SLS is fantastic really. The future capabilities are huge. 2028 is the end if ISS under NASA so after that SpaceX won't have any ISS traffic. Starship will cost quite a lot.
Personally i think such projects are vital to any exploration efforts. Exploration does not bring in revenue short term so you need external funding source. When Jim Bridenstine said SLS is backbone of artemis program he didnt lie. Had there not been something like SLS program just would get scrapped. Programs like these are like skeletal structure onto which you latrr attach stuff. And i think, and hope such projects, for reasons given, will exist in the future. Not necessairly in form of launch vehicle, but for instance, very large payload like interplanetary Transport vehicles built by tens of companies, etc.
Hey, just wanted to tell you that these videos that you made are very very good and well built. You deserve much more subs and I guess that you''ll get more at sometime eventually. Keep it up buddy
Hey thanks! These kind of messages really help. We have four new videos is production right now, including some with the help of some new friends at NASA. Stay tuned!
"starships alot cheaper" if it costs the taxpayer over 5billion &still doesnt even EXIST.. &wont be able to do HALF of what the SLS does IF its ever completed.. (like achieve lunar insertion by itself for instance) its DEFINITELY not cheaper 🙃
Very good points! Starship is only cheaper if it lives up to the promises and is fully operational. I'll admit, I was disappointed to see it chosen as the lunar lander for Artemis because so much has to be developed in order to get to a functional Starship lunar lander - it's a much longer development timeline than building a lander that could be compatible with Falcon Heavy, SLS, or other existing heavy-lift rockets. I do think we'll get a fully operational Starship eventually, but it's going to be a while.
This is such a big and complicated topic, we just couldn't get into all the details we really could have. So here's a list of some great videos on the various elements of this video! 🔗 Why The US Took So Long To Replace Space Shuttle's Crew Capability by Scott Manley - ua-cam.com/video/z49eVQ6LxIE/v-deo.html 🔗 Why don’t we fly the Saturn V? (Deep dive into SLS development and decisions) By Eager Network - ua-cam.com/video/ZNZx208bw0g/v-deo.html 🔗SLS vs SpaceX Starship by Everyday Astronaut - everydayastronaut.com/sls-vs-starship/ 🔗 Why cant we remake the F1 Engines?

Hey mate, Just wanted to let you know that your videos are absolutely awesome. Infinitely entertaining while being super informative. It's an absolute mystery how you only have 300 subscribers. The music, editing and overall composition of you material is incredible. Keep persevering, you'll be at a million in no time! Thanks again!
Wow, this really means a lot! These kind of comments help make it worth it. Definitely a subject I care about! We have a super fun video coming out in early December so be watching for it!
And then NASA does nothing- since that money won’t be given to them to do those other things without a program of record. An all private Artemis totally locks out the public benefit as well- all vehicles and programs would be too secret- like Crew Dragon. And investigations into failures are allowed to be classified from the public. Even depicting the vehicles is subject to corporate approval (even fan renderings). Benefits to the public are subject to corporate approval and will be mostly photographic instead of technical details that we used to get with shuttle or Apollo.

Keep up the good work !
Thank you! Love making these for you guys.
Great channel 🎉🎉🎉

These are definitely some of the outcomes I am nervous of for the future.
Extremely good editing
Appreciate it! If I'm honest, the editing is my favorite part of the process 🤓
Good explanation brother 👍
Thank you! It's a complex topic.
