Doesn't Elon know how to attach sandbags to a Chinese weather balloon? Why always destroy everything? I would have expected a mission from the "First Nation" as depicted in this film or "The Spy Who Loved Me" when whole space shuttles and submarines were still being captured. During these days, a REAL stunt probably would have gotten more clicks than the alleged pictures of the landing on the moon or UK fantasies back then ;) :D :)
These days the most unrealistic part is those guys hiding behind the truck when it lifts off. They should be paste inside those suits; rockets are *LOUD*
Maye Musk to a friend: I am worried about young Elon. He keeps watching 007 movies, well not movies, just one movie. Actually it’s just one scene over and over again. I’m sure it’s a phase, I hope he grows out of it…
It's incredible how they involountarely predicted not only the reusability of what would have been the Falcon but most importantly, the Starship... and for the latter, EVEN the aluminium bodywork, a bellyflop manouver for re-entry (even if obviousely fictionally ending the straightening up at the peak altitude instead of the last moment) and incredibly, THE THREE CORE ROCKETS USED FOR THE LANDING CLUSTERED IN THE IDENTICAL WAY! Staggering. Just staggering!
The Boeing CST Starliner capsule jettisons the heat shield before landing while under its parachutes but deploys airbags moments before landing instead of using retro rockets. The Soyuz capsule fires retro rockets an instant before impact while under its parachutes. It's more of an explosion than rocket flames. This isn't anything like the what's depicted in the movie, though, that spacecraft uses no chutes. It is cool to see that sound technical idea in the movie. The closest we've come to this in real life is the SpaceX Dragon capsule. It was originally designed for the abort engines to double as landing engines. The heat shield wasn't mean to be jettisoned, though. The engines are buried in the side. They still are, but just not meant to be used for landing. NASA wanted parachutes and that's what they went with. One problem was the landing feet were meant to deploy through ports in the heat shield. That meant a risk the seams could fail during reentry. The 8 engines were designed to be multiply redundant but the possibility of failure was too uncomfortable to contemplate.
they didn't "hijack" them. they captured them and their crew in order to convince the ussr and usa to start a new world war and then take over the earth after the superpowers have annihalated eachother
If only Blofeld were a businessman rather than a thug. He could have cornered the fledgling satellite launch business four years before Elon Musk was even born. Of course, being a villain in a James Bond movie, it is his fate to be evil.

It's funny how we use to all sit around and watch movie scenes with rockets landing like you'd put a coke bottle down on a table. We'd all comment how unrealistic something like that would be because the space shuttle landed like a 737. We'll now it's routine business to do those "unrealistic" landings......only Musk can land his upright on a barge tossing about on the open ocean.
At the time there was the idea. During the Space Age of late 1950s and 1960s, there was plenty of reusable rocket designs. But they were costly. NASA SIMPLY WANTED TO ARCHIVE THEIR GOALS WITH THE MINIMAL MONEY OUTPUT. And they had not the tech we have today. Ok a Computing system brought us to the Moon back and foreward with a memory smaller then a smartphone, but THAT was the limit. Imagine if they had to install another program to have a reusable Moon Capsule... they had the tech. But the risks, the effort, the whole concept of reusable boosters was considered too costly. And after 1972, Congress money financed to NASA dropped to an insignificant fraction for the "political archivements via the space mission". Yes was possible. But money and tech was not enough. But luckely, alast Elon fund a way to bypass all these problems...
Who's here after the Rocket Lab Neutron Update

I remember thinking this was ridiculous when I was young, everyone knows rockets can't land like that! 30 years later and it's aged remarkably well.
Movies made it
Now spaceX mastered it.
I believed that, too. but when you're wrong you're wrong.
I'm sure people for years picked on the absurdity of this idea, then SpaceX came along LMAO!
Delta Clipper*
This design actually could had more potential then Starship. Smaller heat shield, and a payload fairing easier to release cargo in LEO.

Kinda funny the Russian spaceship got trapped inside another spaceship like one of those Russian dolls containing other Russian dolls.
Matryoshka
The 3 engine landing now real with StarShip
Ah yes, the Soviet Atlas
Dude I watched this while tripping on LSD and it was the perfect movie

When Elon Musk buys a island with a volcano we're in trouble.
Hahahaah deadpool
Not Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos.
@@jasons2023 Jeff bezos doesnt launch rockets.
Rocket lab brought me here.
The scott manley vid
Neutron
Lol you can see the wire holding up the rocket at he end. Imagine being the puppeteer yanking on a pulley to lower your cute little model rocket.

LOL
This scene is hilarious and at the same time very cool though
Is this a Bond movie or a Spacex livestream?
Space X stole this idea.
I remember that I was thinking as a kid the landing with a capsule in a vulcan will never works and now we have spacex
lol
@@matthewdavidjarvis6039 Come one, you _know_ Elon wants to... 😂
@@alistairwillock7266 Thats next!
This scene has aged very well
when I was a kid that thing scared me to death and I had a nightmare where all I saw was
^ ^
o
Starship may do something like this, but for space debris
Musk did it come true. Who the hell could beleave that...
1:06 Another capsule has been captured.
SpaceX is already doing this 😁

Capsule Stealer: "Starship, I am your Mother."
Russians said "WE CANT SEE ANYTHING... NAM NE VIDNO NICHEGO!!! " Was funny when I was kid... Though IMPREssive sure....
They could just say "Nam NICHEGO ne vidno" "We can't see anything". Whoever was incharge of the script, has made a BIG mistake.
Such an incredible scene
These guys predicted rocketlab neutro rocket
I wish Kerbal Space Program was this easy.
Before being jettisoned there is a heat shield covering the descent thrusters. Need to steal that idea, too.

If they have a spaceship that size, then why do they need to hijack space capsules?
Secret codes?
@ There's an off-the-wall, one-size-fits-all answer.

maybe thatselon mask got his ideas as a child watching it
everybody who read classic science fiction get similar ideas =)
I think in this movie Ernst Stavro was the Main role model for Musk or Bezos..
We need Space Force and Elon Musk more than ever!
Musk just had a rocket land like that
Landing vertically from orbit with lukewarm gas thrusters!
Love it

Love the old James Bond movies and the gadgets and technology.. Hate Daniel Craig's version
Smooth Operator ………❤……
the idea what spaceX is doing now, landing rockets... thought in 1967...

Now China space station has robotic arm that can snatch your satellite , Ha !
go blowfish
Better than spacex!
I came here to see better effects than the Space X ones

Bird 1 capsule recovery system
JUST SHOWING YOU IT WAS ALL DONE BEFORE A LONG TIME AGO
ELONS LOOKS LIKE NOT MUCH OF AN IMPROVEMENT SINCE THE 70s
that’s cause Elon is Ernst Stavo Blofeld
in real life… where is the real JB?
Watch old sci fi serials and 1950s movies, it was done long before 1967 (not 70s). Making it into reality is a tricky detail.
