Thanks to Principia, this gravity assist sequence can be made in this game. The reaction wheel and better time warp(0.1× physical speed) help me to execute these TCMs with such a low ΔV. This mod aims to replace KSP's unstable physics integration with a higher-order symplectic integrator, adding n-body Newtonian gravitation in the process. Link: github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia And this sequence is not the only one to make an all planets flyby. There is another sequence made by my friend and it uses less ΔV and needs more time to finish this mission. it will take only 3600ΔV in 18.82 years.

In The Expanse sci-fi novels and TV show, this is the kind of thing that “slingshot racers” attempt to do. The Jupiter-6 run is an illegal (because it’s dangerous) competition to complete a transit of Jupiter’s six closest moons in the shortest amount of time, using only one engine burn at the beginning.
I recently completed a spacecraft dynamics course at University and the final project was designing a mission to Neptune using as little delta v as possible. Its funny how similar our mission profiles ended up being, although yours was a lot more complicated 😅 We did VVEJSUN, modeled after the Cassini mission. Really cool video!
This is so cool. The task of planning multiple-gravity-assist-maneuvers trajectory looks like such a puzzling thing to me, like from what side do you even approach creating a plan with so many variables/possibilities? Maybe I just don't understand approach to planning very well.
This is impressive and all but the most impressive thing to me is that thumbnail. So beautiful, you should remove the satellite and make it your wallpaper! Edit: if you want to of course
I like how my rockets have a chance of exploding randomly at any point within the mission, and then there's this guy, using every realistic mod in the book and managing to do this
It doesnt work like that. EDIT: The year is 2024, and it was discovered that i kinda forgot a variable in the equation lmao, now planets should fall towards Jupiter after enough GAs
Are you one of these KSP loving NASA people? And yeah, principia is maybe one of the most impressive mod I've ever seen in all of gaming for the scale of the change to the game and how incredible it is that they could do that. It's a paradigm shift and I love it. Thanks to the people that made it. Mod-makers should make their own actual kickstarter game and make it modular from the get go.
The alignment is no longer as good, such a mission would either require lots more deltaV or lots more patience. The next perfect alignment is 2145, I hope we've discovered better ways to get around than gravitational slignshots by then...
@@CarlosAM1 Well, ITER is just a reactor……very far from an engine which can be adopted to spaceship. It would be very lucky for human to make one before 2100
Not in a long time. He chose a window where the outer planets would be aligned so he could fly by them in a sequence, the same window used by the Voyager probes. We would need to wait ~150 years before this happens again. He launched in 1970 so he could ping pong off Venus and allow him to go virtually anywhere in the inner planets before heading off to Jupiter.
This is truly impressive work. I can't imagine the work that went into planning this. I hate to be that guy, though, but I'll say it: Pluto should have been included because it was considered a planet during the time frame this mission occurred, and it was possible for the real grand tour to include Pluto if they had chosen to do that instead of get a closer look at Titan.
@@parz1pane772 actually, i can get there with a gigantic orbiter, a nuclear interplanetary stage and a normal lander :P (My first trip to duna, howewer didnt managed to get out of the surface of duna with 5000 ∆v)
Incredible! I would love to see a tutorial about a "simpler" gravity assist trajectory, for example using Venus and Earth flyby's to get to Jupiter. I really want to know how to calculate such trajectories!
Hey Reach, Astounding video (as usual). I was wondering how you planned all the gravity assists? How did you find out, that you need to launch at this exact time to get all of these gravity assists? Did you use a real-life mission as reference, used a tool or planned it all out yourself? Whatever you did, it's seriously amazing. Keep up the great work.
I use flyby RSS to find them, and it only can find 5 gravity assists. I designed some short gravity assists sequences and splice them. It takes me half a year to find this window. This sequence is a an original design.
There are two types of KSP players: ones like us who barely get where we want and the KSP machines who pull of assists like they're dancing with the solar system.
How did you plan all this? I know that it is with principia's flight planner, but how did you manage to plan all the gravity assists in this specific sequence? Great video!
This is like just the normal delta V to reach the mun in the stock KSP system. Despite starting from low earth orbit, it is still crazy to reach every planet in the real solar system.
Where does the music used come from? I know I heard it before (maybe I even heard it here for the first time, but I don't think so, IDK), but can't remember where.

NASA spacecraft uses an heavy stage with large deltaV to make a transjovian injection orbit to leave Earth. Otherwise with lower deltaV you need a Sequence of Two Venus flybys and an Earth flyby to gain enough speed to reach Jupiter. (Venus and Earth are the two heavier rocky planets on Inner Solar System)
