Matt Lowne now: Building a Huge Space Station around an asteroid at the orbit of Eeloo in one launch using SSTO!
ksp content is pretty dry now
@@gerryst5973 correction, non-RO content is pretty dry now. I've been enjoying n9, beardy, and carnasa a lot lately
Yea same realism overhauls real nice
How i build a space station: launching a huge rocket with the whole space station in the rocket
Mr. Blue that’s essentialy how people who don’t know how to dock do it
Same
Same here
Docking is so stress full thing it takes about 3to4hrs
Same
4:41 just seeing those solar pannels rise while that music plays is just so cool.
Epic
Rule one of space station:
-Never forget your rcs.
Hazoish ? I forgot my rcs once it's still in orbit
i did once and all i had was 3 pieces of junk orbiting Kerbin
unless it is a single launch station
So that's why my station felt a little too light...
Hazoish ? I’m playing on console and my RB button is not working right, so I just use rocket engines instead
This was a pleasure to watch.
The editing and pacing was great. You showed in less than seven minutes what would take most people an hour or more in multiple videos.
+Gillian Orley Thanks :)
Gillian Orley frd
Yes.
@@MattLowne hey Matt, it's been six years after you responded to Gillian Orley
@@bettergs2790 Hey its neary the realise of ksp when i responded to you
My versrion of building a spacestation:
Step 1: Build space station and strap an ungodly ammount of boosters and get it into orbit after 37 tries. :D
That's the only way to do it for me :P
+Valid-Watch
Docking is just .... too hard to exist ... :p
+Κώστας Καραπαπαχατζηδιμιτρακόπουλος It's been a while since I played KSP, but I remember accidentally crashing into my space station and deorbiting it on realistic mode. No saves, and lots of time flushed.
Κώστας Καραπαπαχατζηδιμιτρακόπουλος yeah.
Yes , subscribe to him XD
This was a while ago. It’s interesting to see how much Matt’s channel has changed
wholesome to see matt getting exited for a space statiob
Lol
He talks now in 2021 but not in this video
I have learned that this channel is notorious for having amazing music
And here I am barely able to make a stable orbit around Kerbin.
i feel you... 😭
Maybe watch my videos of KSP, it'll help you?
I could do a tutorial :)
+dideej848 Go watch Scott Manley's video's you learn a lot from them. More so than others video's... But that just might be me.
+HanZie82 I learned a lot from watching Scott Manley's videos, but there's a lot of other people that have nice videos, just that Scott tends to explain and narrate a lot more.I'm sure the majority of KSP players have seen his videos :P
He also has a whole series of them personal favourite: Inter Stellar Quest!
dude same...
6:23
the note says at the bottom
"ps i ate all the snacks"
XD
Lmao nice easter egg
One million views! Thank you everyone for the likes and shares! Ironically, this was just supposed to be a "filler" video while I worked on slightly more ambitious projects, but looks like people enjoyed this a lot more :P
Edit: ayy 2 million thanks everyone again
Matt Lowne Discovered your channel (and many others) through the Collaboration Station and now I have whole new backlog of videos to binge! Thanks for all the great videos!
Awesome video, do you have any tutorial videos on how to use your shuttle? Also, do you have your shuttle up for grabs?
Matt Lowne You always inspire me to do amazing things. Never
let anyone put you down. You are an amazing youtuber and deserve a Golden Play Button.
(Also if you replied it would make my Week!)
I absolutely LOVED this video because you had a mission to accomplish, you did lots of scenes that were clear cut but cinematic and were able really capture that genuine adventure feel while all the sequences were strategically planned. Keep up the good work! You got my Sub!
Matt Lowne at the end the sattalite shouldve been disabled and crashed knto earth
Matt gotta say that this video was amazing, even after 4 years it still is quite possibly the best ksp video, music spot on and docking went really smooth (ignoring the posible kraken attacks that you didn't show us)
Clicked because of the title. Stayed because of the music.
Music is Two Steps from Hell - Amaria
TheLegend28 same
And Two steps from hell - Flight of the silverbird
LUBBA LUBBA DUB DUB
same
That was some intense music..........
+Nathan Ong Fits well though. Intense music for intense space operations involving expendable kerbals.
At least it's good choice of music
of course it is... its TSFH
Matt, that was fantastic. I love the buildup with the various stages of the mission, the score fit what was happening perfectly and the whole thing just looks incredible. Bravo sir
This video inspired me to build my own space station.
After a few try's whith the docking, it works well.
Best feeling ever to have a working ksp-space station XD
Doo Doo im trying to do that as well, but I am really bad at docking. I sent the core, then sent an expansion but after dozens of tries I could finally manage to do it. Any advices?
I hope you enjoyed my first 1.1 video! After my old station was destroyed in Duna Attacks episode 3, I needed a new one! Plus, it's a good test of the performance boosts in 1.1.
Download for the Space Shuttle is in the description, as well as the music I used.
If you have any suggestions of what you would like to see in future videos, feel free to let me know below!
For those who are waiting for "Duna Attacks", I am waiting for Camera Tools (and a couple of other mods) to update for 1.1 before continuing. Thanks for the patience!
Visual mods used are Scatterer and Planetshine
+Matt Lowne damn man the one time I'm recording myself trying to make a space station I see you do it
OMG i just had a mindblowing brain-orgasm even tough i've built like twenty stations, but never with such epicness
great job once again Matt!
***** KSP has been outa beta for quite awhile now, it's released
+Matt Lowne Very great music. Impressive content mate
+dkong5 Dude did you even read the comment you just replied to? ;)
wish i was that good at the game! i can't even orbit kerbin
It's okay. It took me forever to get into orbit and I was so proud when I did. 40 hours in, and I just barely landed on Mun. Watch Scott Manley's vids. He helped me A LOT!
I landed in mun by accident. lol
I crashed landed on mun and it felt so good even though my engine and landing gear exploded.
RoVidz Animations 'in' the moon ?!?!?!
DAMN
Octavio Lopez xD
Now you need a rescue mission (or just leave them)
This is one of my favorite KSP videos on YT Matt. I've returned to watch it several times already! This is the video that actually got me to play KSP myself too. I think the success of this video comes from the truly fitting music and actually showing most of the aspects of KSP, in epic cinematic views... it shows a space shuttle, rocket launch and station build, and the many many posibilities in KSP. Hope to see more and great to see you posting new KSP vids again too :) Can't wait to see the results of the laythe series :) Greets ffrom the Netherlands!
Using Flight of the Silverbird for this was gorgeous. That song is amazing.
You're a solid content producer. Your attention to detail can be clearly seen. Keep up the good work.
The first song is a sped-up version of Welcome To Amaria by Two Steps From Hell, followed by Flight of the Silverbird.
Just in case anyone is curious about that, since the description doesn't include it.
You da real MVP.
this is incredible, i struggle to even dock separately launched ships, keep up the amazing work, from a fellow ksp fan
I love this video, probably because of the music. Also one of my favorite videos on TH-cam
All that space debris is gonna fuck you up Gravity style
+Manofiron norifonoM Gravity was such an abominable representation of orbital mechanics. It literally hurt to watch that as I'm sure anyone who plays KSP understands. Go watch CinemaSin's video on Gravity featuring Neil DeGrasse Tyson on all the things it got wrong about science.
+airforce9872 Debris orbiting the other way for one thing
+airforce9872 Doesn't change the fact that it's up there and it's a real problem we have to account for. I think minimizing debris adds an interesting extra challenge.
scratchspider yes, there is debris up there, but it will all eventually de-orbit and burn up. And the vast distances involved in space, even in near-Earth orbit, are almost unfathomable to our minds. It's essentially impossible to run into debris. To put in perspective, imagine a tennis ball is the Earth, now even with over a million pieces of debris in orbit, they are all the size of an atom. Our vehicles are molecule sized. The chances of a molecule running into another atom are near negligible.
+airforce9872 yeah no shit, I'm doing a Physics/Chemistry degree at uni, I said it in more of how the period of the debris will eventually sync with the station and collide.
Never played this game and I'm probably too thick to play it but I sat through your video with a massive grin on my face. Great stuff. :]
you do this like its a normal thing, meanwhile I struggle to get 2 parts even close to each other, let alone docking
Watching this Video again after one year, still leaves me impressed.
This was magic. I love the music and excellent editing!
+saquist Same. The music particularly made it that much better.
+saquist reminded me of Galaxy Quest
+Chris Ryle do you know hat the music is?
+Urban Koala Two steps from hell - silverbird
+Эльхан Исаев Partly true. Second half is Silverbird. First half (after looking it up) is Two steps from hell - Welcome to Amaria.
this is an amazing station
the music suits very well with the content too
Absolutely epic! Well done, man!
Now THIS looks cool ! There are many genius able to push the game so far and build incredible crafts, but you just made something that really LOOKED cool.
What I mean is, it really looked like a big project, epic and a real challenge to a hundread of engineers. And the station itself is looking like it's usefull and will help Kerbal Science for decades (even if we know that in the end nothing you're building is really usefull in KSP :p)
Kudos !
Two Steps From Hell music can make anything awesome. When it's played over something already awesome. Well...
This is so amazing. I've been trying for months just to figure out how to get two things to meet in orbit, and you're out there building space stations. That's just -- so cool! I don't understand why I'm having all this trouble when you make it look easy. I'm envious!
Do you mean getting an encounter? Such stuff as docking is actually well displayed in a few YT videos.
+Bryan Holland +TobiPlayHD Scott Manley (of course) has a good tutorial for rendezvous. I believe there are some in-game tutorials as well now
+Matt Lowne Scott Manley for sure yes! :D 1.1 brought actually good tutorials. The docking itself and getting into the same orbit is a bit poorly explained though. Great job with your space station!
+Bryan Holland Or just use Mechjeb to rendovous
+Gregory Starr Thats how i made my station
Came here after watching Northerlion's latest LP of KSP. Seeing such competent success is like fresh air.
I still can't believe how amazing this video is
Dude, go work for SpaceX
Am I your only fan that also watches this program lel
cartanfan -youtube haha, probably!
+RonnygoBOOM No really , HOW THE **** did he do this. I just like downloading stuff and burning them up in Kerbins or Eves atmosphere. It's just fun lol
I know write
Wow, i didnt know ronny watches ksp
Your space station is really nice! Good enough that I used it as inspiration to make one of my best space stations :D
Thanks!
This was the first and favourite KSP vid I watched!
OMG the music and all that stuff and the video its just awesome man keep up the good work
you REALLY deserve to be one of those big youtubers, with a big channel, like scott manley or something, your videos are awesome!!
What else is new
Foqs yeah
Souven Ir not nice.
He is though?
sweet and simple build up! nice video!
So dramatic, so majestic, and I still can barely get in orbit let alone dock.
One of the best KSP videos I have seen. Thanks!
Two Steps From Hell music. Couldn't be a better match.

This game looks epic
It good
i knos
JoyFerret it is
It's AWESOME but bare in mind that you'll get mad playing ksp
That was incredible. I'm going to start playing again.
I only JUST started this game so this is incredible! I can't wait to delve into the depths KSP has to offer!
Eve
Sweet! I just started playing a couple days ago and am agggesss away from this, but it excites me.
I bet Flat Earthers don't like this game.
The toast says it all
The toast and the alien 👽 says it al
Technically it's not our world so there shouldn't be a problem
Ghld4er but it is a sim of a space agency such as space x
Bold of you to assume flat earthers know how to turn on a computer
loving the music, very epic and has some metal to it as well \m/
This is amazing great job on the build : D
And all I manage to do is make space junk orbit the sun
hey yall i play demo and the easiest way to get shit into orbit is by using some hammer boosters to get up about 3/4 into the aptmosphere and then once your t-130 with 5 fuel tanks and a command module produces power just pick a direction and make it go sideways
Кто русский????????
@@user-bk2hz9le5g Не я
Thats actually pretty impressive if you ask me.
The game looks complicated, so i could only crash my rocket back into earth or the moon.
Use the Navball on 90 and that should work, you’ll have full orbit
*Watches video*
looks easy enough
*5 minutes later shuttle crashes into R&D facility and all pilots die*
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
\\Iron Apple// The mod Cormonaut aeronology (I think that’s the name) has a bunch of shuttle parts. But it wouldn’t bother with SRBs or an ET. Get a mod called rocket lab (I think) and they have fuel and electric generators so you pretty much have unlimited fuel
Quick save
All these self deprecating comments are annoying
How u even got a shuttle
awesome vid man. great music to go along with it. very impressive!
Sometimes I come back to this video to just *feel* the nostalgia. It feels nice.
You are having the same experience as me. Good to know other people find this nostalgic too :)
@@wilbofreeshan6340 This video was actually the first Matt Lowne and the first KSP video I ever watched. I'm also happy that someone else feels the same amount of nostalgia as me. 'Tis a small world.
When I watched the video I realized I didn't know how to play KSP...

Almost two years later, this still is one of the best videos on TH-cam.
i cant even tell which direction im heading in once ive launched and this guy is building friggin space stations...awesome video
Wow mate... Simply great. I need to lean from you.
NICE Video Matt, but my god, do you create a lot of debris in LKO :D
+MalfunctionM1Ke thats what i though, but at the end it appeared they pad probe cores and could deorbit themselves
Wow! I'm new to this channel but this was freaking incredible! And here I am, still trying to land on the Mun. And great music too! Loved that flute part! Reminded me of an old video game Beyond Good and Evil!
Here I am. Trying to make 2 things orbit. Then dock.....
Bergen Nicholson Haha..
+Bergen Nicholson i cant rendezvous for shit :( hahahah if i could id be happy..
+gary kilduff me either. I try to land on the Mun but I just crash :(
+The Dockpacka Keeper Landing on Mun for the first time was one of the best moments in my gaming history, my heart was beating so hard :D
It is mainly trail and error, however there are some basics you want to remember.
- Get a stable orbit of Mun, somewhere between 7000m and 10000m is a safe altitude.
- Face the retrograde, so you are traveling backwards
- Pick a landing spot. Inside a crater is the best place, as it makes your altitude meter more accurate. On the daylight side also helps
- Go into map view and start thrusting before the landing spot you have your eye on
- Aim to have killed all sideways speed at the point when you are above your landing spot so you begin to fall down in a straight line.
- Maintain a slow speed as you fall to prevent unexpectedly crash landing
- Thrust slightly to slow yourself down to below about 7m/s
- Remember to press F5 to save before every major step.
- Remember landing gear.
- Look for the shadow as you approach the surface. A spotlight is good if landing at night
If you are crashing often, you may still be moving sideways slightly, that made me fail while I was new. I've landed on Mun 50+ times now, to the point where I don't use F5 because i like the danger :D
this video is amazing it is one of the best ksp yt videos
Thanks Matt
That is the best space station I have ever saw !
Congrats guy it was a very good ideas, i like the video. Continue like that :D
I just dont understand why there are 1K Dislike. Maybe flat earthers XD
But it's Kerbin, flat kerbiners
A big plus point for music choosing (Two Steps from Hell) :)
good space station Matt, I have the skills but not nearly enough time or motivation to do this, props to you
Ur control is incredible
dude this soundtrack was hype! Made an awesome video even more amazing!
Ur picture got me bruh i freal thought-
nice station you got there... it would be a shame if anything happened to it... (Summons the Hell kraken)
creeper
-.- gtfo with your minecraft.
+IneptØrange why? i actually enjoy that game,i enjoy ksp more though
That music was spectacular.
Now i play ksp, I can truly apreciate this kind of videos
That's pretty cool, GG
God... Just watching this makes me want to start up another space station... maybe get some rotating parts or use infernal robotics to make this thing pro af. This video is amazing.
Joshua White wanted to ask you is this game only for PC or other platforms?
Just PC
herns young Now KSP is on ps4 and xbox one
No shit??
Lol "dont undershoot", hell ill be happy if I can even do a reentry and land within 5km of the runway.
+Wabadebadoo Olelikemjoel With a Spaceplane its actually relatively easy. Thanks to having wings you have a way of controlling your descent without using fuel, and that gives you a relatively big area where you can with a bit of know how practically choose where exactly you want to go. All you need is to deorbit very roughly at the right point and enter the atmosphere just as the manual describes it.
Without wings its a great deal harder, but on the 2nd try i managed to land a base on Eve only 40km away from the next base i was aiming for. (Which was my first attempt of landing somewhere near the rover which, embarrassingly, was on the other side of the planet)
The looks on my friends face when u skipped how to navigate was priceless.. Thank you
im inspired by these videos. to have the know how and ability to do even half of what you can do in ksp would be amazing. im still experimenting with the game getting ready for ksp2 if and when it ever comes out.
4:10 Music reminds me of how to train your dragon.
I think its even HTTYD
It's "Flight of the Silverbird and Amaria" by Two steps from hell. This song isn't on the soundtrack for either of the HTTYD movies.
wha... click on ur timelime and that aint take a chance.. kevin doesnt even have that song what you have posted on 4:10 :D
Yeah.....I read the video description. It's flight of the silverbird, and that isn't on the ost for httyd.
or Kung fu panda
That astronaut was cute.
This video was not only amazing to watch but inspiring. I'm going to make something similar in my career mode now. :)

Wow, this video is awesome! :D
The music - epic!
Hey Matt, I just saw you also have this stuttering issue (every ~5-20 seconds it pauses for a few miliseconds). This bug has been around for ages and is related to the Garbage Collection in Unity, though it could be avoided by creating less garbage (means data that is no longer used). Squad is aware of this but it feels like they are not aware of how many people are affected. So maybe if all the KSP TH-camrs would talk to them we could get rid of it soon. I think after the switch to unity 5 it's about time to get rid of some nasty stuff.
+B20C0 It's getting there, they are optimizing this every new patch they release.
I have the hardest time getting into a rendezvous orbit... I have tried and failed many times to do the rescue missions so I can prepare for this very thing.... I guess I will keep at it. Setting up the maneuver nodes is just a pain for me.
Few tips:
Be in a circular orbit below or above your target's orbit.
The greater the difference in your orbits the faster you will "Phase" with the target
Adjusting the Radial and Anti Radial can fine tune your close approach once you get one.
While approaching closest approach (the last minute or so) burn to match orbits and keep your prograde vector on your target vector, once you get it you can literally stop within metres of the target without rcs.
and btw, it took me about 50 hours to get my first docking, ksp has a steep learning curve so don't feel discouraged.
Xaovin Thank you. I will keep at it. I am going through and following along with Scott Manley and that helps, but with his experience he makes it look easy.
No problem man, keep at it, it's so fulfilling when you get it.
Xaovin I will. I get frustrated easily, but this game has helped me keep my cool and be more patient. I hope to get it soon so I can start building my space station.
***** Thanks, I will. I tried for hours today to get into a good rendezvous positions... No go. I am so frustrated. I got into a good plane orbit, but for the life of me could not get things lined up enough to get in close enough to dock. The closest I was able to get was 12km away but then I started drifting away due to different orbits. Im going to do that scenarios.
I’m. Coughing... im shivering...WHY DID I WATCH THOSE VIDEOS. Ooh Matt! Yay!
You, Sir, have got a new subscriber.
Well done! You earned yourself a new sub!
One problem though: Unless I just didn't see it, there are no more docking ports there; which means that the station is... Pointless.
+Björn Seine (DragonsForce) u wot m8? There are loads of docking ports! One of the launches was dedicated to installing the "docking arm"
FREE docking ports?
+Björn Seine (DragonsForce) There is 1 free port.
5 free ports. Pause at 6:03. 2 regular, 2 junior, 1 senior
Oh, right! Well, in that case, it looks like your station is fully operational! Congratulations! :D
i am thinking of getting this game. is it recommended?
Yes
hell yes. best game i've ever bought on steam it's amazing when you figure out how to make orbit and land on other planets
Michael Pan Definitely
Of course! The amount of things you can build are incredible.
so nearly 3 months later did you buy it?
beautiful ,beautiful ,beautiful, good job, It was wonderful❤️❤️🤠👍
Matt, you have skills!
gotta giggle at the kerbal's stupid grins
true. I laugh when I am doing a war and one gets shot down and is happy.
1st : buildings something in space
2nd : when went inside found aliens sitting.
I don’t even have ksp yet since not a proper pc but this keeps me loving it
Alors là je dis bravo ! great Video and great space station !
me before watching video: I have a space station around the MUN! how cool could this be?
during video: wow... how is this LKO station 10x cooler tan my moon station?
What Mod is that, that makes the Planet look so cool? :)

*Congratulations UK,You finally did it!!!*
I love that soundtrack, SO epic!

Unknown_clan lol
I figure Matt got tired of the Space Shuttle so he used regular rockets. Throw away is much better XD
+camBC It's only worth the money if you have an SSTO, meaning your only cost is the fuel: with the cost of the fuel tank you discard, it's really not worth it using the shuttle.
Edit: Well... It's *usually* not worth it. I didn't do the math for the specific vehicles so I can't say with 100% certainty.
o0alessandro0o Ya for NASA I think it was more money to fly the shuttle that just a normal rocket
+camBC This, and the growing concerns of safety and ageing technology/hardware. The columbia disaster was one of the biggest (if not the number 1 contributer) factors leading to the termination of the shuttle program. The shuttle was so expensive to fly because it wasn't used nearly as frequently as was originally intended.
Matt Lowne Interesting. Thanks Matt!
Matt Lowne Chicken and egg, though: one of the reasons it wasn't used more often was that it was so expensive to fly.
"Astronomical" is an adjective you hear often at NASA, I'd expect, but you'd rather it didn't apply to the costs involved in refurbishing your craft after each successful launch.
Add the fact that it was as nimble as a flying brick and as tough as a sand castle, that it would cook the occupants if the cargo bay doors got stuck while in orbit, and a myriad of other fun factoids, and I think the only reason it didn't get retired earlier was that it was so damn cool - and that, half a decade *after* it was retired, we still don't have a real replacement.
This is my first KSP video I watched
Seeing stock builds this incredible is equal parts inspiring and disheartening.
