Saturn V Launch w/ Enhanced Sound

[rborden]

The most powerful piece of mobile machinery ever built and launched in the history of the world and mankind.

7.5 million pounds of thrust.
51 million horsepower.
2,230 GALLONS per second of fuel consumption.

Sit back and enjoy the brute force achievement of United States military and aeronautical might and turn the volume up.

Disgusting.

Should be electric!

What an absolute ****ing unit that thing was.

Meanwhile every EV owner saying how their ****** car is faster to 60 like anyone gives a shit.

I got to watch Apollo 11 lift off. We were on the other side of the intercostal water way. I was 14, it was the most awesome display of horsepower I've ever seen.

It's hard to grasp the enormity of the Saturn V until you are up close to it. We went to Huntsville this Spring and they have one outside and one inside suspended in it's stages. You can see it for miles as you're heading into Huntsville.

I can’t even fully grasp the power this thing generates.

There are electric rockets. Take liquid Helium*, run it through a heater and you get a pretty good specific impulse. There were even studies for ground laser systems to heat liquid helium in a rocket nozzle, and they worked pretty good. And the rocket didn't have to carry the weight of the heating mechanism. Basically, you you fire the laser at the nozzle of the rocket as you pump liquid helium into the nozzle. It expands, and exits. What killed it though, at least for heavy lift, is the amount of energy lost in the beam due to the atmosphere.

There were a couple of bomb-propelled rocket designs, too. And plans for at least one nuclear-bomb powered rocket. Look up project Orion.

*Why liquid helium? Light weight, even in liquid form; combined with the largest expansion ratio we know of.

I just checked this out with Google Street View. That must be impressive to see in person!

Check out the planned, fully reusable SpaceX Starship vs Saturn V.

Saw the one at Kennedy. Was a mind blower on enormity alone. Then you start looking at precise parts and it really sinks in.

Have a lot of cool pics but too big to host here and it's all online already anyway. Only really sinks in when you see it in person.

Lol the hate and insecurity on EV cars with some of you guys is hilarious. This is a space machine and your comparing it against a EV car ? It’s ok to like multiple things.

That was an amazing video, and the enhanced sound with the volume up is awesome. Thanks for posting that one.

Hey, I found another one... Yikes

I like the Saturn V as much as anyone, but that was a foley artist's work, not "enhanced sound".

I bet. I loaded up the Huntsville location with the Windows 10 Maps app set to "3D Cities". You can fly over and rotate around the Saturn V. I am sure Google Earth has that also. Going to check that out now.

Google Maps "Globe View" is even better with higher resolution.
