Why Does NASA Pay CalTech $2,827,348,527 Every Year?

It's not surprising to see space companies like Blue Origin, SpaceX, and Lockheed Martin near the top of NASA's payout list. However, the largest benefactor is none of those companies, but actually the California Institute of Technology or CalTech. Every year, CalTech receives nearly $3 billion in funding for operating the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory or JPL are the people behind all of the Mars rovers, the Voyager missions, and the Viking missions. In fact, JPL actually outdates NASA themselves. JPL was originally started way back in October of 1936 when Professor Von Karman and a group of graduate students decided to experiment with some rocket engines. Originally, they worked with the US Army and provided them with jet propulsion technology and missile guidance technology. Eventually though, after NASA was established, JPL basically became a subsidiary of NASA. This video describes the history of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory run by CalTech and why JPL gets paid billions every single year.

I learned something new today. I thought JPL was a stand-alone company. The US obviously needs to keep funding this tech giant!

[cobya]

So basically, Cal tech is NASA's R&D company

This is a really detailed video with a super specific title

[gergelytolgyesi]

Actually Theodor Karman (Kármán Tódor) was a hungarian born scientist. The HQ of JPL is called Von Karman building and the theoretical boundry of space, the 100km line above earth also named after him (Karman line).

Great information. I'd just like to add that the Voyager probes were launched on a strict time frame to take advantage of the once in every 175 year planetary alignment that allowed these craft to visit all the solar system planets beyond earth in a single mission. They really were a remarkable achievement that taught us so much about our planets, most especially those beyond Saturn, which to this day, lie largely out of our reach for direct visitation due to the huge distances involved.

Seeing your editing and content I sometimes wonder about your subscription number.
Good luck for future endeavours ❤️

A tour of the JPL in Pasadena, CA is one of the hardest tickets to secure in So Cal due to intense public interest. You must book well in advance and no walk ups are taken in. Now with the Mars helicopter more interest will lead to longer waits to enter JPL. 😿

[ChadSimplicio]

JPL is why the Mars missions are possible.

[VoyagerSpace]

Great video and very interesting topic!

[Think_Inc]

That title made my head spin. No rounding numbers, huh?

[DarthAwar]

JPL is for sure Underrated and Underfunded!

[TheRobidoux]

Don't ever change, love the videos

[stephenmadu]

A very specific topic for a specific video

[BenjaminOrthodox]

I didn’t know the origins of NASA were in California as well.

[jeetmehta]

Can u please cover the alibaba and Chinese government topic please it's really important because people outside of China need to know what was the problem with ant ipo and why was alibaba fined so that people can know about china and it's policies on tech companies.

[QuickVee]

I hope to someday get accepted into a JPL internship. I applied this Summer, but no reply.

[oliviajifcovici]

How could I only with general knowledge collaborate on your projects without specific knowledge?

[silviobertonati]

Where did you got that Ingenuity had taken off hahaha. It just got deployed, it has not flown yet.

[manghariz]

From a small local experiment to become a fuel in space exploration.

Long live Jack Parsons the original founder of JPL, (Jack Parson Lab). You should do a video on him.
