THANK YOU for leaving the audio in and not replacing it with some stupid music track! Really and truly amazing!
AlTheEngineer I was thinking the same thing, love those sounds
AlTheEngineer That original sound is MY type of "music" :)
I was searching reentry sound ☺️
Absolutely, the sound is the best part!
You really like to be fooled, right, even the rocket on the ground shows the curvature, that is, the effect of the GoPro camera, you irrational people
Thank you for letting us both hear and see what really happens. Much as I love music, there are times when I appreciate its absence.
Thats not music, its resonance
:)
With this video, you just proved to me that the EARTH IS FLAT! Even on earth the image bends 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Curved Earth! 🍷🗿
I love the use of the fisheye lens to over exaggerate the curvature of the Earth !
woowww that sound after touchdown was like in a sci fi movie!!So cool
was about to comment the same thing! very awesome
How come it shows curvature even when it lands?, is that a fish eye lens?
Forget the capsule, I want to ride on the Booster! I'll sign the waiver!
No stupid it's a fisheye lense
@@darroncarter lol you stupid flat earther do you even know what a fisheye lense looks like
@Friday Goood that's called wide angle lense the fisheye lense isn't like that dumbo
Looks like a coach ticket might be better than a first class seat.
@FridayGood ha, if I have to explain why the earth is a sphere in orbit around a star, the conversation is wasted..
LOVE THAT ENGINE SHUT DOWN NOISE! The sound of the turbo pumps spooling down sound like something straight out of science fiction... like something from a space ship that just landed.
You mean more like out of an airport ? Yup 😂
Wow, this is the very first time I've ever heard audio on a spaceflight video. It really gives a much more authentic impression of what it would actually be like to be sitting aboard one of these rockets while it flew. Normally, all these spaceflight videos are silent, and nobody bothers including audio. Thank you, Blue Origin, for raising the bar! :) It may be that "in space, they can't hear you scream" - but to hear the hums, whirs and clicks of the rocket's machinery while it descended into the atmosphere was an all the more enriching experience. Thanks again for this, and I hope you'll give us more such experiences in the future.
+manofsan raising what bar? There's plenty of videos taken from cameras on rockets with audio.
Henji96 You mean re-entering from beyond the atmosphere? I've seen a lot of spaceflight videos, but none like this. If you could point me to some other videos of re-entering space vehicles with audio, I'd love to hear some more of this, because it was really nice - very vivid.
+manofsan Check out the footage of the Shuttle's solid rocket boosters returning to splash down. Great footage and audio.
+manofsan The ship's hull, the sound is transmitted in a vacuum.
+Victor Donich Hi, yes, I understand that - still sounds very pleasantly familiar, similar to the sounds of an airline flight in some ways - the sound of the servo motors moving the flaps, that hissing sound and the slipstream, as well as the turbine noise. The desert landing makes it easy to imagine what it might be like to touch down on Mars. I'd imagine looking out the window to see people in spacesuits on a tarmac, and a truck rolling up to remove cargo.
Thank you for *not* adding music. Thank you thank you.
I enjoyed every second of this video. This man knows how to submit goods.
Love the fish eye lens effect.

When you begin watching this video you think, "There is no way this thing is going to be on the ground in 2 min and 38 seconds."
Exactly. I also admire how fast it gets to the ground. Apparently it already falls very fast through the stratosphere at the beginning of the video, this is why the sky starts turning blue very soon. It continues falling almost until hitting the ground, then it slows down abruptly (I wonder how many G’s it has to withstand at this moment), which would not be possible with humans on board. I also would like to how it prevents rotation and keeps the correct vertical position when falling and how it navigates to the exact landing spot. It reminds me of the Austrian guy who jumped from the stratosphere in 2012 and opened his parachute after about 4 minutes of fall.
Not as spectacular as a SpaceX sea landing, but the closest thing to a 'calm-everday' Star Wars landing ever. Great stuff!
What an adVENTure!
+Mike Maloney Ahhh, shaddapp!!!!
Thanks dad
wow that was utterly amazing
Very cool the camera happened to catch its shadow. :)
The view gets better every flight!
Very cool sound too!
I love the sounds!
Congrats Blue Origin team! Very cool video. Seeing the shadow at the bottom of the decent was awesome.
Great end to end view. Loved it.
I don't think I've ever heard reentry before quite like this
It's hardly reentry
I bloody love science!!! I LOVE IT!
Fakery. The fact you admit love for "science" is proof it's faith and religion for you. Mic Drop.
@@Bruh-ye7dg Dude... he was just jocking...
Notice the paint getting a little burnt on re-entry. So cool!!
What a time in human history to be alive!!!
Guys n gals dont think of this as a competition between Blue Origin and SpaceX, its an industry developing, its beatiful and healthy that multiple different enterprises put monney and research into reusable rocket stages.
you could phrase it as healthy competition
hahahhaah I guess so but they are not really competing since they offer different stuff
no one who knows what they do thinks of it as a competition, since all Blue Origin has done is gone straight up and back down. SpaceX has launched payloads at LEO and landed while reentering the atmosphere at horizontal orbital velocity.
+Rohan Buntval Blue Origin is trying to develop an orbital launch system though. And the F9 first stage does not re-enter at orbital velocity, although it is indeed very fast.
+Rohan Buntval *LEO and GTO as of late =3
I will be impressed with B.O. when they land a re-entry vehicle on "Of Course I still Love you" in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.........
+SlipKnotRicky They're not even close to that tech, but they could still make money. Hell, I'd love a ride, no way I could afford it though.
+SlipKnotRicky I'll be impressed with Space X when they actually REUSE one of those rockets they landed...which is the whole point.
+SlipKnotRicky I'm pretty much impressed with anyone that can vertically land a rocket.
+David Ray Your comment is kind of irrelevant. Landing on the barge is the hard part you know. As far as I know they are waiting on getting the 2 boosters checked out (first landed one will be put infront of SpaceX HQ) and contract negotiations with SES in terms of cost.
+SlipKnotRicky I'll be impressed when they do orbit.
This is the most amazing thing I've ever seen! 🚀🌎
Look at the metal part at the top of the screen, it's amazing to see what the friction of the atmosphere does to it !
That was a very cool straight up and down flight flight!
You can see the bottom of the ring turning golden brown due to the heat... nice.
That descent speed and landing was fucking amazing. I love our space future.
Holy crap that looks so cool.
What a time to be alive!
My hands start to feel cold! But I can't get my arms, back down of sheer excitement.. That was fcukkin awesome!
Wow... Humbling. Amazing what humans are capable of
excellent sound and vision. Love seeing the shadow as it lands.
Beautiful
That's so incredible. It takes my breath away. Well done, Blue Origin.
Amazing!
Wow .... Very Speedy Landing
Fantastic sounds, love the the ever increasing rush of the air as it plunges into the thick atmosphere. You are almost able to imagine that we are witnessing a descent onto an alien world.
This would be awesome either way, but the sounds after touchdown of the machinery spinning down and gasses venting just make this video complete.
if it not a fish eyed lens why is it still curved at the end?
+Van Mccall Get smarter. Then you won't have to post dumb ass questions on YT videos.
*How do you get a baby alien to sleep?* You *Rocket!* :D
+BugSplat haha
why are the lens still curved when you land
+Sugarbunny Look it up. Not hard. Not a mystery.
I'm just wondering why they always curve the lens I want to see how the Earth naturally looks not it all weird looking!
Mark Martin that sounds like an excuse because they could just put 2 cameras there
@@loveapureheart Cause the earth is flat
Where's the Radar Rider music?
The sound you hear is the fuel turbopumps spinning down, as well as the engines going through their cool down cycle unless I'm much mistaken
Would be great to see the telemetry.
nice one
I love that the shadow when landing looks like a virus
Oh that's cool
Increíble¡¡¡ Enhorabuena¡¡
This is fabulous! I love the silence turning into a roar!
I'd love to hear how it sounded like when the thing was launched.
nicely done
Oh Man!!! Did that ring get a little cooked or was that just the lighting? That was Bloody AWESOME!!
Awesome!
Very cool. I'd say the rocket engines came on at the 1:35 mark.
That pilot nailed that landing.
Is this fisheye lens?
Why is it the earth looks as round from the ground as it does from space?
Incredible video. This was gorgeous.
Why hasn't this been watched by more people?
this is great!
Look how the paint browns on the spar at 0:47.... atmospheric abrasion burning it even at suborbital speeds, no wonder the Space-X boosters come back a different color....
You guys ever going to leave the atmosphere?
awsome landing...
Check that heating on the booster ring! Is that from reentry heating or from the rocket exhaust?
+David Vermeir Reentry heating. Pretty sure its designed to be ablative, so thats fine.
+David Vermeir Reentry heating. The rocket doesn't light back up until it's pretty close to the ground (especially on this test flight), and it starts falling awfully fast before it reaches the thicker parts of the atmosphere.
Where is this?
It's a start Top of the screen, you can see it slowly turning brown.
Its amazing how thin the Earths atmosphere really is. Thanks for the video!
Audio is amazing. Thanks!
What a cool video.
cool view, nice landing. keep it up.
At around 0.15 is that a shooting star or a satellite to the right of the screen?
wow! how fast was that!?
Best metal riff eva!
AWESOME ~
Never gets old watching something fly that you made fly...reentry g&c
Awesome! Please make this video in 360°.
Love it.
What shoots up on the right at 0:13? Also any lenses used on the camera?
0:15 - I was thinking "Who's testing a hoover in zero gravity?" then I realised the thing was falling to the ground!
why is the earth still curved at ground level?
The future is here...awesome tech
Wow the earth is so curved. All the way to landing 😂 gmab
very cool, does falcon 9 booster have similar video?
+Leon Guo yeah youtube "grasshopper spacex"
i am interested return to ship landing footage from booster
google it. elon posted it on twitter
Note how the paint on the underside of the ring fin goes brown - I wonder if that's due to re-entry heating or engine exhaust deposits
+Goldie644 I think re-entry. The wind noise and buffeting coincide with the browning and flaking of the paint at abour 0:47 into the clip. The main deceleration burn doesn't seem to happen until much closer to the ground.
OMG Jesus is going to be so pissed I saw the curvature of the Earth
+Cheyne Miller it's a fish eye lens!
+Jay Bird how come none of the other stuff that's right there in the picture looks curved Kama I've seen through fisheye lenses on cameras security cameras and it causes everything to have a weird curve no matter how close or far away
You can tell the window or the lens is bending the image. Look at the ground when it gets closer to landing.
+Cheyne Miller it's a fisheye lens, look at the curved horizon as it lands. You still saw the curvature of the earth when it was in space, just exaggerated a bit.
+Jay Bird moron
Красота! Очень круто!
This was amazing! they should allow people to observe the launches live!
+Sergio Cortés They will? It's going to be manned by paying customers after all.
+Dan Large (BlackBoxRecordings) i know, but they should open the possibility of livestream now (as SpaceX) and also allow paying visitors, that way they can grow future visitors
It would definitely be cool. I guess these are kinda like SpaceX's early test runs with Grasshopper and F9R Dev which weren't streamed either. Once they start doing launches with actual payload (ie, people) perhaps they'll televise them.
WOW SO COOOL
Blue Origin was able to launch their rocket to this height after several successful launches, and did not put a person or animal onboard, Why? Its been four years already.
Great capture of the shadow.
Talk about a steep approach!!
Why didn't it burn on reentry? Not enough speed?
It only went up around 62 miles. This isn't anywhere near enough height or speed to burn up. Spacex's booster went up 128 miles, and even it only experiences minimal heating from re-entry.
Cool fisheye lens.
Just imagine if they also sold seats on the booster for the return, not just the capsule :)
+AirCommandRockets that's all its going to be for, tourism
+AirCommandRockets Water powered first stage landing... There's a challenge for you!
+James Torrey Not on the booster as he is proposing.
+Dustin Penner I have been browsing SpaceX too much... Old habit
whats the deal with all the sounds after the booster shuts off ?
+mini beep why wouldn't there be sounds? it's a massive engine with a lot of things going on not to mention it's probably super hot cooking the air around it
FUUUCCK! You guys sure know how to make a bloody good rocket video. Just loved how it turned to show the shadow on landing. Everyone of my wishes answered for this. Thanks.
where are the stars?
Why are all cameras that are used for space, fish eye lens's?
a wider field of view to better catch the curvature of the earth
Bullshit, the same curve can be seen when the rocket is back on the ground.
You do realize not all photos and video of space uses a fish eye lens, right? It's popular, but there is plenty of other footage without fisheye
You do realize that a simple wide angle, or fish eye lens, cannot and will not optically bend a flat plane into a spherical object, right?
