    Why does the SpaceX droneship camera cut out?
    .
    It was back in 2015 when SpaceX landed its first rocket successfully, after several attempts that ended up in fiery explosions every time, the company was trying to save the majority of its Falcon 9 rockets after they lift off, in order to re-fly them again to reduce the company's overall manufacturing costs.
    The Rocket Was Carrying 11 Satellites destined for low-Earth orbit, and it's very important to note that Falcon heavy is not a small rocket like BlueOrgin New Shepard or SpaceX Grasshopper, and it carried important cargo in this mission before its successful landing on a landing pad at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.
    SpaceX has aimed from the beginning to have a Sea-based rocket landing since 2013. After many Failures, They Collected the data to make their first successful Sea-landing on a moving pad in the ocean in 2016, the drone ship called “Of Course I Still Love You", a Floating barge, like its sister ship “Just Read The Instructions,” it is named after a starship in the late Iain M. Banks sci-fi novels.
    Sea-based rocket landings are considered to be more difficult than ground-based landings. It’s a smaller target area and the drone ship itself is constantly moving because of the motion of the sea.
    So, it would be reasonable to question; why all future launches aren’t attempted on stable ground? Why SpaceX would choose a drone ship landing over a more stable landing pad? & what’s the mysterious robot roaming about on one of SpaceX’s drone ships?

    FYI - The Octagrabber uses electro-magnets to hold its self to the steel deck via the power cable. As long as it's powered the rocket won't move.

      That is what I tought of magnets but had my doubts, depending on how heavy the rocket is it could fail, but if they find the balance between atachment and weight great, though honestly I havent seen the power of electromagnets in person to estimate its real power of holding😊

    One thing not explained is the guidance technology that gets the booster to the drone ship and hits it dead center. They get only one shot at it, so the terminal guidance has to be both extremely fast and accurate.

    • @old-wise-one4473
      @old-wise-one4473 2 роки тому

      I'm suspecting its just simple GPS technology. The control center knows where the rocket is coming down so its just a matter of moving the two to meet up. Getting to rocket to swing a bit towards the direction the barge is coming from as the barge is steaming to the intercept point.

      @@backenfn - The ocean is not stationary! There are wind, currents and tides that will move the barge if it didn't have its own means of movement to align its self with the expected point of the meetup. The rocket is not able to do the small needed movement the barge does it!
      Look at the docked barge where you can see the four props raised. Each one is able to pivot about independently. When they are all facing the same direction they are like a regular boat, then when getting close to the station point they can adjust the position as needed and then when at station hold that position! In each case the barge is moving!
      The degree of movement is to get there and then hold its position.
      What I think might confuse you is the barge is towed out and back in. The barge needs to be guided out and back to port. Its also likely the power is limited so it wouldn't have enough to get to the location or back on its own.

      It would add the risk, that a small displacement could lead for one of the legs to fall into the opening and lose the rocket. Also when you fire the exhaust stream into the water directly, it could splash up uncontrolled.

    • @mriguy3202
      @mriguy3202 10 місяців тому

      the accuracy of the booster hitting the bulls-eye on the ship would be the problem with that idea. If the booster is off by, say, 20 feet, then one of the landing legs might fall into the hole in the landing pad. The surface of the ship seems to tolerate the landing burn pretty well, remember it's a lot lighter than at blastoff and the burn is short.

    Hello, I think it would be great to be more direct. It took 3 minutes before entering the real subject (... a 1/2 of the video). I think people searching for this already know enough and don’t need to have a 3-minutes talk about SpaceX, it’s terribly long, and already explained everywhere else.
    Edit: absolutely no scoop in this video
    The robot leaves his garage, secures the rocket and that’s all. Literally nothing else is explained...
