A very interesting aspect of the catch is the control algorithm involved in controlling the booster's descent, which involves one of the hardest topics in engineering today, not to mention compensating for the fuel sloshing inside their rockets at the same time. Need I mention this is all automated? Totally mind-boggling.

A) Not a rant by definition B) Having “diverse” employees does not mean they were hired to meet a quota or because HR wanted to show them off in some DEI powerpoint slides. Shit isn’t hard to understand, bro
If you watch this video and the one a couple years back when two boosters landed side by side, you realize what they are accomplishing. I've never seen a single Hollywood movie, blockbuster or not, that has delivered the visceral experience you get of seeing this happen in real life. You can hear those engines ripping the air delivering unfathomable thrust, all while precisely and delicately guiding something the size of the Statue of Liberty into a clamp to be closed on it, effectively catching it in mid air. The engineering feat brings a tear to the eye.

The emptied SuperHeavy booster weighs 275 metric tons. Full of propellant is 3,700 tons
"taped in reverse" lmao XD It's so futuristic compared to older tech that it does literally look like that. what a win not just for America but for humanity as a whole.
For those curious why this is a big deal, there’s A LOT of junk we’ve left floating around in space over the decades. This is essentially negating a massive part of that issue while also saving tons of money and materials in rebuilding spent parts.
If you don’t mind, could you explain how this deals with space junk? Are they catching them with these rockets or are the rockets made from space junk? I’m confused
@@saladmashups1310 the good ol' Kessler syndrome. We could send missions to de-clutter the lower earth orbit by intercepting that abandoned junk and de-orbit it (deccelerate the junk so it falls into the atmosphere and disintegrates due to atmospheric friction)
@@saladmashups1310 It doesn't deal with the junk that is already there, but at least this way they won't be putting any more of it, unless they somehow start collecting it and bringing it down, that would be cool in fact.
@@saladmashups1310 It's not that this cleans up any junk that's already up there, but launches normally leave a bunch of junk in space. This is doing launches without adding to the mess.
Not to spoil the mood, but humanity won't make it to reach for Mars. Nuclear War, or total human annihilation, is more probable than living on another planet. Just saying.
The most amazing part of that is getting those control systems to work that well. That thing was coming in hot, so if whatever setup was throttling the rockets didn't work right it could have been messy and a lot more expensive.
@@forkittens false, humanity was driving straight into a crevasse during the Dark Age of Technology, by the basic principle that stronger beings will eventually rebel and stop being the slaves of weaker beings, that is inevitable, if the Emperor's plan was brought to fruition, mankind would have been all turned into what the custodes currently are, there would still be scientific innovation although with more restraint and mankind would be led by an immortal extremely powerful leader which would prevent fights for power, not to mention that there would be no filthy xenos
1:10 I don't use Reddit, someone show Asmon the video "How Not to Land an Orbital Rocket Booster" Sure the boosters aren't nearly as expensive, but they set the groundwork for this, the fact SpaceX made a fail comp is just so funny.

what do u mean? u won´t die soon. illness and dying will be a thing from the past in a few years from now! i plan to take my life when i am about 50.000 years old because of boredom! thats enough time to see lots of shit!
@@TransoceanicOutreachOh well, the only one that was capable of doing something like this has only gone up to 4 km of height. While this thing literally sent a thousands of tons heavy spaceship into space abd returned back from 70 km of height and used tiny landing pins to land instead of a large base. (Also this rocket is the largest and the most powerful rocket ever built, so landing it is an even bigger feat)
meanwhile boeing sent 2 ppl into space and nasa abandoned them there because the boeing craft barely managed to get them at the station, let alone be capable to bring them back to ground safe
Boeing is so bad in space, they couldn't even bring back our boys on the ISS home due to technicalities and the Russians had to bring them back for us, at least they came back safely
And now NASA waiting for SpaceX to build a rocket to bring the astronaut back. Boeing abandoned them in the first place since they said, the gist of it, 'oopsy we don't know how to build space rockets guess we have no solutions'
The irony is they are not allowed to hire any non-american's as this is considered military tech but they also got slapped with tons of fines for disobeying DEI hiring for immigrants XD (I know Elon is from South Africa, he's the owner)

Thats almost as tall as the statue of liberty, to control something as big as that in that precision its fucking incredible. No one is remotely close to this.
This is the first time I'm impressed with spacex. Don't misunderstand, I am impressed with space related things. But this is on another level entirely.
That is actually insane and to do that is almost impossible. These guys aren’t making steps forward, they are making leaps and bounds. Might actually see people land on Mars in my lifetime.
For those that maybe haven’t been following: this is a step jump in tech on par with the telegraph, automobile, factories, or ICE. Maybe bigger. For reasons that are too long to explain in a comment here. This will change the trajectory of humanity. Read up on it if you’re not familiar. Wild. Edit: I should clarify - the whole starship system is the step jump. Not the catching per se. The catching, while incredible, is just one step required for the whole system to work. The system is the real revolution.
lets not exaggerate, this doesnt give any new capability "just" massively cuts down on costs tied to sending stuff to orbit. its a step in right direction for sure but its not a total revolution
@@Asghaad You just contradicted yourself. It is a new capability being able to do this because as you said is massively cuts down costs and wastes when it comes to space related stuff. Thats massive
@@Asghaad That's the point, it massively cuts down on costs, so a lot more money can be put into research and other things instead of rebuilding the same thing that was left in space before.
I respect your opinion but personally disagree. We are looking at a 10x to maybe even 100x cost reduction in $/kg to orbit. This is the critical enabler that will allow governments and commercial industry to invest in space. Before this it is just too expensive to be effective or have any dream of an ROI. Many Governments had to collaborate over 20+ years to build a single space station because the funds required were just so high and govts can only invest so much in space when compared to all the other things they need to do. With the same investment (government or otherwise, probably will see more commercial) we are looking at a 10x - 100x increase in mass to orbit. In 10 years there will be copycats (I hope) and this will be more and more normal. Time will tell. We’ll see. I’m optimistic for sure.
@@Acuas there is huge difference between completely new capability - like lets say viable ion propulsion and just cutting down costs on whatever we were already capable of its progress in right direction yes, but its not like we suddenly found a viable method of interstellar travel or something.
At the rate Elon and SpaceX is going, it may actually come true. I remember staying up late to watch the very first successful F9 landing not too long ago, now it's newsworthy if one of them didn't land and blows up!

“It got taped in reverse” 🤣 good one
No going to lie first video report I saw. That is what I thought as well.😂
i mean it is hard to beleive but well it happened! though i cant see any reason why people would be insisting on it having been reversed, like what do they have to gain to keep saying that despite the proof in the pudding
@@crysomemoreee Who knows? If you really want the answer, first, you have to prove they actually mean what they say and aren't memeing? Do you care enough? Do they?
The flames going up the body of the rocket could only do so if it were landing, reversing the video wouldn’t change that.
Yeah, such a good fake they reversed the waves hitting the beach, too!
This is the most futuristic thing i have seen in 40 years

Damn the math behind that must be absolutely insane. I always love when people cheer for insane feats in scientific breakthroughs.
A very interesting aspect of the catch is the control algorithm involved in controlling the booster's descent, which involves one of the hardest topics in engineering today, not to mention compensating for the fuel sloshing inside their rockets at the same time. Need I mention this is all automated? Totally mind-boggling.

@@CHIM3RA.only thing this advancement does is make putting stuff on orbit cheaper - maybe enough for us to return to the moon and test the viability of extra terrestrial base there before building space launch facility to attempt reaching Mars. therefore it kinda cant be "more important than reaching Mars" when its just one of the beginning steps to reaching that goal
it is important yes but nowhere near the "gamechanger" some of you claim it to be

A small correction, the booster at this point in the flight weighs "only" around 300 t, but it's still an incredible achievement

If you watch this video and the one a couple years back when two boosters landed side by side, you realize what they are accomplishing. I've never seen a single Hollywood movie, blockbuster or not, that has delivered the visceral experience you get of seeing this happen in real life. You can hear those engines ripping the air delivering unfathomable thrust, all while precisely and delicately guiding something the size of the Statue of Liberty into a clamp to be closed on it, effectively catching it in mid air. The engineering feat brings a tear to the eye.
The emptied SuperHeavy booster weighs 275 metric tons. Full of propellant is 3,700 tons
So weighs as much as 2 San Antonio women.

For those curious why this is a big deal, there’s A LOT of junk we’ve left floating around in space over the decades. This is essentially negating a massive part of that issue while also saving tons of money and materials in rebuilding spent parts.
If you don’t mind, could you explain how this deals with space junk? Are they catching them with these rockets or are the rockets made from space junk? I’m confused
@@saladmashups1310
the good ol' Kessler syndrome. We could send missions to de-clutter the lower earth orbit by intercepting that abandoned junk and de-orbit it (deccelerate the junk so it falls into the atmosphere and disintegrates due to atmospheric friction)
@@saladmashups1310 it makes space missions cheaper and reusable. This rocket is nearly completely reusable so it won't leave anything behind
@@saladmashups1310 It doesn't deal with the junk that is already there, but at least this way they won't be putting any more of it, unless they somehow start collecting it and bringing it down, that would be cool in fact.
@@saladmashups1310 It's not that this cleans up any junk that's already up there, but launches normally leave a bunch of junk in space.

The most amazing part of that is getting those control systems to work that well. That thing was coming in hot, so if whatever setup was throttling the rockets didn't work right it could have been messy and a lot more expensive.

There are only a limited number of qualified people, so it wouldn't make any difference. Space X has basically unlimited funding right now.
NASA's budget is 10 times larger than SpaceX's, and they already give SpaceX 2-3 billion because they can't make rockets cheaply.

Edit: I should clarify - the whole starship system is the step jump. Not the catching per se. The catching, while incredible, is just one step required for the whole system to work. The system is the real revolution.
lets not exaggerate, this doesnt give any new capability "just" massively cuts down on costs tied to sending stuff to orbit.
its a step in right direction for sure but its not a total revolution
@@Asghaad You just contradicted yourself. It is a new capability being able to do this because as you said is massively cuts down costs and wastes when it comes to space related stuff. Thats massive
@@Asghaad That's the point, it massively cuts down on costs, so a lot more money can be put into research and other things instead of rebuilding the same thing that was left in space before.
I respect your opinion but personally disagree. We are looking at a 10x to maybe even 100x cost reduction in $/kg to orbit. This is the critical enabler that will allow governments and commercial industry to invest in space. Before this it is just too expensive to be effective or have any dream of an ROI. Many Governments had to collaborate over 20+ years to build a single space station because the funds required were just so high and govts can only invest so much in space when compared to all the other things they need to do. With the same investment (government or otherwise, probably will see more commercial) we are looking at a 10x - 100x increase in mass to orbit. In 10 years there will be copycats (I hope) and this will be more and more normal. Time will tell. We’ll see. I’m optimistic for sure.
@@Acuas there is huge difference between completely new capability - like lets say viable ion propulsion and just cutting down costs on whatever we were already capable of
