Jared is pretty awesome. Articulate, unassuming, candid, and professional. I think he’s the perfect ambassador for this new age of commercial spaceflight.
I love the parallels to the gemini missions. SpaceX has got to the point now where they've hit the ceiling of what standard commercial aerospace does (cargo, satellites). Now comes the testing and pushing the boundaries in ways that historically only governments have done. Testing a new EVA suit, proving communications networks. I wouldn't be surprised if Polaris 2 was a Crew Dragon docking with a Starship. All culminating in Polaris 3 with a manned mission aboard the modern successor to the Saturn V. All the proof of concept work will be done in these missions so they can proceed with Dear Moon, the HLS for NASA, and eventually Mars missions. It's been a tough few years, but stories like these make the future look bright.
The more I think about it, the less I like the idea of launching humans from Earth inside of a Starship, with no independent and redundant abort system. The answer is now obvious. Launch a Starship, full of cargo instead of crew, and rendezvous with it in a Crew Dragon. This way Starship will not need to make a shallow ascent, or limit the maximum g-forces for humans. And, there is no need to worry if your methane engines will fire up quickly enough in an abort emergency.
@@lancelotlake7609 I'm sure NASA would prefer this, and it would definitely make sense for HLS (they're only sending 4 or so), but adopting this method for regular use would defeat the purpose of starship. If you sent up all the passengers aboard crew dragon, you would need 10-15 launches to get the starship to capacity (remember it can carry around a hundred people). That also means 10-15 opportunities for something to go wrong during launch, during docking, etc.
Jared is a top notch dude and the way he's starting this adventure is beautiful. Standing head and shoulder above champagne laden self congratulatory hops to the Karman line.
It sounds to me that mission 2 will involve starship. I would guess dragon docking with starship in orbit. This would provide tons of data, orbiting with starship, docking capabilities. This could also provide a potential way to return if there were an issue with starship while in orbit.
My thoughts exactly. If you think about it they did this with dragon, by sending it to the ISS uncrewed where the ISS crew was able to enter and perform experimental tasks in dragon.
I thought the same, especially when Jared said it was an interesting or great/good idea (I forgot exactly which word he used) in response to Tim suggesting a mission docking Crew Dragon to an in orbit Starship.
This may be the first time in human history when somebody was asked “Do you want to go to Mars?” and it was a genuinely personal difficult question with lot’s of practical conflicts. He really would be on the crew of the first human mission to Mars if he wants that since he’s now established as the commander of the first crewed Starship mission - Polaris 3.
Tim thank you for bringing these gems to the public!!!! Your work is so valuable to the archives of humanity! So excited to be living in this era of space flight and our push to become a Space fairing society! Jared is a Titan amongst men. A true pioneering hero!
After watching the Netflix special on Inspiration (Fantastic) 4, I knew Jarred would be a mainstay in the space community. He’s the perfect candidate for SpaceX to utilize. So likable, down to “Earth” (pun intended), very confident. I couldn’t have asked for a better commander. I say SpaceX should name a Starship “The Isaacman”. Do it SpaceX!
This is huge! Your channel has always so much quality in it! You know your stuff, like Jared Isaacman! Now he is actually helping SpaceX with the development of human spaceflight capabillities of Starship. A real astronaut for SpaceX like 3 other employees of SpaceX. This is a win win for all!
Thanks Tim good interview! I really think Jared is essentially the first commercial astronaut and will start a renaissance in space. He’s made his mark in history with what he’s now pursuing. I’m profoundly jealous of his ability to bankroll this but boy do I hope it all goes well for them 👏
Yeah. This is something I don't understand when people say "the first crew will most likely die on Mars" or stuff like that. There is almost zero chance NASA or Congress would approve funding for any mission that doesn't 100% intend to return the crew safely to Earth.
@@TigreDemon I agree that the outlook is bleak for robust support for human space exploration. On the other hand, I hope that missions that are developed are ambitious enough require crew return to be a priority.
@@Astromath it would be required for approval and funding if the people going are NASA astronauts. This _may_ be a requirement for FAA (an organization overseen by Congress) approval of a Mars mission. Amateur astronauts to LEO is one thing, first people on Mars I think you'd want a more experienced crew.
Well done Tim, love your work, from explaining full flow staged combustion to your walk-around with Elon and now an scoop interview with Jared, you've earned it all and you should be proud.
It is so refreshing watching this interview. You see the other people that are very wealthy and they have a very selfish attitudes in their endeavors. But Mr. Jared is just great.
"[Starship is] the biggest rocket ever" -Tim Dodd 2022 What a magnificent time in human space flight history to be alive! I'm super hyped for all of the highs and lows this year will bring. My children are too young to appreciate all of this just yet, but once they feel the terrifyingly percussive vibrations in the air upon the launch of the first human crewed Starship mission they will undoubtedly find their inspiration for human space flight. Without a doubt! Now my only challenge is to lock down a week of holiday time, so I can drive my family for 4 hrs. to Boca Chica Village in hopes of being there when this BFR goes into space FOR. THE. FIRST. TIME. See y'all there!
After it came out that NASA was short astronauts I commented that SpaceX had 2 trained Dragon pilots if they needed to fill a seat. I'm overjoyed that Jared has been involved in space flight still and I'm hoping Siam Proctor will still have a role.
It's awesome indeed. At the price tag of a dragon training, all 4 of the inspiration crew may get future proposal or requests to fly. Props up to Mr Isaacman generously affecting their lives.
@@tamie341 You just won't be happy until every Space company created by a billionaire is bankrupt and they're destitute just so you can have your moment of schadenfreude, will you? What has Jared Isaacman ever said or done to incur your wrath, other than being rich?
I like the fact that Jared is taking on some entrepreneuring of himself, by collecting data that will be invaluable to the moon and mars shots, and possibly testing the resulting technology that will attempt to deal with the determined issues. Mr. Isaacman, I tip my hat to you. I hope you can inspire more billionaires to join the club dedicated to making humanity a multi-planetary species. Indeed, Jeff (Who?) is not a member.
Hey Tim, an HydroLOX and KeroLOX Propulsion engineer here. I think you should do a video about how spacex's and other companies' advancement in technology have brought down the cost of shuttle launches to space from 1 billion an astronaut to much lower to help people understand the part that innovation plays in space sector. I will be much glad to see a video that explains it to the common man. As always, a very good fan of your channel and what you are doing to get common people to be interested and much more than that, knowledgable in rockets. Keep being you.
The conversation on high orbit imagery got me thinking about having VR cameras on board...that, I think, would be a very immersive/inspiring experience for viewers!
@Tim - another great choice for a video topic (Jared is the real deal, and very accesible), and I'm so glad you continue to make the content beyond the fluff that many channels put out, just to get clicks. You're an asset to the space-fairing community. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
So excited about their upcoming missions! It really shows how quickly things are moving with human space flight! Exciting times for what the near future holds! 😎😃
At some point there will be criticism that the missions of "this billionaire astronaut" aren't as philanthropic as they sound because they "were subsidized by NASA" because NASA paid for the development of Dragon. Well, *duh!* One of NASA's missions is to lead the way in space exploration so others may follow. (Not to mention NASA got a bargain price for Dragon.)
@@donjones4719 Dragon is NASA's second ever expenditure they can point at and say "We got the best technology had to offer at an incredible price". It's literally the second time ever that NASA didn't get taken for a ride by a contractor since they got those awesome crawler-transporters back in the 60's for a stupidly low price (and they've and continue to operate beautifully to this day).
This is a great interview. How f'ing cool would it be if a member of the spaceflight nerd community (Tim at the top of the list) was offered a seat on Polaris 2?
They are already painted as fanboys so getting a free flight would just add more fuel to that fire. I wish the same but also want to shield them too from the harsh scrutiny of impartiality.
Thank you so much Tim for this super interview with Jared I. I have learned many things and I see SpaceX will little by little increase its knowledge about space exploration to ultimately send man much farther than our blue planet. Personally I feel so comfortable here on earth and I consider those men and women some kind of heroes, bold pioneers of an uncertain future. Keep on the good work. Jean-michel, France
Tim this was a great interview. Well prepared. I can really see your interest in space is very genuine. I hope one day you get a seat on a mission off world! Good luck on that dream. Maybe you'll be the first person to film their TH-cam channel in space! Hear that Elon and Jared?
The starlink testing is very interesting. Opportunity to offer private space stations communication services via lasers. There are a few gravity producing Van Braun type rotating space station projects in the pipeline. They could use starlink to communicate with earth. This will enable passengers to access the internet as if they were on at home.
Jared clearly believes in Elon’s dream of a space faring human species and is willing to do what it takes to make it succeed. It’s great that someone as talented and committed and who’s already successful in his own right is on Elon’s team. Elon has proven that he is sincere about helping the people of Earth get past the great filter and that he really knows what he is talking about. If there’s any doubt about Elon’s capabilities, just look at reusable orbital class boosters and the electric vehicles revolution he kicked off.
Thanks for having such a cool channel on current space science. it's always awesome hearing what's happening and the views of people who are actively pushing humans into our solar system.
Awesome, thank you Jared for continuing to advance human space flight, and eventually space life! And thanks Tim for being this great content to the world!
I grew up following the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo program. I’m pretty confident I’ll be around to watch the next human landing on the moon. I hope I will live long enough to see humans land on Mars.
Great interview as always ! asking the right, intelligent and interesting questions. Polaris genuinly excites me so much, can't wait to see spacex's EVA suit !
This guy is aawsome. His rich yeah ok. But he is a aviation nerd has flown just about everyone type of plane. He is now going to space, further than probably anyone in history in aviation Experience as a civilian. Way to go dude. Living your dreams
Don't know him personally buy Jared seems to be a real cool guy and what he's done/doing for St Jude... My hats off to him and glad to see he's continuing to be involved with SpaceX
Great talk! 😃 It looks like Jared is highly interested in doing a lot for with SpaceX. And although he put safety first and didn't confirm his intention of going to Mars, he didn't mention anything about being unwilling to do it. So depending on his life's course by the time Starship becomes human rated for long duration flights, there's a chance he might feel like going to Mars. He's probably itching for it anyway, like so many people, but of course he cares about his family and wouldn't take a big risk like a single person would do.
Hi Tim… a bit off subject but, assuming they pull the EVA off, could it be feasible to use a Dragon (plus perhaps a Cargo Dragon) to do a Hubble repair mission?
Incredible how Mr. Isaacson is spearheading an entire astronaut program not tied to the rigid protocols of NASA programs. Anyway in any space activity, common sense alone is not enough. Passion for spaceflight is very important but training remain essential. And the best safety follows best engineering practices Thank you Mr. Dodds and Mr. Isaacson for this interview...
Bravo! Informative and interesting interview. This year (2022) is becoming a true pivotal moment in the history of earthlings. Thank you for bringing it to the "people". Sharing your knowledge and excitement inspires not only the young preparing for the future, but the old that have been waiting a very long time for growth in our journey to beyond. Blessings always
I knew it when I watched the netflix documentary that Jared wasn't done! And looks like the Astronaut trainer Sarah is on one of these polaris missions! Thanks Tim!
Jarred has shown himself to be a very capable human. I have all the confidence that He and his crew will perform great and add much confidence to commercial human spaceflight. God Speed Polaris.
There are very few channels I hit the thumbs up button even as the adverts are still running at the start, but every video of Tim's is worthy of a like so why wait?
Oh man, I saw this and was expecting Jared to announce you had a seat on one of those trips!!! Elon or Jared needs to make it happen! We the people want Tim reporting back from space!
Congrats on scoring the interview. Was wondering if he plans on taking over the private astronaut training the way he does with the fighter jet training? At some point, there will be some sort of private astronaut training for private astronauts. If you don't want to go through the training, I would be happy to do that and document it all for you!
Bar none, Tim does the best interviews for fans of spaceflight in the business. I know you have expressed hesitancy in the past but I feel with all the changes in private spaceflight that the Everyday Astronaut might just get his chance to earn his wings if he chooses in the not so distant future. Great interview and Jared is the real deal. Going into Inspiration 4 I viewed him as a bit of a billionaire going on a joy ride but its clear he has a vision and much like Elon Musk, Mark Cuban and others that have parlayed their success into other areas that were their true passions it seems Jared is paving the way for a modern civilian core of astronauts.
I miss your weekly update on OLF! Watching the return to space documentary; I know that voice, and then experiencing your enthusiasm again was wonderful. As I wrote this I noticed there's another reunion up, and I will watch it. But you no longer appear in my YT feed, because I do not watch content that does not exist.. IMHO, you where on an excellent trajectory, and lost manoeuvrability at some point.. Your long form content is, possibly unmatched, but your off the cuff commentary has that as well - you don't have to prepare for 3 months, to present something in Walter Cronkites essence; you are the WC of our time! Please give us your commentary :)
With my understanding of space suits the only way to reduce or eliminate the pre breath protocols is to use a much higher suit pressure which impacts mobility of the suit. The solution I suggest is a high pressure suit with sophisticated power assist for walking, finger and hand dexterity and so on, and have the control of the suit synchronised with the users body via a Nuralink implant. Easier said than done of course.
Tim, I'm not sure if you already intended to do so but I think it would be awesome if you could put a comprehensive video together of the birth of starship. From the humble beginnings of Star Hopper through each flight test, the Elon interviews to the present. It's nice to go back and see the videos of each starship launch but to have one well-produced video for posterity that explains the concept, the trials, the failures, to the ultimate successful landing for future generations to watch would be simply awesome. And thanks for everything.
How awesome is it that Jared and Elon found each other?! Two great and wealthy humans setting an example. Imagine if only 2 or 3 others join in and make true philanthropic impacts towards our scientific futures!
I love how Tim can get a casual interview with almost anyone in the Aerospace Industy
and so glad as how modest and real he is about it
He is flexing on us
casual being the operative word. no expert, not crazy.
Tim is the people champion.
They’re lucky to have Tims interest…

Nice work Jared and Tim and ALL who are onboard with the Mission

So depending on his life's course by the time Starship becomes human rated for long duration flights, there's a chance he might feel like going to Mars.
He's probably itching for it anyway, like so many people, but of course he cares about his family and wouldn't take a big risk like a single person would do.
Great interview Tim! So many interesting people out there just waiting to be asked the right questions. You are the man for the job.
Hi Tim… a bit off subject but, assuming they pull the EVA off, could it be feasible to use a Dragon (plus perhaps a Cargo Dragon) to do a Hubble repair mission?
Thats a good question
Dragon does not have a arm. No way to to hold postion while doing a EVA.
@@TheJttv not yet 😉
@@GeekyBrian96 there is also the issue of cargo. What could dragon bring up?
Also Roman is gonna replace Hubble soon. So meh.
@@TheJttv yeah and starship could just toss up a new one lol
Incredible how Mr. Isaacson is spearheading an entire astronaut program not tied to the rigid protocols of NASA programs.
Anyway in any space activity, common sense alone is not enough. Passion for spaceflight is very important but training remain essential. And the best safety follows best engineering practices
Thank you Mr. Dodds and Mr. Isaacson for this interview...
Maybe his crew will be able to shore up the numbers for artemins, or they staff the ISS for the USA and the NASA astronauts go to the moon
That first Starship crewed flight is going to be a nail biting experience.
That first orbital test flight is going to be a nail biting experience! :D
@@TheEvilmooseofdoom That one too but a crewed propulsive landing is going to give me a heart attack
Holy crap! I'm blown away just by the thought of these upcoming missions! Great interview!!
Tim is getting along with the big boys now ! Really great interview and I am definitely excited about the future!!
new EVA and first starship mission..sounds exciting
Bravo! Informative and interesting interview. This year (2022) is becoming a true pivotal moment in the history of earthlings. Thank you for bringing it to the "people". Sharing your knowledge and excitement inspires not only the young preparing for the future, but the old that have been waiting a very long time for growth in our journey to beyond. Blessings always
I knew it when I watched the netflix documentary that Jared wasn't done! And looks like the Astronaut trainer Sarah is on one of these polaris missions! Thanks Tim!
This is a guy thats going to earn those wings! Hats off to people like him. Good guy with a level head
Jarred has shown himself to be a very capable human. I have all the confidence that He and his crew will perform great and add much confidence to commercial human spaceflight. God Speed Polaris.
Dude. You get killer interviews and tours. More, more, more and more power to you.
There are very few channels I hit the thumbs up button even as the adverts are still running at the start, but every video of Tim's is worthy of a like so why wait?
Thanks for the interview, great stuff : ) It seems like Jared is turning into a spaceship test-pilot!!
Thank you, Tim and Jared. Excited for the progress.
Really excited to see how they're going to train for the starship bellyflop and landing.
I think they'll train them to not look out the windows during the landing. ;-)
Pucker, clench, and try and not scream. :)
Actually, Jared, you have to bring Tim with you! 😎 🚀💫
Imagine the premission interview with Christopher Columbus- Go Jared!!!
I'm so pumped for all the space activity in the coming years!!
Very informative as always, Tim! Great to see all the folks that you line up to chat...keep up the great work!
Because this kind of people we have hope for the future!
I piloted dragon…per say…If need be…yes for almost sure. Still love what you’re doing Jared.
Thanks Tim! Good talk with Jared :) He has me hyped up again!
Oh man, I saw this and was expecting Jared to announce you had a seat on one of those trips!!! Elon or Jared needs to make it happen! We the people want Tim reporting back from space!
Congrats on scoring the interview. Was wondering if he plans on taking over the private astronaut training the way he does with the fighter jet training? At some point, there will be some sort of private astronaut training for private astronauts. If you don't want to go through the training, I would be happy to do that and document it all for you!
Tremendous interview! So informative and exciting! Thank you...looking forward to more like this.
Awesome interview! Isaacman is the modern day hero we need 👍
What a great interview. Love that you asked about his wife, I had the same question and its funny the closed captioning was wrong.
Bar none, Tim does the best interviews for fans of spaceflight in the business. I know you have expressed hesitancy in the past but I feel with all the changes in private spaceflight that the Everyday Astronaut might just get his chance to earn his wings if he chooses in the not so distant future. Great interview and Jared is the real deal. Going into Inspiration 4 I viewed him as a bit of a billionaire going on a joy ride but its clear he has a vision and much like Elon Musk, Mark Cuban and others that have parlayed their success into other areas that were their true passions it seems Jared is paving the way for a modern civilian core of astronauts.
I miss your weekly update on OLF! Watching the return to space documentary; I know that voice, and then experiencing your enthusiasm again was wonderful. As I wrote this I noticed there's another reunion up, and I will watch it. But you no longer appear in my YT feed, because I do not watch content that does not exist.. IMHO, you where on an excellent trajectory, and lost manoeuvrability at some point.. Your long form content is, possibly unmatched, but your off the cuff commentary has that as well - you don't have to prepare for 3 months, to present something in Walter Cronkites essence; you are the WC of our time! Please give us your commentary :)
With my understanding of space suits the only way to reduce or eliminate the pre breath protocols is to use a much higher suit pressure which impacts mobility of the suit. The solution I suggest is a high pressure suit with sophisticated power assist for walking, finger and hand dexterity and so on, and have the control of the suit synchronised with the users body via a Nuralink implant. Easier said than done of course.
One of the many exciting things about this first mission is to see the first (of hopefully many) SpaceX astronauts!
Pure ace stuff Tim and Jared. Thanks for giving us all shoulders to stand in and gaze into the cosmos ;)
Great interview!! I love how he is a fan of your work!! That’s a quote of a lifetime.
Thanks Tim and Jared!! Exciting times!!
Love watching your career continue to grow! Great video, and keep up the inspiration!
Tim, I'm not sure if you already intended to do so but I think it would be awesome if you could put a comprehensive video together of the birth of starship.
From the humble beginnings of Star Hopper through each flight test, the Elon interviews to the present. It's nice to go back and see the videos of each starship launch
but to have one well-produced video for posterity that explains the concept, the trials, the failures, to the ultimate successful landing for future generations to watch would be simply awesome.
And thanks for everything.
Watch our Falcon 9 vs Starship video and “SLS vs Starship” between those two you’ll get the whole history!
Gosh I cant wait to see the SpaceX Eva suits definitely gonna be a jaw drop.
I can imagine JIsaacman being seen and reminded as one of the great pioneers of space
How awesome is it that Jared and Elon found each other?! Two great and wealthy humans setting an example. Imagine if only 2 or 3 others join in and make true philanthropic impacts towards our scientific futures!
I believe they met each other on a business related telephone call.
