Unreal. This is exactly what RUclips in 2024 should be. Mark is raising IQ's in kids and adults in an entertaining way with such ambition, its truly motivational. Imagine winning and going to watch the launch. Life changing

Thank you for this amazing beginner's guide to building a satellite as a civilian. You made the unfathomable seem approachable.
why’d you stop posting 6 years ago?
Very nice of you 🎉
I wanna 5$ too 😂
Very generous, but i think he soon get a lot from Google pixel for the product placement....

Bro casually just built a satellite and explained it like it was building legos...
yeah bros gonna go to mars like its nothing in 2060
ikr
bro hes going to built 50 exoplanets in a year or 2 bruh
About to say that, so true.

As a 21 yo computer science student who had a fascination for space science as a kid, this video was more entertaining than any of the 100s of informative videos/documentaries I've watched recently
Mark casually explains space engineering like it’s IKEA furniture. "Just add solar panels and a flywheel!"
ikr xD
compared to putting a vehicle on the surface of Mars, that satellite is probably very easy to make 😄
Жаль у нас в России нет икеи😊
"Mark casually explains space engineering like it’s IKEA furniture."
Uh, could you have chosen something other than IKEA.....😉
very true
My son is only 8 and you have no idea how much he loves watching your videos and how much he's learning. You're doing an amazing job sir
He's this generations Bill Nye

Ah finally! These are the Ikea instructions I've been missing all this time

How are you not into amateur radio, too?? Love your videos!
The fact that a squirrel pretty much has a satellite named after them is crazy!
We need a rewrite of Johnny Cash's "A Boy Named Sue" song to "A Girl Named Gus".
@@hisgross well you see mark first thought phat Gus was a boy and called her fat Gus but he noticed something and changed to phat Gus
Cops in NY have pushed squirrels too far
And well deserved
Power of social media and imagination!
I recently graduated college with my Aerospace Engineering degree, and this is exactly what we do in my university's NanoSat Lab. You perfectly explained everything at an introductory level better than I ever could. Bravo, Mark. I'm going to share this with all my layman friends to show them what its like in my world.
Congrats!
woah... despite being in the US, I've never actually had someone give me the Earth's radius in miles. I only ever see the number given in kilometers.
@@whatislifebro Are you trolling?? If not, can you explain why we have different seasons if the earth is not a globe
@@whatislifebro did you just watch this video where the earth is a globe?
Hi! Fellow NanoSat Lab colleague 👋🏻. I was there in 2021/2022!
As a high school astronomy teacher, I will be showing this to all of my classes and taking a selfie with each class. May have to combine them into 1 or 2 photos though.
Hope you get a bulk package of the patch
I hope you get their parents' permission before taking photos of their children and putting them on the internet
@@_Stormfather cry
@@pinkpanda3882 lol what? Why would I be crying? I'm neither the teacher potentially breaking the law, nor the child whose picture is being spread, nor the parent of that child. I was just offering some friendly advice.
@@_Stormfather most schools make parents sign a waiver saying if you want their child in a photo. If someone in his class doesn't want picture taken, then just don't be in the picture.
Mark, I just want to thank you. I'm almost 40 and have always been fascinated by science and particularly space. I know I'll never get to experience space, but your videos continue to foster that fascination for me at almost 40.
Others:- taking selfie on earth
Mark Rober:- taking selfie with earth
Technically every selfie you take outside is a selfie with earth, but kind of on macro setting...
every astronoaut takes selfies.litterally 24/7 live transmission from ISS

Mark is just running a "small" experiment before sending himself up there!
He already dropped an egg from space and this is the second experiment.
@SeanHodgins, did you have a part in this?
YESSSSSSSSS
waiting for the video: Today I goes to Mars
We all loved Phat Gus. This is a true memory to her.
🐿️🐿️🐿️
she is so cute
Bring phat Gus back
real the OGs must stand together XD
@@UrLocalAsian-x 🫶🏻
i come from a developing country, your videos are really beyond our imagination.We can't believe that an individual can create such things. You are a true creator
This is the best video you’ve ever made to me (except maybe the reaction to the Perseverance rover’s landing, that was priceless). Not only is this is a ‘simple’ yet super cool idea to get kids excited about space, you also go to the trouble to fully explain what goes into building, testing and launching a functioning satellite in an understandable way. I’ve been following SpaceX for years, so seeing their constant mission to decrease launch costs enable actual space missions by ‘everyday people’ like this one is amazing too. Huge props to you, your audience, your team and everyone else who made this possible! Go SAT GUS!
Hollo im turk
I just wanted to thank you for making Science so freaking cool that my two daughters love doing the build boxes. I realize now that I had Mr.Wizard and now they have you. You rule and I hope one day my girls and myself have the pleasure of meeting you.
This is excellent. As a former NASA structural dynamicist (the shaking to death part) this is the best description of vibration and dynamics I've seen. Awesome job @mark! :)
😅 si es un excelente trabajo 🐱
Hey Mark!:) I hope this comment finds you well. I am currently in my senior year of High School in my home country which is Hungary, wanting to study Mechatronical Engineering at SDU Denmark. In a few days I will be able to submit my application, and hoping to get accepted. Just wanted to say that you are one of the biggest reasons I chose this path, to become an engineer, and will be big inspiration of mine forever! Keep up the amazing work!
Having a part on Mars wasn't enough? ;P
Yupilydoo
bro you even commented on ryan tryhans video
@@Stefan2011-sGs haha I'm everywhere.
@@Stefan2011-sGs so?
🤣
Mark is the only person who can explain such complex nerdy things intuitively and with lot of fun. You are Amazing Mark 👏
Love this return to science over spectacle, by using the premise of absurd spectacle. Its a win win.
yes
Its only absurd imho... This dude is a genius, and he just made the most useless thing he could have for his intellect...
$$$$$ you have to sign up for crunchlabs for the selfie, this is just a money making scheme.
@@BrimstoneMoth lmao if you think Mark Rober "made" any part of this you're drowning in the koolaid
Be happy
Dude your literally a genuine genius. I don't think anyone else can say I taught Million people and counting how to build a satellite. Bravo sir🎉
this is what we envisioned social media would be like back in 1996.
amazing, inspiring, how to stories which not only instruct but show what's possible and challenge everyone to think bigger and make/create something of their own (and share their story).
Mark is the ultimate educator. He makes learning cool and fun.
@@whatislifebro The joke has run it's course, dude. Find new material.
I am in my late 20s. And I am just like wow ... great video, great production, great story and pacing.. Kids are lucky these days! Great job. And yes, I have learned a lot. Thanks
Danke!
A few years ago I watched Mark's first video about the squirrels, I had no idea that Gus is going to go that far😂
Edit: 1k likes🤯🤯
thanks guys
YEARS????
I would like this but, I don’t wanna break the 665
Phat Gus
Years is wild but i also did lol 😂
Who would have imagined squirrel obstacle courses would develop into space flight? 🤔
my mom works for Maxar as a flight controller, and she still loved watching your video and learned a few things, thanks for the fun times!
Is that a avali in your profile picture?
Eyyy awesome! And great avali design :D
I have a VR friend who works for Maxar, has a lot of fun working on very similar stuff to this video!
As a sophomore in college studying Mechanical Engineering, this was really cool to see another real-life application to the things I'm learning in classes! The nerd in me appreciates the more in-depth look at the engineering design process on a professional level :D
Also, I didn't realize Fusion had built-in FMEA/FEA tools, neato.
Mark is probably the best teacher I’ve ever seen. We need more of this!
The evolution of tech youtubers is amazing. 10-12 years ago the videos were quick tips and coolest build was something like tkor hydrogen fule cell or kipkays furnace build, or household hackers hover shoes. Now they're actual engineers sending selfie cams to space.
There is only 1 Mark Rober.
Well then you're in for surprise to know there's more YT channels with awesome engineering content!
How to flex without flexing about being an amazing engineer who worked at NASA and is wealthy enough to launch his own satellite!! Well done, Mark!! Congratulations on your own accomplishments and thank you for making STEM so much fun and interesting.
This is genuinely the best high level introduction to satellites I have ever seen and I’m an aerospace major. Bravo Mark
As someone who’s a space systems engineer, this is awesome
Holy cow, this is pretty impressive! It's just $30 to get a selfie from orbit. That's cool. The engineering on star tracking and resonant frequency for the structure is simple to Mark but impressive to everyone else.
You can think of this another way too: Just $30 to flash your image to any aliens riding in our solar orbit. 😆 Holy crap this would be an amazing send-off for any loved ones who have passed away.
Selfie of yourself with EARTH in the background 🤡
it's like getting someone to photoshop your selfie onto a stock image of Earth from space as the background.
And another 30 bucks😂
I work for Alaska Aerospace Corporation in Kodiak, AK, where we help clients launch their satellites into polar and elliptical orbits from Pacific Spaceport Complex-Alaska!!! I’m so excited you’re sharing about this amazing field 🚀
Been to Kodiak a few times, never realized they had a space port there! Need to go back!
How does one get a job position at a place like that? I’m in the Air Force rn looking for civilian careers
Watching Mark Rober videos always make me feel smart.
This is the most incredible example of an incredibly smart person making something that is incredibly complicated look incredibly easy. Awesome stuff.
I'm glad this video is actually talking about engineering that's a bit more complex. For a while it's been more about flashy results than interesting creations, with a bit of science thrown in seemingly as an afterthought.
This is legit the best Mark Rober video ever. So many awesome things at once!
We got:
Mark Rober
Space
Spaceflight
SpaceX
Google Pixel
Great animations
Great explanations
and a tutorial!
And phat gus
@@omarzx7394 ESPECIALLY phat gus
And a tutorial on how to build a spy satellite!
...Mark Robot. Hilarious!
When you revealed how the flywheels made the box spin, I literally yelled "Aha!" A literal "Aha" moment.
The living daylights... 😉
And more 🖖
I propose that a selfie of Gus be the first one we get to see. Great project, Mark.
Mark Rober has almost 60 million subscribers and I still think he’s underrated
Agree
real 😭
Согласен
totally

Two whole Mark Rober videos in one month? Yes Please!😀
For those of you wondering SATGUS stands for Satellite of a Gravity Unaffected Squirrel
🤣🤣🤣
That would be SOAGUS
@@Coloradoball_gooberia Acronyms dont include the words OF, THE and AND in the letters of the acronym
Ahh, scientists and their acronyms.
@@sixjhontongalamar979 Linguists take the rap for this one not scientists. They are just doing what they are told.

This is incredible and mind blowing! The way you simplify complex concepts is amazing. Truly inspiring!
So glad you mentioned your team. I'm thankful for engineering and engineers like Mark R.
Thank you for your contributions.
just bought my Christmas present to myself. thank you dude you're truly the G.O.A.T.! Can't wait to be the one doing this for others

Yep
First step being "design your creation in cad" feels very step 1 draw a circle, step 2 draw the rest of the owl.
lol yeah most people don't actually know that making that kind of thing in cad is very hard.
CAD to me always meant Cardboard Assisted Design, idk what Mark is on about with computer software and stuff xD
Absolutely love how you make advanced concepts so easy to grasp while doing something incredibly cool. It’s a rare talent to blend fun and education so seamlessly-amazing work!
First an egg, now a selfie. Actually insane mark!
Как же это великолепно...
Вы хорошие люди.
Спасибо и удачи в таких добрых,светлых делах...
I’m 19 and I still watch every video. I love this guy ever since I was 11 or 12 really great guy always makes me keep going. I’m now a computer science student and videos like these always just tap into my nerd and I feel that they also fueled that drive
What an amazing idea and accomplishment, Bravo, best of luck with your launch and the 3 year success with your satellite, from ireland🍀🇮🇪🤞❤️
Flat earthers gonna be very mad seeing this video
Take a picture of someone being flat earther. Take a selfie of him on this satellite. Land him the photo.
@@iamlostintime3343 Better have backups because we all know what's gonna happen.
Are they still exists?
Mark never fails to amaze us from his engineering skills.
After a great Thanksgiving I’m sitting on the toilet watching a Mark Rober video. Life is great.
I FINALLY understand resonance frequency, thank you!
20:02 "it's big enough to house a school bus... by the way, we will send a school bus into space in our next video"

"Please let this be a normal field trip"
@@LeyScar with the frizz? no way!
"Let's do spin wheel, which school will get a trip to space"
“Anyways, check out the satellite im about to launch into space” might be the biggest RUclipsr flex of all time. Check mate, Mr. Beast.
I remember my first selfie from space. I was just a kid that grew up in a middle class family and having worked in lawn care for a large portion of my life I have finally saved up to get my astronauts license. Those were the days.
This might be the coolest video I've watched this year. What an amazing feat of engineering you are so close to pulling off. Congrats on following through with your dreams, a true inspiration
what a happy kid 23:35
Mark all due respect but you’re not some every day civilian brother. You’re way more than that to millions of people.
I was looking for this comment
Maybe billions
Marrk, I don't know if you are reading this but you are no less than a legend. The way you teach the concepts at the same time keeping the videos captivating is pure genius.
12:44 bro foretold the future
😭

lol
Bro someone copied ur comment and got almost as many likes as u have
Flat earthers saying that the selfies are CGI coming
This is mind-blowing! The fact that you can take a selfie from space with Earth as the backdrop is like something out of a sci-fi movie. Incredible work!
best mark rober video by far-insane we can just casually find this on RUclips
15:15 ALL THAT 15 MINUTES WAS ONLY STEP FEAKING 1
And step 2 lol
alr lil bro clm urself
Well it’s literally rocket science what did you expect?
@henreereeman8529 lol
Someone send a picture of a flat earther to them lol
I also appreciate the impact Phat Gus made on this channel.
Hats off especially to the animators in this one! Great story telling as always.
Bro makes all of this and acts like we’re finna build that like a piece of cake
MrBeast casually getting hundreds of millions of views for throwing money at a screen while Mark over here is doing what is probably the coolest thing that has ever been done on RUclips and getting a couple million views…
If this video doesn’t get like 1Billion views in the first month then I don’t know what will through education on RUclips!
Mark this was such a cool video, keep going! 👍🔥🔥
Already 2.2 million in 12 hours!
@ w
That was awesome Mark, I use T-Mobile myself and I'm happy to see you it's helping you get into space
Thank you for keeping science on your channel, this is what we love you for, making science fun
I don't have words to say, I never saw that before.... U explains space engineering in just minutes.. Thnk u sir❤❤❤
Never knew one 25 minute video could contain so much knowledge. Love this video.
As a SpaceX employee, this gives me great pride
Currently interning at NASA GRC. I hear about teams and projects using CubeSats all the time! Super cool to see one used in a fun and educational way like this! Awesome video!
