Starship | First Integrated Flight Test
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 тра 2023
- Starship gave us quite a show during the first flight test of a fully integrated Starship (S24) and Super Heavy rocket (B7) from Starbase in Texas.
On April 20, 2023 at 8:33 a.m. CT, Starship successfully lifted off from the orbital launch pad for the first time. The vehicle cleared the pad and beach as Starship climbed to an apogee of ~39 km over the Gulf of Mexico - the highest of any Starship to-date.
With a test like this, success comes from what we learn, and we learned a tremendous amount about the vehicle and ground systems today that will help us improve on future flights of Starship. - Наука та технологія
Can we get the 4 hour director's cut? :D
Haha, yes please!
yes
Yesss
Just give me all the unedited video.
I want raw footage from every camera so I can watch starship take off in like 100 different ways.
That ending showing what's up next is a powerful way to end!
No other rocket company would so brazenly show off a vehicle of theirs exploding and then go "Ah well, we'll just try again" - it's what makes SpaceX special. Can't wait for S25 and B9!
Agreed!
Yep, just like the video of all the falcon 9 landing failures
@@evergreen1961 Musk says in a couple of months if construction on the launch mount goes to plan and tests of the booster and ship go well
@@Kennerad0 and if they manage to fight off the dumb lawsuit
@@scarecrxw667 yeah, that's such a joke
I watched the Falcon Heavy Test Flight while I was in eighth grade. After watching the side boosters simultaneously land I was in sheer awe from that day forward and knew what I wanted to do in life…
Just last month I watched Starship take flight while studying for my final exams at the end of my first year in university for aerospace engineering.
Thank you SpaceX for my life passion!
What is the name of the school/university? if you can share it
@@alexandergrigoryan3359 I attend Ryerson University in Toronto Canada!
Godspeed 🚀
I hope one day you ll be in boca chica creating new rockets for space x
goodluck with your career my friend :)
No one's gonna point out that this thing is so powerful that the Launch Command Bass was shaking from the sheer force of this thing. AND THEY WERE MILES AWAY!
During the live broadcasts It was shaking the planet to everyone nearby. Absolutely Immense power.
wish I could be involved in such projects. I'll never get the opportunity to work on something important though.
Seismometers picked up the rumble as far as 200 miles away i heard
@@abowden5079 Bro i believe in you, if you like this project, please take a good shot at it,
@@abowden5079 not with that attitude you wont! It's never too late to begin the journey to become an engineer or anything else that you might want to be involved in with the aerospace/space exploration field. Especially with AI tools that are beginning to supercharge education/learning.... that's a topic for a different video though 😉
Can't wait for S25 & B9 to fly! Great job SpaceX team! 🚀🚀🚀
Going down to Texas for ift-2. It will be crazy
if the exhaust cloud at takeoff is white, PAD stays in tact
if the exhaust cloud is brown PAD getting ripped up,
kinda like what oriville dam did when it stopped erodinng the hillside and got down to bedrock when it was failing with the water color
brown or white exhaust at next launch? and compare it to first launch,
😍😍
I hope they launch it for June
When will S25 and B9 happen?
Despite the ending, this was the single most hype launch. The cheering, the anticipation, the enthusiasm..
Excitement was definitely guaranteed.
The next one should only be even better. I must say, I am excited for the next one as well. SpaceX is always pushing the envelope.
Watch the first Falcon Heavy flight again 😊 It doesn't get much better than that... this matches it in a way, too, but the fairing separation and simultaneous booster-landings are unforgettable 😁😁
@@auditamplifier8493 ...and the twn sonic booms for the first time! That was absolutely an epic launch. The cheering and enthusiasm of the SX employees made that launch as great as it was!
@@-108- it still makes me emotional hearing all of the cheers when I rewatch...💯😭😂🤷
@@auditamplifier8493 Totally! I re-watched it about a year ago with my uncle, and I unexpectedly got choked up. Then, I re-watched it again a few days later and it did the same thing to me! It was funny because I totally did not expect to get so emotional. It chokes me up to this day.
0:47 You can really see the power of Starship... Look at those windows shaking....
Meus amigos extraterrestres não precisam de tanta coisa pra decolar e sumir rapidamente na atmosfera, nós estamos muito atrasados 😅
Good observation 👍
@@alfraniopotiguar4578We use what we have and we enjoy it
@@alfraniopotiguar4578 They are indeed very technologically advanced, and they don't need to use rocket technology at all. You can't imagine when we'll be able to do anything better than rocket science.
SpaceX knows how to keep people interested and excited for what is to come.
Why do you like Elon so much? I will like to learn

SpaceX is unrivaled. Great job to everyone at SpaceX. Continue pushing forward!
If it continues to grow, it will be the first private company to reach a trillion market value.
The only rival is China which is an entire country.

@@Elemental1357 you mean private *space* company?
No, stop it rigth now. 👉 How meny sea turtles should be sacrified before you nerds are satisfied.? God damn nerds!
This made me cry. I mean this is freaking beautiful. I really miss watching these moments with my mother. We'd stay up at night and watch every SpaceX launch. It didn't matter what time it happened.
Spectacular first test! This is a game changer! On we go!!! 😍
I watch your channel. Keep up the good work Felix. Dr. Strange would be proud 😉😉😌

I would do anything to watch this... My family sucks!
Congrats dude.
The fact it got off the ground is a massive success
Even the ground got off the ground.
@@iamaduckquack Thats a good one lol
Hopefully the ground stays in the ground next time.

I wish we had a similar program in Europe, but ESA, Arianespace and our billionaires are still asleep there. Both thumbs up for SpaceX and their efforts. Starship and reusable rockets are really inspiring and I'm looking forward to the next launch.
Unfortunately decisions regarding Arianespace and Esa are met by politicians from several countries, with this system it can never be as flexible as a private company.
They don't want to spend that alot of money they are using SPACE X AS an investment for when STARSHIP LANDS ON MARS INVESTORS will flock space x demanding they will buy a rocket and rebrand and reverse enginer it
Probably because they know it’s all a crock of 💩
Maybe EU does not have its knowledge😂
@@serpentclan9720 No, knowledge is for sure not the problem. ESA for example is building the service module for SLS, which worked flawlessly during the first SLS and Orion flight. Also the Ariane program was a big success and Ariane 5 a great reliable rocket. Even the unmanned ATV was a great module to deliver supplies to the ISS, that thing was very close to a manned vehicle.
But the many countries which all want to participate and make decisions are somewhat unflexible and not as agile as one company can be. Also there seems to be some kind of lack and enthusiasm to manned exploration of space.
What an insane achievement, despite it blowing up! I was in tears when it lifted off!
Can't wait! I love how SpaceX shares everything with us. We all feel like part of the team, and we're all pulling for you.
I just need to see the camera looking at the engines die, and they seem to dismiss that footage
@@DavidRamirez-lq2coyeah
@@DavidRamirez-lq2co plenty of footage of it bro, first 3 were cut of before launch to start with.
@@DavidRamirez-lq2co Wumao
Pretty share they wont share a seat to mars
Imagine when we first hear: "The Starship has landed on Mars."
I cannot wait
Utopia Platitia here, the starship has landed.
Maybe within a couple of years
At this rate it will be "The Starship has crashed on Mars." but even that would be super awesome. I'm excited for the future thanks to SpaceX. :)
@@dmurray2978 absolutely won't be within 2 years.
View of space from the on board cameras makes me feel happy that SS performed beyond expectation. Super amazing.
cant wait for part two in a couple of weeks
That smile on Elon's face (at 1:30) reminds me of the first time Falcon Heavy flew. Pure happiness! Congrats SpaceX team! 🖤
It's like that smile when Peter Isherwell in the movie realized that too many drones had failed and his plan wouldn't work anymore, as he was too arrogant to have his plan peer-reviewed. He perfectly persiflated the situation here as one engine blew up after the other until total loss of control!
Just rewatched the Life on Mars edit of Falcon Heavy after years.
After being handed billions of hard earned dollars for a hoax then i guess he is laughing all the way to his NASA funded bank account?
@@jmatasomo2660 is this hoax in the room with you right now?
@@jmatasomo2660 hoax 🤣🤣🤣 bro you’ve escaped the matrix 😭
Seeing this in person was one of the most exhilarating experiences of my life. Being able to be there and film and experience all that launch day had to offer is a day I'll always cherish. I can't wait to make the drive down and see you all do the next launch. It's stuff like this that brings people together.
Oh wow. You saw it in person?? I wish they did launches in Australia :/
Gotta ask. How incredibly loud was it?
@@mymixedbiscuit9159 Lol i wish so aswell
@@mymixedbiscuit9159 Aussie here, totally agree.
@@LoanwordEggcorn you could feel the air vibrate if that makes sense. A one-of feeling that I’ve never had anywhere else.
That was so amazing!!! I remember when Elon gave the first presentation on the Starship design, back then it was called BFR. I also remember how many said it would never fly. Well...... it did!!! Congratulations to all the workers at SpaceX for making this thing take to the skies!! Can't wait for the next flight!!!!
They now also say CyberTruck won't be built and there won't be a working FSD! No CyberTruck or FSD for them!
People have always maintained a high level of enthusiasm for exploring the universe, and although they have failed, this is the beginning, not the end
So many new camera angles! Truly amazing
Now we have to wait for them to release the full footage, because if this was made after the launch, then that means the footage survived even after the rocket exploded, meaning that it still exists in it's full form
"Up Next: S25, B9". Goosebumps!! 😍💥
One of the greatest moments in human history, kudos to the space X team. If we someday land in another planet or fly to another star-system, we we'll remember this day as the beginning of everything...
This is the coolest thing i’ve watched live. Absolutely incredible.
The fact that the coupling between the booster and Starship didn't fail, even as it was going end over end is pretty amazing, on top of everything else. Still get goosebumps watching these launches, absolutely love it!
Im not surprised at the fact that it didnt fail, but that it didnt even bend at all throughout the entire tumble
@@Marrrrrko47it did bend actually, pretty sure Scott Manley did a video analysing the launch and you can see bending from the on board footage
@@wheatley1866 yes, true
That's the thing, it was SUPPOSED to fail. Or, at least release. The flip was intended to replace the need for separation charges. Still, off the pad, clear of the tower, through Max Q...there's nothing to be disappointed about with that. It didn't lift off, it pushed the planet out of it's way.
@@jamesbuchanan4414 The flip was because the booster lost its gimbaling actuator fluid and the steering engines got stuck in their current angle (it's why they switched to electric gimbaling). Evidently the launch debris knocked out not just some engines but also some hydraulic lines. It didn't separate because iit never reached the required speed and altitude for separation. Also its flight termination system did so little damage that it took 40 seconds for the tumbling ship to blow up.
I was blown away. I wasn't gonna miss this for the world, and I got to watch it live. What a first test!
The ground was blown away also 🤣
I live in Australia and i really wish i could have seen this in person.
So was the starship. And the launchpad.
Same here
I had to convince our engineering teacher to let us watch it
This is very hard to fathom that there are humans who doesnt see this as the beginning of one of the greatest achivenment of humanity. s25 bn9 ftw! Love from Hong Kong.
Shhh Andy be careful of what you say.
0:47 - How the windows are shaking! Amazing :o
The most impressive part of the 1st test flight was that the entire craft maintained its integrity while aggressively cartwheeling prior to the flight termination system being initiated and ultimately taking effect. Amazing engineering, design and construction.
Partly true, the FTS was activated 40ish seconds earlier. Major redesigns and testing happening now for recertification
@@atoftw4256 The entirety of his point was about the structural integrity in the face of loss of control. What the flight termination system do are didn't had nothing to do with it.🤦
@@damilareowosangba7864 That may be the entirety of his point but it isn't the entirety of information in the comment
it wasn't cart wheeling, it was cork screwing actually.
The structural engineers in the crowd of employees was evident on roll 1 😂😮😮😮😮 😂 they were screaming with glee
was surreal to watch live, its crazy to think that eventually these will launch just as often or more than Falcon9
Brings tears to my eyes everytime.
Thank you Space X team.
Excited for the future of starship!
I watched this with my family. They didn't know anything about rockets but everyone, every sigle one of them was as excited as I was for this launch. It was something on another level!!
Really awesome and mesmerizing video ! Ed !
I love the casual atmosphere at SpaceX, and you can tell all of them are space nerds, and not just in for the money.
Congratulations on such a successful test flight! I most definitely wasn't expecting it to reach separation altitude. Really shows your company has become extremely good at analysis, because that was also effectively the first test flight of the main booster.
" I most definitely wasn't expecting it to reach separation altitude."
It didn't. Separation altitude is quite a bit higher than what Starship got.
@@kelseyduerksen6404 why did they announce that it was flipping for stage separation? Perhaps the alt for SS is lower when you have a giant starship on the booster! “We saw the start of the flip, but obviously, we’re seeing from the ground cameras the entire Starship stack continuing to rotate,” reported SpaceX principal integration engineer. “We should have had separation by now. Obviously this does not appear a nominal situation.”
1:05
@@Cosmic__Chris No, the stage sep altitude as published by SpaceX prior to the launch was supposed to be around 80km up, not 35. Some of the stuff the webcasters were saying was scripted, but what actually happened was not a nominal sequence of events.
@@Cosmic__Chris
That announcement was based on the mission clock, not the height. I believe they thought it was the flip and didn’t think about the height.
We waited so long for this beast to take to the sky, and it didn’t disappoint. Good luck to the Starbase team on flight #2!

Thank you for inspiring the masses again about space.
Love from Greece.
Oh my gosh, the view from the ground with Starship in the background going up at 1:08 is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. That's straight out of a movie but it's real life. What a time to be alive. I'm glad I can see all the launches living in Florida.
Wasn’t this in Texas?
@Peter J fair enough, but @JupiterSailfish said “I’m glad I can see all the launches” and it just struck me as odd because obviously they didn’t see this one.

In regards to launch infrastructure, I assume you mean watch history re-unfold.

Beautiful to watch.
Breathtaking, especially when it's been filmed so well too.
Still remember thattime when they add the grid-fin ^^
Congrats on such a successful test! Cant wait for the next. That will be something to behold, even more so than the first haha.
I feel like I’m living in a science fiction movie, Great work SpaceX team!!
Moments like this will be spoken about for generations to come. Proud to have been here.
So happy i got to witness this once in a lifetime launch in person. Awesome job SpaceX!
Fingers crossed for engine ignition cam release🤞🏾
One of the coolest test flights I've seen in my life. Excited for what's coming next!
Thank you for the video, SpaceX. Now I want more more more! More of your footage, please.
I love this... space x rocks. I never thought we would be doing this as humans during my lifetime. thank you for being you!!! and please allow video comments on more of the videos... i think they can serve as historical input for generations to come. ☮
I watched the live stream that day, and the initial roar of all the engines was just....wow (from just computer speakers. you could tell it was massive).
Haters gonna hate. This is progress. I can't wait to see the next launch!
I'm not a hater and want nothing but SpaceX to succeed, but this could be a very very long path, what exactly was achieved here that never has been. How will crew escape in an emergency. This vehicle is not well founded. To think this will be human rated, even the top half, by next year is a pipedream.
A 26 billion dollars/year organization thinks otherwise
@@gradient-hj airplanes arent loaded with fuel and oxidizer that when combined are equivalent to a small nuclear detonation. Comparing todays spaceflight with todays airlines is not something that can be done now. NASA said the same thing about the space shuttle 50 years ago and that worked out for them. Need to prove safety before an LAS isnt required at launch, aka thousands of uneventful launches
@@best-aaron26 it costs more like 100 million and it's an iterative design literally built to blow up.
Unbelievable how such a monster can fly. To think it will eventually land like the Falcons. Big amazing 🎉
Good luck guys! Thanks for the show! 😀
Wow WoW WOW! Emotions, chills, excitement, how incredible! Go SpaceX Go Starship. Im beyond excited for the next attempt!
this footage makes my old heart leap. all the work for this ; incredible. You (Elon and ALL the team) are what is keeping ALL of US well engaged; just by the way you so thankfully let us in to the progress ( good , bad and all in between ) . even the oops are great moments of great learning along with the drive and want not to just do it but do right with Style only your own .

Great job!!! Congratulations guys!!! God bless you!!!
And now, it has been one year since this beast flew
Crazy how much better flights has gotten
I witnessed this historical moment Live. Unbelievable
It didn’t reach space, far from it, but man…
After watching this program grow from a bunch of tents and steel rings in the middle of nowhere, April 20th 2023 is a day I will never forget. Godspeed SpaceX you beautiful humans.
It wasn't really expected to. First flight of a disposable test article. I think I recall Elon saying it could take up to 4 flights to make orbit.
the genuine smile on elon's face as it was climbing
No one can doubt the robustness of this rocket system with all the flips it did before rapid self disassembly. This was a test, and it was impressive. No doubt SpaceX will learn a lot from all the telemetry and fix these issues.
Heck yes!!!
Hello there :)
Hi man. What do you think about the jews?
Even Jesus loves Starship!
Hope all is well with you Jesus!
Jesus Christ approves
"Build, test, iterate" is an amazing lesson.
SpaceX has taught me to be less fearful of failure.
You can't learn if you don't test your ideas. Thank you!
Write for partnership
HELL YEAH!! THIRD TIME'S THE CHARM, BABY!!!!
I invited 15 people to this launch; offsetting salary and travel.....no one went 😂
I drove 1200 miles with an exaust leaking S10 and slept in a rest stop with my guitar in hand....(no need for hotel solo)
Was able to talk with SpaceX employees from 3am to launch 🎉❤ UNREAL LAUNCH ❤
Literally breathtaking. We go, for humanity flying to Mars. Godspeed, SpaceX team!
That is literally what literally does not mean.
Hope someone make another documentary on SpaceX Starship interviewing the engineers on how they feel about Starship and making people multiplanetary
