      I recently watched a video from SmarterEveryDay where he showed one of his talks about his criticisms of Artemis III. One of the points mentioned in the video is that Artemis would require refuelling in earth orbit in order to make it to the moon, and apparently AT LEAST 15 different starships would need to be launched in order to transfer enough fuel if they carry on with the current plans. I think this is probably some infrastructure being created in preparation to create the rockets needed for the refuelling. While i doubt its the main reason, its definitely a motivation.

    One small comment about the video- your graphics depicts Elon’s vision as a lot of starship + super heavies. In reality, however- few super heavies are needed as they RTLS immediately after launch and the Starships stay in orbit or go to a different planet. There will most likely be a ratio of at least 10:1 super heavy to Starship (my guess). Otherwise good video.

      Hurricane Harvey was a Cat 4 that came ashore near Boca Chica and went inland a ways before backing out and continuing up the coast dropping a record amount of rain along the way. Another storm like Harvey would make a mess of the launch pad and Starbase. Probably not catastrophic, but a big mess none the less. Now if it is a high Cat 5 like Wilma in 2005 then it might be ball game over for the Boca Chica facility.

    The more reusable rockets there are, the cheaper space travel will be later in the future. This also means wear and tear per rocket, more maintenance times as you can just switch them out. The goal is to make space travel relatively cheaper

    FAA has a regulatory role to play, but that FAA is taking months for Spacex launch approvals is pathetic way for safety monitoring of rocket launches and is no way to run a country. If FAA is undermanned that is their problem - but if their bureaucratic approval is delaying space programs it is Americas problem. FAA shud hire mature experienced staff on merit, instead of this DEI nonsense.

    • @michaeldeierhoi4096
      @michaeldeierhoi4096 9 місяців тому

      The reality here is that in this current moment the FAA hasn't delayed the launch of the next starship at all simply because Space X isn't ready. As one example, two WDR's were recently aborted for unspecified reasons indicating more work to assess what wasn't working properly.
      In addition it was Space X that was late getting the explanation of corrective action for the anomalies with ITF-2 TO THE FAA that was required of them to get a license to launch.

    It took awhile for them to even come up with a launch pad which ended up ruining the vast majority of their missions with the rockets vaporizing the sediment underneath and causing a cloud of short-circuiting dust to cover the rocket and break it every time.

I think that might be an interesting topic for you to cover in a video but I have seen the promotional videos that have been put out by spacex and others. None of those constitute an actual plan.

      Mars is the big magilla, but there are numerous other uses that will be used for and many not even thought of yet. But for starters Space X is working with other companies to build a large space station. The US space Force would like to use some starships for military purposes. Many astronomers are drolling at the idea of launching massive telescope into space using the huge starship internal space.

    Do you suppose that SpaceX has enough room in order to continue adding these gigantic buildings in a long row like the Giga plant from Tesla? And if that's the case, I wonder if they plan on creating hundreds of the mega storage buildings kind of like you would see for a storage company just having 100s of storage plots for you to rent.. Because that's basically what they will need to do if they want to have any kind of hope of getting to hundreds of these things. I could imagine where they have this entire building and then 100 feet or maybe 10 feet 50 feet I don't know over, they build another building that's exactly the same and then off to the side just having rows and Columns of the storage facilities. Could you imagine how cool that would look.
