Video Summary:
The SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft is now launching astronauts from American soil. The Spacecraft has two parts: the capsule and the trunk. The capsule can fit a crew of four. The trunk has the radiator panels and the solar panels. The Spacecraft is launched aboard the Falcon 9 Rocket which is a 2 stage rocket. The launch happens in Florida at Launch Complex 39A. The Transporter Erector moves the rocket from the Horizontal Integration Facility right up next to the Fixed Service Structure. The astronauts get to ride in a Tesla Model X. They take the elevator up to the top and then walk across the Crew Access Arm to get to the White Room. This is where Crew Ingress will happen. From launch to orbit takes about 9 minutes. Over the following 24 hours the Crew Dragon will catch up and dock to the International Space Station. First the series of 3 waypoints, then Crew Hands Off Point (CHOP), then Soft Capture and then Hard Capture. Then say hi to the astronauts that are already on board the station.

Wow 😳
😮
Cool playlist, great videos
I like your Space animation, It is Great Full and also enjoyable
So where is the brillant link?
No one has ever described the Dragon spacecraft in such detail that it can be easily understood. You have described its details, internal and external affairs in a very detailed and comprehensive manner with 3D graphics.
it's jared just done it.
Thank you! I hope this is a good video for someone that really doesn't know much about Crew Dragon
Agreed, was going to say the same thing, I'll just add it here. This is really helpful for perspective.
@@JaredOwen Video idea: Watt's Steam Engine. It was made in 1769 by James Watt. It would be really cool to see it!
Ikr
Another phenomenal animation Jared! Wow, I am always blown away by the explanation and detail you put into these. You're on a different level man. Hats off to you.
thanks matt!
oh my god is that matt from wii sports that beats my ass everytime?
SO TRUE
@@JaredOwen bro, well done man, amazing work, but do you have the video trajectory animation when Dragon is deorbiting and splashing down? Thanks! Subbed! 💯
Is it computer animation or heaps and heaps of Lego with anti aliasing? 😀
Your videos should be used in schools. The animation is so clear and detailed. Not to mention it keeps my attention with the narration. Great, great job. 👍
I agree, they are 1000% better than anything we had 40 years ago, and probably even more better than the crap kids get today.
Agreed. And not just this video. Animations and clear, well-spoken and paced videos like this would be incredibly useful for kids in numerous areas, like history, mathematics, sciences, even arts.
Correct this priceless video
Yep my kid has learned SO MUCH about rocket ships from this channel 😍
As a space and astronomy enthusiast I really appreciate your videos, the effort and the hard work that you have put to it, Just brilliant. Keep it coming.
I just would like to say thank you Jared. I am legally blind and thus can never see 3D animations.... until you've come along. Somehow, I can actually see and follow along with your animations. You show a large picture, then slowly, but smoothly, zoom in to show it in more detail. Everyone just does quick cuts and small arrows to point out things which I never can folliw along with as. Instead, you notably change the opacity of items and slowly fade out uneeded elements rather than just quickly cutting them out. The result is that your eye can easily follow where you're supposed to look and isn't just dotting around the screen trying to figure what exact part you're talking about. I appreciate how everything is made with high contrast and every element is distinctly colored to appear different from any surrounding details.
Overall, I can't thank you enough. I've never been able to understand what I'm looking at and thus struggled to learn how these things work. You've made learning fun and obtainable. That alone grants you a lot of respect from me.
thank you Zunar! Glad I could make a difference
@@JaredOwen Wait I have a question, this video was originally recorded in Spanish or English is very confusing
you're pointed out the challenges which would be useful, to film makers
Good on you and yes I think this is great .
@@davidarreola2408English
I love how you even had the falcon land a little off center like it usually does! Your attention to detail is unbelievable. 👌
Thanks David
How comes it actually lands off center anyway?
@@TheSkillMasterHD Its a safety protocol. When falcon is coming in it actually aims itself off target from the barge into the water.
This is so if the landing burn doesn't ignite for whatever reason, it wont crash into the drone ship and destroy it. If and/or when the engine ignites and starts up...the falcon has permission to self correct itself and aim for the droneship at the last second. You can actually watch this happening in the webcast from the ground view...as it swoops in horizontally from the side
@@DorkJelly And, of course, they don't bother with the offset on land-landings, since it doesn't really matter what part of the pad it hits...
he missed the starship water deluge manifolds :-) but got the 4 bigs tanks
It’s just dawning on me how significant re-usability is in spacecraft.
Been playing KSP and learning a lot more about space hardware for reference (mainly to make my stuff look better lol). Playing career mode with expensive and massive disposable single-use rockets hurt because of how many parts I lose from staging. Whenever I have to launch for science/data, I squeeze each mission for as much as I can because I know I’m losing money because of it.

Make sstos with nuc engines
Absolutely fantastic, Jared! I used to build rockets with Estes with my son 20 years ago. These brilliant animations serve as an educational tool simplified for old and young alike. Keep up the great mission! Thank you!
I must say, animation is one thing (on point btw) but the ease at which it is to follow while explaining informatively is the true expertise here. Well done as always.
Thank you!
how much does each mission cost
@@zhilinyang9397 20 dollar
Jared you’re a true craftsman and artist. Your expression of thoughts and engineering through these animations is truly next level. Better than I can even explain things I understand with my words. Truly remarkable
Each aspect of his videos, from the animation, to understanding the material, to being able to explain it like, are all themselves skills worthy of full time professional jobs. And he wraps them all up in one like this.
Thank you Joltran!
HELLO and THANKS.
At 85 years of age, I appreciate your magnificent video.
As a kid in London, I saw a “Spitfire” fighter in the sky many times .
Now I have seen History in the making, as Space X docks with the ISS.
Having watched a three hour long, “Live” recorded video of the launching and docking, …
I learned so much more watching your version of the same sequence.
I may never have a Journey Into Space, but my Grandchildren, will never see a “Spitfire” fly.
Excellent video.
maybe a f22 now
WOW, WOW, and Triple WOW! This is the best and most detailed video I’ve ever had the privilege of watching! THANK YOU Jared for all of your research and countless hours it takes to produce and post such AMAZING videos! Your attention to detail is Stunning.
The engineers who conceptualized, designed, built, tested, and continue to evolve this are very cool people.
agreed.
But the engineers from the Shuttle and Apollo programs weren't??? Was it the thin neckties and buzz cuts? what if they ran around in T shirts and shorts during critical phases and press opportunities? Just curious why you think these 20 somethings are so cool? I mean we all played with rockets when we were kids right?
@@gendaminoru3195 Apollo yes, Shuttle not so much.
@@gendaminoru3195 what
have you seen them? some of them are very hot aswell!
There is no competition. You make the best 3d animation videos and I just want you to keep making them. Thank you a ton
😀
There IS a very strong competitor: Animagraffs
@@cheesebusiness i was about to comment this, my guy has a way with 3d animation, Jared is no less impressive
True, animagraffs is pretty great. But Jared's videos have it's own charm. I like both
You're GENIUS ! How you make these animations so perfectly, is way beyond me! THANK YOU FOR THEM
It's called computer software
This is the BEST introdcutory to SpaceX manned missions I have ever seen! Great graphics, great narration, everything accurate as far as I can tell.
I had a bad day, but this cheered me up.
Thanks Jared!
I hope I made your a little better!
@@JaredOwen by the way, are we going to get a remake of how the Apollo Moon missions worked? It seems like a great choice to remake it
@@TheMemeDynamics agreed! And we need a video in the SLS!
not even watched it yet but already sure I'll learn something new today
Hands down the best channel on TH-cam! I’m just now seeing this channel for the first time and absolutely mind blowing how awesome this is.
Can't imagine how much effort being put to the work of this video. Very well experienced! Thank you!
First Apollo,
Then Space Shuttle,
Now Crew Dragon!
WOW
Edit: To clear confusion, I'm referring to the American spacecraft that Jared made videos on.
And Soyuz...
@@Cl0ud897Think the comment is referring to the innovation of American spacecraft over the years
Bring on SLS, Orion and HLS
First was mercury. If you thought Soyuz was tight. Mercury astronauts claimed that you didnt go in the capsule, you wore it, the. Gemini was also tight and you had to be crushed up. A crew spent two weeks in it
@@TaurusSpace I know, but I think Soyuz is the only non-american spacecraft on this channel, so it's kinda strange to exclude it from the list
Outstanding work once again Jared!!
Super detailed, lots of info and your 3D modelling skills always blow us away!
job well done my friend
Thanks Matthew!
So easy to understand the world with your work... Genius, Thanks! (and the only little mistake I could find was the fact that Elon didn't found tesla but by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning; he arrived after the first roadster and changed the company for what we know today)
Recently discovered this channel and so far it is one of the most detailed and immersive videos ever
16:54 The Dragon 2 cargo spacecraft also docks at the IDAs. The on orbit Crew Dragon will sometimes switch from the forward port on Harmony (IDA-2) to the zenith port (IDA-3) when either a cargo Dragon or another Crew Dragon docks to the forward port (IDA-2). All of the assigned crew for that Crew Dragon will enter the spacecraft as it moves from one port to the other, in case it has problems redocking.
Kudos to you Jared. It's need a lot of work, attention to details and motivation to produce this high level of graphic and video. Great job man
😀
No questions left - thx from Germany!
Thank you for making this video available in multiple languages, including Japanese. I appreciate the effort to include a Japanese audio track, and the pronunciation is quite good. However, there are several inaccuracies in the reading of kanji characters, which can make the content confusing for native Japanese speakers. It might be more understandable for us to listen to the English version until these issues are addressed. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to seeing improvements that will help all viewers enjoy your content even more.
It always fills with joy, when as an avid follower of spaceflight, I get to learn something new. Amazing visualization of docking, I feel like I understand it way better than before.
Awsesome content Jared!
From one Blender creator to another you give us Inspiration.
we love your work too Aitelly.
damn you followJared too.
Great to see you here!
AiTelly love you Work too😉
yeah Glad to see you here😌
Really love your Videos too @Aitelly
This was incredibly informative. Knowing all this makes watching launches much more enjoyable. Thank you!
Really thank you so much for the video Jared ! Great Job !!! 😃
Stopping by just to say that your hard work educates so many people. Thank you.
“The most exciting part of every launch is the liftoff.”
It is exciting indeed, but personally I think the landing is more exciting. Always amazed to see the booster land on a barge in the middle of nowhere.
Landing is pretty exciting too😎
Always get goosebumps on landing burn until touchdown, pretty marvelous to watch.
Jared, congratulations on your phenomenal 3D animation video on TH-cam! Your detailed explanation of SpaceX Dragon's launch, rendezvous, and docking with the ISS is truly impressive. Your animation work made the complex processes involved not only accessible but utterly captivating.
I was completely taken aback by the quality and depth of the video. In fact, I found it even more fascinating than watching the real thing. The way you break down each step and visually represent it allows for a greater appreciation of the intricacies involved in such an endeavor.
Your work clearly shows a great deal of talent, dedication, and understanding of the subject matter. Keep it up - I can't wait to see what you create next!
P.S. Although this post was written with the help of ChatGPT, it expresses exactly how I felt when I watched this awesome video. Thank you, Jared!
I love the detail that Cargo Dragon has half the number of fins, great way to determine which is which besides the small windows.
10:48 Actually Elon didn’t found Tesla. It is a common misconception, and a lot of people think that Elon founded Tesla, but the original founders were Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning. Elon became a big investor of Tesla, and was pretty high up on the list of potential replacement CEO’s. Tesla started going through hard times financially, and it was in and out for CEO’s until it got to Elon. Elon saved the company and revolutionized the automotive industry.
Sorry, I just had to say that. Other than that one small detail, your videos are amazing! They are really informational and fun to watch! Keep up the good work!
I’m post op second retinal detachment. I needed this. Thanks Jared. Can see it out of my good eye
Always a great job of animation, presentation and clarity. No boring moments. So much to learn from your presentations.
Massive respect to everyone at spaceX invovled that made this happy! an incredible feat of human engineering!!
Hi Jared,
I’m from Germany and I love your videos so much. I don’t know any TH-camr who creates such great 3D animated videos about technical principles etc. I searched so long time for someone who explains these things and I am so excited when you loaded up new videos.
Greetings from Bärenstein.
Thank you for descriping so accurately and sharing info that we dont get almost anywhere else. I totally see you as leading space animator in future.
Все думал что это реальный русско-язычный чел озвучивает, но из-за нескольких странных ударений и произношений слов понял, что озвучка от ИИ)
Сама история с Crew Dragon очень интересная - спасибо! Хоть так приобщиться к космическим технологиям - на какое-то время даже представил себя в качестве астронавта)
Thank you so much jared.I love all your videos and its very informative.Visual representation clears all the doubts we have in mind.Appreciate your hard work to create these animations.
Good for me learn something like this helps me in the future in case i make a journey to space
Great video!
Simple, clear and slow so that everyone understands.
No stress, loud music or anything else that just disturbs or destroys.
Have a great day and evening!
This is just incredible! The level of automation and lack of onboard control panels, controls and switches compared to say the Space Shuttle is just astonishing!
Very nice Jared. I'll be recommending to friends. This should be required viewing for any beginners looking to get into the Space Enthusiast Community. Easy to understand, calm and careful without any hype. Love it.
So amazingly comprehensive, and beautifully animated, this deserves like a million views at least!
Hats off to you ! This is by far the best and most easily understood animation and description I've ever seen on this subject. And I've watched a lot of them ! Didn't take me long to decide to subscribe. Again, brilliant ! Keep up the good work !
thanks for the sub John!
This is so beautiful! Now I can replicate it on KSP. Thank you again, Jared!
Everything about SpaceX blows my mind. It's mind boggling how much research and R&D goes into this. It's such an accomplishment because there's so many things that can go wrong, but it works.
Wow, those 19 minutes just flew by, what an absolutely fantastic video!
These keep getting better and better. I cannot express how thankful I am for these animations.
This video is perfect! Keep doing what your doing. This helped me explain to friends and family how this all works. They didn't understand my space jargon, but I had them try, and they watched the video, and now you got their attention. lol.
Thanks Bud!

Wow!! Can’t say enough about this animation!! Incredible and awesome work Jared!
Subscribed 👍
I'm happy that I could help creating this amazing piece!
Thanks Flo - the feedback you gave was super helpful!
10:48 small error, Tesla wasn't founded by Musk
I truly love your work, man!!! 🙏Thanks so much for all the effort!! It’s amaaaazing!!!
Thank you Jared, for taking the time to put together this great video!!!
Отличная графика. Много интересных и наглядных подробностей. Спасибо!
Very nice Jared. I might add that all manned spacecraft (including Boeing's CST-100 Starliner) except Dragon have a service module filled with expensive items like oxygen & fuel tanks, thrusters and electronics. Only the Dragon, does not have such valuable equipage destroyed upon reentry, with such equipment located in the capsule. The Dragon Trunk except for solar cells and heat-removal radiators, is nothing more than a structural element with fins to provide aerodynamic stability during an emergency abort and storage space for none-pressurized cargo. There is no thruster on the trunk, hence there is no way for the Dragon to reboost the ISS while docked. The CST-100 design has many expensive components in the disposed of service module including the four Rocketdyne RS-88 abort engines. The CST-100 can however, reboost the ISS. Another often overlooked element of the Falcon 9 is the thrust of the second stage engine. The Merlin Vacuum has a thrust of 220,500 lbf (981 kN). That is a large and powerful engine for a second stage. The Atlas V for example, is usually equipped with one RL10C 2nd stage engine, with a vacuum thrust of only 22,900 lbs (101.8 kN). To launch the CST-100 the Atlas V 2nd stage must be fitted with two RL-10s engines at significant additional expense to cover a larger range of abort parameters. The F-9/Dragon has been designed for low cost and maximum reuse. Not so much for the Starliner.
Indeed
Which I like it
Space x is awesome
thanks, when I heard that they use it for storage I was wondering how to they get stuff out of the trunk?
@@climatixseuche The Mobile Servicing System or Canadarm2, is able to remove and move the items.
Parabéns pela animação, explicação e fantástica a Space-X com toda a sua tecnologia.
It’s almost like being there. Incredible. This is what technology is all about.🙏
12:59 idk, I would argue the most exciting part of a Spacex launch is the booster landing….
The landing is pretty cool too!
@@JaredOwen I mean, every rocket launches. But only one rocket lands. Great video btw! Love your stuff!
@@ryanhamstra49 The Blue Origin sub-orbital, staight up-n-down New Shepard rocket lands as well. It is WAY easier than what the Falcon 9 does. The Space Shuttle also landed, so was partially reusable.
@@steveaustin2686 ok fine. Only orbital rocket that currently lands. Happy? 😆
@@ryanhamstra49 Just wanted to be clear. 😎
I just watched Crew 6 launch and dock. This animation does a good job of explaining the details. Thank you.
Was hoping to get all the way back to splashdown. Love the video and explanations. Great work.
Nice video. Good job. Clear explanation without excessive details. Excellent! Thanks!
Another amazing animation! Great job! I would love to see one of Spacex Starship soon.
Excellent video as always. So excited to see Space X stuff. Can you do Starship?
Thank you! Great visuals and clear commentary! Look forward to when you can do this for manned Starship flights!
Privacy is somewhat limited when it comes to the toilet? I'll say. There's theater seating, and you're the main attraction.
I mean it’s similar to the old apollo crafts. You just gotta do what you gotta do
@@keybdid Apollo even have toilets?
Thanks for helping the whole world. I can't imagine how many people will benefit from this.
Your videos are just fantastic! i.e. a combination of wonderful animation with clear, measured, and perfectly paced narration.....It's like your a great teacher taking his time to answer a student's questions as clearly and completely as possible....very well done and much appreciated!
Yes you have done the best and to explain as most about the great launch pad job.
The detail and explanation of this animation are fantastic. You are a great animator.👍
Pure genius and artistry. Nicely done.
Very professionally done, informative and enjoyable to watch. I like your animations, Jared.
This is absolutely fascinating and informative. Thank you for your hard and impressive work.
That was a simply magnificent video. From start to finish. Informative. Smooth. Completely understandable. I salute you, sir.
Very interesting Jared. Thanks for all your work in preparing this video and explanation of how it all works.😀
As always phenomenal work! I love your content keep it up!
thank you Rafael!
Awesome, amazing. These animations are just mind blowing and so satisfying. Thanks a lot for doing this.
You are without a doubt one of the best teachers/ animators I’ve ever seen your work looks beautiful and it’s incredibly comprehensive and on top of that you make it entertaining to watch which isn’t exactly an easy thing to do your so talented when It comes to all of this you should be teaching your just so good at it
I like how you keep it simple and the pictures make a big difference Thankyou
Great video. I hope that you will do Starliner or Orion next. Keep up the good work.
Great job, Jared! Your animations and narrations are truly awesome!
An amazing explanation through animation, i was here right after i watched ‘Return to space’ waiting for more detailed animation videos.
Amazing content mate!
God bless you for your animation Jared 🔥
Gracias por el doblaje del audio hermano, realmente mereces mucho más apoyo👍
What?
Al fin un comentario en español
Your animations are precious masterpieces of high quality education Jared. Thank you so much for all of them!
Phenomenal creation of animation with detailed explanation. Thanks for posting.
14:11 The first stage of Falcon 9 can also do a RTLS (Return To Launch Site) maneuver which requires three engine burns. One to flip the stage and return the rocket to the launch site,, the second is the engine burn and the third is the landing burn.
It's not done on dragon missions
Clear, Animatied Visual with Concise Verbal Instructions/Explainations is THE BEST WAY OF GETTING SOMETHING ACROSS WITHOUT CONFUSING A STUDENT.
Thank you so much for this peaceful explanation
Absolutely Loved it. Great explanation and attention to detail!
You gave more information about SpaceX and you explained very well..Thank you so much❤❤❤
That was a cool video, thanks for the hard work you put into making it! Very informative!
Great video Jared! Just a note that once the first stage lands on the drone ship there is what is called the Octograbber which is a robot that comes out and grabs hold of the booster to keep it from moving around on the drone ship as it returns to port. However no one knows what the Octograbber looks like(at least I have yet to see any photos or videos of it)
Ahh interesting, I figured something would have to latch it down or else it would tip over
@@JaredOwen I've been a huge SpaceX fan for a while now. And the Falcon 9 rocket as well as the Falcon Heavy rocket has become my favorite rocket. SpaceX has only added the Octograbber robot in I believe 2021 to the drone ship because the first few rockets that landed would come back into port either on their sides or completely fell off the ship due to the rough waves. So SpaceX came up with the robot to solve this problem and as I a stated unfortunately I have yet to see what this robot looks like. All I know is that on the ship once the rocket has landed one of the side compartments on the ship opens its door and the Octograbber rolls out and positions itself under the rocket and grabs hold of it to keep it from sliding around. On the live video feeds of when the ship comes back into port you can kinda see the top of it but nothing else.
@@JaredOwen they didnt use to have the octo grabber, then one fell over on the back to port after landing
there are plenty of pics of it if you google spacex octagrabber
NASASpaceflight has contributors in Florida who photograph the drone ships when they return to port. They get side shots and some aerial shots, have taken some good pics of the Octograbber. It's in a shielded "garage" and is powered by a heavy cable pulled behind it.
It is an amazing video, explanation and narration. Jared, please, keep up doing the great job.
