#Artemis1

[[[HEADPHONES ON]]] Crank the volume on this incredible floating point audio from inside the pad and 3.5 miles [5.6 km] away from the most powerful rocket to ever launch from Kennedy Space Center, SLS!!! 4K slow motion captured on ZCam's and BlackMagic 12K Ursa and Studio 4K's.
NASA launched the Orion spacecraft to a distant retrograde lunar orbit atop the Space Launch System (SLS) for its maiden launch known as Artemis 1. Launched from Launch Complex 39B, at the Kennedy Space Center, in Florida, the Artemis I mission will certify both Orion and the SLS Block 1 rocket for crewed spaceflight.

The sounds of the SRB was phenomenal. Truly grateful to be living in an age where space exploration is coming back

[@baddgeeksquad]

Yea

[@pauld6967]

@Hampter I was late to the office that morning but being someone who watched Apollo, there was no way that I wasn't going to watch the launch of Artemis 1 live. Even if it only meant getting a few hours sleep post-launch before having to wake up & get on the road, since I am on Eastern time. 🙂

[@john_in_phoenix]

As someone who experienced Mercury, Gemini, Apollo and the Shuttle, don't hold your breath. Instead write your congressional representative to continue funding Starship.

[@NCC_1701]

You know this expendable rocket technology has been around for 40+ years, right? This entire vehicle is made form 40-70 year old technology which killed multiple crews. In fact, the space shuttle program was ended precisely because this technology caused the loss of two vehicles The SRBs are the same exploding ones slightly modified and elongated, and the heat shield composites are at least 60 years old, and the massive centre tank's autogenous pressure system is dancing so close to the edge of collapse that NASA have called off two launches and sent a crew of three redshirts in to tighten some bolts while the thing was fully fuelled on the launch pad to crank some bolts. The only thing worse than NASA still operating on a 1960's state-funded launch ethos like Russia is the fact that they are funding a SpaceX lander to do the final leg of the moon landings when spaceX's ship could do the whole trip anyway! NASA should spend the 4 billion per-launch SLS cost on fireworks as Starship vertically lands back on Earth with Luna astronauts after vertically taking off from Earth three weeks prior. It would be the most spectacular NASA fireworks to date, without having killed capsules or ships filled with astronauts.

Hey Tim. That was amazing!! I would love to see a video on what controls they use to keep damage mitigated on the launch platform other than the water deluge system.

There's a video where a director for the launch platform actually goes through how it fared. There was plenty of surface/paint damage but mainly cosmetic and repairable, and the power of the rocket actually blew off the elevator doors so it took a little longer to assess the complete platform because they needed to restore functionality to the elevators. Literally blew the doors off.
