The employees of that mini navy have some of the coolest jobs in the world.
From a former sailor, this was a fascinating review of the SpaceX's seabased assets. This video really nailed down the challenges to develop these assets. I am impressed with SpaceX's at sea accomplishments.
This channel is literally an unbroken chain of absolute bangers with near daily uploads. HOW?!
They love what they do for sure
You know, it's really great to see a young person like yourself be interested and promote space exploration and rocket technology. Some young people scoff and tell us it's all fake, cgi, etc. Good luck to you. I'm one of the older generations who witnessed Sputnik and the Apollo programs to the moon. So I'll miss all the great things to come but you'll see it all. Mars landings, the new telescopes explaining our origin, finding life, etc. Keep it up. My tip, instead of reporting on SpaceX, get a job with SpaceX. Be there. Be the first.
Well then who will report on it? lol we can't *all* work there. Also I bet that'll only leave the, uh, ones that aren't "all that", not "the A team", to do the reporting.
Just the video I'd been hoping to see for some time. Nice work!
Yeah I was hoping to see this kind of video for a few years, but there we are, bringing new and more info into our nerd brains 😅
Ryan's narration is a pleasure to listen to! Well done Ryan!
Vintage NSF, Vintage Ryan, and just all round great veiwing. Well done.
Excellent overview of the SpaceX fleet. I wonder how much money has been saved so far by these reusable rockets. It must be astronomical.
Lots of great information, thanks Ryan and NSF team.
Falcon 9 does not get enough love. It is flying so that Starship can... well, fly too, but better.
FANTASTIC concise history here. Five stars, and a saver. THANK YOU
I like the droneship names taken from SciFi novels. Hopefully some Starships or boosters will get similar SciFi names in the future too.
I have a list of The Culture series ship names which I want to see get used. (It is not every ship name from the books. Just the ones which I think would work well)
Yeah. It's weird that barges get names and the stars of the show, amazingly reliable reusable spacecraft, only get numbers.
Thanks Ryan and NSF crew. Great video. Really informative. Hope we'll see lots more of these deeper dives in the near future! 👏👏
Very informative. I never thought much about the drone ships (other than being autonomous being cool) or the SpaceX sea fleet. Thanks for another great video.
Thanks to Ryan and the NSF team.
very good video... it start to show how hard it was to land falcon 9..people should be surprise with starship landing as well...but once they master it people will be shocked of what starship will be able to do!!!1
Excellent video! Excellent Content! Thank you and your team for all of your hard work and research.
I really want to see an OctaGrabber do its thing after a landing.
good overview. well done
Awesome info, well written, well presented. Just what one expects from NSF!!!
Excellent episode! Thanks
Nice job NSF, great job by Ryan.
The drone ships are named after two of “The Culture” ships in the second Iain M Banks novel “The Player of Games”. Best Wishes
This is fantastic work! Thank you NSF you keep hitting it to Mars 🚀
Thanks Ryan and crew, that was great. I'd love to know more about octigrabber though.
Great video. It answered alot of questions I never bothered to ask. And some I never thought to ask
Love this detail, we see all the cool stuff all the time but to get a view of what happens behind the scenes is fascinating.... More more more
EXCELLENT Video. Thanks for clearing up a topic few discuss.
Awesome video NSF team! I have always had a lot of questions about the drone ships and I think you answered them all. It’s interesting that we get caught up with Starship and forget that Falcons are carrying tons of stuff into space every other day or so.
Thanks! Fascinating and largely unreported topic. Really appreciate your choosing to do the work an episode like this takes. All the best
A very good summary of sea-based ops. It DOES all come down to money after all.
Great video Ryan & NSF, Thank you!
Very good video! Keep it up.
It's nice to focus on a specific topic from time to time, and get further into the nitty gritty details. Thanks.
Thank you for this episode it helped fill in some of the blanks in my information about the drum ships
Very very informative 👏
Thanks again friend.
Excellent research and reporting
This vehicle is the Spruce Goose of the 21st Century!
Loved the view of the drone ships passing each other!
Great video! Thank you Ryan!
Most informative video I've ever seen from you, Ryan! ❤ Keep it up!
Thanks for the vid!!🎉
You are my best Anchor at NSF
Just got around to watching! Great overview, and lots of fun facts included here!
Great insight
Thank you Ryan & team
thanks for the great info ryan
Appreciate this coverage and education of the marine assets that are needed to support the SpaceX fleet.
Thank you Bri. This was very informative!
Thank you for this great article!
Coffee and space hardware info. MMMmm Gotta luv it!
Great video! Informative!
Ryan...U R the best host by Nasaspaceflight!🎖️🏆🎂
Really good video - I didn't know about ATON that is another great bit of tech SpaceX has developed.
Great video Ryan awesome !!!!
Thank you
Peter's not necessarily wrong. Having said that, sometimes the only tool for the job is marine assets... no matter how much they might suck.
Excellent video.
Enjoyed this fact filled interesting video. Please make more on all aspects of space x, buildings, locations, dragons, boosters, etc.
Excellent as usual 👌🏻
great summary, but i missed a word on the fairing net catching approach... that was exciting.
This is a great review. Thank you
Nice work - I have been applying to work in their Marine division for the last 2 years.....Would love to help manage this mini Navy!
Man it's been a long ride to get here!
Great video!
Ryan top one good work
nice job Ryan
Very informative, thank you !.
Great video really enjoyed, thank you!
Great job
15:15 I can't believe they sold those plataforms after giving such a cool names xD
Excellent job!
Very nice!
Great video thanks
Spacex will change the world
I still love and am greatly amused by the fact they chose names from the Culture series
999K subs....nice one guys. 1Million, You do deserve it!!!
Very interesting video!
great content
9:47 love the sarcasm :)
I had no idea the drone ships were named after fictional space craft. That explains a lot 8-)
Excellent video.
Almost 10 years simce the first successful Falcon9 landing and still, nobody is close. By the time Starship becomes operational along with its intended cadence and rapid reuse.
Where does that leave the competition? I dont think they stand a chance.
Good host. I like the new energy.
Any chance to see a 30+ Starlink mission on an expendable 'bareback' launch?
How about a 25 ton ISS module shaped like a fairing?
Or a 25 ton welded one-piece Cargo+Trunk module with no heatshield between them?
Drone ships with it's own drones :)
Love the video!
Why can’t I watch it with my phone locked as any other video tho? 🤨
nice video
Epic! 😎
9:10 and 10:00. The burn marks on the deck show the booster consistently lands towards the stern rather than in the center of the bullseye. I've seen this on at least one other drone ship, and for quite a while. NSF, do you know why?
I’m finally erly
It took five years and twenty launches for SpaceX to recover the first Falcon 9. SpaceX now hopes to achieve that for the Starship Booster in 2024 on its sixth launch.
Great video!
Suggestion: Ryan should introduce himself at the beginning.
CRS-5... I still have the music from that launch stream. They don't play it anymore. :(
3:53 for me rn lol
I love your show. Excellent work. Please drop the volume of the background Muzak. It’s annoying 😢
Why not use the landing pads as a test bed for new, or testing existing heat tiles?
I wonder if they’ll be taking a similar approach to starship reusability like with the falcon 9: complete the mission and try catching/landing rockets afterward
Um, yes? Elon claims to want to reuse the full stack the same day. Where as Falcon takes weeks to prepare to re-fly.
You mentioned the tugs that drop the drone and then fetch the fairings. I can’t imagine those would fall anywhere near booster backed. Can you illustrate that or give an idea
I'd think they have the ability to control the booster to have it come back near the fairings. Yeah, it would be nice to know more though.
How do you get a t-shirt like that?🎉
It may be on their merch store.
Just because something is worth doing doesn't mean it doesn't suck
