In 2018, Marshall Space Flight Center uploaded a ton of really cool old "Saturn V Quarterly Updates". Watching these videos really helped me understand the scale of the Apollo program. What our ancestors did was absolutely amazing. Here is one of those videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGtU3vnNeEk

Go to the MSFC YouTube channel, scroll back to 2018 and watch those Archival films. They are amazing, even from a film production standpoint.

These video series go from the "Size of the known and observed universe" - with the best of the technology we had from the 80's - the Hubble space Telescope.

The intial set is about the size of the observed or known universe.

The second set is the series on the issues of rocket engines, rockets and rocket development and production.

The third set is an of array of information about and from the Hubble Telescope - the technology and the images.

And the fourth set is about the ADVANCES in space telescopes beyond the Hubble Teescope - being the James Webb Sace Telescope.

And the fifth video is about the Euclid Space Telescope


The James Webb Space Telescope and the Euclid Space Telescope are two different research tools - with very different purposes and technologies...

All though the Hubble was up and operational in the early 1980's - there was a prodigious amount of planning, design and then the building of it and then the optical correction of it, after launching...

The James Webb and the Euclid Space Telescopes have also had prodigious lead times in their planning, design, construction and development - but they had a big foundation to build upon - better questions to ask and better understandings and technology to do the further research with, and futher and deeper issues to research....

It's a bit like, "How deep is a very deep hole?" - that can only be solved by figuring out the acceleration rate of gravity and the speed of sound, and then dropping a rock down the hole... and timing the release time and the sound of the rock hitting bottom... Maths.. or using a very slong strong piece of string - but the materials and the weaving technologies have to be developed - so the string is both long enough and strong enough to each the bottom....

And the ladder to reach the bottom - you need the steel, the manufacturing technology and the ways to drill holes in the rocks and to bolt them to the rock, to attach the ladder to the rock, on the way down - and the technical development to do all of this and to construct it....

There is staggering amounts of smarts, research, development and insights, and everything has a foundation of everything before it.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


These are really worth watching.

They are a bit out of date in some aspects... but they are completely relevant....

Very simple - but it gets the ideas in your head - that just cannot be dealt with....

There is too much.

hah, i knew he was going to say engines...
everyone like the engines because they make big fire and loud noises that you can feel.

Yeah I am deeply impressed by everything to do with this... and everything else. 40,000 working at NASA and 300,000 people on the contractors lists.... WOW.... and it all worked.
