Starship Launching in 9 Days!? But the Wet Dress Rehearsal Needs Repeating...
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- It’s likely the Starship's Flight 4 Wet Dress Rehearsal we saw last week wasn’t a full success, as SpaceX appear to be readying for another one ahead of Flight 4’s Launch. We also saw The first of six dedicated launches of SpaceX’s Starshield satellites for the National Reconnaissance Office, 46 more Starlink satellites made it to orbit, Electron conducted the first of two launches for NASA's PREFIRE mission, and the UK got one major step closer towards its first vertical rocket launch thanks to Germany's Rocket Factory Augsburg, there was a massive failure during a test of a Starship Raptor engine, and during a launch attempt from North Korea! All of this and so much more, enjoy!

I was thinking about an idea for a KSP video - playing the game in real time with an eye tracker so you can see what I am actually looking at when flying rockets. I'm guessing I basically never look at the "game screen" and purely look at the navball and KER. Would that be something you'd be interested in seeing?
Yeah sounds like a fun idea :)
Ik ksp2 kinda died but I'd like to see a comparison between ksp and 2. Just how much of a difference does the ksp2 UI really matter (having never played that game)
yeah would be cool ,but i thought ksp 2 was down?
Fun fun! Why not?
It would be interesting, but I’d find it more interesting if you got several different KSP UA-camrs to do the same thing, then compared. Maybe even a novice who’s not played the game much.
All flying a similar mission profile.

Hey matt Lowne keep up with the amazing content👍👍
10:53 Jeez, that's a low blow for ksp2...
It Still Hurts/
I love the way you're able to get more actual news into your reports while only taking half the time, plus making me and I am sure, others, laugh from time to time along the way.
Calling starlink starshields’s little brother implies that starshield is Big Brother lmao
If you really want to split hairs, Starship isn't fully reusable already as it is still in development. That will come in 1.0. Then you get variants in the form of paid DLCs like Lunar Starship, Cargo Starship, and Malibu Starship.
what is malibu starship?
@@duckvs.chipanddale585 probably a sun dress and floppy hat
Flippen enjoy the heck out of the content you produce. Especially the relaxed and often funny commentary + the very concise payload. Thank you.
Thanks for the update for us avid space travel watchers, you and others make it easier to understand for us non nerds ...
No views in 9 seconds bro has peaked
bro fell off
impossible
I really like ... i mean love how you also hive update about your ksp series :P Lets go MattLown Aerospace !
Love the PREFIRE mission names lol!
You should play Kcbaleoh
Where is the Black Arrow rocket that you filmed? I want to visit it.
Sorry to hear about ksp2; but also long live ksp1! ❤
Maybe have a play with Bargain Rocket Parts mod - However, it does mess with the tech tree, so I modded the mod to allow all parts, not just replace them 😊
Is “space this week” better than KSP2?
yes
That’s a low bar
It's still being made, so definitely
@@Trailmaker.damn.
this makes me wanna play ksp .... lol
Hope you get chance to go up to witness launch! Your Space News content means alot me. Its really appreciated!
Matt thanks for keeping us up dated it helps me get the new that’s out of this world.
I'd love to know what the brown puffs of smoke are coming from the top of the Chinese rockets
Keep the videos up, my favorite part of Mondays!
Hey Matt! Great video! Just curious…will OLM 2 include a CAA?(Crew Access Arm)
I doubt it. We years from any Crewed Starship launch anyways. They may not even have the interior layout and thus the crew hatch location finalized yet. Not to mention if the booster will really undergo some stretching before the final version.
True! But ya never know!
Love ur vids Matt.
Sounds like they’re going to do another WDR tomorrow then since they stacked. Excited for launch 4. Hopefully it survives reentry. I predict the booster will perform its tasks perfectly and the ship will either slam into the ocean or break up, but im hoping im wrong and both vehicles do a soft landing!
Great video! anxiously waiting for the 4th flight test 🚀
We know that when Musk says "3 to 4 weeks" that usually turns out to be 3 to 4 months, so if he says "10 days", we should expect it to be about a month.
For the booster, I believe that it was a selling point for 33 engines that if one for some reason shuts down the other on can take it's role. They had 6 engines failed to ignite, but there was 20 more in reserve. Why weren't they used instead? And I don't believe it was filter blockage that was the reason for failure. If there was the same problem in flight 2 and they took measures to solve it, then that problem repeated, they were probably looking in the wrong place. It looks as someone has an idee fixe about the reason of failures, but I don't want to accuse anybody over appearances. My candidate would be pipes or fittings bursting under acceleration - blockades with fuel would lead to engine stop working, not to an explosion. Anyway, no piece of equipment was retrieved for analysis, so all we have are conclusions based on telemetry.
And that raptor engine test explosion - if it was intentional, I believe SpaceX would hurry to tell us so. The silence on that part points the other way.
I hope you will be able to get to the RFA launch Matt.👍
Hello MattLowne can you please do a video on Blue Dog Design mod for ksp.
Im curious about those road closures. I wanna know why, when, where, all that. Is there somewhere I can go for more information?
One more space this week until flight 4
Ive been told to never say fireX again bc apparently its the "detonation suppression system"
I believe Chollima is pronounced Tsollima.
Space this week helping me to take my stupid 3-hour math lessons
R Click the relevent part --> adjust control authority ^_^
Great video. 😊
Just move to Juno New Origins
Fun fact:I've used mods to slam a payload so far into the kraken, it turned to noodles
I wonder why they want to stage separate the hot stage ring... I mean it cant be a weight issue.. so what is it?
The hot stage ring was never meant to be part of the booster (IFT-1 didn't have it after all), it was a retrofit.
The hot stage ring is actually quite heavy, which makes the booster top heavy, and may also mess with the aerodynamics.
In short, the booster is probably unstable when landing with the hot stage ring.
The V2 boosters appear to have a properly integrated hot stage section, so it should no longer be an issue.
@@lazarus2691 Ah - so that could have been the cause of the rapid maneuvering from the grid fins?
My reasoning was that - since the booster has the power to push Starship out into space, it has enough power to handle the weight of the hot stage ring.
Not considering that the super heavy was designed to land without it.
But it makes sense. thank you for taking your time to explain x)
Does it bother anyone else that the Saturn V with half the amount of first stage thrust as the star ship could put 140 tons of payload into orbit yet the first gen star ships are being down rated from 100 tons capacity to 50 tons and have barley been reaching sub orbital trajectories EMPTY
The Space Shuttle had about 90% of Saturn V's thrust, yet only had about 25 tons of payload (and the early flights with the standard weight tank could only do about 15 tons). Starship managing twice as much with about double the thrust is pretty par for the course. The simple fact is that making a rocket reusable comes with a significant performance penalty.
And although Starship didn't successfully land on this test flight, it still paid the mass penalty in terms of fuel reserved for landing, the heat shield, fins, etc.
However, it's worth noting that Starship can fly in an expendable configuration, in which case the current performance is around
WOW that video call looks like it was taken in 2007
Love your vids dude
Considering their track record, even if they manage to reach orbit I doubt it will survive reentry as the design seems fundamentally flawed.
Fundamentally flawed? How so?
@@TheEvilmooseofdoom they barely made it to LEO last time with a completely empty cargo hold, and the ship failed to even orient itself properly for reentry. The fins do not offer enough resistance to slow the fall. It will simply burn up again.
@@Froggsroxx remember SN15 ? that one obviously had enough air resistance...
@@Froggsroxx you realize they cut the engines early right? They turned them off while on a suborbital trajectory so in case there was a problem it wouldn't just be stuck in orbit
@@niox1920 pretty sure several engines just failed, as they've done every time they have launched.
10:48 how does he have those extra info on top right and top left in ksp 1?
A mod called Kerbal Engineer; it’s very handy!
@@billiam6398 I would say it's a mandatory mod for any KSP install, and the best and most useful mod out there.
Anyone know where I can find information like this real time Is there some kind of news feed or something that can inform me on space updates like these when they happen?
it's not authorative but look into "nextspaceflight"
Yo Matt pls do jool 5 speedrun
Lets gooo
Think Im going a bit mad but did anyone watch the live stream on SpaceX's youtube channel about 2 weeks ago were they did the countdown for starship 4, got to 40 seconds and then just cut the livestream to an ad for Elon and investing bitcoin with them for a limited time? The livestream was then taken down from their youtube channel. I know it wasnt an old livestream because their where only like 5 comments on it with the correct timestamp. Its also missing from my UA-cam History
yeah
Make a mig 41/PAK-DPM if I can do it you can to
Cool
Wooooo🎉
"This rocket will launch on the british isles"
Shouldnt it be "from the british isles"
Otherwise it sounds like RFA is launching thier rocket AT the isles, which i think would be a declaratiin of war?
This next launch is make or brake for space x, if they cant get this right there done
break, they're
i remember people saying that about IFT-1 all the was through IFT-3. what is diffrent now?
@@unitrader403 THE DELAYS TO HLS
What is the dark/black smoke coming from the nose of the Chinese rocket?
Evil
Slave labor @@fishbikehike
Space eggs launch 4
"successful flight" = successful gaslight
...?
Why am I always the person who gives the 90th like???
Matt stop ending your videos too ea

First!
I swear Elon Musk is the real life version of Iron Man
Iron Man didn’t start unhinged transphobic rants, and seemed to be a decent parent.
except for the wit, the actual engineering knowledge, being liked by the public, not going off on transphobic rants, being divorced, having your own children cut you out of your life, etc..
@@Lucas-po6mn Musk is pretty good at engineering (not iron man good, but nobody is), and iron man wasn't great at relationships, he only avoided divorce by getting married in his 40s, and dying in his 50s.
Iron man also wasn't liked by the public until 2008, then hated after 2015, then dead.
Musk was liked till about 2018, then progressively more hated.
Yes - Compare fantasy to reality...It makes you smarter.
He just signs checks.
ocean recover the ring like the fairings
Cheap to build.
@@TheMoneypresident the fairings are literally 2 million dollars each....the hot staging ring probably costs even more.
