Lab Padre continues to impress with their latest update, showcasing stunning images of the hardware and scenery around Starbase and Cape Canaveral. Their videos skip the unnecessary talking head chatter, focusing solely on the hardware, which is exactly what viewers like me appreciate. Thank you for consistently delivering such excellent update videos from around Starbase.
Thanks!
Yes, he dose an excellent job just giving the information without any foolishness.
as a blind subscriber I particularly appreciate the excellent narration cheers
What an amazing test! These videos are the best. Concise and condensed. Thank you
You're very welcome!
Yeah lab is good like that
Well done, Starship!
I wish the feds would stop funding this Nazi.
More PLASMA please! They built themselves a mighty tough ship!
Absolutely. I could wager the ship would survive re-entry with tiles missing. That thing is damn robust. Well done SpaceX.
you liked that sideways drift burn ? ✊️ 😑 she can take the heat eh?
You know how Spacex loves significant numbers...... 4-20 is next on the calendar !??🚀
Thanks LabPadre team!!!
It feels like this launch was forever ago and now I’m just super excited for the next one!!
Amazing coverage. The complete story of Starbase and SpaceX, thank you for you're hard work, sir!
My pleasure!
thx for all the documentation on SpaceX devolpment!
WOW !! Lab Padre what a great update , Thank you so much!!
You bet!
You have the best updates Padre, thank you bro.
And thank your for your support!
Still the best coverage on UA-cam!! Great work!!
Wow, thanks!
great video update as usual, thanks
Thanks for watching!
Bravo, Bravo. What an incredible video. I like the format. You guys knocked it out of the park.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great reporting!
Between adding an hour or so to my daily work schedule and the launch I didn't get much sleep this week, but it was worth it to watch that Plasma Field forming during re-entry, thats the wildest thing i've ever seen.
At 18:47. Maybe they are preparing for the redesign for the version 2 of the launch table with the upgrades they have in mind they're going to use for the 2nd Boca launch tower/table.
Great summary of this week. May flights 1-3 be remembered like Hoppy. May flight 4 bring both home
Your web site is excellent as it is very informative.
I appreciate that!
Thanks for the great in depth coverage!
Excellent job, LAB, as always. Great coverage. Thank you.
Much appreciated
thanks LP
Great coverage! Thanks!
Thank you too!
@@LabPadre Someone should measure the wind speed during a launch, temperature too. Might be an interesting addition to the already great coverage.
Another great update, hope you got a chance to enjoy the launch.
This one was better but still a rough ride. Glad I brought my parachute.
Thanks, Lab.
thank you for your presentations which are always clear and do not seek to be spectacular. It’s so rare that it deserves a big congratulations.
You are very welcome
What a week!
WOW!!! What a week and many more!
WOW! Kudos to your Editor! This is Such a Fine video! I'm gonna save this video to my Permanent Files!
This video should be Nominated for some sort of Internet Prize!
Thanks! Our team is the best!
Might have sounded kool if you had said, "left the Gateway in a cloud"
Another Amazing Update! Thanks, LabPadre!
My pleasure!
very impressive presentation ... well done ,, good info 😊 thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
The government and the civilian industry should take note as how SpaceX operates at break neck speed with manufacturing and testing. amazing.
Good job Lab!! Your having fun now!! ;-)
Always!
Love all the video's!!!
Yay! Thank you!
❤awesome congratulations 🎉😊
I would recon Boca Chica is firmly on the map by now 😉👍
Luv IT ! ! ❤ Thx for the thorough coverage, it's the Best ! ! 🤪 👍 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Please forgive my ignorance as I did not read comments to see if my comment was already mentioned, sooooo...
Super Heavy is gonna need separate propellant tanks solely for landing/boost-back burns that are segregated from the main tanks.
Reason
The main tanks are entirely too large when empty/low which means there's a ton more space inside that can/will/does get HOT during re-entry which boils off the cryogenic propellants.
If ya have separate tanks, their temperatures/boil-off will be much more predictable and reduced.
Makes shit more complicated, but it's the only way this human sees being a help with the situation.
Epic!!! 😎
you can always tell the fans and objective folks from the doom sayers. nice to see a headline that tells it like it is instead of 'starship burns up... again'.
If you want to test the unprotected stainless steel strength and resilience to reentry speeds and plasma, what would you do? Test immediately by by using a shortened flight profile with no danger to populated areas, or leave it for later and spend a more evolved Starship flying over Philippines and Hawaii ?
My opinion is that the slow Starship rotation was intentional for a test that cannot be repeated later.
whoa ! hold up, bring that back ... on that starlink sat mission - - did they retrieve that booster ? 😂 i commented too soon .. i got it now, thanks 😊
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THE PEZ DOORS WERE FULLY CLOSED DURING RE-ENTRY ? ? ?🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Awesome recap again!! Why did they move a shipstand to the Launchsite after IFT 3?
If the door is not fully closed, and the ship is experiencing plasma build up, and rolling, is it not periodically exposing the partially open bay to re-entry heat??
all they need to do is dig a trench to alter the angle of the blast going back upwards ..its that simple ..
And that was a successful launch go, SpaceX go Elon Musk.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤩🚀🚀
Hey, I was just wondering. Will SpaceX build a second Rd just for civilians away from the launch tower, And then use the first main road as a SpaceX operated Rd.
Very unlikely this will happen.
Thank you@@LabPadre
since starship can reach orbit in expandable mode now do you think we will see a bunch of contracts for that?
So far it has no real way to deploy a payload other than Starlinks, a system which itself is still untested.
Starship payload bay door need a different design and opening mechanism for general customers. Not this dispenser type. They will need to fly that design and make sure it can open and deploy satellites in orbit before they can take in customers.
Also they might need to upgrade Starship with more powerful RCS to stop it from tumbling all over after reaching orbit...and finally figure out how to stop all those venting and flaking of large blocks of ice from Starship... these blocks of ice can damage any satellites that going to be deployed from Starship.
Does anybody know what happens to the concrete inside the OLM legs? It's there a risk with all of the extreme heat, pressure waves, and vibrations? Can that cause issues?
There's a concrete construction everywhere but it doesn't cause any major issues
I've speculated this over on NasaSpaceFlight's channel, but I wonder if future towers they're going to give themselves more distance between the launch area and the ground equipment, just to better handle the force of takeoff. Could be that they're just too close right now to really shield everything properly. Also kinda wondering if they might not build, or allow to be built, some sort of bunker structures for all the cameras. I mean sure, they don't have any obligation to, but all those fans and groups setting up equipment are great PR for the company and it'd be a nice little nod to the groups that all support their endeavors
Maybe, I suspect more horizontal tanks. When you're using super chilled propellants plumbing runs are a real concern.
@@TheEvilmooseofdoomtrue, but right now they have all their tanks and plumbing practically on top of the launch area...with the result that stuff is getting hammered every launch. I'm not talking setting it a mile apart or anything, just move it back a bit further.
thought it blew up.
So incredibly proud by of Elon🎉 and Team
Tell me that design isn't based on 1930's Flash Gordon shows.
😄
where is the thumb nail coming from i have yet to see this view point on any video. everything i find is from the other side
So many words that don't even apply to the title….. windows in the bathroom?
elon going to become the first trillionaire the world has ever seen!!
DUE TO THIS OVERWHELMING SUCCESS WE DEFINITELY NEED TO PUT A CREW ON BOARD TO MONITOR SYSTEMS !
Now you're being silly.
-3,000,000,000 carbon credits.
That would be the same -3,000,000,000 carbon credits that China owes for its electric car production, send a nasty email to them, I’m sure you’ll get a response.
🤣🤣🤣Thank you for that estimate. What Al-Gore-ithm did you use.
@@johnbize5736 I listened to Sabine Hossenfelder's latest dose of reality.
@@DCGreenZone I like her.
@@johnbize5736 She is brilliance personified. 👍
I don’t see how this thing is going to land on the moon with uneven terrain, full of craters, rocks, boulders and regolith. Also that tall second stage is ill designed to be a lander, imo.
First not bot
My Dieces.
How much cash did rocket man blow up this time.
None of yours wise guy.
@@ExpatZ266 actually nasa is flipping the bill for this so it is
About what bloated, pork driven Federal Agency NASA wastes each hour.
@@jebes909090 No, this was going to be developed no matter what. NASA is footing the bill for the HLS version.
How can you cheerleaders live with yourselves?
The current starship is a pile of crap design. There are four more copies just like ift-3 .
It had to hot stage a full minute earlier than if t-2. Reason to avoid exploding. That is not a step forward. That a step backward. Then hot stage flat top section destroyed nozzle o-rings in the three gimbal engines. But starships burned damaged engines to 170 kilometers. Engines shut off. But now gimbal engines are venting methane in an oxygen out the rear of the rocket.. video fades out for a while until they bring it back online with Star-link. The view remains the same. Gas is still being expelled out the back of the rocket through leaking O-rings. As starship begins arcing down to reentry, gimbal engines can’t relight. So as it hits the atmosphere the tiles and insulation begins flying of the ship Like a dealer dealing cards at Vegas. With no gambling engines now starship begins to pitch and yaw. Even if SpaceX could have righted the ship. It still burns up due to missing Thermal heat tiles. Last as to heat resistant stainless it melts at 1400 to 1450 degrees. If it were 7075-t6 or 7 it would melt at 1075 degrees . With starship falling like a stone out of space it will encounter 4,500 to 6,000 degrees. At least Apollo came in at an angle and avoided temperature around 3,200. The tiles will not stick to 304 stainless. Heat has nothing to do with it. It is plane non stick.
So expect the same result with ift-4 threw ift-9. After ift-9 bs will walk. The government will no longer throw more good money after bad.
Lab and staff., an amazing job. covering all the action Well done.!
Our team is the best!
@@LabPadre .. I couldn't agree more, you guys are the best..
Nice. #wenstack
