    We have a SUPER jam-packed episode, with lots of exciting progress being made at Starbase for the 4th flight of Starship as Ship 29 conducts a massive static fire test! There have also been some really interesting orbital launches too, including a lunar support mission from China, a Starshield Mission from SpaceX, and a crewed launch to the ISS from Roscosmos. Furthermore, NASA are making headway with their Artemis and Lunar Gateway Program, and we’re about to say goodbye forever to one of the greatest rockets of all time. All of this and a whole lot more, enjoy!
    This video is intended for audiences 13+ years old.

      No chance. I will call success if booster keep attitude during reentry and will be able to reignite engines and kill majority of velocity, and if ship will have control of attitude in vac and during re-entry, and will be able to ignite engines in space. I don't count for soft splashdown of booster before ift5. Surviving re-entry for ship (not soft splashdown/bellyflip) before next starship will be build with next gen of thermal protection tiles that we saw 3 months ago on test rig

After that, you can maybe consider it operational. Though tbh I hope they don't make the mistake of declaring it operational at all, because that word breeds complacency at NASA - as we saw with the Shuttle.

    SpaceX would _very much_ have liked to have been able to fly the Booster 4 stack, but unfortunately this was during that time when the FAA infamously took the majority of a _year_ to do a single review. Nowadays, SpaceX shapes their schedule around the FAA's anticipated heel-dragging, but back then, they had little choice but to iterate new vehicles without actually flying anything and getting that very, very valuable flight data.

    Emergency!!! THE ONLY SOTUTION!
    Baffles will not work to prevent the fuel slushing problem, because the tanks of the starship system are too large. That is the only reason why the starship will explode every time.
    The solution:
    The tanks of Starship and Superheavy need 2 disk valves, expanding the diameter of each tank. One of the disks, the one on top, rotates above the contiguous disk to close the overlaping holes on the surface of the disks; to reduce the Size of the tank by dividing it, before any rotation or acceleration of the rocket. This will prevent slushings and protect the plumbing, if located 10% above the bottom section of each tank. Large telescopic pistons can be attached below the bottom of disk valves to control the fuel pressure as the piston expands into the fuel tank.
    I have built a model that works perfectly. The second disk valve can be located 10% below the front of the tank, to also protect the front of the tanks from the slushing forces.
    The gridfins are too flat and too small to be effective enough and will not be able to control the booster.
    Why is Elon not using four pins instead of three to secure each heat shield tyle? Four anchor points provide far more stability to secure a tyle, not three.What is more important than securing the heat shield? Four anchor points would eliminate the problems of tyles falling off the ship every time there is an engine ignition. Please get this message to Elon. Thank you.
    Also, Spacex needs 3 actuators to move the payload bay doors correctly, not two. They have only two now, one at each end of the payload bay. They need one at the center position. Three will guarantee that there will always be enough support to open and close the doors, even if one of the three fails. I know the spacex engineers can see these problems. It is like ignoring the elephant in the room. Musk needs to hire people who can be trusted and who will not continue accepting bribes from Jeff Bozo to sabotage spacex.
