A space fireplace in 4K
Ah, the sweet sound of rockets roaring, the comforting glow of liquid hydrogen burning… So many details that are probably not for every space fan. And if you followed with great interest the Artemis 1 mission, launched straight towards the Moon in 2022, then you should love this video from NASA, posted online on their Youtube channel, on November 26, 2024. For 8 hours, you you will be able to contemplate the four RS-25 engines of the Space Launch System as well as a pair of thrusters, all in 4K, please.
But what does this have to do with the Artemis program? Well, this space fireplace was developed from a video from November 2022, dedicated to the famous mission. With the help of AI, to create an all-stone setting for this combustion, NASA used images of the launch of Artemis 1, but also the roar of the rockets, the volume of which was obviously reduced for us envelop in a gentle roar. So, while you wait for Christmas, are you ready to aim for the Moon, in the company of that crackling fireplace and a good hot chocolate?
