Titan rocket crashes

[soberek]

NASA - re-defining the meaning of "firework".

[HaraldMustafah]

0:49, hits max-q and bam, just falls apart

[jorgetechful]

imagine a failure in an Orion nuclear buster!!!!!!!

[jorgetechful]

rocket science is hard, imagine the lost of money, resources, I could buy a nice house with one of those, but "the quest of science must go on"

[MrChubbymeat]

how did u get footage of the second one?

[ti994apc]

Titan actually had a real winner with Titan II, perhaps the most reliable system ever made. It was when SRB's were added was its real downfall with Titan III and Titan IV.

[santi0057]

0:03 super explosion

[S3ANLFC]

that rocket is poo

[stellaruniversexmpls]

no one died due to that fact they were all unmanned

[boeing747fany]

Titan rocket crashes. And again. For a third time. And yet again.

[Sku11Hax]

0:05 lol

"So you're positive everything's checked and fine?"

"Yes sir ready for launch!"

"Allright, begin the countdown!"

"10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 LAUNCH"

"And there she-"

*Distant Yell*: HAHA FAIL

[rickcain2320]

That must have been a mess. Titan uses very poisonous rocket fuel

[artwleb]

@rickcain2320 Not the Titan 1 you see here.............

[SSVcaptain]

at 0:50, the rocket decided it didnt feel like going to space anymore.

[sleepingeye]

Looks like some major miscalculation

[tin85killxmandi]

did somebody die???

[gsrocks71321]

r there guys in dem?? cuz i dont want to go in 1 of those.XD

[danschaoticmind]

@gsrocks71321 No, Titan rockets were used up until 1967 for the Gemini launches. However, since Project Apollo, they've only ever carried Payloads to orbit. The Titan series is now phased out (As of 2005). Most American payloads are sent up on either Delta or Atlas Family rockets. Right now Lockheed martin IS looking at plans to develop a capsule that can go up using a delta (Which has a high payload to orbit ratio). but thats a ways off still.

[artwleb]

@danschaoticmind last Gemini launch was Nov. 1966

[danschaoticmind]

@artwleb Read again. I said until 1967. Until means that They were used up to the start of that time (This is semantics mind you) However, the root argument I made was that titans were used post gemini but were phased out as of 2005.

[artwleb]

@danschaoticmind Understood. I stand corrected on the semantics.

[bubblinbrownsugar616]

OH SHIT!!! Can you imagine watching that explosion in 3D?! It's not in 3D and I backed away from my computer screen!! WOW!!

[Orion688]

Must be so much more depressing disintegrating half way through the launch than on the launchpad.

[xmaster720]

somebody's playing with Paul Bunyan's fireworks that read "made in china"

[7249xxl]

made in china

[mikeshepherd]

That will buff out.

[claymanluca]

I wonder who survivors are? i know one,,, Chuck Norris for sure, i was probably his own burp that made the rocket blow up!!!

[bigbrowncheifbottom]

someone just got fired...

[wow1022]

4 3 2 1 fail

[gamekiiid]

made in usa??

[rhn94]

millions of dollars blown up .. whooopsie ! ..

[redtrek524]

Haha the 1st one looks like they installed the engines backwards lol.

[MrMig112]

WOW the biggest firework i ever seen!

[kennethHaugan]

Space rockets is like ladies.

extremely complicated fascinating and expensive.

And if you do one small thing wrong she explode lol

[canals22]

unsymetric demithilhydrazine..?

[amazingagain]

the second one was manned

[gordongate]

@amazingagain By whom?

[DCaussie]

@amazingagain the second one wasnt manned. none of them were.

[amazingagain]

@DCaussie what makes you think that?

[DCaussie]

@amazingagain there were no people ever killed or injured in titan rockets. the only ever death in american rocketry in launch was that of the space shuttle challenger in 1986.

[amazingagain]

@DCaussie please read Space_accidents_and_incidents on wikipedia for more info , there were definitely deaths recently , the most recent 2007

[DCaussie]

@amazingagain youre quoting wikipedia as a source? good one.

there have only been 2 missions resulting in fatality in the history of american rocketry (the nation that exclusively used the titan). Challenger: 1986. and Columbia: 2002. both of these were space shuttle accidents.

People may or may not have been killed on launch pads associated with titan rocket launches, but no MANNED titan rocket has EVER blown up. 2007 death? No there wasnt, not in manned rocket launches.

[danschaoticmind]

@DCaussie Well seeing as how we haven't used a titan as a launch vehicle since 1967 (End of Gemini) It's not hard to see why. Now granted, even then the Titan had an 80% success rate, it would do you well to keep in mind the last time a Titan rocket was used for Manned Space flight.

[drhender71]

@danschaoticmind The Titan was used from 1955 to 1987. Get your facts right. My father worked on Titan launches in the 70's and 80's at Vandenberg AFB in California. I believe the video clip that begins at 1:00 is the explosion that he witnessed in April of 1986. That was a Titan 34D

[danschaoticmind]

@drhender71 Check yourself. I said it rather explicitly that they were not used for MANNED launch. I made no reference to when the Titan rocket family ended service. However, I feel you should check your own facts there. From the Air force Space and missile museum Cape Canaveral: Titan was a family of U.S. expendable rockets used between 1959 and 2005. You can also double check those references from the Air force Unclass archives.

[monkeyman1140]

Titan's a very dirty rocket because it uses toxic fuels, so when it blows up there's a major mess left behind.

[artwleb]

Being first is a historical footnote only. Missiles and spaceflight was an evolving new technology for both USR and US. Each side had their own approach and both had failures.

[Julian24151]

Doesn't matter if the soviets showed the "good" and "bad" they were the first to send a sattelite, animal, and a human into space, they were the first to space walk, the only thing we ever beat them in was the moon.

[domthecertain]

@Julian24151

And the Cold War itself.

[rub6]

Well it is the first ones/

[buzznandes]

These rockets were suposed to carry nukes...

[C0ckTa1LPRIX]

Are people in those?? If they are there fucked

[irish89055]

Think of the sucess of the Atlas program when they got the glitiches ironed out, it ran for 50 years, sure, there were still failures but a high reliability, same for the delta and titan programs..

[irish89055]

unlike the Soviets, we let everyone see the good and the bad...

[Spockkker]

@irish89055

The US had way more failed launches than the Soviet Union

[artwleb]

@Spockkker

You need to study the Soviet lunar, Venus and Mars efforts to understand the USSR

had plenty of failures.

[predatortheme]

@irish89055

yeah.... soviet union had more rocket fails

but you cant know, they never showed it to anyone... ther was a explosion once it was so hard

the concrete floor melt down and the hundreds of engineers there melt down and glued on the 3000 degree hot floor and everywhere was fire and dead people

they fucking hidden that explosion......

[bangtwister]

We have a major malfunction

[YeaThatsWhatSheSaid]

at first it was like *sssssccccchhhh* then it was like *boooom*

[SniprWoW]

the last one (Fail)

[shoa31]

success is not without failures...

[Ryzs72]

goodbye money

[kel1981]

NO SMOKING

[densityduckk]

Bad day at the rocket factory.

[Dakamum]

Hell yeah, engineering disaster.

[PKarklouse]

i thought i saw leak at the beginning before the explosion!!

[lastpokemon]

america makes rockets like a girl. even iran makes better rockets. for rocket shit go to russia

[redsword98]

lol idiot

[se7vn]

Just don't go to russia looking for any good nuclear power plants ;-)

[lastpokemon]

yeah they make nuclear reactors like girls..

[fortitude3030]

@lastpokemon And russia crashed how many rockets, and keeps crashing them?...

[heound]

Well? Whos been to the moon in a saturn 5?

Russia was just messing around with a N1!

USA Space shuttle and ISS has 140-138 mission completion. BTW, what country has the most private companies, Satellites, Rockets, AFB's, and (Planned) Spaceplane liftoff zones?

[heound]

0:04 what rocket is it?

[artwleb]

Titan I December 1959. Destruct charge relays vibrated closed and created the structure failure which allowed the whole missile to collapse into the exhaust duct.

[McWgogs]

They mounted the engines upside down on the first one.

[B3aud3l]

is this fake? It looks like

[amplad]

looks like fake?.......

[lastpokemon]

@amplad yeah and your mum is fake did you realise that yet?

[TprDLaz]

lol @ 1:05 it just casually blows up. haha

[dvdferless]

NO  .....BUD Light

[kyotoair]

1:19 EAGLE!

[IT1997139]

that rocket dun even have enought thrust to blast off and they fired so many of them?

[kimberleemulvey]

1:22. HOLY SHIT.

[DrDoom343]

Holy shit, when rockets fail, they fail pretty hard.

[Ascensiam]

Du bist gefucked und kaput

[outback1054]

therefore now are

[gabrielsff]

1:20

fail.

[tintin27udec]

No one died

[Leny1777]

How many people died?

[mV33rs]

makes me think of the early v2

[MrHulaish]

it looks like fireworks to me

[silversoftCEO]

Well at least one of them went well enough to get off the ground BEFORE exploding haha.

[MrHirsch77]

du bist so gefickt wenn man dqa drin sitzt

[iamamenlala]

well, pawned.

[IL2TOBIAS]

silvester

happy new year

[BobbyJEL101]

the second to last one look liked a firework

[juliasthang]

i will bet you it is sooo fake

[cwbtle2]

there goes a few billion dollars of our tax money..

[artwleb]

The last one occurred in August 1959. The "fake" problem is the colorization of the fireball.........

[nnyankees112]

no there all real crashes, i got it from a goverment video on the the Titan rockets

[LachlanRFC]

Wow america sucks

[mingebag94]

the last one looks fake...is it?

[dost653]

hmm... i think the explosion is a fake.

[NYCsPLAYA]

Made in China

[loerider3261]

Man that would be awesome. Thanks.

[loerider3261]

What is your affiliation with th base? Do you have video of just the 34D blast? It was a life changer for sure, and all I have is one picture. Thanks

[artwleb]

I have no affiliation with VAFB, I have an old VHS tape titled

Titan 34D-9 Accident Report - lots of solid motor films and views of the 8 second flight. Recently on NASA Spaceflight several poor images were posted of the damage. I'll try to retrieve them and download PM sent..

[loerider3261]

Ya I thought about that last night when I typed it. I worked 76 launches while working missle ops for the Air Force. I don't recall working the other 34D's, but I do remember the 1st T-4. I was at the same fallback as the 34D and that T-4 had so much reverb that my pany legs were shacking and my skin was shacking. Never felt that much coming off a rocket before. It was awesome. The 34D blow up was really surreal. After we realized what was going on we scambled for our gas mask and started evac.

[loerider3261]

The titan explosion 2nd from the end I was at. I was less then a mile away at the fallback area. Got showered with rocket fuel. Was a surreal event for sure.

[loerider3261]

That Titan was a 34D. That was the last one they launched from Vandenberg AFB.

[artwleb]

There were 2 more T-34D launches from VAFB

10-26-1987

11-6-1988

First T-4A was 3-8-1991

Were you shaken by the T-34D-9 blast?

[CreaturesOfTheDay]

One got hurt

[fliptricker19]

was anyone in there i hope they died

[TheBingojim]

at 0:57 i was shocked

[BLANCOBILL]

i'm pretty sure that was a ATLAS MISSILE that blew up on the pad / I WAS THERE / VANDENBERG AFB, 1962

[batvette]

If you was there you'd be alls burnts upped. But here you is alive and wells. Are you Superman?

[artwleb]

On June 27, 1961 Atlas 27E was destroyed at launch from a coffin at VAFB due to combustion instability. September 9, 1961 an Atlas-Agena was destroyed on the pad due to a cutoff at liftoff. Not sure any on pad failures occurred in 1962.

[BeebeCh1972]

Did the Titan rocket program have the worst success-failure record, or was it some other space program? (On record, by contrast the Space Shuttle has the best record with only two fatal disasters - Challenger on take-off in 1986, and Columbia on reentry - what year?)

[Stoptherobots]

2003

[rizwanarasheed]

"We've had an anomaly."

[JennerKills]

thats crazy!

[Pujc]

I hope thats accidents happend enough far from ppls.

[jemhson]

5,4,3,2,1 here goes a billion

[trainsstuff]

1:20 wee! whoops I forgot somethi(Bang)

[nicko6a]

[omonaija4life]

why do u have to be so lame...""big fat L on your face"? come on, i know u can do better than that.

and PLZ dont let me get started with you.

[cubeforce]

These weren't manned

[omonaija4life]

i dont follow

what do u mean exactly?

[cubeforce]

There were no astronauts in any of these exploding rockets.

[me2tal]

These were all unmanned...

[FSFchannel]

Get out

too many stupid people shitting up youtube with dumb comments.

[dunklermike]

these rockets are no titan from the nasa....in this movie ,the rockets are from a test-sequel by the navy-program in the early 60..called Avanger-program...

[AnthraxByEmail]

i guess the navy should stick to water

[noobtube76543211]

just think all thoes dead people inside that rocket

[qbanricanplaya1]

jesus christ!!!!!!! wen did the first 1 happen

[rampageturke]

1:24 epic super fail

[Breadbug240]

0:06 Epic Fail.

[JustAManInAMask]

I couldn't help but to laugh at the last one. It was just too funny.

[HungryKFC]

Yeah it's the same footage as the first.

[wkr4k8r]

that's what happened to my model rocket the other day

[LordNelson87]

i'll tell you what the problem is....it's too chodey

[hugenoodles]

stupid made-from-china junk :D

[xronisxronis]

4/4!

[zeldachic102]

the last one had something attached to it or either it didn't have enough push on it

[thaitanium12]

Do not buy this firework

[eviscero]

Yea this was quality explosivepr0n

[bloodshot8989]

1:12-1:20 looks like a firework

[kobasica]

titan sucks

[AFNYOAQIS]

Oops i had it in reverse!

[tankedline]

BAHAHAHAHHAHA

[wetwillydude]

rite before the explosion, is that fuel leaking from the hose inputs?

[PrivateMat]

the last 1 looks like its fake but its not =[

[ovcstuff]

it's so fat

[extreem573]

flashy

[darthnemoz]

EPIC EXPLOSION lol

[sbowesuk]

These rockets are like the fat kids at school who sucked at sports..lol

[bestamerica]

this rocket is too big and heavy,,,

need 3 engines,,,

need 4 fins

[lamarmitedu59]

magnifique!!!

[TruAgape123]

Was this an engineering problem or a management problem? Or something else all together?
