I gotta say, seeing the two boosters land upright and coordinated gives me goosebumps! Incredible.
Wild isn't it
I remember when the blastoff was the most exciting part.
Agree. Seems like science fiction. I supose the central booster landed safe on the ship too?
@@benjaznow the center core had no grid fins or landing legs, it launched expendable.
@@scolley0616 Thanks 4 the info!. Any plans to make it reusable too?
Never gets old
Wasted money...It might be better to spend on SS or elderly people than throw money in this worthless “space exploration “ garbage 🎉!!!!!!!
Freaks whealty democreeps go to hell🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
yes.
Absolutely, still looks and seems unreal that it’s possible. Extreme innovation
@@thunderpants007 yes it does. Glad we were here for the beginning of it. Have a good one!!
Agreed, always cool to see a rocket take off
Once again Spacex shows why they are the number 1 rocket company in the world.
And it's not even close. They are more productive than sll of the others combined
My many thanks to the great crew at SpaceX, you guys are out of this world.
Most of them stay in this world🤣
@@rp4187 and?
@@jacob476it's astounding how a private company can beat the government agencies around the world with a fraction of their budget
The engineering expertise involved to recover those boosters is mind blowing.......
I’d disagree. It’s just coordination and balance with computers between gps, speedometer, angle, wind, grid fins, height, turbines and prob a lot more Im unaware of. At a certain height the computers tell the engines to fire at a certain rate, if not level the grid fins move to a certain place to bring it back to level. Seems to be an interplay between computers and a load of sensors.
I feel that it wasn’t ever done till now was because it’s VERY expensive and no one had the money or the vision till Elons team figured it out. The hardest part imo is just the initial experimenting with what works and what doesn’t. It’s why once they found out the correct formula it just doesn’t fail. They gone years without a single failure.
oh you have absolutely no idea, a hint that its far from easy is the fact that noone is doing it except spacex. nasa has the governments budget and isnt doing it, and also the landing doesnt come just from computers, the invention of raptor engine series was a crucial part and more@amous
@@Jumpingjackflash123well the hardest part from my personal research and non degreed view, would definitely be the throttling and gimbaling of the engines with perfect precision and no variance in thrust delivery. directing it would be the grid fins as mentioned, and a gyroscope.
The fascinating thing is
I used to watch sci fi as a kid in the 60s-on... Most rocket launches and landings were similar to this. It thrills me to see that humanity has made my dreams a reality. I am so proud to have lived long enough to see Space X.
You are still watching science fiction
@@watermanglenn1aww someone doesn't like to live in reality and accept the universe around them. Keep living like a neanderthal bro 🙏🏻
Amazing everytime, 2 rockets landing at same time. The sonic boom is epic. Great time to be living with all the tech. I hope I live long enough to see footsteps on Mars and a lunar base.
I'm right there with you! Hopefully we live to see the day! 🤞🏻
It’s pretty impressive watching those boosters fall back to earth and then land on a pad within metres of each other. I have trouble backing into a spot with cameras assisting. They’ve certainly come a long way in 60 years or so. 👍👍
Booster landing still look like magic
Was an amazing launch today and the double sonic boom was still powerful when it reached us a few miles away. What a day👍👍
yes.
Incredible liftoff and re entry of those boosters. Sonic boom caught beautifully.
It's impressive and beautiful situation.Crazy technique and precise begin and finish...Great job Space X. Thanks Elon Musk to show the world that everything is possible....👍👍👏👏
Wow! Watching those boosters return to the planet is a marvel.
Despite the wars in Ukraine and Israel and more, watching a space rocket launch brings me happiness.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Beautiful music from those boosters landing! And they're standing by ready to go on another mission, Can't wait for Starship!
I miss the onscreen launch telemetry data. Specifically speed and altitude.
So exciting! The landing seemed perfect! Wow!
Once again SpaceX has done a great job for NASA. I really am wondering why the launch of Starship is artificially blocked by US agencies, while NASA urgently needs SpaceX to succeed for their Moon and Mars projects, which are of national and international importance. Why is their no pushing from the government in favor of space flight, like it was in the 1960s? I just can't get it.
Cuz musk knows what a man and a woman is
Politics.
Elon bought Twitter, stopped the stupid censorship. But the WOKE depends on the censorship for crowd control.
Look back at 2023, the wheels have fallen off the bus for the Dems. They can not drive a narrative anymore.
If Starship becomes operational then SpaceX owns aerospace. The problem is SpaceX already owns aerospace.
Same with Tesla, if they allow FSD even limited with Level 4 autonomy it would be huge. But when you factor the falling prices for Tesla and the expected rise in gas prices with the middle east getting antsy. Tesla already has the best selling car on the planet today.
So while the Democrats try to throw monkey wrenches in Elon's path to slow him down. SpaceX & Tesla are already world beaters with the ability to do much more.
Watching those booster landings never get old. SpaceX has been doing it for 8 years and I yet to see anyone else even at the test stage.
Why is that?
It's probably some kind of Government hostage scenario over control of StarShield deployment... and costs.
Nothing, literally nothing is straightforward
Because spacex was incredibly reckless when blowing up the last launched craft of that type. Knew that would likely nneed to destroy the thing and did so at an altitude that would ensure problems upon the "landing" of the wreckage. They found concrete chunks on a beach miles away as well as cincrete and rebard stewn accross tidal flats. A beach used by loggerhead sea turtles, an endangered species. The explosion started started a grass fire in a state park as well. When officials there to investigate we finally allowed in after more than 48 later they found the launch pad had been completely destroyed, which raised suspicion that the pad was not of the necessary construction (no blast channel???) to support such a launch. Thus, a redesign and construction of the pad was begun and would take time. All of this is easily found on the internet but you can't figure out why the delay in launching #2????
Blame is not with any agencies, it's with spacex and it's assumption that they can do what ever they want. Clearly, it can not
@@zekethedego I hope those loggerhead sea turtles know what they are doing... and hurry up about it.
This NEVER gets old... CONGRATS !
Nice job space X . Now would the FAA please get the hell out of the way
elon needs to buy FAA, (joke)
Wow those 2 boosters landing don't even seem real, like I was watching a movie. crazy
And that is a routine Falcon launch - propulsive landings just about every time. 😊
Space X be like this is our mid size sedan.
Haha this is a magnificent massive rocket. Watching the boosters land is absolutely phenomenal. 🎉🖖👍
That's one Falcon Heavy rocket you got there bud.
It's beautiful to see the falcón heavy launch the Psyche ❤
Psyche is the name of the "weird metal asteroid".
Awesome launch! 27 engines strong 😊
yes.
Best operational rocket ever
Spacex Recovering boosters is incredible
Boosters coming back in covered in vapor looked sweet.
First time I heard the sonic boom during a SpaceX launch.
W O W. everytime its just amazing watching the landings.
I was watching this while I was in school. It was amazing!
Must be two different worlds, as I watched psyche launch on Thursday morning!!!!
I'd like to say, powerful engine, my table shook with it, great Space X
This is still science fiction as far as I'm concerned. Just wow! Great job Space X
Falcon heavy's are so beautiful at night
Bravo, SpaceX!
almost unbelievable! wonderful and awe-inspiring
Love the falcon launches. GO SPACE X
Awesome as usual
my name is Ibrahim, I’m Chechen, I want to say this is a huge job without a lot of effort, it’s just smart, not only smart, immensely smart people, I want to say thank you to everyone who worked in this project and who supported in this matter, soon we will be richer than ever
This is some of the best audio I have heard of the dual Sonic booms as the boosters are coming in to land. Really cool.
On another note, imagine being so deluded that you questioned this stuff, and can't find any enjoyment out of it
The day I was born no human had ever ventured into space, less than a month later a great Russian achieved that honor. Rockets are not supposed to land back where they launched from. We live in amazing times. I cant express enough gratitude for the men and women who make these things happen. It is truly inspiring.
Thank you.
JUST AWESOME
So utterly inspirational
So good, so clever.
wow they are getting better.
Beautiful.
awesome congrats guys
why did we not see speed and height telemetry? and we also did not see any cameras on the boosters like we have in the past. Still love watching this. Way to go SpaceX!
I think it's because this was a NASA launch not a SpaceX.
Gotta love Falcon Heavy
Badass as always.
Amazing Engineering. Incredible Talent. Space X is the future for NASA and the future for Humanity in general.
Wish spacex would be back on UA-cam with their channel.
Perfection.
The landing was so firee🔥. I wanna see it live sometime. I'm impressed with the complex calculations that makes that possible🤔. Hoping for success on future projects.
Simply amazing sight
Sem palavras isso não tem preço grata por poder assistir essa importante transmissão em tempo real no aguardo das próximas
Wow that was fantastic geez spacex has got that down to a fine art, the sonic booms never get old ,very impressive stuff ,that would be an incredible sight to see first hand feeling the thunderous noise and vibrations go through your body, wow you could sell tickets to that and it would be a sold out event every time, 👍👍👍
I watched that in person it was sick if you haven't seen a rocket you need to
👇
The Earth looks round from these shots.
So routine, such clockwork. Fabulous!
Not use to seeing a rocket land, feels like my mind is seeing backwards.
Great job..
Na tomhle startu jsem byl na Mysu Canaveral. Supr zážitek. Ten den večer startoval ještě Falcon 9. Dva starty za den. No paráda.
Vai Falcon! Vai! MARAVILHA! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations 👏👏👏👍
Great launch but those two could just shut the hell up for more than 2 seconds
Good job SpaceX!!
They oughta throw a couple of astro Nots in that spaceship, lmao!
I really do want to go see one of those lift off.
THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING FOOTAGE OF A VIEW THAT I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WITH THE PUBLIC. I HOPE THE OREGON MCMINNVILLE SPACE MUSEUM CAN GET SOME KIND OF A DISPLAY AND MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THESE EXCITING NEW ADVENTURES. AMAZING WORK❤ THE RETURN BACK TO EARTH WAS PERFECTLY LANDED 😃😃😍😍😍 WOW!!
The radio chatters always sound awesome 🎉
Amazing
amazing rocket liftoff ... 0:26 I saw a black fire like Amaterasu
❤ Space X ❤
I believe you heard I don't believe you actually felt that sonic boom from where you're sitting
I get butterflies every single time 😊
All I can say is WOW!!!😛
amazing 👏 ❤
Missing the telemetry!!!!😢
Where does Spacex broadcast their own launches? No more YT live coverage from Spacex.
Great comments.
Always like new.
If only they could land the center core on a drone ship.. 💪🏻
My family watched this from Melbourne Pier.
Is the quality still good on X?
Why no telemetry display?
We don't return the center booster?
Wow
2:01 super throttled up
We've come a long way Baby 😊
I've now lived long enough to see Tom Swift-like rockets fly. Thanks Elon.
That’s some crazy shit.
พลเรือนไม้ติดอาวุธ เก่งมากครับครู
love that raspy noise.
What happened to the SpaceX coverage of all their launches on UA-cam?
Its on X now
@@michubern1444
Thanks
What happens with the center stage unit when it separates?
Re-enters the atmosphere... breaks up... remnants land in the ocean and are now at the bottom of the sea.
My stage name at Chippendales is Max Q.
wow i cant believe i missed it stupid youtube i mostly follow space stuff and it didnt show me this untill now
