@@shuryimaziz3426 technically it's only going to be suborbital. It's coming down before completing a single orbit. Elon confirmed it in the Everyday Astronaut Starbase tour.
Despite the enormity of SpaceX's achievements, this remains one of my most favorite video, second only behind the dual booster landing from the Falcon Heavy.
You know what isn't amazing? That people located near the test site where told to exit their homes just incase windows blow in. Glad that SpaceX has Sheriff inform people their home isn't safe because of SpaceX. Maybe should find a safer place to test.
I was actually watching this stream (and some other live feeds) for hours and then decided to go to a pub. On my way to the pub I popped up my phone and turned youtube on to watch the stream. I saw the countdown happening, and actually ran back home as fast as I could to just watch it on a bigger screen with my headphones on. Boy did I have drinks that night. What, a, day...
How many astronauts were on that? How many total astronauts has SpaceX put up? Just saying, before you all go overboard. We've seen these types of flights for years already. Time for SpaceX to join the 1960's.
@@TheKdcool plus they controlled the throttle on that engine to hover and land a water tower! Other people aren't even managing that with expander cycle engines.
It would be fairer to say that it all began with the first successful flight of the Falcon I. Or, more in Musk's style, with the failure of the first Falcon I.
@@jeffreyexposito3803 2026 seems way too soon, making the rocket is already a huge deal. Then you need to prove it cannot fail. It is better for everyone that the rocket actualy fly dozens of times before it carry humans, neither spaceX nor the government want a failure with humans onboards. Then you need to have everything planned, from what to do during the flight to what to do when on mars. Mars is a huge deal, it is not like the moon where you can do with just a lander or the iss which you can send a cargo when you need to, Mars only offer a window every 2 years, and you need 6 month of travel, if they forget something before the flight they are dead. what we will certainly see however is either a full demo flight, from going to leaving, then multiple lauches to send materials to prepare a base. Also target date for heavy was 2013 (or 2011 i dont remember well), and it has only flown 3 times to this day ... so only 2 years of delay is a bit short ^^ All thing short, the human factor will cause a masive delay, and it is better that way.
I was a senior in college when I watched this event live. Having seen the fully stacked IFT-3 orbital test after just 4 short years (or 4 very long years depending on your perspective) I can't help but reflect on the batshit insane progress the talent at SpaceX has made. The flying water tower. The flying grain silo. The first high altitude launch of SN8. Absolutely incredible work.
@@wilboersma9441 my guess: unburned gases exit nozzle while throttling down the engine. Those gases maybe mix outside the burning chamber and ignite therr
It looked like they only fired the RCS to roll a few degrees and then null out the roll rate...almost like they did it on purpose and wouldn’t have even needed them otherwise.
Has it really only been 3 years? Commenting this on the Eve of starships first potential orbital launch, i find it just surreal how far we've come, and how far we'll go.
I'd say a big problem since the first stage, ie Super Heavy, is supposed to have 31 Raptors so if 35 are firing there will be some cookage. Good thing Starship looks vaguely like a pressure cooker. Get some rice and beans in there before the first test, it is in Texas after all ;~)
@@pegasusted2504 Nah Elon's been changing around the number of engines all month. We're up to 35 engines and possibly 36 with a config where a few engines are on the landing gear pods. Although only 21 engine on the first few flights in case something goes wrong. Thrust is up too, now they want to have the standard 200 ton Raptors as the 7 gimballed engines in the middle and the outer fixed rings of engine are supposed to be 250 ton thrust versions of Raptor that can't be throttled. And launch mass is up too, around 500 tons and possibly a stretch in height. We're gonna have to wait until mid September for Elon's update since right now the design is changing on a daily basis.
@@pegasusted2504 that's how he's going to get more thrust from the booster. Fill with super chilled propellant, and then use the heat from the upper stage engines to super pressurize it!

Burned all of it likely, the put in the amount needed maybe a little more but the landing required a amount of weight not too heavy not too light but they likely made sure not to add too much fuel
Well, most of that stability is the power of automatic control theory. Surely an impressive work, but it's not something new that stuff is able to self-balance. The everexisting error still freaks me out because it simply could, and is unavoidable, fail while people are inside it; but unless it explodes midair, at least there will be safety measures (but yet again, aren't there in planes too, which still create many victims? Funny fact is, I'm scared of seeing both planes and this from the outside, even when turned off, but once inside, at least planes don't give me any kind of anxiety, despite the possibility of faults). There's not only an intrinsic uncertainty and thus an error that, despite being reduced by feedback, could imply malfunctions, but there's also humans' errors... Just keep in mind that a rocket exploded midair only because of a single bit error representation of a floating number - stuff that honestly could happen. Fortunately, we now have AI to at least check our work... Wondering if it's enough though, given the limited nature of memories.
It is surreal. Because it’s unprecedented. People cannot believe how fast the sensors, engines, gymbals etc have to react to keep this thing moving whilst upright. The amount of compute required.... not possible 20 years ago.
50 years ago was actually quite unprecedented. The hardware space craft run on was unthinkable, especially the processors. With the kind of tools and hardware we have today it's almost not an excuse.
Here, one and half years later, as Starship is fully stacked at Boca Chica, using the Chopsticks. Nearly ready for flight! From humble beginnings of this test flight to the Real Deal!
@@tawabunny NASA and all other space agencies have confirmed that sending a man outside of earth's orbit (and keeping him alive outside of earth's orbit) is impossible. That's why there is no lunar base. If you can't get to the moon, you can't get to Mars. There are multiple NASA videos on youtube with testimony from NASA engineers/astronaut attesting to the fact.
Way too sci-fi for my taste. I mean, look at how that rising dust cloud is totally unaffected by the rocket blast. Take a second look and you'll see what I mean. Looks too magic, too Hollywood.
trendisup you haven’t spent much time around jet engines with focused thrust have you? Similar principles apply to this rocket engine. I’ve been around Harrier jets that have four main nozzles and they effect the atmosphere in the same way.
I was sort of thinking the same thing, while I watched this sick video! It really them reminds me a lot of the old sci-fi movies of the 50s - Buck Rogers and even the 1902 film, Trip to the Moon, etc.
As I reflect on the past, I didn't realize or even know to realize the significance of this test. Now that I know, my previous comment is irrelevant. SO, here's an updated comment: "DAMN!!! DAMN!!! DAMN!!! THAT.. WAS.. FRICKEN AWESOME (AF)!!!"

Funny fact is, I'm scared of seeing both planes and this from the outside, even when turned off, but once inside, at least planes don't give me any kind of anxiety, despite the possibility of faults). There's not only an intrinsic uncertainty and thus an error that, despite being reduced by feedback, could imply malfunctions, but there's also humans' errors... Just keep in mind that a rocket exploded midair only because of a single bit error representation of a floating number - stuff that honestly could happen. Fortunately, we now have AI to at least check our work... Wondering if it's enough though, given the limited nature of memories.
@@Speed4Runs yes cars/rockets/planes/bikes/anything can fail and kill you
Came back after watching the Starship SN5 150m hop. Truly amazing!
This is the stepping stone to the actual legitimate spaceships we see in movies. We are witnessing history being made.
Congratulations spaceX for the success. The teams of yours are fantastic
Other companies will be like, "ELON MUSK WAS ABLE TO BUILD THIS IN A FIELD.....WITH A BUNCH OF SCRAPS!"
Well, "we're not Elon Musk"
@Will Isom this is referencing a line from the first iron man movie lol
@Will Isom r/woosh
with a bunch of scraps* would be more accurate

It is surreal. Because it’s unprecedented. People cannot believe how fast the sensors, engines, gymbals etc have to react to keep this thing moving whilst upright. The amount of compute required.... not possible 20 years ago.
50 years ago was actually quite unprecedented. The hardware space craft run on was unthinkable, especially the processors. With the kind of tools and hardware we have today it's almost not an excuse.
anyone here after SN20 got stacked?
someone gotta reply with yes, eventually
I will always be here. Starhopper is the cool grandpa that has repeatedly outlived his grandkids. Legend.
yes
Sure am
That was amazing. I still have chills. Its not everyday you see the future
Uh, well...
I mean yeah... It is every day
Can we just mention how this is on trending? It's a cherry-on-top for an amazing accomplishment
Is not*

Lol
Love that they're expanding they're space vehicles to not just a rocket ship. I don't think it'll be long before we're exploring other planets.
Water tower: “aight ima head out”
Elon musk and his spacex team making reality way more cooler than fiction.
I'm still waiting to hear them team up with Boston Dynamics and give us a real life Wall-E
Making it cooler than non fiction that’s for sure
Sorry for tapping dislike Button, i tried stabilize likes to 666 but it doesn't seem to work that way

I remember this day ! I was so happy this test was a success :) YAY ! THIS IS AMAZING !!!
The precision... this is amazing
a casual flying silo. space farmers these days...
Me in starcraft when i need to move my command center lol
Right? For when the herd is too privileged and lazy to move anymore
Omg ur fucking genius, why don't we have flying silo's.
NOW THIS IS WHY SPACEX IS THE ONLY YT CHANNEL I'VE HIT THE BELL FOR
omg so same!
yeah, me too, only one i care that much

From flying water tank to orbiting a starship on the 3rd try… SpaceX has really grown and fast
Here, one and half years later, as Starship is fully stacked at Boca Chica, using the Chopsticks. Nearly ready for flight! From humble beginnings of this test flight to the Real Deal!
We are days away from 24/7
@@jaredupchurch7819 In hindsight you were wrong but who the f**k cares
Very smooth thrust vectoring, it almost look too easy ;) Great job to all the Space X Team, an Elon!! 1 step closer to Mars :)
I was very impressed with this new engine. It seems to work very well and the variable thrust control appears to be working very smoothly.
If you understand even just 5% of space travel, you will understand that no man will ever step foot on Mars, NEVER.
@@DEO777 Care to elaborate?
@@DEO777 oh because the earth is flat and space travel doesnt exist I see
@@tawabunny NASA and all other space agencies have confirmed that sending a man outside of earth's orbit (and keeping him alive outside of earth's orbit) is impossible. That's why there is no lunar base. If you can't get to the moon, you can't get to Mars. There are multiple NASA videos on youtube with testimony from NASA engineers/astronaut attesting to the fact.
That is the most sci-fi IRL thing I have ever seen. Thank you Elon!
Thanks Elon, very cool!
Way too sci-fi for my taste. I mean, look at how that rising dust cloud is totally unaffected by the rocket blast. Take a second look and you'll see what I mean. Looks too magic, too Hollywood.
Start here and look closely: 0:16
trendisup you haven’t spent much time around jet engines with focused thrust have you? Similar principles apply to this rocket engine. I’ve been around Harrier jets that have four main nozzles and they effect the atmosphere in the same way.
I was sort of thinking the same thing, while I watched this sick video! It really them reminds me a lot of the old sci-fi movies of the 50s - Buck Rogers and even the 1902 film, Trip to the Moon, etc.
Who here after the successful launch? 2020 is an amazing year
I disagree with the last part of the comment... But 31 may and 1 june 2020 is amazing... That is something I have to admit...
Heat Bringa Beats well you should say that the rocket launch was the most amazing thing this year because this year sucked
@@axeldewater9491 I disagree with ur middle line in 31 and 1 June there where 8000+ cases founded in our state
@@imamangoo8632 youre more worried about the casses then the protests?!
What did you just say
Good times and now that Starship did it's 150 meter hop, Lets all pray we don't have to wait another year for the next big test. 👍🙏
7 test flights in 2 years (SN5, SN6, SN8, SN9, SN10, SN11, and SN 15).
Meanwhile, in 2022. . . .

Fabulous flight. Awesomely beautiful thrust vectoring from the Raptor engine!
Jeff who?
@Mike Hawk 10 meters i think
@Mike Hawk 9m diameter
You mean its a Ford Raptor engine??
@@RBZ06LT6 He meant SpaceX Raptor: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raptor_(rocket_engine_family)
As I reflect on the past, I didn't realize or even know to realize the significance of this test. Now that I know, my previous comment is irrelevant. SO, here's an updated comment:
"DAMN!!! DAMN!!! DAMN!!! THAT.. WAS.. FRICKEN AWESOME (AF)!!!"
Amazing to see how the engine adjusts the propulsion angle visible in the thruster exhausts.
The delayed water jet after landing reminded me of the scene from Iron Man 1 with the belated extinguisher blast from the incompetent robot.
Amazing precission. This looked super stable and controlled.
Great Job SpaceX
It was this livestream that tought me what if feels like to be truly amazed by something.
Damn I can't believe its been 2 years
“yeah sure i will, when water towers fly”
needless to say i got that 20 dollars
The most ridiculous and awesome thing I have seen this week. Elon Musk you crazy man I love you.
Anorax only this week?? you must have a lot of crazy things going on dude
I think someone will make a desktop cigar lighter model and make a small fortune.
@@user-re8jn7iz3f I work in customer support. I see crazy stuff every week.
I can’t believe they actually dood it. Unreal. Congratulations to the 55th power.

Who’s here after spacex’s sn8 launch/rapid disassembly!!
Yes
And SN9
And SN10
And SN11
Absolutely incredible! 👏
