile development, so I can see the argument that was being made.

    A statement and a question:
    I have been functionally blind since birth, and I am among a crowd of people like me who would LOVE to go to space. I can't help but wonder what our absence of sight would allow us to perceive, document, and study.
    The question:
    How extensive was the illumination produced by SLS as it launched? That is to say, what was the area of effect where increased lighting was visible to the naked eye?

    • @phillyphakename1255
      @phillyphakename1255 Před rokem +9

      That is a difficult question to answer, how far was the illumination from SLS visible? The human eye can see a candle from about 1.6 miles away in an otherwise dark environment. With that in mind, the rocket flame itself would probably be visible from wherever on earth you could physically get line of sight to the rocket. Regular Falcon 9 rockets are visible going up from Orlando, about 60 miles away, and as Scott said, the solid fuel is much brighter per unit thrust than even the kerosene flame of the Falcon 9.
      But another question is what part of the sky the rocket illuminates. The sun makes the sky blue, and a rocket makes the sky brighten up yellow even away from the exact direction of the fire, but how far does that extend? That question I have no concept of how to calculate or conceptualize. It is probably largely dependent on the clouds, moisture in the air, particulate air pollution, etc. Those things allow light to be reflected and refracted, such that they don't travel in the straight line from the rocket or sun to your eyeballs.

    • @NeroDefogger
      @NeroDefogger Před rokem +1

      as the other comment kinda said, if you had a straight path of sight to it you could see it, I've seen several lights from different things being able to illuminate pure darkness like if it was day, even tho the sun is very luminous at its distance the intensity that reaches us is kinda high but totally replicable with artificial lights, so yeah very bright stuff is common and this huge rocket was expectedly bright

    The Chinese upper stage detonation could have been a deniable ASAT test. The PLAN has been pushing hard in recent years to close the missile gap with the west, especially in ASAT and ABM tech, and there's been a fair bit of buzz around the OSINT community that they're getting close to a viable ASAT platform. Not inconceivable to think they could've installed a missile test rig on a satellite, or even Tiangong, and used that spent upper stage as a target.

      I think the more obvious answer is much more likely: technical malfunction. It's still a fairly new launch vehicle (even the CZ-8 it's based on has only flown like 3-4 times so far), and breakup after a few hours could be due to all sorts of reasons from stuck vent valves to an engine failure during an attempted reentry burn. For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure the previous confirmed ASAT tests all produced far more smaller debris pieces, and also there has been no report of any object colliding with the stage after it deployed the satellite (and you better believe the US Space Force would tell us if they had any indication of a potential weapons test).

    Hey Scott, go check the acceleration of SLS off the pad frame by frame, I clocked it at 3-5G in the first half seconds of the flight. I think something went really wrong with SLS’s boosters in the first few seconds of flight. It cleared the tower in 6.33 seconds and based on its official TWR it should have taken 7.1 it accelerated far too fast and was faster than even Falcon Heavy. It had an average TWR of over 1.5 in those first few seconds, peaking at a TWR over 4-5 right after lift off. Its acceleration curve is inverted from what you would expect of a rocket taking off. I strongly suspect that SLS nearly exploded on launch and I have no clue how it survived.

      @thedyingtitan1247 Před rokem

      @@LSF17 basically you heard of all the old stories about “old military weapons” getting unstable with age? Well that doesn’t just apply to bombs. The SRBs use ammonium perchlorate as an oxidizer and is water soluble. It can leach in humid and wet conditions, like say florida. This can potentially result in a thin layer in the fuel of the SRB that’s super oxidizer rich right as it ignites.
      Watching the launch frame by frame from multiple angles the first SRB lighting nearly launched SLS on its own lifting it over a foot, it shouldn’t be able to do that, SLS’s SRBs have a rated thrust at sea level of 1490 tons and the 4 RS-25s even at max power produce around 758 tons to be generous. That’s “only” 2550 ish tons of thrust, SLS is 2660 tons at take off. And you can actually see it lift a foot, settle 6 inches and then the second booster lights and it flies off the pad like its a bat out of hell with the devil on its ass.

      Maybe they adjusted the throttles on the 4 hydrolox engines a bit too high. Or maybe the boosters had a higher than planned initial thrust. No idea why you consider either a near explosion.
      Astronauts with Jet fighter training should be able to handle that momentary G load before returning to the scheduled flight profile.
