Why Single Stage to Orbit rockets SUCK. The wacky history and future maybes of SSTOs
Rockets are HUGE, complicated and expensive. As a matter of fact, the rocket that took humans to the moon, the Saturn 5, was 111 meters or 363 feet tall, and had more separation events than dating teenagers.
So why do rockets always split themselves into multiple parts. Isn’t that complicated and risky? Why throw so much away? I mean, there’s got to be a better way!!!
Well how about if rockets were only ONE stage? How awesome would that be? Well this idea isn’t new… it’s called single stage to orbit or SSTO and it’s often considered the holy grail of rocketry.
Well, today, I’m going to SMASH THAT HOLY GRAIL and explain why I think SSTO’s SUCK.
In order to drill this point in we’ll teach you all about the tyranny of the rocket equation and help you understand why every orbital rocket,...

Is Single Stage to Orbit Even Possible?
This video is about single-stage-to-orbit (SSTO). So far, this is only a dream of rocket scientists and is difficult to achieve with today's technology - at least if you want to do it without nuclear propulsion and launch from Earth. Nevertheless, there have already been several concepts for single-stage rockets and spaceships, yet none of these concepts reached production readiness, and are at prototype status, at best.

Hyperion Single-Stage-To-Orbit (SSTO) Rocket #rocketscience #physics #nasa
Philip Bono's 1960s "Hyperion" was a groundbreaking single-stage-to-orbit (SSTO) concept that captured the imagination of the aerospace industry. Featuring a plug-nozzle engine and a heat shield, it was designed to transport 18,100 kg of payload or 110 passengers to orbit in just 45 minutes. Its innovative horizontal takeoff and vertical landing (HTVL) system utilized a sled launch, providing a 300 m/s boost along a 3 km rail followed by a 1 km ascent up a mountainside. However, the requirement for a 1.7 km-high mountain limited its feasibility.
Despite these challenges, the Hyperion demonstrated advanced technology, including full reusability and optimized mass. With an estimated development cost of $1.5 billion, it remains a visionary milestone in space exploration.

Single Stage To Orbit (SSTO) Tutorial
Single Stage To Orbit aka SSTO is a cost efficient method to launch Satellites because you only use one to put the sat. into orbit. Want to build a one in Space Flight Simulator? If Yes then you are at the right place, I will show the building process and how to land it safely in shortest way possible.

Why Single Stage to Orbit Rockets SUCK The Wacky History & Future Maybes #modelrockets #rocket
Single Stage to Orbit (SSTO) rockets face significant challenges, making them inefficient for most space missions. Achieving orbit requires immense speed and energy, which usually demands large amounts of fuel. With an SSTO, the entire rocket—including engines, fuel, and payload—must reach orbit in one go, leaving little room for optimization. This results in a heavier, less efficient rocket compared to multi-stage designs, which can jettison excess weight along the way. Historical SSTO attempts like the X-33 highlighted these issues, though advances in materials and propulsion keep SSTOs in speculative discussions for the future. However, multi-stage rockets remain far more practical for now.

Radian Aerospace, World’s First Single Stage to Orbit Spaceplane
Seattle-based Radian Aerospace has finished the first round of ground taxi testing for a prototype aircraft that’s meant to blaze the trail for a first-of-its-kind, single-stage-to-orbit space plane.
Radian said the low-speed runway tests were successfully completed this month in Abu Dhabi, with the aim of assessing the subscale prototype’s flight characteristics in preparation for building its full-scale Radian One spaceship.
“These successful tests represent an early but significant step in our broader journey to bring Radian One to market,” Richard Humphrey, co-founder and CEO of Radian, said today in a news release. “While we know there is much work ahead, each step in our robust test program brings us closer to transforming access to space with rapid, reusable and cost-effective tra...

Ignition Sequence Start! The Saturn V's Engines Roar to Life
Journey to the moon with us as we break down the complex engine start sequences of the mighty Saturn V rocket! From the thunderous F-1 engines of the first stage to the intricate dance of electrical and pneumatic systems in the upper stages, we'll explore the engineering marvels that launched humanity to the stars!
This podcast episode will explore a detailed description of the engine start sequence for each stage of the Saturn V rocket, drawing upon the information from the Saturn V Flight Manual SA-506.

Seattle-based Radian Aerospace has finished the first round of ground taxi testing for a prototype aircraft that’s meant to blaze the trail for a first-of-its-kind, single-stage-to-orbit space plane.
Radian said the low-speed runway tests were successfully completed this month in Abu Dhabi, with the aim of assessing the subscale prototype’s flight characteristics in preparation for building its full-scale Radian One spaceship.
“These successful tests represent an early but significant step in our broader journey to bring Radian One to market,” Richard Humphrey, co-founder and CEO of Radian, said today in a news release. “While we know there is much work ahead, each step in our robust test program brings us closer to transforming access to space with rapid, reusable and cost-effective transport to low Earth orbit.”
