    This game looks AMAZING. It's not just something where you randomly slap together stuff and get instant gratification. No, if you want to go to Venus in this game? You have to plan, plan, plan, plan, plan, plan, plan, PLAN and risk everything in order to get there, let alone land there. Nobody can hold your hand, nobody's going to help you. It's all about how skilled you are and how far that skill can take you. And the feeling of success after going there and back again? Beyond words.

    Jesus that scared the shit out of me when he hit the water at 30m/s. All that effort just to flop in the last 10 seconds of what was probably a 5-6 hour mission. Incredible fucking video.

    • @RobinsonLaneScaryNed

    • @Snubbs
      @Snubbs 8 лет назад +3

      +racergsxr1 well you can see really quickly at the end, when he hits the water, the UI disappears, similar to if the root part had been destroyed. Also, notice how the vessel that surfaces has none of the parts the vessel that landed did. Even if it was a rough landing and things were destroyed, at least a few parts should have survived to float back up to the surface with the capsule. I suspect the pod was destroyed at the end of the mission, but by the time you've actually gotten home and would easily be able to land via a quickload and parachute deploy edit, you're pretty well done anyway.

    • @eno2870
      @eno2870 8 лет назад +6

      +Gordon Rammstein Yeah, the end was edited. Not only is it not the same vessel coming back up out of the water, but the camera view jumps slightly and the mission timer resets back to zero. So, sadly.. they all died. Darn government cover ups!

      I believe the ascent from Venus was also edited. The teeny tiny final stage had a much lower delta V than that required to neutralize the relative velocity to the mothership. To be honest, after docking all the parts and making the long, slow burn to venus, i think i wouldn't really mind editing a few things in and out as well.

    Truly a great work. The amount of figuring out for weights and TWR and the associated gravities etc to figure the different crafts while also being able to match what was left to what was going to be needed. ie after all you had already done with stages and gravity assists etc to have figured it for the specific stages needed and then the final small burners to just have enough to get your return capsule into orbit to rendezvous with the return ship was amazing. Also, with a few of those "lengthwise" shots of the ship from near the body I thought the Kraken was going to show up and do a cancan on all your broken rocket bits. Some serious disco going on hehehe ;~) Liked and Subbed.

    • @maccollo
      @maccollo  5 лет назад +4

      The lander was tested ahead of the mission. I was not about to take on something like this without testing that part thoroughly beforehand. The testing lander worked flawlessly every time. However I somehow managed to screw it up by accidentally changing the size of the landing platform after finishing the design. I also accidentally screwed up the propellant balance on the boosters. You can see the in the video how this almost ruined the mission in multiple ways, like how things started to explode from heating during Venus EDL.

    math of window to planet transfer, colibration of transfer course between planet, Reentry maths, and much much much more, science.
    For those who play in KSP with FAR, and othar mods, that made this game even harder, and more realistic, this looks like a poem of science and math triumph.
    perhaps, this isn't posible to travel to Venus, the atmosphere is too density, and surface is molted, temrepture degree is from 230C to 470C, and weather is always unstable making landing a spacecraft is nearly impossible :(( and launch back, is totaly impossible. (wind speed is about 100m/s )

      +Verdiss Hardly. With temperatures about 450-500°C. Thats slightly more then TWICE what you use to bake a pizza. Pressure equaling that of water in a depth of 900m on earth.
      On the completely dark backside, cause it rotates very slowly, its very cold. Also there is no moon to reflect sunlight and make any light,
      Athmosphere is hell. No magnetic field as well. so unfiltered cosmic radiation. Closer to the sun.
      It rotates even slightly slower then it circles the sun So a venus day (and night) is longer then a venus year.
      There wont be a person on venus. It makes no sense to even try.
      There wont be terraforming. Youre better off trying your luck with some moons of the gas giants.
      Its very hard to imagine there will be even working ELECTRONICS on venus for any length of time.. The russians got a glimpse of venus before their probes burned to death or were squeezed to it. Only when they basically sent a frozen tank did it survive on the surface. For about 2 hours.
      Unmanned landing probes that may survive for months on the surface are planned again. in 10-15 years.
      Its a fascinating planet. But everything that makes it fascinating, makes it absoluetly impossible (and pointless) to land a person on its surface. Or even a permanent structure.
      Oh btw: As a keen amateur in KSP; What an amazing video/flight. Very very impressive. And beautiful.

      That actually surprised me too, but the shock heating doesn't really kick in until the pressure drops to a few atmospheres. I think it's because the atmospheric pressure is already so high that the relatively small increase in the shock wave doesn't result in any significant increase in temperature.
