It's mind-blowing! What inside the SpaceX Dragon shocked NASA's astronauts...

[@markchapmon8670]

If memory serves me correctly, SpaceX was not a government project or built with a government contract. Being free of the burdens of government interference, SpaceX built the best system to take people into space. The government shuttle program had one-time use fuel tank/rocket boosters on either side. Although the shuttle itself was reusable, those boosters were replaced, not reused. SpaceX recovers all of the pieces parts they launched from earth, verifies they can be used again and now they have the most comfortable, reusable and cost effective vehicle to go into space. Think about that the next time our government says it is best to leave the big decisions to them.

[@WJV9]

They are totally funded by government contracts and NASA. They have used government money to also launch their low earth orbit satellite network. They still have not lowered the cost per launch to the point they said they would years ago, I think reworking boosters has taken more time/money than they thought.

[@markchapmon8670]

@@WJV9 I stand corrected. I forgot about Musk getting the biggest dollar value contract ever from the government. That information was published quite a while back, not like it was yesterday's news. Sorry about the faulty statement.

The Bread and Butter Dragon Does it all ! Very High Performance Stuff ! Docking Alone Being Done + Everything Else Being Upgraded with Auto Return, Booster Landing Big Screen T.V's or Monitors has to be One of the Most Successful Achievements in Civilian Space Contracting !

Congratulations to Space X and team for the excellent job in space travel.

[@robhawthorne6892]

I’d like to say Space X is 30 years ahead of the rest, but it’s more like Space X is on time, the rest are 30 years behind..

Hats off to these amazing, brave individuals. Elon is a dreamer that then brings his imagination to reality. I wish the powers that be would release the tethers and allow him to soar.

[@timmccleary8615]

The video was informative, but the title was pure clickbait.

[@alphatech4966]

Thank you for your reminder!

[@badhabit6140]

Just stumbled on your channel for the first time. Big Kyle Hill fan and only knew this channel from his videos. Gotta say, I’m glad to see the improvement and I’m really relieved to see that you guys took it as a chance to better the quality and accuracy and not just ignore it. I’m sure that it’ll pay off if not already. I love seeing channels grow and learn from controversies and not just ignore them.

[@badhabit6140]

The thumbnails and titles are still a bit too clickbaity for me, but call me old school. And gotta give credit where improvements were made

Actually, Wally Schirra flew in the Mercury, Gemini, and the Apollo Command Module. And John Young flew in Gemini, the Apollo Command Module, the Apollo Lunar Lander, and Space Shuttle, for a total of four different spacecraft models.

Great history, thanks.

Actually the capsule is retrieved first before the crew is removed not the other way around. Have you actually ever watched a splash down and recovery?

[@jonnies]

Excuse me, you’re actually being incredibly rude. Please cease and desist.

@@jonnies Have you actually ever watched a splash down and recovery? it's a fair question when they actually gave the wrong information.

I understand regulators and nasa preference for parachutes but i think with time using parachutes would look as weird as using parachutes to land an aeroplane. Even using autogyro would seem less weird.

Is that a Ninja about to take out an Astronaut? 0:24

[@michaelstoliker971]

355 astronauts have flown on the space shuttle, 45 people have flow in the Crew Dragon. So what was that about more astronauts have flown on crew dragon than any other?

[@michaelreedx6823]

Random fact: More people have died in the space shuttle then have died in the Crew Dragon.

After splashdown of the last manned flight the dragon was loaded onto the ship with the astronauts inside, not separately.

Before going out to where ever you is going to finally, don't forget a Map, so you can find your way back... A globe compartment is always useful for this purposes....🎉

I'm very surprised that none of the astronauts mentioned if Dragon was comfortable and spacious. They probably did, but this video didn't include it.

[@briangalton7068]

Any chance you can actually put something new in what you post?

[@karac833]

Sometimes he does... but with the goal of daily videos, he has to rehash and stretch out what info is out there. Similar channels seem to give us history lessons every time they post. Most of us would be 'enthusiasts' so this type of old data is pretty much redendant.

[@Saki630]

yeah because these kids going to space have never gone to war, or witnessed deaths first hand in the process of getting to space.

[@Saki630]

Cringe clickbait TikTok style video. Glad I will be blocking this channel. It is so cringe that you see computer screens and an autopilot system claiming its futuristic and mind blowing --- when every commercial airplane uses this already. What happens when the computer on board (hopefully redundant) doesn't work, commands from the ground cant be intercepted completely, and the astronauts need to get back to Earth? Do they just hit the center divider, flip, burn up and die like that autopilot car?

[@leohemara4198]

thanks

[@Fhysique]

🤡you good? Not much of a clickbait title compared to a lot of videos, not sure what youre so mad about. Go outside, take a break kid. Youre obviously angry about something in life so maybe get away from the computer.

[@daveyshmavey]

Haha! It’s triple redundant. I’m sure it’s pretty much a sign here and accept the risk. It can’t be flown, so it can either escape, and come down gently, or blow up. There is way more technology in a flip phone than there was in the first crewed spacecrafts. Did you watch the whole thing?

[@Fireblot8826]

Touchscreens in vehicles are a disaster. Reducing pilots to cargo whose safety is dependent on computer code is a recipe for trouble. Celebrating this nonsense is stupid.

[@kingpickle3712]

Just like on submarines with tones of touchscreens controlling everything, there are also backup systems that allow you to manually operate anything just in case something fails. I know this because NASA and the Submarine force have the same strict standards raises your chance of survival.

[@Livinghighandwise]

This isn't 1970 anymore Peter.. Those modern computer screens are all redundant and extremely reliable thanks to the reduction in the number of components. Also, every spacecraft since the 60s has relied on automation in all parts of flight. Dragon does take automation to the next level, which is something modern computers allow them to do. It makes the mission much safer overall.

[@TheNEWPORT200]

[@Fireblot8826]

Living high: Thanks for the reply. My experience with failed glass cockpits in small aircraft is behind my comment. Mechanical flight controls and analog instrument backups have saved me more than once.
