  • Its ice

  • That America was able to pull this off in 1969 still blows my mind. Oh and I watched it on TV at 9 years old.

  • @Ionizap me too dude they was at war at the time,, when i watch judge judy i just can,t believe they did it

  • What are those chips falling off the rocket?

  • @toxboxic Thats ice dude

  • @toxboxic

    Umm Ice?

  • the falling ice is beautiful

  • whats the white stuff falling off the rocket. paint?

  • @Ihdc1 Ice

  • @Ihdc1 Ice. The whole outside of the rocket formed ice all over it due to the fact that the fuels were kept very cold, causing the ice to form on the external surfaces of the rocket.

  • I put this to some cool music...

    youtube.com/watch?v=iBHA4CCjWV­U

  • This video needs some epic music.

  • @simoncpu Here you go. I heard this song on the radio today and thought it would be good for something. Then I came across this video. Like peanut butter and chocolate. youtube.com/watch?v=iBHA4CCjWV­U

  • Comment removed

  • OMG, but that's pretty to watch! Reminds me of a day when Americans had a pair and knew how to swing 'em.

  • Saturn V doesn't lift off, it pushes the Earth backwards

  • 10 time more expensive than the space shuttle

  • @Awesome2482, Actually, after development and tooling costs were complete, if they had kept the booster in production, this would have been MUCH CHEAPER than the Space Shuttle.

    For instance, it would have take only about 5 Saturn V launches to heft the entire ISS into orbit, and each section could have been much bigger than what they have up there now.

    Shuttle is "reusable" but major portions of it must be re-built before each launch. It's horrendously more expensive than it was planned to be.

  • what a mighty rocket,long live apollo

  • I watched every Apollo mission launch there was when I was growing up, and it still makes my spine tingle thinking there are three guys sitting at the top of that thing in a capsule no bigger than a VW Beetle. 8-)

  • Да это полная хуйня! Русские лучше!

  • @Zukalt1 LOL....nope.....with all respect for the Russian space-program....this one is the most awesome rocket ever built......hands down. And for the record, I'm not a USA-fan.

  • @Zukalt1 И все же, русские никогда не делали это на Луну. Хм, интересно, чей ракеты были лучше?

  • @johnnypowell859 Лучшие ракеты - от русских. Ваш Спейс Шаттл больше не летает, а наш "Союз" до сих пор летает.

  • @Zukalt1 -- Our space shuttle should never have been built in the first place. It was horrendously more expensive than it was predicted to be.

    If we were actually serious about space, we should have kept the Saturn V in production. It could have hefted the entire ISS into orbit with 4 or 5 launches.

    But we (our government) are too stupid and our projects are driven too much by politics and getting money for re-election.

  • @prosperomage Такая же проблема и у нас в России. Наш Путин и Медведев разрушают Россию. Все наши политики глупы.

  • @Zukalt1 Мы молимся за Россию ;)

  • @prosperomage

    shuttle is cool ,it was not shuttle fault but budget problem,i am not from USA but i am sad to see that NASA year budget is like a week budget of military.NASA is the best and most positive USA brand and people in USA dont understand that.

  • 111 meters tall.........powered by the most powerfull engines ever......that thing is simply terrifying........

  • WALT DISNEY BULLSHIT

  • The peak of human civilization.

  • HONKY!!!!!!! INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!

  • I'm not usually a fan of a transient,fault-ridden &predatory species like homo sapiens.However, this footage records a stunning achievement.

  • Moon conspiracy theorists need to punched by Buzz Aldrin. LOL

  • Happy Hoax anniversary !

  • Why do people think the moon landing was fake in my opinion it's like saying we Faked Osama Bin Laden's death or 9/11 was all done by the Government. Do you part and research it, and please don't go to some Hoax website.

  • Wow' technology!

  • The American writer Robert KG Temple says that there is now no one alive who actually knows how to fire the engines!

  • @krelllabs Hoooey. NASA documents their processes with an insane level of detail.

  • @hekidanjo You miss the point. There are documents for all kinds of procedures - the question is how many people KNOW the material and can do the procedure. Scientific and engineering know-how get lost all too easily.

  • Shit is awesome

  • fucking beautiful.

  • That's what separates us from the red chinks...and all dem other losers!!

  • @KeithP357 That only the United States and Russia had (and still have) the resources to even attempt this endeavor is primarily a matter of chance and history. We're all human beings, and Apollo, Soyuz, the Space Shuttle, the ISS all belong to everyone who wishes humanity well. The sooner we get away from the "us vs. them" mentality, the sooner we can move on to even grander things—as a species.

  • 2:11 EPIC

  • At 2:44 onwards, a stunning sight of pure power, pure horsepower, pure thrust.

  • The greatest achievement of America was the fact they put the word "HOAX"next to the name "Moon" in all the encyclopedias and dictionaries.

  • Graham1786 You are so right dude. 9/11 was a government conspirisy too. Elvis is living with Marylin Monroe on a secret island. Moon landings were so fake and JFK was hit by ..... Well we all know the answer to that one. IMF when will people wake up to the truth? It's a mad world A MAD WORLD!!!!!! No one really talks about the aliens in New Mexico ,,,,, another cover up. Just one question Graham,,, are you on the same medication as the rest of us fools?

  • on what basis the U.S. government ukryvalo member of a criminal organization CC

  • Werner von Braun, the father of the American Space Program Since 1933 Werner von Braun wore a black form of the 4 th Cavalry Squadron 6 th Regiment SS.24 December 1944, Hitler awarded the Werner von Braun's "Knight's Cross with Swords"

  • awesome peace of filming,,have watched it several times now

  • Germans you just cant stay mad at them.

  • Great vid...shame they had to fake the moon landings

  • what a beautiful sound...

  • SCIENCE!!!

  • Like Id want a shirt....

  • AMAZING what man can do!!!!!! People ask why Niel Armstrong is so humble and meek about what he did,, seeing this, he knows it was not just him but thousands that put him on the MOON.

  • My Dad was the contractor for the Saturn V engines - he was a Col. in the Air Force...pretty cool growing up with the space program.

  • Finally, a video decent audio on the 1st stage.

  • 10 people are mad russians because they didn't get to the moon before us!

  • @GhostFilms2010 The entire human race got to the moon*

  • cant believe this is more then 40 years ago already...

  • Murderous

  • @1:48

  • AMAZING !

  • 9 communists watched this movie

  • 9 communists watched this movie

  • 190,000,000 Horse power. For you Coors Light drinkers thats over 20,000,000 NASCARs running all out

  • @sickofm23 Are u sure that the result is right? 190M / X = 20M => X = 9.5 ... I bet that NASCAR car has more than 9.5hp ;)

  • mankind #WINNING .....

  • This looks like it was more than a little influenced by the rocket launch sequence from For All Mankind (wHccHMHVomo). Great film.

  • A tribute to American engineering, made in USA. Goddard likely would have been impressed, recall that it was the American Goddard who made the world's first successful liquid-fueled rocket. The location It is at 20 Upland Street, Auburn, Massachusetts. It was Goddards efforts that were later further developed by the likes of Von Braun, which were later fully developed by NASA. Goddard couldn't get USA interested in rockets, the Nazis did, that's history odd as it is.

  • Just curious, are those icicles falling? Maybe perhaps it comes from loading the cryogenic fuel?

  • @gradenko23 It's build up ice that come from the air's humidity.

  • @Alexvideoclip Yea but he was saying where did the ice come from... it's from cryogenic fuel.

  • Why can't we explore and have Passion for discovery anymore? So what if its not practical I would be proud to live during these flights. I hope my generation will revisit this inspiration.

  • @Roflzmahwoflz As a kid I lived through and watched Gemini flights and Apollo. When the flights went up school stopped. We went to other class rooms to watch. Schools only had a couple Tvs back then. America was proud of what we did.I think one of the greatest quotes of all times was JFK ." America chooses to go to the moon not because its easy,America chooses to go to the moon because it's hard." Everyone wants it easy today. We could never get there again.

  • does anyone else get chills when "USA" goes up the screen at 2:11?

  • The most powerful engine ever. About 190 MILLION horsepower. About 40 years later it's still the most powerful engine.

  • @michaeljyu - Actually, the most powerful engine goes to the Russian RD-170, but only barely. The F-1 produces 1,740,134 lbf, while the RD-170 produces 1,773,000 lbf. The F-1, however, did it with a single combustion chamber, while the Russians used 4. They mastered multi-chambered engines back in the 50's, and with the issues we had getting combustion stability with the F-1, no surprise they by-passed it with the smaller chamber cluster.

  • @michaeljyu the most powerful KNOWN human built engine; surely there are other more powerful thrust machines out there.

  • @michaeljyu

    N1 was even more powerful, although it hadn't managed to reach space...

  • @michaeljyu 190 million horsepower... so american

  • @jordododo And a bit German :)

  • @michaeljyu and the most ineffiecient

  • Chuck Norris ran home and cried 0:13

  • One word: Badass!

  • the damn thing wont win in a drag race, that's for sure! But, it sure will outrun anything during the journey to the outer hemispheres!

  • to bulletbikeflame. it's definitely the Saturn 5, the 4 at 0.25 of this video is number 4 ground securing arm. take a look at 0.21, that is number 1 ground securing arm.

  • James May in his documentary sad that the Saturn V rocket is the most complicated thing man has ever built. Is it?

  • all very well, but actually was the saturn 4 launch. look at 0:25

  • @BulletBikeFlameFlyer The rocket wasn't named the Saturn V because it came fifth in a sequence of Saturn I, Saturn II, Saturn III. The Silverstein considered three classes of configurations for the rocket, designated Saturn A, Saturn B, and Saturn C, and individual configurations were then numbered Saturn C-1, Saturn C-2, Saturn C-3. The Saturn V was originally Saturn C-5. So there is a design that, if it had been used, would have been called Saturn IV, but it was never built and launched.

  • What an AWESOME video...

  • american muscle machine, made by german ingenuity.

  • Amazing what man can achieve when he allows himself to think freely.

  • Heavy Metal Thunder

  • MICROWAVELATCH

    MICROWAVELATCH

    

  • I went from a 75lb computer screen to a 23" lcd...first thing that popped into my mind. LOVE THIS VIDEO, public and kids need to be shown these things.

  • So to all the moon landing hoax morons out there... You're saying that the Apollo 13 explosion, aborted mission and year plus delay was an orchestrated failure designed to give the program a taste of can't-win-em-all authenticity? Was Apollo 8 a hoax too? Maybe we've never even put anything into orbit!! Can you prove we ever have? Sure the rocket went into the sky, but once you lost sight of it, maybe it just fell back into the ocean a few miles away. Don't let skepticism make you a fool.

  • @nonsuchfabio so, what makes you think they DIDNT land on the moon? what makes you think that humans arent capable of surviving a trip to the moon while scientists have already discovered numerous galaxy Trillions of lightyears away,... i think landing on the moon is a piece of cake by now...

  • @weetnietgeen I think you need to read my post again. Anyone who thinks we DIDNT land on the moon 6 times during the Apollo program is a moron. These 'skeptics' have inane explanations for why they think we didn't, but if you turn the tables on them, they admit that they can't substantiate what they believe any better than anyone else, or resort to ad hominem attacks or circular reasoning..

  • @nonsuchfabio right, sorry :) why not send them on a one way shuttle trip? that'll solve the problem wouldnt it?

  • @nonsuchfabio I have heard it seriously argued that Stanley Kubrick left the project due to creative differences with NASA over his Apollo 13 script, which featured a dramatic oxygen tank rupture requiring the mission to be aborted, an idea NASA ultimately decided to use.

  • American muscle machine. Superb.

  • There must be a way less expensive to go to the space.

  • @doormagic FEDEX

  • @MrSokrat2010 and yet.....how did NASA keep the thousands of mouths shut to perpetrate the hoax, let alone the astronauts that went to the moon? You just want to provoke a fight.

  • interesting how the remains of the "hoax" are clearly visible using earth based telescopes......how did all those lunar rovers get on the moon!!!!!

  • absolutely incredible!!!!...... the most powerful rocket engines ever made the rocketdyne F1 engine, each engine developing 1.5 million pounds of thrust so 7.5 million pounds of thrust total, which is staggering when you compare that to a boeing 747 engine at full power of 58,000 pounds of thrust.

  • @nesokretep

    I see it now. Thanks.

  • Uh. Everything about the moon landing convinces me that it really happened BESIDES.

    How did such a small module reach escape velocity off the moon?

    Btw, amazing rocket, just so much energy pouring out of there, I cant take it. :P

  • @johhnysenor -- Orbital velocity of the moon is only 4000 miles per hour. The ascent stage of the lunar module was about 10,000 pounds mass. About half of that was fuel. But that is only about 1,700 pounds of weight on the moon. The rocket had a thrust of 3,500 pounds. At an acclleration of about 1/3g (1/3 of the force you feel sitting in your chair on Earth) it would have taken only about 9 minutes of burning its rocket motor to get up to the 4,000 mph orbital velocity.

  • SOOO MUCHHH THRUST!!!!

  • I am proud, as a human, for this technological marvel.

    Sic itur ad astra.

  • Truly a remarkable achievement. Whatever the initial motives for doing it, the exploration of the moon (and space in general) is a noble endeavor, and the men and women who made such journeys possible are heroes, each and every one.

  • And all that just because the russians had the same idea of going to the moon first instead of the US. I hope that moonsand had special features..

  • Not true, it was the Nazi's that had the idea of Much aado about Nothing and call it a space program with the name NASA/Nasah the theif to rob the public tax payers metalfrost!

  • @KaOssis your the one who keeps commenting on this video like a person who has OCD

  • Don't use your pathetic Nazi reverse psychology crap on me nyyankees4296, just cause you can't tollerate Common Sense and Logic dosn't give you the right to throw your ental health conditions onto innocent people, I'm not your scapegoat, COMPREHENDI?

  • @KaOssis im 14 im not a nazi

  • So you joined October 2008 when you were 12yr's old and breached Youtube age policy then nyyankees4296..you old git!

  • @KaOssis who cares about youtube age policy???

  • It really is a thing of beauty

  • Beauty is Nefertiti, psalm 50:3 of the Bible, not NASA's ilogical crap, cause only a half brain would call a SFX NASA movie a Beauty  mycatwilatackyou!

  • @KaOssis The SFX are amazing hahaha , way to go Disney

  • imagine this liftoff with

    this flight tonight - nazareth ;)

    that's Awesome

  • spectacular !!!

  • The fucking glory days in the American history.

    I hope there will be some of them again!

  • You Yanks tend to overuse the word 'awesome', but when you get it right you really get it right. That really was A W E S O M E ! ! !

    I never get bored of watching a Saturn V take off. You are and should be proud of doing something truly amazing.

  • well that was fucking incredible :)

    so when are we going to Mars?

  • Fuckin beautiful.

  • Epic!

  • Currently, we dn't have a reason to go past our own orbit. I think that because it is naturally an expensive endeavor, only a relative few people will go into space at any given time. I see space in the future as a separate ecnomy, due to the fact that shipping csts out of our atmsphere will make only cmputer sftware and high precision prducts viable trade items with space colonists. Not long after the first miners or whatever establish self sustaining bases, they'll be flying a new flag.

  • @jag9998 Colonization, baby! That's why the U.S. is flying it's own flag!

  • I wish that all the space programs could just combine resources to build a rocket like this again. One of these beasts could like 3/4 of the ISS and it would be cheaper. :)

  • One giant leap for humans

  • Still an awesome experience to see even after 40 years! I visited the Saturn V at the Kennedy Space Centre for the 1st time last July. On it's side it doesn't look so long and sleek as at lift-off.

  • The greatest technological marval invented.

  • at 2:14 U S A !!!

  • Jk lol

  • Who's chuck Norris?

  • watching thi snever gets old. all of that RAW power!

  • @crucialconflict02 Actually, it's highly controlled and focused power, that's why it worked. And that's really what so amazing.

  • @StereoSpace, your sooo easily duped by a fake movie arn't you!

  • @crucialconflict02THATS SO RIGHT

  • @crucialconflict02 I completely agree. Whenever I get stressed about my classes, I just watch this video and it reminds me how much I want my BME. (Bachlor's in Mech. Engineering)

  • @suomik1988 go for it. best of luck to you.

  • Awesome! Those five F-1 engines in the first stage consume 15 tons of propellents per second (yes, 30,000 lbs. per second), 7 1/2 million pounds of thrust in all.

  • Its the quickest way to toast about 1500 slices of bread all at once,stick them under the big exhaust pipes for a micronanosecond,pull them out,and stick another 1500 under,thats 3000 slices of toast in 2 micronanoseconds....

  • Such a amazing sight ,

    it is the only this that makes me regret not to be a american

    long live NASA

  • I dont actually belive that weve even been to the moon, we did it in 1969, thats the only time ive heard about, i know weve been back after that but if we had the shit technology then, im sure now in 2010 we should be going every year? Sommat fishy going on i think, but dont get me wrong, i love space.

  • @haguey666

    Yeah, well, we decided that funding the war in Afghanistan was more important.

  • @haguey666: What about Apollo 8 in 1968? Or Apollo 10 a few months before Apollo 11? What about Apollo 12, in November of 1969? Then Apollo 13, the only mission in 1970? Then Apollo 14 and 15, in 1971? And finally, Apollo 16 and 17, both in 1972. And if the later missions hadn't been canceled, all the way into 1974 we would've been going to the Moon. In fact, "canceled" is the key word. Apollo Applications would've put bases on the Moon and people on Mars in 1986, but was canceled by Nixon.

  • @Tyrannobeast Yes i know they have been back, but i mean, with this day and age recording equipment why havent we seen a HD moon landing? Why all the blurry and fuzzy videos, we have come a long way since the 60's and 70's. The only explanation is is that we will never know why, so there is no point in people thinking they know the reason why, as if they have inside information from NASA or sommat, you and all the rest know the same as anyone else, jack shit, its a need to know basis, thats that

  • @haguey666: What do you mean? Having HD recording equipment does not mean we have time machines. We can't record the Moon landings in HD because they occurred before HD recording equipment even existed. Plus the TV signals were degraded by the time they traveled 1/4 million miles back to Earth, so even by Apollo 17 a bit of degradation would occur. In any case LRO took pictures of every landing site there is, but I'm sure you discount this because LRO was built and paid for by NASA.

  • @Tyrannobeast Liston there should be a simple explanation, i dont want to hear all of your mumbo jumbo, are you stephen hawkins or sommat? Why are we not going to the moon? we did it 30 yrs ago, we should be going alot more often now. I heard its because the moon is riddled with aliens and we was warned not to go back, with those flashing lights or sommat in 1969.

  • @haguey666: I used perfectly simple English. And as I said, there are millions of Americans who say, "We should spend money down here, not up there." For the politicians to get re-elected, they follow these people, because like it or not they're the majority in the U.S. If the Politicians were to spend large sums of money to get to the Moon quickly, they'd never be re-elected, and re-election is the only goal of any politician.

  • @haguey666: That's the plain and simple answer to why we haven't been to the Moon in almost 40 years, because the people in power won't let it happen.

  • @Tyrannobeast Also.... the video that every person in america saw that night was from a video camera pointed at another tv screen because the video feed was not able to be broadcasted (different format or fps or whatever) anyways. I believe every copy of the moon landing today is from a video recording of a tv camera pointed at a monitor.

  • @haguey666: So what do you want? A commercial spacecraft's photos of the sites? That just might happen with the Google Lunar X Prize. Would that not be good enough? If not, what do you want done? How about you commision a team to take you down to the bottom of the Atlantic to see all the spent Saturn V S-1C stages (although it's unlikely they would be in single pieces after a 40-mile drop). I'm sure you would discount the remains, calling them "planted."

  • @haguey666: I've met several Apollo Astronauts who sour at the mention of Moon hoaxers. Certainly not fear of being "found out," but barely restrained rage that those who know nothing of their epic and dangerous journey would be so quick to discount their most cherished and rare memories. Do a service to these Astronauts and the people who put their life into accomplishing a Human dream that was for so long out of reach by re-examining the evidence with an unbiased mind.

  • @haguey666: Oh, that's right. Can't think of a good answer, it must be a conspiracy.

    Where have they been hiding the HD video of Columbus' landing?

  • @haguey666: Then the Constellation Program, the human Lunar/Martian program that started in 2004. It has many of the goals of the Apollo Applications Program but with far more capable technology and planned a return to the Moon in 2019. Now Obama is trying to have it canceled because "We've been to the Moon." It doesn't matter if we have far better technology, NASA's not going to got to the Moon if the stinking Politicians won't let them. There is absolutely nothing fishy going on but politics.

  • @fverag fuck you, commie.

  • TAKE THAT RUSSIA!

  • 8 people clicked the dislike button. I bet I can name them (includes Obama).

  • @LyriMetacurl Mrs Obama as well

  • want to go to space? we don't fuck around, we PUNCH THE SKY AND TRY TO KILL IT!

  • what is all the falling debris? it looks kind of flaky...
