This really gives an appreciation for the options that aerodynamic surfaces have over parachutes in low density atmospheres. Imagine trying to parachute nearly horizontally.
I love this, and think it's great of Austin to do! I've been using X-Plane since version 2.0 when it was still mostly an "engineering tool" rather than a "game-like flight simulator", back when I was an Aerospace Engineering student. (It was $350!)

Rats, don't have an iPad or iPhone. I do have X-plane so maybe someday a model will appear. I met Austin years ago when I was working at Aviation Challenge and he was doing the F-15 sims. If you search youtube for him you'll see how aviation crazy he is and a brilliant talent at so many interests.

Starship fatal aerodynamic flaw and solution Is there an unrecoverable orientation where the starship has more than 90 degrees pitch, causing the weight of propellent to slosh to the bottom of the tanks which in turn shifts the center of mass to the bottom, Then while the starship slows down the nose pitches up from 100 degrees up to 180 degrees because the large aerodynamic force on the body is located above the center of mass. This torques the starship to bottom end first. The lift forces on the fuselage could overpower forces applied by the flaps to flip the nose forward because the center of mass location is lower than the total aerodynamic forces regardless of flap settings. This happened to a cargo plane leaving Vietnam crammed full of people fleeing Saigon. The people were not in seats and all of them fell to the tail of the plane, making it tail heavy and impossible to get the nose pitch down. It would make sense aerodynamically to relocate the bottom flaps to attach on the leeward side of the starship. This would prevent aerodynamic forces from ever locking starship into the wrong orientation, plus keep the flap hinge out of the hot blast of reentry.
Yeah I was also wondering if moving the flaps toward the leeward side would solve the issue that Elon mentioned already (protecting the hinges) plus the bonus aero features you mentioned. Im curious to see if that will be an update during the coming presentation

Wow.. I haven’t played x-plane in years those were expensive apps way back when. Cool vid ..thanks for bringing attention to one my fav apps of yesteryear .. on my way to the App Store right now ! Also, thanks for the superchat support on NSF today 🙏
A minor correction: X-Plane is a flight simulator, not a game. Fork over the cash for the licensing dongle and the right hardware peripherals and it counts for the FAA. (edit: specifically the titular X-Plane, not the mobile products)
Actually, the backflip in the 15 km flight is exactly the maneuver that will be done. The natural pressure and lift center of starship make it want to naturally go in belly in the airstream when not under thrust!
"We're expecting the real thing to happen sometime in December." Earliest date is in a couple days, on Friday, the 4th. Hopefully it doesn't scrub. IIRC, it's SN8 doing the 15KM hop with the bellyflop maneuver, if it fails, which it only has an estimated 30% success rate, SN9 is either completed or near completion, with SN10 right behind it with SN11 and SN12 right around the corner, from what I've heard. Earliest launch windows permitting, and given the manufacturing progress, I wouldn't be surprised if we might see a second hop very soon, whether or not SN8 fails.
That is awesome! I had X-Plane for either my G3 or G5 iMac back in the day. I still have my CH rudder pedals and yoke on a shelf in the attic. I wonder if they still work...
I‘ve had a few experiences in X-Plane mobile with spaceflight. It seems, the 737 isn‘t aerodynamicaly stable at hypersonic speeds high in the atmosphere. On the other hand, if you start at 0m/s very high up, it will reenter just fine.
Uncomfortable yes, but not as deadly as lithobreaking, especially if your properly strapped in, but yeah, 3~4.5 G would be greatly preferred for colonists who aren't trained like a fighter pilot, a "quick" astronaut crash course probably would need to be worked out for Colonists
@@k1dicarus When the G forces get THAT high you still need to know what breathing exercises and such to do to keep from passing out.... though the Starship is doing all the flying so it's mostly a "preffer not to pass out" rather than a "don't dare pass out" kinda thing
Pretty sure it's not the actual Starship entry profile though (at least from what I've seen online) Looks like it starts with a much lower periapsis and Scott is trying to constantly pull up. Compared to that, Starship is supposed to pass much higher in the atmosphere while pulling down until it's suborbital, then pull up when its orbital velocity is too low to keep its altitude.
I have looked at a lot of videos about colonizing the moon & Mars. And I haven't found any with my same ideas. I think we should set up a moon colony on earth. We should have inflatable domes, which we cover with 3D printers with simulated moon mortar. The domes should be connected to each other by inflatable tunnels covered with simulated moon mortar. There should be living quarters, hydroponic green houses, gardens with garden soil for recreational gardening, a 5 acre pasture with one inch of garden soil and one inch of grass turf, a park with artificial turf and with small sections of real grass turf, and maybe even a very small zoo. All the domes will have plastic floors so no water is lost. Condensation forming on the ceilings will be drained into the water supply. All the domes will be blown up with compressed air from earth and will have a refresh system, which will refresh the air and maintain the air pressure. Humidity, Temperature will be maintained by humidifiers, heaters, fans and coolers. Light will be provided by multi-color LEDs, mostly white. Power will be supplied at first by solar power, and later by nuclear or fusion power. All water will be re-cycled, almost zero loss of water. There will be a bull, a cow, two sheep, and two goats, two chickens, two turkeys, two fish, and two rabbits. There will also be pets, two dogs, two cats, two bunnies, etc. (and maybe a small zoo) All of this will be set up by astronauts and robots before the colonist arrive. The first colonist will be 5 fathers and 5 mothers, and 90 babies. The parents will be good parents, gardeners, farmers, zoo keepers, teachers, etc.. During the first two years an exact duplicate facility will be built on the moon. When the babies are two years old, they will move to the moon and live on the moon. Or if it is proven that they will be too young to travel to the moon than the facility on earth will be added to, to accommodate 10 more parents and 90 more babies. The two year olds would move into the new addition. Every two years the facility will be either added to, or 100 people will move to the moon. This plan will allow the kids to grow up in the isolation of the colony, and will make it easier for them to live in the isolation of the colony on the moon. And will allow them to grow up on the moon and be better able to adjust to the lower gravity on the moon, although some artificial gravity maybe eventually provided. This artificial gravity will especially be good for the parents. The kids will have everything in the facility to keep them occupied and entertained. Also they could have some books, movies, games, etc., especially adapted for them, being careful not to give them anything that would make them feel isolated. After 20 years there could be 2000 people living on the moon, most of whom grew up on the moon. This program could be speeded up so in 20 years there could be 4000, 6000, or 8000 people living on the moon. This program could be simultaneously done to colonize Mars so we could have 2000 people on the Moon and Mars at the same time. For the moon we could send supplies every month, but for Mars we could only send supplies every 26 months. So I suggest we send 10, 20, or 30 rockets to Mars every 26 months all at the same time. We could have several refueling stations along the way to mars and orbiting mars so rockets could refuel along the way to mars and right before landing on mars so the empty rocket would have enough fuel to take off again, refuel in space and return to Earth. Eventually the colonist could grow trees, bamboo, and other plants for raw materials that could be used for making things. Eventually the moon and Mars could export minerals or small expensive items that were assembled on the moon or Mars, like jewelry, iphones, iwatches, etc. Or grown on the moon like caviar, marijuana, etc. What do you think ? :-)
Knowing what the raptors do to martyte reinforced concrete, I’d like to see these landing simulations give an accurate treatment of raptor thrust impingement on earth, moon and Mars surfaces.
what's cool is the only addition he would have had too make to the X-plane code is the differential dihedral for the wing surfaces and a control system to run them.
Yup! You got it! (That, and all the insane new MARS data that NASA has... the compression I went through to get THE ENTIRE PLANET MARS ON YOUR PHONE was rather incredible... Apple has a compression that gets Orthophotos down to ONE SIXTEENTH the size they would normally be with an un-compressed image... THAT'S the secret that let me deliver the entire planet Mars...

@@MarkoDash NOT to desktop X-Plane! Why? Because the desktop X-Plane is SOOOOOOOO integrated with airports, NAVAIDs, Earth WEATHER, scenery buildings.. it goes on and on!!!! SO it is NOT feasible. BUUUUUUT, a desktop version of X-Plane starship, that is my mobile code ported to desktop? THAT could be feasible... but would hardly be any BETTER than the mobile version we have now, sooooo..... not a huge point in doing it. The scenery we have now is 4-gig... WHICH IS THE EXACT LIMIT OF THE APP STORE, AND THE EXACT MAX RES OF IMAGERY WE HAVE FROM NASA! An AMAZING coincidence that we hit BOTH limits at the SAME size!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Apple has a compression that gets Orthophotos down to ONE SIXTEENTH the size they would normally be with an un-compressed image... THAT'S the secret that let me deliver the entire planet Mars... ON YOUR PHONE. That hyper-compression is what made it possible... and the billions of dollars and millions of man-hours required to send probes to Mars to collect the data, of course!)
@@austinmeyer any plans to re-add mars to the full version then?
@@MarkoDash NOT to desktop X-Plane! Why? Because the desktop X-Plane is SOOOOOOOO integrated with airports, NAVAIDs, Earth WEATHER, scenery buildings.. it goes on and on!!!! SO it is NOT feasible. BUUUUUUT, a desktop version of X-Plane starship, that is my mobile code ported to desktop? THAT could be feasible... but would hardly be any BETTER than the mobile version we have now, sooooo..... not a huge point in doing it. The scenery we have now is 4-gig... WHICH IS THE EXACT LIMIT OF THE APP STORE, AND THE EXACT MAX RES OF IMAGERY WE HAVE FROM NASA! An AMAZING coincidence that we hit BOTH limits at the SAME size!!!!!!!!!!!!! Going to DESKTOP version of this sim would NOT look much better... because even though the 4-gig limit of the app store goes away, we are pretty much right at the limit of res available from NASA! So the desktop version would not look much better.
I'm waiting for a capsule simulator that will actually teach me how to fly a real Starship or Dragon capsule. When they make one I will buy it instantly. SpaceX could solve some training this way.
Certainly looks like the mobile versions of X-Plane.
Cuz it is
Max graphical settings on X-Plane Mobile look a lot better than this
China must be loving this
"You know you wanna" . Go Starship!
Lets just say.....WOW and thanks!!!!
Very cool.
When flying the Cessna in x-plane, I always have the Austin bobble head on the dash
Flight sim mode in Google Earth lets you fly on Mars. Not a heck of a lot of atmospheric lift, though, especially if you try to fly over Olympus Mons.
Incredible. I wonder if A.I. will have an important role when mars landing maneuvers occur.
oh god, it's so sick.
lol you did good Scott....Thanks
good job
nice 👍 ... maybe they should give you the controls of starship for maiden flight :D
OMG THANK YOU!
A few more practice runs and I would trust you landing a starship I was on board 😁
Thanks for the head's up, Scott. Downloading it now. Fly safe everybody!
I have about nine hours of free fall time, 1368 jumps and i can relate to moving my arms and legs to achieve the same attitude changes.
10:14 Whoa, 7.7 G's?!
Nice.
