The LEGO Lunar Rover
folding up like origami to fit in a bay of the Lunar Module. I noticed several tools that reproduce the Apollo artifacts I have at work:
1) Apollo 16 Rock Scoop - used for three days on the moon. From Charlie Duke: flic.kr/p/2pc94vD
2) Traverse Gravimeter - gold plated unit used to measure the moon's gravitational field using a precise Vibrating String Accelerometer. More: flic.kr/p/2m4pPaf
3) Lunar Surface Rake - one of the larger hand tools: flic.kr/p/2q9uGYx The scoop, gravimeter and rake were among the tools carried on the rear of the Lunar Rover.
4) Apollo 17 Lunar Rover Maps - a LEGO brick shows the Apollo 17 EVA maps. I have the flown originals: flic.kr/p/2mXxU2s

The Apollo Hand Controllers
Просмотров 738Месяц назад
55 years ago today, the mighty Saturn V roared to life and launched Apollo 11 skyward. Neil Armstrong sat in the left seat with the translational controller T-handle in his left hand and the rotational controller at his right - the control joysticks for the spacecraft. But the left handle has a special function at launch: if catastrophe struck on the pad or during ascent, a counterclockwise cra...

Nike Smoking at BALLS 31
Просмотров 261Месяц назад
My son and I have been flying our fiberglass Nike Smoke for 19 years now in the Black Rock Desert. This time, the motor did something we've never seen before: it roared off the pad with alternating white and black smoke, and then the thrust stopped. It coasted up for a bit, and then the motor kicked in again for a long burn. It was an Aerotech K375 dual thrust motor, with four White Lightning g...
Frankenrocket Test Flight
Просмотров 497Месяц назад
I like to repair and revive my damaged rockets, sometimes to extremes. When one of the three fins in the integrated fin can of my Green Machine snapped off from a rough landing on some railway tracks, it was not obvious how to add a replacement fin. So I took an oversized fin from the remains of my son's custom "Epic" rocket and fiberglassed it above the fin can. I figured that the larger size ...
Big Red Shred - at Mach 2.3

And the rocket’s red glare… bursting in air ♫ ♪ My red fiberglass aluminum rocket disintegrated overhead on a N5800 CStar motor at BALLS 31, thematic for the Fourth of July. At Max Q with 32g of acceleration, the airframe buckled at its midpoint (the avionics bay coupler should have been longer), and the carbon fiber nose cone collapsed soon thereafter (too shallow of a winding angle). This led...

After we gave talks at NASA and Stanford, Charlie dropped by to see the Apollo artifact museum I curate at work. We poured over a 7’-wide pano of him on the lunar surface, posed with the lunar scoop I recently bought from him. We also spoke of the Apollo CM couch behind him. Best line: “It was an exciting time. We didn’t want to come back.” Apollo 16 Lunar Module Pilot Charlie Duke is one of on...

Representing the Estonian Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale, sculptor and installation artist Edith Karlson's exhibition "Hora lupi" opened at the Church of Santa Maria delle Penitenti. . "Hora lupi" - or "Hour of the Wolf" - explores primitive human urges in their banality and solemnity, and questions the possibility of redemption in a world that is never worthy of it. The title of the exhi...

R.I.P. Jon Landau, please spread some love and heartfelt condolences to his family. Avatar: Fire and Ash, Avatar 4 and Avatar 5, which were produced by him prior to his death via cancer, will be released posthumously.
Love it! ❤️
Great work by the Lego team!
Yes, so cool!
How did I not know this exists?! Gotta add to my LEGO collection now haha. Thanks for sharing! Cool photos too.
I can't believe it folds. Lego outdid themselves on this.
Lunar Legos! 🤩
How many hours did it take to assemble?
So cool! Thanks for sharing 😃
Started watching and thought that it was cool, but too bad it won't be able to fold up like the original ...
it does... I will post a new video to show
now do it above north sentinel island
SUPER VIDEO 😂❤😂😂
Bro he always burning
Only 3 comments???
Great hatdware. Minor nit-pick, it was standard for the LMP to launch in the right seat, but for A11, due to training considerations while waiting for Collins to recover from neck surgury, Buzz launched in the center seat
theres no greater love just open your eyes
Super cool!
Still impressed by the amount of work and testing that needed to happen for everything to work.
When I was 8 back in '71, I wrote a letter to "NASA, Houston Texas" asking if they were going to throw away any Apollo capsule control panels after the program was over anyway, could they just send them to me. I wanted to build a play spaceship in my backyard. About six weeks later, the postman delivered a cardboard tube. Inside were three blueprint diagrams of the CSM control panels and a note saying that the the hardware was probably going to museums, but these might help. My Dad glued them to the inside of a washing machine box and I traveled to all the planets and many stars over the next few years.
Very touching. The hardware is borderline irreplaceable, but a copy of those diagrams will be worth much more to a curious and imaginative child than anything it cost to produce.
Thanks for the video and SCE to AUX! 🚀
It would be quite good to go to the moon 😊
Great Videos as always. And a friendly reminder that we can’t wait until you release your 50h audiobook ;)
Great collection. Not advertising my channel but you should watch the video about the NASA radiation meter.
This is like the inside of a Boeing Airplane ( Get it ? nothings changed since 1960 lol )
ha. ha. 😐
Its not like its important enough to be in a museum for everyone to see. "Nope, not for you, so here is a video of it", says the entitled, without having to say a word. Well done buddy! Loving this human greed trait in full bloom, so comforting.
what a complete bell end. These are HIS artifacts that HE bought with HIS money. He has absolutely no obligation to publicly display them, especially to the likes of you. If anyone's ENTITLED here it's obviously you; you're just projecting.
Thankyou for sharing Steve!
Absolutely awesome. Thanks for sharing this.
God, how cool! Thanks Steve
why does your have so much flame?
So cool! When can I fly these things using my Vision Pro???
Legendary producer of Avatar and Titanic Jon Landau, has died at age 63. Thank you Jon - may you rest in peace with the sublime satisfaction of symbolic immortality in your collective works.
Footage that's blurry or taken from so far away you can't see much, and still photographs! The worst aspects of RUclips in one video! Only thing missing is crappy music. Dislike.
Buddy’s trauma got triggered by a rocket video 😭
Someone buying a faster drone tonight? 😂
How come FPV footage from Ukraine is grainy and black & white, while here it's HD?
Several kilometers away and jamming. Less power etc. but they have some high resolution sometimes. Bomb dropping and surveillance
Looks fun. Great piloting skills 🌊
Hard days labor. Try it out! You know sweat, accomplishments? Or you just going to be a child for the rest? #TheEntitled of America! SMDH
Awesome!
N5800? Edit for clarity: I watched 30 seconds, then read the description, it was pretty easy to guess what was happening.
That’s what makes building rockets so cool, the opportunity to test and push the limits of engineering in so many areas simultaneously, all in one package. Where else can you experiment with electronics, radio, chemistry, material science, aerodynamics, and construction techniques all at once, and with fire? lol, nice rocket and cool photos and video 👍😎
Cool seeing the flight control compensating the partial RUD 👍😎🚀🚀

what a unique view of time square. i dont think any of the main public observation decks have a view of time square like that
5 years shipping actually 😂
As someone with only a couple hundred dollars to my name. I always wonder what choices I need to make in life to end up in a house like this one day. You are truly a blessed person to have friends like this. I pray one day I too can make choices that lead me here.
Mine shipped today and I ordered it 2 days ago. Idk why people complain about it taking long
