- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ก.ค. 2024
- In my most difficult and tedious mission yet, I send Jeb on an 84 year mission to Eeloo and back, requiring 12 gravity assists overall, using a craft that weighs just 3.6 tons! Note that Bradley Whistance pointed out to me that the performance of the engine apears to change at 7:30. Unfortunately, the mathematics doesn't check out on this mission so I must have accedentially used non-stock values.

Hi guys. Unfortunately, Bradley Whistance recently pointed out to me that the performance of the engine apears to change mid-flight at 7:29. I thought it was 100% legitimate when I uloaded it, but, unfortunately, the mathematics doesn't check out on this mission and I must have accedentially used non-stock values. I hope you understand that this was an accident, and that you can still appreciate the other aspects of this video. The mission itself is still doable (even with a lighter craft!) as proven by TurboPumped here: th-cam.com/video/_Xzp0bDqaIE/w-d-xo.html
Your well known for using the cheats to pump out videos as proven by many other TH-camrs, I can easily believe this is the same circumstance.
Is there a reason you don't use the autoflight to affix your trajectory to prograde/retrograde and to follow maneuvers?
Hazard-ish make,
He create,
But most importantly, he fake
When next upload?
@injustice fellow i agree
Jeb was 18 years old when he started his journey. Now poor Jeb is 102. Lol
Saxie81 and he doesnt even age lol
Dermatologists hate him
LOL
In the good ol' days, we still had normal rockets... ya' know... i still remember those times...
BADASS never age
Poor guy spent like 80 years sitting in the tip of the rocket like an engine hood ornament. Must have had a hell of a constipation once he got back home.
Call him Jeb
The original ksp character and the big brain guy
Yeah, he surely spend his entire life without food and water in the space.
Because missions like this are possible, I believe that kerbals are photosynthetic and can hibernate for centuries
Sentient space fairing plants
That must be why they are green
Explains alot
Yeah that’s actually my theory, since they are green and can do all of this shit with little to no downsides
Gravity assist does help you gain speed
"So what did you guys all do today?"
"Went skateboarding"
"Watched some tv"
"Homework"
"I flew a little green man to video game Pluto and landed with a solar powered segway, then went back home and deorbited with an EVA pack and then aerobraked and landed with a trash can lid with wings strapped on. And I used less than twenty gravity assists!"

84 years at 0 G... He just stand up like nothing happened and drove away in his Ferrari
You haven't see the 160 years yet

That Eeloo encounter was so low... balls of steel
My best encounter was on 2,500 in periapsis xD
that was terrifying to watch!
Badass more like.
The music during the encounter was perfect too...
spoonikle Does anyone know what's Eeloo's highest peak? 'Cause it seems very flat.
On the equator its about 2900 meters.
Jeb is one hardcore dude. Twelve gravity assists, 84-year mission duration, no supplies, no instruments or tools, no quarters, no backups, and a pair of wheels for landing gear. All skill and dead reckoning.
And he did the landing backwards.
The poor Kerbal had nothing to eat and no toilet for 84 years!!!
Beeing a Kerbal compensates for alot, it seems :)
maybe since theyre green they are actually plants so they had food and maybe a little airlock in their pants that opens up every few minutes
What do you think EVA propellant is made from anyway?
Or they have symbiotic photosynthetic bacteria in their bloodstream and tissue. Not only does it supply oxygen direct to the tissues and remove CO2 it should also remove metabolic waste products.

Now that is why they are green! I see :)
aw i brought up that point first why dont i get any credit :(
They gave him a chair and some beef jerky and he was on his way through the solar system for several years :P
that is right, also kerbals are like plants whitch os why we are green, we live using the sun, we also of course eat snacks, including beef jerky

It's not just a boulder...
It's a rock! A big, beautiful rock!
It's just a stupid boulder!
TR-8R it's not just a boulder, it's Iraq!
Did they...
drive up to the rocket in a DeLorian??
christ.
also: 4:42 the butt-clench is real.
Jeb got some good pilates done while in orbit around Eeloo.
Well, if you're going to go to Eeloo, you might as well do it in style!
Wait, doc,
you boarded an Eloo rocket...
out of a DeLorian??
The delorian was used in his SSTO to Moho video, that was a different car
How the board meeting went.
"Well you see buy using wheel brakes we can at the right angle simple break using friction."
"What are you mad!!! You want to send a Kerbanaut out into space with nothing but a fancy scooter?!?"
"With all the money we saved we will be able to build a rocket car which will look sweet as it drives him off into the sunset when he arrives"
*sigh* "Fine. But only because of the sweet rocket car you just mentioned."
*Well you see by using wheel brakes at the right angle, we can simply break by using friction
There was so much going on in this video that I had to make it a long one! I hope that's okay - tell me what you think about having slightly longer videos. I wont be doing anything this long anytime soon (you can see how long it took me to make it!) but all feedback is appreciated!
Hazard-ish I'm TOTALLY fine with slightly longer vids it just makes it more entertaining for me :D
It's really awesome having longer videos, I mean, you don't make videos that often (not complaining, quality stuff like this take time) so it's better that when you do, we got a lot to watch!
Hazard-ish all about the xenon gas burns that brings up the video time lol
Was this done in 1.2?
This is so entertaining. The brains behind all this
So you're telling me that you drove a delorian to the launch site of a solar-powered flying segway which you sent to the farthest reaches of the Kerbol system...
That's how I would want to go to space!
An then you jump from orbit??
More importantly, to drive that delorian 80 years later, I bet Jeb would be questioning where did that 80 years of wages went.
that was a mustang not a delorian. the back window was a dead give away
They did add nitro though
@@nukezap6528 it's a delorian. I swear it is in another one of hazard-ish's videos there's this same car in it but with the BTTF time machine stuff on the back. literally the same car.
Thirty years that kerbal sat in one spot.
Thirty years.
Not even including going back.
Starwars8539 i think 84 years..
or even moving anywhere
therafigamer 30 human years. The kerbal year is 480 odd.
(car pulls up)bill:hey jeb in the 80 years you have been gone we built a jump drive and now we can go to Eeloo in 2 seconds. (jeb falls out of the car due to 84 years of bone loss and turns into a puddle) :( poor jeb
im tired ok
Ayyyy now we have moar mister goo
This must be the most impressive ksp video I have ever seen, awesome work ! All Those gravity assists and that eeloo landing must have been a nightmare to pull off :)
Great to hear this from you! The gravity assists were rather torturous, but honestly, getting into Kerbin orbit was the single hardest step in this mission! I had to get the ascent profile EXACTLY right or I would have significantly less delta-V in orbit or not make it to orbit at all. Overall, it took 53 attempts to get the orbit you see in the first few minutes :P
Wow no has seen these comments yet! I have a request i would think is extremely cool. Can you guys make (in the multiplayer mod) a youtube ksp Space station?
It would be awesome to see a big station with the most loved youtubers of ksp
Well its definitely up there, but i think bradley whistance’s mission to eve using only solid rocket boosters might be even more impressive, not to mention tedious ^^
Turbo Pumped and then you copy his idea and make an eeloo lander that is 3.4 tons
I think you are the two most professional Ksp youtuber.👏👏
Btw Hazard-ish WOOOOOOW.
until half way through I didn't notice the kerbal
me neither lol
will rice I had skipped the intro, I was on my other monitor till like 3 mins in
Thank you all for 100,000 views! Means a lot :)
Hazard-ish this was amazing.
Hazard-ish and i thought turbo pumped was great
IM GAY
@@Kid_Legend_4_Life ok?
Quinn the protogen IM GAYYYYYY
After all these years...
...this is still probably my absolute *favourite* KSP video.
After all it includes:
•God tier KSP skills (let’s face it, Hazard-ish is absolutely amazing)
•”Better than quite a lot of Hollywood movies” level of editing (which is probably even more impressive than the KSP stuff since it’s less expected really)
•Music choices and use of music that can only be described as “better than anything I’ve seen in my entire life”.
No, I am serious here. I really think so. After all, the buttery transitions between the action of KSP coupled with fitting music *down to a single beat*, achieved through superb editing is why this video is still my favourite after all this time.
Matt Lowne is great; Turbo Pumped is pretty damn skilled; Scott Manley knows his stuff (and does almost no KSP today), but *you, sir Hazard-ish* are an *ABSOLUTE LEGEND.*
Oftentimes, people grow to like the things they liked before less. But this video...
...this video is a literal fine wine which only gets better with time.
Props to you (and also congrats on coming back to the channel even though you’ll probably never see this comment).
I see you! Thank you for the kind words :)
@@Hazardish I hope I helped make your morning/day/evening/night better with it then :)
Agreed. Already 6th time watching in awe.
Holy crap that was amazing. I go into each of these videos knowing im going to be amazed but I can never be fully prepared. The way you manipulate each manouver and encounter to get your results seems like sheer witch-craft to a lesser, feeble mind like mine. I was going to ask what that was you jettisoned in kerbin orbit at the begining, but at the end I understood, amazing. And as always, the music - Perfect choice as usual. I can tell you pick these tracks carefully depending on what's happening on screen. You always manage to keep my eyes glued to the monitor as if its about to explode at any second, even during long periods of time in the manouver screen. Bravo.
For me, I'm not concerned with how long the videos are, do which ever keeps you making these videos with this high level of production quality and be happy/motivated while doing it. If short videos mean a higher frequency, then that would be great, if vice versa, then by all means, bring on the long videos!
Cant wait for the next one!
Thank you so much for your feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed and appreciated my video!
Sarutoshi I just came while watching this video
This one was just amazing, anyone can see the very hard work. Also, i did not have the need to skip any single part. (Maybe a little at the very end) Just a marvelous piece of work Hazard-ish.
Thank you very much! :)
NASA hasn't time skipper and hundred years on one mission =)
Yeah, i can't imagine how tired mission control would be!
Most underrated video on TH-cam. This took way too much planning. Hats off to you.
A guy once hit the Kraken with a soccer ball (A spherical object added in a soccer based mod, no other features used.) from high jool orbit, so this is only #2. Sorry!
Gigabic what's the video called???
Good thing a kerbal can survive for 84 years with no food, water or oxygen!
Are they solar powered?
Also, that was the most epic kerbal landing I have ever seen. Orbital reentry via a hang glider.
one story goes that kerbals live by photosynthesis (explaining the green color). also watching that clip on youtube with the guy having a sealed miniature garden in a bottle for 50 years makes me come up with the following theory: a kerbal needs only sunlight and a sealed costume to live for many years. at least 84, as you've just seen, haha. of course, he would have to drink plenty of water before being enclosed in his space suit.
84 kerbal years=24 human years
Just saying.
Ready for Ghostastic It's because their system is 10 times smaller. They have completely same time that we have, they're just counting it other way.
true cause a Kerbal day I'd 6 hours and 32 mins and a Kerbal year is 428 days. so yeah about 24 human years
mesoth what is English
Awesome! Enjoyed the 15 minutes as if they were 1!
Thank you for saying that! I was really worried that this video would be too long to be engaging!
Martii que haces aquí jajaja a mi también me encanta este juego ^^
a huevo marti aca O.o no me lo esperaba
apoco te gustan estos vídeos soy fan de c de ciencia y de este tio
Marti, t eencuentro en todos los sitios
This is an insane amount of work! Pulled it off dude! Anyone know the mods used for the planet textures?
KSPRC has everything you need!
Awesome, thanks man
William Cook same mod, it overhauls part textures
Matt Corke astronomers visual pack (edge of oblivian)
That cant be legal. Someone call the physics police!
he paid an 84 years fine for making that trip.
The game leaves plenty of headroom for creative cheating. For example: Right behind the air inlet is a decoupler and a heat shield. In reality this would totally block the airflow.
fpm1979 well. Not if you wire it right
fpm1979 yeah but at the same time the heat shield probably also crates even more lift then the wings do it's just wings have more accounted drag/glide
I keep coming back to this video. This is absolutely insane.
Every time I watch one of you videos I think to myself "That was the most amazing thing I have ever seen." Then, on the next video I think it again.
Haha, thanks! I'm always trying to outdo myself!
dude you're like, jesus or smth...
Next hazard video: 1 ton ssto to eve and back
thats to ez he probably could do it in half a ton
using only low tier parts :)
Only with SRBs
Next hazard video: landing on every planet in the Kerbol system using nothing but a unicycle and a smartphone battery.
Nick Johnson With underwater launches where possible.
When the car comes back for him up the end... I cried!
Hazard-ish! Such a great video, I don't mind the length at all but I love your shorter videos just the same. I love how minimalistic yet intricate your ship and mission were!
I just updated subscription page and Hazard-ish video popped up! I'm like the happiest person ever!
"happiest person"
That sounds like something a cat would say..
Enjoyed it soooo much, can't find much quality content like this on youtube nowadays
Well done sir
I aim to impress! :)
Omg your big music and video edit is awesome! Not to mention your super compact rocket, rigorously calculated path, open seat design on the return trip and the reentry glider. Oh yeah, the car too. So glad to having seen your immense amount of work and brilliant ideas.
This is my #1 KSP video of all time. Great soundtracks and very creative way to get to Eeloo and back. And that ending! /bow Well done!
I love how one engine from saturn V's first stage were heavier than this xD
And it's not even a Reddit challenge.
Amazing. Both the mission and the looks of the game. The latter should become official.
Wow!
This is one of the best KSP videos I've ever watched! Huuuuuge props to you for the time and skill it must have taken!
Holy crap dude! I would not have thought this even possible. Great work of engineering, even greater work of planning, and insanely awesome display of piloting skills! I probably couldn't pull this mission off even if you gave me the craft and explained the flight plan exactly.
Grand Tour of the Solar System in RSS, landing on each body, at the bottom of the ocean if the body has one, upside-down launches, with SRBs only, no parachutes, and no UI.
The Ultimate Challenge.
I would've listed SSTO only, but that would take Hazard-ish teaming up with Scott Manley and NASA to figure out.
No, that's too easy. 10x RSS!
No SAS, or RCS and yes, SSTO.
I wonder if this would actually be possible with tons of mods, without summoning the kraken or melting the computer first...
amazing video, really impressive
Thank you!
That ending was spectacular :) I really liked how you showed the map screen during the gravity assists. It gives me an idea of the process used to set them up.
Very original, daring and at the same time, simplistic problem solving, one of the best I have seen so far!
That was an ass-clenchingly close encounter with eeloo
Probably the best of all the KSP videos I've ever seen. Perfect music and perfect direction. Not to mention the skill. GJ dude.
One of the most epic KSP vids I've seen, such kerbal landings at both ends (+ bonus points for the C&C music)
People are doing things like this, and I can barely get into orbit around kerbin XD
i think i'd rather orbit and land on kerbin than go to the mun. it's very uninteresting and minmus is my favorite due to high science outputs in comparison and the extremely low delta v to get out of its soi
How many hours you got on this game? It shouldn't take too long to figure out how to get into orbit.
i can get on a orbit around kerbin EASILY, but a moon landing, i literally used up 12 fucking hours trying to get there, it all failed
LemarkillerNL Sorry, but I wasn't asking you. I was asking Blazing Ocelot15.
Luke Kerman You aren't the only one who can't do 2-way Mun landing trips. I have literally made no-rapier NERV SSTOs that can deliver satellites into high orbit, but a mun landing??
Luke Kerman frankly, Minmus is better than the Mun. ;)
... And I'm just sitting here trying to get a probe into orbit
: ÜBER : I figured it out my first time by building the most simple thing I could, every time up until my first success, I was over complicating it
need help?
Amazing. Incredibly well thought-out and great cinematics AND music! I love it.
Beautiful in cinematics as well as preparations and executions! This is incredible!
WOW the davinci of KSP
This is my go-to video when my 6 month year old baby needs help to calm down and fall a sleep.. He is simply hypnotized by your KSP magics (the music probably helps as well). :-)
Really? That's neat!
Must be one of the best KSP videos i've ever seen. I was laughing, gasping, "oooooOOOO"'ing, all troughout the video + a slow clap for that final landing on kerbin. And that landing technique on Eeloo was inspired, absolutely hillarious. Stellar performance all around mate. :) Kudos.
Really glad you enjoyed it! I love hearing stuff like this from people. Thanks!
One of the best KSP videos I have ever seen, amazing job! Keep it up, I want to see more!
>84 years
Hope he took a book. Maybe even two.
Nope, it would lower the total DeltaV.
The whole journey was cheaper than the car maintenance :o
I can't imagine the time it took to do all this LET ALONE the set ups for the gravity assists and maneuvers alone! Great video and great insane idea, really cool to see it pulled off!
That was amazing, it takes so much work to do it, really nice video!
Dear god... THAT is freaking amazing :-D
I was like "wtf" watching the end of the video xD
I can't even comprehend Gravity Assists, and you used a lot of those in this. Hell I can't even comprehend how a Heatshield Glider worked. xD Great job as always Hazard-ish!
Pesterenan Olha que ta aqui
Really impressive, nice work! Killer gravity assists!
this was the coolest ksp video ive watched, the little cars the music the creativity 10/10 AWSOME VIDEO GOOD JOB
oh my god, my head is exploding. I'm not even sure I could do this if I had ten times as much dedication as you must have (and had an idea on how to calculate gravity assists, that is). keep up this.. amazing is too weak a word - work up, please. also, who cares about long videos? I mean, it's really really really really good content, so why would anyone mind?
Thanks so much! I was just a little apprehensive about the longer videos because I thought people might get bored and stop watching. Hopefully I've made it engaging enough to keep people interested, though!
Long videos are cool! Even more your videos, which are always amazing!
Dunno why I was subbed to you yet :)
God I hope this one is real, it's probably my favourite KSP video ever!
look at 11:01, his kerbin encounter goes right into the surface and his fuel doesn't change to indicate a correction burn.
BrynaLynn BrynaLynn sorry bro, fake too. See how at 7:28 his electricity runs out but his ion engine stays running?!
no that's at least possible, without electricity the ion engine will still work at a very low thrust equivalent to the amount of electricity being produced and its efficiency drops.
You are right, it could be possible. I was still thinking about the older versions of ksp where the ions would turn on/off/on/off when there wasn't enough electricity.
But as far as I can tell, the engines are still running at full thrust, which they shouldn't since -7.17 electric depletion rate vs only a charge rate of 1.57. The acceleration once the batteries deplete should be at a reduced rate compared to the initial ascent acceleration. I still think something wonky was going on.
that has got to have been the single most badass landing on a planet ive ever seen. fucking SURF over it.
Thank you for this video. I love your approach to landings.
holy shit a wheel landing at orbital speed
Where can I get that badass car you're using?
It's one of those videos that the more you know KSP the more you sit with totall, speechless awe. Every small part of this video and hence - execution of your plan - were beyond my imagination. And all of them had to be executed perfectly. 53 attempts just to get properly on the orbit, huh? Sub and endless respect. Greetings from Poland.
Wow. Just actually doing this would be impressive on its own, but the tricky show-off maneuvers, the cinematography, the music, all absolutely stunning. Very well done man.
The only one you could beat was yourself. And you did just that!
Sooo amazing!
Any chance to get an insight in the planing?
wait, you actually used lithobraking for something useful!? Dang.
Simply Amzing and wonderfully well put together
Wow that was absolutely amazing. Quite the journey accompanied by the perfect soundtrack. Brilliant work!
This dude gets to Eeloo with a 3.6 ton rocket, but i on the other Hand cant manage to land on the moon with a 100ton rocket. I really suck ass xD
It's actually easier to land on Minmus. Less gravity to deal with, and more smooth landing areas.
_Viper2c_ No no, i get onto the moon. But my ship either Ends up wrecked or without fuel. xD
Right! Minmus has less gravity, so it doesn't take as much DeltaV to land or take off. Even the Mun shouldn't be too hard. If you run out of fuel you need to check up on how your rocket is designed. You might be wasting fuel because of drag, or you don't have enough thrust to get into space initially fast enough.
I landed on the moon first because minmus has that tilted inclination. I didn't get how to change that at first.
+Cerebral I feel INCLINED to tell you: Both have tilted inclinations, and matching said inclination should be as simple as pointing your ship directly up/down relative to the moon you're trying to reach and performing a burn at the pivot point.
Hi! Since you haven't upload anything for a month, here's a challenge to spice things up
Normal Mode:
Take an SSTO to Tylo (No lander, everything must land in one piece)
Hard mode:
Take the crews back
The " I know you can do it" mode:
Take the SSTO back to Kerbin (You can use an interplanetary tug rocket for that)
That's all I have, I know some say a Tylo SSTO is impossible, but based on your Single Tank to Tylo video, I think it's possible :) Have a good day
Jack Heidelberg-Tillotson Wasn't it Matt Lowne?
Also, Bradley Withstance actually did fly an SSTO to Tylo, so it should be possible.
Single tank video has infinite fuel seen during some manoeuvres
Thanks for including some sneaky (i.e. very fast) footage of how you plan these maneuvers. I learned a thing or two from watching some of those parts in slow motion. :)
holy moly. I thought it was cool with all the gravity assists and stuff and then at the end, you rendezvoused with the glider, I was like :O it's like in a show when you think a characters died and then he comes back to save someone. Awesome video man!
Meanwhile, I landed 215 ton to Minmus! Huh, finally!
That is a lot my dude
And I'm proud when I get a kerbal to Minmus...
How many F5+F9s did you use?
The camera work on this is absolutely spectacular, and adds a certain visual magic to the more dramatic and tense moments. This video is, without a doubt, out of this world.....
I'm blown away by your content man. The music, the effort, the editing... just incredible, truly.
holy shit, did anyone see the eclipse at 12:08
LIAR. That craft weight 3.611 tons, not 3.61 :D
Jeb was eaten the abacus for this mission
Jeb had to skip breakfast otherwise he would've have had the ∆V to make it
Lurker101 now the restaurants within 3km radius from the ksc are rich
it would be 0.001 tonnes actually, or 1kg.
Breakfast is important though before an 85 year mission
All your videos are well made and worth the wait.
Damn! That was a tight job, really cutting it close. You were running on scraps of EC for the Eeloo deorbit, really amazing. Also that orbit scared the shit out of me, skimming so close to the surface I inadvertently reached for my controls to pull up hahaha
Hey man, you still alive? There are some unread messages for you regarding a certain project ;)
Did you like your own comment 29 times?
Aiiie cheeki breeki iv damke ^^
someone please tell me which visuals/graphics mod is that
KSPRC :)
thank you
Hazard-ish: is that texture available for ksp 1.0.5?
probably my favorite ksp video of all time - everything about it is simply perfect.
wow...the video is awesome! the mission is incredible! and the MUSIC just makes it pure gold! well done sir!
Eve rocket in under 10 tons
Lmao
Done, 9 tons
i really hope this was real
nope
this is so well made i love it, subbed immediately! just love the style too, looking forward to more videos
This is amazing! I love this so so much!! Nice music choices as well!!
Patrician choice in music my friend.
I'm glad you appreciated it! I went all out with the music in this one.
I wanna add, I think it takes some serious balls to fly that low to a planet surface, that fast, like you did. I was cringing the entire time, and I almost tore something when you hit the surface, but you managed to keep it under control somehow and skid to a halt, major props.
Can you do a tutorial for how to install astronomers visual pack. Please do it
Astronomers visual is outdated i'd recommend Stock visual enhancement and scatter and use CKAN to install mods
this is KSPRC, not Astronomers. there is a version fix for AVP, if you want this, just put it in the gamedata file. That's how almost every other mod works too.
+Matchlight thanks
+Artheus thanks
Rudi Erer its KSPRC
Stunning, abosilutely stunning.
I would furiosly study a video of your tips and advice re: planning manouvers for gravity assists if such a video was to surface. the process is sped up on this occasion but I can see you using multiple manouver nodes and a superior timing to anything I had ever considered.
Bloody brilliant mate, I have owned the game for a long time now and still struggle to get a basic ship in orbit around Kerbin, That was totally epic!
