- Ho Ho Oh no I've gone mad.
Truly pushing the limits of KSP RSS/RO here. I thought it would be a fun idea to use a Saturn V as a tree topper... but that means an enormous tree! 600 meters tall, 180,000 tons! To launch it to Pluto takes an enormous rocket, probably the largest ever truly flown in KSP?
Oh boy did the game really try to stop me with so many kraken attacks. But I prevailed - so here's your Christmas gift. I hope you enjoy!

This is the greatest ksp video I have ever seen. That first stage probably caused extinction events both on ignition and when it came down. Awesome video! If Earth is ever in need of a second moon, I now know who to call
First lmao 😢😂😮😂😮😂😢🎉😅❤😊❤😊😮😂❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂🎉😮🚿🚿🚿🛀🛀🛀🛀🛀🛀🛀🛀🛀🛁
@@bonesoneuropa1610we don’t care
@@DinoRicky ik
I never thought that you can cause an Extinction event with a single rocket launch.
@I do a alternate timeline last I checked asteroids aren’t rockets.
More like 3
i mean nuclear missiles exist
@@angelpenarolo7408read my mind
This is absolutely insane. By far the largest rocket I've ever seen in KSP - the shots of it orbiting from the surface were bonkers. Extremely cool, and enjoyable video!
Guinness world record 2022 for the largest most ridiculous rocket in KSP
I want this to be an actual record but then it would just come down to who has the best computer and suites of mods
@@ThePhantomRocket You could also cheat by just making your own mod, then you wouldn’t need to use clusters and clusters of engines, but one single powerful engine maybe 1000x sea dragon engine thrust, that is efficient as hell (jet engine efficiency in a vacuum). And you could also use mods to make a 10km diameter fuel tank.
Guinness World record for the largest engine and thrust
@@fork9001 So your average guiness world record then.
When your christams trees is an titan n1 rocket
I'd imagine those RCS engines are pretty much F-1 engines
They're more akin to Sea Dragon engine size instead of F1 at this point!
M1 for the extra efficiency
@@TDChannelKSP They look smaller than the sea dragon upper stages on the landing stage.
@@fork9001 in between m1 and sea dragon 2nd stage side engines
That fucking first stage probably vaporized most of the Eastern seaboard
Or the nation
@@DinoRickythe whole Earth
@@ILikeBlackholes77that's the reason he didn't try to return, because there was nothing to return to. 😂😂
Every kerbal was inside the christmas tree
I don’t think I would’ve have ever expected someone to literally launch a small moon to orbit.
I spent a good 3 minutes laughing when i saw "4 billion ton srb"
2:04 And to think that at this scale the Saturn V is invisible... Insane.
Correction on my previous statement. The launch produced nearly 10 gigatons. Roughly 650 times more powerful than the Tsar bomb
Correct
Nice
So "only" 1/7200th of the dinosaur killer asteroid.
For a few minutes too
Merry Christmas. Just when I think you can’t get more insane, you go out and raise the bar
When your rocket needs an entire Saturn V as the escape launch system.
One of the thrusters on the RCS blocks is probably strong enough to rival that of the Saturn V first stage.
That was simply amazing, yet hilarious and epic! :)
Your videos deserve waaay more views! Keep up that good stuff!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the fun.
Will do. The channel slowly grows, just gotta keep making content...
The energy that SRB stack puts out over the course of the ascent is on par with the energy released by a few thousand tsar bombas
TFW your first stage is a small planetoid in it's own right.
Happy B day Jesus...
Largest rocket I’ve ever seen in this game
You are not alone....
The sheer size and reveal of the Christmas tree had me wheezing, phenomenal work!
Is that an angel on the tree? no it's a SaturnV of course 😄
I’ve never heard a more ominous rendition of Santa Claus is coming to town.
Elon Musk: Starship is the holy grail of rocketry!
TD Channel: *hold my beer*
Hold my extinction 1st stage
I don’t think “giant Christmas tree on top of a massive solids-only rocket with no scientific purpose” is the holy grail of rocketry, but sure.
@@fork9001
It is efficient in its design. The heck are you talking about?
@@topsecret1837 Stainless steel is a very heavy material (at least compared to aluminium or carbon composite). Uses rockets to land the upper stage. Uses ullage vents as RCS. Uses methane fuel. All the hallmarks of a mars lander/transfer vehicle and much less of an efficient cargo ferry/LEO launcher. Anyways I take back what I said about the inefficiencies of starship (although they could get much more performance out of a hydrogen upper stage for LEO and deep space missions where the fuel is expended/not needed for extended periods of time).
@@fork9001 there’s still the issue of how to accommodate hydrogen with an architecture that would not hold LH2 spectacularly well (since hydrogen escapes metallic containers at the atomic level)
dam, when i subbed like a year ago, i didnt think that things would be on THIS scale just a year later xD
Remember: if your ship is tall enough you don't actually have to launch it, the top is already at your destination and you can just climb out
You did an excellent job with the forced perspective on the community post, I thought the tree was only 4-5m tall!!
The community post features the tree at the start of the video! So *that* tree is 4-5m tall... but not the big one.
and i thought the first stage was gonna blast a crater the size of texas in place of merrit island. Very cool that you sent the tree to pluto and can’t wait for the crewed pluto mission to visit the tree.
That first stage ignition probably evaporated the entire atmosphere of kerbin in 2 seconds
It's Earth here, not kerbin ;)
@@TDChannelKSPok so an ELE even before the 1st stage separation
You just caused in 20 seconds what an asteroid can’t in 10000 years
Impressive
I came across this channel by random and now I am addicted to your videos.
Im curious, if half of your aircraft is in space and the other half isnt, does only half the craft experience drag
Short answer; yes.
@@Bluehemi long answer?
@@ionutcosmin4139 let's say you have a large beam, 50km long.
Stick one end in space and the other in the atmosphere. Only the lower end will experience drag, which while in orbit will make the beam spin, as the top end isn't experiencing any drag compared to the lower end.
It depends on what is negligible drag and what is not, because technically if you are within earth’s sphere of influence you are experiencing some drag. The atmosphere truly ends at a few million km altitude, but drag becomes mostly negligible at ~500km. If you have a giant 1000km long aircraft, the top 3 quarters will experience much less drag than the bottom quarter.
In real life Yes, in KSP No.
Damn this is purified kerbal essence at it's best! You are crazy! Love it!
So the thing you launched at my among us was actually a christmas tree to pluto rocket.
2022 Halloween: Satan V
2022 Christmas: Saturn Shuttle
2023 New Year: Christmas Vs Halloween
That Stage 1 engine probably caused the sixth mass extinction when it hit the earth, because that's the equivalent of *THE CHICXULUB ASTEROID (Asteroid that caused the 5th mass extinction)* hitting earth.
Also, the rocket looks very similar to Apollo^3...except for Stage 4 and beyond.
The Interplanetery Exploration Vehicle (IEV)
was used in project andoria it has a manned rover with controls to land also the rover was used to find THE ARCHIVE.
This was complete insanity at its best. Amazing work!
you mentioned Apollo cubed at the end of the video so what if you put that 27 ton crewed moon lander on the top and did 4 landings? that would be scary
edit: actually 23 tons so might be more possible lol
It is 23t
Woah, this is madness, and I love every minute of it.
Now that rocket right there, is truly deserving of the title "Untitled Space Craft"!
Amazing! Now I see how you could get a Saturn V fully fueled to Saturn! Basically just send this thing to Saturn!
After seeing how much problems you were having launching this monstrosity, I have one mod I'd like to suggest to you, but IDK if it has a version working in the latest versions of KSP (that have stable versions of RSS/RO released for them anyways).
UbioZor Part Welding Mod.
It lets you weld together any number of parts that are "the same" in a broad sense. Fuel tanks, structural elements, not sure but probably engines...
And when I say "weld", boy I mean it. The welding process requires a game restart since it literally adds a new part to the game (that is the combination of parts you wanted to weld together, but considered as a single gigantic part by the game engine, instead of multiple parts like it was before welding it).
It should help you out massively with these gigantic payloads that are composed of many parts of widely differing sizes. The Kraken can't strike on a single part you see, no matter how massive it may be.
you earned my sub. this was too epic!
Amazing! The Andoria at the end gave me Nebuchadnezzar vibes
Nice accomplishment! Legendary
Christmas music in minor key is awesome. And this video is very awesome
Absolutely amazing. Watched it with my jaw dropped.
What did you do for Christmas, “oh I just ended all life on earth by sending a Christmas tree to Pluto”
Merry Christmas
I never thought I would hear a metal cover of Silent Night.
A space elevator would be more practical than this IRL.
Absolutely amazing!
When I saw "JK. The saturn V is PART of the tree" I fucking died lmfaooooooo
Incredible ksp video
That thing is bigger than some actual moons.
You've probably launched more total mass in this one rocket than the entire total mass of every rocket ever launched on Earth in real life, by several orders of magnitude. I'm surprised KSP can even handle this.
Also, that crewed landing vehicle looks excellent; I look forward to the video on it.
It has only like 100 parts, lil lag
The launch site is henceforth known as Crater Canaveral
Angled on the pad. THAT PAD IS THE WHOLE DAMN KSC! AWESOME!
Spacex: we have the biggest rocket!!!
TDchannel: 💀
Merry Christmas!
Lmao the Andoria lander and the Christmas tree on the same save.
An incedibly detailed, complicated and lore heavy project Vs a massive shitpost of a built (that is incredibly fun)
The fact by lore, the ar hive can now have a happy holiday
How much crack did you need for coming up with this absurd monstruosity? I love this.
Sea dragon: I'll launch out of the sea so I won't destroy the launch pad!
Kerbal Rocket tree: who would have wanted Florida anyway? Who would have wanted to use low earth orbit either! Because with this upper stage and the space junk from it will render it unusable for some time!
That rocket blew a very massive crater that’s over 40 to 60 miles wide and 10 miles deep which vaporized everyone and everything at Cape Canaveral. That first stage during reentry probably created a 20 mile high tsunami flooding everything in sight! 😂😂😂
*when the thing taking off is an extinction level event*
Obscenely Amazing!
Merry Insane-Mas.
The griswold family Christmas tree!
Yes, this was definitely worth it
that landing burn melted all the ice on pluto
You know you have built a giant rocket because everything else starts wobbling from the floating point error
I WANT THAT CHRISTHMAS TREE!!!!
The most kerbal thing I have ever seen.
lets go
I love how one RCS thruster on the tree is half the size of project andoria
You are a madman
ABSOLUTE MONSTROSITY
that is for the mind of the game go foward into the stars and see what you can do keep going on expand your mind fly on kerbal gamers - sincerly, reckspace rp1
U successfuly make Saturn v looks like the Launch escape system
I can't believe this happened last christmas
I have seen some ridiculous things in KSP, but this tops the tree
you know? Your always up to something ambitious maybe not always but you know but this on,
How?????
What have I seen… *new religion unlocked: the chunky crazily powered tree
I have no words
Guy is using a super computer for this monstrosity
Wonderful!!!
"I launched a 19km rocket to pluto in KSP (Realism Overhaul mod)"
i like how the engines themselves are shaped like a christmas tree
POG
I have a cool name for that first stage srb. ''The roaring bell of doom''
Also holy crap that thing is huge lol
You know, sometimes the rocket equation is beautiful
I would be terrified to share a save with you
Hey yo this music is kinda cool lol
i have no words
"69 years" 4:47
That kerbal held on for the entire journey
This tree caused more devastation than anything humans have ever created, that first stage alone looks like it could sink japan
When Santa causes a volcanic winter.
This thing is more than half the length of Gilly lmao
I wish you a merry cristmes and a rocket powerd new year.
if that thing came crashign down it would be like chixulub all over again
Kerban probably now facing the apocalypse from the first stage hitting Kerben
The Kraken doesnt like Christmas
The kerbals prototyping their technology to turn Minmus into a giant spaceship!
