    Starship Flight 4 Incoming! S31 Bursting Aftermath and Starliner Disaster... SpaceX Weekly #8
    Exciting news! The full-stacking for the first Flight 4 has just been completed, marking a crucial step towards the Wet Dress Rehearsal before the flight.
    Even more remarkable, the first Starship V2 component has officially arrived at Starbase, fulfilling the commitment of delivering six prototypes this year.
    Time is of the essence as SpaceX enters the midpoint of May, with final preparations for Flight 4 underway. The pace will only accelerate as Flight 4 is anticipated to launch in early June, following NASA Associate Administrator Kathy Lueders' revelation that the launch license could be approved by late May or early June.
    Starship Flight 4 Incoming! S31 Bursting Aftermath and Starliner Disaster... SpaceX Weekly #8
    Recent days have seen significant progress, with S29 and B11 transitioning to the Launch Site after over a month of preparation. Notable updates include the addition of hot staging on the Booster and the integration of a new heat shield system on the Ship. B11's arrival on May 11th saw it lifted to the OLM, while S29 followed suit a day later, seamlessly fitting into the middle of the Chopstick. However, the stacking process encountered a brief delay due to issues with S31. As of the morning of May 15, S29 has returned to the Chopstick, marking a crucial phase in the stacking procedure.
    Starship Flight 4 Incoming! S31 Bursting Aftermath and Starliner Disaster... SpaceX Weekly #8
    At noon on May 15, the full stacking process commenced. The Chopstick system lifted S29, adjusted its orientation, and finally positioned it precisely atop B11. This process, taking around an hour and a half, marked the first full-stack of S29 and B11, coming two months after Flight 3. SpaceX confirmed the successful stack on their X page. Elon Musk then also emphasized this milestone with the tweet: "Stacking Starship".

    Re: the heat shield problem. The problem I'm seeing is this. During fueling the skin of the aircraft gets freezing cold thus shrinking a little bit. I'm hoping that the new blue glue they used is much more flexible. Another possible fix is to improve the insulation between the tanks and the skin.

    • @tonyduncan9852
      @tonyduncan9852 22 дні тому +1

      _"much more flexible"_ - that will be quite a trick at cryogenic temperatures.
      Not only that, but freezing atmospheric water vapour may fill the tiling interstices and peel tiles off when it boils off on re-entry. This ice will definitely ablate away in space, given sufficient time, but not if not.
      Also the shell may still resonate sufficiently to shrug off tiles on takeoff. This we have seen already, I believe.

  • @michaelmcmullen354
    @michaelmcmullen354 22 дні тому +1

    With the tanks held together with 8000 or 9000 ft of butt welds it probably only takes 1/2" or less of iffy weld (0.0005%) to initiate a rupture under test pressures. In service only a fraction of the weld is loaded near the stress of the test pressures before the safety factor that is built into the test pressure.

    The elephant in the room.... is there a second option for the heat shield? That's what I'm wondering. Like a sealant that can go overtop of the tiles? Is there a thick pant that is just as resistant as the tiles? I'm sure they already are looking into it, but it seems like the tiles are going to become a constant problem/issue.
    Thanks.

      Inconel wire cast into the bottom of tiles (where its cooler) projecting from the corners and tied, connected, or twisted together to make the heat shield like a chain mail shirt.

    @GREAT SPACEX do you even pay attention to whats going on at Starbase or just get the info for this video third hand after a game of whispers? Its not a new heat shield system they are just using a new adhesive and now they double check the tiles are fitted correctly using a suction cup to give them a good wiggle and a hard tug to ensure they wont fall off. S31 did not burst like it says in the video title it was just an electrical short during a cryo test. no hole, no fuel or o2 was spilled. You said that during flight 4 the booster "instead of an ocean landing it will simulate a virtual tower catch" Yes it will perform a virtual catch .... in the ocean. I enjoyed watching your last few videos but its like you are not even trying, did you get the script from a AI/LLM ? There are silly little mistakes all over.

    Hey Elon, why not no legs on the OLM ? Have tower support the OLM . Only one spot on the OLM needs to protect hardware needed. Clearly, orbital launch mount attached directly to the launch tower with no legs, it would eliminate a lot of parts. Any unforeseen alignment issues between tower and OLM , gone. More… you could write a book. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

    What people don't get is that the Dragon was not designed to boost up the ISS. The Russian capsule currently does this task but Russia is no longer a reliable longer term partner. The Starliner was given this task. So cancelling the Starliner would mean the ISS would have to rely on the Russians. This is why they have to keep the Starliner capsule. It not a backup to SpaceX it is a backup to the Russian capsule who is no longer a good long term partner anymore.

      So can you give me some sources, this sounds like a fascinating story. I hope it isn't just a story...
      Having said that, what has it got to do with the fact that so many tiles are lost on EVERY mission. You see my question was about alternatives, especially in this age of new material coming up nearly every day. I am just curious about why tiles are still used and if there is an alternative. Is it weight, is it just that effective, is it a cost thing?
      Know anything about that? Or just wanted to set me straight that everything I've ever read about the Columbia disaster is not true and a conspiracy theory about NASA is the real answer.
      Again, if true, show me the source. I am very serious about wanting to know the truth.

      It was days after the incident and an image was published by a German paper, do not recall which one, but an analysis showed the manual closing of the main gear doors using a stick, then the gear door snapped shut. The image from the Air Force satellite of the open door was then with drawn and the story of the ice hitting the LEADING EDGE was constructed.
      The leading edge is made of a carbon-carbon structure designed to withstand the collision of large birds, frozen Canadian geese, a standard test for new aircraft engines, Rolls Royce flunked the test with their composite fan blades, layer replaced by titanium blades.
      A further analysis placed the damage behind the wing spar, verified by images that survived. This is a cover up, because the external tank sheds ice frequently, and the leading edge was designed to take I. Further look at the location of the external tank in relation to the wings and try to construct a path from the ice to that leading edge at the span station of the main gear.
      Simulations were conducted that disproved the ice theory.
      The contractor had to be protected from legal prosecution. I clearly remember the AFRO image.
      The image capabilities from that satellite are highly classified. You put it together.
      Monte Carlo simulations are very reliable, involving a large number of initial conditions, trajectories and weight and shape of ice pieces.
      I know that because I used the Monte Carlo approach from my work to verify the radar altimeter on the Viking landers.
