I actually watched this live! Was awesome seeing it as my first in person rocket launch

Yeah I agree I was on the beach with my wife and kids unreal experience

I was literally stand 3 miles away from this watching this in real time awesome

Nothing like watching and feeling a launch in person. Was able to watch and or feel the launches from the Cape beginning in the 1960's. Redstones were amazing but failures tended to blow out my picture windows. Atlas engines are great to watch in person but as I now live in Boulder, I really appreciate being able to watch via NASA spaceflight.

Yeah! Great Work All!

That was a wild turm from negative perigee. RL10 is powerful. Great launch!

any successful launch advances moves us forward great coverage

it is beautiful

I keep expecting to see a first stage landing because those boys over at SpaceX make it look so easy.

Well done.

Great channel you guys ROCK 💯🚀💖

Woo!

Well it's a good job ULA stocked up with all the RD180s it needs to complete all its missions! There won't be any more of them.

In happier days it was nice to see cooperation like the use of Russian engines in US rockets. So sad to see that era pass.

Lets Get Ready to RUMBLE!!.

👍👍👍👍👍

I noticed that as the rocket approached max Q, the nose cones of the boosters flattened by crumpling inward.

youze guys are great and getting better with every broadcast.

Good luck and good work?

So... the Centaur upper stage is powered by an expander-cycle RL-10. What is that pipe on the right spewing gas that looks like a gas generator exhaust?

From the manual: "...pre -chill of the LH 2 turbopump is accomplished by flushing LH2 through the engine and overboard." I guess that might be it? Edit: Watching it again it keeps going after start-up so maybe something more?

It might be an open expander cycle, which I believe is used to achieve higher performance.

@@Cyborgnik You can get higher thrust but lower Isp. RL-10 has low thrust and very high Isp so I doubt that. Maybe it lets out some hydrogen for roll control?

So many parts being jettisoned into the ocean?

NASA would you do ring Explorer to Saturn with an Atlas 5.

What happened, I didn't see the landing burn part 🤔

OMG SO THATS WHAT IT WAS WHIKE I WAS DRIVING TODAY??😭😭😭

Is anyone other than Spacex working on landing their booster?

@damien @turbofan450 My answer was accurate. I agree that NS is suborbital, but it is still a booster landing. Rocket Lab is working towards Catching boosters, not there yet.

@@damien-nk9ko they care planning to catch it with a helicopter and gently place it on a ship. Neutron is planned to land and in heavy development. Who cares if it lands propulsive so long as it is recovered.

Weather ?? The payload section looks more like a weapon.

How much is the Atlas V really a follow-on to the Atlas launchers derived from the SM-65 ICBM, or is it really just an Russian Energiya with a US flag decal pasted on the side?

@Cyborgnik

I believe it shares almost nothing in common with the old atlas ICBM's. Also the only russian components are the RD-180 engines.

don't know why anyone would even use ULA at this point

Payload integration. The payload is designed to be launch on Atlas V with its launch characteristics (g load, vibrations, vertical integration, payload adapter, fairing size etc) and can't be easily moved to another launcher i.e Falcon 9 without major review and testing

But it doesn’t come back and land
