Thank you
This camera shot of the booster separation and then exploding is insane
If only NASA and the Air Force had HD4K back in the 1960s.
@@rwboa22they had infinitely better than that in the 1960s
"rapid unscheduled disassembly" is my new favourite expression :)
So unreal to think that they successfully made a battleship sized rocket do a backflip at those speed to return for landing. This is really impressive to watch
the atmospheric drag is pretty low at 70-75 km altitude, but it look awesome anyway
@@davidstevenson9517do you think for it to be succesful it'd have to invent a cure for cancer or smth?
@@davidstevenson9517At the first launch it spinned several times. And at the much lower altitude. Half the engines didn't work. Now it's separated the stages. All the engines worked well at a glance. For SpaceX and their data it's objectively a win. Yeah, it didn't make the whole mission or smth, but that's why they can launch it twice a year, and not once in ten years
half the engines didn’t ignite and it exploded, but they are getting close
@@davidstevenson9517 yeah but trial and errors are meant to be like that.
Those raptors performed exactly how they were designed and then some! ALL 33!!!! Then for the flip after hot staging like that was a SUPER PLUS!
the really difficult part is still ahead though, for the whole plan to work this has to happen many many times with little to no failures at all, but it is a great feat to achieve this on the 2nd attempt, would have even be 1st, if they didn't rush the pad
until it blew up you mean ;)
Until there was a fuel leak lol
@@jebes909090 calm down, they ONLY made it to staging
calm down, they ONLY made it to orbital velocity
calm down, they ONLY made it to low earth orbit
calm down, they ONLY made it to high earth orbit
calm down, they ONLY made it to the moon
calm down, they ONLY made to mars
🤡🤡🤡
3:01 At stage separation you can see three Booster Heavy rockets still firing, as intended. Then there is the call "Boost back startup" where the second ring of engines are supposed to start, but one does not according to the GUI graphic on the lower left, and then shortly after one of the center 3 engines goes out. It was probably cascading failures from that point.
The 3 engines were supposed to keep firing and they did. Overall, a success. Getting the super heavy booster back to land would have been icing on the cake. Maybe next time.
Those 3 were supposed to stay lit during separation
@@Datareel Yes, but clearly there were issues getting all the other engines started for boost back. A lot of data for them to go through but a great test!
The fact that all of the 33 engines lit successfully blew my mind, I couldn't comprehend what I was seeing, it was amazing. What a successful test flight!
😂
I think most of the engines not working during1st flight was due to being hit by debris during launch. Deluge system seems to have done an amazing job prevent this to happen.
Sadly after the flip following the hotstage this luck didn't continue. You can see several engines failing as well as multiple explosions, which are quickly followed by a rud
@@Kaynos SpaceX confirmed, that no debres was responsible for any failure on the first launch
@@arctrix765I think the flip was too violent
just experienced a "rapid, unscheduled disassembly" brilliant
They said something similar over the live PA system when Challenger was seen exploding a minute after launch in 1986.
I'm surprised the booster started it's boost back turn so quickly. Maybe a slower turn around would put less stress on the booster and allow the 3 raptors to keep burning properly.
starship pushed it way too much
It have lot of inertia at the bottom because of lot of engine on it
I think too.much stress was put on the booster, that was a quick flup.
The booster produced additional thrust that made them go up and faster than turning around just like what Falcon 9 does.... if they could just use the 3 gimbaled engines, the grid fins, and the propellant thrusters.....
Starship pushed it, made it do a 180 flip.
that wave blast just before separation looks like something they would cgi in a sci fi movie
Unbelievably cool. Amazing that they made it to a successful hot separation. The RUD was something else!
It's just a matter of time before the RUD becomes obsolete.
@@handsomeman-pm9vy yeah they'll nail the engineering soon enough
forget the "nominal" performance,that was "phenominal" in my book,well done to all involved,you made history today for sure.
It blew up?
You have a poor sense of achievement
Amazing stuff!
Such an epic lunch. The sunrise lighting up starship as it makes it was to space is just unbelievable!
40 yrs ago we did this all the time.
@@Crow44195 i bet people even did lunch thousands of years ago ;)
What did you have for lunch
From California here, it was about 5 am when they launched the rocket. I had lunch before the launch.
@@Chips-Dubbo, tenesto had rocks for brain🧠 food 😊
Judging from SH engines activating after hot stage, the flip seemed to have been to extreme potentially causing a severe flame-out on the engines while pushing all the fuel to one side and leak leading to the RUD
Yeah. Bad propellant feeding is the fastest way to kill an engine.
That's what I think
I agree, you can see that it appears some of the engines explode at the rear during the maneuver and then it appears the explosion starts right where the FTS is located.
what the hell is RUD
@@thesauce1682 Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly
@ 3:00 that is literally one of the coolest things I have ever seen when the last stage separates and you see the blast wave
All soviet rockets hot stage, watch some Soyuz launch videos to see more.
@@owensmith7530 Not all. Like Energiya for example
@@RocketPal OK, most soviet rockets hot stage. Possibly all that are in current service.
The fact that engines workout perfectly is huge + in the book,this ship was first to reach space guys, amazing day🎉🥳🎉
10/10 it looks like they nailed the automated disassembly.
The super heavy booster explosion was beautiful
2:42 Is it me or does the vehicle appear to yaw/change direction at this point? You could even hear nervousness in the crowd because of it, I think. If so, it's impressive that they were still able to separate the stage and still fire the Starship engines, but may explain why the Starship flight was later terminated.
I think it's actually a pitch down, the tracking cameras almost always show a view thats been rotated 90 degrees
All the engines worked! Not one of them failed for the launch, although some of them might have failed near the end before then booster terminates. Proves all the people who said 30 was too many engines quite wrong.
I think hot staging flipped it out of control which causes the fuel to float in the tanks.
They are supposed to be reusable. So it's a long way until we can say they are reliable for launch after launch. It's almost to good to be true if they work.
@@lubricustheslippery5028 nah, just a few adjustments and it'll be fine. Fuel slosh because the booster flipped too fast got the booster most likely from "water hammer" effect on the engine plumbing or fuel outlet was uncovered from floating fuel. Starship self terminated from either being off course or unable to make contact with ground stations. I'd say they'll drop the hot staging soon. It was kinda a guarantee way starship would separate and have no fuel slosh.
@@Bryan-HensleyIf you don't hot stage you either need ullage motors like Saturn 5 used, which are solid rockets and not re-usable plus cost weight, or you need the crazy spin the entire stack to separate as used on the first Starship flight. Neither is likely to be attractive to SpaceX.
@@owensmith7530 how does falcon 9 do it without hot staging
"a rapid, unschedualed, disassembly." Well, that's a new one.
Propulsion guy, here. Could not be happier with Raptor performance. First stage all engines nominal. Big relief.
Rapid unscheduled disassembly, wow, I'm glad they're not sugar coating anything.
RUDhas been used for decades as an amusing reference to blowing up.
I would have rather they just said “explosion,” but at least they didn’t act like nothing happened.
Aw man, where is the photo of the booster explosion as seen from rearward facing camera on the upper stage?
I was shouting Whoooohooo!!!!! Go Starship!!! When it took off! I was super excited! That was much better than the first launch.
Well, this time it lifted off about 6 secs. after ignition instead of blasting the pad to rubble for 10+ secs. last time.
'The super heavy booster has just experienced a rapid unscheduled dissassembly" ~ I guess that's one way of putting it!
Fabulous coverage.
Incredible
At least the struts were quick
I cant imagine the enginners joy after seing the 2nd stage reaching space
“calm down, they ONLY got off the pad” ✅
“calm down, they ONLY made it to staging” ✅
“calm down, they ONLY made it to orbital velocity”
@@davidstevenson9517 you try making the largest and most powerful rocket ever created and also make it fully reusable
@davidstevenson9517
"55 years of experience" But doesn't know trial and error.
Nice vídeo thank you ❤
Thank You SPACEX
It always makes me emotional hearing the SpaceX team roar.
When the booster separated they cheered. Then when we saw it effectively turn around to come home, a massive roar.
It looked epically awesome. 😭
So improved! This time, no engine failures like the last time and reached higher!
Great launch hopefully next time we can see that booster touch down
Nice job on that vid !
Nice video.
Can u provide SpaceX Stream Link
Well done guys!!!
I live in Brownsville about 20 min drive from the site and the roar of the sound shook my house like crazy. It woke me up as I was sleeping !😂
Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly ?, how about a CATO ?
Great launch guys...😎😎😎
imagine if we later found out the only reason it separated was because the sensors detected an issue so it dipped asap
The launchpad hold, water deluge system worked good, stage separation worked. This can be called good progress. Problemsolving now lies in a part of the flight they never reached before. Step by step they are getting there
This is such a big day for history! Congrats Elon and the spacex team!
رووووعة، مع تمنياتنا بالتوفيق في التجربة القادمة.
amazing
Amazing
Amazing view 😍🙏💕
"A rapid, unscheduled disassembly." XD
Remember watching similar stuff 60 years ago
I don't understand why they started so many engines during the flip, this was very ambitious of them. It would have been better to do the flip with just the 3 engines that were already running and then once stabilized, attempt to light the rest.
Does it seem like 1 of the gridfins is missing? 2:15
Stopping the frames at the instant of RUD is looked like the Flight Termination system fired. I wonder if the flip was beyond the expected maneuver and triggered the RUD.
It seems the flip caused a fuel starvation issued as someone mentioned here.
@@cocodalishThat sounds about right given how the engines went out in a very asymmetric pattern.
Why didn't you hold the screen recording of SpaceX's stream until the second stage RUD?

Amazing 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Fabulous achievement 100% clean burn all way to staging and that flip!. Wonder how launch pad coped this time.
damn, flying dil... uhh pencil with 33/33, impressive
Looks like an engine RUD at 3:34, you can see some debris fly out of the engine bay followed by fts activation.
I already know what happened to the booster after stage separation.
after sep. there was an issue with ullage and it made all of the engines malfunction
Well they seems to solve problem with engines failure during liftoff, fixed self destruction system on first stage and launch pad seems fine. Basically all problems from first test launch.
Now to the next iteration of problems.
красивое фаершоу . не из дешовых. интересно был ли массогабаритный груз ? или ????
Rapid unscheduled disassembly- it blew up.
IT didn't blow up. It had a successful launch and a RUD. This was the biggest success humanity has ever achived.
Does anybody know what time the spacemen arrive on Mars?
@@davidstevenson9517 China, russia and india have no vehicles capable of sending humans to mars. Starship might actually do it in late 2030's.
the engines couldn't handle the increased pressure from the air ram effect
No disassembly, number 5...alive!
Third launch will be even better!
Maybe, maybe not
@@davidstevenson9517 Hopefully
0:47 you can see some tiles missing
i missed the live so im here

Зажигательный полёт
does the booster explosion was planned ?
No, it was supposed to make a soft water landing.
oky and what happened with main part of rocket ? it landed ?@@SciNewsRo
No, also lost th-cam.com/video/86n_MqqpBfc/w-d-xo.html
@SciNewsRo thanks. Very sad for explosions but this launch was better then first one.
people talked a lot of crap about sls, but nasa did one launch one success and even managed to orbit stuff around the moon with it. now spacex is 2/2 failiures for starship.
Because it is crap. What NASA did will not happen again due to very high cost and can only launch One per year. Get it through your thick skull, that kind of progress is too dam slow it will bankrupt America. Also, it is a very small capsule. Meaning you cant travel far or you will be dead due to the amount of resources you can take with you. And by the way, Spacex falcon heavy can most likely do a flyby around the moon but chose to not do it because of the many reasons I mentioned
Yeah after over a decade of delays and cost overruns
@jebes909090 Yes, the SLS launch did go well and was a great launch. However, it took over a decade to build. It was plagued with many failures and delays while under construction. Many of its tests that should have been easily passed in the beginning stages failed. This was a disappointment due to the fact it is all old technology. There was no reason for a failure like they experienced with SLS
Not even comparable. SLS approach is to burn time and money trying to make it perfect for a single launch that can’t be repeated until they build another entire rocket. In half the time Spacex already has a stable of Starships and boosters ready to test, while also launching nearly 250 reusable successful launches to orbit, including crewed missions, with the Falcon. SpaceX is the national space program, and Starship is going to overmatch SLS in every dimension.
SLS is 1.8 billion dollars to launch and all it can do is 4 astronauts.
Starship will cost as low as 10 million once it becomes reusable, and it will carry 150 tons to orbit, and more than 50 astronauts to Mars.
NASA will never build such a system.
🇿🇦 Leading the world to a new frontier.
There will be some heart searching a data analysis in order to figure out what caused the RUD on the booster. SpaceX is famous for incremental improvements. Next try the booster will come back in one piece.
why i cant see this live on the official spacex channel ?
They moved their livestreams to twitter or "X" as its called now.
Was starship high jacked ?
Weird how all was nominal ,and then blown up. Like someone else took control
Rapid unscheduled disassembly…no sweetheart, it exploded! It obviously had a lot of methane left in the tank after the engines were turned off and when it flipped the methane was close enough to the heat of the engines to explode. This is another reason SpaceX should use solid rock boosters at liftoff.
What???? The engines are completely isolated from the inside of the propellant tanks. Theres no way the engines could have caused a detonation inside of them with heat alone. Solid rocket boosters arent known for their reusability.
Great Launch so many milestones accomplished. I can’t wait for the analysis of what happened to each stage including stage zero. Go Elon!
WoW
So star ship kept going. I see it reached 108 km ? Is that considered “ space “ ?
Reached a total of 149km. It entered space but didn’t enter its orbit. The goal of the flight was stage separation which worked beautifully. Their next tests goal is demonstrating propellant transfer. Should be interesting!
Looks like the first stage engines were restarted too early, the booster was out of alignment
3500+ MPH? 🤯
👍
I think Clearly some systems on the Booster were damaged dury " Hot Staging " , causing it to RDA....
Shame to loose it...
I only Hope the Starship lands well in the Pacific...
Can't wait to see some of those videos...!!
NOTE : Wanting to see " How Well " the Water Deluge System / Plate " did...!?
Because ...Think about On Down the Road , when SpaceX attempts to Catch the Boosters while their doing their " Landing Burns " ( I'm more concerned about Launch Tower and Support Systems then ...🤔 )
Only spaceX fans can call a rocket exploding horrifically a success
I just want to say, "THANK YOU" to "ALL" of the people who made this launch possible. Elon musk to the janitor. 🙏
The hot staging went flawlessly which is pretty impressive, seeing the engines shut down and make those beautiful geometric shapes was really cool
❤ Spacex
@@davidstevenson9517 Yes it did little guy, after completing most of the test objectives.
@@davidstevenson9517 Yep, FTS working correctly. Another successful improvement to avoid trouble with FAA, protect people and further increase launch cadence allowing for even faster testing.
@@davidstevenson9517 People celebrating failure is strange to see. I can't see NASA giving Elon the keys to human flight with this track record. Those other companies are expensive but they don't have failures.
What happened to starship???
Can somebody please change the name of the engines! I saw the jurassic park movies too but thats a dumb name!
3:33 RUD(That booster explode just like a sameless acting explosion of Death Star 2 from StarWars movie just like. How cool!) 3:53 Successful flight SpaceX. Well done Elon Musk!

Looking at it strictly from an engine perspective everything worked
Other than "that" Mrs Lincoln, how did you like the play?
What happy to all the video cameras this is the first not having them. just saying
