woah there, that's one hell of a steep re entry angle. Normally the shuttle would have bled off the vast majority of its speed in the upper atmosphere, roughly the 40 km range in kip, to allow themselves to avoid overheating and to precisely line up with the runway
Just a few notes for next time. The shuttle is completely empty of fuel for the most part when returning. they use parachutes to slow down. The cargo bay doors only open in space because they are thin and can't handle the force of their own weight while in earths gravity. To open them in the hangar when being loaded they use a special jig that attaches to multiple points so that the doors aren't broken.
Also the approach attitude of the orbital vehicle is incorrect as well. Only the lower surface of the vehicle is directly attached to the reentry air stream. And the bow shock wave on the lower nose cone of the vehicle directs all of the heated air away from the upper face and forward windows of the Shuttle.
@Phaint its momentarily, I read somewhere, that biggest number any human experienced is around 250G. This is reached by F1 driver who crashed. He didnt had any disfunctions becouse of this. In terms of longer exposure, like burning engine, 5G can be bad for average human, ofc not for some1, who learn how to deal with it :)
real astronauts -dead kerbin astronauts- thug life ask why coz first of all almost all the items in ksp are re entry safe for a higher limit and aslo that you should re enter on the belly of ur shuttle
I congratulate you, friend ... you have done quite well ... it is a good approach, ... surely you will continue to improve. Maybe someday we'll shake hands ... a dear hug.
Not in the case of the space shuttle! The principle you describe is called an ablative heat shield, used in vehicles such as Apollo, Soyuz and other expendable capsules, which basically evaporates so that heat is moved away. On the other hand, the shuttle uses the thermal protection tiles which are made to be a) very temperature resistant so they can handle the heat of reentry by themselves, b) very bad at conducting heat, so the energy brought in won't reach the inner skin of the orbiter, and c) to radiate away the heat (which is why the tiles on the orbiter's underside are black)
The Shuttle should keep a high angle of attack while until slowing down to a safe threshold, never exposing unprotected parts to the hot plasma like seen in the video. You were still doing Mach 10+ as low as 8,000m (~22,0000 ft) in dense atmosphere, which is certainly well above the Shuttle's operational limits. Also, the Shuttle landing procedure is unpowered.
not all the surface was gonna get touched by the plasma. and that is NOT the American shuttle :P the video says "a shuttle" not "in the american shuttle" XP
I think the unrealistic thing here is that the kerbals are speaking to mission control while re-entering, there should be a "Radio blackout" during that time, but im sure the viewers would be bored without any sort of sound besides re-entry heat so i give back 1 point.
This showed a straight on approach all the way through reentry which is not accurate. The vehicle had to perform a series of steep S-shaped banking turns, each lasting several minutes, at up to 70 degrees of bank, while still maintaining a 40-degree angle of attack to dissipate speed (and also reduce reentry heating) - from mach 25 down to 215 mph at touchdown.
It doesn’t always keep a 40 degree angle of attack, the turning is to slow and drop altitude while the angle of attack help keep a constant speed, higher angle = more bleed lower angle = less bleed
How can you still be burning up in re entry and almost scraping the top of the mountains?! This fool went straight in, nose pitched down on a re-entry. That shit would burned a joke a seconds after such stupidity. This was funny af.
Everyone whinging about how this "isn't how it works in real life"... needs to re-evaluate said life. This is a game in which you build spacecraft to send little green aliens from a fictional planet on journeys around a fictional solar system... Of course it isn't like real life! Kerbin (the fictional planet of the Kerbals) is way smaller than Earth, but seems to have similar mass, so gravity works the same, the Mun (Kerbin's largest moon) is only about three Kerbin diameters away too... it's a GAME, designed to be fun... if it was like real life then it wouldn't be fun... all your spacecraft would crash and all your Kerbals would die because the only people capable of playing it properly would be those working in Aerospace companies for real...
I do a lot of space planes, taking up cargo to my space station and when reentering from like 300,000 km I usually keep my reentry corridor around 35,000 km to 40,000 km, and I’m usually upside with the nose pointing the planet and the belly of the jet exposed.
Its ksp, why are you all mad about the shuttle re entry being wrong? This is a game where crew can easily survive 50g re entries and parts gan take direct re entry heating.
What A real shuttle did for Reentry: A Space shuttles Reentry was really different then this, the first thing is that the shuttle would be tilted to 85- 80 degrees so it would only expose the heat shields on the bottom of the shuttle. As soon as the Reentry starts getting cooler, the shuttle would tilt to about 45 -40 degrees. It would then glide through the atmosphere till it started approaching the space center. It would then start gliding down to the runway and then touchdown on the runway. Finally, it would deploy parachutes on the back of the shuttle so it would slow it down to no velocity at all. The crew would then be recovered out of the shuttle.
the shuttle would not be tilted 85 degrees for reentry. they would land in mexico or the pacific instead if that were the case. they reentered with a 40 degree aoa. then when its done it'll just pitch down a bit and glide.
Chemiegamer Peter I understand that but with it being a space flight simulator game that was made by Squad you would think they would be a bit more accurate with the mathematics. Just my opinion.
@@mrbuddygene The Planet in ksp dont represent the earth. Its actually 600k meters in diameter. Its still a very accurate game but with its own physics. You can calculate every little maneuver manually with formulas, made specific for the game
This was the funniest shit I've seen all day. Angle of attack on re-entry was dreadful, the nose should have burned right off in the first minute! LOL. No rolls to control re-entry temperature on the wings. This was awesome. LOL
I was on a helicopter at about 125k feet and we saw a shuttle come through the atmosphere. It got red hot but the upper atmosphere was soo cold it cooled down
And why are the upper layers cooler (brizzzz), since they are the first to receive the rays? Even at the re-entry, the satellites or rocket remains descend on fire; so this was supposed to happen also with the infamous sun rays ... but not.😇 Is the heat down here having more to do with electromagnetic reactions involving the surface x rays, than the emissions from a "big furnace" suspended over our heads ...
I know very little about this type of thing, but still I have to wonder, shouldn't the shuttle be angled so the thermal protection shield takes the brunt of the heat?
Yes, I noticed in this video that he neglected to keep an aerobrake trajectory so that the heat shield could take the majority of the heat while at the same time landing on target, the real shuttle on reentry actually had a series of bank maneuvers but that is real complicated and I only do that for RSS.
Angle of attack is well too steep, cockpit begins to fry, it can be seen. In reality the orbiter would disintegrate before crew members could feel rising temperature. Besides of that, how can you fire SSMEs without ET ? Where do you get the fuel and oxidizer from ? And why would you do that, considering the airspeed is still high enough to ionize the air.
Kkkkkkkkk se fosse assim, o ônibus espacial entraria na atmosfera em pedaços! Nunca um ônibus espacial vai entrar na atmosfera com a ponta do bico encrinado para baixo!

And also: the shuttle never flew nukes to orbit or flew around kerbin

Why does everyone keep watching that damn video
so you watched how to land the space shuttle by Steve F whatever the hell was his surname
@@olegpetrovic i watched it before this video
With engines
Damn. That shuttle had a very bad day..
Everyone talking like he’s trying to recreate an actual shuttle landing
But he’s just showing us how he lands his own shuttle
Not the best angle to reenter the atmosphere tbh
Definitely. With you on that one.
U Hu hjj
But remember, this is ksp
Eaten By Black Hole is right
MyHobbyIsFishing Yeah shouldn’t the angle during reentry be nose up?
It's good to see that noble goals, such as the militarization of space with nukes, is a game option.
Don’t be a douche
Those are some tall ass mountains

This is the strangest re entry but I gotta say it was very unique and I liked it
why are there so many purists in the comments? it's in KSP which means a lot of things will be different than what the shuttle actually did.
I remember being so amazed by this game when I was younger and I wanted to play it
This is anything but a shuttle's reentry and landing
According to KSP it is; to accomplish this is quite a feat.
Pretty good for ksp

Ridicule
With that angle of re entry the crew members should have been cooked lol
The re entry sounds like when your up close to a roller coaster
Good Landing! Very well flown!
Not really, his reentry angle was too steep. Never go nose first during reentry, you leave that job for the heat shields
It is a crystal of modern science. great.
Amazing how latent heat protect the vehicle by sacrificing the tiles.

Rolling the orbiter is going to get you in fired. ;-)
It’s supposed to be a 40 degree angle so the shuttle won’t melt. What I’m saying is the shuttle can’t handle that much heat
Discovery fly in furnace???
Wow Shuttle Is Very Iconning to Atlantis
Bud the space shuttle uses the heat shields at the nose cone and bottom of the shuttle you can’t just nose dive at your target
Whoa.....awesome no doubt
Now the kerbals are dead due to burning
The altitude is way off on the re-entry burn, it needs to be a lot higher. Needs to start at least 80k meters (265k ft).
