Virgin Galactic is still going, you probably meant Virgin Orbit.
Definitely a mistake… compounded by also showing a clip of the Virgin Galactic plane
Badly written or badly read ?
Time to rehire the fact checkers elon
I would just go with another company
Correction, Virgin Galactic did not go belly up, and the spaceplane you show during that segment is still flying. It was Virgin Orbit that went bankrupt, a related, but separate company. Virgin Galactic will still be flying sub-orbital flights.
ugh I just posted this and see you beat me to it by a few hours.
Virgin galactic literally just flew a few days ago
i always check the comments of his vids for corrections. Thank you kind sir for your contribution
Same here, I just posted that lol
Time to rehire the fact checkers elon
I've been excited for Dream Chaser ever since it was announced. I can't wait to see it fly, and it's great to see it coming closer to its maiden voyage every day!
It's a sexy little orbiter-glider. And its flexibility with landing locations -- can even use public airport runways -- gives it a definite reason to exist.
Likewise. All the way back to the brilliant Burt Rutan.
Not with ULA and Blue Origin !
@@virgilius7036 Ya, no shit eh.
Surprise, surprise. Boeing had more issues. This has been a theme with them for quite awhile.
Virgin Galactic is still in the Launch of passengers...
Virgin Orbital is now defunct due to lack of interest by it's financial backers.
They are two different entities...
5:54 - I think you mean "Virgin Orbit" went bankrupt.... the pic you showed was Virgin Galactic, but that space plane would never be competing with Dreamchaser missions... at least I'm pretty sure it wouldn't. Virgin galactic is for suborbital missions.
Virtually all of the Virgin companies I've known have failed. I don't know what they're doing wrong but I wish they would retire the Virgin name or Sir Branson needs business new tactics.
Interesting fact: In 2005, Mark Sirangelo came to Russia and talked with engineers who worked on a similar project during the Soviet era. These projects were called "BOR-4" and "Spiral". Dream chaser is almost a copy of BOR-4.
Sorry to disappoint you, but it is based on Boeing X20 Dyna-Soar, actually Russians stole and copied the tech & the design, Soviet Mig-105 and BOR-4 were in 60s and 80s respectively while United States Air Force was working on X-20 Dyna-Soar in 50s.
I love your content but is there any chance you could use SI units / metric or give both especially when it comes to length and temperature. Pleasssse :-)
never mind... others viewers asked him to do that, and he simple ignored them.
Boeing and safety issues, noooooooo, really? This comes as a total surprise to me 🙂
Napoleon once said "Never reinforce failure". Maybe this applies to Starliner?
It sure does apply to NASA and Untied Launch Dalliance. Maybe we can be grateful for the opening to competition and move into the 21st c.
I like your videos, but they contain factual errors fairly frequently. Quality control means the finished product is as good as it can be. Keep making your videos and I will keep watching them.
Strictly speaking QA and QC bring products to be the best you can make them, not the best they can be. Conceive of QA&QC being part of a project, and having quality (limitations) of their own. Aerospace history suggests this is KEY.
That's a beautiful site, a lot bigger than I was initially expecting.
Should have been Dream Chaser from the the very start with SpaceX.
Makes one wonder if the Artemis space capsule built by Boeing has similar issues as the Starliner and Boeing is covering that up too.
They are making billions and it seems the attitude at Boeing is: “who cares if it doesn’t work”.
We'd love these two things flying sometime !
I was so disappointed when NASA chose Starliner over DreamChaser. NASA really picked the wrong horse to back when they went with "the safe" choice. LOL
Why do you say that. Starliner can't be wrong with all this money put in his development. It's like SLS more you spend more you need it.
If they'd been selected Dream Chaser would probably be ready by now
@@wilboersma9441 I agree. Boeing and all the other “safe” contractors have been using NASA as a slush fund for so long it’s just normal practice for them to keep running up the costs so they get more money. Time to cut them off and get some new contractors
The Dream Chaser looks amazing! I'm excited to see it in action 🙌🚀
It's been a long time, getting from there to here.
Boeing 737 MAX springing to mind with the Starliner problems.
Thanks for good stuff.
Excellent stuff bro
Cool and complex. I'm rooting for them.
Very well presented.
great episode!
If it launches on top of the Vulcan rocket it will no way be price competitive with falcon 9/Dragon. The only way it works is with government contracts. Plus Falcon 9/Dragon already has a safety record. I think the only way it would have been competitive is if it could bring back its second stage engine and solar panels.
A well-made report. I am persuaded Boeing and friends are the premier source of space technology to enter the 21st c.! My congresspersons fully support Untied Lunch Alliance!
Dream Chaser was announced 10 years ago and still hasn't flown ! It sure has so much potential, versatility and promise for the concept to launch and land similar to the NASA Shuttle plane.
But let's get real; Dream Chaser has huge promise and we all wish it well - But it has a very long way to go before it is tested and certified for crew flight.
Finally, a true lifting body. Very exciting stuff!
would make a great escape pod as well
I've heard that since Boeing merged with McDonnel Douglas in the late 90's, the standard of engineering nosedived on their planes because the execs put too much time pressure on the engineers. Apparently it was a huge culture change for Boeing empIoyees. I wouldn't be in the least surprised if the same mentality has happened here - a push to get it done quickly instead of doing it right, errors are made, and the whole thing ends up taking longer than if it'd been done more slowly and carefully in the first place.
Hence the old saying: "Do it nice, or do it twice." Or thrice...
Pencil sharpeners surely are needed, but not at the top where they scream to pull the plug when the first mistake happens and when a single penny too much has been spent, reducing profits, the only metric that matters until bankruptcy.
Missing failure culture probably is another reason?
🤔🍃😉
Here in Colorado, it's "Lou-is-ville". "Lou-uh-ville" is Kentucky.
I had no idea the Dream Chaser was being built so close to where I live!
X37b docked in to the I.S.S. no so long ago. This dream chaser is cool. I'm going to keep an eye out.. really ty4sharing
So they finally built the Dyna-Soar.
took long enough.
Bigelow's Modules were actually 'expandable' not 'inflatable'
Now add a falcon as a reusable booster and you have the most reusable space craft ever (so far)
The Air Force/Space Force has a Space Plane that is being used extensively but secretly! It seems to be very effective!
OMG! Flammable adhesive on the tape covering the wiring? The thought of fire is the most terrifying in a space capsule! Their, “bandaid, fix is almost as terrifying! I wouldn’t be caught dead in one of those capsules with a FAKE fix. Are you kidding me? The thought of being frozen with the noxious fumes and flames of a capsule on fire is absolutely terrifying!
Virgin Galactic will be doing a passenger space flight in the next couple of months*
Epic video anyhow! 🙌🌟
Dream Chaser seems like a great concept, but is there a need for it anymore? Hopefully it will find its place. I guess it might have a quicker turn around. Still would utilize a Space-X launch platform I presume.
There's always the argument of certain spacecraft never being "needed". But Dream Chaser offers a lot of options that other spacecraft don't. Its ability to land on any runway in the world is TERRIFIC for down-mass from orbit, and in the future it is also planned to become human-rated as well, allowing even further redundancy for sending people to the ISS. But the most important thing it can offer: Further options to get stuff into space. There's a lot that goes into making those kinds of decisions, and Dream Chaser can definitely provide an offering that others cannot.
It literally inches us closer to actual compact space crafts like x wing’s and shit from Star Wars I’d love to get my hands on one of these like when few old people had aviator planes in there youth and just sneak out to space and back at nights to clear my head, when it’s able to take off on it’s own ofc no rocket launch needed
Yeah. I guess it could also be another option for an emergency escape craft for the space station. Perhaps they could have one docked permanently.
I mean starship might eat its lunch but its just beyond cool
NASA requires 2 systems so a anomaly wouldn't completely shut down the space program. Should have been Dragon and Dream Chaser from the start! Politicians and unnamed Corporations tried to keep it from happening and slowed down the process and wasted a lot of money.
Virgin Galactic going belly up? Great research.
10:15 "Ir's like stepping on rakes." lol It's a real shame to hear that Starliner is being delayed indefinitely. I'm a huge fan of Beoing aircraft, my favorite being the 737-800 Max. It makes sense that the 737-Max had its problems in light of the this adhesive and parachute line issues that have cropped for Starliner. It seems like Beoing is trying to create craft on the cheap and are willing risk lives in the effort to get it done fast.
I agree w this vid Booing Boeing. They could do better than last-century OneBigProject stumbling.
Here in Houston, they had a very similar space plane that was labeled as a possible ISS escape vehicle.
Dream chaser reminds me of NASA M2-F2
X-37 still getting the real work done.
When they can resist the suns heat I'll consider riding in one,lol
Try looking up the lifting body designs of a certain Hans Multhopp and you find an interesting precursor to this airframe.....
Curiosity question, powered up its low voltage system for the first time. What voltage do they use for their low voltage system? 28v?
Interesting concept but if and when starship flies, it will essentially be obsolete. Starship will carry 150 tons into orbit. That's the equivalent of approximately 7 40 ft trailers worth of mass. The only thing left for this thing would to be a passenger on starship for possibly crew return or something. Even the dragon spacecraft becomes possibly highly commercial with reusable falcon. 9, at least for unmanned applications. Somehow though, I get a feeling in my gut for the space plane is still a good thing to have and the cheaper the boosters are the more relevant it becomes.
Please use celsius in your videos and the metric system
Dream Chaser is my spirit animal!
Attache a couple of Dreams chasers to the Star ship to Mars.
Dream Weaver is what they should have called it.
Boeing's falling off man
It went from being if its not Boeing I'm not going, to if its Boeing I'm not going. I feel much more confident flying Airbus.
1:34 Hollywood did it first with Tv shows Farscape and Buck Rodgers in the 25 century
*I ❤️ LIFTING BODIES*
Dreamchaser will replace starliner.
Dream Chaser looks awesome! Boeing on the other hand seems to have been going down hill since they moved their headquarters and stopped listening to the engineers.
What would be the difference with the space shuttle ?
Dyna-Soar lives!
Gaaaah replacing the wiring harnesses is gonna be a nightmare😢
Boeing's performance all through the
Starliner project is living proof of an old, old, adage...
"Never enough time to do it right, Always enough time to do it over."
How did not a single engineer pull a lighter out of their pocket to see if that tape was really inflammable? Or did they all give up smoking? Maybe Boeing needs to start giving all their aerospace engineers free cartons of Marlboros.
Virgin Orbit is out of Business, Virgin Galactic is still going.
is the tail engines movable because i don't see how it will be maneuverable in space. my ship design has been out for 5 years or so. the one on you tube and the one on go fund me are like the 3 or 4th version
It’s called lobbying, that’s why Boeing is so “trusted”
I met someone on vacation who worked on Starliner. Says the SLS is a disaster.
Perisai dengan blistik dengan setelit yang Penting aman nyaman❤❤❤
This looks a lot like the M3F5 Lifting Body that the 6 Million Dollar Man crashed in. Form does follow function after all.
Zoom Zoom!🌚 To Infinity and beyond!
Great video ! Virgin is launching a bunny hop next week... And V. Orbit is for sale. Have been following the Dream Chaser program since the NASA HL-20 days. Dream Chaser is what the failed space shuttle should have been ! Talked to Jim Benson at ISDC 2001 in ABQ on mining asteroids... before his family sold Dream Chaser and the company to SNC Corp. Back to the Moon to Stay and onto Mars and Beyond-Ad Astra... tjl tjlipin T. Lipinski
Successful power-up is a good step for Dream Chaser, but still a long way from spaceflight, much less crewed spaceflight.
Step 1: Power on
Step 2: ???
Step 3: SPACE!
At 2:15 we see a photo of a conference called The US Department of defense and the UAP Mission. Do you have info about this event?
Glad ULA pass the firing test.
Now if they can make a space aircraft carrier and load it up with 20 dream chasers - that would be interesting
Hey, Dream Chaser, take all the time you can. Test it over and over, remember you only have 1.
Good thing SpaceX isn't a competitor, they would have 5 or more built and tested at !east 2 of them.
Better Idea: put the Dream chaser on top of a Falcon Heavy.
one small screw or chip of paint, going at 18,000 mph would poke a hole right through those inflatable habitat
Dreamchaser is the HL-20 come to life
Did yall try to learn to welder anything up there
Has the Dream Chaser from NASA doest have issues with FAA???
NASA really needs to have CONGRESS pass a lemon law for all space vehicles!. 😉
3:38 why not use a cooling system for hot spots during reentry
i was thinking . liquid nitrogen radiator on the inside or water cooled chillers radiators
Dream Chase is Boeing X-20 Dyna-Soar
The best design of SSTO was the X 33 canceled by Bush the second.
Despite all the setbacks, rest assured of the upper echelon management of Boeing will and did get their expected bonus checks.
The price of a flight will need to be bargain bucket for this to take off or at least a trip around the world in 90 minutes then I could see it working a treat
If that plane were to spin sideways or flip up side down. Is there any coming back from either of these ?
The Dream Chaser’s “lifting body,” design is many decades old. The Air Force was testing that very shape as far back as the ‘60’s!
Yes that was project dinosaur
@@portcybertryx222 The science is still applicable, though.
@@tobyihli9470 indeed. Just doing it at scale and regularly is a challenge
@@portcybertryx222 The action that their looking for is a fuselage shaped as a wing, where the shape causes the air over the top to travel farther and therefore faster than the underneath, creating lift, allowing it to fly, or glide, without large wings. It really works! Don’t know why they didn’t apply nare a bit of the technology in the space shuttle. I feel the Dream Chaser is going to do for this company what the Falcon Nine is doing for SpaceX. I feel it’s a winner.
Lou IS ville, Colorado. They're quick to correct lol
Yeah, it's safe to say that Coloradoans are hyper aggressive and wield a dangerous grudge when outsiders mispronounce their sacred placenames. The terrifying response witnessed here has shocked many. A real eye opener.
Is it possible to stick one on top of a Falcon 9?
Reminds me of the rangers from insterstellar
Sure looks like the HL-10 and the X-37B had a baby....
Crew rated?
hi
A lot of current design are dated back to 60 years ago , and for much larger activities on the moon or space , eventually new design will be needed.
If spacecraft can harvest magnetic field energy from earth ,maybe this is better choice, but that will also involve the development of new material that can sustain magnetic energy even after atmosphere burn, so maybe can look at the meteorite that fall on earth,but suitable examples are rare,hmm.
Sure wouldn't want to be the first to fly on starliner.
Just because its the same company (Boeing) doesn't mean its the same Engineers.
Many Engineers of this generation have fallen far behind the capabilities of their predecessors.
If they had been asked in 2021 to land Man on the Moon and bring him back again (all from scratch and no prior knowledge), I wonder if they could even do it again?
Of course that's without the help of SpaceX who seems to have absorbed the gems of the industry.
I'd work for SpaceX any day.
Starliner will do great when its ready! Im a huge supporter of boeing and ULA!
One nitpick at 0:45, we pronounce the "s" in Louisville, CO. Yes, we're weird. We like it that way.
If you 'really' want the Dream Chaser to be successful, you have to bring in astronaut John Crichton to pilot it.
I don’t understand why Boeing only has two active Starliner. Wouldn’t it make more sense to build multiple versions. They could then test more frequently like how SpaceX operates. They could then retire the existing vehicle, or do other test on the body while they focus on building another starliner with the correct adhesive tape. Starliner will eventually need to have a sustained production line once a more final version is set as it can’t be reused indefinitely. It’s only meant to be used 10 times before retirement.
