Starship and Super Heavy Orbital Test Animation
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- With suborbital Starship tests seemingly complete with SN15's successful landing, all eyes are on the first orbital test flight of a full Starship-Super Heavy stack. This test, scheduled to take place only in a few month's time, will feature the world's tallest and most powerful rocket ever built taking flight for the first time. This animation shows the proposed flight plan of that first orbital test flight.
NOTE: Some aspects of this animation are inaccurate or out of date. During the production many new pieces of information were revealed that weren't known at the time certain scenes were animated.

Incredible work! This is pure eye candy and we all love it. Thanks for inspiring so many with the work you all do.
Yeah it definitely is
agreed
If all the BN is used for, is to hall SN into orbit, that would be an increadable mass to hall up. I wonder if 4 to 6 falcons on a o-ring brass around the SN canister could do the same, or cost less, if to orbit deploy only.
@@ckdigitaltheqof6th210 Superheavy has an approximate thrust of around 14 MN of thrust while f9 has about 1.7MN... It would take about 8 falcon 9s strapped together... Conclusion: SH is a beast.
@@rishiparitala88 falcons should have had differant scale size, which explains why not, unfortunately.
Absolutely incredible! The wait was definitely worth it 😍

The most incredible thing is that you did this for free and without wanting recognition. And that’s why I know that we will get to Mars within our lifetime. That we’re finally in an era that we stopped carrying about the monetary value in things and start becoming passion for what we want and love , Great job.
Totally agreed!
Passion won’t pay for the fuel to get to Mars tho 🤣
@@andresponce305 the fuel is methane and oxygen. Both can be produced cheaply. It’ll get it the point that these rockets are more cost effective than jets.
@@lilwrighto7793 Methane: produced naturally by cows, who fart out more methane than people actually release into the atmosphere.
Oxygen: The single most common element on the planet. Plus, plants/algae produce it naturally.

Just a detail :
só um detalhe :
I think the wings will not be so open when re - entering ...
Acho que na reentrada as asas não estarão tão abertas ...
I think they will only be exposed to high temperatures in the denser layers of the atmosphere to facilitate maneuverability of the ship ...
Acho que elas só serão expostas as altas temperaturas já nas camadas mais densas da atmosfera para facilitar a manobrabilidade da nave ...
in the upper layers where the plasma will form aerodynamic pressures will be very strong and mechanisms and wings would be ripped off
nas camadas superiores onde se formarão o plasma as pressões aerodinâmicas serão muito fortes e os mecanismos e as asas seriam arrancadas
Way to go!!

From what it seems, it aint far whatsoever
But be also prepared that it might not go as smoothly as here.
@@randomaccessfemale Yeah i wonder lately what succes rate this program really has. seeing the tiles etc makes me really question if this will suffer the same faith as the spaceshuttle
@@Deeveeaar was thinking the same thing but i’m sure they’ll manage to get good data! considering the fact that it’s been about a year since they started with the prototype test! so exited!!
@@fermentedfruit ohh yes this is very exciting! 😎
So much attention to details and accuracy. You guys should make real movies.
I agree! Also, not to be rude, but "accuraty" is pretty hilarious.
@@eccentricity23 That's fine I'm French ^^
What do you mean? This IS a real movie!
"accuracy", All the GSE Tanks are the same object, there are 2 different size GSE tanks but are set to the same overall height by adjusting the height of the concrete base, they are missing the GSEC's entirely (the covers that will be used to allow insulating the tanks), the other tanks that are believed to be Methane and Oxygen Chillers are flat out missing from the site, the Booster appears to be half covered in heatshield tiles which it won't have as it will do a boost back and entry burn like the Falcon 9. And frankly not sure where they are getting the idea of the base of Super Heavy getting wider like that.
@@DanielRichards644 There is no heatshield on superheavy in this render, it's just stainless steel with a mirror like finish.
And BN2 thrust dome holes are just on the edge of the booster so the base will be wider.
So that's were all the GPUs have gone, it's to make this Masterpiece.
Rofl
Worth it
Lol worth it tho
Lol

F*ckin hell Elon. You is a superstar. You have blown all the old facts and the nay sayers right off the planet 👍
Agreed
This video helps a bit to appreciate how the booster will have so much power that the blast from its thirty, plus or minus, Raptor engines will fly out and away from the OLT (orbital launch table) as it begins to lift off, likely knocking over the LOX and liquid methane tanks in the GSE tank farm and igniting the mixture, unless some blast diversion system is installed. Cape Canaveral launch pads have huge blast diversion structures, but SpaceX seems to think that the booster, with roughly twice the power of the Saturn 5, will not need any such blast diversion structures.
Best animation so far, keep up the good work guys!!!!!!
i agree 100%
great animation and very realistic !
just hope the real launch goes as well
Unfortunately, it cut right before the scene where the dolphins pushed the floating Starship to Hawaii... :-)
I almost got a tear out from 7:35. Just a year ago.. that "swing" and landing would almost be like sci-fiction... but now, with SN8 up to SN15... its proven it works
It hasn’t proven it works at all. A one time occurrence isn’t proven, it’s going to be a while until it’s proven.
@@veritateseducational217 It has worked, and that proves beyond any doubt that it is possible.
@@rogerfreeman6787
I’m not saying it isn’t possible, I’m saying it isn’t proven. It’s going to take a lot of testing as well as trial and error before it get reliable like Falcon 9.
@@veritateseducational217 it was proven with SN15, the ship is still standing till today
@@Cursed_Baljeet
As exciting as it was to watch SN15 succeed, it barely did anything compared to what they are promising. I’ll wait for the orbital test, the static fire didn’t go well for the TPS
Imagine the feelings of people who told this system wouldn't work seeing this thing nail everything in flight test 2
Literally goosebumps
I think it might nail everything on test 2, considering that probably all the problems with 24/7 were due to damage from concrete slamming into it
@@jaypaint4855Disagree, multiple engines that were working fine shut down mid flight, the hydraulic power unit which was not even in the blast radius failed, and all stage separation mechanisms failed completely. Not saying the concrete didn't do anything, but the likelihood of so much concrete directly damaging so many engines while leaving the bottom of the O2 tank completely unharmed seems improbable.
@@livingexcuse3767after flight 2, the concrete and hpus were the problem
This is the largest animation collaboration ever conducted by Starship fans. The quality is completely the best top notch!

Almost like real life, this is how much animations have progressed.
Holy cow it’s been three months since your last video… We have missed you so much and can’t wait to see this!
I actually got a little sad when that SH hit the water. I say this is art.
I also got a little sad seeing it hit the water
I though the plan was to catch it mid air using a landing tower?
@@Unmannedair eventually, but for SN-20 both are planned for ocean splashdown so they dont damage any equipment (if it survives Super Heavy's takeoff that is)
starship wont land on land because if somsething goes wrong with reentry, pieces will land all over populated areas
Me too
This is a marvelous animation. Note: It has the grid fins folded, which they won't be.
I almost cried out of happiness while watching this. Loved this animation a lot
Wow! Not many people understand just how much work goes into an animation with that much detail. Inspiring, well done guys.
What a wonderful moment to be alive.
Your TEST animation gave me chills... I'll probably pass out when you release the final. Outstanding.

Very good! The grid fins are staying up now though
Why it’s landing on water tho ?
yeah, I don't understand why grid fin doesn't fold anymore like this animation
@@officialspock spaceX simulations showed that folding the fins is not needed, so they will test with the fins out now to see of they can remove the folding mechanism entirely, eliminating a potential point of failure
Only for the first launch. They will fold on final version.
@@zoidburg2975 i may be mistaken, but I’m fairly sure that they Elon said they would keep the grid fins unfolded in his interview/starbase tour with everyday astronaut.
Amazing, can't imagine how much work went into this. Truly brilliant.
Never seen anything like this. No words to describe. Simply beautiful. Chefs kiss.
I got emotional during the Starship decent. Well done! Wouldn't be great to see this on the first flight. Elon and crew certainly have the plan and the production / design group. Good Flight SpaceX and Good Flight C-Bass and Neopork!
I'll add my voice to the chorus. This work is magnificent in and of itself. Plus, it demonstrates so vividly what's possible online when so many people, including artists, get so interested in a topic and then work together to make such a collective work of art. I feel so great about our community and about how SpaceX's innovations, success, and openness have sparked all this into being. I can't thank you guys enough. Keep up the great work!!!
This right here is proof that space travel has the capacity to unite people in a way that nothing else can match.
On top of that, it's the one and only thing that's capable of replacing war as the driving force of tech development.
And to think some people ask why we need to go to space.
Right on
Musk has single handedly restarted the space race. I'm pretty sure he'll end up on top but either way it's such a step forward for mankind.
@@carljohan9265 Honestly makes my blood boil when people disregard space travel or space curiosity in general. I asked a girl I worked with if she saw the SN15 landing and she was just like "I saw something about a rocket on the news but I kinda switch off about stuff like that, doesn't interest me". Grrr! If everyone was like her, we'd still be in the god damn stone age.
@@jcarrandson I saw another person who basically said "we should not go to Mars because people will die if we do".

Oh he will
@@maximopadula4787 It's a joke. I can explain it if you like, the joke.
One thing is that the grid fins don’t fold. They are stationary. Per Elon. Definitely the best , realistic video done
A decision more recent than this video. :)
@@1218omaroo yes. Most had that wrong.
Green Raptor cones ... the frosting ... the soundtrack !!
We have to be careful; this flight may be disappointing in reality after this ;-)
Why the green?
@@vistaero As I understand, it's a layer of special oxide formed when forming the nozzle steel in a vacuum, as opposed to the grey oxide that used to form with the previous process in air. The green oxide works as a much better protection surface against rust than the grey oxide, besides being more resistant to abrasion.
The day this happens will be so sweet, I cannot wait.
I have big big confidence in the Space X team that the orbital test will be a great success on the first try! ❤️
I don’t think “Holy Shit” will cut it when the whole stack launches
I’ll literally shid and coom when that happens
Every car alarm in brownsville will be joining the celebration.
@@tapio83 especially over on South Padre Island. SpaceX needs to launch this beast in the wee hours of the morning 👩🏾🦰😏♥️

Now, THAT was impressive ! Great job on the animation... Lottsa talent + brains + sweat, on display there !!!
I love the way the Starship is still a such a new and somewhat uncertain program with all of its complexity and just the pure scale of what Elon envisions to achieve with it and yet seeing any sort of renders of the Starship sitting atop the Super Heavy going to orbit just feel so much more realistic and reliable than Blue Origin sending a pair of Bezo's old socks to the lower Earth orbit (even)... Go SpaceX! Absolutely beautiful render by the way!
Of course a spacex fanboy finds a way to bring blue origin into this
this will never happen in real life

Excellent excellent job. This animation actually evoked an emotional response. When the music slowly faded, then gimbal, music comes back strong with engine start. I shed a tear. No shit, I really did.
Incredibly stunning animation, well done guys!
Great idea with the cargo...awesome film.
This's one of my favourite videos on youtube now
Amazing, this is a masterpiece.
Amazing work! I especially enjoyed the attention to detail in some sequences. Some of my favorites: the smoke/vortices effects viewed from above at 1:22, the multiple ground telescope views, the discrete logo on the engine bell of Starship in the "skirt" shots, the LOX tank view at 4:00 (wow! great idea), the shadow shot over illuminated land at 4:35 (very cinematic! and definitely worth developing further with higher-res and more realistic textures), the gradual lighting during re-entry at 6:06 which really emphasizes this incoming heat, and finally the shot at 7:08 "caught" by the telescope operator which is _fantastic_ and one of the best examples of your creativity really showing throughout this video.
Things I found a bit confusing or have questions about, if I may make some constructive suggestions (please don't take these as criticism, I have nowhere near the skills required to produce this sort of animation, just trying to be helpful): at 4:25 there's a shot of Starship with what looks like 3 vacuum-optimized Raptor engine + 3 sea-level ones; is that the plan? I realize none of the vacuum nozzles have been tried on a Starship prototype yet so we've never seen those, but the configuration made me wonder if these plans have been released yet. All throughout, the ice on the vehicle: it's a great touch on the launchpad as it is being filled with cryogenic propellants but I think you can probably remove it after Max-Q, it's not going to stick with all the air friction and vibrations and it's not like the cryo tanks and touching the fuselage. I would assume that it'll be clear of ice pretty quickly. Finally I'd suggest also thinking about some other effects like the surface heating and the way it's rendered like at 6:40 (I get what you're going for but the tiger-stripe effect might be a bit too much), and the water splashes which are like a whole entire domain of specialization by themselves and can _always_ be made better (people publish new techniques almost every year at SIGGRAPH).
Once again, incredible work and congrats on this beautiful video. I hope the suggestions are taken as they are meant to be, just friendly advice from a fan. I can't wait for the next one!
-Yes, the current plan for Starship is 3 sea-level engines and 3 vacuum optimized engines.
-Ice survives launch pretty readily, actually. Ice on the LOX tank of the Falcon 9 during reentry is what causes the solid line in the soot from the entry and landing burns. Some comes off, but not all.
-Yeah, water effects are new for me, but I learned a lot making this video!
@@CbassProductions Interesting, thanks for the details!
Great animation. Love the music, what is it? I don't see any credit for that? (specifically the starship theme at 3:30 onwards)

Is that a spotted pig skin paint job?
@@johndododoe1411 no thats just frost on the tanks from the cryogenic fuels
@@TheSpaceEngineer Tank frost isn't usually in those organic shapes. I assumed a pig skin texture because Neopork is involved, otherwise it would have been the similar looking cows.
@@johndododoe1411 its like that because of the apparent low gravity, so the fuel is floating in the tank, at least thats my theory, but then it doesnt make sense because superheavy was accelerating in that shot. I didnt make the animation, I dont know the logic behind it, but its likely because of the propellant floating in the tanks (which again, still doesnt make total sense since it is accelerating)
Those smoke simulations - 10/10
Still watching... Speechless. To everyone who was involved, this is some unreal imagineering of an event that has yet to take place.
Couldn't agree more
I freaked out because I didn’t read “animation” and i thought i missed it! You’re too talented for your own good!
The real thing will be 1000 more spectacular!
This is mesmerizing. Can't wait to see the actual test flight of Starship and Super Heavy. These artists are awesome!!!
There won't be any frost on the outside of SS in the vacuum of space. As soon as SS is out of the atmosphere and in the sun, the high temperature and low pressure will sublimate all of the frost, and it won't pick up any new moisture in space, nor would the empty fuel tanks cause the moisture to freeze on the surface even if it did.
Looks so good though...
You mean out of the stratosphere? The atmosphere is pretty damn big.
Aah was that the patchy 'Jersey Cow' effect visible as it progressed after launch. At one point it even looked like thick foam with chunks bitten out of it as it entered orbit. Yes that bit did look a bit odd to my eye but nonetheless an otherwise excellent animation.
@@JackHudler Scott Carpenter --Gemini??
Also there would be no one moment simultaneous engines shutdown, no engines glow on first stage reentry, no horizontal floating on water (center of mass on engines) etc etc

To think that that ship 3mm thick and covered in 10mm shields (which is thinner than my flat screen TV) sprayed with thermal protection coating, humanity has come far and will only go further

@@jonmab6990 The shell of the vehicle is only three mm thick, and the rest is hollow apart from the internals

Felt like I was actually there. Great great job!!!!!
Omg this was the best animation I’ve seen anyone produce! 😱😱
Super job! Obviously the design of the SuperHeavy booster keeps changing at every Elon tweet, but this is an awesome effort. Thanks.
the risk with doing this kind of animation works, is that at the speed spaceX is going now, they could launch the real thing before the animation is even rendered
Absolutely stunning! Although I imagine you model the physics by hand. If you could find someone to run it through a simulator and give you the results, that would be the dictionary definition of perfect!!
That was such a great animation!!
Mannn look this was so amazing to watch like almost the real thing! This was awesome work it damn near made me cry because of the excitement this is going to come with...the accomplishments..the hope! It was beautiful, I’m sure the day this takes place it will tears in the eyes of the workers, Elon, the staff just from the joy that’s coming off of this I CANNOT WAIT!!
I can’t wait to watch the real thing. It may help to add some voice to the animation, for example Everyday Astronaut shouting “no way!”
Or John I doing the voice over, from countdown to splashdown!
No.
Maybe put Angry Astronaut's voice in there.
6:06 “HELLO THIS IS VIVIAN ROGERS”

Skyscraper falling out of the sky...
70m* as starship is 50m but as Adam says, a skyscraper. Quite literally as this thing is TWENTY-EIGHT STORIES tall!
SS is FIFTEEN STORIES
Moody oh yeah 70m my bad
This really could be the real camera footage of the first superheavy booster start
No trust me the real launch will be a million time better!
Just mind blowing animation. You deserve more views although people came here just for watching it🙂
If this is actually how the first orbital flight goes, I will be absolutely amazed.
Can’t wait to hear what 29 raptors sound like.
you probably would hear slight pop and then silence. ~150dB @ 5 miles ;)
I love how you keep the camera angle realistic in the first minutes and how you simulate the real life camera exposing behavior most of the time. I'm not talking about the lens flare, I'm talking about how bright the earth is and how backlight effect make the stars disappear.
felt emotional after watching this. Can't wait for the launch
