Space shuttle: Takes off vertically and lands horizontally.
Matt's SSTO: Takes off horizontally and lands vertically on the moon.
Matt: WELL YOU SEE-
It makes sense, there are no runways on the moon.
Horizontally both ways?
Hey, nothing wring with that.
I just made a rolling rover.
As in a Mun lander that has wheels on all sides and can drive when falling over sideways.
It also has enough RCS thrust to lift off, orient itself in any direction, and do sick backflips.
So it can land and take off horizontally and vertically, and even backwards.
"NASA is looking for a New generation of Mun landers"
NASA is playing KSP
The SLS is such a Kerbal-esque design tho... Take the fuel tank and SRBs from the space shuttle, slap on a Delta IV upper stage, and top it off with a re-skinned Apollo capsule. Totally not limited to the stock Kerbal parts!
InventorZahran 327 the N-1 was just the human way of saying, we don’t have big enough parts, so let’s add MOAR BOOSTERS! :D
The Saturn 5 and Delta were just humans getting TweakScale.
@@InventorZahran those srbs look just like the clysedale srbs though fr
Hey Matt, I just covered the Exodus Space AstroClipper - a 2-stage spaceplane - which will try to build this in reality. I'll pass along your video so they can learn from your techniques.
Wdym
Love your videos
@Caiden Samuel They're using TWO bots now (I've noticed that response every time the first spam reply appears). Clever. Sadly, nobody on this video will be falling for it.
Matt Lowne: "...An SSTO to the mun!"
Me: *likes immediately*
A few months ago, I tried to build a space shuttle orbiter-like vehicle that could land on the moon and fly back. It wasn't as impressive as this SSTO plane, but it did work. Could this work in real life I wonder?
1. the Kerbal Space program is 10 times smaller than the real Solar system
2.normaly you stay with fule in orbit if you land on the mun because you need lesser fuel
3. a ssto is cheaper but needs more fuel
4. A falcon havy will be cheaper
@@thunderbird1921 Yes, but we are a while from being able to use rockets just like normal airplanes and we have MUCH much mode experience with building rockets than spaceplanes.
@Geekimus Prime Atleast Kerbin has the same gravity as earth but for a smaller radius.
@Geekimus Prime Earth's radius is ~ 6300km and kerbin's radius is 600km. Mass of kerbin is 5.29e25 grams. So the gravity is same as Earth ASL in equator.
Captain: "Attention passengers, we are starting the suicide burn phase. We should arrive at the mun in a few seconds."
Passengers: "SAY WHAT!?!?"
When you know nothing about planes and the captain starts using weird terminology
Lol
I'm not sure I'd be any happier if the captain used the term "hoverslam", instead! Aaaaack!
Lol

Matt: Solving global warming with SSTOs
That day you realised that burning fuel is producing CO2 and other greenhouse gases. This is not to mention that nuclear propulsion is used which will generate some sort of pollutant(even if radiation is controlled)
@@alanmakoso1115 I think that a nuclear engines irl would use some light fuel like hydrogen. So, pollution due to fuel would not be a problem
Just use entirely nuclear engines, no fuel burned equals no greenhouse gasses emitted.
That’s not a problem if you made the fuel Out of CO2 and water in the first place.
@@donut5818 If a Nuclear Engine were to explode, it would be the same as a Nuclear Explosion. It would be real life Fallout.
this guy is actually super good. why? he does not beg for subs or likes, he actually has a good personality, he has a nice voice, he does not copy anyone, he is unique and there are so many other reasons why I like these videos by him.
One of my favorite daily routines is to watch Matt Lowne KSP videos on a Saturday morning with a cup of coffee.
Yep
Yep
Yup
you do scratch????
"i'm 59% sure it's going to work" me designing any of my KSP rockets
Me designing literally any ksp craft
I mean matt is not that bad. He could have put another 10% on there
I am 0% sure that my craft will work
I am -100% sure That i will ever get to moon :/
@@Spolarvatska I agree that you will never go to the moon
Here’s a challenge, put an artificial gravity station as close to the sun as can be in orbit. Also if your reading this I like you videos.
Grass Stratzenblitz already did that.
Thats flippin awesome
Stratenblitz made one called Kerbol 0.
@space nerd yes but he didn't use breaking ground so matt could probably make something cooler to go along with it
Nice name
Hey can you do a tutorial on propellers and how to use them effectively?
There are plenty of existing tutorials on how to make stock propellers in vanilla KSP.
no
no
Yes
HOW THE FREAK DID YOU GET THE DLC'S TO WORK!?
When the manouver node doesn’t work then turn the R.A.I.P.I.E.R engines to air breathing mode... then it would’nt take delta v from them
Works every time for me😂😉
Genius
I'm pretty sure the delta-v readout solved itself when he used all of the oxidizer so the RAPIER engines couldn't work anymore.
@Kyp Durron but the thing i said works... and then you dont have to burn all the oxidiser at accent
Lmao yes instead of turning rapiers off just switch them to air breathing so they turn on only on return
I LOVE the landing procedure. Land vertical, tip over, small burn to dampen impact 😂😂😂
Nuclear engines aren't run by reactors, it's run by running hydrogen over uranium heating the fuel, causing thrust when ejected out of a rocket nozzle. 4:38
this
Nuclear fusion engines get even crazier with variable isp deuterium stuff
Since I am a chemistry Nerd, I am easily relatable to this
Except the part about Hydrogen over uranium. If Nuclear engines use Nuclear reactors.
They would need to have a large amount of Uranium, Plutonium, and Thorium to run for long distances.
Although they could of used the type of Nuclear reactor that feeds itself. And nuclear reactors are way too big.
Edit: Sorry I got a little bit too carried away.
@Theminecraftmanishere 8000 cringe bro, cringe
Nuclear engines ARE reactors.
Inside happens a reaction. That's why they are called reactors.
The reaction there is gas is heated up and the exhausted thru the nozzle.
The thermonuclear reaction (aka fission) is that heats up the gas.... therefor nuclear reactor
@@delta9827 you Not only get carried awy but nerded all wrong. Get Back to a textbook and read the chemestry stuff again als.
Based on this comment i'd Not even give you a D in your Score....
Someone how complex can rockets and space be. ksp: Allow me to introduce myself
Infected_Hunter0 Genius more like actual science: introduce myself. Cmon bruh. U really think that a game would be harder than actual astrodynamics and rocket engineering?
It's like the Concorde, the SR-71 Blackbird and a NASA Shuttle had a child of the future. Beautiful.
@Matt: "SSTO are easy to build in real life as they are in KSP!"
Me: "You just said it."
It's funny, this exact week I tried (and failed, I confess) to build an SSTO for 10 tourists for the Mun (and Minmus).
Thanks for doing that for me ^^
Very planey plane Matt! Good job!
Everyday Astronaut: SSTO's Suck!
Matt: SSTO to the Mun!!
this is so cool just like all your stuff, Matt Lowne. love your vids!
Me: "Can't even make a working aircraft"
I don't have OCD myself, but I honestly really appreciate that you didn't misuse the term OCD there. A lot of people don't even realise what it actually is, and it's nice to see someone who actually understands that and is polite about it. Thanks
You should make a big space station that has a parabolic orbit which, at one point on it’s orbit, is about as close to the Sun as Moho, and on another point, out further than Eeloo
Nasa: we need more employees
Me: let me Introduce you to
*Trumpet noises*
Matt
Specific impulse is everything. When you unlock engines with higher ISP, the lower ISP engines become basically obsolete. That is, unless you absolutely need them to escape a planet's or moon's surface, or for manœuverability.
When you were aerobraking and said the word "satisfactory" my brain decided to combine KSP and Satisfactory in my head with elements of Factorio. Wow. I have never been more impressed by my imagination.
I have a series of jets that I make called "wyverns" I did that because I made the wings shaped like stuka wings.
I bet that looks pretty sick! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRWWWWWWWWWWW
11:26 my friend when I'm in a discord call with him and it's silent so he breaks the silence by saying something insane.
Thrust is actually the more correct term for what you are doing. For example in aircraft a prop has power levers, a jet has thrust levers. Rockets produce thrust, engines produce power.
your kerbin orbit entry was smooth!
When you get Matt lownes videos on Friday night rather than Saturday: AMERICA
FUCK YEAH
bunch of kerbals: *stuck on duna*
Matt: makes another SSTO to Mun
I just found this channel and subbed about a month ago but gosh darn I can't stop watching. Keep up the good work, I look forward to your next video!
Thanks alot Matt!! I have exams this week and i didn't get a good score. But this video made my day :D
Anyone of Matt’s subscribers “it has been irrefutably proven that Matt decides to chug 4 sugar filled drinks before he makes a video” he just has so much energy in his videos. Yet not too much, unlike my cousin who starts screaming when he has sugar. I’m actually a type 1 diabetic and so gimme all of the sugar jokes you got! I have 300+ units of insulin, so get to it!
First video I finished!! ( Watched 4 months ago ) you inspired me to play ksp more!!!
I think activating the Rapier engine repaired the delta-v too. It must have re-read the the currently active engines and fixed itself
This is the earliest I've ever been.
11:10 Matt if you had never said this, I would have just assumed "throst" was just the fancy RP way of saying "thrust", like how "clerk" sounds like "clark".
Butter that landing Matt🤣🤣
That mun landing was 👌
Nice SSTO, looks cool
I’m new to the Channel and I don’t know what SSTO stands for oh and I love your channel ❤️
dude you leaving mun looked like the mun was saying:change the world, my final message, goodbye *windows xp shutdown sound*
1) I really appreciate the sped-up VAB at the beginning of the missions. Please keep this in future videos. I definitely miss it looking at the old ones.
2) I notice your wings are straight on instead of angled up slightly. Do you ever give the wings a mounting angle?
Amazing video, you deserve more subscribers
I have the same problem with the man. nodes, i solved it by setting the thrust to 0 of the engines that were turned off.
The maneuver node readout got fixed because the rapiers are effectively dead without oxidizer, so I guess the game stopped calculating them. Right before they flared out the DeltaV stat on the stage list jumped up to 1.7km.
Next time the game sound effects disappear in the recording I vote for noise effects coutesy of Matt!
"59% it works" Honestly, my initial rockets for large payloads always fail on the first try and the 59% is my chance roughly on each iteration to solve more issues until its usable.
Oh heck yes
Thanks for that OCD clarification Matt! Much love
If nasa had Matt ( and wasn't cut down by the Senate) we would be living on Mars already
Regardless, at least we still have SpaceX!
@@3ctjhseolere lol yeah
You can, change and add to the staging inflight, and I would not be surprised if you were to place the rapiers in a new 'no.1' stage, the estimated burntime in the nodes would then be correctly calculated.
The problem "got fixed" when the oxidizer ran out...
Man that thing is so cool
Thanks for the respect for us OCD sufferers, lovely video as always ❤️❤️❤️
Matt is so good and im absolutely terrible
NASA: no no, he’s got a point.
wow that was V-Cool SSTO
Very good video, I liked the design of the SSTO
I'm from Brazil. I love your vídeos !!!!
Thanks so much! I used your tutorial and had a flip happy plane found this and it has worked so far! thanks! got to space and with a few SRBs found a duna way that did not get me adrift in the system of duna
If you manually limit the thrust on the rapiers to 0 rather than just deactivating them it should fix your maneuver node problem. Happens to me all the time.
Early upload? Cool.
You make me laugh, Matt. Keep up the good work. KSP player with 3000 hrs here.
Matt: Next week we will tackle the climate crisis
Also Matt: Proceeds to launch an SSTO to the moon
Hmmmm
Probably pointless me saying this so much later after the video was posted but I think I know what caused the delta-v issue. I found out while trying to first SSTO using your minmus tutorial (great btw) that the delta-v is based on the rapiers' capabilities, not the nuclear engines. Once you burnt out the oxidizer, the rapiers couldn't fire so the game switched to the nuclear engines' delta-v. You can fix this in LKO by switching to rapier air-breathing mode so they cannot operate.
If you haven’t already you should send a 1000 kerbal mission or 500 crew to the mun all at once
Shutdown the reapers and move them to a new staging block. It fixes the Dv issue. Causes it to refresh or something. lol
Love the content Matt! Does anyone know where centre of mass should be in relation to centre of lift, my SSTO's keep back flipping after takeoff...
They should be in the same place, if the center of lift is further forward than the canter of mass it'll want to nose up and it's further back it'll want to nose down.
I had the same issues with mnv nodes and ∆v calculations. The solution is setting the thrust limiter of inactive engines to 0
Damn, you bringing me back to KSP
Kinda irrelevant to the video, but I met an Apollo astronaut today. The command module pilot for Apollo 15, Alfred Worden. I must say, I did freak out a little bit.
Matt Lowne: MOrE pLANeS
Sort of what the shuttle was supposed to be though. Reusable, but it needed to be inspected thoroughly before each flight, and it was quite fragile. Challenger and Columbia losing 14 astronauts. Maybe the only way we'll see people up on the moon again in the coming decades is through private enterprise, Virgin for example. We do need SSTOs in real life though, i'd love to be an old man and take a flight to that ring station in 2001.
That's probably the best way to land lol
Hey Matt Lowne! Could you give me some advice for mun and minmus landings? It would be great if it’s advice that has my Karbals getting back home😂
11:42 es la cara de John wick
Bruh hes does all this crazy stuff while i can't even get a solid orbit
I see that SSTOs always take quite a length of the runway to takeoff. Have you tried to build a STOL SSTO? (STOL is the acronym for Short Takeoff and Landing, in my memory.)
12:40 The Kerbin vs. Mun football match is taking shape...
Yesterday I overengineered a lander and I was able to go to mun and minmus
There is an option that turns on the correct time to burn during a maneuver node burn
Nice! I have build my own SSTO to the Mun too!
Tbh, it looks like a sr-71 blackbird
15:24 I think what fixed it was you ran out of oxidizer so the Rapier engines could not work
Dang. just Yesterday i was thinking about an SSTO based around the general shape of the SR-71. Looks liek you beat me to it.
Isn't England working on a plane like that? The Skylon plane I think it's called.
Conspiracy theory mode: Yeah the US / UK government totally have those already.
Epic.
Epic gamer right here
Spacecord Space+Concord=Spacecord
Matt ypu can activate advanced burn options in the settings btw. It automatically does the 50/50 calculation
I realized during his takeoff, his vernor engines could 've pointed him up to a high take off area
quite a lovely video. Thank you! =)
I bought this game a while back but never played it. Your videos always make it look super interesting and fun! I'm about to dive in for the first time!
Matt, did you mean to not put rudders on your vertical stabs? Other than that, nice aircraft.
Do one of those but to mars!
remember when people faked failed landings so matt would rescue them? lmao now real ones dont even answer him
