The poor baby rockets being NUKED was amazing, loved it.
-
The Super Orion Interstellar Ark would have been such a waste! All that and it can't even lift a single elephant to LEO.
-
Still a bit sad that Venture Star never came to fruition. That was the rocket of my childhood.
-
Right around the time I saw the Orion I was thinking "Man, the only thing I can think that tops that is the Aldebaran, but that's really obscure, no way it'd be included". And then at around 3:40 I let out a little gasp. Bravo Haze, Bravo!
-
I don't know why, but seeing the tiny man running was really funny to me. Also crazy to see how much tonnage some of these rockets could carry. It could be enough to have an elephant sanctuary for every elephant in the world.
-
I LOL'd at the ending, magnificent! I consider myself heavily Wikipedia learned on this stuff, but I've never seen a bunch of these... thanks!!!
-
The Aldebaran Cruiser - That's a lot of peanuts. Super Orion - Hold my nuke.
-
Super Orion: 'my goals are beyond your understanding'
-
Out of all these, Nova was the closest to coming to fruition. If you've ever wondered why the 3rd stage of the Saturn 5 was the S-IVB, it's because it was to be the 4th stage for Nova.
-
You should make an Aldebaran animation, it looks like a thicc starship
-
KSP Player: Write it down~ write it down !
-
Orion Interplanetary 1957 aka the 'wedding cake' was a master piece of hope
-
When I saw you'd labelled the 56?foot orion interplanetary, I could tell where this was going to end up. Nice work
-
Without words gracefully! The first video about comparing rocket by payload, especially the mass allocated by 5 ton elephants gives me goosebumps!
-
I worked on three of these: SRB-X, Shuttle Derived Vehicle, and Boeing Space Freighter. I worked for Boeing's space systems division in the "new business" group. I also worked on Sea Launch and the Space Station, which flew, and many other concept studies besides conventional rockets.
-
Thank you for the video! Our grandfathers knew how to dream big! 👍💪
-
Sea dragon still remains my favorite, the insanity.
-
I need to know exactly what drugs were consumed in the creation of the Aldebaran!!
-
5:14 imagine seeing that big bang in the sky
-
I have never seen that "Aldebaran" before.
