No. This is what happens when you remove critical thinking processes, and even engineers get caught up in pseudoscience unicorns and fairy dust. Chemical rockets will NEVER replace airplanes as a safe mode of transportation.
@NovaComputing -The average commercial jet can operate safely over 30,000 pressurized cycles. Chemical rockets explode, on the average,of every 200 launches. Care to guess why that is?
Anyone who thinks business travelers are going to endure gut wrenching G forces, Max Q vibrations, and a huge risk of burning up,on re-entry into earth's atmosphere, (not to mention an extremely high failure rate on the launch pad while loading fuel), just for the farcical promise of a 30 minute intercontinental trip, is a damn fool.

Yeah it's ridiculous. 99.999% of all companies do nothing to deal with the urgent problems here on earth. In fact most of them are escalating the problems. Why should a man who through Tesla and Solar City is trying to make clean energy practical and affordable be under so much scrutiny because he also happens to wanna send people to Mars? What has he done that justifies him being held to such radically higher standards than any other CEO?
muchograndeyolatengo because we have to go to Mars. Better chance of survival. Also, when the earth is too hot to live, Mars will be our home. We have to get started sometime. Better do it now
Cause life is art hellooo, and it can solve many problems on earth cause it came from the earth, and from the skies, and..... Science is expensive and we have sooo many poor people while wasting so much at the same time. Anyway, I can understand why you are asking that
SavatageIsMyReligion technically speaking, life is not art. It's science. And where do you think science comes from? It's observation of nature. So your argument is invalid.
@@TCV12 I know a bit about it, Ive taken astrophysics classes and have played a lot of ksp. Do you? Jet engines are much much much more efficient than rocket engines. You can run the numbers, I will be right.
@@TCV12 where are your arguments apart from attacking me? Dreamliners can carry 3x more than musk's dubious 100 person claims while burning much much less fuel. Planes don't need to carry oxidiser, which is means more weight for the rocket to push. Jet engine isps are like 6000 while rockets are less than 600 ie 10x more efficient
@@TCV12 Rockets are super inefficient (only 1-2% is payload) and extremely dangerous, but simply a necessity to bring stuff into space. If they could fly a normal plane into space, NO ONE would be using rockets to transport people. Yet Musk claims he will be using rockets to fly people around the globe like airplanes and that it will all work out great. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand how dumb this idea is.
@@user-wn1jf7pg6x Yes, they do exist. Some people troll and act to be a flat earther just to spark a discussion, so you need to be aware of that. There are actual people who believe the Earth is flat and is passionate about it, but most flat-earthers I've seen just insults people when proven wrong.
Do you imagine the contamination on the planet generated by dozens of those being deployed each day? Space X is already burning lots of fossil fuels... By the way, no one talks about the gulf of mexico, even here in mexico no one seems to care about the radioactive scraps of starship that landed there, it is kind of sad.
The energy and forces that rockets have to endure are so extreme it won't for a very long time even remotely be a form of travel nearly as safe as wingsuits. It's simply physics.
But 10x worse yet people don't see it yet, don't worry. One lie leads to another lie and then another. Soon they'll have too much lies to cover and then they'll topple down. I give them till 2030
This is one of the dumbest ideas I've ever seen... Maybe in 100+ years if there's some kind of breakthrough in rocket technology. Present day this isn't even close to feasible. Modern day rockets have about a 95% success rate, so about 5% of the time they explode in a spectacular fashion... And she wants 10X more being used than airplanes, that's 10's of failures a day and everybody on them dead... Rockets would need to be made thousands upon thousands of times safer and we don't nearly have the technology to do that at the moment, the materials and fuel don't currently exist. I'd worry about making them before putting forward these grand ideas... That safety record has barely changed in about 50 years, it turns out accelerating a huge rocket to about 7 miles a second is incredibly difficult and dangerous... Who'd have thought? Trying to make that safe for passengers? Get real! People are often scared of flying on a plane, I'd scale that fear up about 1000X getting in a rocket... Also the vast majority of a space rocket is allocated to fuel, so it leaves very little room for cargo... It's a terrible idea. This is from the company with the owner of Tesla, who claims to be looking to a greener future, whilst recommending rocket ships instead of airplanes and 10X as many... The mind boggles...
@@RichMiniön-r2m The falcon rocket is impressive I don't dispute that, but it's not nearly impressive as it needs to be to make this venture work, not even close, nor is it anything particularly new... As I said the martials and fuel doesn't currently exist to make something like that work. 1-5% failure rate... With planes, over a 10 year period 0.6 fatal accidents happened per one million flights, rather than 1-5 out of 100 with rockets... That's how many orders of magnitude rockets need to be made safer for this idea... It's a pipe dream at best and delusional at worst. Rockets are basically a controlled explosion used for propulsion, making that safe is incredibly challenging, which is why nothing's really changed in over 50 years in terms of safety. They're launching from a starship? Care to elaborate on how that's going to work?
Exactly. They're spewing absolute bullshit and people are buying it. Tesla vehicles aren't any better for the environment, with unfixable cars and toxic batteries. Starlink?

Exactly, I just hope this sham is revealed soon. The starlink is basically the worst ways anyone could provide internet to the world, and the world is celebrating it.
To be honest her "why" of exploration is kinda a bad reason. Building "Planet Crackers" like in Dead Space and bring billions of tons of materials back to Earth from the Main Asteroid belt or other sources would be the main reason. People are for to greedy and infintal to react the way you need them to for something like this be give a "for a better world" sorta answer. Keep it more pragmatic so more people will invest in it.

Of course that's her top priority.. would you buy a car when you know there's a high chance of dying in it? And selling the rockets is necessary to succeed in their vision. It's literally their businessmodel.
PNathan itz over your head...cant discuss w ppl like u who think theyre bright but not. u practically made a baseless assumption... my guess is that it is more likely that not that safety is NOT her TOP priority (ie, not her #1 priority). the Co will of course say to the public that safety is their top priority but in reality it will likely be just one of their priorities. but hey, this is just my opinion. my point was specifically on how she responded to that question. try thinking about it AGAIN and dont be so naive

We choose to go to Mars. We choose to go to Mars in next decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.
No Name I think manned missions will have to start in the 2030’s, but unmanned missions will hopefully and likely start earlier!! And not like rover missions, but missions to send supplies or something. To test all the systems for deep space!
Its just take 8.30 min to reach earth orbit aka space. And 90 min to take complete one orbit with speed 17500 miles/hr as ISS moving... So its quite possible
BioQuickie - It really is. These people fail to realize the solutions to alot of major problems here are the same solutions Mars needs. A Mars program gives us immediate incentive to find these solutions.
Agreed. People fail to realize that one of the potential benefits of interplanetary travel is that resources that are scarce on earth might just be available on other planets. Take for instance Titan, a moon of Saturn. It has an atmosphere of methane a resource that is on the decline on Earth. Also it is to be noted that in order to reach a point where we can make inter planetary travel commercially viable we need to test. Sure the results that arise by testing launches may not be fruitful but the lessons learned may be and will make future launches better hopefully. The same applied to the development of cars and airplanes. So I don't see any excuse for rockets.

You make the fuel (methane and oxygen) from the atmosphere (carbon dioxide and water) with (solar) electricity. The rocket burns the fuel, producing CO2 and water. No fossil fuels required.
Technically, she isn't wrong. But... You don't get to pick when to take off. You don't get to pick where to take off. You don't get to pick where to land. You spend several days preparing for the flight. The weather must be absolutely perfect. Your flight will be rescheduled several times at the last second.

It'll probably only be astronauts and other scientists living there for the first decade or so. Lots of dangers in everyday life and lots of infrastructure needs to be set up in those settings for a relatively stable life. Industrial companies will come eventually and some time after that, it'll be feasible for average people to go there. But it'll still be with massive compromises: no ocean, no outdoor nature, small living quarters, risky being on the surface and/or limited freedom of travel. Earth will remain a paradise in comparison for at least a hundred years. And even then, only a global cataclysm would make Mars better overall.

@Andrew Brent Point is she didn't make a big deal out of the fact she was a women, because that wasn't important. Modern extreme "feminists" tend to be the people pushing for positive discrimination, blaming the patriarchy for everything, publicly expressing a hatred for men, etc. This is of course a vast minority, but it's kinda tainted the word a little.
I think you're confusing things here. Feminist activism is important. If not for these feminist activists u despise, women like Gwynne would not have ever allowed to pursue their dreams.
She doesn't have to be some man-hating crazy feminist to be where she is...The real work in western counties was done long ago...This feminism nowadays is toxic, they even attack other women...They talk about toxic masculinity, they should stop and look in the mirror as they are corrosive to anyone who disagrees.
Oh sure, I would just love to have a 1/100 chance of dying every time I wanted to go overseas. The global airline industry transports 3 billion people each year, that means 30,000,000 could die given the record of rocket simply blowing up now and then. This is an extremely costly and risky way to fly people across the globe when the longest commercial flight is only 17.5 hours. Are people really this desperate for faster flights when they are already so short? Get real, this is never going to happen.
The exuberance that radiates from her is just 'out of this world' All one can see is an extremely motivated engineer who is super proud of what she is doing. No wonder SpaceX achieves all these seemingly impossible targets. The earth is forever indebted to these amazing scientists and engineers at SpaceX. Go SpaceX go.

People riding rockets to get to other places on earth is ridiculous at best. For one they are still rockets and are much more dangerous than planes, to fire up one of these huge rockets you have to be in the middle of no where on way out at sea. Takes time to get that far out and back again. We have super sonic planes and possibly even hypersonic planes in the works. Lastly, the fuel it takes to shoot a rocket off is on a whole different level. That fuel is expensive and it still is burning co2. They are methane rockets. I can understand putting people in space or going to the moon or Mars, but rockets are not a viable options to earth to earth. It’s dumb to think this way, when there are much better solutions.

Mmmmmmm...... Let's just forget that rockets are take incredible amounts of fuel and will always sustain some amount of damage. While hyperloop is quite a dream, it's still an possibility in future, but will require massive investments in infrastructure and technology itself. It's not nearly good enough to compete with planes be it in safety or speed. I really like SpaceX and Tesla, but you can often find company saying quite a ridiculous stuff. With rockets you just can't get around massive amount of fuel you need to lift the thing and forces involved that will damage the rocket. Lets not forget, faster you want to go, more fuel it takes, and you need to propel that fuel on top of cargo. It's waste of money and massively harmful to our planet if it became more mainstream. And due to forces involved, rockets will always have quite an elevated degree of danger. I'm actually hopeful that at some point we will get long distance travel by some sort of vacuum tube technology, but using rockets is honestly stupid idea. At least you can power anything on ground with green energy. I mean we can do it, but it's like plane emissions x100 and you will need to replace parts every flight. Planes are also huge fuel hogs, but at least planes are using aerodynamics to keep the craft in air, rocket on other hands is essentially working against atmosphere and gravity head on. Thing is, you just can't get around rocket equation and gravity.
"At least you can power anything on ground with green energy." Actually Starship is also meant to be powered with green energy, it is necessary. Some other rockets alrady are using hydrogen, which easily can be produced with clean energy (and only water came from the exhaust). But it has other practical disadvantages, so Space X decided to use liquid methane. It also burns clean, and you can produce it via electricity and CO2. Starship mainly was invented for going to Mars, and one requeiremnt for such a mission is, that they can produce the fuel for the way back on Mars by using solar energy. However, I also think it is a stupid idea to use big rockets for earth-to-earth-travel :-)
Luckily 1000's of tons of rocket fuel for dozens of trips on a single day for just one ship is probably very cheap and good for the environment. Sounds like a cheaper and more sustainable method then those filthy expensive airplanes that take forever to get somewhere, right?
@@gagarinone I have no idea how is it related to flatearthers, but tell me: if it isn't a bullshit, so how will the intensity of the flight affect the cost of single rocket launch, so the ticket will cost the same as commercial long haul flight ticket?

Liam Dunphy he is the head engineer he isn’t just a businessman at heart he is an engineer and spends around a hundred hours weekly on doing what he loves (engineering) and carrying out his dreams
Nonsense , at what cost . The fuel payload is so damn expensive it won't be practical . As you know it costs $28 million to just go up into upper atmosphere with blue origin and float for 3 minutes. Now imagine actually getting to another continent.
Using their rockets to go from New York to Shanghai reminds me of the Concorde. It was a brilliant idea that couldn't be economized into a lasting reality.
Not to mention the Concorde didn't have to be treated like a massive bomb when it was fueled and ready to fly. If people think that the on/off boarding process for one of these rockets wont be hours on hours, they have never seen a rocket prep for flight. Especially when you cant just launch one in the middle of your city.
The problem with a supersonic aircraft is that it has to push its way through the atmosphere for the entire flight. A suborbital vehicle just has to climb up above the atmosphere, then it is much easier to accelerate. It only has to consume propellant as it is doing that, and then again when it lands. It does not have to push itself through the air for the entire trip.
Yeah, it’s totally impracticable. First they won’t be permitted to launch. Second boarding will be very difficult and slow. 3rd the landing will be extremely dangerous.
Suborbital travel between different parts of Earth is far from a new idea but in a world where even sub sonic airliners are being criticized for their fuel use, a rocket doesn't sound like a very good idea. From my home in the North of England it is possible to travel to London by car and train, in the morning, and then fly to California arriving in time for dinner. Very few people need to travel faster than that.
TCV12 what does it cost to put 1 person in low orbital space? The amount of supplies and infrastructure required to achieve Musks BS is beyond resources even the current administration can supply. It’s all a scam. All part of the need for some to believe in something.
time is precious for the privileged few.For us normal people, once BFR comes, expect business class to be extinct.Premium economy and economy will be the new norm.
16:52 “Within a decade.” We’re four years away from that decade mark. Starship has yet to achieve orbit with an empty payload, has yet to return a booster intact, and has yet to successfully re-enter. There is absolutely no way it will be flying ordinary passengers to terrestrial destinations in 4 years. Just the safety certification alone is likely a decade away from first getting it working in space, and we haven’t even reached that milestone yet.

@@TCV12 Rockets are super inefficient (only 1-2% is payload) and extremely dangerous, but simply a necessity to bring stuff into space.
If they could fly a normal plane into space, NO ONE would be using rockets to transport people.
Yet Musk claims he will be using rockets to fly people around the globe like airplanes and that it will all work out great.
You don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand how dumb this idea is.

just a simple question, do flat earthers exist? I mean, I really want to talk to them.
@@user-wn1jf7pg6x Yes, they do exist. Some people troll and act to be a flat earther just to spark a discussion, so you need to be aware of that. There are actual people who believe the Earth is flat and is passionate about it, but most flat-earthers I've seen just insults people when proven wrong.
Given the evens this week, doesn't look like that timetable is going to hold up. What a surprise...
Do you imagine the contamination on the planet generated by dozens of those being deployed each day?
Space X is already burning lots of fossil fuels... By the way, no one talks about the gulf of mexico, even here in mexico no one seems to care about the radioactive scraps of starship that landed there, it is kind of sad.
Is this really practical? I've heard that this is not by this scientist of youtube that goes by the username of Thunderf00t.
The energy and forces that rockets have to endure are so extreme it won't for a very long time even remotely be a form of travel nearly as safe as wingsuits. It's simply physics.
She reminds me of Elizabeth Holmes...
But 10x worse yet people don't see it yet, don't worry. One lie leads to another lie and then another. Soon they'll have too much lies to cover and then they'll topple down. I give them till 2030
This is one of the dumbest ideas I've ever seen... Maybe in 100+ years if there's some kind of breakthrough in rocket technology. Present day this isn't even close to feasible.
Modern day rockets have about a 95% success rate, so about 5% of the time they explode in a spectacular fashion... And she wants 10X more being used than airplanes, that's 10's of failures a day and everybody on them dead... Rockets would need to be made thousands upon thousands of times safer and we don't nearly have the technology to do that at the moment, the materials and fuel don't currently exist. I'd worry about making them before putting forward these grand ideas...
That safety record has barely changed in about 50 years, it turns out accelerating a huge rocket to about 7 miles a second is incredibly difficult and dangerous... Who'd have thought? Trying to make that safe for passengers? Get real! People are often scared of flying on a plane, I'd scale that fear up about 1000X getting in a rocket...
Also the vast majority of a space rocket is allocated to fuel, so it leaves very little room for cargo... It's a terrible idea.
This is from the company with the owner of Tesla, who claims to be looking to a greener future, whilst recommending rocket ships instead of airplanes and 10X as many... The mind boggles...
thats why its launching from a starship.. and this is from the creators of the falcon rockets dont forget that
@@RichMiniön-r2m The falcon rocket is impressive I don't dispute that, but it's not nearly impressive as it needs to be to make this venture work, not even close, nor is it anything particularly new... As I said the martials and fuel doesn't currently exist to make something like that work.
1-5% failure rate...
With planes, over a 10 year period 0.6 fatal accidents happened per one million flights, rather than 1-5 out of 100 with rockets... That's how many orders of magnitude rockets need to be made safer for this idea... It's a pipe dream at best and delusional at worst.
Rockets are basically a controlled explosion used for propulsion, making that safe is incredibly challenging, which is why nothing's really changed in over 50 years in terms of safety.
They're launching from a starship? Care to elaborate on how that's going to work?
Exactly. They're spewing absolute bullshit and people are buying it. Tesla vehicles aren't any better for the environment, with unfixable cars and toxic batteries. Starlink? The worst plan to provide internet to the world. Boring company? The best way to scam govt by selling them "how to solve traffic"
Absolutely preposterous idea.

To be honest her "why" of exploration is kinda a bad reason. Building "Planet Crackers" like in Dead Space and bring billions of tons of materials back to Earth from the Main Asteroid belt or other sources would be the main reason. People are for to greedy and infintal to react the way you need them to for something like this be give a "for a better world" sorta answer. Keep it more pragmatic so more people will invest in it.
Visions of a true leader
@@parker469aSpaceX isn't in it for them to make money. They make money to make Elon's dream to come true. You need money to R&D, and to build rockets. He isn't a typical businessman. He could charge NASA, Air Force, and commercial customers almost up to double their launch cost, but they don't. They give fair value for the rocket launches of only 62- 120 million vs ULA's 220 - over 400 million dollars per launch.
No one talking about the interviewer, he did an amazing job.
Very deserved compliment to him.
Really gave her a platform to speak.
He didn't interrupt like I see so many interviewers do to Elon lol. I commend him on this.
That’s why he’s the founder of Ted
Loved the part where he forced his limited vision and self excuses to get her get the applaused by saying "it will definitly happen". He pretty much gets the burden of being anoying by saying this, for her to be on the spotlight. This is amazing communication here, he is good.
He isn’t my favorite.
It will never happen.
Not from these clowns.
It officially is Big Fucking Rocket. Falcon is just used to censor the name.

I wonder if they're considering the name "BAMF Truck." They already got the Models S,3,X. Someone's gotta go there and ask who's in charge of product nomenclature and push for "BAMF Truck."
No!!! Elon is a fan of Starwar.

The Panacea 2:20 she states to sell rockets, "it's all about relationships and making a connection with these customers [NASA]..."?#%*? so itz not about the quality/efficiency/tech advances/SAFETY/etc??! she gives me a feeling that at least one of her TRUE top priorities is not the safety of future passengers
Of course that's her top priority.. would you buy a car when you know there's a high chance of dying in it? And selling the rockets is necessary to succeed in their vision. It's literally their businessmodel.
PNathan itz over your head...cant discuss w ppl like u who think theyre bright but not.
u practically made a baseless assumption... my guess is that it is more likely that not that safety is NOT her TOP priority (ie, not her #1 priority). the Co will of course say to the public that safety is their top priority but in reality it will likely be just one of their priorities. but hey, this is just my opinion. my point was specifically on how she responded to that question. try thinking about it AGAIN and dont be so naive

We choose to go to Mars. We choose to go to Mars in next decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.

The argument that there are problems on earth so we shouldn't go to Mars is so ignorant and sort sighted.
BioQuickie - It really is. These people fail to realize the solutions to alot of major problems here are the same solutions Mars needs. A Mars program gives us immediate incentive to find these solutions.
Agreed. People fail to realize that one of the potential benefits of interplanetary travel is that resources that are scarce on earth might just be available on other planets. Take for instance Titan, a moon of Saturn. It has an atmosphere of methane a resource that is on the decline on Earth. Also it is to be noted that in order to reach a point where we can make inter planetary travel commercially viable we need to test. Sure the results that arise by testing launches may not be fruitful but the lessons learned may be and will make future launches better hopefully. The same applied to the development of cars and airplanes. So I don't see any excuse for rockets.
I feel like SpaceX will become MCRN in the expanse. and I'd join in a heartbeat
So sort sighted..
Especially when one of the reasons why we should go to Mars is BECAUSE of some of the problems on Earth!

Fueling a massive rocket with passengers aboard right before a potentially weather-delayed launch issues
Launch sites far away from cities (due to noise and danger) issues

It'll probably only be astronauts and other scientists living there for the first decade or so. Lots of dangers in everyday life and lots of infrastructure needs to be set up in those settings for a relatively stable life. Industrial companies will come eventually and some time after that, it'll be feasible for average people to go there. But it'll still be with massive compromises: no ocean, no outdoor nature, small living quarters, risky being on the surface and/or limited freedom of travel. Earth will remain a paradise in comparison for at least a hundred years. And even then, only a global cataclysm would make Mars better overall.

People riding rockets to get to other places on earth is ridiculous at best. For one they are still rockets and are much more dangerous than planes, to fire up one of these huge rockets you have to be in the middle of no where on way out at sea. Takes time to get that far out and back again. We have super sonic planes and possibly even hypersonic planes in the works. Lastly, the fuel it takes to shoot a rocket off is on a whole different level. That fuel is expensive and it still is burning co2. They are methane rockets. I can understand putting people in space or going to the moon or Mars, but rockets are not a viable options to earth to earth. It’s dumb to think this way, when there are much better solutions.

Mmmmmmm...... Let's just forget that rockets are take incredible amounts of fuel and will always sustain some amount of damage. While hyperloop is quite a dream, it's still an possibility in future, but will require massive investments in infrastructure and technology itself. It's not nearly good enough to compete with planes be it in safety or speed. I really like SpaceX and Tesla, but you can often find company saying quite a ridiculous stuff.
With rockets you just can't get around massive amount of fuel you need to lift the thing and forces involved that will damage the rocket. Lets not forget, faster you want to go, more fuel it takes, and you need to propel that fuel on top of cargo. It's waste of money and massively harmful to our planet if it became more mainstream. And due to forces involved, rockets will always have quite an elevated degree of danger.
I'm actually hopeful that at some point we will get long distance travel by some sort of vacuum tube technology, but using rockets is honestly stupid idea. At least you can power anything on ground with green energy. I mean we can do it, but it's like plane emissions x100 and you will need to replace parts every flight. Planes are also huge fuel hogs, but at least planes are using aerodynamics to keep the craft in air, rocket on other hands is essentially working against atmosphere and gravity head on.
Thing is, you just can't get around rocket equation and gravity.
"At least you can power anything on ground with green energy."
Actually Starship is also meant to be powered with green energy, it is necessary. Some other rockets alrady are using hydrogen, which easily can be produced with clean energy (and only water came from the exhaust). But it has other practical disadvantages, so Space X decided to use liquid methane. It also burns clean, and you can produce it via electricity and CO2. Starship mainly was invented for going to Mars, and one requeiremnt for such a mission is, that they can produce the fuel for the way back on Mars by using solar energy.
However, I also think it is a stupid idea to use big rockets for earth-to-earth-travel :-)
Luckily 1000's of tons of rocket fuel for dozens of trips on a single day for just one ship is probably very cheap and good for the environment.
Sounds like a cheaper and more sustainable method then those filthy expensive airplanes that take forever to get somewhere, right?
Is there anyone in the comments to realise how bullshit this idea is?
Don't make em disappoint early. The bigger are expectations, the harder they falls
This is not a forum for flatearthers!
@@gagarinone I have no idea how is it related to flatearthers, but tell me: if it isn't a bullshit, so how will the intensity of the flight affect the cost of single rocket launch, so the ticket will cost the same as commercial long haul flight ticket?
You're not alone, mate, this whole rocket plane idea was pretty dumb
She's the best for Spacex. Proof that women can do it also.
Jacques Gunville Yeh, women who want to know how a car works when they are teenagers, not an interest most women share. But of course if the interest is there, then they can definitely do it well.
Jacques Gunville your thoughts about women lacking in this world can make u miss the more critical points. dont be distracted
joapps Wath make you think that i mist it. Are you telepath?
Jacques Gunville Your comment. youre not that bright are u? a president of a Co should always represent the Co in the best manner possible....esp on a ted talk, no? U absolutely praise her which makes me question your judgement. understand now?
joapps You realy realy hate women don't you? You see black where there is none.
I give Elon and Gwynne until 2030 to be exposed as cons. When they delay Mars again in 2026 I bet at least even the worst of fans will start to doubt them, and by 2028 I'll be surprised if people don't start treating them like Elizabeth Holmes. It's just a matter of time, they better start packing to retreat to an island or something.
A Professional Scam under the guise of a company. Great job Gwynne Shotwell! you sold them good.
You just wait 8 years.
@@user-RCST Lol They'll scrap the idea in 4
This will never happen. It's a scam. It's so dumb to think this is possible.
People said the same thing about planes
And when this happens are going to complain about something else.
@@jackwhitlock1 People also said the same about brazenly stupid fucking bullshit hocked to gullible dupes.
elon= thinker/planner
gwynne= executor
perfect match btw
She's the team leader, he's the chief engineer.
She manages the relationships with private companies and government leaders. She is in charge of sales and maintaining those relationships. She does a great job at it, too. All while knowing the ins and out of the rocket etc... great fit
TodayPerson no he isn’t he is the ceo and designer he isn’t an engineer
@@liamdunphy7496 he is lead engineer
Liam Dunphy he is the head engineer he isn’t just a businessman at heart he is an engineer and spends around a hundred hours weekly on doing what he loves (engineering) and carrying out his dreams
Nonsense , at what cost . The fuel payload is so damn expensive it won't be practical . As you know it costs $28 million to just go up into upper atmosphere with blue origin and float for 3 minutes. Now imagine actually getting to another continent.
Using their rockets to go from New York to Shanghai reminds me of the Concorde. It was a brilliant idea that couldn't be economized into a lasting reality.
Not to mention the Concorde didn't have to be treated like a massive bomb when it was fueled and ready to fly. If people think that the on/off boarding process for one of these rockets wont be hours on hours, they have never seen a rocket prep for flight. Especially when you cant just launch one in the middle of your city.
They didn't have Elon Musk on their team...
The problem with a supersonic aircraft is that it has to push its way through the atmosphere for the entire flight. A suborbital vehicle just has to climb up above the atmosphere, then it is much easier to accelerate. It only has to consume propellant as it is doing that, and then again when it lands. It does not have to push itself through the air for the entire trip.
Yeah, it’s totally impracticable. First they won’t be permitted to launch. Second boarding will be very difficult and slow. 3rd the landing will be extremely dangerous.
Suborbital travel between different parts of Earth is far from a new idea but in a world where even sub sonic airliners are being criticized for their fuel use, a rocket doesn't sound like a very good idea. From my home in the North of England it is possible to travel to London by car and train, in the morning, and then fly to California arriving in time for dinner. Very few people need to travel faster than that.
the day TED died....
Do they think Mars is habitable by humans? I don't think so.
How does this video have such a high approval rating?
Scammer! What BS- Only fanboys believe! Definitely never going to happen!
A “Scam’ you can’t even explain, very funny
TCV12 what does it cost to put 1 person in low orbital space? The amount of supplies and infrastructure required to achieve Musks BS is beyond resources even the current administration can supply. It’s all a scam. All part of the need for some to believe in something.
@@ALevelBusinessStudies Will you eat your humble pie when SpaceX manages to accompish what they set out to achieve in 5-15 years?
TCV12 Sure. You won’t because you will just makes excuses? Musk said he would go by 2025? Starship? Hyper loop? Las Vegas? All jokes!
@@ALevelBusinessStudies Do you think Starship will make orbit this year?
Wait I thought the earth was flat
Paresh Panchal damn it you beat me to it
Reprogram Your Life haha, sorry about that
It is basically flat in small portions so yes.
rawstarmusic lame attempt at trolling
Reprogram Your Life what? The earth is flat in some areas lol its not perfectly round.
Concorde in 2003: Oh no, humanity just took step back.
Elon: Hold my beer.
True i f*cking hate they retired the concorde.. it's frustating.
He started spaceX in 2003
they retired the Concorde for a reason because in the travel industry speed does not sell over comfort
time is precious for the privileged few.For us normal people, once BFR comes, expect business class to be extinct.Premium economy and economy will be the new norm.
Elon in 2021: Here's your underground taxi tunnel Vegas.
People:
Still nothing... it's insane that people actually believe this
16:52 “Within a decade.” We’re four years away from that decade mark. Starship has yet to achieve orbit with an empty payload, has yet to return a booster intact, and has yet to successfully re-enter. There is absolutely no way it will be flying ordinary passengers to terrestrial destinations in 4 years. Just the safety certification alone is likely a decade away from first getting it working in space, and we haven’t even reached that milestone yet.
