    My father worked for Hughes Aircraft, and his last big assignment was as project manager for the Galileo probe. He retired not too long after it was launched from the shuttle. I remember him having to drive out to JPL all the time, and sometimes having to travel to NASA Ames as well. He was so very proud of how well the probe functioned once it hit the atmosphere of Jupiter. He passed away at the end of 2014, and whenever I see pictures of Jupiter nowadays, I like to think part of his soul is there. Thank you for this wonderful video, I know Dad would have loved it.

      Space is fake! 2nd law of thermodynamics, you must have a container for our gas pressure here on flat earth. You claim space is -17 tor, good luck with that lol...we would all be dead, gas cannot exist with a vaccum. Gas expands to fill it's space, cannot happen on a globe.

      I did an essay in college about the Galileo probe before its launch from the space shuttle. I even put together a model of this probe. My college astronomy class was at NASA Ames. I may have crossed paths with your father. I never imagined that in a few years I would move from Mt. View CA to Cape Canaveral to work as a technician on the Space Shuttles for Rockwell international.

    Watching all 14 ep is sequence, from the first test rocket to the Cassini its impressive to see how much has changed at the JPL infrastructure, yet it retains the loose atmosphere of academia. Its sad to read of the passing of some scientists at early ages at at the height of their careers, also to see other scientists age, and rise through the ranks, as the missions continue, this was most striking in the Voyager missions. Please keep the videos coming,

    The story of the Galileo mission, it’s technology, and the people involved is a stunning tribute to the beautiful side of humanity and what can be accomplished when working together, wonderfully presented in this documentary. The technology and problem solving are amazing by themselves, but moreover it’s the cohesiveness, enthusiasm, and energy of Galileo’s diverse team, motivated by the mysteries of our universe that really shines through. It is a template for living life, nourishing sparks of interest and following them to where they go, especially for the young wondering what to do with their lives. JPL and it’s media division have done a wonderful job showing an aspect of our space program and, even more importantly, a broader demonstration of what our civilization is capable of.

Oh how I wish I was half as smart as you gals/guys at JPL...! My one moment of glory was the Shoemaker Levy comet impact on Jupiter, as a 20yo I had an argument with my Father about the event , he said "nothing will happen as Jupiter is just gas " , I said it will be cataclysmic as Jupiters core is liquid metal and its gravity is MASSIVE...! I was right. Although even I was shocked at the intensity of those impacts. My bucket list's first objective is a tour through JPL's facilities...! Yes I am a proud average intelligence NERD..!

For the first time my 33.6kbps Internet seemed adequate to download NASA mission images. Can't imagine what the team went through. Was very young during the Voyager missions but by Galileo I had access to a PC and the Internet! Followed it really close, didn't miss a single trajectory correction maneuver. 😃Was subbed to the weekly/monthly newsletter.

    Wow. I was just a child when all of this happened and didn't realize how many complications the Craft and Everyone involved had to go through to deliver such amazing photos/data..
    Io's volcano's and of course Europa's plumes of liquid water from a subsurface ocean blew my mind at the time..
    ..Since then I always wanted someone to put a lander/rover on Io to show an erupting volcano in 'live-time'. I figured if we showed the public another body with a dynamic surface like an active volcano it would spark more public interest etc.
    But is a Io rover/lander even possible at this point? Is the 'speed' involved too much to 'land' an object, or is it the radiation? Or..

    This is an excellent video, but the statement at 38:50 is misleading. It talks about Ganymede being the largest moon and that if it circled the sun it would be a planet. Well, yeah, it would but not because of its size but because it would be circling the sun. Size has nothing to do with it. Sure Pluto getting demoted confused the situation, but the statement is still misleading.

      Pluto did not get demoted, it got reclassified. After all it's only a Kuiper Belt object. There is no confusement. The only unfortunate thing is that they could only agree on naming objects failing to meet the third criterion dwarf planets. "Dwarf planet" contains the element "planet". This was not an ideal choice.

    "Waiting for Ganymede All Night" by the Galileo Crew. Perfect! Well done, JPL for a great video!
    Elon Musk's folks at Space X are droll and sour persons of little or no personality in contrast to NASA JPL. As an old Fleet Ballistic Missile Submarine sailor, I can not imagine what it would be like to be stuck in close proximity with a hundred rich know-nothing spoiled Musk-brats for 2yrs. I think "Avenue 5" on HBO comes close.

      Actually, I think its Musk whom is the know-nothing rich kid. Alot of people working under Musk have to put up with his egotistical temdencies..
      Musk has had to shut down shell compamies due to incompetence.
      Hes just another Trump.
