I still don’t understand the difference between Brilliant and Skill Share, especially since it seems like every educational channel is sponsored by both.
I use the free version of Brilliant, and it's very much STEM fields, whereas I think Skillshare is more general.
Reverse TuringTest I didnt know you could use free version of Brilliant, but it's for basic, right?
If I remember correctly you get the first lesson in every series, plus you can do their weekly questions, which I really like (when I can work them out).
Brilliant is basically like Gym for the brain, while Skillshare is for learning general skills like how to do animation, plumbing, writing, art, marketing, etc.
That's a good description.

"How to Build an $100 Million Satellite" Start with 100 million.
Pixelator “a small loan of a 100 million”
Yeah.. Loan is greater than Everything For Just 100$ Amazon Build satellites
NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory LOVERXGenious can I order one on amazon? Lol I can everything els
Yep !! Note: International Space Station is only Worth 600$ Seems legit.....than the original ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I need a satellite that blocks my phone signal when I’m drunk so I don’t drink call/text people can they make that happen? Lol 😂
You would need a "small loan of a 100 million dollars"
Only if it works
7:05 I can actually provide some insight into this, SSL commissioned me to help in creating these acoustic simulations. There are logistical challenges in creating these sound profiles, most notably creating something loud and accurate enough. It sounds easy, just make loud noise, but you can't just use any noise, you have to properly recreate the real noise of the launch - otherwise the test is useless. You also can't just record and play back the noise, since no microphone can survive the insane noise levels generated by the rocket.
These sound waves create a noise so incredible it has only, to my knowledge, been reproduced once, in a technology dubbed MMT. What I did for MMT was use advanced computer simulation and synthesis to recreate every aspect of the launch, most notably the fire spitting out the back of the rocket, to create a replica of what the satellite experiences during launch. MMT is currently in the 'consideration' phase my SSL, the only thing they have left to test is whether or not their acoustic facility can handle My Mix Tape.
I'm skeptical, mostly because of your " no microphone can survive the insane noise levels generated by the rocket" statement. Microphonics is a quality of so many electronic systems you would have to go out of your way NOT to record the noise. There are many ways a high SPL mic could be created as well. Also sound travels so you can remotely mic with parabolic dishes. Just doesnt sound right.
I worked with him and can confirm his account, essentially the last line
I worked with him too and confirm he worked for ssl
Brilliant may be good at it, but for most people I would recommend Kerbal Space Program. You can learn all about orbits and much more. Its a scaled-down version of real solar system (although with mods you can get the real deal). Its really fun, and you can make your own rockets and satellites to learn about space travel. I love it and Im addicted to it, but be warned its not easy!
pff, not easy, just sent 3 kerbs to the moon and back!
(after 6 rl months of trying, and multiple unmanned failures.)
Hey Thomas, haha we have all been there! I suggest you watch Scott Manley and Matt Lowne's videos. Specially Matt's channel is awesome! Space travel is NOT easy, but it is easier in KSP. You can also download their crafts just to get an idea. Real fun is building your own crafts. These guys have been playing this game ever since it was released and they are awesome at it. I have landed my sstos (Mk2 with 4 rapiers and 2 nervs and Mk3 with a lot more, but in similar ratios) on every planet except for EVE, but I do have space stations and refuelling stations around the orbits of every planet. If you did a successful Mun landing, next step would be Duna! Go for a traditional rocket approach at first with parachutes for landing. As you keep playing and making orbit, something inside your brain will just click on and it starts to make a lot of sense! They have made the game JUST hard enough and JUST easy enough IMHO.
@@ashwinmohan4503 you misunderstood, my friend.
Moon.
Thomas Wijgerse Sorry buddy, I guess you are playing with real scale mods!! Thats a pretty good achievement if so!! I am barely making orbit using RSS mods.. I tip my cap to you good Sir!!
Ashwin Mohan haha, thanks mate!
Yup, its surprisingly hard, but all the more rewarding!

Such a good video to procrastinate while thinking that I'm still learning something for tomorrow's exam on Satellite Orbit Calculation
0/10 I watched the entire video and still don’t know how to build a $100 million satellite.
Start with the $100 million and go from there.
Write check. Stop answering phone and reinforce door to withstand pounding of creditors/bill collectors.
Wow... I'm impressed with how much your channel and production values have increased. All of those videos with a twenty second ad built in to the end, now make sense. You have done a great job of building a quality channel
I've been watching your channel for a long time now and I have to say, I think this is my favorite video. Even though my watch later playlist is in the hundreds I always watch one of your videos as soon as I see it on my feed. Informative, entertaining and downright cool. Keep it up.
This is why I want to be a space systems engineer. This stuff is cool af
To build a 100 million dollar satellite you must first obtain 100 million dollars
I don't comment on your videos often but everytime I watch one of your video's I'm genuinely so impressed with how good and interesting your video's are. Thanks for all your video's and keep up the amazing work!
Loved the video!!! So sweet to see on-site interviews
Does the motorhome driver need a second motorhome so that he can swap out? And then the driver of that motorhome needs another one and then...
I think those are rather large motorhomes, so there is enough space not just for SCV drivers but for multiple motorhome drivers as well.
r/Whoosh on the highest level sir. *frown*
When I drove the thing we had three drivers, none of which were women. Mostly because sometimes we had to park...
it becomes a paradox doesn't it?
Would you do more airline videos?
Also check out Mentour Pilot
Not anymore.
I work for a small company and we have a small machine shop and 2 lasers that do hermetic welding for SSL housings. I personally have do drive their finished housings to a gate that is between SSL buildings 2 and 3, right next to the sign that you feature in your video. SSL wants us to deliver the parts personal because by the time a housing has been hermetically sealed they are worth close to $100,000 a piece and are wrapped in so much anti static packaging that if an EMP went off for example the electronics inside the parts would not be affected. Cool stuff and great video as always.
This is a very well produced and researched video. Thanks!
4:30 AT LEAST ONE of these workers must have written his name or put a sticker on the thing just for posterity.
bad way to affect the mission. out-gassing in vacuum? gathering contamination? concentrate heat or cold? a thousand ways they're taught not to screw up
Yeah, but imagine being there, seeing a spot that's gonna get covered by another part forever. Wouldn't you be tempted?
@@harmony.enforcer not if you risk losing your job...
Used to work there. We did right before launch in the back on an interior deck where the reaction wheels are. We used a type of flight adhesive that was safe for space.
Can I order one of these on Amazon?
The production value of your videos is so satisfying, it almost feels smooth to watch them. I know, sounds stupid, but that's the best description I've got. :D Great job!
Thank you for making this video, I have wondered about this for some time now.
I guess Wendover is over planes now
(Sorry)
Nope. Airplane sighting at 9:00
stop
Well rockets are kinnda like O.P. planes.
@@masonsilvers6789 xD

How does air traffic control change around the time of launch? It seems like an interesting topic to explore maybe on here or HAI. Just wondering bc I'm sure you can't exactly have planes flying over or around the launch pads.
They put a TFR over the launch area. Sometimes at as large as 45nm from the launch site. Cape Canaveral points out into the water so it doesn't affect the Daytona, Orlando, or Fort Lauderdale airports
@@RobinsM ahh ok thanks that makes sense. I thought they would do something along those lines
If a rocket goes out of the launch corridor, it's self destruct is activated to make sure it can't hit anything :)
Best how its made video. You have been making awesome stuff lately. This channel is great. Thank you for the video.
Great video! Very informative. I've always loved space and this was fun to watch
That picture you show where the satellite is being "bombarded with acoustic energy" is not a picture of an acoustic test chamber. its a Radio Frequency (RF) test chamber known in the business as a "Compact Range". Its used for antenna pattern measurement (APM) along with a myriad of other RF tests.
The woman also isn't wearing her hair net properly or wearing a mask/gloves in a clean room so I'm doubting their quality.
"If you want to know all about how that works..."
...you play Kerbal Space Program.
Thanks for these great videos!
On educational videos Wendover definitely has the highest standard, by far. Those interviews are awesome, and surely not easy to get.
Artillery Only
Ayy, my boy! Super Heavy SP Artillery only should be next.
Thanks to these satellites, we can send each other memes and watch porn.
I love this company
The quality of your videos is always high, but this was particularly enjoyable. Thanks for your work.
I love wendover production videos you have expanded so much
But how many Toyota Corollas are there in orbit?
EDIT: OMG SO MANY LIKES
There are less than 1 Toyota Corollas in orbit at the time of my writing this comment
donaciux Why not Retrograde your satellite and directly throw on Ocean
Wrong channel buddy lol
donaciux Scotty 😂
Fun fact. $100M is the price of 4000 1999 Toyota corollas
This makes me want to work on satellites.
A $100 million dollar satellite made this comment post possible from where I am at!. Thanks for giving a small glimpse into how much work/time/money it takes for our silly messages to come and go so easily!.
Ive been looking forward to a new Wendover video for a long time
You weren't kidding that the vibration was bad. I mean, at 9:48, there is so much vibration that the camera is seeing doubles.
just looked into ssl and apperently they dont pay their employees very well. seems a lot of people have a bit of mixed feelings about the company.
Damn I was going to order my satellite from there as well. Looks like I'm going to have go take my business elsewhere.
The pay isn’t bad. It looks bad due to the pay that surrounding tech companies give employees. Google is literally down the road and Facebook is a 10 min drive up the highway. Apple campus is 15min away.
Ahh, our internet denizen does 5 minutes of research and determines a company is bad. Everybody definitely cares about your opinion!
Wait, so how much do they pay?
@@shakir1998 #CANCELSSL
Such a high quality video. Thank you Wendover
Interesting. Thank you for the information!!!
"You know.... 10 to the minus five Torr"
Where did you find out how many Satellites are orbiting earth google says ~1,100 working ones and ~ 2,600 old ones . Just curious where you found out your number 😃 great video as always
Technically whatever orbiting the earth is a satellite of the earth. So if a satellite breaks apart in its orbit without anything falling down, we technically get a few hundred (or thousand) more satellites orbiting the earth.
野龍 Thanks 🙏🏻
Great video, and very interesting insight!
Fantastic video as always
How to fix boredom:
-Call SSL and ask them to build a satellite.
Requirements:
-Patience
-$100+
SSL might need a new marketing manager if he thinks UA-cam advertising is going to do anything for them
Such companies don't really need marketing . This is because the set of customers to reach is pretty narrow and all the potential customers are big companies who research all companies before signing contracts.
Yeah, I'm sure there are many potential clientes for a $100M satellite in Wendover's comment section!
I love your videos! Thanks for another great one!
That was...beautiful. Thank you. More!

Great video, have always wondered what went into building a satellite.
Brilliant, loved the video. Thanks
If you want to know all about how satellites and orbits work, Kerbal Space Program teaches you exactly that in a real-time stimulating launch process. (Don't go to god damn brilliant)
I had seen a Kerbal thing. What's wrong with brilliant. Let me guess. It's for idiots?
If I had the money to purchase a satellite and to rent a rocket and launch pad could I personally (without running a company) own and run a satellite assuming I had the technical know-how?
Well, I'm guessing you would have to submit your satellites design to the government for them to approve an orbit. Tiny cubesats probably don't require permission except for launch.
Yes, technically you could. On a more realistic note, since there are some individual entrepreneurs running huge businesses, it is totally feasible for a natural person to even own a fleet of large satellites.
+jja77a I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of that regulatory stuff is handled by the companies you contract to design, build and launch the satellite for you as part of the service package or at least I would expect such services would be available from them for the right price. At least most other builders of products that require regulatory approval to be built or used will have that service available such as firms that design and build aircraft, ships, buildings etc for their customers.
Having a photo of a serial murder as profile picture is in really poor taste.
@Jezza Yes! They actually have these things called cubeSats that consumers can buy or make themselves and then pick a provider to send it up to space for relativly cheap. The podcast Planet Money did a great series on them where they sent up their own CubeSat. I think you can find it by googling Planet Money CubeSat if you want to learn more.

“How to build a satellite in which you almost definitely can’t afford so this video is basically useless anyways”
You cannot afford it. But you can use it and wonder about how it was done and what the steps behind are. Kind of like you will almost for sure never buy a 747 but you can still fly on them and send parcels around the world for very little money ;)
This is very useful for me soon
Great Video, great info!

Great comment
Even though the title is grammatically correct, it still sounds weird when I read it
I was talking about how it read "How to Build AN $100 Million Satellite" but he changed it to "A" instead of "An" so we're okay now
No, it still looks weird, and it's still correct. It's correct because the word 'dollar' is right there in front of the '100 million'. And it looks weird because I don't immediately think of the tokens (100, million) as more tightly-bound than the tokens ($, 100).
@@EappleSandbox same I kinda read it with a "an"
I didn't see it before it was changed, but 'an $100 million satellite' would not be correct.
Whether you read it as 'hundred million dollar' or 'one hundred million dollar', it starts with a consonant sound, so takes 'a' not 'an'.
If you speak a variety of English that doesn't pronounce initial 'h' (for example Cockney), then you might say "an 'undred million dollar satellite", but I don't think many would write it unless they were specifically trying to render the Cockney pronunciation in writing.
I suppose some people in colloquial speech might also say "an a hundred million dollar satellite" - 'a hundred million dollar' being the adjectival expression, and 'an' being the indefinite article - but again, I don't think many would write it this way, at least not as a title of a video for an international audience on UA-cam.
So, yeah... just 'a' is good.
Hookt on fonix worx for U?
Such an interesting video, love it
As someone who works for one of these kinds of companies, great job on giving a nice overview!

Honestly, I don't understand why people dislike your videos. You aren't doing anything wrong, you are just explaining what goes on in the construction of satellites. unless you get something wrong, you shouldn't get any dislikes on your videos.
It's comforting to see there are those so focused on seeing to our mother's big picture thanks to unseen yet overlooked in holding such an honorable respected work
