Thanks for watching everyone! It's a huge step for the channel to have its first sponsor, this allows me to keep the channel going. None of this would be possible without you! Thank you for watching!
Since the first succesful Falcon 9 landing in 2015, SpaceX have drastically cut the cost of spaceflight by landing and reusing multple boosters. In this video, we look at what goes into refurbishing the Falcon 9 and how it will eventually be replaced by the cheaper and more reusable Starship.

Best transition ever. Must have learned that from Skillshare.
Hahaha
Skillshare taught me how to comment this comment on TH-cam
Skillshare should pay you for this comment lol
Tg
Yup, had me fooled for a minute there.
That sponsor segway was so smooth I didn't even notice it
Uhh, the original spelling is actually segue, segway got their name from there I think
everything is an ad, be careful
Speaking of Segways, did you know the Segway i2 SE is currently in the market for just $6000? Stop wasting valuable time having your supervisor walk from one end of the sprawling factory to the other. With a Segway i2 SE you’ll improve your company’s efficiency on day one, saving you time and more importantly, money.
Same!
I just commented the same thing before I saw your comment LOL
This video is about reusable rockets that land autonomously. But the most mind blowing thing about it was the ad transition.
Sir?
my most recently used emojis
🗿🌝💀🤓🏃♀🐱🏍👌
Based on the first three comments I really can't wait for the ad transition.
Edit: I was trying to notice it and it still caught me totally off guard. Well done 😂
Not me
Hot damn
That ad transition was seamless. I didn't realize it was an ad until half-way through :)
Really? The moment he said "Skillshare" you didn't realize that? You are perfect for a consumer!! :)
@@Ggd07 You're not a consumer?
@@aconite72 Not as gullible and brain-dead as you are
Ggd07 k
That escalated quickly!!!
You plugged that skillshare ad so smooth at the end, damn 10 out of 10 man
Wait, there was a skillshare ad?
More like 11 out of 10.
That was way too smooth.
@@Infection3d hahaha. 9 months after my comment, I finally caved in and got a trial of skill share. I'll probably watch let some lightroom photo editing videos amd vegas pro editing vids lol.
99% of comments: ad transition.
1%: other.
I was about to post that LMAO
i was about to comment that lmao
You say the turn around time has dropped "only" by 249 days. That is huge I say. It has dropped over 70%
Not if you have 24h as goal
@@IlIlllIllIlIIIll I will remind you of this when the time comes, probably within 10 years.
Yea, but how about that ad transition!?
@@IlIlllIllIlIIIll Boy you better start buying some tasty hats :D
@@IlIlllIllIlIIIll I'll eat my shoes
3:43 is that Elon in the left corner?lol
cocktail365 omg 😮
“When you see it”
Someone please explain the joke I don’t get it
TheTekkitRealm - ALL PASSWORDS AND CLUES there is a small Elon musk in one of the boosters
you have good eyes lmao
That was the happiest I've ever felt seeing an ad with that transition
That was a flawless skillshare plug. Not abrupt, or interrupting the content half way thru the video. Well done.
up to 100 flights per falcon 9 booster, not 1000. elon said 10 with little to no referbishment and up to 100 with some referbishment.
A thousand flights per Merlin engine. Which seems about right if they want a hundred booster flights. The Merlin is fired once full duration after assembly, then integrated onto a booster, fired full duration with the 8 other engines, then the booster is shipped to the launch site, static fired for short duration. Then launch, reignition for boostback, reentry and landing burn, then the booster is shipped to a test stand and fired full duration to check it after flight. So for a single reusable flight you get anywhere from 3-5 flights worth of engine firing already. So hundred flights would be in the region of 500 for the engines, they'll probably run them on test stands even more on older boosters, so you'd want them to be able to take a thousand for margin. Obviously that's not the current state of things.
1000 flight for raptor engine, not merlin, every falcon 9 will fly only ten times according to Elon Musk.(raptor it's the engine that would be used onto starship/superheavy will be used 1000th time only for superheavy and 100th time for a tanker and starship when it's launched into LEO, booster would have shorter burning why's it would be able to make tenfold more flights with the same types of engines)
Great video. Amazing channel.
Great video, as always!
and smooth transition to that ad :)
The ad transition was so smooth just like a notch less phone.
SpaceX interviewer: What are your qualifications for joining our aerospace engineering team?
Me: well I don't have a college degree or anything, but I think my Kerbal Space Program game save will speak for itself.
4:52 Well you sneaky son of a b..... 😂
*notices smooth transition to advertising*
Aight, Imma head out.
Wow, that transition
I remember you having just a few hundred subscribers. Now look at you with sponsors, and a community of almost 140,000 people! congratulations!
Thanks for this video
That sponsor clip was so smooth.
🍪😀🧀🍪😎💩🧀🍪😀😎💩🧀😀😎🐡🚾🚾♿♿♿👍😂😂😂🅿😁😁🙏🙏😏😏🐡🍪💩👽👽😥🛣😄🚔🐻🏍🏍🏍
I hate ads, by the time I realized he was talking about an ad I stopped the video with only 7 seconds left lol. Got me good
This was the SMOOTHEST segue EVER!!!
Where's Linus? 😁
I loved it how you went over from Elon Musk to Skill Share. It took me a few seconds to realize that you went over.
That was the smoothest transition into advertisement ever, bravo.
Hope these type of ads don't become the norm. Everyone applauding how smooth it was - insane how easily people bend.
Love these videos.
I stumbled across this channel a few days ago and Im hooked. Keep up the great work.
goddamn i've never seen such a flawless and undetectable segue into the advertisement part of a video! man alive, that was smooth.
Great summary! I was very excited for the first Block 5 launch because of the better reuse potential.
Yo, that sponsor transition was so smooth that I didn't even mind finishing it
I liked the transition so much I actually supported you buy clicking on your link and starting a course. Respect
5:15 I feel mentally raped by such a subtle Skillshare advertisement transition. Hahahahaha.
You got me in the first half, I'm not gonna lie. That transition was dope HAHAHAHA
This deserves a like just for the skillshare transition
i didnt get why everybody says that. An ad in the beginning of the video what is the big deal?
The transition was really awsome, well done
Probably the best ad transition ever.
That ad, though! Even when I knew it was coming it still hit me.
I’m shocked her originally the space shuttle had such a quick turnaround time and the funny thing about the Challenger disaster was that it did not even involve the refurbishment of the orbiter
I'm not shocked at all: the STS originally was designed for a weekly launch cadence. The planned turnaround time was 14 days. See commons.erau.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2817&context=space-congress-proceedings
Perfect timing for this video to be recommended
Agreed, SpaceX just reused one of the Falcon 9 for the recording ten times...
I write this almost three years after recording this video... Just a few days ago Falcon 9 made its first twelfth landing (now we can see them with much higher quality thanks to the Starlink connection, it's crazy)
It is frankly everything that SpaceX has advanced in these years.
Starship hasn't flown into orbit yet, mostly due to regulatory issues (in theory, we're hoping to get the green light later this month), but the Raptor engine and the entire architecture has come a long way, so we're pretty hopeful. that Starship could begin commercial operations soon after its first test flight.
It will be very interesting to find out what will happen from now on.
Was about ten seconds in the advertisement when I noticed it wasn't about Space X anymore.
Same lol
I had to subscribe because of your detailed video and the ofc the secret Conversations.
I legit bought a course from skillshare just to appreciate the ad transition.
That's the best ad segue ever in TH-cam history.
Хорошее видео! Продолжай в том же духе) Я просто нигде не смог найти информации и тут ты меня выручил
waht an amazing transition
The last part of the Video is how you properly do an advertisement. Well done!
Great video. I've always asked how was the reusability process done? Thank you
In just three videos, this channel has became my favorite apart from Scott Manley, Everyday Astronaut, Kurzgesagt, Smarter Everyday, Veritasium and Seeker because of its satisfying voiceover and interesting topics.
Thats transition ahhahahah
Its sounds like he is encouraging us to apply as engineer for SpaceX then he mentioned skillshare
That was literally what I was thinking till I heard Skillshare. Wow!
Smoothest add I’ve ever seen lol good job! Great video
Holy hell. Best sneaky bridge to sponsor content ever. Well done.
Dang, that skillshare add on the end was so smooth, definetly gonna use it now lol
you must have learned it in skillshare
That segway to sponsor!! was smoooooth
5:20 damn smooth transition
Even though the add transition was mentioned in the comment I still miss the transition and realised a little later...
thank you for educational video
As soon as I heard "nowadays we are surrounded by amazing tutorials.." That was my queue to stop the video and move on lol Not gonna get meeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!
that skillshare ad was smooth!
Gotta give props to that transition
Great vid! Example of how advertisement SHOULD be done ;)
Skillshare needs to give you a bonus for that transition
Subscribed due to amazing voice and a spectacular ad transition👌
Absolutely filthy transition to the ad Bravo
That segway into skill-share commercial was smooth as fuck.
btw its spelled segue
wow that smooth transition to sponsor was clever
Nice entry for the ad. Didnt expect that. Lol
Great video, but what I have learned about SpaceX is that any information about them that is more than a few months old is SEVERELY outdated.
This, of course, was probably spot on when it was made.
You have integrated Skillshare so well. Some how it doesn't annoy me. Good job!
that ad transition was smooth ass
Totally awesome
nice with the dancing elon at 3:43
smoothest skillshare segue iii've ever seen! ;D
not as smooth as your voice, though, brother =P
your footage-finding skills / editing is ridiculous, too.
you're an inspiration
cheers
That freakin sponsor segue!
Great transition.
That sponsor segment was sooo smooooth
Just liked and subed. Great content, well presented and great food for the brain. Will watch the previous vids and all new ones.
I've been fascinated by space and space travel for 65+ years. I watched the live broadcast of, '(A)nd one giant step for ManKind', on a snowy 9" Blk/Wht TV, 50' underground on Level-2 of a Titan II ICBM Control Center with three other guys. No bunk time that night. But boy, was it worth it!
I realy hope to be able to see the Mars landing(s)!

That ad transition though
This got u a sub ...great work...👍
It’s so unfortunate that you can only work in SpaceX as a US citizen :((((( always been a dream working with such an industry
People talk about that ad transition but they don't realize that was done in order to distract them from that over 9000 drop @1:48.
That ad transition was wayyyy too smooth hahahaha
Damn nice transition
At 0:57 that was Bangladesh's geostationary communication satellite. Fellow Bangladeshi viewer here, been subscribed and watching your channel for about a year now.
That smooth ad seaway woah...
Seamless transition to sponsored content. Nice 👍
I watched an ad for a whole minute until realising it was an ad. Nice transition lol
They should name the boosters with more catchy names like their drone ships.
I signed up for skillshare, finished an advertising course then I realized the ad transition in this video.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Commercial begins at 4:53. Amazingly smooth transition.
Ngl those 9 Merlin engines produce the most beautiful flames ever
Your voices is very similar with the narrator of the Mass Effect lore. This make the video a lot better.
That transition was so smooth I slipped
I subscribed cuz of that transition to skillshare
These education channels have the smoothest fucking add transitions ever.
What a smooth way to introduce an ad
Most successful ad placement ever.
2:01 jesus christ! I didn't know they were that big! just imagine how much harder that was to land for that scale!
Falcon 9 will be with us for another 20 years
