Thank you for dodging spoilers. I still haven't gotten to sun station and I don't want to ruin the moment. (The only warp I know off is on ash twin and... welll... Caruso prickly).
The first time I was looking around the sun station. I was thoroughly looking around. The last thing for me to look at was the update panel. To my great fortune it kindly informed me that the station had 16 seconds until impact. I spent the entirety of my 16 seconds absorbing that message.
Lol I had 8 seconds. Read it multiple times as the game is paused when reading. Then I just ran to the other writings and tried to read everything before shit hit the fan. Of course I didn't make it in time and instead went back next loop.
Had a similar experience. Read the Messages, admired the view and read the panel last. Read that I only have 1:12 left. Panicked and tried to get back to the teleporter. Almost failed the jump back. Got to the teleporter and got back to Ash Twin. Look on the map and see the Sun Station sink into the sun.
The music being a darker remade version of the Brittle Hollow music is awesome too. I read that the composer wanted it to be the opposite of that music because the sun station goes against everything the Nomai believed in. It's brilliant.
Wheatley: Okay, I THINK this is a docking station! * crashes directly into the sun * Wheatley: Good news, that is NOT a docking station! So that's one mystery solved.
It took me so so many attempts to come to the conclusion that flying to the sun station isnt the intended way of getting there. I thought it was impossible. And yet here you are proving me wrong.
You can do it! It's actually pretty straightforward and suuuper consistent if you use orbital mechanics to do it. In real life, rockets use orbital mechanics to navigate space. Normally, the ship in the game has powerful enough engines that you can just straight up ignore orbital mechanics, but that close to the sun, your ship just isn't powerful enough for you to fully resist the sun's gravity, so you'll need to resort to orbital mechanics in order to land on the sun station. The idea is this (a video demo might be more descriptive, so if you want me to record it, I can record a landing): 1. At the start of a loop, get into the ship and go to your computer. In rumor mode, mark the sun station so that you can see where it is on your HUD 2. Take off and immediately fly to the right. Your ship is pointing north and you want to fly east 3. Once in space, look at the sun, then hold R and rotate your view counterclockwise by 90 degrees (so that the sun station will pass from the top of the screen to the bottom of the screen) 4. Click onto the sun to set it as target (you need to know your distance from the sun so that you don't crash into it) 5. When you lock onto the sun, you should see a blue circle (target marker) pop up over the sun. Look at the top tip of the circle. At this point, *only* use the W and S key to fly. Start flying forward. 6. You want to pay attention to your speed from the sun and the distance from the sun. Don't look away from the top tip of that circle. As you fly forward, try to keep your speed within 100 m/s and stop when you get to 3000 m above the sun (hold S until your speed is 0 m/s). 7. Keep staring at your speed and distance. Try to maintain 3000 m above the sun and try to keep your speed around 0 m/s (again, only use W and S to fly, and keep staring at the tip of the circle) 8. Within a minute or two, the sun station should come around the horizon. When that happens, drop your height to 2700 m and again, start hovering there. 9. The sun station will slowly creep up to you. When it's about 500 m away from you, drop your height again to 2500 m and start hovering. 10. At this point, look away from the tip of the circle and look directly at the sun station. Tap W to fly forward very slowly toward the sun station 11. Manually brake when you get close (ie, tap S until you stop moving) 12. At this point, you should be close enough to the sun station for you to be able to lock on to the doorway on the sun station. Lock on and hold spacebar to fully enter the sun station's orbit. 13. At this point, you can either unbuckle and jump out the ship, or eject yourself from the ship and immediately unbuckle 14. The moment you're free, start holding spacebar to cut your speed and match the sun station's speed 15. With luck, you haven't flown too far away. Look toward the doorway and tap forward to fly toward the doorway very slowly 16. At the doorway, the gravity panels will pick you up when you get close. Walk down the hallway a bit to unlock the achievement
I tried it maaany times with a keyboard and mouse and could not even get a stable orbit of the sun let alone one synced to the station. I switched to controller and got it on my first try. Didn't realise how much easier those tiny adjustments are with analogues but it made a massive difference.
At the beginning of the loop, go staight for the sun asap, align your ship with the path of the station and go full throttle towards the sun so that you'll graze the surface. Then you gotta find the right moment to descelerate so that you don't get slingshoted and you should be able to select the debris of the station and align speed with it. Beware of tidal forces when you exit the ship, first time I made it I go stuck on the corner of the ship and couldn't open the hatch. It's doable with KBM too.
yeah sooo, i never realised you could warp there so i ended up getting to the sun station really early from practicing to land on it and i never got the sad moment from realising the nomai didnt actually blow up the sun
Making this landing on a blind playthrough purely because I wasn't aware of the warp core was one of the most satisfying moments of any game I've played
The Sun Station has some of the best level design in the game, not too complex but incredibly atmospheric. It's also where the pieces of the story started clicking together in a genuine "oh shit, that's what this is all about?" moment for me. For how little time is spent there, it's an excellent snapshot of the strengths of the game overall.
When I first played Outer Wilds, this was one of the first things I did. I saw it in the map and was like "Yeah that looks cool. I wonder if you can land on it" 😂
My plan to reach the sun station was to first do a flyby, firing a probe on it so I could easily keep track of where it was while I tried to align myself with its orbit. After failing to land the probe on it multiple times, I decided to just fly at it at full force, and when I slammed into it I'd stick the probe on. So what if I bounced off and damaged the ship a little, I'd repair it and go to phase 2 of my plan. I successfully slam into the sun station, my ship breaks to pieces, and I pop out... perfectly in orbit with, and right next to, the sun station. Then I just flew myself right on inside.
My 2 favourite moments in the outer wilds were first when I found out that the Nomai were killed by the ghost matter inside the comet, and second when I reached the sun station and realised it never worked, and that the sun was just at the end of its natural life, there was no way of saving it, there was nothing to be done. Both moments made me feel so melancholic but in a weirdly life afirming sort of way.
I thought the objective of this game was to reach the Sun Station to turn it off and save the solar system.... imagine the emotions after reaching the sun station and learning the fate of it
I was an idiot and somehow didn't realize that the rock in the interloper was ruptured already, and I thought the rock ruptures when it crashes into the sun and thats what causes the supernova 2 minutes later
Same, I failed like 40 times before I finally landed on it, and by that time I'd figured out what's needed so it became a daily sport for me where I'd begin my day by doing a Sun landing and then move onto exploring other stuff 😂
I only played Outer Wilds in VR so you can imagine how scary doing this was. I didn't know about the teleporter until after I had done it this way and it took maybe 20 or more tries.
@@jan_Sanku I never really had bad motion sickness in VR and by the time I played Outer Wilds my VR legs would have been strong. The rotation of the planets while standing on them and looking at the stars still caused a slight discomfort though.
@@WhoTnT fair enough. I've been playing for 2 months, mostly vrchat. i can handle everything for hours, but stuff like driving, flying, etc still makes me pretty sick.
At some point, before I knew you’re supposed to teleport, I tried to land on it. For some reason, artificial gravity failed and I was thrown around my ship before I could leave. Assumed it was impossible.
I believe the artificial gravity "fails" just due to the overwhelming gravity of the sun at that distance, so to get out if the ship is jas to be upright
Tried it, nope. The gravity doesnt care about your ships orientation, just glues you to the sides and your suit thrusters are virtually useless against it.
I legit cheered when you finally lined up with the door and managed to land on the gravity floor !! What an amazing edit :D The music swelling up when you left the ship... Poetic cinema
Unknown Sunless City Nomai: "Who's been calculating launch trajectories to the Sun Station again?! You know we have a warp there, right???" Pye, probably: "Hypothesis: _Science isn't about Why, it's about Why Not!"_ Poke, screaming in terror in the passenger seat: "I'd really rather test the null hypothesis!"
Ahhh memories. I just keep picturing Joseph faceplanting for 3+ hours into the sun trying to land on the “landing platform” of the sun station. And me over here thinking back on this video “pff so easy. Once you’re in orbit it just requires micro adjustments to stay with the sun station and eject out.” But for real it’s the same every loop start so once you have the timing down to get into the suns orbit you can make a sun station landing for fun every time. I usually get distracted every loop like that somehow because I like to hit my cockpit into the roof of the station lol
In my silly little monkey brain during my first play through, I saw the sun station and thought “Yep, I need to go there.” After I SOMEHOW managed to land it, I was quite disappointed to see that I was about to die. When I eventually did find out the intended way, all I could say was “Oh…that makes MUCH more sense…”
I'm glad I'm not the only person who thought of this song as I was doing this trophy. I could hear this exact music even though it wasn't actually playing.
My favourite scene from my favourite movie combined with my favourite game? I think I’m in heaven... I had no idea of the teleporter so I flew there manually my first time. Took a few tries but my god did it feel good. I was understandably confused when the achievement popped up though. So many incredible memories with this game.
i admire your hability to control the ship. i may have tried for 2 weeks to get that achievement with no results, and here you are, docking like a master!
I did this twice. The first time, I didn't see any way in, and my ship wouldn't stay put anywhere, so I left. The second time, I had already been there so I knew the only way in was to exit your ship and fly in with the suit.
I remember me trying to get this achievement. I tried a lot of times, but failed. And when I finally got it, I went inside, read some Nomai texts, then casually walked out, found my ship, entered it, and left like it was no problem at all. Feldspar, I know you were proud at that moment.
That ending was perfect 😂 I was half expecting the whole loop reset memory sequence with the movie footage but that bit about being pulled it goes flawlessly with the rest.
THIS WAS CRAAAZYYYYYYY OMG I DIDN'T BREATHE UNTIL THE SUIT DETECTED OXYGEN DAKASDKAOPADSKS MY ANXIETY COULD NEVER congrats on the achievement doskdospkd so stressing(I love this game)
Super impressive in the canon game, where you're alone on the ship, but also REALLY hilarious in that Interstellar setting, in which you exit the ship alone and leave your crew in the ship to crash in the sun xD
This game is a timeless masterpiece. It gives you the chance of getting to anywhere by many different ways. Awesome video, btw. I always thought this attemp to entering the sun station needed this song jajajajaja
I usually hunt achievements just for fun but I gotta say, this was easily one of my most favourite achievements I have ever got of all time. That feeling you get when you're catching up to the sun station and having to do tiny movements before slingshotting yourself inside is just... *perfection* Outer Wilds is a masterpiece of rewarding player creativity and I really hope it gets some kind of sequel.
Just managed this myself recently and damn if it wasn't just as if not more thrilling than navigating the ending, especially when I bounced off the side and my toes were practically scraping the surface of the sun; I by some miracle managed to pull it together but definitely felt more terrifying than anglers, because you can't just drift past the sun, you have to fight it directly. :p
Remember how proud I felt when I managed to dock onto the sun station. I failed so many times but never gave up and at the end I actually made it. Had to then speedrun exploring it though since it was about to be sucked into the sun 😀
This is exactly how I felt when I did this. I wasn't able to get in though. I tried to position the ship's hatch right at the door so I could launch myself inside by just going out. However, as soon as I unbuckled, I went flying twords the ship wall and wasn't able to move. I didn't understand what was happening as my ship slowly lost orbit and flew into the sun. Later I realized that the sun's gravity is stronger than the artificial gravity made by the cristal inside my ship and since my ship was 'sideways', the way 'down' was not the ship floor but the back wall and the sun. Such a great game.
Why can I imagine an alternate timeline where you'd have to pull this stunt off after retrieving the warp core because the teleporter somehow got disabled from the Ash Twin to the Sun Station, and you need to charge up the warp core somehow from a decent energy source before heading to the Dark Bramble... only option is the Sun Station however that is about to get destroyed in the sun's expansion in a few minutes after you get the opportunity to retrieve the warp core.
First few successful attempts I got squished against the windshield without the ability to move towards the hatch as soon as I unbuckled. Had to look up some guides
I couldn't figure out how the teleporters worked other than "sometimes," so my first foray into the sun station was through orbital insertion. Even managed to get the achievement! .... 20 seconds before it fell into the sun.
The first time I tried, I managed to get to 'land' on the sun station. I wasn't far into the game, but I recognized the thing as a teleporter, and thought "oh, maybe I need to teleport inside," and left. When I discovered there was actually something important in there, I tried again, and in an hour of attempts, could not land on the damn thing again to save my life.
I’m just over here giggling like a maniac. Two of my favorite things in one: Outer Wilds and Interstellar. It’s hilarious how well this fits together. How long did this take to both edit and film?
I too tried the landing early on, failed and thought it was just not possible. it was until I beat the game that I saw there was an achievement for it and thought “wait, then it’s possible?”. Cue several tries later and I did it by ejecting from the cockpit into the entrance lol.
To land on the Sun station, you need to use the gravitational force of the sun, you can't resist to its strength. With enough practice, you will feel the wave, the wave will conduct you to the station.
Getting into a stable velocity next to the station is actually pretty easy for me, but for whatever reason, at some point I guess one of the updates, makes gravity all funky when I'm in my ship close to the sun, and every time I get close enough to enter the station, when I unbuckle physics keeps forcing my body in a corner of my ship where I can't move until my ship has conveniently drifted away too far from the station. Eventually I found out about the emergency eject button and just did that to shoot myself into the station entrance, so ya.
"it's necessary."
"You literally could just use the warp core on-"
*"It's necessary."*
Thank you for dodging spoilers. I still haven't gotten to sun station and I don't want to ruin the moment. (The only warp I know off is on ash twin and... welll... Caruso prickly).
I've been to the sun station 3 times, still don't know where this warp station people talk about is

Sun station is such a gut punch. It is a master stroke of story telling

congrats on the achievement doskdospkd so stressing(I love this game)
Exactly how I was feeling when doing it
How many times have you watched this?
Yes.
The madman did it
A top notch outer wilds piece, conveying the best feelings the game can give 🤩
i recently really got into outer wilds and GOD the timing on this is SO GOOD???? THIS IS HILARIOUS
"I am the man who grabs the Sun! Riding to Valhalla!!!"
This was honestly the exact same feeling i had while i was landing the ship on the sun station. I love this game so much!
Doing it YOURSELF with the interstellar soundtrack is really siiick, you guys should go and try it out.
This just made my day! Thank you for making this. The editing is perfect and helps relieve the frustrations of trying to do this myself.
Me when I didn't know about the teleporter 😂.
I knew the teleporter existed but couldn't figure out how to get to it so I was just like F it, I'm just gonna fly to it XD
@@AsquareM In my case, I tried many times with the spaceship but I couldn't. 😭
Super impressive in the canon game, where you're alone on the ship, but also REALLY hilarious in that Interstellar setting, in which you exit the ship alone and leave your crew in the ship to crash in the sun xD
As setting up my orbit around the sun to get into Sun Station, and making minute adjustments to align with it, I thought of exactly this.
Great video.
This game is a timeless masterpiece. It gives you the chance of getting to anywhere by many different ways.
Awesome video, btw. I always thought this attemp to entering the sun station needed this song jajajajaja
This is truly how I felt when trying to get to the sun station. This game is amazing.
That was way more fun the normal way.
NASA wants to know your location
This legit was hard, fell into the sun like 10 times.
I usually hunt achievements just for fun but I gotta say, this was easily one of my most favourite achievements I have ever got of all time. That feeling you get when you're catching up to the sun station and having to do tiny movements before slingshotting yourself inside is just...
*perfection*
Outer Wilds is a masterpiece of rewarding player creativity and I really hope it gets some kind of sequel.
What's even more impressive is that you did it using mouse and keyboard
I actually cannot play this game with a controller. I've tried. KB/M is just more natural to me except in racing games.
this is exactly how it feels...
Cool idea, Nicely edited with interstellar film 👍
and that's exactly how that felt!
When i did it i was hearing the music in my head
Just managed this myself recently and damn if it wasn't just as if not more thrilling than navigating the ending, especially when I bounced off the side and my toes were practically scraping the surface of the sun; I by some miracle managed to pull it together but definitely felt more terrifying than anglers, because you can't just drift past the sun, you have to fight it directly. :p
Remember how proud I felt when I managed to dock onto the sun station. I failed so many times but never gave up and at the end I actually made it. Had to then speedrun exploring it though since it was about to be sucked into the sun 😀
This was the hardest thing I’ve ever accomplished in video games.
You know it's a dying star when your ship that has WOOD outside it doesn't burn that close to the sun... haha...
This is exactly how I felt when I did this. I wasn't able to get in though. I tried to position the ship's hatch right at the door so I could launch myself inside by just going out. However, as soon as I unbuckled, I went flying twords the ship wall and wasn't able to move. I didn't understand what was happening as my ship slowly lost orbit and flew into the sun. Later I realized that the sun's gravity is stronger than the artificial gravity made by the cristal inside my ship and since my ship was 'sideways', the way 'down' was not the ship floor but the back wall and the sun. Such a great game.
Yeah you have to allign it so that the sun is below you when unbuckling from your seat so that you can still walk around your ship and leave
Why can I imagine an alternate timeline where you'd have to pull this stunt off after retrieving the warp core because the teleporter somehow got disabled from the Ash Twin to the Sun Station, and you need to charge up the warp core somehow from a decent energy source before heading to the Dark Bramble... only option is the Sun Station however that is about to get destroyed in the sun's expansion in a few minutes after you get the opportunity to retrieve the warp core.
That'd make your last run very intense and exciting, along with the final voyage music.
THIS VIDEO IS UNDERRATED
Best video on the internet
I swear, this is one of the hardest achievements in the game, took me a solid hour to do it.
That was so intense.
Damn....when editing done ri8♥️♥️♥️♥️ gave me chills while docking😅😅😅
😂🙌
First few successful attempts I got squished against the windshield without the ability to move towards the hatch as soon as I unbuckled. Had to look up some guides
I couldn't figure out how the teleporters worked other than "sometimes," so my first foray into the sun station was through orbital insertion.
Even managed to get the achievement!
....
20 seconds before it fell into the sun.
The first time I tried, I managed to get to 'land' on the sun station. I wasn't far into the game, but I recognized the thing as a teleporter, and thought "oh, maybe I need to teleport inside," and left. When I discovered there was actually something important in there, I tried again, and in an hour of attempts, could not land on the damn thing again to save my life.
I’m just over here giggling like a maniac. Two of my favorite things in one: Outer Wilds and Interstellar. It’s hilarious how well this fits together. How long did this take to both edit and film?
I thought that was not possible lol. Awesome
This gave me more chills than the actual movie scene. What an amazing edit!!!
I too tried the landing early on, failed and thought it was just not possible. it was until I beat the game that I saw there was an achievement for it and thought “wait, then it’s possible?”. Cue several tries later and I did it by ejecting from the cockpit into the entrance lol.
Oh god, its an achievement. Guess I'll have to try
Nothing else can surprise , editing well done ❤🔥✌
To land on the Sun station, you need to use the gravitational force of the sun, you can't resist to its strength. With enough practice, you will feel the wave, the wave will conduct you to the station.
Getting into a stable velocity next to the station is actually pretty easy for me, but for whatever reason, at some point I guess one of the updates, makes gravity all funky when I'm in my ship close to the sun, and every time I get close enough to enter the station, when I unbuckle physics keeps forcing my body in a corner of my ship where I can't move until my ship has conveniently drifted away too far from the station. Eventually I found out about the emergency eject button and just did that to shoot myself into the station entrance, so ya.
