I switched to the actual NASA stream thinking they might be discussing some actual science about their big expensive rocket. Instead it was some tik tok type trying to take a selfie with a plastic moon. Instantly switched back here. You guys are the real NASA stream now 🚀
going back and watching launches and i miss Chris G in the live streams! his emotion just made you feel the importance of what is/was going on. His knowledge too was cool to hear when he dropped them.
I thought the JWST was a good launch ( and it was ) BUT THIS LAUNCH !!!!!!!!! THIS LAUNCH WAS ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR !!!!!! To anyone and every one who made this launch happen , THANK YOU !!!!!
THANK YOU to every scientist, to every engineer, to every technician, to NSF, to NASA, to the astronauts who are training, testing…pushing the limits …and the thousands of people behind the scene who helped this project.
When she announced that Artemis was a go for launch... tears burst! It's wild how moved I am by this. Something about thousands of enthusiastic people working together in sincerity to create this monumental accomplishment. ❤
I always dreamed of being alive to see the Saturn 5 moon rocket. Now today we have the SLS and going back to the moon. We are seeing history here! I’m not lying if I didn’t say it brought a tear to my eyes. These guys were lost for words and many other people were so emotional they couldn’t talk. I hope we can rally over the moon mission and stop everything the day that rocket flys and watch as one country. This is amazing
That launch sequence, the slow liftof. It was perfect - the most incredible thing I've ever seen! Thank you so much to the whole NSF team, you are absoloute heros. All of you. :)
@@johnpooky84 Yeah, rewatching now, the TWR is actually pretty high. Felt super slow in the moment though, chances are the ignition sequence made it feel slower.
considering that We have never been to the Moon, there is No chance of going in the future. this Rocket is simply sending the latest in Spy Satellites into our Earth Orbit. the Hunter of Information Warfare.
@x zerstöre doch nicht die Träume von anderen sie oder er hat hier ja auch nicht behauptet das diese erste Artemis Mission bemant were ! Dennoch hat sie er recht wir kehren zurück ! Kannst das nicht ändern es ist so !
@x they just mean this is the first step. The next flight will have people and goto the moon then after that flight 3 will be an attempt to land. So we are going back. Also they do have crash dummies on this flight so we are sorta going back
Back to the moon. Finally. I saw the Apollo missions when I was young and later worked at NASA as a flight software engineer. I thought this day would never come again in my lifetime. It sure took long enough. God speed to all who ride her in the future.
I'm so so happy to be able to experience this in my lifetime. This is... I don't even have words. Congratulations and thank you to everyone who was a part of this!!!
Wow. Just wow. I don't care how cliché this is, but that was UNREAL! We've seen all the animations, and and stuff about it, but the SRB boom, and seeing it lift off the pad just felt like it surely couldn't be happening. Great job to all the people involved in this and thanks NASASpaceflight for the coverage and entertaining commentating.
They're too busy destroying reusable shuttle engines to care about any of that. Woe betide anyone who gets into that on the basis of one successful single use launch. It's going to end in tears.
i don't understand why they're pushing ahead with a single use rocket when reusable is proven technology at 1/10th the cost. it's an apollo fanboy project. how can the tax payer prevent this continuing? do we have any democratic means whatsoever to end it?
why is this rocket still a thing? Shouldn't nasa just put an order in for a few Starships and begin construction of some inflatable habitats to deliver to the luna surface, instead of messing about with expendable discarded shuttle shuttle parts from the 1980s? it's unbelievable that even one of these fireworks was paraded to the launch pad, to say nothing for building more for no obvious reason besides being locked into an utterly pointless project to repeat what their grandparents did in the 60's.
What a launch and what a stream. Thanks to NASA for a spectacular launch, well done! And many many thanks to everyone at NSF, you're streams are always amazeballs and this one was memorising and filled with heart-felt emotions ❤
Seeing Orion in space once more is sooo good! I was full of woounderful emotions bringing back memories 8 years ago watching it on the NASA stream and still remember when NASA showed Earth 3000 km from Orion.
Thank you @NasaSpaceFlight for your coverage. Also, I fell asleep during the t-10:00 hold and missed my gift membership. Thank you @Daniel Weir for the gift membership
@@vail8150 they do just wait till the five the replays today. A lot of times the live feeds arnt the best on a launch till they have time to process the data. They have video of the whole thing g of many angels
@@rickandbrandonshow thanks for letting me know. The launch sequence camera views were disappointing but then I stayed up all night waiting for the launch….🚀
Wow,Bob Sieck,Mr "Let's light this candle" A term he often used so many times in the 80's when he referred to the Space Shuttles as they counted down to launch..
Congrats to all of you experiencing this historical moment! Feeling the excitement, the pride, and the awe of this magical moment. This is my second rodeo. For me the only difference between Apollo and Artemis is the pride. Back then, it was Americans going to the moon. Today it is the World going back to the moon, and this time to stay. The only crticism that I have is that NASA could learn a few things from SpaceX about presentation. At least give us a speed and altitude display in the corner!
Lol yes. Typical horrible government aesthetics. Their mission control looks like it hasn't been updated since the 80s, the NASA on screen graphics look like a DOS terminal and the Artemis logo is so boring. But cool that the rocket launched 😊
Just catching up on my Artemis streams and I gotta say that was an awesome intro speech! Hats off Chris : ) I was up at 7:30am local time, ignoring my alarm, so it was T+30min when I tuned in. Was spectacular watching that beast launch, those SRBs don't fuck-about! Out of there quick! Was there a visible shockwave when they lit?
This was an historical launch for me: it's the first NASA launch since the Shuttle era that I genuinely thought was going to be scrubbed again for some reason, went to sleep, didn't even bother setting the clock alarm... and they actually decided to go for it! Anyway, it's a night launch, and onboard footage isn't usually great, but I'll gladly try to find the time to listen to all the talking...
That thing was absolutely NOT hanging around on the launch pad any longer past T:+00.00.00 than necessary! Those SRBs pretty much ripped the worlds biggest, most powerful rocket right off the pad like it was nothing!
One more time, this is a big huge technological breakthrough, and a lot of congratulations to the Industrial Engineers and to the NASA, by this one genius breakthrough in this world, and a big greeting to ours countries United States=Guatemala.
An incredible waste of money. 4 BILLION per launch. , or to put it another way, 40 brand new state of the art hospitals per launch. NASA has no shame at all. They think this is a triumph of money-spending.
@@NCC_1701 Do you have a clue how much money is spent by the military industrial complex? There are plenty of extremely wasteful federal sectors. This is one of the few that directly benefits humanity in technological development and long term exploration. It is not the most deserving of ire, not by a long shot.
@@maxv9464 It directly benefits no one, all the benefits of spaceflight to the Moon were made in the 60's and 70's. This is just an expensive and pointless re-treading of history with no tangible benefits for anyone other than grandkids of moon walkers stroking their ego at NASA. Existing SRB technology, check, existing Shuttle engines, check, existing hydrogen tank, check, existing literally everything, check. About the only difference here is a glass cockpit and using a Mars-class interplanetary ship as a lander. What the hell is the point in using Space X's lander when the astronauts can just get into it on Earth and do the whole trip in Starship without Artemis anyway?!
@@NCC_1701 Starship is unlikely to be crew certified for a long time There are absolutely benefits to be had. For one thing, it's excellent practice for Mars. We're going to need some way to sustain food growth, nutrient recirculation and base construction. And for another, development of all of those will pan out in entirely new innovations. The key is not going to the moon, it's STAYING Also Orion required a number of new developments beyond the old CSM
@@maxv9464 And yet NASA will crew-certify SLS after only one launch which was so successful it took 4 attempts including sending in a bunch of redshirts with a spanner to fix a pressure leak on a fully fuelled vehicle. NASA spends tens of billions to create a prototype vehicle with no room for failure. At best they might have 4 billion funding for a 2nd attempt if a single point of failure destroys the prototype, and a 2 year turnaround with the goal of $4bn per launch for as long as the funding holds out. SpaceX creates a system in which test vehicles cost millions, not billions, with the end result of a vehicle in which most of the cost is fuel, intentionally testing them to failure so they can systematically identify exactly where the failures are, and at the end of the process can create around 400 fully fuelled Starships for the price of one NASA cross-your-fingers rocket which likely won’t even go into double figure production. You would need to have some pre-existing bias or romantic relationship with NASA to side with their absolutely failure at securing cheap and reliable access to space.
holy cow it actually worked! bummer I felt as sleep while waiting to watch it, suck that they launched at night! Would have been beautiful during day time. Now it's SpaceX Starship's turn, hopefully next month!
Back to the MOON! At least the unmanned ship is. I look forward to some great photography coming from this mission! I watched the Apollo launches as a kid! On a B&W TV (my parents let me stay up late to watch them). We should have continued on to establish a Moon Base/Colony! Imagine what it would be like by now! BTW, my 64th Birthday is in 5 days! 🥳 Hope we get to see boots on Regolith in the near future! 🧑🚀 After sitting here reflecting on it for a few minutes, remembering sitting on the floor in front of that old Zenith "box" with my parents (now deceased) on the couch behind me (can still see it all in my mind's eye, the bookcase behind the TV, the '60s vintage Turquoise vertical blinds to the left), I admit I'm getting a little choked up! 😢
Hard work, but so many fancy things that only add polish, not function. Let's work very hard to control the costs... Great launch...congratulations all.
Congrats for the next 3 month, give or take some, SLS will be the biggest rocket currently in service! Correction at 10:10:08: SLS is not the biggest rocket ever flown, thats still Saturn V. But it is a mighty Launch and I love it!
Excellent work NASA and all at hand to make it happen, finally……….well sent and so worth the wait! Saturn V and Shuttle would be extraterrestrially proud of your 1st ARTEMIS flight!! 🚀 And yes Extraterrestrially is a word…… well, it is now. 🤣👌🌏🌔
Great stream but felt you could have waited for the TLI burn, one of the most important parts of the mission. Would you have ended the stream if there was a hold for launch?
Thankyou for this new era in space stuff AND Thankyou to the tireless work of Colin MaKellar who keeps packing a website used by countless people and organisations which contains ALL the interesting space stuff of the past. Do yourself a favour and check out how it used to be done. APOLLO AND EVERYTHING ABOUT IT and soooo much more
I’ve been waiting to see this for years. Ever since it was announced. Watched the previous attempts to launch. And I missed this because I got the time wrong. It’s been a bad day. One hit after another. 😞
My only complaint about this is that they did this at night. I know they have narrow launch windows in order to get the ship on the right trajectory, but it just doesn't make sense for such a monumental mission to take place at night when we won't get any good footage of the rocket during launch, just a trail of fire. Plus, some of us have to work in the morning, so we had to sleep through it, and couldn't watch it live.
^ This comment fully demonstrates how dumb some Americans are. You really think that going to the moon is just a Hollywood show which should be scheduled according to the needs of couch potatoes??? You know nothing about science. You know nothing about engineering. You know nothing except your own selfish little bubble where everything has to happen for you! Grow up and get a life!
@@kc5402 Astro acknowledged the need to meet a particular launch window. That said, if this was only about the science and engineering, NASA wouldn't provide continuous public broadcasts. The tax payer needs to be entertained.
@@PreposterousPotato Maybe for some people. But since I couldn't be there in person, I couldn't see much. But I still believe that NASA would have been better served launching this during the daytime. This is literally the inaugural mission of a brand new space program for NASA, and deserved as much media attention as it could have gotten. That way, it would generate renewed interest in NASA and space exploration, and put pressure on Congress to increase funding for the agency, so they could launch two or three times per year (like they did with Apollo), instead of one every year or two (like the current plan is).
@@PreposterousPotato And I do agree that getting the ship on the proper trajectory also takes priority. It's also a little frustrating when they scrub a launch. If you take time off of work to watch it, and they scrub the launch, you basically wasted a day off from work.
Thanks!

Thanks NASA
Back to the MOON! At least the unmanned ship is. I look forward to some great photography coming from this mission! I watched the Apollo launches as a kid! On a B&W TV (my parents let me stay up late to watch them). We should have continued on to establish a Moon Base/Colony! Imagine what it would be like by now! BTW, my 64th Birthday is in 5 days! 🥳 Hope we get to see boots on Regolith in the near future! 🧑🚀 After sitting here reflecting on it for a few minutes, remembering sitting on the floor in front of that old Zenith "box" with my parents (now deceased) on the couch behind me (can still see it all in my mind's eye, the bookcase behind the TV, the '60s vintage Turquoise vertical blinds to the left), I admit I'm getting a little choked up! 😢
I set an alarm especially for this so I am extremely tired right now but my goodness was it worth it. Orange rocket good!
Fantastic poem
Wow, what's the great moment!
Amazing! Great coverage guys. Get some rest.
Hard work, but so many fancy things that only add polish, not function. Let's work very hard to control the costs...
Great launch...congratulations all.
That was bright!
Waited so long for this and I slept through it 😭😭😭 congrats humans for this 🥳🥳🥳
I got the time wrong when attempting to convert EST to GMT!
Congrats for the next 3 month, give or take some, SLS will be the biggest rocket currently in service!
Correction at 10:10:08: SLS is not the biggest rocket ever flown, thats still Saturn V.
But it is a mighty Launch and I love it!
IIRC it has a higher thrust than the Saturn V
We've done it boys
@NasaSpaceFlight Would love a poster with Chris G's opening statement for the broadcast. ❤
Excellent work NASA and all at hand to make it happen, finally……….well sent and so worth the wait!
Saturn V and Shuttle would be extraterrestrially proud of your 1st ARTEMIS flight!! 🚀
And yes Extraterrestrially is a word…… well, it is now. 🤣👌🌏🌔
amazing just amazing
Great stream but felt you could have waited for the TLI burn, one of the most important parts of the mission. Would you have ended the stream if there was a hold for launch?
Thankyou for this new era in space stuff
AND
Thankyou to the tireless work of Colin MaKellar who keeps packing a website used by countless people and organisations which contains ALL the interesting space stuff of the past. Do yourself a favour and check out how it used to be done. APOLLO AND EVERYTHING ABOUT IT and soooo much more
It just amazing....waiting for the lunch of Starship Super Heavy .
Finally not another delay
I’ve been waiting to see this for years. Ever since it was announced. Watched the previous attempts to launch. And I missed this because I got the time wrong. It’s been a bad day. One hit after another. 😞
They made a lot of people miss this 😒
I got the time wrong as well - I miscalculated converting EST to GMT (subtracted instead of adding).
Are there any video feeds with NOBODY talking at all?
I'm glad it lifted off....I just wish there was some reusability in it. Looking forward to seeing Starship launch!
Wow.
Just ... wow.
Incredible but weren't we doing this exact same thing 55 years ago?
Yes. Despite all the arrogant boasting, America has actually been going backwards for fifty years.
Moon! moon!! moon!!!
Back to the Moon!
My only complaint about this is that they did this at night. I know they have narrow launch windows in order to get the ship on the right trajectory, but it just doesn't make sense for such a monumental mission to take place at night when we won't get any good footage of the rocket during launch, just a trail of fire. Plus, some of us have to work in the morning, so we had to sleep through it, and couldn't watch it live.
^ This comment fully demonstrates how dumb some Americans are. You really think that going to the moon is just a Hollywood show which should be scheduled according to the needs of couch potatoes??? You know nothing about science. You know nothing about engineering. You know nothing except your own selfish little bubble where everything has to happen for you! Grow up and get a life!
the night actually enhanced the experience and made the launch vastly more spectacular looking.
@@kc5402 Astro acknowledged the need to meet a particular launch window. That said, if this was only about the science and engineering, NASA wouldn't provide continuous public broadcasts. The tax payer needs to be entertained.
@@PreposterousPotato Maybe for some people. But since I couldn't be there in person, I couldn't see much.
But I still believe that NASA would have been better served launching this during the daytime. This is literally the inaugural mission of a brand new space program for NASA, and deserved as much media attention as it could have gotten.
That way, it would generate renewed interest in NASA and space exploration, and put pressure on Congress to increase funding for the agency, so they could launch two or three times per year (like they did with Apollo), instead of one every year or two (like the current plan is).
@@PreposterousPotato And I do agree that getting the ship on the proper trajectory also takes priority. It's also a little frustrating when they scrub a launch. If you take time off of work to watch it, and they scrub the launch, you basically wasted a day off from work.
After Apollo 11s roll and pitch during launch... one controller said one of the crew reported we just passed Mulberry Street headed for DOWNTOWN!!!
Wish I could've watched this live! I was sound asleep Q_Q
