Jupiter II flight to the Moon

Jupiter II from the "Lost in Space" TV series. The FS9 version of the ship can be obtained for free at Pendercrafts.com I have included a start up sequence to take off and reaching space as far as able to in FS9 version.

That was great , finally I got to see the J2 flying over a city ,,,,,, it actually puts some closure to the series. Thank you so very much for sharing this video with us all , wonderful.

[@oscarmendez590]

Great video, but that theme song looping over-and-over-and over...….Oh, the humanity!

[@joecordes5027]

what a great series lost in space was never to be repeated special times just solid gold that good special time.

[@albertmontes11]

Nice animation

[@61seaview]

Still very cool for me too. The sound in flight is a classic sound. As a kid, I would look forward to the episodes where the J2 lifted-off and landed and when it was in space. Irwin Allen put a lot into his show's vehicles.

[@MugsySkull]

That was a lot of fun!

[@ytoal]

Nice, I want to take the next ride..

[@61seaview]

His are all classic shows and movies in my book - you can tell from my user name. I liked the early LIS episodes the best while it was still serious sci-fi, but Dr. Smith kept all seasons fun! I have all seasons on DVD and lots of LIS memorabilia. Now if I could just build my own house in the form of the J2...what a dream life that would be! Ok, I know I'm weird.

Hola muy bonito todo saludos cordiales

[@bodeanism]

@grueha the exaust vaports could still be appropriate. they had rocket thrusters on each side for additional manuvering, maybe they had a rear booster too.

[@61seaview]

A great video but I agree the continuous music is distracting. It would be much cooler just to hear the sound of the J2 engines. Whoever made this, can you remove the music loop?

[@tcevatt50]

Jupiter 2 uses EM and gravity to navigate..no thrusters. Episodes were forced to use them..

[@Spidious]

Actually, they did use thrusters to navigate. Just watched an episode this week where they used thrusters to avoid hitting a planet. It didn't work, but they tried.

[@scottburris4318]

I agree. One loop of that music was plenty, even back in 1966. And as for the take off...was Debbie flying it? Or was there a 200 mph cross wind on initial take off? Maybe Dr.Smith was attempting to drag his feet.

[@rumbers]

Great stuff Spid. Very realistic. It would be better if dubbed with the subtle incidental score rather than the theme music however.

[@ConservativeMan59]

Holy cow, it almost struck the ground when the gear came up and why the low altitude departure?

[@kennethwingle3610]

I did a remake of the derelict in 4K using studio models and Filmora 9 video editing software. Check it out at this link below: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGqWoKJ6Yq2Xjtk

[@anthonyclarke5579]

That engine could do with a bit of oil mate.

[@tekiup]

@61seaview At 1st Dr. Smith was a sinister cold blooded spy, then they made him goofy.

[@CW1O]

؟ wawwwwwwww thes is awsome

[@marcparella]

Remember escape velocity from Earth is about 24,000 MPH. The Jupiter looks like is going about 150 knots... that won't get you to the moon.

[@cidron9201]

cant do those speeds over populated areas unless you want to cause .... just a bit of havoc. Jets dont fly low at any high speeds for the same reason, and definitely not at 25k mph !

[@clementvining2487]

Yes for rockets but not for some kind of inertia distortion drive. Basically antigravity or inertia mass damping. This kind of drive could over come gravity without high acceleration. It would also be able to do slow reentery without a heatshield. In fact a ship with enough constant thrust could do the same thing. We can't do that at this time because we don't have a propulsion system capable of doing that without running out of fuel. Once you are outside the atmosphere you would go a lot faster than we can now.

SWEET

[@RodgerDodger196]

I KNEW A GUY NAMED PENDERS! & HE DREW COMICS!! Is that the SPIDER-MAN SIDE OF YOUR LIST?! I saw PENDERS in the roll out!! Haven’t seen him since he got married way back when How many PENDERS are out there?? I knew him around -007//MOONRAKER YEARS!! I saw this on Jan 10/2025 18 years ago=2007🤔WELL THATS LONG AFTER MOONRAKER ETC SO COULD BE HIM. Does he still have that 5,000 comic book box collection? Or his friend had 15,000 /he had 10,000 & I eventually had 5,000 don’t rightly collect anymore(still reading what I got(IF HE SEES THIS AND NOTHING MAKES SENCE(then it’s NOT HIM LIKED YOUR JUPITER 2!( where the moon!? I thought we were going there( besides that tiny picture. ( or was Alpha Moonbase there???

[@MsJinkerson]

Fred where did you get the sound of the atomic motor of the J 2 I have been hunting it down for years

[@tekiup]

@Rivera114 Me too! I thought I was the only one. With all 3 levels in it too! LOL

[@tjfreak]

Nice work ! your stuff feeds a fixation I've had with the J2,thats never really gone away. The critics always amaze me, although not really.

[@RGOdenJr]

What exactly is needed to use the flight sim of jupiter2? I looked for fs9 and it kept telling me to get everything but the utility for this.

[@videoblast]

@Rivera114 I have the same dream. J-2 house on a hill with a live steam train set running around it!

[@MrJacMac1968]

If the Robinsons ever returned to Earth maybe Alpha Control would let them have the Jupiter 2 as a house.They could fly it anywhere on Earth.Say they could land it in Australia, Colorado,Mexico,even Chicasaw Falls Michigan(ha ha).John could use the chariot to drive to work or drive a regular car.They could extract their own water and have their own power via deutronium(no connecting to the grid).Course Smith would be arrested when they get back.Smith might con his way to house arrest .

Where's the Moon?

they should make that for fsx

A mí sí me gusta la música The Lost in Space sino tiene chiste

[@B52FORTRESS]

Is the j2 available for fax?

[@patrickbishop8725]

I mean fsx

[@johnsinclair4448]

Lose the music, and what's with the smoke trail and "retro rocket" effects?

[@Spidious]

John Sinclair just turn your music/sound off. As far as the rockets. The one on the show had them. Almost looked the same. But they didn't use them very often.

[@patrickpeterson9873]

Back gro

[@johnthomson2846]

took along time to take off and head for the moon christ i could of marched there faster..jt

[@markpr73]

I was ok with this until the takeoff, with the landing struts dragging on the ground. It’s not the LEM, for God’s sake🤣.

[@Spidious]

Mark Porter we finally got the straight up take off problem solved.

[@bradleyparker8623]

wait didn't the 1st ship that left earth in 1964 have a bright pulsating glow that turned the ship white? just like this ---------->kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5jddXqarr6VnrM

[@franimal007]

MUSIC????? OFF PLEASE

[@Spidious]

Sorry old video. Can't get rid of the music.

[@allanfoster5418]

No way that could fly in 🤔😂😂🤣🤣😅🤣 a million years

[@Spidious]

Not only did it fly. It was able to survive aluminum ball asteroids in space.

[@allanfoster5418]

[@morrisp]

Pls re-post with no music, tks.

[@Spidious]

Wish I could. But don't know how. I posted this a long time ago.

i mean fsx

[@grueha]

Ah, gotta lose the exhaust plumes dude. This thing didn't run on fossil fuels.

[@skip741x3]

Late comment but same feeling... rocket jets on the jupiter are Not how that thing flies... its an antigravity craft

[@johnmoran7996]

Great job,lose the soundtrack.too repeatious.

[@donovanbryan5000]

Oh the pain the pain. That is the weakest ship I've seen. Almost crashed 10 sec after liftoff. Add in the music over and over. I used to like the theme song. But after this video I'm sick of it

[@Spidious]

@@donovanbryan5000 sorry to disappoint you. This video was made a long time ago. Basically on very poor editing software. I agree with the music. But I didn't have a choice on the length of it. And no I didn't almost crash shortly after take off. I was skimming about 30' above the surface.

[@MarkFFHH]

A moon hoax believer??? I didn't think there were any of you left still. Even the makers of those hilarious Books and Docuemtaries never believed in the Moon Hoax. What they did believe is that that there are enough schmucks out there like yourself that would fall for such BS....they are laughing all the way to the bank.....PT Barnum was right.
