8:50 I love that book. One of my favorite lines is, "It is also hypergolic with such things as cloth, wood, and test engineers", referring to a chlorine/fluorine hell compound.
I'm personally a fan of the di-methyl mercury story, though the poor sulphur chemists being banished to a building literally miles away because of the smells was a highlight too.
Scott Manley I don't know jack crap about space of aeronautics, but I love your videos and how you don't exaggerate or clickbait your thumbnails, and I genuinely learn something from your videos. :D
I freaking love "Ignition!" so much. It deserves all the shout-outs. Where else can you have test engineers listed among the things an oxidizer will instantly set ablaze? I really, really hope that example was deductive reasoning and not direct experience...
Jett Quasar soviet design tended to be so increadibly centralized that one single person was making the design decision, quality control, inspection procedures, launch conditions ect, it let them jump ahead with the r-7 and vostok but as rockets got more complicated this style became horrendously deficient as korolev's replacement was a raving alcoholic and had basically a competing space program within the soviet union. ironically this was the same thing that we did early on with vanguard and jupiter rocket programs but then we rightly recognized the need for one managable program and created NASA out of both and while it did have a director, design decisions were carried out by committee and time was taken for testing
In the beginning the US was like that but after the Apollo 1 disaster their quality control went way up. The N-1 suffered four failures in a row on a massive rocket, I don't think the American program would have survived such a disaster either.
@@jamiesmith3396 That's not a suborbital path. Basically, the way to do this is make a giant SSTO that makes it almost to the mun, separate it after putting perigee below Earth's surface, then have a tiny spacecraft that burns a bit extra and goes and orbits the moon. This is just SSTO to the mun but easier.
Ohh, Scott, drinking CubaLibre here, and watching your videos. Too drank myself to launch rockets in space, but pleased to watch your videos. Keep up and don't loose passion for the game.
I think he decided instead of wasting money on 2 systems, just go for the gusto on the big boy. Even if it isnt hauling 100 people at a time, that is still alot of cargo capacity.
Yeah, that seems to be the consensus on r/spacex. The slightly smaller 9-meter version of ITS will likely be the first thing SpaceX sends to Mars, followed by the full-scale version.
@@StrangeScaryNewEngland The true meaning of that text has been long forgotten, as it was written in the days of yonder. It now serves merely as a reminder of better days.
Woah, I stopped by the liquor store on my way home from work to grab some beers and decided to try the brew free or die IPA (no blood orange), then turn on some Scott Manley and see him drinking the same(ish) beer!
Scott, I was wondering if an orbital launch station would be efficient. You'd only have to get some payloads docked at the station and prepare a full launch. No atmospheric disadvantages. No equatorial disadvantages. No hard to reach mountaintops. And it could be re-usable.
You need to try some beers from my neck of the woods; you'd love anything from pfriem brewery here in Hood River, OR if you can find it. Their IPA is one of my favorites
@Scott Manley - when you are attaching something like Ullage motors, and the game does not do symmetry automatically when you change the Thrust level, just change it for one, then click it to de-attach, and re-attach it. now all symmetry counterparts will have the correct thrust level :)
Now all you need is enough Delta-V to get yourself back out of orbit. Maybe adding some RCS fuel? Although I know alot of real life satellites don't have a way back down to earth but if I made the rules I'd probably want every satellite equipped with a way to have them come back down so were not left with tons of space junk. But maybe that's just me ^^;
You were talking about Abe Lincoln and Mecha* Stalin... BEFORE you started drinking. Your certainly Scottish Mr Manley! Not to be confused with Mecca Stalin.
If one thing I pray for should ever happen let it be that the first transmission from mars is interrupted by the crew performing the spanish armada bit from monty python
Whoever thought it would be a good idea to provide a RealPlume/HotRockets/SmokeScreen/whatever exhaust preset where the particles leave the nozzle at walking pace has clearly their priorities month/day/year.
That would be an interesting idea. What I know is that you need only 8500 m/s for very high TWR launchers and about 9500 m/s for very low TWR. My personal record is 8400 m/s to orbit.
Very shallow ascent profile + high TWR rocket. Fly straight up to 50m/s, then start pitching down, it should look more or less like that: 50 m/s - pitch 89-90 350 m/s - pitch 62 1000 m/s - pitch 40 Next steps depends on TWR of your second stage. First stage TWR needs to be around 1.70 (surface). An example of such vehicle is my Saturn VB MLV used in my Ares Mission to Mars recreation.
The entire exercise involves applying the rocket equation; not all that hard to do so long as you understand the principles. As a *practical* matter, it's more difficult to make an efficient rocket on a tiny scale, but mathematically it's all just the same ol' minimum t/w, wet to dry mass and Isp.
Unrelated to video: I got 2 solar filters for my telescope, a cheapo sheet of what looks like Mylar that I creatively attached to the front of my scope with duct tape and cardboard and a much more professional looking (and expensive) one that has screws to hold it on. Why does the more expensive one make the sun look black and white while the cheapo one makes the sun a nice orange? I assume it has to do with the metals used in the filter but which is which? Also will you share your plans for the eclipse?
Hi Scott, would you possible provide us with a mods list for this install? Looks like you have some interesting side buttons and was intrigued by all the colorful dots in the map screen
alt 28klomerters up in stratosphere V=0 and I fire up a solid rocket dry and wet total mass +-20 kg , what's will the finial max alt before gravity =0 zeros my V velocity ,how high can the rock get ??
Hi I'm looking for a mod for ksp to show me more accurate information on my length, width and height of my crafts... Because for some reason when I'm using procedural wings it doesn't show accurate data... On my height etc... Don't know if there are more people with this problem... But would like to hear from you.. I am trying to scale real life aeroplanes in ksp and would help if there is more mods than engineer redux etc... I am doing pretty goof with my project on the B-29 superfortress with the Bell x-1 rocket plane.. And will show case it on a video in the near future.. I believe it is the best creation so far because we'll I have put some extreme effort into it
8:32 "can someone give me an idea of why this ignition document is of note?". What book is this? what name does it have? these questions were never answered xD Can someone please tell me?

Well, the shots would have been fired, but sadly the gun exploded... ;)

The Russian style of rocket development was very Kerbal. Build it, blow it up, and try again hopefully learning from your mistakes!
Same true for US rocket development, dude. No difference at all.
Add more boosters
Jett Quasar soviet design tended to be so increadibly centralized that one single person was making the design decision, quality control, inspection procedures, launch conditions ect, it let them jump ahead with the r-7 and vostok but as rockets got more complicated this style became horrendously deficient as korolev's replacement was a raving alcoholic and had basically a competing space program within the soviet union.

I love these episodes where Scott gets drunk then plays KSP. I don't drink, but these are still hilarious.
Scott singing Bohemian Rhapsody was not something I thought I needed in my life until today.
"Hey can you give me that N1, I heard it's good at exploding." I'm ded🤣🤣🤣
Just Scott randomly singing Bohemian Rhadophsy got me.
KSP challenge: Scott has to orbit the mun before his first stage hits the ground (first stage has to be in a suborbital path)
Stellar Labs I know I’m a bit late but that’s easy, just leave the first stage on the pad attached to the launch clamps.
@@jamiesmith3396 That's not a suborbital path. Basically, the way to do this is make a giant SSTO that makes it almost to the mun, separate it after putting perigee below Earth's surface, then have a tiny spacecraft that burns a bit extra and goes and orbits the moon.
This is just SSTO to the mun but easier.
SSTO lol
just make the first stage go into an escape trajectory
Woot! Back to Realism Overhaul!
Awesome video!! Thanks! Just watched your "smallest real rocket" video and was hoping you made this, sure enough haha
Ohh, Scott, drinking CubaLibre here, and watching your videos. Too drank myself to launch rockets in space, but pleased to watch your videos. Keep up and don't loose passion for the game.
voice for the non livestream part is hard to hear over the game
Yeah, I've started reading "Ignition!", and it was one of the best book tips I ever got. Hilarious, as Scott says :)
That thing was pulling 15 G's at the end! Love it :D
awwww, I was enjoying the conversation about Elon Musk.
Gabe Snooks yeah me too what all happened to red dragon? :(
It's been canceled. Especially since they're no longer developing powered landings for Dragon V2. Like Scott mentioned Musk says there's a better way.
I think he decided instead of wasting money on 2 systems, just go for the gusto on the big boy. Even if it isnt hauling 100 people at a time, that is still alot of cargo capacity.

12:59 that deep "thump" just became my favorite sound
What happened at around 13:00?
Either your voice became quieter or KSP got louder.
Either way, it became harder to listen.
from 13:00 onwards, it was "old" scott narrating. :D
old footage
Game got louder because I forgot to add a limiter to game audio.

You would just wait, as the orbits decay. Provided they are low enough anyway.

"hey give me that N1, I hear it's pretty good at exploding"
Oh no he didn't!
I think he should make a stock aircraft carrier and a non stock plane for it
Nice vid
Can you do a video about calculating the minimum energy / delta-v needed to get into orbit?
That would be an interesting idea. What I know is that you need only 8500 m/s for very high TWR launchers and about 9500 m/s for very low TWR. My personal record is 8400 m/s to orbit.
How? What sort of launch profile are you using to get that low del v to orbit?
Very shallow ascent profile + high TWR rocket. Fly straight up to 50m/s, then start pitching down, it should look more or less like that:
50 m/s - pitch 89-90
350 m/s - pitch 62
1000 m/s - pitch 40
Next steps depends on TWR of your second stage.
First stage TWR needs to be around 1.70 (surface). An example of such vehicle is my Saturn VB MLV used in my Ares Mission to Mars recreation.
That's a tricky optimisation problem. I think you need variational Lagrange multipliers and numerical integration.
winged love your videos mate.
Scott Manley, I was playing Kerbal and wondering how radiator working in vacuum space, how efficient it can be? Thanks!
It not about size, it's how you stick it toward space and light her up

Have you made any videos about launching from high altitude balloons to cut down on drag an fuel costs?
Check Scott's video "Does Launching Rockets From A Mountain Really Help?" from last week. It basically answers that question.
I thought it was a big rocket, until I saw that nose cone, was that the .625 stick cone on the boosters?
