TM65 Episode 2 - Static Test af a 65KN Liquid propellant rocket engine.

In English:
This video shows the preparations and the test launch of one of the world's largest amateur-built liquid rocket engines. We present a unique insight into the way we work at Copenhagen Suborbitals before, during, and after a static rocket engine test that took place on May 20, 2012.
We participate in all aspects of the preparations from the construction of the test stand and the safety bunker, welding and mounting of the oxygen and alcohol tanks, mounting of the rocket engine, the launch itself, and the crunching of data collected during the test.
If you want to know more about how the TM65 engine is constructed and works, please watch the video TM65 Episode 1 on Youtube:

Tune in at 20:30 for the actual rocket firing

[Scott Horn]

The dude at 9:32 looks just like Bubbles from "Trailer Park Boys".

[NoiDontWantFries]

They must have put a lot of effort into additionally capturing all this footage of the preparations for it and giving you so much information about it. It doesn't seem very nice to just skip all of it.

[Alex Rhodes]

thank you

[jesperlett]

Watch "Moon Machines saturn v" on here on youtube. You might find it interesting + you'll get your answer.

[Adoniram1986]

19:20 - Wake up!

[Alex Rhodes]

How does the power level compare to say, a commercial nasa style actual rocket engine?

[JeffBilkins]

I hope you guys find a way to stick to nitrogen pressure though, with helium getting more scarce (expensive) every year it'd be a waste to pump it through a rocket.

[JeffBilkins]

Great project. The wooden igniter is a nice detail ;)

[JeffBilkins]

That "Master of Physicts" is probably a bit smarten then Bubbles though :)

[hulago1234]

the Danes are good English speakers...I envy them

[ferchrissakes]

Also a Dane; also noticed it. I wish they'd proofread their stuff better. Their blog posts have more than their fair share of grammatical errors and typos too. And I'm pretty sure Kristian von Bengtson's title in the video is supposed to be "spacecraft lead" and not "lead spacecraft". I know they want to send a man into space, but I doubt they mean that a man will be their spacecraft :-P
