@@kingakhenaton5111 you see, I bet you're not an engineer to understand this, the main difference is that the process is more simple, and faster, the only downfall is the fact that still needs some fuel to park there meanwhile the space ship uses only gravitational weight and lands like a plane
@@kingakhenaton5111 this is better, space shuttle was dangerous, intended to be experimental, and had a long turn around time. This is safe, being worked on, and quick to reuse
I'm an engineer and that's one of the greatest feats of engineering I've ever seen, quite remarkable. What a huge collaborative effort by all, from senior management right down to the technicians and all in between. well done!
@@kingakhenaton5111 that's true the shuttle was before it's time just like the Apollo missions and the Venus lander and Voyager. But what I sore yesterday was another first for space travel. Maybe instead of taking a few men to the moon we will be able to take habitats. I for one thought it near impossible for Space X to pull this off. I'm sure that's what people thought when they landed on the moon. Sure the mission was flawed yesterday in many ways but the progress is amazing. The real challenge ahead for Space X is return the starship after reentry no doubt that will be even more impressive. Personally I don't know if Starship is a viable long term solution but it really is sci fi if you ask me.
@@candybar121 I know, I know. But do we really blame all SpaceX engineers and other staff for that on the day they produced something useful for humanity?

Yet there are still people saying this is all a hoax and cgi.. or at least the onboard video footage is fake.

I am happy you are such an optimist. My 62yr old friend passed away today just 2 months after being diagnosed stage 4 (cancer that is, not rocketry speak). He was from the poorer side of society though and despite efforts to get doctors to recognise his health issues worked all his life up until the diagnosis without any real help. As long as Elon and his mates can escape to mars though hooray. Pointless comment as I am sure the American ideal of free speech won't extend to this truth.
I am so surprised by my reaction of this. This made me so amazed that I started crying! This is without a doubt the coolest and most insane thing I have ever seen! I guess this is what people back in the 60’s felt when they landed on the moon. I am so glad to be alive to witness this!
The complexity of this maneuver is incredible. The sheer number of things that could go wrong, variables, teams of folks who had to all work on their part of the project in perfect unison. I can't even. This is a milestone for humanity and a day to be proud of your fellow Americans for such a ridiculously amazing accomplishment.
@@Larvanto53 Are there any studies about whether playing a lot of video games makes engineers better at advanced mathematics than spending that time studying advanced mathematics?
@@NewDecrypter66 Yes, agree, but I'm suggesting its not looking good from where I'm standing is all, the starship will use same tech regardless, that too is supposed to land in the sea...to me It looks unstable, cumbersome and prone to accident and failure.. Keeping things simple always wins...
lmfao in 1-2 years UFO tech is gonna be revealed by the USA these boosters will never operate to serve the human race soon kinda a sad story tbf and it doesnt change elons accomplishments in the slightest but its a damn shame
Watching from New Zealand - amazing stuff! Huge congrats to all of the SpaceX team and everyone involved in this successful mission! Onwards and upwards to the MOON!
@@stellviahohenheim Sad but true. Like I said to a friend just a couple of hours ago, even if we make it to Mars and settle it, it will just be more of the same, only with a smaller-looking sun. You can remove the human from the planet, but you can't remove human nature from the human.
That is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen in my life...congrats to space x team...what a leap in human history..i am so grateful to be alive in this time and age to be able to witness this.
My rockets used to be the same when I was a little one drawing them, and flying all around, each planet was my friend's house in my mind and I am proud to observe the dreams of a man coming to а live and the most important is that he shares them with all of us. Respect!
I was honestly half not surprised, half excited. I had an optimistic feeling the booster would nail the catch on the first go. And it did. A huge congratulations to the SpaceX team.
this launch was exactly 5 years to the day i buried my dad he would of been so amazed to see this amazing feat of enginering .............miss you dad ;-(
So exciting to see the progress made iteration after iteration. The video and connectivity throughout the reentry is equally amazing. And the booster was caught! This is inspiring!
@@okirooju3787 I do... but there is only so many times you can keep claiming testing, testing, testing Houston!! Just like a concept car, they very rarely come to market?

When it first activates it's inner engines it's travelling at 1273 km/h, about 7.75 seconds later it's travelling 250 km/h on 3 engines, so the average acceleration was about -3.75 g, so for almost 8 seconds it weighed about 937 tons even though it's probably more since it burned a lot of fuel decelerating
A science fiction story from the Urania series told over 50 years ago what the heroes of the SpaceX team have achieved. I am grateful to you on behalf of all those of all ages who love space❤
National companies are not driven by profit, so there's little incentive to be efficient and have any drive in that regards. Hence why you need private companies to get anywhere these days. And yet, the socialists want to stifle innovation by taxing these companies to death. A company that LITERALLY enables us to get off this planet at some point.

@@SaltyGT well even if is half a meter I think that is still incredibly difficult no? before electricity we didn't invented nothing all was invented before we just added, animal power, mechanical or steam power but with electricity all changed
@@kingakhenaton5111 you see, I bet you're not an engineer to understand this, the main difference is that the process is more simple, and faster, the only downfall is the fact that still needs some fuel to park there meanwhile the space ship uses only gravitational weight and lands like a plane
@@kingakhenaton5111 this is better, space shuttle was dangerous, intended to be experimental, and had a long turn around time. This is safe, being worked on, and quick to reuse
I'm an engineer and that's one of the greatest feats of engineering I've ever seen, quite remarkable. What a huge collaborative effort by all, from senior management right down to the technicians and all in between. well done!
WOW! It´s a Story for the History Books!
Congratulations to the SpaceX Team!!!
Congratulations Space X extremely impressive stuff, it's like watching a sci fi movie. Even watching it seemed impossible.
Dude, I remember when we had a reusable space plane! Not impressed
@@kingakhenaton5111 that's true the shuttle was before it's time just like the Apollo missions and the Venus lander and Voyager. But what I sore yesterday was another first for space travel. Maybe instead of taking a few men to the moon we will be able to take habitats. I for one thought it near impossible for Space X to pull this off. I'm sure that's what people thought when they landed on the moon. Sure the mission was flawed yesterday in many ways but the progress is amazing. The real challenge ahead for Space X is return the starship after reentry no doubt that will be even more impressive. Personally I don't know if Starship is a viable long term solution but it really is sci fi if you ask me.
That looks so magical! Especially the chopstick catch. What a milestone in space engineering!
@@candybar121 take your fake youtube account and delete it, little predator, stop looking at children
@@candybar121 I know, I know. But do we really blame all SpaceX engineers and other staff for that on the day they produced something useful for humanity?
What an incredible thiss !! This rocket caught back at the very same launch ..this is absolutely insane!!
Love from India 🇮🇳
43.5 miles is how far I live from Starbase and by god, you can hear and feel this rocket take flight.
I live 17 miles away. I have some sick pictures of the rockets they've launched taken from my backyard
@@myweirdsecondchannelwithap9070 and I remember, as a kid living in Lompoc California, watching experimental Atlas rockets being launched from Vandenberg AFB and exploding... one day, one blew up just off the launch pad and I was 11 miles away and we had debris landing all around our neighborhood...
Yet there are still people saying this is all a hoax and cgi.. or at least the onboard video footage is fake. So basically two incredible things are happening at the same time: 1) there are people so smart they can actually do stuff like this and 2) there are also people so stupid they think this is all fake and the earth is flat. Its fascinating how intelligence can vary so much within one species🤔
@@myweirdsecondchannelwithap9070 is that close enough to hear anything at all?
@@Larvanto53 They are the people we should send to mars first
Coolest thing ive ever watched!
Watching it for about the 20th time, still have tears in my eyes.
7:13 I definitely thought they wouldn't make it on the first try, and omg, they did it! #GoSpacex! 🚀
I was thinking the same thing I am totally jaw dropped right now trying to wrap my simple little brain around what just happened😮
Congratulations SpaceX team!
Second try...
IFT 4 nailed the accuracy, it aimed for and hit the mark for a virtual tower.
Best part when watching SpaceX milestones are when the engineers cheering like they saw a last minute winning goal at the FIFA World Cup.
Every single engineer worked on this needs to be recognized by name! Absolutely history stuff!
Left or right, you don’t have to be on either side, to love seeing human achievement.
Woke us up this morning and we're 50 miles away from launch pad. Beautiful.
We can do anything when we work together. This is absolutely amazing.
When you have unlimited tax money*
@Unknown-sz8kg I'm fine with some tax dollars going to actual important work. Funding by no means equals success. I get the point but most tax dollars are wasted this isnt a waste.
@@Unknown-sz8kgSpaceX is a private company, they are not funded by the government.
But we can’t until Trump is elected again because all of America is a shit hole “like Detroit” with anyone else but him as president.
@@motionsicktotally 100% wrong that most tax dollars are wasted. Military tax dollars? Wasted? Medical care tax dollars wasted? Research and development (think internet) tax dollars wasted? Highways and bridges tax dollars wasted? You’ve been brainwashed. SOME tax dollars are wasted. The vast majority are spent on completely worthwhile investments.
75 years old. So glad I made it to this point. I saw humankind land on the moon, now this, and in a few years...MARS!
I am happy you are such an optimist.
My 62yr old friend passed away today just 2 months after being diagnosed stage 4 (cancer that is, not rocketry speak).
He was from the poorer side of society though and despite efforts to get doctors to recognise his health issues worked all his life up until the diagnosis without any real help.
As long as Elon and his mates can escape to mars though hooray.
Pointless comment as I am sure the American ideal of free speech won't extend to this truth.
this is species survial stuff. Im sorry for your friend but think bigger.
lol all fake and you’ve been fooled 😂
@@LouSassoleSledgecock_III What proof do you have?
@@edkalski2312Are you serious, these people have memes, what more solid, irrefutable proof do you need?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
There are very few moments in life that keep you utterly speechless…. This was one of those for me.
I am so surprised by my reaction of this. This made me so amazed that I started crying! This is without a doubt the coolest and most insane thing I have ever seen! I guess this is what people back in the 60’s felt when they landed on the moon. I am so glad to be alive to witness this!
That's a pretty normal reaction for a sane human watching this, tbh.
The complexity of this maneuver is incredible. The sheer number of things that could go wrong, variables, teams of folks who had to all work on their part of the project in perfect unison. I can't even. This is a milestone for humanity and a day to be proud of your fellow Americans for such a ridiculously amazing accomplishment.
British chap here - well done (Space X) everyone involved, absolutely stunning, now't more to say.
Absolute incredible that something like this is possible 🤩🤩🚀🚀🚀
This is incredible, it’s not a movie, it’s not a game, it’s not a CG, it is real !!!
Somewhere at SpaceX, someone's mother is regretting ever telling her child to put down those video games.
@@GreatMewtwoYou are superstitious. Video games are a waste of time.
@@Makes_me_wonderThere is nothing wrong with recreational activities. Doing things for your own enjoyment is a necessary part of life.
@@Makes_me_wonder studies have shown that surgeons who used to play a lot of video games have better spatial visualization ability than non players.
@@Larvanto53 Are there any studies about whether playing a lot of video games makes engineers better at advanced mathematics than spending that time studying advanced mathematics?
This was incredible and will become the norm in a decades time. Well done Space X
Disagree.. Its concept art in motion... great for cargo, forget humans...
@rfxtuber tell your story walking dude
@@NewDecrypter66 Yes, agree, but I'm suggesting its not looking good from where I'm standing is all, the starship will use same tech regardless, that too is supposed to land in the sea...to me It looks unstable, cumbersome and prone to accident and failure.. Keeping things simple always wins...
lmfao in 1-2 years UFO tech is gonna be revealed by the USA
these boosters will never operate to serve the human race soon
kinda a sad story tbf and it doesnt change elons accomplishments in the slightest but its a damn shame
Watching from New Zealand - amazing stuff!
Huge congrats to all of the SpaceX team and everyone involved in this successful mission!
Onwards and upwards to the MOON!
That was insane! Thank you SpaceX, you are all amazing.
What an experience this was. Truly a historical day
Just imagine, if all peoples worked together, toward a single goal, what humankind could achieve.
There will always be that kind of person who never want to advance more over they tried their hardest to make sure other people fail.
@@stellviahohenheim Sad but true.
Like I said to a friend just a couple of hours ago, even if we make it to Mars and settle it, it will just be more of the same, only with a smaller-looking sun.
You can remove the human from the planet, but you can't remove human nature from the human.
If all of us are like this, humanity is so far far ahead by now. That would be so so epic!
That is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen in my life...congrats to space x team...what a leap in human history..i am so grateful to be alive in this time and age to be able to witness this.
That was ART. Sheer beauty in the capacity of human engineering.
My rockets used to be the same when I was a little one drawing them, and flying all around, each planet was my friend's house in my mind and I am proud to observe the dreams of a man coming to а live and the most important is that he shares them with all of us. Respect!
In Uganda, Africa this just blew my mind. My grand mother is fighting for her with cancer i needed this.
Thank you SpaceX
Faith and strength and may there be healing to your grandmother and you too.
May God give your Grandmother comfort and peace.
@abnnab1648 send me your paypal if you have one. I wanna send you something.
I cried when the booster successfully landed. 🥰😍🤩
Really?
Me too.
Congratulations from Sweden. Bravo SpaceX.
Amazing work 😎👍
WOW! That was AMAZING! 😱 I was a kid when NASA used to televise their launches, especially the Space Shuttles. This brought me back to childhood! 🥺
Congratulations to all the team involved. Thank you for everything you’re doing and all the hard work you’ve put into it. God bless you all 🇬🇧
Just made it back to Houston from Boca Chica, it was jaw dropping to watch it live! Congratulations Space X !
You are so lucky!
I was honestly half not surprised, half excited. I had an optimistic feeling the booster would nail the catch on the first go. And it did. A huge congratulations to the SpaceX team.
I have watched this now for the 50th time. I am an 80s kid. This is so exciting as Columbia was.
We should a species be solely focused on projects such as this.
This is the maddest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.
Nah people care more about their new shoes
Unbelievable.....this Starship program is turning out to be one major success. A Masterpiece of engineering.
I agree. That's a great achievement. Congratulations to the entire team at SpaceX.
this launch was exactly 5 years to the day i buried my dad he would of been so amazed to see this amazing feat of enginering .............miss you dad ;-(
So exciting to see the progress made iteration after iteration. The video and connectivity throughout the reentry is equally amazing. And the booster was caught! This is inspiring!
The precision is absolutely nuts🎉
They've been practicing A LOT with Falcon 9
Я из России поздравляю вас с успешным запуском.Я вами горжусь.👍
That's absolutely INSANE!!!! WHAT DID I JUST WATCH?????
Visions of when people will be on a unstable rocket system that will end in tears?
Guess we’ve found the Chinese bots 😂. Cry some more 😭
@@TravisGunderson-ge9nh muhahahaha.. Chinese or not.... That thing looks unstable and prone to serious error!!!!
@@rfxtuberyou're expecting stability and perfection for something undergoing developmental testing? Do you even know the point of these tests?
@@okirooju3787 I do... but there is only so many times you can keep claiming testing, testing, testing Houston!! Just like a concept car, they very rarely come to market? I have no doubt the rocket systems will work, I've got a little drone, it works great... until you attach a nuke to the bottom of the dam thing!! Know what I mean.... lol, for cargo missions tho... now that's realistic, but seriously, forget humans...
When it first activates it's inner engines it's travelling at 1273 km/h, about 7.75 seconds later it's travelling 250 km/h on 3 engines, so the average acceleration was about -3.75 g, so for almost 8 seconds it weighed about 937 tons even though it's probably more since it burned a lot of fuel decelerating
It's like when Superman catches a plane nose first :D
A science fiction story from the Urania series told over 50 years ago what the heroes of the SpaceX team have achieved. I am grateful to you on behalf of all those of all ages who love space❤
How is it ever possible that these guys are better than NASA?!?
Not captured by bureaucracy and political machinations.
bcs DEI
National companies are not driven by profit, so there's little incentive to be efficient and have any drive in that regards. Hence why you need private companies to get anywhere these days. And yet, the socialists want to stifle innovation by taxing these companies to death. A company that LITERALLY enables us to get off this planet at some point.
Rapid Iteration + No DEI hires
@@Axclz110bot
mindblowing: those arms are strong enough for the bottom of the booster to swing towards the tower!? holy sheet!
I'm tired of runing into loses Trying to trade this market and it's really fulstrating. I have liquidited my trade foe the 3 time in a months.. I don't think these online videos can help any more. I need help
The loses is much, on me also, I wanna try to move on
Over a month $50,000 was liquidated and I don't really know which pattern or stretegy go try right now because all I know and have learnt have been used yet no possitive results
I lost my saving of $20,000 😭😭 to wrong trading signals. Is this how much people loose to get a good success or this is just a red flag sign.. Need help to navigate all this through. 😢
If I get a good and caoch or guide, all my wrong moves and stretegy will be guided right, I'm fed up and need a help
I wonder how people run at loses when there are proffesional traders who give good returns and give quality coaching
I had all this kind of experience before till I met my coach that has been helping me
What's the name of your caoch because I need a good realiable trader to help over come this loses. I run at $10,000 loses weekly with wrong signals
Who knew you could parallel park a rocket.
this is a case of persist and you will succeed... from where they were years ago to where they are now is absolutely incredible. Congrats to SpaceX !!
I'm mind-blown, this is surreal.
Ship: yo guys i reached orbit perfectly, can i get some cheers?
Crowd: ok…
Booster: WATCH THIS!!!!
crowd: OMG OMG OMG
ship: heyo?
Crowd: *speechless*
Ship: helloooo… ok. Maybe next time.
From Sicily, it's unbelievable to see a 71 m rocket reaching the same launch point from n-km in 7 minutes...wow
Oh my! I have never gotten so emotional and giddy over a rocket launch. Great job space x!
Congrats to space x and all involved in this effort
Congratulations to all the SpaceX engineers and staff. YOU guys made this possible. Something to be proud of.
This made me cry, like the Apollo 8 Christmas reading
This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. Incredible.
Good to see the comments, confirming its not just me with tears streaming down my face. Absolutely amazing !
I don't normally comment on videos but that was emotional to watch. A huge congratulations to all the space x team , you're going to save our 🌎
we just witnessed history
And the next catastrophic explosion with people on board!!!!!
@@rfxtuberHow, the booster will never have people on it for return
@@adamkiraly9805 The Starship will have people on it when it's caught.
