    I am very picky as for the quality of animations and videos but these three are perfect! Kudos! Must be a question of many, many hours of work! I used these videos to explain the Apollo missions to my students (age 18). They had no idea how everything worked. I was 11 to 14 years old when those missions took place and everything for me was clear. Pity that they don't go to the moon anymore ...

      I too fondely remember that marvelous day! I was 12 years old and had been following closely the fledgling manned Space program since I was old enough to remember anything! From the later Mercury flights thru Gemini I watched NASA learn how to fly in space and it was very exciting! Those astronauts were the smartest, bravest men on or off the planet and I knew all their names! For Christmas 1966 my Dad got the family our first color TV. It was a big beautiful Zenith console that made everything so real! While watching Petticoat Junction in January 1967 the show was interrupted to tell of the tragedy of Apollo 1 and the deaths of Roger Chaffe, Gus Grissom and Ed White who were burned to death locked inside the command module in a 100% oxygen environment during a test on the pad. Such a stupid mistake by the world's smartest people. It was found that the original spaceship was a piece of shit that probably would have killed all who flew in it. A new spacecraft was built. It's first manned flight was Apollo 7 and it performed flawlessly! Winter of 1968 freezing cold on Christmas night I was in our backyard with my new telescope attempting to get a glimpse of Apollo 8 as man orbited the Moon for the first time. I needed a bigger telescope!! When the big day finally arrived I was glued to the TV surrounded by my favorite people who are no longer with us, strong, loving, hardworking Patriots as honest as the day is long and never confused about how many genders there are and what restroom to use. What has become of mankind?

      I've seen both the Saturn V and Space shuttle launch having grown up in Central Florida. The Saturn shook the Earth more but I don't feel was as spectacular as the Shuttle. The Saturn first stage burned kerosene which burns clear and doesn't leave much of a trail. The SRB's on the Shuttle are loud, very F'ing loud and leave a humungus trail of white poisonous smoke that trails the Shuttle all the way to SRB separation. It was SPECTACULAR! Night launches we're spectacular as well and happened all the time. The only Saturn night launch was in December of '72. I was a small child on my father's shoulders when that one took off. (Apollo 17)

      ...and the Saturn V only pulled about 4.5 G! The Gemini-Titan pulled about 11 G - imagine how that felt! They could also feel the gyro stabilizers on the giant F1 rockets in the first stage in the seat of their pants as they pulled the Saturn V into a constant upright position.

      Your comment reminded me of just how loud it was. The Saturn V produced sound waves in the 200-decibel range. Loud enough to melt concrete. Now will get people asking," why didn't the launchpad melt".LOL

    Great video. Clear explanation. Well done!
    However a few comments:
    1. Why no mention of the boost protective cover? The part where you show the launch escape assembly would have been ideal to show the entire CM was covered until the escape tower jettisoned.
    2. The exhaust plume from the S1C was ENORMOUS!!!! Your video doesn't do the MASSIVE stage 1 flame justice. At its maximum it was more than twice the legnth of the entire Saturn V, Apollo stack!
    3. The SII ignites first and thirty seconds later the interstage separates. You have this the wrong way round in your video.
    Still, it's a great video. Thanks for making it.

    • @JaredOwen
      @JaredOwen  8 років тому +7

      Thanks for your comment! Sounds like you know some of this better than I do :) There was only so much I could cover in a few UA-cam videos and at the time - the boost protective cover didn't make the cut. As far as the exhaust from the S1C - this was my first time actually animating flame and it was hard (I've learned a few things since). If I could do it all again I would make the flame more realistic. As far as #3 - you are correct, this was an oversight on my part.
      Thanks again for your detailed comments.

    Surprised you didn't include an explanation of the Instrument Unit at the top of the S-IVB, the actual brains of the Saturn V. As you probably know, it's where all of the control of the Saturn V stages was handled. It told the Stack when to fire the engines, shut them down, drop off stages, fire up the new engines, and most important, keep the Saturn V pointed in the right direction.

    • @JaredOwen

      Yes, it even provided cooling for the plutonium core stored in its cask that was mounted on the LM for the ALSEP that was to be deployed on the moon. From Apollo 12 onwards that is.
      Another thing that is pretty interesting is the slow release mechanism that was used to reduce any abrupt transient stresses at launch as mentioned in this link:

      Yes, it would have been spectacular. Though we do have some high-grade film clips, as well as super 8 mm / 16 mm HD transfers on UA-cam, etc They did have cinematic technologies in the 60s 70s, just not suitable for use in space.
      The main problem was the size and weight of the early Panavision type Hollywood film cameras, as well as there operation in the vacuum of space. Likewise, a high-grade studio TV camera was around 2 meters tall and weighed 136 kg /300 lb in the 1960s,70s. Eventually will see the use of high-end digital/analog cameras on the lunar and Martian surface.
