KSP: Evolution of the Most Popular Rocket In History!

the r7 booster the most launched rocket in history over 1 000 launches has like loads of different versions from the 60s till now from sputnik to soyuz so much different stuff very epic boosters so let us do that let's make all of them in ksp starting with the main booster so let's get started yeah 60s this thing first started flying yeah and uh yeah like i said we're making all of them in kerbal space programs and like the evolution of the r7 booster so um basically if you don't know what it is it's the one everyone it's sputnik soyuz it's the you know the thing with the four boosters it does the core live cross thing very awesome a very odd and the design aside from like engine improvements and some slight tweaks to the fuel tanks and crap the main booster is literally like not changed from the 60s which is just insane and is still flying today i don't know that's either a testament to how bad technological progress has been or how good this booster is i don't know one of the two but uh the first uh orbital usage of this thing this thing was originally an icbm but the first orbital rocket usage the first non-boom boom usage of it um was the sputnik sputnik um to launch the wealth spot you know we're in america and in in soviet and they call it like sputnik i don't know i call it sputnik um because i'm merkin anyway um it was the launch sputnik which was the first satellite ever launched into space which is very epic and you can see here that's doing our launch right now of the sputnik go ahead and light those edges beautiful waterfall um the waterfall pluma very epic um so the um the spawning basically is literally just the r7 booster with a modified fairing to put this little ball thing in there uh the r7 is just the core stage with the four strap on boosters there is despite having four nozzles per engine these are actually one engine so there's one engine per booster and then there are some vernier thrusters to help uh guide the rocket because the main engines themselves can't actually gimbal so they have those vernier engines to help you think and gimbal so and uh the actually one of the more famous things about the um r7 is a corlev cross if you don't know what that is basically the name of the the fun way the kind of the boosters will separate here you'll see them when they're about to separate right now they do this kind of like spinny thing way if you don't know what it is very famous um it's like the coolest boosted separation spaceflight history while my voice is dying but yeah it's like the coolest booster separation space like history very awesome the same after sergey correlia or coral ever i like corellia but that's not accurate it's more like cortlaf um because correlative sounds fun um is the actual it's the name of the guy who designed the r7 booster so there you're going to go ahead and circularize and then you're going to detach the payload and then we are going to move on to the next one and these are actually it's actually cool looking at the evolution because the booster itself doesn't actually change it's just they're just slight modifications to like upper stages and fairings and blah blah blah blah blah but um that's cool because there's only like small tweaks um um in each different thing but by the end it looks completely different to be honest um so next is luna luna luna luna so uh luna is uh the basically the second space program of the soviet union um and that's basically where they launched these probes um to the moon uh most of the missions failed but you know some of them succeeded and they were able to crash some payloads into the moon they were able to take some pictures with stolen cia cameras very epic and they were also able to fly by also very cool right um and also very cool haha transitions plugs are very cool so you can hit the subscribe button if you want to do that you can also join our discord and join our patreon become a member go to pilotshop.com merch i also have a new channel um pilot stream highlights card wherever that goes we do stream highlights on that channel very epic you should go check it out awesome sick all right we are launching okay went a little bit over time on those plugs so this is luna is basically a r7 booster but with a tiny little upper stage added to the top of it so um the tunnel upper stage basically can help the thing basically get out to the moon do the translunar injection um as we go ahead and do the booster staging away again and then we will be ready to deploy the payload in just a moment the luna um orbiter satellite thing is actually very similar to the sputnik except it has this little engine at the bottom of it um to help kind of maneuver and control itself orientation so um there we go we can separate these stage timer pumped wrap laps and it'll circularize and then we will head on out and do it we'll do a little crash for krasheroni into the moon i know what i'm talking about anyway um so there it is and boom and there it goes the waterfall plume looks so cool look at that that is just waterfalls great mug great great great mod so um just about to finish the burn and then we will be um just yeah impacting the moon with that with that little probe there so we a little bit of a camera change there and we yay plop all right on to the next one so after luna is actually a very so this is vostok um so vostok is basically a very small changes so there's actually no changes to the base rock there are some very small changes to the upper stage but um not really many that you could make in ksp so i actually didn't change hyperstage at all but uh this is where this is crude right so this is when yuri gagarin was was on this one and you know you got first man and space pretty nuts um so yeah they basically added the little capsule thing to the top of it i don't really call it a capsule i don't know what you call the soviet thing it's big ball weird circle ball battle metal ball metal metal ball whatever you want to call it um so yeah instead of putting the probe um to go out to the moon they put the put the vostok spacecraft which is basically it's like this little bottom bit with the maneuvering and then there's a little circle ball thing on top um which is where the uh the person will sit um and then it's also what they use as the reentry capsule pod descent module module that's there that's the one okay so that's about that made and then we will transition back over to the launch pad and we'll have a look at the launch of this uh of this craft if you look at our kerbal that's werner von kerman um but i speak one last stream i did um i had the viewers um i said that i could i would launch like 20 viewers 20 of you i'd make about kerbals for 20 people and then launch them on my on one of the launches on stream um yeah so we made 2010 by the time we actually got launched the game was so laggy with all the kerbals because i had them all mounted on the outside of the rocket it didn't even work so i said hey i'll just be including these they're the 20 random kerbals i created for viewers um just intermittently in videos so this is verner von kerman is going to be on um on today's flight now as we separate the bottom stage and now firing the upper stage which is getting a little bit spinning out he's fine no problems all perfectly to arrive this is russia red and a lot of red a lot of fun stuff happens over in superior communism land anyway um we're going to now circularize the uh the craft and then we will separate it and then we will just uh do a quick entry and landing and because the vostok actually had a very interesting way of landing it's just a bit of a meme so i'm gonna go ahead separate that and then we will just cut straight over to the entry and landing there's quite a few landing entries here so i try and go through quite as quickly um because they get boring after a while so here we come the weird metal ball thing just falling through the atmosphere very janky very absolute um and there we go and they're ready the most kerbal thing that was this thing is they weren't confident that the parachute could slow the craft down sufficiently for a soft safe landing so they asked the cosmonauts their cosmonauts over there they had to jump out i have a geary guard handy he jumped out which is yeah interesting um we had to bail on your rocket so there we go next one we're going lightning mcqueen speed here cut chow right now really cringey um malnia so magna is basically just an extra stage added um so the upper stage of the upper upper stage is basically almost uh left untouched but there is like this middle stage which is quite big actually and what you're going to add and the malnya um they did um both leo payloads and uh i believe it was mainly used for interplanetary payloads so what is our payload gonna be i never even showed you guys what our payload's gonna be oh it'll have to be a surprise you'll have to wait like 30 seconds whoa pretty nuts as we start our gravity turn now with the ammonia which is really fun to say not as fun as ven's death zvezda is super fun to say a lot of a lot of russian words are fun for some reason like communism which is totally irrational um or superior which is like the only word in the russian dictionary um so uh totally um getting ready for uh fairing separation oh my gosh it's mr banana man yo who remembers mr banana man um since i started this kind of meme when i my channel was a little bit smaller um if you don't know what this is um it's basically mr banana man it was just this random thing was just gonna he just randomly appears in my video from time to time if yep it's just mr brandon man there you go so he's a bit of a meme he's been on he's been doing some pretty fun stuff he's been on a delivery van uh he got shipped up on some rockets or he made an ssto in space i'll rebuilt a rocket in space whatever mission he was on so mr brown man will just keep cropping up time to time and i realized i hadn't included him for a while so here's a mr brandon man who is going to get on into low earth orbit like so and then he'll be getting ready to move on to the next one let's see comment what you think the next one is let's see who knows they're in the whole comment you know what it's uh it's vos cod voscod i was about to say vostok but we already did about talk about vostok is another fun one to say vostok so yeah um vosgod is basically like the bridge in my opinion between like the old designs and the more modern design that's not really true but at least making ksb kind of felt like that so um voscod is basically like a soyuz type booster rocket thing with a um older soyu with an older like vostok type spacecraft so the rocket is actually virtually identical um granted it's not identical to real life because i made some engine and fuel tank improvements are actually quite substantial but the size and proportions and staging setup is basically the same as it is today basically um for soyuz uh with the rs7 uh so but the spacecraft is a it's very very very similar to vos stock well i have to remember i have to say it just adds these little extensions to the top inside because the the big the big gimmick about um voskhod was like hey spacewalks exist now so that was kind of the thing so they have this little airlock and crap on it so um that's kind of the thing that voscod tried to accomplish and did yeah first space off which is pretty cool um uh but yeah back in like the 60s oh that was um actually no i crap corrected myself r7 was flying in the 50s yeah because uh spawning was late 50s haha i know what i'm talking about i am genius and i should make a quick little change of the engine set up here because it was kind of exploding in the way i had it so i'm just gonna go ahead and do it like that very very very epic and then we will going to be getting ready i mean i start like i feel like the soyuz is modern but the story's been flying since like the 80s i think which is nuts it's always been around forever r7 has been around for everybody houses how they're not up to the booster design ah i mean they made proton but either way we are at the launch pad for voska liftoff very very epic all right so going on our way into orbit with god we have two curves now very epic um we're going to start our gravity turn and then you know basically so the uh fifth fifth fourth fifth fourth i don't remember what launch this is um there is uh sputnik vostok malnia this is the fourth fourth launch right no no sputnik luna vostok malnet this is the fifth option fifth launch the fifth fifth long for the booster so you probably get what's going on here so he probably gets a memo about how the boosters are working crap so i'm gonna jam this in the fairings i love how i'm just like making this up as i go like oh well what am i doing i'm making mentality just talk about what's going on i have a empty water glass on my desk peak quality content so much better than matalon who like plans out his videos and stuff what do you mean planning on my videos i guess that's what you need when you try to do daily uploads try you know keyword try we're gonna do it now from now on we're gonna get two months of solid knock and miss a day for two months that's my that's my goal here and then i can miss days just kidding we will never miss days ever but i really like to go two months without missing a day which is nuts i don't know i don't think i've told you guys about all those plans um but i'm going to be trying shooting for in the next um starting this week or definitely next week i'm going to try to be doing 12 pieces of content today which is a lot oh boy it's not going to be fun i mean that's up from like five pieces of content that you've been doing right now so i mean stream highlights are three so i don't know if those really count but either way voskhod is on the ground so now we can move on as i continue i continue my rambling nonsense nonsense i can't even speak it's kind of late um soyuz so i use soyuz soyuz i can like speed build soyuz at this time because i have been using the same design for my soyuz for like an absolute eternity like i haven't had a tutorial on it oh not so subtle plug um uh because yeah absolutely the same design i've been using for ever so i can like basically speed build this in like two three minutes um so there's soyuz um i just did like the double up little solar panel things because i i think the big solar panels are a little bit too big um but the ones i have on there i think are they i mean it doesn't look nice but you know i'm trying to like make them look inside too thick so it kind of looks like their bigger point is soyuz so i'm going to go ahead and attach that literally to the to the vos cod rocket um and then we will just be putting a fairing and then it'll be getting ready for launching after i've set up my staging and then set up the action groups and then it'll be ready to launch this next one there we are welcome to launch right also recolored everything because the soyuz is kind of notoriously has this like kind of orange brown type color to it so there we go in the sky ignore like the crash starship plane there that was just a mess of the stream of pilot co um that's why i'm sorry i never cleaned it up um point is we are now launching getting ready for a booster separation this is probably the most uh not the most visually distinct but it has that launch escape tower on top which does make it look a little bit more unique than all some of the other designs um as we go ahead stage the boosters getting ready for a fairing separation and they'll be getting ready for a launch escape tower jettisoning um very shortly after that which is very epic there it goes there goes landscape tower and then we get ready for core separation and then ignition of the upper stage there it goes so just the last few hundred meters a second before we can get our way into orbit and then this will be the final crude launch of the video there is going to be two more after this though um very epic right you know almost almost to modern day which is i guess kind of cool uh there you go we're gonna separate the spacecraft and i'll quickly do a little re-entry there with the descent module so one of the gimmicky things about the uh soyuz it has these little retro landing engines that fire like a split second before uh touchdown just to lighten the impact just a little bit i'm usually pretty good at timing them the firing of those but i absolutely memed myself this time and you'll see what happens here it's kind of funny so here we go [Music] oh yeah no oopsie daisies ah firing those probably made the landing even harder oh boy irony anyway um we're gonna speed run through this one you're gonna absolutely speedrun because this is this is progress and if you don't know what progress is um it is literally literally a soyuz exactly like a slow it's not really any comments actually i'm actually um there's a few there's a few differences uh between internet soyuz um so there's there's no actual so there's a in the soyuz there's a descent orbit and um the scent orbit and then like the the um the scent orbit and then service module um and then in progress they're all they don't separate they're all just glued together but basically it's literally just a sawyers no one cares about progress it's lame anyway not really get some progress fans in there get upset um but yeah it's there's something i like i didn't think you guys wanted to watch literally the exact same thing without the launch escape tower um just launched again so um now we're moving on to the last one the soyuz frigate which is another fun one to say so this is basically um the big so this comes in a few different options but the big faring one is what i like because i think the big fairing story is actually pretty funny and they're still launching today i mean so is the normal soyuz but uh this is the launching today for the esa quite uh quite often i believe it launches the oneweb subs subs satellites um but it has this little uh third stage or fourth stage depending on your confidence stages at the top is this tiny pretty little light kickstage thing but uh the big standout feature is the it's a really big old fairing it has on top of it's a really cool thing it's actually one of my favorite fairings and uh in spaceflight i don't know why you'd have a favorite fairing but it's my it might be my favorite fairing i don't know what the crap they're talking about i mean the falcon fairing is pretty cool too but i like i like that very um it's a it's a pretty cool looking fairy anyway this is like the most uninteresting thing to toilet let's talk about fairings and which one is the best shape i also really like the topic okay i'm gonna shut up about um so there we go i don't know what that explosion was about but uh see now this one i tried for this one i just tried to see how much payload i could launch i initially tried to do a floor tank it was just a little bit short aboard with the floor tank so this is a little bit a little bit of orange drained out of it so um yeah um so that is it that is all eight major versions once we get this thing circularized of the r7 the evolution the complete history remade in the most quality of manner in kerbal space program so very epic right i hope you enjoyed the video uh yeah i hope you do um on screen um when it fades to black in a second or two will be all of all our channel members big things for anyone who's become a channel member also big thanks to all the patreons that come on screen right now but they'll do it for me so thank you for watching this next time please rate or comment through this video once again thanks for watching see you next time and bye
