Unlock the captivating history of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) from its 1930s inception to future missions. Explore groundbreaking space endeavors, innovation, and upcoming projects shaping the universe’s exploration!
"Hey guys, wanna do some backyard chemistry to launch some rockets?" "Sure." "We'll be called the Suicide Squad, because it's going to be dangerous." "We're in."
So this channel will be one of the Whistleverse's serious channels, unlike the crazy fun powder fuled other channel that was once Business themed. Still, this one is becoming one of my favorite channels.
I really liked this video. The serious, more in-depth ones are more interesting than the sort of just "space facts" type videos, though I do like those as well.
So in 1965 we found proof of frost on Mars. I find that interesting as they have been lying to us for 68 years. I was led to believe that water only existed at the poles and deep craters. wow surface frost!
If they send a mini helicopter with the astronauts that eventually go to mars that would be peak. It would probably be easier to send it first and have them land in the same spot
There is a tradition at JPL to eat "good luck peanuts" before critical mission events, such as orbital insertions or landings. As the story goes, after the Ranger program had experienced failure after failure during 1960s, the first successful Ranger mission to impact the Moon occurred after a JPL staff member had decided to pass out peanuts to relieve tension. The staff jokingly decided that the peanuts must have been good luck charm, and the tradition persisted.
let me correct you: OsirisX is an assessment of the profitability of asteroid based missions. If there is no profit to be gained there is no interest in such missions.
anyone else feel that this series feels a bit odd ? it feels like he suddenly has ADHD or something, just spitting out info, jumping from topic to topic
No views? Sweet. I'm number 1
"Hey guys, wanna do some backyard chemistry to launch some rockets?"
"Sure."
"We'll be called the Suicide Squad, because it's going to be dangerous."
"We're in."
I believe this calls for an unreasonably long video about JPL.
Fantastic video SImon and team 🙂 Keep it up
anyone else see that one person wearing an american bright shirt at jpl? looks suspicious!
"…And God Created Larry (Wall). No one knows why God Created Larry, unless it was to lower productivity at JPL…"

I'd watch a documentary on Simon's early beginnings & journey through the world of YouTube to his current established cyber empire.
You need to cover JHU APL

Astrographics just had a baby with Side Projects and here we are. Fuck away.
A ridiculously long video on JZL and it's programs would be amazing
Damn this is a lot of information. 😮

Agree with others, good formula. Good watch. And now look, we got independent people making better shows than many networks ever did.

Jack Parsons was a character, well worth looking up 👍
Ahha! A new Channel to add to the Whistle-verse! I'm here for it!

Turn down the background music!
How many channels are you on, anyway!?
You could make my poop cosistencies over a month sound interesting
Awesome video working in aerospace this is great. Maybe aerospace corporation next and how they let marvel use its campus and logo
The beginnings of JPL were alluded to in 'The Martian'. Just after Mark Watney blew himself up 'lighting hydrogen on fire'…
