Ever look up to the stars and wonder, what's out there? How do stars and planets work? Where is the space station right now? What would it be like to hit a baseball on the moon or spend a day in the cloud tops of Venus? Did people really land on the moon, and if so, how? While (most of us) will never have the chance to actually go to space, there are so many ways we can all experience space in some way, and it's right there in the palm of our hands. Our smartphones can do a lot more than post on social media- we can use technology that we all have to explore the universe. We call ourselves "Digital Astronauts."
Here on this channel, we make videos about space and space exploration.

Watching the 2017 in East Tennessee | 2017 Solar Eclipse
Переглядів 6772 місяці тому
This is an older video I'm re-uploading today in celebration of the April 8, 2024 solar eclipse! In August of 2017, my family journeyed to Friendsville, Tennessee, to watch the total solar eclipse from the lake. Actually, this was the very place where Jill and I got married, so it was really special being back for this! We filmed and photographed it with two Sony a6500's and I also had my drone...
That time we went behind-the-scenes at a Space Shuttle Launch
Переглядів 1416 місяців тому
It's story time! Twenty-five years ago today, my family went to NASA watch Space Shuttle Endeavor, STS-88, take the first US piece of the International Space Station. It's was supposed to be a normal, touristy trip. Instead, we unexpectedly found ourselves among the families of the astronauts in a behind-the-scenes experience we'll never forget. In this special episode, I sat down with my mom t...

Mercury's Spin-Orbit Resonance (Animation)
Переглядів 6 тис.Рік тому
This is an animation we created for our episode about the planet Mercury, but we thought it might be helpful on its own. In the animation, the green light is a simple way to mark when a full rotation has happened. The astronaut is simply there to help you see Mercury's rotation. The yellow line is the zenith of the sun's light to help you mark the solar days. Mercury is tidally locked with the ...
Planet Mercury: The closest planet to the sun
Переглядів 1 тис.Рік тому
The closest planet to the sun is Mercury. It’s a rocky, desolate planet covered in craters but with a heart of iron- literally! But don’t let its barren surface fool you - Mercury is wild. Named after a Roman god, it has the gravity of a much larger planet and in a single day, the temperature changes over 1,100℉! And wait until you hear about Mercury’s days. In this episode, we’re going to talk...
How high could you jump on another planet? (VFX experiment)
Переглядів 313Рік тому
How high could you jump on another planet? What about on the moon? The gravity we experience on earth is very different from the gravity on other moons and planets across the solar system. So if we turned the dial on earth’s gravity to match the force of gravity on another planet, how high could you jump? Today, I’ve invited my friend Drew to help us find out! We built a green screen simulator ...

What's a Digital Astronaut? (channel intro)
I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE ROCKETS, BUT THE ROCKET ENGINE SOUND IS MUSIC TO MY EARS
What a terrific video. Ashamed it doesn't have more views.
۲۰ کیلومتر کپشن کافی ؟ 20 15
It's me or it doesn't have any sound? 😢
🙂💧
Amazing video! I loved the shots from the multiple camera angles.
Watching an Artemis-1 Launch with Full Audio Quality is like Watching Oppenheimer's Nuke Scene.
Bruh! Plzz don't use music. We need to hear original sound so that we can feel it. ❤
Guy in the moving car at 1:01 "shit.. it's so dark, there should I park? Oh.. Now I see the place".
Walter Kronkite would be jumping out of his seat….. 😊
the most efficient engines and the most powerful boosters working in harmony
Im already synced Who needs rockets? 😂
Give me the Saturn5 any day
Wow. Alot of this footage is the first I've seen. Excellent work
No because if that was true then the moon would at least haft to be the size of the sun
Those shots from orbit around the moon are the real point of Artemis/Orion. NASA knows this route already. Look at that shot at 3:38 - NO crew-rated spacecraft has ever flown this far out before. Starship fans would do well to consider this - Starship isn't even crew rated yet, and has yet to go into actual orbital flight. I wish SpaceX all the best in their endeavor, but boasting might best be reserved for after the mission has wrapped up and crews are on the ground...
Tears in my eyes. Just to show the world that they've been there before, NASA flies the Orion spacecraft all the way to the moon, orbits it a few times, then flies out further than any other crew-rated craft has ever flown. Big steps and big thanks to all the hard workers at NASA and the contractors who keep the dream alive!
Even though i wasn't able to see it in person, i stayed up until 2 AM to watch this beauty take off!! I'm proud to be part of the Artemis generation!!
The problem is we are going backwards instead of moving forward. Even then they are having an extremely difficult time doing something that a team back in the 60’s was able to accomplish with far less technology while even building much more powerful engines. I know the Shuttle program had its problems but the success of the Shuttle program far outweighed failures. These new space craft can’t even do half of what the Space Shuttle did. At least it was able to retrieve satellites for repair, bring them back for repair, deliver satellites and one of them even had the ability to carry a lab/science module in the cargo hold. Carried more people and was responsible for building most of the I.S.S.. They should have taken what they learned from the shuttle program and built a better more updated shuttle with stronger lighter weight materials. Between the lighter weight materials and lighter weight computers and other electronics the weight savings would have been big. After all that implementation of much better management over the program. All that money wasted in all the previous programs that went nowhere could have been used to develop and build a newer and much more efficient engines.
😢😊
Epic was to spend 4 billion dollars
yeah I know there are a lot of private launching of rockets. And everyone gets all giddy about it, yeah big deal. But for me, its always has been and always will be NASA that invokes the deepest emotion.
pov: Your At the SLS Artemis 1
Yeah but it sure tore up the launch tower
There is something incredibly beautiful, almost poetic and very titanic about the launch. So much power, so much thrust, fire at over 3000C spewing out the back, perfectly engineered down to the last detail not to destroy itself from all that violent combustion as the SLS slowly starts picking up speed. I can't help but smile until my face starts to hurt. The space race was the best thing ever to happen to humanity within the last 100 years. The fields of science and technology surged forwards in the space race. And now... with NASA and SpaceX at the top of their game... it looks like we have another space race. Watching this makes me feel optimistic about the future. Maybe we will get out sci-fi utopia after all.
Thank you
Wow, really great video!

Amazing. However, I still have to give it to the Saturn V. The 5-pack of Rocketdyne F-1 engines can't be beat for sheer brute strength. The F-1 still, to this day, stands as the most powerful single chamber rocket motor ever produced.
GO ARTEMIS THE HUNTER ! ! ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The most powerful operational rocket in the world, at time of writing. It's much like its Saturn V forebear in that regard. The Saturn was technically not as powerful as its soviet rival, the N1. However, the N1 never flew without turning into a fireball. EDIT: Because the meaning of the second paragraph isn't clear enough, the point I was making is that the SLS is not as powerful as the Starship. However, the Starship is not, at time of writing, an operational rocket. It's an incomplete test article that keeps dying a fiery death in the upper atmosphere. If Starship becomes operational, _then_ SLS will no longer be the most powerful operational rocket in the world, and only then. The rocket needs to be operational to be considered the most powerful operational rocket, after all. Kinda in the name. But it's not there yet.
It WAS Until It Got ECLIPSED By STARSHIP ! ! !
@@andrewhillis9544 Note that I said "operational." Starship is not operational. Starship has yet to fly without turning into a fireball. Starship is currently not even complete, it's a fuselage with engines and remote controls and cameras in it, and nothing else. That's why the launches have been referred to as "Test articles," they're not complete vehicles. That's why I made the comparison to Saturn V and N1. The N1 was more powerful than the Saturn, but because it never actually completed a flight, the Saturn remained the winner by default. Power is meaningless if you can't actually use it for anything.
@@andrewhillis9544starship is yet to actually achieve anything. Also having so many engines on a single stage seems like Soviet N1 levels of bad idea
@@thomashayhurst6547we’ll have to see, nasa does appear to have faith in it though
How far you get to pluto
My sound system has 4 subwoofers connected. Whole house shakes. 👍👌😀🚀
Very nice editing right here, sir. Thank you for sharing.
So I made my own scale set using household objects, and calculated how far away everything would be. Long story short, if the sun the size of a typical flat ceiling light fixtur, (13.5 inches in my case) earth, (which would be the size of a small bead), would only be 122 feet from the sun, but Pluto would be almost a mile away. And to think that most of that is just empty space… that just blows my mind 🤯
Why Jupiter and Saturn are the size of 2 quaters
Really amazing sound and light of the launch!!
I saw it like two days before it launched, but I wasn’t there for the launch
all God My Body was very Clean So all the jerm return to back for heart fior asked
god bless america god bless all mankind
Zero emissions 😅
But NOT From The SOLID ROCKET BOOSTERS ! ! ! ☹️
Who the hell cares about emissions? The space race is much more important and moves us forward.
❤❤❤ Hare Krišna 💓🍁🦋🌍🪻🌼🪔
Excelent work with rocket and too with this video cut !! Perfect , hope see very fast 2. launch in a day.
I have to say this is one of the best videos I have seen on this! I'm glad I was able to be apart of history ! I launched this bad boy from the firing room woo!
Whoa! Tell us more! What was it like and what did you do on the team?
We need Nasa to be great again
Very Good Animation. I get it, day time isn't eqaul to night time.
Thank you, a very nice movie. It's a shame when you see what humanity could achieve if united.
I did a fun scale thing like this with the video game Halo. If Halo were the size of a cheerio, its effective blast radius would reach Saturn.
You always have to give 🎉 to NASA. Space X has made it possible for USA again. NASA didn't give Space X $? For no reason!!!
NASA SPACECRACRFT. GOD.
