Nukes only to Orbit (Project Orion) - KSP

Nuking a spaceship into orbit and back.
It's not like the real Project Orion launch, more like a Kerbal turbo extrem version.

It would be nice to use nukes only for space travel and not as weapons.

0:56 wait, an SWDennis video with the UI visible?
Impossible

Orion engine:
+good thrust
+a lot dV
-high cost
-high breakage rate
-high weight
(in atmosphere):
-add rad to enviroment and immediately kill every in 50km.

My favorite part was the one where the KSC was still standing!

Probably the first SSTO that runs purely on solid fuel

It feels weird ah hell to watch a KSP video with stellaris soundtrack.

[glx]

[Phelan]

This is still the most zany vehicle design ever conceived of.

[kevintang]

Less like a rocket and more like a yeeter

[sfsfilmsyearsago]

Background: Joyful music
Meanwhile all life being slowly and painfully exterminated

[jrfirefiher]

this was a real space mission but there was a treaty where they could not explode nuclear missiles in space and concerns of fallout it was too risky :3

[Ygerna]

The Stellaris music seems appropriate given that you probably wiped out a few billion people with those nukes

[Nafinafnaf]

Basically the explodey engine in ksp 2
