For example, almost getting rid of entry burn and idea behind 6 legs for landing. Personally i wish them luck, i think there some ideas there that are actually an evolution of SpaceX ideas and if they pan out they will be new standard for reusable rockets. Then again if catching the booster like SpaceX tries to do pans out, that will set the standard for removing the legs altogether on such a system. We are witnessing processes and norms for reusable rockets being written and explored in real time and in ten to twenty years some of those will be history and standards, like some of the stuff explored and tested in the 60'ties are now for rockets.

I mean the issue with BO was never Jeff, but more that BO was using old space tactics and generally not really bringing the full capabilities of the private, vertically integrated capabilities that their situation would allow. For example BO got known for their lobbying and legal warfare, trying to patent ocean landings, sue NASA for not handing them the HLS contract out the gate, and generally doing the things that Old space was already ubiquitously known for. That is what got them their bad rep. This, and of course their slowness in acting on, well, everything.

The thumbnail looks like a cheap clickbait video, but the content is mindblowing. Tim is simply the best, the one and only, the Everyday Astronaut, bringing space down to us everyday people. Thanks!

[@pimisi]

Thank you so much, Tim, for bringing us this kind of content. You've saved us from the Discovery Channel abandoning us and no longer caring to provide these types of documentaries. One thing though, please get your cameraman to focus more on the equipment than the person explaining it, rather than just panning in and immediately out.

[@Ahldor]

My guess is they were instructed to not film just anywhere. Remember it's highly classified stuff in that building, and I'm sure the Chinese are all over this video trying to deblur it to get some goodies for their own rocket projects. I'm actually very thankful that Everyday Astronaut was allowed to show us this much.

[@alanlawless7750]

ITAR. Some of the things in that building simply cannot be filmed.

Wonderful shepard, i was part of the team working on the sensor Fusion and Feedback Loops integration on this rocket, it was a nightmare, and we eventually became successful, after testing the sensor inputs over and over, and having sleepless nights.

Dude I’ve followed your channel way way before you talked with Elon or any other space company and I’m just blown away by how far you’ve come. Your living the dream of millions of space and science nerds all across the world 🌎 Keep up the amazing work you’re doing. Your videos are second to NONE ❤

Wow11 For YEARS I've thought of Blue Origin as "Bezos' Vanity Project". This tour has stomped THAT idea into dust. Seeing what's been done, and what is coming . . . . Can't wait!

Come to Cape Canaveral in late-October for inaugural NG launch !

​I really need to see a launch some time soon...

@@daveenright1235 I plan to be down there for Artemis II, I'm hoping it lines up with a bunch of other launches too.

He seemed like a genuinely nice guy. I got the impression you could sit down with him and have a beer and talk about space crap all day and he would love it. I can't wait for part 2... Great job Tim! 😃

@35:00 i feel like im in an unskippable cutscene where my character has been drugged and kidnapped by bezos lol

[@TheRealestHi]

That entire blurred section must’ve really angered some Chinese engineers.😂

[@JigilJigil]

True.

[@gl0wingice]

they will use AI to un-blur it, (it won't be right) and they will say close enough and sell it as the real deal.

[@TallinuTV]

Yeah, say it together now: I T A R 😅

The main thing I like is just how chill Tim is the entire time, there for the rockets and good chat and it comes across really well.

[@ihaveanunorigionalname]

the blurr when u went up into the section with the hydralic actuators was such a BLUE ball moment

[@TheVantriliquist13]

Yeah ITAR restricted and company controlled

[@tomsriver2838]

As a Chinese space engineer, I agree.

[@donjones4719]

I really enjoyed seeing Jeff so enthusiastic about the engines and their different advantages. He is rightly proud of his team for that novel design of the upper stage engine. People can say he's not a rocket engineer but I'd compare him to someone who owns high-performance cars and knows all of the details of how they work.
