MalanUs i mean the rockets are nothing to do with us but still i feel bunch of emotions by seeing how far we come as species and seing this kind of progress in the middle of wars terrorism and shit. a private company archieving better progress than government funded nasa. its just priceless. fuck my english
You have to remember though, NASA has given them so much help, all the learnings from the past. It's not like SpaceX is starting from scratch. Still, amazing vision by them and determination.
Adam Austin holy crap I’ve never seen one in the wild, a flat earthed lol. The lowest of low, the idiots of all idiots. The brainless of humans. People who can’t see what’s right in front of them. You obviously have no idea how cgi works, give me a shred of evidence to support your claims that arnt, ThE gOvErNmEnT wOnT sHoW uS tHe ReAl EvIdEncE.
I personally love watching SpaceX reach milestones. What they have achieved in only a matter of a few years in mind boggling and extremely fun to watch. I have no doubt that Elon Musk will end up as one of the most influential persons of the 21st century. Millennials need more positive figures to look up to and Musk is one of them. People like Kanye West and the Kardashians are of no comparison to Musk and the people of SpaceX who are achieving such amazing technological achievements that will change the world of space flight.
+M Poore Actually he has nothing to do with Hyperloop ... it was his idea, but he is in no way involved in its creation. Tesla, SpaceX, Solar City. Thats Mr Musk right there!
Ir Jacoby yeah, I've since been made aware of that, haha, I mean, the way he has spoken about it is like he came up with it. He may have come up with it on his own (as in not been aware that it was an existing idea) but even so, he managed to actually get people moving on developing (or trying to develop) it.
Me too, I find this footage extremely powerful and inspirational, watching it everyday is my get up and go! reading an Elon musk book atm, he sounds like a right @£&$ to work for but gets the job done. 👍
I'm late to the party, I know. But I'm a girl and technology on this scale often passes my notice for a while. But man, my heart is bursting and I'm almost crying because I'm so proud to be the same species as Elon and SpaceX team. I missed the moon landings and all that... before my time... but now just wow. Modern miracles and magic! Thank you for making this brief summary... I'm still gonna be watching more, for as long as I can breathe!
I think the most mind-boggling thing about this is that over 8 years later, SpaceX is still the only rocket manufacturer that has successfully landed and re-used an orbit-class rocket. In fact; outside of a couple of prototype attempts, nobody has even attempted it. NASA, ESA, and ULA have all just launched brand new rockets that have absolutely no reuse capabilities and no plans for future implementations of re-usability. A private company that nearly went bankrupt multiple times went against governments and megacorporations and completely warped past them and nobody is even close to catching up.
We’re coming up to the 5-year anniversary of this video... so much has happened and I’m still anxiously waiting for another video and if you’re not gonna do it, I will take this into my own hands.
That was amazing. It got me pretty emotional. Extremely high quality. One could make such a video about SpaceX's complete history, including the failure and business events.
Several years ago, I couldn't describe how excited I was when watching this video. This video described very well the milestone of Falcon 9 development, the first reusable first stage rocket booster created by SpaceX. This video is fascinating. Even Elon Musk himself write about this youtube video on his Twitter. At the end of this video, there is statement which still echoing in my mind. "SpaceX lands Falcon 9v1.2 on Of Course I Still Love You - April 8, 2016. The Grasshopper's first hop - September 21, 2012. Less than 4 years. What do you think will happen in another 4?" Well, today is the answer. They could send astronaut to ISS safely. Hopefully they could carry them back home safely too. I may not from that country, but I could still feel the excitement. Congratulation, SpaceX. And thank you, Kinematic for creating and showing this video. 🙏🏻
Excellent video, just wonderful, the use of speed manipulation made it all very exciting, and the track playing in the back ground was perfect. great work!!
2008: First rocket made by a private company to launch to earth orbit. (Land launched) 2012: First rocket made by a private company to launch a suborbital-class rocket then propulsively land it. 2016: First rocket made by a private company to launch an orbital-class rocket and then propulsively land the first stage on an autonomous drone ship. 2020: First rocket made by a private company to launch humans to the International Space Station. SN8 also flew, which obviously has never been done before. 2024: First rocket made by a private company to launch to Mars, with humans.
I watched this more than a dozen times now and it still puts tears in my eyes. I watched the CRS-8 landing live and this was an incredible moment of experiencing history.
I do not work at SpaceX nor have i achieved vendor status Yet...However, I'm super proud of the entire SpaceX team, especially those girls and guys at McGregor, Tx. Local company!
+Christian Gentry (TooTights) Fuck that, i want to to be born when i can travel to UY Scuti and suck out all of it's life force and use it to make me immortal
4:02 10 Starship prototypes, 4 flown, 3 landed successfully, 1 used revolutionary techonlogies to stabilise itself, 3 performed at least a 150m hop, 2 with the engone offset from the center, 3 were full-scale prototypes and all of these were successful in their own kind.
7 years later... Starship takes off for the first time. Falcon 9 is what really makes Starship born. Go Starship, Go SpaceX! Congratulations to the entirety of the Starbase team and SpaceX for making the world's most powerful rocket clear the tower, reach Max-Q then tumble at up to 10 G's of force before blowing it up.
This restores my faith in humanity just a little. Maybe some day we will learn to leave war, hunger, and death behind - learn to love one another as one people, as one race, the human race, and together spread our wings and explore space. This is my dream and while I might have been born perhaps just a little too early to see it realized, it is accomplishments like this that give me hope when all hope seems lost.
i would say a global space agency that focuses on exploration crew training ... and multiple launch providers like space x to generate competion and competion is what we need to get nice technology
5 Years later: the first Falcon Booster will achieve a double digit number of launches tomorrow, Booster 1051 got 417 Starlink satellites, Demo-1 , 3 RCM satellites and SXM7 into space...
+Ввысь, в космос! - Russians should be proud of this too. The path and calculations for launch and return of the booster from launch to touchdown was developed by the Soviets in the '70s. The technology did not exist for a landing at the time but I am sure that Musk, based upon his voracity in absorbing knowledge, would have been familiar with their work too. I believe those scientists pioneering work was by no means minor to convincing Musk this was the correct path to follow.
4 years later we have a proposed way to get to Mars on board Starship and SpaceX gave NASA a way to launch American astronauts from American soil to the ISS for the first time since STS-135 in 2011
Around 4 - 5 years later. SpaceX has launched 3 Crew Dragon Missions (Demo-2, Crew-1, and Crew-2). And have begun testing starship. They have flown starhopper, sn5 and sn6, and high altitude tested SN8, sn9, sn10, sn11, and sn15. And are now working on the OLS and OLIT with BN2 and Sn20
To be a part of this is a dream come true. The emotion I feel with either failed or successful mission is so tremendous. Proud to be a part of history and your future.
2012: Grasshopper 2016: Landing a Rocket on a Barge 2020: Sending Astronauts to the ISS 2024: Catching the Largest Flying Object Ever 2028?: Landing humans on the Moon
Excellent video. Even when I couldn't read the text. Make text bigger next time. Not everyone has 100 Mbps internet to stream at 4K with a 54 inch monitor and sitting 1 foot away from it.
I would love to see an updated version of that with Falcon Heavy and everything if this channel is still active. This is still one of my favorite videos to watch when I’m down. Thanks a lot for making it back in the day. Can’t believe this is already 2 years old...
This video is one of my favorites. I'm over 30, no kids, but as an engineer I seen SpaceX grow up and this video truly hits right in the heart and feels.
I used to like the space shuttle as a primary school kid, but then I realised it's a deathtrap. I realised this after trying to build an SSTO in ksp and I learned of all the factors that blows stuff up with spaceplanes.
J Shepard No it wasn't. Any machine operated outside its design tolerances can be dangerous. Overruling the engineers and launching when it was too cold, and changing the insulation, were both asking for trouble. Had those decisions not been made, neither accident would have happened.
+Jude Lau Tesla is pretty global already. And they seem to treat employees of both 'together'. -Like teams from both helped start HyperLoop, and SpaceX empolyees got to order Model 3's early with the Tesla employees.... maybe that's your way in?
4 years passed! SpaceX has launched the falcon heavy several times and landed 3 falcon9 boosters at same time, two on land and the third on sea! And most recently they finally launched the dragon capsule with humans onboard and again safely landed the falcon 9 booster on sea! Go SpaceX! And go NASA!
When it said “What do you think will happen In another four years. I instantly thought of the launch to the ISS a few days ago from spacx Crazy how fast technology can improve.
