Im pretty sure my calculator has more commputing power than the first rocket to the moon...

[goraidersgogogo]

it's not, but to the untrained eye, it really sells a product

[appzwizzard]

It really isn't that hard to go to the moon, I don't know why the lay people think we didn't. Anyways, I remember before I got my degree, all I wanted to do was go into space, it was so cool! Then five years of being jaded getting my aerospace engineering degree and here I am, I hate rarefied gas dynamics, and I hate orbital mechanics....

Someone should make a parody of this. Instead of launching it explodes XD.

@jtfreed IT DID!

THIS IS THE BIGEST WASTE OF TIME EVER!!!

To any non techee who is fascinated, congrats. But in all honesty it doesnt take much computing power to monitor multiple things now days and to send a simple command. It all is made so simple now especially with all the advancements of prgramming. Lets see them send the rocket up with a comp running osx tiger or windows 98, or hell send the damn thing up with a modded psp, now thats something to dance about. lmao

You are a fucking idiot.

LEO (Low Earth Orbit) is only 1% of the way to the moon.

The Van Allen Belt's radiation destroys electronics. Do you really thing we went to the moon 41 years ago and never went back?

With our new technology we would have a base there by now.

Did you know the temperature on the moon is 253F in the day and -243F at night?

HTF is a '69 spacesuit gonna protect you in that? AMERICA'S BIGGEST LIE!

True, if you look on other videos, they let novices use a motor that normally takes years to be allowed to use and only a month to design and build it, bad idea.
