    • @Rayden440
      @Rayden440 7 років тому +3

      I would argue that NASA is not being ambitious enough. During the Apollo missions, only two Saturn V rockets were tested in unmanned flights, the third launch of the Saturn V rocket was manned (Apollo 7). There was an engine failure on the second unmanned launch, but they decided to go ahead with Apollo 7 without an additional unmanned launch to test their improvements/changes (incredibly ballsy). The Space Race era of NASA is filled with ambition and determination to catch up and overtake the Soviets because the USSR was way ahead of the USA for most of the Space Race.
      After going to the moon a few times, public support and government funding for NASA dwindled. They had a choice between going to Mars and building the Space Shuttle. As you probably know, they chose the shuttle and humans never left low earth orbit ever again :(

I really hope they get this done, it is already $9 billion over its original budget of $1 billion U.S. So 10 times what they said it would cost, but they have NASA by the short hairs on this and know they can basically delay as long as they want and keep raking in $$$ because now it is far too late to pull funding, too big to fail. IF they get it all to work I will be massively impressed, but there are a lot of things that can go wrong. Before this video I had no idea how complicated the deployment is going to be.

    the launch of the James Webb telescope by the French team in French Guiana was so precise that Naza communicated that the telescope would have years of life more than what had been planned ... indeed the propellant on board in the telescope which was intended to periodically readjust the position of the telescope in space, was saved, because it was not used to correct the trajectory! a huge success for Ariane and this French team. Naza is happy, ESA is happy ... i'm so happy !!

      It wasn't lost, it was a top secret satellite, so clearly if they had put on paper the exact payload detach time someone could have calculated its position after launch and looked at it. They just pretended they lost it and passed it as a big conspiracy, like they did with aliens in the 50's... Left SpaceX to have to just say their launch went as expected on their end, and blamed it on the company that made the adapter, a company that just happens to be a gigantic military industrial corporation with top secret clearance and all the money they could ever want from the US military...

      Well, this one is much more difficult construction. Getting that folded thing straight and collimated is enormous challenge. There is many chances to optical mistakes.
      As a project I see this very suspicious, so many phases and critical components. Say there is 100 things having 99% reliability, then failure results 63% of probability. Success rates for rocket launches are about 95 - 98%

      @@oremooremo5075 They did have Hubble's mirror tested on the ground independently and the problem was found, but this finding was ignored because the test done by the maker of the mirror was more precise and indicated perfection. The problem was twofold: 1) the independent test was indeed less precise but it was still more than precise enough for the major error it found, yet it was still ignored; and 2) the maker's test was done using the same apparatus used to make the mirror, so of course the results matched (this only told them that the mirror grinding was done, not that it was done right), which is a really stupid way to test, no matter how precise the test may be. It's rather pathetic how the problem managed to slip through like this. How dumb can people be? Extremely. This basic logic went right over the heads of top experts in their field.
      Anyway, the root cause of the problem was that one of the devices used to both measure and grind the mirror had the wrong setting. The person setting the parameter actually did it right, but the device was broken and then fixed in a crude manner that threw off the setting. Fortunately, the apparatus hadn't been touched since the mirror was made, so despite not having access to the mirror, NASA was able to figure out how to optically correct the error with extreme precision, essentially giving Hubble exactly the right "glasses" it needed. If this hadn't been the case, then there would have been no way to do this, and Hubble would have remained crippled. It actually still would have been useful as a tool for scientific research, but far short of its potential.
