- From last night's kerbal space program live-stream - building out a new, stock rocket that can carry a Kerbal to the Mun and back in under 90 minutes. Still hoping to beat my 58 minute record from version 0.9, but need a bit more time to build this out.

My favorite comment I saw about Kubrick faking the moon landings "He's such a perfectionist, he would have insisted they film it on location."
Pretty sure Steven Toast witnessed the whole thing, he even told "that" story live on 'Lorraine'
"We actually wanted to fake it in the first place, but after careful consideration we realized it's way easier just to do it for real."
"Catering"
Actually Kubrick hated filming on location and much preferred controlled environments. Full Metal Jacket was shot entirely in England for example.
@@JoeyJoJoJoestarJuniorShabadoo only filmed in England because of his fear of flying and the fact that and old abandoned industrial area seemed to fit Vietnam's block buildings at that point perfectly , theres a documentary on it , love how flat earthers think the earth is flat but the moon sun and other objects are round 😂😂 they even threw people out there group for trying to say space is fake 😂😂😂😂😂

That’s a bad way to go
NASA: takes 3 days to get to the moon
Scott Manley: goes to Mun and back under 90 minutes
NASA obviously needs MOAR BOOSTERS!
More*.
@Kim Jong Un I used to think you were a great leader...

Those Kerbals that can withstand massive G-forces but turn into dust at the slightest impact...
Not on the head though, head is indestructible
@@hailstorm7868 I have to try that now
Johan Jacobs not thru aero forces, ie. heat
Johan Jacobs no they can’t I’ve tried
water is in fact the most destructive material in the kerbalverse

Scott, if your computer is only 2 years old and "getting hot", you should probably look into dusting it out and cleaning your heatsinks.
i just did that recently too the change in fan volume was fascinating
alcowherd7 i remember when he built it with skye
I just rewatched it ..... so cringe, he didn't put new thermal paste on the cpu cooler, it was an open box return with used paste and he just slapped it on. No wonder it is running hotter now.
Scott, you gotta clean that off first then apply a pea sized dot of thermal paste onto the cpu before re-installing. With the old stuff I am sure it was working fine, but you probably weren't getting full turbo, and with a bit of dust acting as air restriction over the past 2 years, it will only get hotter and louder as the fan compensates.
I opened my laptop ~half a year ago for the first time, because my hinges were getting loose. Bought it autumn 2012. The fan looked more like a vaccuum cleaner's dustbag than a fan. The laptop sped up like it was brand new, and the metal parts of connectors didn't burn anymore. After that experience I've been cleaning up my fans periodically.
I would also check the state of thermal compound on CPU, just in case
re: Control rod harpooning - Suddenly, radiation poisoning seems a...secondary problem...
Seen a similar thing but it was a metal star picket submerged in the river water off the bridge we were jumping off... One of the most gruesome things i'll ever see...
@@maxnaz47 I've heard numerous of stories like this, which is why I never jump off stuff until I know what's under the water.
Makes me shudder just the thought of it.
“I pulled my rod” -Scott Manly
Lmao
"No they were faked on Mars, obviously," said with a full straight face. Brilliant sense of humor, brother!
"Getting pretty hot."
Scott please tell me you dusted your computer.
I have dust filters in all my air intakes, my computer is amazingly clean inside.
Oh. I *suppose* if you weren't at 100% load in games before it makes sense to get hotter. But depending on the game that can be unlikely.
You can always look into better cooling - especially stock CPU cooling can be kind of bad compared to what you can get for not a lot of money. Kind of a bother with cleaning up and applying thermal paste and making sure it's working properly though.

I subbed because he booped the moon. Thats all it took
Reaching the ground in one piece isn't so hard, the tricky bit is still being in one piece a minute later.
Being in one piece a minute later isn't so hard... the tricky part is in ensuring that the "one piece" is still above ground level (as opposed to having "negative altitude") and possesses some measure of depth in the "Z" dimension (as opposed to being spread very thinly over a wide area).
I've heard that it's not the fall that kills,............
@@stan.rarick8556 its yo mama
It's not the fall that kills you. It's not even the sudden stop at the end. It's that not all of you stops at the same instant.
Aparently it's now 9 minutes later thats the hard part ;-)
Had a great conversation with my mom's husband this Sunday. He was with NASA (Software Engineer) for the Apollo missions.... LOTS of good stuff from him...
That was a beautiful "bump" on Mun and soft landing on Kerben well done.
SL 1 is the name of the project you’re thinking about. Instructions said to pull rod out no more than 3 inches rod was pulled out 3 feet...
When you make the Spinal Tap mistake in real life.
This reactor goes to 11.
Lily “this reactor goes to eleven!”
“Does it produce more energy or is it just numbered differently?”
“...this one goes to eleven”
Thats what happens when you use imaginary units of measurement
set the controls for the heart of the sun...
pink floyd ;D
Little by little the night turns around...
The way you talk about these topics is so pleasurable to listen to, and the topics are actually something I'm interested in and kinda related to the game. Good Work Man! xD
Scott's the type of guy who says "Daaaaaa" at the beginning of the video, but isn't German or Russian.
Pranav Shukla ya ist Deutsche. Da is Russian.
Ethan Meixel also german
not really, that would be Ja
German "Da" just means "here"
Roland Kramer close enough
The reactor accident you referenced, SL-1, had two other fatalities in addition to the harpooned guy. It was the central (most reactive) rod that was pulled out upwards of 10 or 15 inches beyond the three that was allowed
chernobyl is another well know prompt critical event
Sun Diving.
Brings back memories of the first time I did a sun refuel when I finally upgraded from the Electron version to the A3000 version of Classic Elite.
And I managed a full refuel without blowing up :)
I feel old again
It would have been more expensive to replicate exactly what we saw in the video for the moon landing than it would have to actually go to the moo .
I love your channel so much I just watched a 3 minute ad in support. I'd never do that for anyone else!
Poor Scott he cannot Händel the heat!
AlwaysTeachingable I'll show you to the airlock...
Nice Mitchell and Webb reference. Of course you'd have seen it!
Apollo aimed about ~90km altitude initial reentry, bouncing on over to ~120km and then come back and land.
how that translates to Kerbin I don't know...
Now and again something happens which reminds me how much I miss Douglas Adams.
Great story about the criticality accident impaling that poor guy. When you started saying you had a story about it, I thought you were gonna go into the accident with the so-called tickling the dragon's tail experiment. I'm really glad you talked about something I hadn't heard of before.
Could you get a huge boost on an interstellar trajectory by going close to the sun and using the Oberth effect to slingshot your ship outward?
Didn't it use to slingshot your ship at like the speed of light *5 if you got close to the sun in an old game version?
Yeah there were a couple different ways I knew of. One was manipulating the locations of planets so that they were very close together using the Kopernicus mod.
Yes! It's even a semi-valid technique especially when using ion engines (or electric engines from mods) and need to get to a distant planet from a mod. The swingby not only gives a useful amount of oberth effect but all the solar energy you could ever want.
Jett Quasar ☆ Except you microwave your ship during the maneuver.
Not a real problem.
Hey it’s the starwars guy
We need to send Scott onto the ISS ASAP. Have him play KSP up there as well
I was Orbiting the Sun the other day @ 500,000 meters, Tried to go EVA, and the poor little Kerbal Vaporized instantly.
9:40 - Look how happy that Kerbal is!
I could keep watching this channel
Scott - I've been studying nuclear engineering since Fukushima, and am very familiar with the various stories of criticality incidents, but I'd never heard the reason why a blue flash was seen. Thanks!
sloth0jr I've been interested in the nuclear engineering field, any advice for an electrical engineer wanting to become a nuclear engineer?
Full disclosure - I'm not in a program, I've just been self-studying. That said, I'd start with the following textbooks if you want to get a jump on formalizing your education: "Nuclear Reactor Analysis", Dunderstad/Hamilton, "Fundamentals of Nuclear Science and Engineering", Shultis/Faw for basic processes. "Measure and Detection of Radiation", Tsoulfanidis/Landsberger, give you a focused background on, er, detection and measurement. Lay books that give a bunch of background: "Atomic Awakenings" and "Atomic Accidents" by James Mahaffey gives good history and accidents - they're both very accessible books, and the author is a knowledgable practitioner. "Nuclear Energy: What Everyone Needs to Know", by Charles Ferguson, gives a very concise history of things like the Uranium fuel cycle and general reactor technology, but at a very high level (it's a short book and gets to the point, but it's a book of breadth more than depth).
Checkov radiation?
6:58 and so on: I want those lyrics. :D
Me too!!! Google didn't help. so i'm pretty sure it was Scott's improv.
@@flare242 Pretty sure that it was this "McThiller"(or something) guy's improv.
Wow! That's a lot of G forces. You broke the Mun racing record and made Kerbal Jam at the same time.
Don't the black and white rectangles on the rocket's skin become redundant if the rocket isn't a cylinder? Rolling should be obvious with an X super structure.
Makes it go faster tho :P
Arya Stark True. It also helps finding it if Jeb misplaced it at the pole
Scott you should recreate the ship and mission in the film "Sunshine"! Love that movie be great to see it in KSP🙏🏻
Ye, great movie.
2:05 That Korolev cross is just majestic, no tumbling at all.
More than 1 frame per second! That is brill...
FYI on the SL-1 story that Scott talked about: SL-1 was a 3 megawatt US Army test reactor. Apparently during testing, one of the control rods had been sticking so a tech yanked on it to try to free it up a bit. It became unstuck and was subsequently pulled out too far, causing the instantaneous reaction. When it went prompt critical, it generated 20 Gigawatts of power in 4 thousandths of a second. This had the effect of vaporizing all the internal nuclear material and moderating water instantly and sent the entire reactor (20,000 lbs / ~10,000kg) upwards at 27' per second and blowing the top of the reactor off. The supervisor was pinned to the ceiling (as Scott mentioned) with a control rod and another was also found dead when the firemen arrived in response to a fire alarm. One man survived for a short time, but passed away shortly after being rescued. The combination of radiation exposure, blunt force trauma, and being heavily scalded by steam meant he had no chance for recovery. When the investigation started, they knew if was a prompt critical incident by looking at one of the guys gold watch: a significant amount of the metal had been turned to a radioactive gold isotope.
More information on the SL-1 reactor incident can be found online (like here: digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1053436/m1/1/ ).
It took a helluva lot of work to get him un-stuck from the ceiling. Basically had to treat him as radioactive waste afterwards.
"that's awful. It's genius, I love it." =)
Scott any chance on a lesson on liquid fuelled reactors vs solid fuelled reactors please
eyeballs would glow an eerie blue.........that's sooooooooooooo metal dude
That story about the reactor and that song cracked me up.
5:05 "Sh*t, we forgot Galactic Hitman!"
Heat is why I have an AC in my room year round. Even in the Minnesota winters. Although I do turn the compressor off and just run the fan. For some reason I get the hottest room in every house I have lived in, faces the sun all day, top floor, all the vents just dump into it.
You could reduce parachute height to 600 (150 less), becuase you reached the safe speed aroiund 180m above the landing.
Scott, I've also been playing with racing to the Mun for a while now. I can get to the Mun in under 35 minutes, but the return trip takes too long due to problems with heat. I'll try the ablative+radiator concept as that seems to be working really well. I wonder if any incremental gains can be made by doing a turn and burn instead of burning straight up? Although all my fastest runs have been going straight up.
that was awesome run
Love u Scott!!!
I paid for the whole gmeter, I am gonna use the whole gmeter.
Valentina Kermin seemed to enjoy that ride.
i like that the first thing that pops up if you type "KSP into" is "KSP into the sun" like yea i want to see it
Putting the separators near the top... In 2 years of playing KSP, why didn't I think of that?
I once did surface to low Mun orbit in 10 minutes, but that was with KAL overclocking an ion engine with a minimalist craft. When I made a good, alien-looking ship out of silver fairings and Mk1 inline cockpits with only the bubbles showing (and lit), the overclocked ion engine would break free and tear through the rest of the 12-ton ship if I gave it more than about 1/3 throttle.
It really is fascinating watching Patrick Stewart wearing a Death Star shirt while playing Kerbal Space Program
19:20 as he reads out the time, all i see is the look on the kerbin's face xD his whole life has been redefined after that flight
Yeah, the SL-1 reactor incident was sketchy asf. Like the guy hanging from the ceiling for about a week and a 130 degree room, not rotting because he had been sterilized by the radiation.
MillionFoul when did this happen? And did the poor guy die immediately? I came into the comments to look for answers
Shake n Blake l January 3, 1961. It's unknown what killed him first. I like to think that the massive pressure wave it created from all the water flashing to steam and shooting the control rod out knocked him unconscious before he felt anything else. But there's no way to know. It's because of that incident, that all reactors built in America or any similar designs across the world are designed so that even if the most reactive rod in the core (the rod with the most unburned fuel in proximity) is pulled entirely out of the core, it won't go critical. Prompt or otherwise.
It must of hurt
Wait a second. So your telling me, that there was a man who got shafted in the shaft by a shaft? Now I've heard everything.
LOL and I thought Chernobyl was the worst nuclear accident but that guy who got pierced by the control rod is worse.
I have only two things to say,
1. moar boasters.
2. in thrust we thrust.
Massive Mun Rocket?
Or Massive Mun Manned Missile?
When in doubt, strut it out!
Love ya Scott but I die laughing every time somebody sitting at a computer says, "I need a calculator."
This guy just went full kerbal
I tried something similar to this with the Thumper SRB’s, the thing was that I disintegrated at 50km.
Hey Scott, what's your card and CPU to render these images? Nice video :)
Oh my god, Scott... that song. 7/7
If I were to try this, I'd forget the parachute.
Scott Manley the nuclear reactor you talked about is called SR1 and it was done out at the INL. I worked out there for a bit.
That's so tasteless it's almost tasteful...
That's an expensive way to make Kerbal pate, with all those G-forces pulled xD
Oh, man...You killed Jebediah!
Hotblack desiato approved
Good luck beating your previous record.
Hey Scott, open a window...maybe buy a fan? Science that heat problem. :-D
3 years late
MUN !! makes sense, it sounds right!
As soon as this fellow was singing Jon bon Jovi, I had to hit the like and subscribe button.
Random Question for you Scott. I noticed in a previous video you had a Blue Yeti Mic sitting on a shelf, but you record using a Blue Snowball.... but the Yeti is a better Mic in most peoples opinion. So why the Snowball?
That story about the reactor control rod is terrifying, but also fascinating. It shot out of the slot immediately after he pulled it a mere inch too far?
Is it possible to use the Kopernicus mod to put two planets on a collision course? And what would happen when the hit?
would it be possible for you to take out a giant rocket cluster, like the one you launched with, to the moon. then land your capsule on it, docking, and rocket back to earth?
Apollo lunar reentrys had a small entry angle of between 5.3 degrees and 7.7 degrees. So not a lot of room for error at those return velocities.
Doh. Was wondering about the strange triangular ship you can see against the sun at about 5min.
Aliens in Kerbal alert!
Took me another 5 mins to realise it was the cursor.
I so want to play this game, but can’t find the time to get started.
Are you talking about the SL-1 disaster?
Yes he is. That incident kept the US Army from ever having portable reactors and scared the heck out of the naval nuclear community. Surprisingly it was a simple problem to fix. Simply add more shutdown margin with more control rod reactivity. Keeps the reactor subcritical even with a control rod fully withdrawn.
Jtretta And that's exactly what they did. 63 years now, the US Navy has had nuclear powered vessels without major incident.
You say it's too hot? OPEN THE WINDOWS!
you singing that song was actually almost epic
Hey Mr. Manley did or do u you work for nasa or some other space company because how do you know so much of the rocket science behind it all.
I used to do astronomy, but now I write code for a tech company. The rocket science is fun.
How do you get things to snap with explosive bolts togheter sideways? i've tried for like hours yesterday and nothing works, even trying to snap these structural beams to my tripod rocket so they are stable, spent 20min using 4 options, making sure they are all linked togheter. i lauch it. They are not and wiggles like hell until it explodes...
My commute to my old job was longer than the time he got to the moon and back, lol
Whats the fartherest to you get away from earth? can you get stuck in another solar system.
Also is their any way to land back at the launch site?
I believe the answer to doing this faster is very clear, MORE BOOSTERS
I saw the blue on small research reactor on a school field trip,the army reactor you talked about has a youtube video,I served in the USN subs our nuke tpes look down om the army types and us army got out of the reactor biz after the 60's.
Please release a full version of that song 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Hey Scott is there any addon or anything for KSP that fixes the glitch where if i dock crafts together in space sometimes (or if i use fairings on my launch vehicle) the craft begins to shake and it gets more and more violent until the craft shakes itself apart. Its apparent since this glitch is still around in 1.3 that the dev's dont care about it and are going to let it stand. So is there anyway I can manually fix this? like increasing the tolerances in a setting ? Or possibly an addon that stops the shaking.
OK, SpaceX has gonna took far.
Scott, how do you know they see blue flashes if they are dead?
You blew your rod, and impaled Jose. You give nukes...a bad name...
Remember when Scott used to stream....
The girl told Jebediah "take off your spacesuit!" he said "Babes, man's not hot, never hot!"
