Hey Destin!! Fantastic video as always. I’m one of Blue Origin’s propulsion test engineers responsible for testing BE4 in that horizontal configuration you and Tory were talking about. I’ve been watching SmarterEveryDay since way back in highschool and I’d say your videos have been a huge inspiration and have had a direct contribution to me being where I am now. I really appreciate you putting in footage of XEEx-BE4’s horizontal stand in Texas-as it made the highschool part of me freak out seeing our test stand in a SED video! All that aside, I’ve been noticing your focus on a lot of aerospace and space videos recently. Would love to chat sometime and maybe explore the possibility of getting you down here to see a BE4 test! 😎

If you compare with Veritasium (no shade to Derek), it's absolutely night and day with how Destin approaches, questions, and probes with certain specific questions that shows he's paying genuine attention. Sorry you probably didn't expect this kind of reply but I had to point out Destin's people skills, they're amazing.

I love massive devices of science like that. The lightening rods and wires look incredible too.

I absolutely love the mutual respect and love for engineering. "Is that inconel?", I'm probably not supposed to tell you... (with a subtle maybe in the voice) "Well i'm an aerospace engineer, and that looks like Inconel" and Tory just laughs knowing he's right but can't actually state it officially. The entire video just makes me think Tory is one of the coolest guys the hang around with and clearly has so much passion for what he does.

We've lost "balance" in the economy when finance (which should legitimately be a means to an end) becomes and end in itself.

I dream of seeing a rocket up close one day, living in Australia I miss all the rocket launches. It made me cry happy tears watching this. Thank you Destin you have been a core part of my life so far.

Destin this was fantastic! Thank you for your ongoing work. I was very excited to hear about how they were using additive manufcacturing for the thruster coolant!

Tory Bruno is a gift to all of aerospace! So grateful you took us on this journey with such and amazing person and rocket. Thanks Destin!

I think the thing I love about this interview, is Tory probably does a lot of interviews with people who don’t have the depth of understanding like you do, Destin. So it took a few minutes for him to warm up, but once you started asking pointed questions and speaking to a common level of technical understanding, you could see his guard let down and he had to almost actively start holding back on how much he said. He wanted to go into all the nitty gritty details, but obviously as CEO (and probably for ITAR reasons as well) couldn’t. Absolutely stunning interview, and as a fellow rocket nerd who used to work for the OTHER big rocket company, I thank you for making us feel like we were part of a conversation between two enthusiasts!

Sounds like you may not have seen the other Tory appearances on SED - you should look 'em up, they're also great. A ULA factory tour and an Atlas launch.

You can hear him start off with "This is a rocket. It will go up in two days. It is red and white. It is 200 feet tall." Pretty soon he transitions into "Yeah, the additive manufacturing is a really transformative process, both in the classic ways of time and cost, but also in the physics and engineering with laminar/turbulent flow. Pretty cool stuff." I love seeing the nerd come out of hiding in his press junket shell.

Destin, that was amazing! Watching you and Tory talk rockets is fantastic. Thank you, and thanks Tory! And thanks Destin’s dad! Great to see you there together.

I wrote to TB a few years back and got a reply, what a great guy

8:10 thats so wholesome

[12:20] "Water is, almost, the best acoustic-" *water droplet lands on lens* "-energy absorbing material you can have." You can't make this stuphup! Many appreciations, Destin, for the Daily smart-gems.

It's awesome you're doing these things with your dad. My dad was also in aerospace (and also the smartest person I know) and after seeing the last big eclipse in 2018 without him, I was planning on seeing the one in 2024 with him, but we lost him in 2021. Don't take anything - or anyone - for granted.

Rocket launches never fail to amaze me. Such power. If I lived in Florida, I'd drive to Kennedy to watch them all.

That was a really cool video! I think the ability of incredibly smart people to explain complex systems to a non expert audience in simple terms without glossing over specific details is a hugely underappreciated skill, and Tory is an expert at that!

I love it when people get into the details of things like this, and especially unimpeded access (to a point) where you can get up close and personal with a rocket on the pad. I'd consider that a once in a lifetime opportunity, but I'd be wanting to speak to Tory about stuff like this a lot more often, because he has the interest, the info and the calm demeanor to keep you interested in the topic. "You worked on James Webb, right? Outstanding." kudos to dad too.

Destin’s dad is so humble with the simple “Yeah” when asked if he worked on JWST. Like, that was one of the greatest feats of human engineering in a long time and he just sees it as “just another day at work.” 😂

This is one of the best up close looks i've ever had of a rocket pre launch. Thanks Destin and Dad

Destin, I am a senior in high school and I lived in Huntsville for a period of my life. I remember spending a week at space camp and seeing a video where you were standing in front of the black plane that goes super-sonic and thinking to myself “wow, someone this smart is just like me, standing next to a fast plane needing out” I remember your previous video with Tori and it was one of my favorite. You recently asked on twitter what we felt about long form content and I mentioned Tori specifically as an example of a long form video that was amazing from start to finish and here is another fabulous video with Tori. Please keep doing what you do Destin, you have helped me maintain not just a passion for space, but importantly a passion for learning. I am now going into my first year as a computer science student and I absolutely have you to thank for wanting to continue learning. Thankyou, Destin. You are an inspiration and I just want you to know that you have impacted my life in a way nobody else has. If you ever struggle to put a video up, remember that you truly make a difference and my life is much better having seen your passion and knowledge.

Tory is just the best. It brings me great joy whenever I see you two interact.

I'm based in Russellville and work in Florence and I can't tell you how cool it is this company is building rockets in Decatur. I love it!

There’s only a handful of people I could listen to all day. Tory is one. Thanks for capturing this wonderful interview.

By the way, after having watched the in-depth video about the Saturn V in Huntsville, I made sure to drive the three hours from Atlanta on a day trip during a recent visit to the States. It was spectacular to see the rocket in person! Thanks, Destin, for the inspiration.

Absolutely love this video!!! I’m studying engineering and recently had to design a rocket engine cooling system for the vulcan rocket engine. It’s amazing to actually see the engine and the people behind the designing of it

Absolutely in awe of the knowledge you guys have. So amazing to have this explained the way it has been.

I'm wrapping up my (third try at my) first year of college now at 40 years old in large part because of the inspiration I get from this channel. Thank you, Destin. Maybe in three or four years I'll be able to land a job at ULA. Here's hoping.

Congrats on reattempting college! It takes a lot of guts to try again. Take it from me with 6 years in for a 4 year ME degree!

Remember the secret to getting that college degree is just getting to the finish line. In the end nobody cares if you had a C- average, or an A. It's the piece of paper on the wall.

@@Wifiisbetterthenethernet thanks. It's probably going to be a total of six years for me too, counting the semesters I took at 18 and now. But I'm a lot more motivated to finish now than when I was a teenager. @AIM54A Yup. C's get Degrees. 🤣🤣🤣 Which is great since I have a job, kids, and my mom to take care of too. Thank the gods for caffeine. I'll sleep when I'm dead.

In three years there will no longer be a ULA, it will have been bought by then (probably by Blue Origin), but you can still get a job working on Vulcan, that rocket has payloads scheduled to launch all the way into the 2030s (mostly Amazon Kuiper internet satellites).

This Tory guy does come across as a very chill cool dude!

I’m happy for you that you were able to experience the tour and the launch. I’m happier for you that you got to share that experience with your father.

I think it is amazing that a youtuber is so close and able to hold a talk on EYELEVEL with one of the biggest rocket manufacturers in the US so we all can get a new view behind the scenes ^^ Destin, I really enjoyed watching your tech talk with Tory Bruno. It was so nerdy and wholesome at the same time. Keep that good work going ;)

Dude this was probably my favourite SED video yet. So awesome to just hear two super smart people talk about super cool stuff! Well done Destin!

One of the important thing I like in your video is that you are humble. You don’t do videos just for the heck of it but truly interested in learning. Nice to see how much you love your dad.

27:21 I love the banter you guys have. So down-to-earth and clearly kindred nerd spirits. It's all over the video but this moment right here is the highlight. And the fact that he made a reference to Destin's past videos about laminar and turbulent flow just shows how much of a standup guy he is making sure he knows about the people he talks to.

So happy for your dad. Your a good son. I can see the love between the two of you. I made his day for sure !!!!

love it when tech-nerds go full nerd on each other and the genuine love for their tech gets them where no script ever would have..the fun is jumping of the screen, love it.

Hey Destin. This was incredible to watch. The video you made a few years ago, touring the Decatur factory with Tory, is what inspired me to apply to ULA. I now work as an engineer at ULA on the Vulcan development team. Your videos make me proud to be an engineer. Thank you for what you do.

This video is amazing Destin! I loved how you’ve opened up ULA a little and I’m so impressed to know how thoroughly Tory understands his product. Very impressive! Thank you too for taking the time to share this special moment with your dad with us as well. I find it super personal but the way you allowed our audience into your lives like that is both beautiful and sad for me: I wish I had a dad that I could have shared things like this with. What an honour for your dad to have you mate. God Bless you brother!! Lastly I’m curious about your confidence implied by the “Vulcan’s gonna persist”. I’m led to believe that the Vulcan just can’t compete from a business standpoint with other reusable vehicles for similar lift classes. What makes you so confident that it will stay around?

Destin, your videos are always amazing. This one especially tugged on my heartstrings with the photo of your dad and seeing how much the two of you look like identical twins. My son and I have that same characteristic, and we are planning our trip for some time this year to see a launch together. Being from Gadsden just down the road from you, I loved growing up so close to Huntsville and Canaveral. It made me feel as though I was truly connected with our space programs. Hopefully, we will be seeing more adventures with you and your dad. Thank you for all that you do. ❤

The fact that your dad is a legend is unreal! The fact that you can go with him to these events is just simply amazing! Amazing video Destin! Love It!

Two smart people geeking out over rocket engines. What a treat!!!

This may be one of my favorite videos you've ever made. No idea why it isn't blowing up more. Tory is awesome. Footage is awesome. Slow mo shots are awesome. Video is just straight awesome.

This level of access through your years of genuine and proper recording of people is out of this world. Peoples trust in you has allowed us access to a place no other company or person (let alone YT channel) has ever had! Destin sweet Jesus protect this man!

The Epcot visit segment really hit home with me. One of my most cherished memories as a child was visiting the Figment ride with my dad and I would love to be able to do this with him and my son today. Thank you so much for sharing that moment.

That final shot of the rocket when it's pierced the clouds and shining light through them from above, that is insanely beautiful

Every time i see a video with Tory, it always strikes me how much of an awesome human being he is.

Destin, I can't thank you enough for what you do. Living vicariously through your lenses with your aerospace engineering background paving the way for your content, and sharing your experiences with your father, is extremely touching to me, and likely many others, who wished for a similar life but just didn't have it in their cards. Selfishly, I ask that you keep getting Smarter Everyday just so we can do the same. Cheers.

Thanks Destin and Denstin's Dad for this story so wonderfully explained. I truly enjoyed listening to Tory! What an amazing person and a privilege to have him tell the story on the design.
