I'd never thought of taking a landing pad with me and using stacked empty boosters as gantries. I take my hat off to you!
just incredible.. but the stay on venus' surface itself was quiete short and unimpressive (yeah i know, high temperature & pressure) compared to all the epicness of the voyage itself.. it was very cinematic. loved the dramatic iva views with all the rattling and sound of bending metal

This game looks AMAZING. It's not just something where you randomly slap together stuff and get instant gratification. No, if you want to go to Venus in this game? You have to plan, plan, plan, plan, plan, plan, plan, PLAN and risk everything in order to get there, let alone land there. Nobody can hold your hand, nobody's going to help you. It's all about how skilled you are and how far that skill can take you. And the feeling of success after going there and back again? Beyond words.
Jesus that scared the shit out of me when he hit the water at 30m/s. All that effort just to flop in the last 10 seconds of what was probably a 5-6 hour mission. Incredible fucking video.
+racergsxr1 well you can see really quickly at the end, when he hits the water, the UI disappears, similar to if the root part had been destroyed. Also, notice how the vessel that surfaces has none of the parts the vessel that landed did. Even if it was a rough landing and things were destroyed, at least a few parts should have survived to float back up to the surface with the capsule. I suspect the pod was destroyed at the end of the mission, but by the time you've actually gotten home and would easily be able to land via a quickload and parachute deploy edit, you're pretty well done anyway.
+Gordon Rammstein Yeah, the end was edited. Not only is it not the same vessel coming back up out of the water, but the camera view jumps slightly and the mission timer resets back to zero. So, sadly.. they all died. Darn government cover ups!
Jeremy Roney I believe the ascent from Venus was also edited. The teeny tiny final stage had a much lower delta V than that required to neutralize the relative velocity to the mothership. To be honest, after docking all the parts and making the long, slow burn to venus, i think i wouldn't really mind editing a few things in and out as well.
People have done them all, that are capable of being landed in. Heck one guy in like .90 did it all with tier one parts. Now his ship was well umm interesting
Î just love how you incorporated the music to the start launch of the 3 parts. Those goosebumps you get when he kicks the first engines on and you see the smoke and flames and then *woosh* the secondary set kicks in setting everyting ablaze while the music hits the topline and these massive engineering marbles slowly lift off burning everything below them with deafening noise. God fucking damn thats like the best part of the entire thing
Truly a great work. The amount of figuring out for weights and TWR and the associated gravities etc to figure the different crafts while also being able to match what was left to what was going to be needed. ie after all you had already done with stages and gravity assists etc to have figured it for the specific stages needed and then the final small burners to just have enough to get your return capsule into orbit to rendezvous with the return ship was amazing. Also, with a few of those "lengthwise" shots of the ship from near the body I thought the Kraken was going to show up and do a cancan on all your broken rocket bits. Some serious disco going on hehehe ;~) Liked and Subbed.
The lander was tested ahead of the mission. I was not about to take on something like this without testing that part thoroughly beforehand. The testing lander worked flawlessly every time. However I somehow managed to screw it up by accidentally changing the size of the landing platform after finishing the design. I also accidentally screwed up the propellant balance on the boosters. You can see the in the video how this almost ruined the mission in multiple ways, like how things started to explode from heating during Venus EDL. Thanks for the like and sub! I feel a bit bad though because I'm not really actively making videos :|

SpaceX is a very budget oriented company. In no way would this even be applicable to their standards, actual space travel is MUCH more complex than this.
Morisato The creaking sounds were all added in post to make it more interesting to watch. In fact most of the sounds your hear up until that point was added in post. It shouldn't be terribly difficult to make a mod that would play these kinds of sound... Well to difficult for me, but not for someone who is moderately skilled at programming.
***** Thanks for the response! The sound effects are amazing. Hopefully these can be added based on atmospheric pressure, descent speed, etc :) I will look into it. Any word on the sources of these sound effects?
Kinzerfest "venus has less gravity than earth." I know but, 8,87 m/s2 is not exactly low enough to lift a human with rcs. I think there is no way a suit-rcs system would work at a atmospheric pressure of 92 bar xD
When you think about Earth and Venus have about the same gravity, and Venus has 5+ times the atmosphere. You need more rocket to get back then you do to get there
There are huge parts, but I'm not sure there are that many parts. I'm pretty sure there never are more than 1000 parts at a time, and probably far less (~400?). Big/procedural parts really saves CPU.
this really does a great job showing the world of difference between regular KSP and RSS - the scale of everything is just incomparable. excellent presentation.
Very cool, i am just getting the hang of KSP. only just got two objects to dock in space and man what a feeling. I can only imagine the sense of accomplishment doing one of these missions brings. GJ.
Crazy. If my launches get 10% of that then I'm going REALLY fast really low. Typically I'll peak 20-30 kPa. I guess I am also surprised you did not burn up on liftoff either.
Bob Fitch That actually surprised me too, but the shock heating doesn't really kick in until the pressure drops to a few atmospheres. I think it's because the atmospheric pressure is already so high that the relatively small increase in the shock wave doesn't result in any significant increase in temperature.
Still, all these years later I look back on these videos as what I should achieve to be in KSP now. Great work man. Entry to Venus could have been smoother, but honestly, what could be smoother in a situation like this.
Fuck youtube forcing you to make a new name Thank you :) You mean the multiburn escape? The TWR of the departure stage was ridiculously low, like 0.07. I would have a lost a serous amount of delta V had I tried to do it in a single burn.
Fuck youtube forcing you to make a new name To expand on the reply given, boosting like that gives more time at periapsis, allowing for more exploitation of the Oberth effect.
Leaving everything that's not necessary behind. This is what you see when rocket science game meets badassery. It's about a couple years old video but this is one of my favorite KSP vid on here.
11:30 makes me feel uneasy... When building the rocket, did you consider putting a ladder on the inside of that ring (if possible), just in case Jeb fell in there?
nah, many people just come here and saw, video of game video, but this video is looks like a ballet, if you know the theory: The Oberth theory, Tsiolkovsky equation formulas, math of window to planet transfer, colibration of transfer course between planet, Reentry maths, and much much much more, science. For those who play in KSP with FAR, and othar mods, that made this game even harder, and more realistic, this looks like a poem of science and math triumph. perhaps, this isn't posible to travel to Venus, the atmosphere is too density, and surface is molted, temrepture degree is from 230C to 470C, and weather is always unstable making landing a spacecraft is nearly impossible :(( and launch back, is totaly impossible. (wind speed is about 100m/s )
+UnderSky A hundred years ago, do you think people thought we could do a hundredth of what we have done? It's never a good idea to say something is impossible. Maybe putting a person on Venus isn't going to happen in our lifetimes, but it sure as hell will happen.
+Verdiss Hardly. With temperatures about 450-500°C. Thats slightly more then TWICE what you use to bake a pizza. Pressure equaling that of water in a depth of 900m on earth. On the completely dark backside, cause it rotates very slowly, its very cold. Also there is no moon to reflect sunlight and make any light, Athmosphere is hell. No magnetic field as well. so unfiltered cosmic radiation. Closer to the sun. It rotates even slightly slower then it circles the sun So a venus day (and night) is longer then a venus year. There wont be a person on venus. It makes no sense to even try. There wont be terraforming. Youre better off trying your luck with some moons of the gas giants. Its very hard to imagine there will be even working ELECTRONICS on venus for any length of time.. The russians got a glimpse of venus before their probes burned to death or were squeezed to it. Only when they basically sent a frozen tank did it survive on the surface. For about 2 hours. Unmanned landing probes that may survive for months on the surface are planned again. in 10-15 years. Its a fascinating planet. But everything that makes it fascinating, makes it absoluetly impossible (and pointless) to land a person on its surface. Or even a permanent structure. Oh btw: As a keen amateur in KSP; What an amazing video/flight. Very very impressive. And beautiful.
+AnDay5zlebt maybe since the atmosphere is so dense, it will be possible to make floating cities somewhere around 40-50 km above its surface? The temperature there should be ok, pressure as well. Acidic clouds, on the other hand...
a)how many time you ve tried before and failed? b)where did you find these parts? c)how much time took you to do that trip? (including the development of the ship?)
This particular mission worked on the first try in the sense that I never had to go back and redesign anything, altough I had to quickload several time due to pilot error, and the design almost resulted in unsalvageable failure on several occasions. The biggest problem was the atmospheric entry at Venus. As you saw I lost several parts, and that was the only successful EDL after many, many quick loads. The lander was the component I had tested the most before actually flying the mission, so it was really frustrating that it caused me so much grief. Don't remember exactly how much time I spent designing this mission, but it was several months of tinkering at least. Actually flying the mission took about one week if I remember right.
***** master missions.. all these parts, sometimes their description is not specific of how they work and how.. and how you download them and use them? you have to buythe game and then istall them or they are included in the main pack?

Those internal view shots during descent were a nice touch. It was actually kinda scary to think of descending in there.
that was the coolest/best produced video game video I have EVER seen, fucking amazing
Imagine this in career mode... ALL THE MONEY LOST
Luka Djokovic I think he actually did use career mode - holy meatballs !
Luka Djokovic some of us would try zo return every freaking bit of the rocket... Well then good luck dude :D
+Luka Djokovic And in RP-0, you'd probably get all of it back from contracts...
+Luka Djokovic Rip KSC Wallet
He took off with all of that and came back with ONE PART
wow.. beautifully planned and executed!
Oh and this is the best KSP video I have ever seen
My CPU would not handle even one of those beasty rockets!
It aint so much bout ur CPU more a matter of RAM and probably VRAM
Yeah. But still.
Jere Ruotsalainen Nah it's CPU.
I don't have that good gaming PC.
There are huge parts, but I'm not sure there are that many parts. I'm pretty sure there never are more than 1000 parts at a time, and probably far less (~400?). Big/procedural parts really saves CPU.
If you remember this, you deserve a Veterans discount
this really does a great job showing the world of difference between regular KSP and RSS - the scale of everything is just incomparable. excellent presentation.
Great! Well done! I've been thinking weather to get KSP or not. This clinched it :)
What beast of a computer do you have. Geeez this looks amazing!!
a pretty fucking powerful one it looks like, theres no lag either
It did lag for him. He just speeds it up in post production! He said it in an earlier comment. Each launch took an hour he said.
Good gravy...
You, sir, are nothing short of legendary.
Kerbal goes to get out of capsule: That's one small step for....and he's dead
Best mission I have seen so far...
Very cool, i am just getting the hang of KSP. only just got two objects to dock in space and man what a feeling. I can only imagine the sense of accomplishment doing one of these missions brings. GJ.
このゲームここまで極めた人初めて見たわ天才かよ
The best video of KSP I ever see!
This was the most epic thing ive ever seen.
This is like a movie good work man keep it up :)
I cant believe that I missed this video for 2 years.
Beautiful video man.
9:05
It sounds like a streamer (possibly a speedrunner) is hitting the keyboard really fast
I love how well the video is put together. Really helps you appreciate how insane this thing is
That was captivating.
300 kPa during Venus liftoff... omg
It peaked around 440 kPa actually =D
Crazy. If my launches get 10% of that then I'm going REALLY fast really low. Typically I'll peak 20-30 kPa. I guess I am also surprised you did not burn up on liftoff either.
Bob Fitch
That actually surprised me too, but the shock heating doesn't really kick in until the pressure drops to a few atmospheres. I think it's because the atmospheric pressure is already so high that the relatively small increase in the shock wave doesn't result in any significant increase in temperature.
Ahhh that does make sense once you think about it.
Bob Fitch Hey! I was just thinking about how much I'm looking forward to this week's upcoming video and here you are!
This is one of those ksp videos that just show up once a year or so. Great edit, great music, and AMAZING mission!
Спасибо за видео! Красиво,как будто фильм документальный посмотрел :), снимай дальше.
your vids are fucking cool. nice climax. good cuts. what a beast you build.
Still, all these years later I look back on these videos as what I should achieve to be in KSP now. Great work man. Entry to Venus could have been smoother, but honestly, what could be smoother in a situation like this.
seen this 3 times now, i love the music and the sounds you added. 10/10
Also, can you explain why you boosted like that at 05:25 ?
Fuck youtube forcing you to make a new name
Thank you :)
You mean the multiburn escape? The TWR of the departure stage was ridiculously low, like 0.07. I would have a lost a serous amount of delta V had I tried to do it in a single burn.
Fuck youtube forcing you to make a new name To expand on the reply given, boosting like that gives more time at periapsis, allowing for more exploitation of the Oberth effect.
Fuck youtube forcing you to make a new name i think its the mod hot rockits or something of that nature
Fuck youtube forcing you to make a new name lol i thought you ment the color
You are amazing at this game.
My awesome Saturn V is the size of one of those boosters. Damn. This is the definition of glory, especially that first 3 minutes.
0:33 that separation was UHHHHH... mazing.. yeah... x]
Fuck it, we'll just bring the launchpad with us.
+Incredibly Creative Name OMFG REALY
Gothem Kaleidodoge ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Leaving everything that's not necessary behind. This is what you see when rocket science game meets badassery. It's about a couple years old video but this is one of my favorite KSP vid on here.
Am I the only one who noticed that it says “eve apoapsis”at points in this video?
11:30 makes me feel uneasy...
When building the rocket, did you consider putting a ladder on the inside of that ring (if possible), just in case Jeb fell in there?
I think i saw a ladder there
Justin Leone the ladder is on the in- and outside i think
Still one of the most impressive KSP videos ever made
from the mission itself to the cinematography to the sounds and music
it's just incredible.
as someone once said: If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing.
metropod Mythbusters?
nah, many people just come here and saw, video of game video,
but this video is looks like a ballet, if you know the theory: The Oberth theory, Tsiolkovsky equation formulas,
math of window to planet transfer, colibration of transfer course between planet, Reentry maths, and much much much more, science.
For those who play in KSP with FAR, and othar mods, that made this game even harder, and more realistic, this looks like a poem of science and math triumph.
perhaps, this isn't posible to travel to Venus, the atmosphere is too density, and surface is molted, temrepture degree is from 230C to 470C, and weather is always unstable making landing a spacecraft is nearly impossible :(( and launch back, is totaly impossible. (wind speed is about 100m/s )
+UnderSky A hundred years ago, do you think people thought we could do a hundredth of what we have done? It's never a good idea to say something is impossible. Maybe putting a person on Venus isn't going to happen in our lifetimes, but it sure as hell will happen.
+UnderSky Unlikely via current methods, but i'm sure eventually someone will find themselves walking around on it.
+ Austyn Hensley easy, earth formation is right there.
+Verdiss Hardly. With temperatures about 450-500°C. Thats slightly more then TWICE what you use to bake a pizza. Pressure equaling that of water in a depth of 900m on earth.
On the completely dark backside, cause it rotates very slowly, its very cold. Also there is no moon to reflect sunlight and make any light,
Athmosphere is hell. No magnetic field as well. so unfiltered cosmic radiation. Closer to the sun.
It rotates even slightly slower then it circles the sun So a venus day (and night) is longer then a venus year.
There wont be a person on venus. It makes no sense to even try.
There wont be terraforming. Youre better off trying your luck with some moons of the gas giants.
Its very hard to imagine there will be even working ELECTRONICS on venus for any length of time.. The russians got a glimpse of venus before their probes burned to death or were squeezed to it. Only when they basically sent a frozen tank did it survive on the surface. For about 2 hours.
Unmanned landing probes that may survive for months on the surface are planned again. in 10-15 years.
Its a fascinating planet. But everything that makes it fascinating, makes it absoluetly impossible (and pointless) to land a person on its surface. Or even a permanent structure.
Oh btw: As a keen amateur in KSP; What an amazing video/flight. Very very impressive. And beautiful.
+AnDay5zlebt maybe since the atmosphere is so dense, it will be possible to make floating cities somewhere around 40-50 km above its surface? The temperature there should be ok, pressure as well. Acidic clouds, on the other hand...
I was just thinking:
*kerbal gets out*
*instantly dies from the extreme tempratures and pressure*
"god dammit"
I love KSP, and I love messing around with RSS, I couldn't do that if my life depended on it!
a)how many time you ve tried before and failed?
b)where did you find these parts?
c)how much time took you to do that trip? (including the development of the ship?)
This particular mission worked on the first try in the sense that I never had to go back and redesign anything, altough I had to quickload several time due to pilot error, and the design almost resulted in unsalvageable failure on several occasions.
The biggest problem was the atmospheric entry at Venus. As you saw I lost several parts, and that was the only successful EDL after many, many quick loads. The lander was the component I had tested the most before actually flying the mission, so it was really frustrating that it caused me so much grief.
Don't remember exactly how much time I spent designing this mission, but it was several months of tinkering at least. Actually flying the mission took about one week if I remember right.
+maccollo 1 week wtf
***** master missions.. all these parts, sometimes their description is not specific of how they work and how.. and how you download them and use them? you have to buythe game and then istall them or they are included in the main pack?
Are you an engineer or work for NASA? Basically do you have elevated knowledge of science? lol
+mitropoulosilias most of the stuff is kW rocketry and I believe atomic engines along with realism overhaule and rss. Just get CKAN and have it installed it for you
one of the coolest ksp videos i think have ever seen
I have watched this video more than 10 times
Это нереально эпичный видос!
To this day, very few KSP videos can be compared with this one in terms of editing quality.
Really good integration with the score, great camera work.
then you realize
how da fuck is this rendering
