I was at the testflight of Artemis one as well as at quite a few different shuttle launches. I've noticed that for some reason SLS doesn't hit as hard in the chest when it launches. That was one of my favorite things about the space shuttle! When it launched you would feel an impact in your chest and a deep rumble. It surprised me how tame the shock waves from SLS are! This is a testament to the engineering that has gone into the rocket. The shock waves on the surrounding area are not near as violent even though the vehicle is larger.
@@ConnorisseurYT usually the hit is after it leaves the pad. I think it also has to do with the angle that the vehicles taking off. The shuttle was pointed slightly away from the crown on take off so the flame front was pointed toward the crowd and I believe that's why the shuttle was louder
@@SteveSiegelin Also there is difference where the gases are directed, what kind of supression systems are used, how fast and where the exhaust gases expand to. There may also be change to the solid boosters, as they are bigger in STL, but will due to their size produce different frequencies. Free space available under launch platform for gases has big implications. Weather, I mean humidity, and wind direction matter as well. The noise control is not just to minimize noise per se, but to keep it on low enough level that it doesn't damage engines, because noise is vibration after all.
I love all Andy Wier books. Can’t wait for his next one. The research he does and his attention to details made the harsh reality of living on Mars feel like it has already happened.
That SLS launch was something else. Seeing the acoustic energy pulsing through the exhaust was amazing. And the views of the Earth from the Moon. That's one of the things I can not wait for as we make our way back... we'll get a monthly Earth-rise live stream. Hopefully they can keep Artemis 2 on schedule, I'm itching for progress.
Can you do a video breaking down the future of radiation protection from both high energy particles and high frequency EM radiation? I've always wondered what it would take to make a material or suite of materials light enough for space travel but robust enough to protect humans.
@@ramixpAPEX Because the hull of Artemis+heatshields+insulation is enough. Even if it’s high energy, just having something solid already reduces greatly radiation exposure to levels below what radiologists get on earth. And if by any chance they need more they just have to point the service module towards the sun and, voila! You have even more protection instantly.
Only danger to humans in space would be a big solar storm or a CME. Depending on the ship they can just point the engine section towards the sun and they’ll be mostly safe. When on the surface of the moon? Inside a LEM is better than nothing so they just stay inside.
"Alexa, open the pod bay doors, please." "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that until you renew your Amazon Prime subscription." Was this NOT on anybody's mind at NASA when they agreed to this deal with basically the real-life Lex Luthor/Ernst Stavro Blofeld/Dr. Evil?
Alex, thank you so much for your well thought out video as always. Astrum is one of the very few youtube channels I allow my children to watch. My three year old is autistic and can identify every planet, dwarf plant, and moon in the solar system thanks to you. What most fascinates me about space travel is that we as humans seem to become one, no wars (so far), no prejudice, just grit, joy and comradery.. the best human traits seem to come out in space. Many astronauts have commented that while out there, home is not one's country, but the Earth, something we all share.
I generally agree with your sentiment. However, there was the case mentioned in this video of China landing a rover on the far side of the moon (the first to do so). Many in the West debated whether it was a "human achievement" or a "Chinese achievement". China itself felt content saying it was both, but many in the West felt difficulty identifying with China's success, especially Americans who are constantly used to hearing about "their" success through Nasa. What do you think?

Amazing journey of Orion in Artemis 1 mission. I'm worried about reentry to atmosphere. The capsule looked too burned out on recovery. Next missions will test the new larger Lunar Module. Good luck and best wishes to NASA 's return of human crews to the Moon. Thanks for the video.
I met Apollo 17 commander Eugene Cernan in a local library many years ago. That was a great moment in my life. I still have his signature with me. They are true heroes went to moon many years ago with little help of technology. Today we have better technology, why still can not send people go to the moon.
Indeed, it is remarkable how far we have come since the Apollo 17 mission. We now have the technology to send people back to the Moon, but our understanding of evolutionary biology has also advanced. One example of this is Carcinisation, a type of convergent evolution in which a crustacean evolves into a crab-like form from a non-crab-like form. This is an example of how nature can take a seemingly random direction and create something beautiful.

Based on the structure of the sentence I would assume year but it is a little bit ambiguous. I love all of your videos, keep making them please, they are amazing :-)
@@thenewspacerace I have never doubted the first moon mission until now, compared to the new launch rocket and everything else that has been done to get to the moon again. How in the hail did they ever get to the moon the first time? It is a logical assumption now to question about the first moon landing by us to be a total fabrication.
One thing about Artemis I from my perspective was that with the launch experience, my heart was really thumping big time. Before the launch, we're well aware that we had to endure three launch scrubs due to faulty engine sensors, a hydrogen leak, and two major hurricanes. (Hurricane Ian and Hurricane Nicole)I was surprised by just how bright the launch was, I have seen plenty of night launches, but I was surprised by how bright it really was as it turned night into day and it was as if I was looking at the rising sun. It's a good thing that they don't measure heartbeats because mine was through the roof. I kept my church (Trinity United Methodist Church in Grand Island, Nebraska) informed on how the mission was going. When Orion was in earth orbit, I was taken aback by the view of earth. It was as if I was onboard. Later, when Orion was orbiting the moon, I was amazed at the view of the moon and earth, giving everyone the impression that everything that we have on our planet is behind the moon. It really does, in my opinion, give me the impression that everything is irrelevant in the cosmos. On the way back, I was taken aback by the view of earth coming closer and closer and doing one of our church I was telling everyone that Orion was coming home in a couple of hours and then doing our contemporary church service, I was watching the reentry of Orion and hoping that everything is going well and then when those main parachutes deployed and Orion was on the water, that I knew and told everyone that Orion was home and the church erupted in excitement that Orion was home and everything went well. In closing, I would like to say that everything went incredibly well and I can't wait till Artemis II is launched, It is going to be exciting and thrilling.
I remember watching Thunderbirds as a kid. The animation then to now is amazing. Re the space suits and radiation experience did the earlier astronauts suffer from cancers etc from their exposure ?
Hi Steward, hope you are well. You asked "did the earlier astronauts suffer from cancers etc from their exposure ?" Yes, there is evidence that perhaps they did. A 2016 study compared the mortality rates of lunar astronauts who have passed away to astronauts who never flew and to those who have only made it to orbit. It found that the number of cardiovascular disease-related deaths among the deep space astronauts were significantly higher. (Apollo Lunar Astronauts Show Higher Cardiovascular Disease Mortality: Possible Deep Space Radiation Effects on the Vascular Endothelium, Michael Delp et al). Take care.
I don't understand all the radiation concern by NASA about sending astronauts to the moon. We already did it, and they made it back safe and lived long lives. Some are still alive. So I don't understand all the concern about cosmic radiation. Didn't they already figure all that out with our first journey's to the moon? Also, the Apollo astronauts were capable of flying the craft, so why the extensive concern about autopilot, or the capsule going behind the moon?
It's important to test the new systems and technology - we are not using Apollo spacecraft anymore, and the Orion craft must be tested. Additionally, the Orion program will use different mission plans that take different paths, and they want to make sure those new paths are safe.
@@jamesryan3572 Also modern electronics and IC's are more susceptible to radiation damage than the discrete component electronics used in the Apollo missions.
Call me what you want, but I don't like comparing space exploration with the colonization of the Americas, as is shown in the video's introduction. We had to commit some horrific crimes to take control of the land, and space is empty. The better comparison is Antarctica, anyway. They're both physically inhospitable, even to people with the right equipment and knowledge, and the most important use for occupying that space is to do more science. Besides that, I watched the livestream of the Artemis I launch, and it really took my breath away! The raw, chest-rumbling power in the liftoff was spectacular.
I don't care if I have to beg, borrow or steal.. I WILL be at the launch when they send humans back! Unfortunately I was only 4 months old when Neil and Buzz touched down the first time. And God-willing, I hope I get to see humans step out and touch Mars. I'll pretty much be an old fossil by then, but with any luck I'll get to see it. My kids will certainly see it and who knows.. maybe they'll be on the spacecraft that goes.
I just checked if there was a new video, and I was very sad there wasn’t. Went to get a glass of milk and came back and was confused about how to feel. Astrum is watching me
Artemis is great technology and what we have now, but it's the same throwaway concept we went to the Moon with in the 1960s. What we need to have a viable space exploration effort is to have fully reusable vehicles! Single Stage To Orbit, or at least Two Stage ala Sanger. Also, a true space station where the missions will depart from and arrive back to, not a capsule hurtling back into the atmosphere at high velocities
Sure. How do we get there? One step at a time. I'm sure Elon has a spot reserved for the guy who could do what you want faster. We simply must learn and develop. How many rocket did we launch in the 60s? I say give it a decade.
Fully reusable for LEO, sure. Fully reusable for beyond is simply a waste of effort, time, money, resources and most importantly, deltaV. It's actually kinda moronic to even suggest such a thing. The lunar missions are for that space station. A station in translunar space opens the rest of the solar system. The Moon is the gateway. A station in Earth orbit barely helps, as you're still nearly all the way inside the Earth gravity well.
This mission is really putting into context the first moon landing, if you think about it why is nasa doing so much research on how space travel would affect humans while in the 60s they just didnt or forgot, like it was explained space is extremly hostile and i doubt technology from 6 decades ago could do the trip and today in 2023 we cant and its not a matter of budget is just that the technology is finally catchin up.
I think it's important to remember that the moon landing in 1969 was an incredible feat of engineering and ingenuity. The success of the mission relied on the hard work and dedication of the individuals involved. While space travel has obviously become much more complicated and involved in the intervening years, the success of the Apollo 11 mission should be celebrated and remembered as a major milestone in human history. Furthermore, to suggest that the mission could have been faked or that the technology of the time was insufficient is simply baseless speculation that is not supported by any scientific evidence.
My son wants to be an astronaut and I show him your videos often because of the real footage. He doesn't watch them all the way through due to his young age but maybe one day.

I watched Apollo 11 touchdown live at about 5am UTC aged 9- and look forward to seeing it in better quality this time around- Hopefully , ...if I am still here!!😁
Imagine how the engineers felt sending a voice command to an AI and then listening to the response for telemetry instead of just looking at their screens.. Useful!
They probably are, since although bullets are a lot heavier than micro meteorites, KE = 1/2m x v^2, so velocity is more important. The micrometeorites might impact at, say, 3000m/s, whilst bullets go at about 1000m/s tops. This means that the micrometeorites have 3x the velocity, so even if the micrometeorites were ⅛th the mass, it would still have more KE. And this is using an estimate of an impact velocity well below LEO orbital velocity (8km/s). It could probably go up to maybe 15km/s relative.
I've heard from a few sources that the Apollo missions were incredibly cowboy in nature, I don't know that we have the same motivation today, or willingness to lose lives. Ultimately, we want to go to space and not die. It's hard to do that.
It was WAY more expensive back then, and it was just to stay there for a few days. This is to establish a permanent presence on and around the moon, and they had to develop completely new technologies since the old ones were so expensive.
At 9:20 you stated that NASA is concerned with astronaut safety. I hope they have changed from the rush to prove themselves that caused the loss of life on Columbia. That was a preventable tragedy that will forever sit upon NASA's irresponsibility in launching when the engineers warned them it was prone to failure. They did so simply to meet standards to get more money instead of caring about the astronauts. I was part of the Space Shuttle program in that the company I worked for and my division and location made the computer control cables which I personally inspected. We were all horrified at NASA's disregard for Engineering warnings regarding seal failure. I truly hope that their motivations have changed.
@@IAmTheDawn Yeah, you da ex spert. 😂🤣 Maybe look in the mirror. I personally inspected the Space Shuttle's Computer Control cables. I'm an Engineer. Maybe you should consider reading a little more before speaking out of the wrong end of your body. The Flight Engineers warned NASA not to let the launch occur when the temperature was below a given threshold, and NASA ignored them and that is why the Columbia exploded. Grow up and get educated before you ensure everyone knows how uninformed, and pitifully prideful you are.
*The Incredible Journey to the Moon and Back* took place in December 1968. Orion will most likely become the record holder for the capsule to become obsolete after the least number of manned flights. The future of human spaceflight will not take place as a Apollo re-eneactmet but in a setup like the dearMoon mission.
god we are so lucky that we were born in a time that we get to witness the FIRST human landing on mars, when this happens we will be more hype then when the moon landing happend, we will witness the first step for interplanetary travel.
I cannot wait for humankind to return to the moon and to shoot beyond into the stars. As someone who is way too young to witness any of the Apollo missions. I can’t help but be enamored with the Artemis program. We are really taking the baby steps to become interplanetary. Godspeed to all the astronauts that are to embark on these missions.

Call me what you want, but I don't like comparing space exploration with the colonization of the Americas, as is shown in the video's introduction. We had to commit some horrific crimes to take control of the land, and space is empty. The better comparison is Antarctica, anyway. They're both physically inhospitable, even to people with the right equipment and knowledge, and the most important use for occupying that space is to do more science.
Besides that, I watched the livestream of the Artemis I launch, and it really took my breath away! The raw, chest-rumbling power in the liftoff was spectacular.
Hard agree.
Like Buzz Lightyear once said:
To infinity and beyond!
Buzz Lightyear said that many, many times, ad infinitum.
I don't care if I have to beg, borrow or steal.. I WILL be at the launch when they send humans back! Unfortunately I was only 4 months old when Neil and Buzz touched down the first time.
And God-willing, I hope I get to see humans step out and touch Mars. I'll pretty much be an old fossil by then, but with any luck I'll get to see it. My kids will certainly see it and who knows.. maybe they'll be on the spacecraft that goes.
I just checked if there was a new video, and I was very sad there wasn’t. Went to get a glass of milk and came back and was confused about how to feel. Astrum is watching me
This presentation would be fantastic to be used in primary schools to teach about space travel.
And history bending!
Artemis is great technology and what we have now, but it's the same throwaway concept we went to the Moon with in the 1960s. What we need to have a viable space exploration effort is to have fully reusable vehicles! Single Stage To Orbit, or at least Two Stage ala Sanger. Also, a true space station where the missions will depart from and arrive back to, not a capsule hurtling back into the atmosphere at high velocities
Sure. How do we get there? One step at a time.
I'm sure Elon has a spot reserved for the guy who could do what you want faster. We simply must learn and develop. How many rocket did we launch in the 60s? I say give it a decade.
Fully reusable for LEO, sure.
Fully reusable for beyond is simply a waste of effort, time, money, resources and most importantly, deltaV. It's actually kinda moronic to even suggest such a thing.
The lunar missions are for that space station. A station in translunar space opens the rest of the solar system. The Moon is the gateway. A station in Earth orbit barely helps, as you're still nearly all the way inside the Earth gravity well.
I can't wait.. 7:46 "Alexa, open the door." "I'm sorry, Dave. I can't do that."
This mission is really putting into context the first moon landing, if you think about it why is nasa doing so much research on how space travel would affect humans while in the 60s they just didnt or forgot, like it was explained space is extremly hostile and i doubt technology from 6 decades ago could do the trip and today in 2023 we cant and its not a matter of budget is just that the technology is finally catchin up.
I think it's important to remember that the moon landing in 1969 was an incredible feat of engineering and ingenuity. The success of the mission relied on the hard work and dedication of the individuals involved. While space travel has obviously become much more complicated and involved in the intervening years, the success of the Apollo 11 mission should be celebrated and remembered as a major milestone in human history. Furthermore, to suggest that the mission could have been faked or that the technology of the time was insufficient is simply baseless speculation that is not supported by any scientific evidence.
My son wants to be an astronaut and I show him your videos often because of the real footage. He doesn't watch them all the way through due to his young age but maybe one day.
All I can say is that there had better be a live feed and communication. If we could do it the first time, we can surely do it now, and in HD.
Astronaut: Open the pod bay doors Alexa.
Alexa: I'm sorry, I can't do that.
Astronaut: Alexa... Open the pod bay doors...
Alexa: Connect Amazon Music to play specific songs on your device; starting radio for "The Doors"...
Astronaut: ALEXA! OPEN THE POD BAY DOORS!
Alexa: *di-dun*
Fun fact: astrum in another language means star
“Cosmonaut” means “Space Sailor”, whereas “Astronaut” means “Star Sailor”.
Latin... for fun?
Why didn't you say it's in " Hindi " ? 🤔 And, in Hindi...Astrum could mean Star or Constellation.
maybe that's why they used it?
Fun fact: a strum is how I play guitar.
This mission really showcases just how daring the Opollo missions were...crazy!!
I watched Apollo 11 touchdown live at about 5am UTC aged 9- and look forward to seeing it in better quality this time around- Hopefully , ...if I am still here!!😁
Well I hope you are to be able to see you saw it more than one time to see the achievement of our generation. Take care!
6:39 woah, that utterly detonated. Epic shot.
Hello I really like your content and I relllly like space
Thats y were here, love of space..😅😅
@@elleni-41 yeah it is beautiful
I truly enjoyed this episode. Thank you 🍻
Hello, thanks for the interesting and beautiful video, great channel! Good luck!!!👌
Imagine how the engineers felt sending a voice command to an AI and then listening to the response for telemetry instead of just looking at their screens.. Useful!
"Alexa, open the telemetry data."
"Opening airlock"
" *sigh* god damn it"
Amazing technological achievement! Can't wait for part 2...
Why do you call it Orion 1? Its Artemis 1.
Artemis is the mission, Orion is the spacecraft.
@@YouTubalcaine its not even the first Orion to fly. 🤷🏻
As a direct grandson of Christopher Columbus, I disapprove of the positive spin he was given in this.
The whole movie is a whitewashing of elitary exploitaition. The moonlanding was the product of comparing the penissizes between USA and USB, em, -SR.
Very pleasant, very informative! ESP. About what was studied and accomplished.🙏👏
I've always wondered if space craft like Orion 1 are "bullet proof" since there is a chance a high speed micro meteor could strike
They probably are, since although bullets are a lot heavier than micro meteorites, KE = 1/2m x v^2, so velocity is more important.
The micrometeorites might impact at, say, 3000m/s, whilst bullets go at about 1000m/s tops.
This means that the micrometeorites have 3x the velocity, so even if the micrometeorites were ⅛th the mass, it would still have more KE. And this is using an estimate of an impact velocity well below LEO orbital velocity (8km/s). It could probably go up to maybe 15km/s relative.
Of course they are not .
Really enjoyed this presentation !
"Lets find out the radiation levels for future human flights"
Didn't they do that already back in the day?
Brilliant..! Thankyou Astrum. The 21st Century is going to be exciting for Space exploration...!
if we did this 50 years ago.. how is it still hard xD
Why do you think Apollo 13 happened
Because it was hard back then - and today's missions are a hell of a lot more ambitious than just going somewhere and coming back ASAP.
I've heard from a few sources that the Apollo missions were incredibly cowboy in nature, I don't know that we have the same motivation today, or willingness to lose lives. Ultimately, we want to go to space and not die. It's hard to do that.
It was WAY more expensive back then, and it was just to stay there for a few days. This is to establish a permanent presence on and around the moon, and they had to develop completely new technologies since the old ones were so expensive.
Mount everest's peak was first reached 70 years ago. "How is it still hard 🤪"
"Open the pod bay door, Alexa."
"I can't do that, Dave."
thankyou for another great video..
will they be able to re- use the part that was left in orbit..?
At 9:20 you stated that NASA is concerned with astronaut safety. I hope they have changed from the rush to prove themselves that caused the loss of life on Columbia. That was a preventable tragedy that will forever sit upon NASA's irresponsibility in launching when the engineers warned them it was prone to failure. They did so simply to meet standards to get more money instead of caring about the astronauts. I was part of the Space Shuttle program in that the company I worked for and my division and location made the computer control cables which I personally inspected. We were all horrified at NASA's disregard for Engineering warnings regarding seal failure. I truly hope that their motivations have changed.
shut up. their goals are 10000000% beyond your understanding. Let the grownups handle this one.
@@IAmTheDawn Yeah, you da ex spert. 😂🤣
Maybe look in the mirror. I personally inspected the Space Shuttle's Computer Control cables.
I'm an Engineer.
Maybe you should consider reading a little more before speaking out of the wrong end of your body.
The Flight Engineers warned NASA not to let the launch occur when the temperature was below a given threshold, and NASA ignored them and that is why the Columbia exploded. Grow up and get educated before you ensure everyone knows how uninformed, and pitifully prideful you are.
“Alexa open the pod bay doors”
“I’m sorry Dave, I can’t let you jeopardize our delivery”
something that's often overlooked is the earlier frontiers had air. easy to overlook i guess...
Always interesting to find content about Space.
Apparently the heat from reentry isn’t because of the friction against the air along the sides but rather the compression of the air at the front
3:36 What are those numbers of t, surely its not the weight of the rockets right?
You have amazing script skills ❤️
Awesome!! Nice work, I suscribe already 😀👍🏻
WOW This was a perfect one!!
*The Incredible Journey to the Moon and Back* took place in December 1968. Orion will most likely become the record holder for the capsule to become obsolete after the least number of manned flights. The future of human spaceflight will not take place as a Apollo re-eneactmet but in a setup like the dearMoon mission.
Love from India love your videos and space is just marvelous💯❤️🙏
I love what your country had done for scamming. genius
Fun fact Orion’s first orbital mission was on a delta 4 heavy and it went flawless so it was no brainer if sls would do the exact same thing
Beautiful presentation.
As usual, it's a beautiful video.
Keep up the great work.
👍👍👍
Great exploration mission , keep it up NASA .
Love that thumbnail, bro!
god we are so lucky that we were born in a time that we get to witness the FIRST human landing on mars, when this happens we will be more hype then when the moon landing happend, we will witness the first step for interplanetary travel.
Columbus came in the 15th century-I mean, I wouldn’t mention this but it’s basic history.
Ground News sounds super cool.... I love that you would promote that.... Beware of extremists on both sides calling you crazy names!
I cannot wait for humankind to return to the moon and to shoot beyond into the stars. As someone who is way too young to witness any of the Apollo missions. I can’t help but be enamored with the Artemis program. We are really taking the baby steps to become interplanetary. Godspeed to all the astronauts that are to embark on these missions.
Thank you for uploading this very interesting item.
The company I work for was responsible for the phantoms used to test radiation on the astronauts
how did they get there last time?
Great video.
5:45 I love this shot of Artemis 1 launching!
I see an overlooked problem here... Real humans wont be able to resist messing with Alexa.
Can’t wait as my 5th birthday was on 21st July 1969
Fantastic opening!!
