I know this is 2 years old but how cool is it that a CEO can talk you through the ENTIRE process to prepare, stage and launch a rocket to the SUN. Tory Bruno is the MAN!!!
Watch the factory tour video if you haven't already. You will respect tory even more. He knows all the manufacturing details as well. Really really smart, down to earth guy.
No, he's simply a liar and a deceiver. All rockets are simply helium-filled dirigibles that go up 20 miles, bank 90°, then fall into ocean graveyards. Nothing ever goes to "space."
i had to do a double take and go back to that. I couldnt believe it. "Did he just say Kerbal Space?" Love it! Can just imagine Tory throwing his cowboy hat down in a fit of rage as Jeb is trapped in orbit around the mun. We've all been there. haha.
I feel you, they're three minutes in and t straight up nerding out in the most delightfully unfiltered way. Don't get me wrong, I love things slowed down and broken down to make them easy to understand and keep up with. It is far less common in the RUclips era to have depth without overly academic pacing, very refreshing... Gets me all excited (Wow, I'm such a Nerd).
He's actually pretty active on Reddit and does take time ever so often to answer questions at /r/ula. I am huge SpaceX fan but I really think Tory is major class act.
I love how impressed Bruno is whith your knowledge and lingo...even when yall toured the assembly building he was grinning nonstop. Thats why he picked you for these priveledges and guided tours of his babbies...good job
Luiz Eduardo Carneiro I didn’t realise this was extended either! Just felt like a great video! The passion that Tory Bruno shows is so inspiring. Clearly a guy that knows his stuff too. Would be great to get a pint with and just listen to 🍻
Me: I've played KSP so much I think I have a pretty good understanding of how rockets and orbital dynamics -- Tory: There are people whose entire careers are how liquids slosh around a tank in zero G. Me: Nvm.
You have zero understanding of rockets and orbital dynamics. You just think you do. No, he's simply a liar and a deceiver. All rockets are simply helium-filled dirigibles that go up 20 miles, bank 90°, then fall into ocean graveyards. Nothing ever goes to "space."

Destin, aw man. Two things stood out: That you busted your hump to create this channel, which resulted in Tory spending this time with you within _hat_falling_ distance of a rocket. And the other: that you did all of the work to provide us this incredible interview. I'd say "keep being awesome," but you don't need me too. You've so very clearly got this.
It’s cool to listen to someone who loves what they do as much as it’s apparent he does - I didn’t understand much of what he said, but it was so engaging to watch him enjoy telling the story. Tory seems like a pretty cool and humble guy. As a CEO I can imagine he could have been spending this time with other executives and shareholders, or media outlets that may have used a few seconds of footage on the 6 o’clock news. I get there sense that spending the time with you - someone who understands and appreciates the magnitude of this work - was exactly where he wanted to be. Pretty cool opportunity.
I feel the same way. I have a degree in Marketing - pretty far from rocket engineering but hey, always good to have a hobby/interest where the available knowledge seems endless. Thanks for an amazing video!
This is the kind of achievement that the American public has become apathetic about. We've taken for granted the human effort that is involved in such a complex operation.

Sloshologist, rocket insulation, fuel starvation, I've learned so much in the past 30 minutes. This is by far my favorite RUclips videos of all time! Thank you all who put the time and effort to make this!

Dude! I'm so stoked to see this video. It brings back a lot of memories. My company, Jered LLC, in Brunswick, GA, built the launch table that rocket sits on and a lot of pieces to that building as well. It's great to see it in actual use. I wish you could have gotten video of the table itself, but what you did get is great. Sorry for bragging, but I put a lot of hours in on that job. It was my life for almost a year. Thanks again.
So Tory's first rocket was essentially making his own single-base propellant rockets out of nitroglycerine soaked wax paper scraps packed into an iron pipe. He just got a LOT cooler.
Ok, my dad and granddad let me do a lot as a kid. I was using belt sanders, circular saws, pneumatic chisels, etc. when I was that age. But I'm sure they wouldn't have let me make dynamite powered rockets... not more than one anyway, lol!
My first rocket was in an aluminum tube using an in-flight mixing system that was interesting but could never be used to transport anything, not even a parachute. The fuel mixtures were made from house hold cleaners in shot glasses, sealed with hose adapters just the right size to fit the glasses, silicon fish tank sealant and metal strap. They used acceleration to pull them into the mixing chamber and turbulence to accelerate the mixing process once it got a kick. Flew a couple hundred feet upward until boom. That's what got me interested in chemistry and rocketry. Got to love how a bored kid with access to things their parents would rather they never touch leads to genuine interest in amazing new sciences.
I have been a contractor at the ULA facility in Harlingen, TX for several years. I am the assistant to the artist, Dennis Dubose, who has been hand painting the logos on the Atlas V payload fairings for a couple of decades. That program is being phased out. We are currently working on the last one that will ever be produced. I have had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Bruno on a couple of occasions. Very approachable and down to earth.
The part about Tory being responsive on Twitter, I can vouch for that; A couple of years back, I was writing a business case on orbital fuel depots and needed a price estimate for the ACES upper stage, and he answered my question on Twitter within a couple of hours, really awesome!
Tory Bruno, wow what amazing man, genius AND a swell fellow for giving you that special treat of a tour. His wife is special lady as well. I'm jealous.
Tory is so cool. You can see in his face how he not only loves his "job", but he also loves to share everything about it with others. Whether it be with his wife (another rocket scientist) or with us the viewer, he never once seemed to be any other than humble and willing to share what he knows with us. Thank you Destin for introducing us to Tory and Thank you Tory for sharing.
Anybody wondering why America remains the world's real "superpower", just watch this wonderful interview with a really, really impressive engineer, leader and good man. Wonderful, just wonderful, to watch and enjoy. (I'm not American ;)
I love that Tory followed his passion and continued on this path. He didn't do it out of greed or money - he did it because this is his love! Much respect.
I was just contemplating how far "Smarter Everyday" has come since I became aware of it "back in the day"...I'm including you personally, Destin. You've gone from flipping cats upside down in slow motion in your backyard, to interviewing a sitting President of the United States, to being allowed to pick the brain of Tory Bruno while standing on the ledge of the launch building itself! Congratulations to you, Sir!
Thank you for your commitment and creativity. May God bless you and yours with a very long life here on earth. I hope you will do more to educate our children toward excellence. I’m sure God and his only son, Jesus Christ are smiling right now. We’re all proud and happy for you. I look forward to the day when we have political leaders and parties with your integrity and courage! May God bless you and the USA!
I gotta say I didn't really understand what all was happening, but it's an absolutely joy watching someone talk about things they're passionate about, and I see that in both Destin and Tory here. This is a good video.
Love this video. I actually work for the company that builds the umbilical lines that connect the rocket to the tower for fueling. It's amazing to see the rocket from the prospective of the tower.
I've watched this vid a few times now over the years. I always come back to the same few seconds where Destin expresses his gratitude for being in that spot at that time. Hostly inspires me to work harder. Thanks Destin.
This has to be my hands down favorite video you have ever done. TOTALLY jealous. Before the building backed out I wanted to just reach out and touch the launch vehicle. Awesome video!!!
the humbleness from both Tori and Destin, considering the amount of knowledge they both have, is awesome. I love listening to people talk about things they're passionate about.
For a man like me who been in business finance his whole Life, this such a intellectual adventure to subjects I have never encountered!! I relish the explanations in terms that a novice can understand!!! Keep these videos coming!
Literally in awe of Tory and his wife. Not only because of the sheer genius factor but the guy seems about as down to earth (pun intended) as my best friend that runs a backhoe. You run a brilliant channel man. Thank you man.
Thank You for posting this whole line of video. Geeks and Nerds Rule!!! And please let Tory Bruno know that this is the kind of stuff the 8 year old within me lives for and I'm 62 (and a half) today.
Destin......at 25:30.....is that the feeling where the moment is so big and so intense that you have that knot in your throat and you almost feel like you want to cry but its not cry but its something; an overwhelming sense of emotion that your brain and body does not know how to express? Almost like a feeling of pride and honor but far far more intense? If so, I have had similar moments as well; and all with rockets. :-) One of the most intense was in 1997 when I was part of a launch group at Wallops Island for a demonstration flight with Lockheed, USAF and a few other groups. It was intense to even be there let alone be a part of it. I can only hope to be in a similar spot as you are now, one day. Thank you for bringing this to us, from one engineer to another.
Very cool, wish I'd thought of going into the space business, when I was a high school lad, we managed to launch a small payload 4 miles high. Had we staged our liquid propellant rocket and our solid propellant rocket we could have done much better than 4 miles. Rocket "safety officer" meaning Dad, did not permit us to go any higher. Not after the NY State police showed up after we launched one of our high powered amateur rockets out over Lake Ontario. Dad lost his nerve to push the envelope. The police were not wise to what we haddone as they responded to a citizen complaint that saw a fireball heading out over the lake moving at high speed and they also heard the rocket breaking the sound barrier as the thrust tapered off close to burnout. We were using spun fiberglass and spun carbon fiber tubing and graphite ceramic nozzles in 1969 long before carbon fiber was as common as today. A neighbor was an engineer for Spaulding Fibre in Western NY and we had bits and pieces tubing to our specs and tech data on their experimental tubing. Low carbon steel had been our material, much safer with composites than steel and easier to work with, pouring 2 part epoxy resins and inserting carbon/ceramic nozzles. Our liquid fuel rocket had a stainless steel un-cooled combustion chamber and nozzle and the tanks were made of aluminium and pressurized with dry ice. The oxidizer was nitric acid and the fuel was an 80/20 mix of turpentine and furfuryl alcohol. Static tested a couple of times to find minimum furfuryl that gave reliable ignition, flown once, the parachute failed. The Isp of about 240 seconds only a little higher than our solid propellants about 220 seconds. Great fun, I did the math and design, my shop skilled buddy did the machining with the help of his shop teacher. Great fun ... learned a lot. Neighbor on one side of us worked for the fibre company and on the other side of my parents house another engineer for Bell Aerospace and assigned to the RM-81 Agena B in the 1960's. I had plenty of expert help, learned how to do stress / strain calculations along with Algebra 2 and Trig for the NY Reagents exam. If anything school math was neglected during a wild construction project. I still crammed and passed the reagents at the end of the school year. A month after school let out Armstrong landed on the Moon, I felt let down, I know how the Soviets must have felt we both lost the space race.
I've read your story this is the third time btw anyway i just want to say thanks for sharing it with us and that i wish i had friends and peers who could have done something so epic 👍
A knowledgeable, enthusiastic CEO, talking to and explaining things to a knowledgeable and enthusiastic"audience". I could listen to this for hours, it is so captivating. Makes me wish I had my thirst for knowledge and learning when I was younger.
Tory Bruno is brilliant. He explains the technology so well for those who are not really up with rocketry. He’s a great advertisement for the space program.
Probably one of my favorite episodes from either channel. I was constantly smiling because both Destin and Tory love what they do and make it so easy to understand to someone who knows nothing about rockets.
Destin...Probably the best RUclips Series I have seen with Mr. Bruno. All the ULA stuff has been incredible. I FINALLY got to watch the whole series the last couple of days. Thanks for doing this.
I also really like the dude from Curious Droid. Although I'm not sure he's on the same level as the rest of these people he is entertaining to watch and quite informative.
I was just thinking that I would love to see a vid, or series even, where Destin explains something super technical about rockets and then Amy (Vintage Space) explains how it came about historically. How neat would that be?
thank you so much for the second channel footage! It was just totally awesome to see all of that together uncut and if you have any more, that would be awesome too!
Absolutely amazing. You would think a CEO of a rocket plant would be standoffish and think he thought he was better than everyone. This man did not have to do what he. It’s people like him that make small kids dream big, because he’s not hiding anything from them and they see how friendly of a person someone in his position can be. I actually want to thank you for taking your time to show the world what you do at that facility. Pretty much step by step showed every aspect of the Rockets they make. Kids love rockets & I imagine you’ve made several happy because of this video. I know some plants can’t do that thorough of an interview because of the competitors and secrets and so forth but if more people and CEOs of companies would do what this gentleman here has done it will open the eyes of so many youngsters and even teenagers. Thank you again Tory for Sharing all with everyone and thank you Destin for making the video. You did an awesome job thank you.
The discussion you guys were having near the end of the video about tank slosh was very interesting to me because I happened across some documentation online sometime in the past year pertaining to the ullage motors for the Saturn V. There is also video on RUclips showing an internal view of an LH2 tank as the J2 motor fires. It's just really interesting stuff to me.
I had to pause like 500 times to just look at some of the scenes. Tory routinely answers fans on twitter, and its so cool to see how down to earth he is with you. Thanks for showing this my dude.
YO Tory is an amazing man, reminds me of my grandfather big chemical Engineer, John Rajoc. i spell the last name wrong every time, my grandfather helped design the heat shields that they use to reenter the earths atmosphere!
Glad I found this site! The videos so educational and enjoyable. I have supplied sensors and components with most of these companies in the space program for nearly 40 years and this is great. Keep up the great work😉
lol, im actually impressed that you can hold that big camera at the perfect angle for that whole walk. Awesome video Destin! Also, never heard of Kerbal Space Program. Totally buying this to play with my kids.
It's a little thing, but I think my favorite moment is the guy in the "Safety and Quality" shirt at 11:19 explaining that he's with safety and quality without batting an eye.
Absolutely the best rocket video I have seen on You Tube. I am not an engineer and was lost quickly with the conversations they were having. For a CEO of the company to be as laid back, genuine, hospitable, and genuinely open to this interview is amazing. I live in Orlando and we see the launches all the time. Thanks to Dustin and Tory for a great insight to the process.
Destin, this is without a doubt the most awesome video I have ever seen. The way you film made me feel like I was there, and that was just unreal. Thank you so much for doing this.
Wow, what an episode! Tory reminds me of a brilliant little kid with that spark and passion. A big thank you to everyone. This is how civilization advances and we all get smarter. The future looks bright... and fast!
I CRIED INSIDE WITH YOU WHEN YOU REFLECTED ON BEING WHERE YOU WERE . EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE INVOLVED IS IN THIS OPERATION IS BREATHTAKING . THANK YOU FOR THE KNOWLEDGE AND EMOTIONS.
I can read HAPPYNESS on your face, at the end, man! Not only smarter, but greater every day! Your channel is in the positive side of You Tube! YOU give value to RUclips!
Fantastic channel. As a child of the 70's, I always wanted a career in Space / Rocketry. Sadly I ended up in IT, However having just binge watched your entire channel while on lockdown, it was fascinating. I could listen to Tory all day. Hoping my children enjoy watching this as much as I did - Thankyou
So awesome Destin. A great CEO taking time to present his passion. My brother in-law is an aerospace 'eer for ULA working on the Altas (thermodynamics). I'm patiently waiting for a launch invite!
I have watched a lot of launches in my life never in mind I would have guessed about the problem of fuel viscosity and fuel in 0 g to funnel into to the engine This is some high behind the line access footage 😎
Man this is so awesome, just love listening to passionate, brilliant, approachable people explaining things. He was so patient with every question, and provided great answers. Gotta say I teamed up bit when his wife was talking the kids and her father. True, proud Americans. My faith in America is somewhat restored...
Rocket science - it's just like plumbing except you have to use the lightest weight parts possible, your fluid is cryogenically cooled and any leaks result in an explosion.

Because he is passionate about what he is doing, not about making more money.

95%? Man you need to attend a school.

Think of my frustration, I understood it all, but don't have a chance to work there.

EXCELLENT work Destin👍🏻👍🏻🍻
Can we get one of those "delta heavy pins" like Tory has on his lapel?
Wordsnwood (Art Mulder) oh those things are awesome!

It's available on launchpins

He also sends out birthday gifts if you mention your birthday to him on Twitter!
Hey Destin! um I think a bit of video is looped around 9:40
Yeah small loop, got confused ._.
You're in the matrix, it's all a lie, earth is flat ... Shhhhhh ....

I was just contemplating how far "Smarter Everyday" has come since I became aware of it "back in the day"...I'm including you personally, Destin. You've gone from flipping cats upside down in slow motion in your backyard, to interviewing a sitting President of the United States, to being allowed to pick the brain of Tory Bruno while standing on the ledge of the launch building itself! Congratulations to you, Sir!
AND WE GET TO BE PART OF IT .
I had this exact same thought as they were walking up to the rocket and Tory said he was a subscriber! self: :"I bet he's seen the cat flipping video"
Thank you for your commitment and creativity. May God bless you and yours with a very long life here on earth. I hope you will do more to educate our children toward excellence. I’m sure God and his only son, Jesus Christ are smiling right now. We’re all proud and happy for you. I look forward to the day when we have political leaders and parties with your integrity and courage! May God bless you and the USA!
I gotta say I didn't really understand what all was happening, but it's an absolutely joy watching someone talk about things they're passionate about, and I see that in both Destin and Tory here. This is a good video.
Love this video. I actually work for the company that builds the umbilical lines that connect the rocket to the tower for fueling.
It's amazing to see the rocket from the prospective of the tower.
keep makin the good ones, Sir!
I've watched this vid a few times now over the years.
I always come back to the same few seconds where Destin expresses his gratitude for being in that spot at that time.
Hostly inspires me to work harder.
Thanks Destin.
This has to be my hands down favorite video you have ever done. TOTALLY jealous. Before the building backed out I wanted to just reach out and touch the launch vehicle. Awesome video!!!
the humbleness from both Tori and Destin, considering the amount of knowledge they both have, is awesome. I love listening to people talk about things they're passionate about.
I got all choked up. Rockets make me cry with joy.
Destin, thank you for being so relatable. I imagine I can feel how you must feel.
Yes. It's the obvious joy & enthusiasm they both have for rocketry, that does it.
Along with the significance of the mission.
For a man like me who been in business finance his whole Life, this such a intellectual adventure to subjects I have never encountered!!
I relish the explanations in terms that a novice can understand!!! Keep these videos coming!
I like how you can watch destin's brain just start to backflip as Tony explains mechanics
Literally in awe of Tory and his wife. Not only because of the sheer genius factor but the guy seems about as down to earth (pun intended) as my best friend that runs a backhoe. You run a brilliant channel man. Thank you man.
Amazing, first CEO that I know who knows exactly every step and procedures on his company. Awesome .more power to you. no pun intended
I can't get over just how humble and nice Tory is. What an opportunity!
Is it bad to be jealous?! what a tremendous opportunity. Thanks for the video with the whole interview!
That CEO is a Fantastic Human Being , I had Goosebumps
Thank You for posting this whole line of video. Geeks and Nerds Rule!!!
And please let Tory Bruno know that this is the kind of stuff the 8 year old within me lives for and I'm 62 (and a half) today.
That was possibly my favorite video yet. What a great opportunity and experience. Thanks for sharing it Destin!
Destin......at 25:30.....is that the feeling where the moment is so big and so intense that you have that knot in your throat and you almost feel like you want to cry but its not cry but its something; an overwhelming sense of emotion that your brain and body does not know how to express? Almost like a feeling of pride and honor but far far more intense?
If so, I have had similar moments as well; and all with rockets. :-) One of the most intense was in 1997 when I was part of a launch group at Wallops Island for a demonstration flight with Lockheed, USAF and a few other groups. It was intense to even be there let alone be a part of it.
I can only hope to be in a similar spot as you are now, one day. Thank you for bringing this to us, from one engineer to another.
Brian Streufert you sir, are saying so right!!!
So nice
Thank you Destin and Tory for this video! Tory is a rocket scientist, CEO of the company and a sweet person, Amazing,
Very cool, wish I'd thought of going into the space business, when I was a high school lad, we managed to launch a small payload 4 miles high. Had we staged our liquid propellant rocket and our solid propellant rocket we could have done much better than 4 miles. Rocket "safety officer" meaning Dad, did not permit us to go any higher. Not after the NY State police showed up after we launched one of our high powered amateur rockets out over Lake Ontario. Dad lost his nerve to push the envelope. The police were not wise to what we haddone as they responded to a citizen complaint that saw a fireball heading out over the lake moving at high speed and they also heard the rocket breaking the sound barrier as the thrust tapered off close to burnout. We were using spun fiberglass and spun carbon fiber tubing and graphite ceramic nozzles in 1969 long before carbon fiber was as common as today. A neighbor was an engineer for Spaulding Fibre in Western NY and we had bits and pieces tubing to our specs and tech data on their experimental tubing. Low carbon steel had been our material, much safer with composites than steel and easier to work with, pouring 2 part epoxy resins and inserting carbon/ceramic nozzles. Our liquid fuel rocket had a stainless steel un-cooled combustion chamber and nozzle and the tanks were made of aluminium and pressurized with dry ice. The oxidizer was nitric acid and the fuel was an 80/20 mix of turpentine and furfuryl alcohol. Static tested a couple of times to find minimum furfuryl that gave reliable ignition, flown once, the parachute failed. The Isp of about 240 seconds only a little higher than our solid propellants about 220 seconds. Great fun, I did the math and design, my shop skilled buddy did the machining with the help of his shop teacher. Great fun ... learned a lot. Neighbor on one side of us worked for the fibre company and on the other side of my parents house another engineer for Bell Aerospace and assigned to the RM-81 Agena B in the 1960's. I had plenty of expert help, learned how to do stress / strain calculations along with Algebra 2 and Trig for the NY Reagents exam. If anything school math was neglected during a wild construction project. I still crammed and passed the reagents at the end of the school year. A month after school let out Armstrong landed on the Moon, I felt let down, I know how the Soviets must have felt we both lost the space race.
I've read your story this is the third time btw anyway i just want to say thanks for sharing it with us and that i wish i had friends and peers who could have done something so epic 👍
You, sir, deserve an Oscar.
A knowledgeable, enthusiastic CEO, talking to and explaining things to a knowledgeable and enthusiastic"audience". I could listen to this for hours, it is so captivating. Makes me wish I had my thirst for knowledge and learning when I was younger.
Tory Bruno is brilliant. He explains the technology so well for those who are not really up with rocketry. He’s a great advertisement for the space program.
Probably one of my favorite episodes from either channel. I was constantly smiling because both Destin and Tory love what they do and make it so easy to understand to someone who knows nothing about rockets.
I've watched 2 videos with Tory in them and he seems like he would actually know his employees first names good on you man not many bosses like that
Destin...Probably the best RUclips Series I have seen with Mr. Bruno. All the ULA stuff has been incredible. I FINALLY got to watch the whole series the last couple of days. Thanks for doing this.
I 'random subscriber' hereby formerly request a collaboration video between starter everyday and Scott Manley .
I second that!
I also really like the dude from Curious Droid. Although I'm not sure he's on the same level as the rest of these people he is entertaining to watch and quite informative.
I was just thinking that I would love to see a vid, or series even, where Destin explains something super technical about rockets and then Amy (Vintage Space) explains how it came about historically. How neat would that be?
Hullo! it's...
spacetaco1 informative yes, but his voice is way to soothing. I fall asleep during his videos 😂😂
Those are a couple of amazing gentlemen right there, Tory and Destin. Simply awesome.
thank you so much for the second channel footage! It was just totally awesome to see all of that together uncut and if you have any more, that would be awesome too!
Absolutely amazing.
You would think a CEO of a rocket plant would be standoffish and think he thought he was better than everyone.
This man did not have to do what he. It’s people like him that make small kids dream big, because he’s not hiding anything from them and they see how friendly of a person someone in his position can be.
I actually want to thank you for taking your time to show the world what you do at that facility. Pretty much step by step showed every aspect of the Rockets they make. Kids love rockets & I imagine you’ve made several happy because of this video.
I know some plants can’t do that thorough of an interview because of the competitors and secrets and so forth but if more people and CEOs of companies would do what this gentleman here has done it will open the eyes of so many youngsters and even teenagers.
Thank you again Tory for Sharing all with everyone and thank you Destin for making the video. You did an awesome job thank you.
The discussion you guys were having near the end of the video about tank slosh was very interesting to me because I happened across some documentation online sometime in the past year pertaining to the ullage motors for the Saturn V. There is also video on RUclips showing an internal view of an LH2 tank as the J2 motor fires. It's just really interesting stuff to me.
Sloshing like in The Martian?
That whole section was great - and each time Destin said “Kind of like ____” and Tory got excited - made me smile 😃
wait what? Can i have the source Whitehead? Would like to see the vids
do you have a link to the video? that sounds really interesting
how about a link to that LH2 vid, thanks.
I had to pause like 500 times to just look at some of the scenes. Tory routinely answers fans on twitter, and its so cool to see how down to earth he is with you. Thanks for showing this my dude.
YO Tory is an amazing man, reminds me of my grandfather big chemical Engineer, John Rajoc. i spell the last name wrong every time, my grandfather helped design the heat shields that they use to reenter the earths atmosphere!
Glad I found this site! The videos so educational and enjoyable. I have supplied sensors and components with most of these companies in the space program for nearly 40 years and this is great. Keep up the great work😉
12:20 "hold your hat and your glasses" I love how they look after every detail in terms of safety
That is the best soup to nuts rocket engineering explanation I've ever heard. You right, this guy knows his stuff. And he was so easy to listen to...
Wow Tory is a boss! He’s super intelligent and very well spoken on camera! Thanks for the awesome content!
Destin you rock man! Tory is such an awesome and interesting person, I'm unbelievably happy you had the opportunity to do this and document it!
lol, im actually impressed that you can hold that big camera at the perfect angle for that whole walk. Awesome video Destin!
Also, never heard of Kerbal Space Program. Totally buying this to play with my kids.
This is incredible, thank you Tory Bruno for sharing, you are a truly humble and an amazing human being, I’m grateful for Destin and your gifting
Just after that loop, my mind was blown. C3-po is really c3=p(planetary) o(orbit)
This was probably the best video I have seen on both channels. Utterley glorious, thank you. Just needs the launch to be added.
It's a little thing, but I think my favorite moment is the guy in the "Safety and Quality" shirt at 11:19 explaining that he's with safety and quality without batting an eye.
Destin please do as many of these as possible. Peeking into the minds of geniuses like this is what people need right now
Tory Bruno comes over as a really nice guy! :)
I think I learned more in this half hour than from 40 years of interest in space flight.
I could listen to all 3 hours of your interview and still want to hear more. I love these longer, more in-depth videos. 🙌🏻
This is honestly one of the greatest videos I’ve ever watched on RUclips... EVER!!!!! Thank you for making it!! Truly amazing and inspiring!!!!!
Absolutely the best rocket video I have seen on You Tube. I am not an engineer and was lost quickly with the conversations they were having. For a CEO of the company to be as laid back, genuine, hospitable, and genuinely open to this interview is amazing. I live in Orlando and we see the launches all the time. Thanks to Dustin and Tory for a great insight to the process.
We could inspire so many people with space travel talk!
Destin, this is without a doubt the most awesome video I have ever seen. The way you film made me feel like I was there, and that was just unreal. Thank you so much for doing this.
This is genuinely the best video on youtube.
Wow, what an episode! Tory reminds me of a brilliant little kid with that spark and passion. A big thank you to everyone. This is how civilization advances and we all get smarter. The future looks bright... and fast!
I CRIED INSIDE WITH YOU WHEN YOU REFLECTED ON BEING WHERE YOU WERE . EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE INVOLVED IS IN THIS OPERATION IS BREATHTAKING . THANK YOU FOR THE KNOWLEDGE AND EMOTIONS.
I can read HAPPYNESS on your face, at the end, man!
Not only smarter, but greater every day!
Your channel is in the positive side of You Tube! YOU give value to RUclips!
Tory is a great interview. Amazing and informative.
This guy is a absolute legend!!!! His passion flows through this video! As someone who knows nothing about rockets I loved watching this!!!
Amazing... Learned So Much Listening to Tory
Fantastic channel.
As a child of the 70's, I always wanted a career in Space / Rocketry. Sadly I ended up in IT, However having just binge watched your entire channel while on lockdown, it was fascinating. I could listen to Tory all day.
Hoping my children enjoy watching this as much as I did - Thankyou
This is so cool Destin, can't really believe it actually!
So awesome Destin. A great CEO taking time to present his passion. My brother in-law is an aerospace 'eer for ULA working on the Altas (thermodynamics). I'm patiently waiting for a launch invite!
I have watched a lot of launches in my life never in mind I would have guessed about the problem of fuel viscosity and fuel in 0 g to funnel into to the engine
This is some high behind the line access footage 😎
That was extremely generous of him to let u up in there, what an honour, well done and we'll covered 😎👍🏻🏴
“Hey guys, there’s Destin from SmarterEveryDay”
“Hello Destin from SmarterEveryDay”
Man this is so awesome, just love listening to passionate, brilliant, approachable people explaining things. He was so patient with every question, and provided great answers. Gotta say I teamed up bit when his wife was talking the kids and her father. True, proud Americans. My faith in America is somewhat restored...
Rocket science - it's just like plumbing except you have to use the lightest weight parts possible, your fluid is cryogenically cooled and any leaks result in an explosion.
Hey D, did you know that RUclips isn't going anywhere and that you will be immortalized for possibly centuries and all your hard work is going to influence countless young minds for generations to come?
