Two reasons to make sure you watch these videos: the first the genuinely high quality and rich content, really good stuff. The second is to get a fix of Felix's unbridled enthusiasm which never fails to put a smile on my face. Thanks Felix!
@@ReiseLukas I understand and am not debating that :) I'm just providing feedback and my personal assessment. You are free to disagree 🤗 have a blessed day!

Makes sense to continue using tower one for testing since they know it is not optimal and will eventually run out of usefulness and so losing it in an attempted catch will be less problematic. Falcon heavy may have more usefulness than we think as medium lift rocket and since the boosters are the same as Falcon, there is little need for maintaining a separate rocket system, it is just a modified system. Not everything will need the huge payload capability of Starship.
The shots where Elon and Tim were walking up to the launch mount. The concrete “blast walls” and that ship right there was actually sublime! Truly loved the focus, has to work, has to be reusable … period. I am awestruck by the whole project.
Star Factory is an amazing place. I've seen tours of Star Factory before. There's no need to see the updated version. I have no idea what I'm looking at. I'll watch the launches instead. THAT'S far more interesting than looking at a bunch of unidentifiable stuff. Go Starship!
Do a piece on the metal used as the hinge-pin of the heavy lifting crane used to lift the assembled tower sections. That would be fascinating- how it is formed, type of metal and so forth. Also, how dangerous is the "Space suit" that back feeds water inside the suit, potentially drowning the wearer. Thanks.
It seems to me that doing the early catch attempts somewhere away from the tank farm & OLM would mitigate some of the risk. For this reason, I think they will build enough of the new tower to do catches but hold off on all of the launch/propellant infrastructure until they prove the catch tech.
I love this opening of the video with summary of whats going on. Epic like it was taken from some good sf series, especially this part "china copy falcon nine while its rockets land on villages "
Im curious if the proximity to sea would allow boring company to bore a short tunnel for the blast pressure. Whether vertical or horizontal supplied With appropriate vents from bottom of shaft or sides of shaft to surface to relieve the pressure I would think and assume eventually a permanent solution will present itself for long term use.
For new flame trench it would be great to have two exits were the flames are directed up a-little and angled toward the other exit. When the Starship launches the flames exiting the flame trenches would cross making an 'X'.
I think the Starship is gloriously overbuilt, as the melting but functional flaps or the hard to break-up hull at flight one proved it. I think this gives a lot of space to play, and after they figure out the basics, they could potentially shave off ridiculous amounts of weight in the long run.
everyone has refered to 7/9 tower segments but before tim dodd interviewed Elon, (EM) said tower was going to be taller than exiting. So, there is obviously going to be more tower segments to be erected and installed
you need to fix the voice volume compared to other videos implemented into your timeline max volume to hear you then blows the eardrums when those two rockets lit 20:37
Thats either a whole lot of either poorly controlled, over -corrected movement of the chopstick arms or air in the hydraulics. The arms themselves couldn't flex that far to bounce so something is wrong in the actuators. It looks like SpaceX may need disposable buffer pads on the inside of the chopsticks.
Quick correction: Musk will not redesign anything. His companies employ many brilliant, actual engineers; they and contractors brought in for the purpose will do the actual redesigning.
Why doesn't spacex take their heat shield off the rocket and design it instead as an expendable/deployable accessory component? Like the wire mesh stone chip windscreen protector for a car? That would remove the need for tiling, it could be made a single piece? It would also remove the complication with expansion and contraction of the rocket skin. Wouldn't that be a better idea? It could then be fitted with a new one every flight, prechecked and passed?
And very high melting point aswell also potentially with graphite we could hv a coil rail launcher space rocket as it blocks electro magnetic radiation
Well, if two Falcon 9 boosters can land at the same time on different pads, why not NASA relax constrictions and allow (maybe encourage) multiple launches from multiple pads at the same time. They could coordinate with the Coast Guard and FAA to use the same safety zones over the water and so forth, minimizing the commercial and recreational impacts of that. that would make spaceports "reusable" in the fashion of airports and runways and tower controlled ground- and air- space.
ULA also wrote an extensive document with similar issues BO brought up about SpaceX's plan for Starship at LC-39 and a possible future SLC-37 at CCSFS. ULA's pad, SLC-41 would be between the 2. I agree you cannot let on company monopolize the launch windows over all of the the other providers.
But You don´t have to. One could even use a balancing system: the more You launch, the less priority you get on the launch windows. This way we guarantee that if Spacex want to go crazy, it can - whenever there is no one waiting. If Spacex launched 50 rockets, and someone wants a spot to launch two, then it would have priority - since the cadence would be lower, the priority would be higher. There, fixed the problem. Took almost 30 seconds. Some ironing out would be needed, but it's basically done.
@@sysbofh There are other factors not just launch operations. Port Canaveral is the 2nd busiest Cruise Port in the world and many large cargo ships use the port. Ships can't move in the area during a launch window. There is also commercial fishing and large amount of recreational boating. There are navy ships which doc over at the CCSFS and the piers there. Orlando International Airport is a very active airport due to all of the theme parks and beaches in the area which people visit. Traffic has to be diverted during a launch to different flight plan. There is not an infinite number of room in the air space to have planes come from a different direction. Then there are the local highways which are around KSC and CCSFS.. When rocket components are moved, some need to be shut. This isn't BC with a handful of beach goers. It is a large area. 11K in Cocoa Beach, 50K in Titusville, 10K Cape Canaveral, Merritt Island 34K. The ULA document is in depth with many pages, not just the couple people cut and pasted in Social Media. This is not a simple 30 second fix as you claim. If it were, you would not need civil engineers and people who specialize in logistics.
I think it's not the booster they are testing it's practice of lifting with the Mecazilla arms. It loocks like that, it's only my spekulative thinking.
They di test the mini tank. They pressurized it and then smacked it with the chopsticks over and over in different spots up and down... testing what would happen when the arms bouce off the sides while catching. There was marks but no dents.
Wow! Who would have thought of a flame trench/diverter. 😌 I'm just surprised that it wasn't called the "hyper flame alignment loop!" I guess Elon is cutting down on the magic beans when he's reading the pulp SF mags from the 30's-50's . . .
"You can't pay for a rocket with Wows." Well, shoot! That was the basis for my entire presentation to my wife on how I was going to pay for that Falcon 9 I want to order.
why has no-one noticed the ice that didn't melt near the flap that burned up, there is a whole pile of ice right near the flap and it didn't melt........surely someone else noticed that

O wise one, you can see what only you can see. Reusability achieved by Falcon Rockets is a scam. Starlink is a scam. If you can only see scam, you might be a scam. Therefore, your comments do not exist.
One possible explanation for the height of the launch tower being the same but accommodating taller stacks would be a shorter OLM. With a flame trench the OLM may not need to be as tall.
Thank you for taking a moment to talk about the bad side of China's space program. Full disclosure is always the way to go! Sent a thanks, I really appreciate it.
How enthusiastic are you about space?😊 At what age did you realize this and how deep is your knowledge about this technology? I came from the Philippines and I've been following NASA's progress even before I moved here in America some 40 years ago. Unfortunately, you may find it odd that there are not too many Filipinos here in the US who share the same enthisiasm as you have about the subject of space and space exploration. That's why I'm always very cautious about my casual conversations with my other FIlipino friends and associates and I usually avoid talking to them about this subject. I hope you'll continue your enthusiasm and who knows, if your young enough to be able to pursue science or engineering career you'll someday become a SpaceX employee!😊
Hello po I'm 17 year's old and I'll like this idea of Elon becoming the humans multiplanetary species and his rocket starship I hope someday I could become one of their employees
@@JonelBuenaflor-b8s IF you are good in science and math, consider science and engineering field! We need a lot of them today, especially in computer engineering dahil sa development ng AI. Pero I'm not 100% agreeable with full AI on everything...
Tower and OLM v1 are sub-optimal as we have realized at this point. So, better use it to attempt catches. If it is destroyed in the attempt, no big loss. Tower v2 will have incorporated the much needed improvements.
I’m prior crane operator but retired now. Did nuclear steam generator change out and supported building the 8800 and breaking it down. Supported the weight trays with couple 150tons. Crane is insane
If you see Orange propellant RUN away. When I was driving an 18 wheeler out by Edwards AFB they where testing a Solid Rocket Booster ( SRB ) It threw up a huge cloud of Orange smoke. I was scared, I thought I was going to die. But the SRB orange gases are ok, Orange gases from a liquid fueled rocket are very deadly. I believe it was in White Sands NM. that the Lunar Module leaked out causing the town near bye to be evacuated, Back in the 60's. Thanks for the video. You Rock. :)
@@AeonExplorationhigh chance the orange "smoke" was actually just a dirt and debris cloud kicked up from the ground. You can see a lot of dirt get kicked up in footage of these SRB test firings.
Actually the SRB's used solid fuel named ammonium perchlorate composite propellant made of ammonium perchlorate, hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene and aluminium mixed together in a form of rubber. The exaust fumes were dangerous to humans en enviroment. They consisted of hydrogen chloride that in contact with water vapor produces hydrochloric acid. On the other hand the fuel of the orbiter consisted of hidrogen en oxigen that when mix together produces only water.
What you say is sacrilegious. One thing that is consistent about the Must Methodology is that bandaids are put on top of bandaids and it takes sometime to stop “doubling down”. Not sure if the process as now observed is optimal for time used. Interesting that they were tearing down things at Kennedy Space Center to start over. The issue with not having at least a minimal flame trench was so staggeringly obvious that it can only be traced to …
@@Codysdab I love it when ITAR is used to deflect a question. If there actually is something ITAR related then that can be censored out. Maybe why we don’t see it can be explained differently.
@@Mentaculus42 yeah, it's a bit like when they invoke national security for something that doesn't need it. I only mentioned it as during the Elon interview with EA he started to speak about heatshields and then stopped mentioning ITAR. I guess with footage of the heating/burn through in the engine bay could let someone work out heat shield performance, that they probably already know about. 🤷♂️
@@Codysdab Good catch, when he said that and then invoked ITAR I was pretty sure it was for a completely different reason. Considering that some of this is from space shuttle era and everything that has been said is freely available online. It is possible that they are using something newer but the older versions could be referenced to cover that. It was the clumsy transition to ITAR that suggests something different.

Tower 2 might be the same height if the OLM is lowered as its no longer needed to be high of the ground if a flame trench is being used.
Ah, glad I'm not the only one thinking this - I commented it on Felix's pinned post before scrolling down and seeing yours.
Elon already stated in his recent interview with Tim that the new tower would be taller.
Shouldnt blue origin make something that works first
and how do they do that if they can build their pad to launch them from or its constantly getting damaged by spacex launches?
@geesehoward700 the test range is in Texas that's why the lawfair is silly like he said it's pointless and hinders everyone else
@@geesehoward700 last time checked only thing they had was their amusement park ride. Blue origin isn't even putting payloads in orbit.

I wonder why they don't use heatshield' material on the launchpads' sensitive parts.
Great commentary and pix, Felix. Thanx .
Thats either a whole lot of either poorly controlled, over -corrected movement of the chopstick arms or air in the hydraulics. The arms themselves couldn't flex that far to bounce so something is wrong in the actuators. It looks like SpaceX may need disposable buffer pads on the inside of the chopsticks.
Quick correction: Musk will not redesign anything. His companies employ many brilliant, actual engineers; they and contractors brought in for the purpose will do the actual redesigning.
Finally, a massive flame diverter, we knew this had to happen, all along.
If the heat tiles work so well, why not encase the launch pad with giant sheets of it?
Why doesn't spacex take their heat shield off the rocket and design it instead as an expendable/deployable accessory component?
Like the wire mesh stone chip windscreen protector for a car?
That would remove the need for tiling, it could be made a single piece? It would also remove the complication with expansion and contraction of the rocket skin.
Wouldn't that be a better idea?
It could then be fitted with a new one every flight, prechecked and passed?
Spectacular update Felix!🎉
Thanks, Felix and team!
Version 2 Starship isn't a lot taller than the current Starship, only maybe a ring or so. It's Version *3* that will be a lot taller.
I wonder for heat panels if they're using graphite it's lightweight and factoring in weight density roughly same price as stainless
And very high melting point aswell also potentially with graphite we could hv a coil rail launcher space rocket as it blocks electro magnetic radiation
Sir Elon, Nerver dismiss the wow. Falcon 9 is the bread winner. Please, even if you reach the stars never forget the rocket that brought you to tears.

Thank you for taking a moment to talk about the bad side of China's space program. Full disclosure is always the way to go! Sent a thanks, I really appreciate it.
Given the catch up that China is doing they are in extremely good shape. They will overtake spaceX eventually.
Good eve Space Enthusiast from Philippines here
How enthusiastic are you about space?😊 At what age did you realize this and how deep is your knowledge about this technology? I came from the Philippines and I've been following NASA's progress even before I moved here in America some 40 years ago. Unfortunately, you may find it odd that there are not too many Filipinos here in the US who share the same enthisiasm as you have about the subject of space and space exploration. That's why I'm always very cautious about my casual conversations with my other FIlipino friends and associates and I usually avoid talking to them about this subject. I hope you'll continue your enthusiasm and who knows, if your young enough to be able to pursue science or engineering career you'll someday become a SpaceX employee!😊
Hello po I'm 17 year's old and I'll like this idea of Elon becoming the humans multiplanetary species and his rocket starship I hope someday I could become one of their employees
@@JonelBuenaflor-b8s IF you are good in science and math, consider science and engineering field! We need a lot of them today, especially in computer engineering dahil sa development ng AI. Pero I'm not 100% agreeable with full AI on everything...
Happy Friday space fans!
Tower and OLM v1 are sub-optimal as we have realized at this point. So, better use it to attempt catches. If it is destroyed in the attempt, no big loss. Tower v2 will have incorporated the much needed improvements.
This!
2 things in China that are expendable. People and rocket boosters
and freedom and rights
Exactly. The Chinese space program could care less if they drop spent rockets on populated areas.
Us causes destruction and death all across the planet, evil place, Libya, Syria, Yemen Iraq, Gaza,latin America, Vietnam , Afghanistan 😢
I’m prior crane operator but retired now. Did nuclear steam generator change out and supported building the 8800 and breaking it down. Supported the weight trays with couple 150tons. Crane is insane
Wow! Thanks for the insight! I can’t imagine what it must be like to work with such a crane! I was always absolutely fascinated by large cranes! 🔥
Those cranes are unbelievable! "Just keep making it bigger".
I'm glad to see the flame trench coming back. Refurbishing the OLM after every launch was ridiculous.
The simplest part is no part.
If you see Orange propellant RUN away. When I was driving an 18 wheeler out by Edwards AFB they where testing a Solid Rocket Booster ( SRB ) It threw up a huge cloud of Orange smoke. I was scared, I thought I was going to die. But the SRB orange gases are ok, Orange gases from a liquid fueled rocket are very deadly. I believe it was in White Sands NM. that the Lunar Module leaked out causing the town near bye to be evacuated, Back in the 60's. Thanks for the video. You Rock. :)
SRBS wouldnt have orange smoke? the orange exhaust you’re referencing is from hypergolic propellants, which are liquids..?
@@AeonExplorationhigh chance the orange "smoke" was actually just a dirt and debris cloud kicked up from the ground. You can see a lot of dirt get kicked up in footage of these SRB test firings.
Actually the SRB's used solid fuel named ammonium perchlorate composite propellant made of ammonium perchlorate, hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene and aluminium mixed together in a form of rubber. The exaust fumes were dangerous to humans en enviroment. They consisted of hydrogen chloride that in contact with water vapor produces hydrochloric acid. On the other hand the fuel of the orbiter consisted of hidrogen en oxigen that when mix together produces only water.
^ ^ ^ yeah, was the area soil orange - clay like and or rich in iron?
@@JosephHarner Take another look at the rocket falling, the smoke is a dense orange. 0:16
I said it before that the launch pad needed a more robust flame trench and a lot of people argued that it wasn’t. I told you. 😂
What you say is sacrilegious. One thing that is consistent about the Must Methodology is that bandaids are put on top of bandaids and it takes sometime to stop “doubling down”. Not sure if the process as now observed is optimal for time used. Interesting that they were tearing down things at Kennedy Space Center to start over. The issue with not having at least a minimal flame trench was so staggeringly obvious that it can only be traced to …
I said it too!!... 😉
I've been saying it for 2 years. All the Elon fan girls keep parroting Elon's" no part is best part "etc etc lol
I've been with the flame trench team along. I'm proud to say.
Many have said the same even ITF1
I do wish SpaceX would share some of the internal and engine bay camera views, they'd be crazy interesting to see, especially during reentry.
Right now those are probably getting proprietary information though.
@@UpperDarbyDetailing I'd imagine so, also probably limited due to ITAR rules.
I'd still love to see them though 😊
@@Codysdab
I love it when ITAR is used to deflect a question. If there actually is something ITAR related then that can be censored out. Maybe why we don’t see it can be explained differently.
@@Mentaculus42 yeah, it's a bit like when they invoke national security for something that doesn't need it. I only mentioned it as during the Elon interview with EA he started to speak about heatshields and then stopped mentioning ITAR.
I guess with footage of the heating/burn through in the engine bay could let someone work out heat shield performance, that they probably already know about. 🤷♂️
@@Codysdab
Good catch, when he said that and then invoked ITAR I was pretty sure it was for a completely different reason. Considering that some of this is from space shuttle era and everything that has been said is freely available online. It is possible that they are using something newer but the older versions could be referenced to cover that. It was the clumsy transition to ITAR that suggests something different.
Good Morning America from Thailand
So glad support for Starship is global, all the best from the UK
Is the new tower "two segments taller" if the flame trench is put in the ground so the whole rocket sits lower on the launch mount?
18:07 Absolutely love how the villagers running from the falling booster are covering their ears!
