Artemis-1 Launch Cinematic 4K (FULL VOLUME) No Music (NASA's SLS Rocket)
By popular demand and to celebrate the 1 year anniversary, I've made an Artemis-1 cinematic launch video with no music. Just raw, solid rocket booster power. Using some of the best, slow-motion footage from NASA, combined with carefully edited sound design, I've tried to make the best launch video for rocket purists who just want to feel the power of the Space Launch System.
I recommend listening with high quality speakers or headphones for the full experience. Enjoy!

A Shuttle launch was always very impressive. But this is just as impressive and beautiful. When the SRB’s ignite . Wow.
It was basically a superpowered shuttle launch without the glider.
They don't normally get the microphone levels as right as this. They gave space (really no pun intended) for the person at home to get the fullness of its scale without it overpowering the microphones. I really hope they can achieve this result again for the big rockets. The overwhelming impact it creates leaves a very strong impression on anyone who witnesses it and just for laying down a recording for history it's important.
It's crazy to think that years from now when we have established a fully operational base on the moon and are making preparations for the journey to Mars, we'll come back to videos like this and think about where it all began, reliving each harrowing and thrilling moment and thinking, "Man...what a time to be alive."
It began in the 60's. I was there. We're just catching up.
EVEN THE SONIC BOOMS OF THE RS-25 HYDROLOX ENGINE IGNITIONS ARE IMPRESSIVE ! ! !👍
This is awesome on mobile, but on desktop, it's a whole new experience!!!!! This video kicks ass on desktop!!!! Play it with the volume on loud.
Thank you! I tried to make it the best launch experience possible and I’m glad it came through.
When I was 6 I can still remember getting out of class for the school to watch John Glenn's rocket go up in Fl. I can still see it in my mind. We were all amazed and excited! Look how far we've come.
John glenn to this, imagine kids who saw artemis 1 at 6 would see at your age? mars colony asteroid mining nuclear engines idk exiting stuff for sure
The nicest thing about this launch was that nobody was concerned that a "rapid unscheduled disassembly" would occur at any moment!!
Proven technology from the Shuttle era is extensively utilized in the design and construction of the Artemis rocket. The SR-25 engines are leftover from the discontinued Shuttle mission. The foam insulation on the main fuel tank is the same concept is that on the Shuttle main fuel tank. The solid rocket boosters design are from Shuttle.
You are a cringe boomer from the year 1979 💀💀💀
@@peterresetz1960 In no way is losing two, 2 billion space craft carelessly is ok, especially when ur company barely makes enough because it subsidized by the gov. Just like with the falcon 9, starship will fail to meet the promises Elon has made. Honestly it wouldn't even matter all that much but OUR RETURN TO THE MOON is in jeopardy because of starship. Ironic since Elon stated how in his mind SLS would be holding back our return to the moon.
And it's only flown once with no scheduled launch in the foreseeable future yet Space X launches almost weekly.
@@peterresetz1960 The "proven" technology from the Shuttle was thrown out the window once actual design work started on SLS. 1. RS-25 was heavily redesigned for SLS. Heatshields were replaced with ones that would withstand higher temperatures. Internal plumbing was redone and changed with a modern design to handle higher loads and stresses. Avionics and internal computers were completely replaced with a new design. The only thing that's the same is the nozzle. 2. The foam insulation material is different from the Shuttle one. The corestage uses a different material and is built/welded differently than the Shuttle's external tank. It is designed to handle higher loads. 3. The solid boosters only share the casings from the Shuttle. The motors, nozzle, avionics and insulation are a brand new design.
THOSE ACOUSTIC SOUND WAVES AND RIPPLES DURING RS-25 & SRB IGNITION AND DURING ASCENT ARE INCREDIBLE ! ! ! SOME SERIOUS+INSANE ENERGY BEING UNLEASHED HERE ! ! !
Even though this rocket was born dead, it still amazes me the power it has
Wow, this is gold. Thank you very much for this video and all Artemis I videos. More videos please. Hail Artemis I, hail Artemis Program, hail NASA ❤
This is amazing. A rare treat with just the sounds of the sounds. Chills.
i mean NASA sucks, this costs millions and it's just ONE launch. Imagine them doing this over and over, it's taken them two plus years to even launch one. And it costs nearly a billion dollars per one. Gonna have to hail reusable private companies instead of this garbage government NASA program.
The sound of this launch was epic.
THE IGNITION AND LAUNCH ASCENT IS SO VIOLENT ! ! !👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
THOSE BEAUTIFUL IMAGES OF THE EARTH-MOON SYSTEM, REMINDS ME OF 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY ! ! !
GO ARTEMIS THE HUNTER ! ! ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Finally, launch without music and commentator... just crude sound!
Listen under Headset.. full volume.. 👌 wow
THE ENERGY THAT IS BEING UNLEASHED HERE IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE & MENTAL ! ! !👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
No big deal. Watch a S5 launch. That was a beast.
Starship launches with more than twice the power and its still a prototype. 😂
@DS-lk3tx Staship. LOL. Sounds like a stupid TV show. The Saturn 5 made the ground shake. I was 3 miles away. I felt my bones vibrating. The S5 lifted off slowly. These new tockets take off so fast, like a model rocket!
Шикарное зрелище, невероятный звук!
We need Nasa to be great again
Thanks. This is amazing. A rare treat with just the sounds of the sounds. Chills.
Woah that was so cool! Thanks for taking me on this thrilling ride!
Great edit. Very crisp sound.
Wow! This so amazing! Nice edit!
Can only imagine being there and feeling that power go through your whole body!! 🤙😊😊
Feels like you get shocked I’ve been to the starship launch where you are only 5-6 miles away from the launch pad
@@MrSpacePhoneRepair14 aww lucky what an awesome experience it must have been!!
This baby is impressive! Watching this thing blasting off like a bat of of hell.
Excelent work with rocket and too with this video cut !! Perfect , hope see very fast 2. launch in a day.
Perfect sound to listen while sleeping 😊
Я столько красоты повидал в своей жизни, но настоящей красоты от запуска космического аппарата никогда не видел Это самое лучшее,что я когда-либо видел в своей жизни
Those solid rocket boosters really take thing to another level
its a Russian comment@@awesomemcawesomeshorts9531
Really amazing sound and light of the launch!!
2:20 AT TOP-RIGHT HEADING STRAIGHT FOR THE MOON THAT HAS JUST COME INTO VIEW, A-W-E-S-O-M-E STUFF ! ! !👍
AMAZING STUFF ! ! !👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The base and engine nacelles look so cool with their markings.
Very nice editing right here, sir. Thank you for sharing.
0:49 U L T R A V I O L E N C E ! ! !👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Dude ive known the that ever since i watched The very 1st launch in 1981! I made the reply intensity 😂
REMARKABLE!
Nice video. Greetings from Argentina!
My family and I have see a few rocket launches from Cocoa Beach. Nice touch adding the frogs in the background sound to get the ambiance of the area of Merrit Island!
Thank you for noticing that! I remembered the frogs at night at Merrit can be extremely loud, so I tried to recreate that as best I could.
@DigitalAstronaut You're welcome! We definitely noticed them when we were down there. We have them here in Charleston too. You did an AMAZING job with the whole video!
I have to say this is one of the best videos I have seen on this! I'm glad I was able to be apart of history ! I launched this bad boy from the firing room woo!
Whoa! Tell us more! What was it like and what did you do on the team?
Little bit disappointed the SRB burnout wasn't shown more.
My sound system has 4 subwoofers connected. Whole house shakes. 👍👌😀🚀
Man I hope the moon landing is ultra high def....it will be so epic so all humans can understand the amazing feat and beauty of space travel.
SHEER BRUTE FORCE POWER ! ! ! I LOVE IT ! ! !
The biggest arrow of the goddess
1:18 - 1:25 SLS HOT REFUELING ? ? ? JUST CURIOUS, DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THE SLS IS BEING REFUELLED WHILE THE RS-25 ENGINES ARE UP AND RUNNING ON THE LAUNCH PAD WITH THE GROUND SUPPORT UMBILICAL'S STILL CONNECTED UNTIL SOLID ROCKET BOOSTER IGNITION AND LIFT-OFF ? ? ?🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
I saw it like two days before it launched, but I wasn’t there for the launch
INCREDIBLE CINEMATOGRAPHY ! ! !👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
W-O-W ! ! ! WHAT A SPECTACLE ! ! !
Amazing. However, I still have to give it to the Saturn V. The 5-pack of Rocketdyne F-1 engines can't be beat for sheer brute strength. The F-1 still, to this day, stands as the most powerful single chamber rocket motor ever produced.
Still the BEST cinematic Launch is in Armageddon movie. ;)
Call me old school but I miss the “twang.”
R u sure that you are spelling that name correctly or possibly meant something else beginning with the letter 'T' lmfao
@@GooletakesItUpItArse I am spelling it correctly. 😀 The Space Shuttle's main engines were offset from the center of mass at launch due to the addition of the giant orange fuel tank and solid rocket boosters attached to the belly of the orbiter. That offset thrust right before liftoff would push the entire launch vehicle over to the side and they would wait for it to swing back into a more vertical position before they would light the SRBs and blow the bolts that held everything down. This lean to the side and back was nicknamed the "twang."
@bluewaterboof82 your spelling is bang on! That's my issue concerning Google LLC which owns KZhead. There is also now easily available via KZhead, a full documentary from the two crew. Filmed both astronauts' reactions to the then-brand-new design Space Shuttle programme. One of the astronauts was #JohnYoung who had previously been on two #Apollo missions to the moon and #Gemini and the US space programmes. One of the astronauts who explained the phenomenon and gave the nickname "twang"
The sounds in space -- is that simulated or that from the vibration being transmitted thru the structure and being picked up by a microphone, e.g. by one of the GoPros attached to the end of the solar array?
It is simulated. I was going for exactly what you’re describing- what the vibration through the structure might sound like from inside the cabin. The cabin itself was pressurized, just without any of the astronauts onboard. To my knowledge, NASA hasn’t released any audio recordings from Orion- I don’t think there would have been a need for a mic on this mission
@@DigitalAstronaut Perhaps the sound of blood moving through your body.
A-W-E-S-O-M-E AUDIO-VISUAL CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE ! ! !
Imagine if they attached an 8k per eye 3D stereo cameras there, at least in a window inside, so everyone with a VR headset would feel like being next to the Moon for real.
Thank you, a very nice movie. It's a shame when you see what humanity could achieve if united.
3:36 What is that smudge of light right in the middle of the screen? Looks like a galaxy but could be anything. Might have to switch to 2160p to see it clearly. The water deluge system is finely tuned. Nice launch.

What is the liquid that spilled at the beginning?
Water to dampen vibration and loud sound
You always have to give 🎉 to NASA. Space X has made it possible for USA again. NASA didn't give Space X $? For no reason!!!

What I've always liked about NASA. They paint the US Flag with "UNITED STATES" everywhere on the spacecraft. Bad Ass.
The most powerful operational rocket in the world, at time of writing. It's much like its Saturn V forebear in that regard. The Saturn was technically not as powerful as its soviet rival, the N1. However, the N1 never flew without turning into a fireball. EDIT: Because the meaning of the second paragraph isn't clear enough, the point I was making is that the SLS is not as powerful as the Starship. However, the Starship is not, at time of writing, an operational rocket. It's an incomplete test article that keeps dying a fiery death in the upper atmosphere. If Starship becomes operational, _then_ SLS will no longer be the most powerful operational rocket in the world, and only then. The rocket needs to be operational to be considered the most powerful operational rocket, after all. Kinda in the name. But it's not there yet.
It WAS Until It Got ECLIPSED By STARSHIP ! ! !
@@andrewhillis9544 Note that I said "operational." Starship is not operational. Starship has yet to fly without turning into a fireball. Starship is currently not even complete, it's a fuselage with engines and remote controls and cameras in it, and nothing else. That's why the launches have been referred to as "Test articles," they're not complete vehicles. That's why I made the comparison to Saturn V and N1. The N1 was more powerful than the Saturn, but because it never actually completed a flight, the Saturn remained the winner by default. Power is meaningless if you can't actually use it for anything.
@@andrewhillis9544starship is yet to actually achieve anything. Also having so many engines on a single stage seems like Soviet N1 levels of bad idea
Is clear that as space exploration becomes more ambitious, will b beyond any single nation's resources. There'll hafta b genuine international cooprtn outa sheer necessity .. ie; ALL of Humanity .. instead of this incessant squabbling. Imagine how much resource could b diverted away from the militaries. So exciting prospect returning 2 Moon, then onto Mars, then mining of the asteroids, then the stars! Manned Artemis 2 this yr? Art-3 in 2025?

Seriously needs to be renamed #Arthritis 😊😊😊
A Artemis 2 está mais atrasado que o Starship 😂😂😂 Já tivemos 2 teste esse ano, próximo ano terá muito mais e com certeza teremos avanço mais contundentes.
0:49 WHEN THOSE SOLIDS LIGHT UP YOU KNOW YOU ARE GOING SOMEWHERE & F-A-S-T ! ! !👍
0:30 W-O-W ! ! ! YOU CAN HEAR THE SONIC BOOMS OF THE RS-25 HYDROLOX ENGINES AND THE DETONATION IGNITION OF THE SOLID ROCKET BOOSTERS AS THEY ROAR INTO LIFE ! ! ! THE EXPELLED GASES FROM THE RS-25 ENGINES AND THE SOLID ROCKET BOOSTERS ARE BEING EXPELLED AT NEARLY FOURTEEN TIMES THE SPEED OF SOUND ! ! !
Still kind of pathetic that we're struggling to accomplish something that we HAD accomplished 50+ years ago without building on it. The Shuttle program was such a completely wasted era. An intensely expensive fairground ride that just went round and round, and would, on occasion kill 7 people at a time.
It was expensive but not a failure. The ISS wouldn't exist without the Shuttle program
2:20 MAX-Q AND GOING SUPERSONIC ! ! !👍
