Unless you've tried to track something that small with a camera you'd have no idea how impressive this is.
Amen
Still, they should have placed them ten feet to the left.
It never gets old, unlike me. My kids thinks it’s normal for rockets to land... lol. Still amazes me! 👍
To think how many experts were "certain" it couldn't be done and now it's almost routine! I too find it amazing every time I see it.
Haha I know I’m the same I am so amazed by the control and landing of the first stage ! It’s so awesome 🚀👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🚀
Same!!!. We're living through a science leap that a few decades back the mere thought of it was impossible. But here we are, watching history made.💖
Hahaha, your kids are thoroughly spoiled!
My kids and me:
Me: Yeahh it landed perfectly!
Kids: Dad why do you always get so excited when a rocket lands?
Me: Because it is a very amazing feat that this thing went to space carrying cargo and landed back in just a few minutes.
Kids: So?
Me: Other rockets can't land, they just throw it into the ocean
Kids: BUT WHYYYY what a waste!
Me: IKR
The best view of separation and “boost back “ I have ever seen. Thank You and congratulations!
i watched the Space-X feed, it was spectacular enough, but this... wow.
The picture is half the story. The audio makes this complete!
This was "wow" until 4:21... at which time, both the camera person and the video editor lost all sentience for some heretofore unexplained reason.
What picture?? Half of nothing is nothing!! The landing was so zoomed in all we could see was a small portion of the rocket? What were you looking at??? This is the worst version I have seen!!
Great job on that challenging track!
But that pole at the end! 🤬
Ya, right in the way
He was probably wondering why no one set up a camera there already, what a lucky spot to find hehe.
That pole was going ‘whoops, sorry!’😅
@@Uslaunchreport The pole wasn't in the way; The video editor was in the way. ;-) Should've stayed with the ONLY logical shot, which was the one you transitioned from and, in so doing, ruined the ending of the video. DOH!
Just the pole?? How about being so closely zoomed in we couldn't see anything but a piece of the 1st stage!! What gr8 job???
I see a lot of complaints in the comments. There have been 70 landings already, go watch one of those. Me, I love the rarer close-ups of stage separation and boost-back. Good job guys, don't mind the negativity, we all know shit happens.
Thanks
"The best-laid plans of mice and men..." vs. the pole at the end.
And that dumb extreme close up
@Jeff W. You need to just relax. He took that on an iPhone 6 and it’s pretty damn good footage considering, you ungrateful bastard. Cheese and crackers!!!!
That was amazing! You really get a sense when the boost-back starts of the intense acceleration with no payload and almost no fuel. I spent many years in the satellite command and control arena, and when Falcon 9s started doing these boost-backs, I thought of the proposed RTLS abort modes for the shuttle and I just couldn't take in the implications for required marginal fuel loads and the accelerations needed to do this. Then I found a site (I think for model rocket enthusiasts) that had the flight profile, and that burn is something like 15Gs. This video really brings that to life! Thank you for producing and sharing this. Subscribed!
So true. When I modeled simple reentry I started to understand why Elon calls reentry without braking burn “hitting the wall”.
Gosh - I never get tired of this. Been watching space stuff since it started.
Yep! Mercury program the start for me.
Wow. That is incredible. The aerial ballet these things do, on such a regular basis, I really feel like we're living in the future.
We are. 😃
As much as we are in the future we are also in the past. When we achieve multi planetary civilization kids will be taught about these launches. Just like how we look back on the first car. This is history in the making!
@@silentespionage um.. your poetic commentary is thick and gooey with a sense of superior understanding. You make me smile. 😄
Yeah we are. We just don't know what to do with it yet.
@@DavidOfWhitehills Sputnik circled the earth and all it could do was beep. Now look at our skies. We’ll figure things out soon enough.
Yup. Just shows you that most of the time large telescopes are severely hampered from their actual theoretical resolution by the atmospheric turbulence .i.e 'seeing'. Here the gods of clarity were in your favour despite having to give up on overall cloudiness.
Brilliant footage. Bravo!
WOW! Unbelievable separation and boost back burn video capture. Bravo!
The gentle toss of the second stage into a graceful peel away of the booster. Using as much momentum as possible in their favor, the booster lands perfectly with only seconds of fuel left in the tank.
Poetic.... :)
2:46 That sequence of events from MECO to first stage boost back is incredible.
It’s incredible the things humanity is capable of, both good and bad.
The pole at the end, and lack of zooming out, otherwise outstanding.
Absolutely incredible camera work. Staying in frame that far away for something relatively small. Impressive
I never tire of watching rocket launches and landings.
Elon Musk: "We will be successful when this become boring."
Me: Not bored.
In the 40s of 19th century, was almost a dream seeing a rocket 🚀 to take off..., in the 60s almost a dream getting to the Moon 🌕!
Now everything seems to be ordinary... Like having a rocket 🚀 booster coming back home 🏠, as it "always" happens now!!! So amazing...
Too the people that put together this presentation. Well done
awesome @ 3:08 when the separation really shows when the boost back burn is initiated while the cargo burn continues on
Outstanding! Absolutely your best tracking photography to date!
That is just freakin' awesome! Space X has changed the way rockets fly.
you can literally see the launch, the separation and the return,.. and still there are people that think spaceX rockets are fake, lol ( especially flat earthers)
great footage.
There’s a lot of stupid people who can’t see beyond dogma.
@@Willaev "the bible says so"
oh you mean that book written by humans claiming the earth is only 8000 years old even though we can carbon date to around 20-25k accurately already? interesting
xD
@@Eagles_Eye the bible doesn't even say the earth is 8000 years old and the creation story wasn't always taken literally, it's amazing what mental gymnastics many modern day Christians do to ignore any sort of science 💀 i'm a christian but am also a reasonable person.
@@jazzylev i was raised as a christian,
but since they used to tell us ( in church etc) that basicly only earth has life etc.
and that scientists are wrong about earth's age and other things like that.
i simply walked away, seeing the amount of galaxies out there, with each galaxies having an insane amount of stars, with each star(or most) having some planets
it would be insanely arrogant of humans to think we are the only life out here, im not even talking intelligent life, im counting microbes as a religion defeater too.
basicly if humans ever find microbes or signs of it on other planets in our own solar system it already defeats most religions that currently exist ( and there are so many religion, everyone thinks they have the right one)
when i just moved into my own house, some jehova witnesses knocked on my door, first encounter ever and i heard the stories about them.
but for the first time in my life, i actually had an intelligent conversation instead of a bullshit one, they actually mentioned the age of earth wasn't determined in the bible, and that they didn't denie other life to exist out there, was quite a funny interaction.
not that it made me religious again, ill never go back.
im science all the way.
@@Eagles_Eye i 100% respect that. i'm not sure exactly what i will end up believing in the end. i'm young and it's still all up in the air, but science and basic logic are very important to me.
Never gets old. I wonder what my great grand kids will think of it.
This high athmospheric burn has HUGE flame - 2:09
Ps. Amazing shots. Best separation and boost-back ever filmed yet. Thanks!
Great shot! Neat to see LOX-RP-1 Merlins have similar shutdown traits of the mighty F-1.
Could see this a hundred times, just amazing!
Why are there ANY thumbs down for this? Oh yeah, flat earthers. 🤦🏻♂️
Those are the jealous employees of Blue Origin and/or ULA who know they will never be this cool!
Sonic boom hit just as it was setting down. That was a scary sound effect.
Wow, amazing footage! Thank you so much for your work. :)
Fantastic! thanks so much for this unique perspective!
Just wow, you guys amazing job tracking it!
Incredible and how simple it look's like.
What a fantastic video. If we had lingered just a couple of seconds longer on 2nd stage we would have seen fairing separation. How cool that it is even possible to see both events in one shot.
We have seen many fairing separations in the past but only recorded 3 boost back burns so they are rare events
Truly the best boost back video I have seen.
Amazing footage!Its a great time to be seeing so many launches these days.
This incredible footage thanks you so much for this. Wow so cool to see all this in action.
those RCS thrusters 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fantastic footage 🚀👏🏽even with that pole in the way.
Thank youuuu that was so awesome👌🏽and Merry Christmas 🎄🌟
the stage separation is a incredible shot... just like what i imagined since i was a kid
Never gets old.
the is power! listen to it, feel it. Beautiful.
Another happy landing...
Spectacular stuff.. thank you for posting this..
Incredible, never get bored of any of these, take off or landing. Love it.👌🏼🇬🇧
Rockets landing is quite crazy and nice
I never saw such a great video of the separation and return!
We have other shots of the flip in our video library at least twice before
Outstanding job on that video! Truly spectacular thing to watch!
Another first. 70 perfect landings. What a way to close out a landslide year! USLR is one of the THE Premier channels to watch all the important space happenings.
Thanks for all the work you did in 2020! A great channel that is never taken for granted.
Thanks , We try
Yeah this launch was amazing! The tracking cam was super on point! Absolute fantastic job team!
Excellent job of staying Just with the First stage all the way up ⬆️ And back down too... 😎👍✅
These guy sure got some powerfull cameras.
seriously, i can never tire of seeing this, cant wait for super heavy to perform these 'routine' landings, going to be amazing
Great footage! 🤙🤘 Mars here we come.
What a great time to be alive.
Thank you! Beautiful tracking and capture!
Great work that's 😎. Thank you
Spectacular!! Great job! Thank you!
You mean, Spacetacular!
That is some next-level rocket science there I love it.
You are getting the incredible shots! Thanks!
Getting a lot better.wow
Well Done 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Great tracking. Superb end to end coverage. Well done team US Launch Report.
Just fantastic video................. amazing!
SpaceX!!! Incredible you guys--congrats to the entire SpaceX team, nice work as always. Making it look easy now.
Were not spacex US LAUNCH REPORT
great location to see from and very good coverage Thank You
Ourstanding camera work guys. Thanks for this.
Majestic!!
Very cool! Thank you.
Good video! Amazing you can follow it through the clouds.
Incredible!
Brilliant footage...!
Wow! Bravo, SpaceX!
Amazing footage guys. Been following your channel for a long time, thank you for your hard work and dedication!
Awsome to see the whole process
Beautiful
That boost back footage was EPIC 🚀🚀🚀👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 nice Work thank you 🙏
Fantastic footage and for a great cause.
Excellent shots thank you friend
Amazing !!!!!!
Awesome video coverage!!!! What a great view!!!
Great job guys. I’ve been waiting for this kind of view since they’ve been doing onshore landings.
Great videos! Thanks!
that was awesome
Magnífico, de cuiabrasa Cuiabá MT
Spectacular!
God this is beautiful. After seeing so many damn SpaceX launches, this is the one man. Or course it's usually at sea and further down range so if course we couldn't see it like this but damn... Being able to see everything from stage sep to RCS thrusts to landing like this looked unreal. 5 minutes ago, I believed they should always land on autonomous drone ships, for the obvious reasons, but after seeing this I now believe it should be on land although that's not going to happen much due to positional requirements. Just crazy visuals here. That tracking camera was masterful here.
Thanks for the comments
Stunning footage!
love it! many thanks
Amazing job again! well done guys!
very great landing it is crazy what people can accomplish when you put your mind and soul in what you believe !!! great job god bless this country the have so much potential when they decide to come together as Americans!!!!
That was incredible footage.
Wow. You can actually see the "My other car is a Tesla" bumper sticker on the first stage.
Amazing work! 👍👍
Amazing
Really great coverage. It's extremely difficult when the thing is about 100km away - and then all the clouds. Great shots - worthy of an Oscar.
Thanks
Incredible separation/boostback burn footage! I also appreciate the behind-the-scenes cut. Subscription earned! Thanks!
You can even see the green flash of the TTEB on the 2nd stage ignition.
Thats the best burn back video, awesome!.
incredible footage. keep it up
