You guys are way too professional for this type of achievement. Are you sure you are amateurs? Very impressive. I hope Elon Musk comes across this video. Very well done.
Did you not read the video description, where it was explained that a non-distorting RECTILINEAR lens was fitted to the rocket camera for the 2nd launch shown in this video?
Congratulations! Well done! All the time, research, testing, and planning really paid off! What an amazing accomplishment. I still have my grandfathers handbooks on Rocketry basic fundamentals from 1955 when he worked at Boeing developing the first ICBMs. You've come along way, even without BOEING, NASA and US funding! Congratulations

@@Alexey018 There is a lot of high altitude footage with rectilinear lenses. Besides that, a fish eye lens do not distort the center of the frame. So a straight object in the center stays straight.
@@Alexey018 We know Earth is not flat, but spherical because every observation, every experiment, and every measurement we have done for the past 2500 years tells us Earth is spherical.
Our president who made an science baccalaureate should give free liberty to lauch some hobby rockets in central massive montain or in wine, weat large aeras with an science degree. No need to pass an L1 or L2 or L3. We are responsable people with an science baccalaureate. I don't want to pass these steps...How progressing at ESA without some initial hobby workers with their own money!
We live in an incredible time where a single individual with modest means, and true determination, can deliver such feat. Without minimizing the achievement here, let's acknowledge the shoulders of giants that made this possible.
We’ve been studying Earth’s shape for 2500 years. We have more than a dozen different methods to determine Earth’s shape. Every single experiment, measurement and observation shows Earth is spherical, not flat. Including this video.
@Hobbes746 deliberate liar or ignorant fool, which one? Michelson-Morley proved what? Until even 100 years ago people were not buying the garbage lies. Why don't we see completely different star constellations every season, especially winter/summer or fall/spring? Why can we see farther with far infrared cameras than we can with our own eyes or regular cameras when we're supposed to see a lot less if we live on a ball? Real science destroys the lunacy of the fake ball spinning in the space of average IQ.
It's so ridiculous that flat earthers think that this video is about them and/or disproving them, and take the time to spam comment section about "fish eye lens" and other deranged hypothesis of why this proof is not valid. This video is not about you, It's not a proof of anything, because no proof is needed. It's about a group of people, a passion and and a successful engineering feat, and a great one at that. Video footage was recorded as a proof of the feat, not to prove something that we already know from thousands of years. I'm sure they're happy about the increased engagement coming from your comments, but... This video is not about you, it was never about you, nobody takes you seriously, get help and go away, or stay and enjoy the video for what it is.
glerfs, science bitches & astronomers: show us flat Earthers a video of a glerf amateur recording the other made up imaginary magical planets supposedly constantly orbiting the Sun magically all by themselves while they're constantly orbiting the Sun magically all by themselves, I wanna see that magical fkn shit show 😂😂
With regards to a 'fkn shit show', that would be this fictional fantasy land you believe in - the flat earth. Just out of interest, what 'force' or 'mechanism' causes the flat earth sun to be suspended over the earth's surface and to move in a circular path once every 24 hours and to then alter this path slightly each day in order to cause the seasons?
@@sailorman8668 that's just like me asking you that if Earth is constantly orbiting the Sun at 67,000mph with the Moon orbiting Earth at 2,388mph with other made up imaginary magical planets constantly orbiting the Sun while the Sun is constantly blazing through the universe at 500,000mph all at the same time, then How tha fuk is the Sun sitting still in the sky long enough to cause seasons on Earth from 93 million miles away from Earth outside of Earth? How tha fuk is the Moon sitting still in the sky long enough to cause tides on Earth 240,000 miles away from Earth outside of Earth? 😂😂 the globe BS doesn't make sense bro, just think about it
@@sailorman8668 we believe the electromagnetism & electrostatics of Earth works with the Sun & Moon, the Sun is + & the Moon is - like a clock, all 3 works together with the Stars & aether, if the globe was true then How tha fuk could the Sun & Moon be seen in the same sky at the same time during the day?
@@Bnslamb oh am I gonna see Stars you think are planets magically sitting still in the sky yet they're supposedly constantly orbiting the Sun while chasing the Sun at 500,000mph? through the universe at all at the same time? tell me you believe magical white flying unicorns do exist 🤣🤣🤣 tell me you believe the real tricks rabbit does exist & it talks too 🤣🤣🤣
A rocket large enough to go to the moon is about a thousand times larger than this. Imagine being uninformed enough to think going to the moon is “easy”.
@@tonyflatearther _"yet nasa supposedly went to the Moon"_ And many other space agencies went too. Notice how those rockets are so big that they can't be carried by a person.
According to the video description, the 2nd rocket launch shown in this video contained cameras fitted with non-distorting rectilinear lenses - you didn't read this?
The spinning stabilizes the rocket. The alternative would be to install servos to operate flaps on the fins to control the rocket’s trajectory. The guidance system you need for that is complex, and you have to build it yourself because those are not commercially available.
