NASA - Methane engine test fire

[SMCrim]

Turn volume to max

[klausitkowola]

Sidewinder9877 posted the same type of comment twice. Looks like he knows why drunk college kids are so wise when it comes to space travel.

[Sidewinder9877]

Interesting. Lighting farts as a means of interplanetary travel. You know some drunk college kid came up with this one! All the astronauts need is a healthy supply of beans and they can fuel the rocket themselves. This is brilliant!

[mambazo5]

Maybe they can harvest Methane from cows :P

[a10fjet]

This is what it looks like after chuck norris eats a jalapeno

[Andriusmn]

looks nice...



[arnavtfi]

[cheeswisz]

[earloftea]

[metalebd]

[Linked89]

[Roof5tone]

007.. We got a situation here!

[BGK4444]

FUCK NASA

[1997CorvetteC5]

waiting... waiting... waiting... HOLY SHIT THAT'S AWESOME

[Sidewinder9877]

hmmm..Methane engine. So NASA is looking into lighting farts as an alternative source of rocket power. Most drunk college guys already knew this though.

[sorc46]

Want.

[maXVolnutt]

This is the tool with which I can and must BURN GOD.

[adamwuk]

If it's so powerful, why didn't it move?

[leeanthonyojeda]

@adamwuk because the camera moved at the same speed as the rocket when the rocket moved the earth.

[adamwuk]

@leeanthonyojeda Good answer man. : )

[OrdinaryInspiration]

@adamwuk If you look closely you can see that the whole rig that the engine is on is actually bolted to a solid slab of concrete. THATS why it did't move.

[kokteng95]

Lol whats with weak burst of gas at the end?

[ArchyFantasies]

That was one of the coolest things ever seen...

[Zpartan117John]

My farts is way cooler

[nikko7895]

At first i was like @_@ "meh"

But then i was like :O "OMFG WTF!?"

[heath780391]

I want that in the back of my car!

[Davesax1965]

"More tea, vicar ? "

[zzzap78]

Need full length clip!

[TheBezzi]

wow! blue laser blazer xD



[tgrobot]

this must smell awesome

[ssopex]

oh fuck ya

[McSpizzy]

What would the temperature be if you were standing 100 feet behind this thing?

[CeeKayz0rz]

Where can I get one!? :D

[circusboy90210]

thrust ??

[windowslovepepsi]

Stubleupon!

[tdames1992]

i wonder if it smells like ass

[UnsignedVoid32]

@tdames1992 Nope, Methane has no odor ;)

[sight92]

@UnsignedVoid32 You'd disagree if you stood by me after McDonald's.

[UnleashTehNoob]

@sight92 it's mainly the hydrogen sulfide (same smell as rotten eggs), not methane.

[Talkingwthstrangers]

I will be impressed when they use that to make a pod racer.

[canislovely]

RIP NASA. :(

[schuylerloers]

@canislovely NASA is alive they are focasing on deep space exploration now. I think they are going to try landing on a trojan asteroid in earths orbit.

[bcarmichael0]

Methane is odorless, what you are used to smelling is sulfides of hydrogen. Flammable yes, but a yellow flame, not blue.

[NeonVars]

WOW!!! thats gotta stink for those who sit there and watch.

[spooky8522]

Yea to bad NASA wont be around

[Epicraptor1]

Sorry, I had beans for breakfest.

[GibsonsForLife]

Too bad we'll never see it used! Had to save all the money for the overseas wars.

[cyphonyx]

When it first lit up, I thought to myself "yeah, that looks about right for burning fart gas"

[SMCrim]

Turn your bass levels way up.

[knowledgeslug]

Can't stop pressing 2

[porkbeast3000]

my farts can do that?

[flyboy92]

It probably smells like shit

[Benoka]

They should sell these engines and market them as "Chuck Norris" Grills.

[webspaceinvader]

geez. the americans can make stuff like this and can't even pay their bills. i'm confused.

[chrisbrl88]

@webspaceinvader Eurotroll is trollin'.

[hockeyplayer168]

@webspaceinvader Although there are countless intelligent and productive Americans, unfortunately, they are not in a position of power.

[webspaceinvader]

@hockeyplayer168 Yeah.. all this stuff with the american economy is getting me down am I'm not even American. I live the other side of the pond but look over there for inspiration. Our world feels duller, colder and scarier without US optimism :( Yeah i know America has its share of greedy, evil people and military f**ktards but it really is a still beacon of hope, and lights up the world.

[AliveoutofSpite]

@webspaceinvader Surely you can't be serious? I live in America (regrettably), and I'm leaving this pit as soon as I am capable.

[PiefaceclownPrdctns]

@AliveoutofSpite

The grass is always greener on the other side

[Vinomadd]

@webspaceinvader Only if you buy into the bullshit.

[wjz10595]

fuck thats awesome!

[GoesToTheGymMan]

[TheMattcs]

How many cows do they have in that thing?!

[TheOverkill13]

[Ammit5]

NASA went to Jared's?

[FoetalOuroboros]

>mfw tags

[FireRunner905]

Chuck Norris' zippo

[mixedNativeGuy]

thats a rather odd/terrifying sound it makes...

[katosjoes]

Haha, at around the 5 second mark I was like "Oh, well that looks pretty neat-HOLYCRAPLOOKATTHATROCKET!­"

[ke4ahr]

I love how it goes from meh to lit, and perfect diamonds in a split second...

[ke4ahr]

I just expect little alien creatures to start immediately dying, or marshmellows to explode.

[RooMalax]

Cracked.com viewers are watching this, all thinking the same thing. "You dont know what you've got till its gone.", as every last person watching this treated each space shuttle launch with yawns, but now its over for manned missions. Even in the 80's when it was treated like a Presidential speech and they pre-empted our Saturday morning cartoons, we were like, "F**k this, lets go ride our bikes"

[davethehostage]

0:05 - IMMA FIRIN' MA LAZOOOOOOOR.

[darkgreentunic]

I thought of Excursion Tunnels from Portal 2.

[valekdmog]

PUT IT ON A RACECAR AND KILL SOME LINGS!

[doggie015]

Who wants to see a test run with that truck's brakes off? Thumbs up if you do

[ErostheEpic]

The Earth rotated 50 MPH faster when that thing lit up.

[BobDole3005]

FUCK THAT IS AWESOME

[Saukkomestari]

[Fear08MX]

[funkophone]

Fuck, science is awesome.

[ikepiggy]

DAMN, I thought the starting part was the test fire...

[koopaatroopa]

Lame lame lame BOOOOOM

[muereteflanders]

[alphamone]

0:06 - HOLY SH*T WHAT THE F**K

[goldenhide]

@Marshillboy Don't EVERY doubt Brockway!

[wallsbleedingin]

Does anyone know how foot pound of thrust this badass mother fucking engine has?

[beaverusiv]

I watched this like 10 times. I know what my new phone notification sound is!

[henrique88t]

I keep pressing 2 and... I didn't know real life could have things like this.

[TheLordoftheCows]

My subwoofer. My floor. EVERYTHING.

[ChibiVaati]

USE HYPER BEAM.

[pianomikey0]

Anybody else say a bad word when the thing lit up?

[Theblueraajaa]

@pianomikey0 Nah. I just said "Fuckin' Shit." No bad words there.

[braves14mn]

@pianomikey0 "Holy $hit!" to be specific

[Meta5917]

@pianomikey0

nope.

[sight92]

WANT.

[XMMxmmXM]

"Oh, hey bro, got a light?"

[NaYarB04]

how did they manage to isolate a Chuck Norris fart?

[AlvoTV]

s'mores anyone?

[Hysheon]

looks like a light saber...

[elbraymundo]

OH... MY GOD.

[bazengao]

[dubsucks]

The engine went Super Saiyan

[k0k090]

Oh man, that thing kicks so much ass.

[roofstones]

My god!

[damstachizz]

Did anyone else think it looked like that engine was strapped to a truck around 0:10?

Because i did. And i decided that would be an EXCELLENT idea.

[acsam12304]

@damstachizz yeha i thought it was a big rig too lol

[rankaratar]

So how exactly do we go about strapping this thing to our backs and flying off into the sunset?

[kilerbeez]

WHAT THE FUCK NASA YOU STOLE MY BONG LIGHTER

[0Blueaura]

[VeSpAdRiVeR]

[Kemusika]

Holy f******* shit o________________o

[Underoathalex12]

[tlages]

0:03 Whats so special?

0:04 WHAT THE FUCK!

[DARRIEEUSS]

I LOVE THAT BLUE FLAME

[zzzap78]

honour/honor, colour/color, odour/odor, british/american...

[JewleBrews]

got a light?

[Proggo]

@JewleBrews NO

[minichaders]

cow's can finally be put to good use!

[Envergure]

Why does the flame divide into segments?

[zcsnow]

@Envergure Those are called "shock diamonds" or "Mach Diamonds." They form when a shock wave of expanding gas bounces around between layers of gas surrounding them. So a less pressurized gas wraps 360 degrees cylidrically around a higher pressurized core gas...Hope that makes sense. If not, Wikipedia

[Digeridude]

That's quite a fart.

[mrfrankincense]

This would be pretty handy for returning from a methane rich planet.

[MrJarbuckle]

doesnt it just smell horrible?

[chaosopher23]

@MrJarbuckle Methane is actually odourless; it's the sulfur compounds in a fart that stink.

[MrJarbuckle]

@chaosopher23 Try learning how to spell if you want to be a smart ass, buddy.

[ryder187mac]

@MrJarbuckle Except that the spelling is right and your attempt at acting smart has failed.

[MrJarbuckle]

@ryder187mac its odorless not odourless, and your attempt at being smart by making fun of me for trying to be smart is very pathetic, did you even check yourself before posting that? its not hard, just pull up a word document and type in odorless, then type in odourless, which one has a zig zag red line under it? huh punk?

[Hempulix]

@MrJarbuckle Odourless is British English, odorless is American English. Therefore both can be correct, depending on where you live/how you speak.

I have no idea why I took my time to reply to this.

[bumbletowne]

@MrJarbuckle Odourless is how they spell it in Britain. Neighbor/neighbour, color/colour, etc...

[MrJarbuckle]

@ryder187mac on further research ive found both forms to be right, odourless is the british form while odorless is american, which is why my american Word spelled it as odorless, so if chaosopher is british then i truly apologize

[chaosopher23]

@MrJarbuckle Apology accepted.

[MrJarbuckle]

@chaosopher23

^thumbs up

[chaosopher23]

@MrJarbuckle I'm on the other side of the pond. Farts are not odourless.  Methane is.

[William21984]

I did not know what to say at the first few seconds. And now I really dont know what to say watching the whole thing. Holy Moly!!! How is the jet stream coming out as Blue Elipses?

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

Duke Nukem lighting a fart.

[valekazogoth]

@ 12 seconds there is a beautiful shot of the exhaust shockwaves

[cocacolaligification]

gimme some burritos and i could fuel that thing for a month...

[kepplerh]

but then the ship will smell like open ass

[SteelChains]

Ass-Gas

[HopelessInLife1990]

With proper editing, this thing could easily be set to the finale of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture.

[pll1993]

sorry... i farted

[PirateMcSandwich]

Is this for once your in space? It really doesn't seem to have the power to even lift itself into orbit

[VidHunter0518]

imagine lighting up your bong/pipe with that shit.

[Tandy2000HD]

Do want real bad

[Nmisling]

My pants are thoroughly soiled.

[StitchMitch36]

I wonder how quick this could roast a marshmallow?

[dangerswap]

Love the bass when this baby ignites.. 0:05
