Im pretty sure SpaceX's next big leap is getting into orbit

How much did NASA spend on their new bulky EVA suits again? *SPACEX JOINED THE CHAT*

👏

4:24 The Atlas-V started flying in Sep 2002, just 4 MONTHS after SpaceX was founded. SpaceX didn't land a booster until Dec 2015 (13 yrs later) and didn't reuse a booster until Mar 2017 (15 yrs later). Booster reusability is great, but has drawbacks. First, if you don't have a fast enough launch cadence, you can spend more on recovery equipment and personnel than you save by reusing the booster. Second, you take a payload hit for the recovery system on the booster. The Falcon 9 B5 can lift up to 22.8 tons to LEO when expended (SX), but only up to 17.4 tons when landed on a drone ship (B1067.9). Doing a Return to Launch Site (RTLS) landing, costs even more payload as you have to add a boost back burn to cancel the lateral velocity and return back to the launch site. Third, the higher and faster you go, the harder reusability is to perform. The heavier the dry-mass of your booster, the harder reusability is to perform. Fourth, you now have to have the weather be acceptable at the launch site and the landing site, if it is down range of the launch. No, I'm not saying that SpaceX should not recover boosters. I'm using how reusability affects the Falcon 9 to discuss other expendable boosters. Making the Atlas-V reusable, would mean redesigning the whole booster. The Atlas-V replacement Vulcan Centaur is expected to do booster separation higher and faster than the Falcon boosters. So they are planning on what they call Sensible Modular Autonomous Return Technology (SMART) reuse. The engine section will detach and an inflatible heat shield will expand to protect the section during re-entry. They will parachute he inflatible heat shield to land in the ocean and fish it out of the water. ULA says that the tanks are cheap to make, so they are only recovering the more expensive engine part with the flight avionics. ULA plans to get Vulcan Centaur flying, before trying the SMART recovery. The Vulcan Centaur is 5.4m in diameter compared to the 3.7m Falcon booster, so almost certainly has more dry-mass. 4:28 Since the Atlas-V is retiring, any future Starliner flights (like to commercial stations) would almost certainly be launched on the ULA Vulcan Centaur, which noted above will be partially recoverable.

4:12 Crew Dragon has the SAME TWICE a year cadence to the ISS that Starliner does for the Commercial Crew contracts. Once Starliner is operational, each will do 1 NASA flight to the ISS each year.

3:54 Starliner and Crew Dragon Commercial Crew contracts are fixed-price contracts, so the Boeing bid in Sep 2014 was for all he development, OFT flight, this CFT flight, and the 6 operational missions. So the $90M per mission has ALREADY been bid by Boeing for the flights. Since the contracts are fixed-price contracts, Boeing has been paying for the Starliner fixes. The last Soyuz seat that NASA purchased was $86M and future Soyez seats were going to be more than $90M per the NASA OIG.

1:59 No, the launch was attempted on May 6th, because ALL the problems that needed to be fixed on Starliner for flight, WERE fixed.

1:06 It's attitude thruster, for roll (x), yaw (y), and pitch (z). Altititude is the height of something. Crew Dragon uses the same toxic hypergolics for its RCS and abort engines as well.

HELLO MAHAL❤ELON HIMO AN NA TANAN KARON KAY SUNOD BUSY NA KA KAAYONG DAGHANG KANG ADTO AN MGA LUGAR DAGKONG NEGOSYO ANG HIMO ON TANAN MAHAL PALANGING LAB LAB KAAYONG HONEY DARLING❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

its rolled back, delayed again til 17th

Highly toxic fuel that just dissipates toxic exhaust into our surrounding air. Wow.

I hope it flies better than their airplanes...

i wouldnt wanna be on that flight.. RIP

He's already sold these floating platforms. This video is 2 years late.

I appreciate the new information, but I hope that in future the narration be toned down from the "aliens are among us" hyperbolic speech patterns. its good info you're providing though, thanks!

The Musk family are amazing. This adventure to Mars amazes me nothing since the space shuttle has required my attention in space until Elons first recovered launch capsule. Never see enough now.Thank God i am not alone the world is watching

Didn't Musk say there would already be people on Mars by now? SpaceX are bullshit artists.

By the time the astronauts got their they would be long dead. Nothing would be built. Certainly not underground shelters.

The surface of Mars is not protected from this Radiation like the Earth has with our Van Allen Belts. The space ships have none. More Fantasyland.

You guys never ever even mention a major major stumbling block. Space is loaded with deadly radiation and these spacecraft have NO where near sufficient radiation protection , if they indeed have any whatsoever to protect their crews. Of course no one does. That would destroy this fantasyland.

waste of time..

My god, tone down the language. No, this isn't "unimaginable", it was written about in the 1890s. No, they didn't "catch the attention" of NASA, they're working with NASA fairly closely. Just tone it down a little.

😂🤣😂🤣 I'm sure it'll be ready "next year"

Thanks, great summary

It's very unlikely that Elon Musk's Moonbase dream is ever going to eventuate. The entire strategy of getting there is just 'Buck Roger concepts. The same goes for his Mars colonisation. All of it is just a multi- millionaire's fantasy. We must go back to the Apollo Moon Missions and see how NASA eventually figured out a practical way of getting out the the Moon and landing there. Their original ideas were very similar to what Elon Musk's ideas are now. They then realised just how impractical the original concept was. But I guess we'll see how all of this is going to 'pan out'

Has anyone noticed how futuristic looking the starship gets after each test flight? Roll on TF4 ,I hope I don't miss it as it should be seen from space. Great show. Slainte ❤

Get to Mars?? The thing can’t even get into orbit around Earth. Musk is a straight-up grifter. Wake up, sycophants.

Starship is just bonkers. Amazing that it is even real. We are so lucky to be able to witness the real time development of this awesome vehicle.

What are the in flight disadvantages of using Methane especially when recovery of the stages are part of the mission?

HELLO MAHAL ELON ❤ WOWWWWWWW KAAYONG SA TANAN ANG GALING MO MAHAL PALANGANG LAB LAB HONEY DARLING❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Would it not be best to have additional chop sticks just for the catching of the booster, especially as it is likely that the booster will increase in height.

the first catch tower should not have a base for the first 4-5 catch attempts

Thank you share🌍🫠

Dont that increase the risk of failiure and dmg on the stages while landing ?

From Denmark. "Starship being catched"? Language skills, along with gender perception has plummeted lately.

Put the hot staging ring on the Starship and use it as landing legs.

Catched ? What?

Haha yeah right. Keep drinking the kool aid. Weren’t we supposed to be landing on the moon this year with starship? Instead they blow up and people cheer like idiots

This is the intermediate to long-term future: Starship will be caught mid-air.

Why not a landing gear, or maybe legs too? What or who is going to catch this vehicle on Mars eventually?

Blaming the FAA is just fucking stupid. The damn thing is incredibly unsafe. So unsafe that at their first flight attempt the flight termination system failed. This could have easily lead to meany deaths considering how bad the take-off was. Now SpaceX fanboys look for a scapegoat to blame for SpaceX utter incompetence.

Thousands of missions annually with starship???? They can't even get the bloody thing to orbit

6-8 launch for bring 150 tones stuff or 100 mans to moon

Audio and editing quality are both great, nicely done video!

Hire a copy editor.

Thks for being clear and explaining the basics.....People who are new to this need a simplicity hook for later get into the complex stuff

👍🚀

All the best ! 🤪

Geeze 2 weeks ago! get over it and move on,or at least move out of mommy's basement and get a life!
