- čas přidán 6. 12. 2023
- On November 18, 2023, Starship successfully lifted off at 7:02 a.m. CT from Starbase on its second integrated flight test.
While it didn’t happen in a lab or on a test stand, it was absolutely a test. What we did with this second flight will provide invaluable data to continue rapidly developing Starship.
The test achieved a number of major milestones, helping us improve Starship’s reliability as SpaceX seeks to make life multiplanetary. The team at Starbase is already working final preparations on the vehicles slated for use in Starship’s third flight test.
Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team on an exciting second flight test of Starship!

We need these streams back on CZcams, I need to see this on a large display.
Indeed. I was watching on my 48" 4K OLED that is my computer monitor. X resolution was like 480p-720 at best viewing quality. SpaceX, Elon, whoever is making these decisions. Look at your stats., 6.59 million subscribers to the channel and in the last 8 hours nearly a quarter million views of this video. The resolution of streams on CZcams are just better than X currently. Actually, just give your fiber HD engineering camera feeds to Tim Dodd and his team like NASA did for Artemis at the press site. He can plug them into his van and give loyal SpaceX viewers the finest web stream found on the internet..... in a 4K stream.
On a qled 85" Samsung this rocks! The audio is also super crisp running it through a receiver at 5.1 with a good sub. This was a fantastic video ❤
This wont be happening. There planning to slowly leave youtube and move to X formerly known as Twitter.
@@texr4 Folks with too much money throwing tantrums isn't good for anyone.
@@texr4that is sad news, how to watch x streams on android TV?
So great seeing all 33 Raptor engines staying lit during the entire Stage 1 ascent, excellent work!
wew they finally learned how to make some tubes
@@MrPaxio Oh yeah, could you make tubes?
@@MrPaxio tell me you don't know how complicated rocket engines are without telling me you know nothing about them
biggest oversimplifcation i have ever seen. Spoken like a true ignoramus@@MrPaxio
right awesome
With that music it is so cool to watch. It´s almost like a short cinematic movie, at the beginning where the ignition was there was silence and than the sound of the 33 Raptors fireing. Its just amazing! Great job.
Went to see it in person, the cheering and excitement doesn't compare like nothing else. Go SpaceX!!
I REALLY hope you start showing the Spacex launches on CZcams again, their are many many people who don't do social media and miss watching all the Falcon launches and updates.
Great work to all at Spacex as always.
Luckily there’s channels like NSF that stream almost every launch 👍
That's not going to happen any time soon, but the likes of LabPadre, NASASpaceFlight and Everyday Austronaut do stream on CZcams and provide a great alternative to the official stream. I'm also sure that if you look for a stream right before launch time, there will be plenty of channels restreaming the Twitter stream
@@ryanhamstra49
There's another one too called Launch Pad and it's the exact Spacex stream just not 4k
They're all shown on the spacex website live
@@Niosus
Thank you, I've been using one called Launch Pad but it's just 1080p, but better than nothing.
The hot staging shot at 1:10 is just MAGIC ! Congrats SpaceX team !
Yeah no kidding.
I cried there... this is magic!!
Ever since the titan series of rockets that I’ll see hot staging again. Now we have that philosophy returning
By far the coolest visual of the flight! Looking forward to the next attempt.
I love how two Genshin fans meet eachother in the comment section of a SpaceX video 😂
I am not misspeaking when I say: The whole country is so proud of the work you guys are doing at SpaceX. I think the whole world is in inspired by you and in awe of what you have accomplished already. Excited about the future and what comes next from the SpaceX gang.
*world. The whole world is proud.

This test flight was like night and day compared to the first . Congrats SpaceX team! IFT 3 🔜
but the 1st is everything
@@meenoomeenoo4578fr job done idk what they are doing why don’t they just go home
@@meenoomeenoo4578 The most important step is not the first one or the last one, its always the next one.
It blew up again 🤔
@@creatorsfreedom6734 but the first engine separated succesfully , so they are slowly getting there.
I’m 67, and I remember the space program from Mercury through Apollo. They used to wheel a TV into the classrooms so we could watch…you can’t imagine how thrilled I am to see this happening! SpaceX is just running away with the ball, so happy for everyone on the project 🙌
They should bring back nuclear blast drills.
@@sigmasquadleader If you are located in a school and a nuke goes off nearby there isn't anything you can do to survive buddy
I was the shuttle era and they did the same thing in classes, I even toured a facility in Southern California that was building parts for the shuttle.
Same age as you brother.... So excited about the future of Space Travel because of SpaceX. Exciting times just like back in the Apollo days.
@@mercerwing1458 That's the sort of ignorance about nuclear weapons that is a product of the Cold War. In reality, if a nuke goes off far enough away that it doesn't vaporize you (which will be most of the time unless you live on a military base) it would help a LOT to not be standing in the open for the heat and debris to kill or maim you.
It always amazes me that people can use the accounts of Hiroshima/Nagasaki survivors as evidence that there's nothing you can do to protect yourself from a nuclear blast. Umm, hello? SURVIVORS!
So mesmerizing to watch. Great job SpaceX for making amazing things such as this possible, you guys are awesome! So excited for IFT-3!
I was about to type that exact word : mesmerizing
IFT 3 the official one is OFT 3 or I said OFT 1
How sister sneezes:🤧
How mum sneezes:🤧

ONBOARD FOOTAGE! Yesssssss finally! Huge congrats to all teams down at Starbase and elsewhere who made this flight possible. Cant wait for flight 3!
Hmm, I'm thinking there must have been an issue with the cameras/connection given that they only had that one onboard camera for footage during flight. The flap cam was working on the pad, so if it was working they'd have shared it. Shame, those views would have been beyond amazing
We all knew they had constant on board telemetry. To tell you the truth, I'm not surprised they're saving it. Now that they're getting closer to having it perfected, time to make sure the Chinese don't have enough details to just copy it.
right awesome
@@LordFalconsword That's not the same bandwidth requirement, and a issue could have been at any point along the line. Also, I don't believe for a second they're withholding footage, particularly outside of the vehicle, to keep "secrets".
SpaceX are very good with fan service and know just how much people would lap up that kind of footage, so it's absence appears to be some issue imo
But no inside tank shots to reveal what was going on with the fuel inside superheavy during the flip. 😔
We know there's video now though - I can see a liquid oxygen (blue) tank video feed at 1:20 on the right wall 4th TV on the top....
Excited to see SpaceX making history in our lifetimes(:
SpaceX inspires me.. My parents said if i get 70K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging...
Again and again...
this was already done decades ago. AND IT BLEW UP
@@MrPaxiothis has never been done before
No history yet. Just fireworks so far and a human rating that will never happen.
Human excellence overcoming everything
Got me right in the feels! Keep going SpaceX and NEVER give up!
The length of the flame plume is completely insane. Starship fully stacked is like the same height as a 30 story building, but then the flame plume spits out to more than twice its height, the plume and starship combined probably are almost 100 stories tall
The plume is the hight of the Shard in London
The plume was at least 1000ft
Its called low atmospheric pressure. Everything expands like crazy in low atmosphere.
@@broli123 It is crazy long right off the pad though, when most of the plume is still at like atmospheric pressure
the raptor engines are vaccuum engines.
their exaust is lower presure than the outside air.
hence the shock dimonds@@Michaelonyoutub
1:06 The shutdown of the engines, in a ring, from the outside to the inside!! Pure exhibitionism from Spacex!! A true spectacle!!
Oh, it's more than that. Remember that rocket engineering is, more than anything else, extreme plumbing. When all the engines are running, you've got lots of liquid moving through pipes really fast. You can't just suddenly stop 90% of that flow all at once, the liquid's momentum will cause it to keep going and damage stuff. It's basically the same thing as water hammer in your pipes, but a lot more extreme. Instead, you need to reduce it gradually by shutting down a few engines at a time, giving everything time to slow down. And, of course you need to do it symmetrically, so you don't wind up with imbalanced thrust.
@@KingdaToro Thanks for the explanation!!
@@KingdaToro This, gotta prevent fluid hammer and its a notorious problem with fuel shutoff during stage separations.
@@KingdaToro I assume this has never really been much of a problem for most rockets because those were just going to end up in the ocean anyway, so it didn't matter if some of the plumbing got wrecked, right?
Yeah that's #1 for me and I still continue to get extremely hype each time I watch that part. My 2nd favorite is right before and at the time they strike that overly engineered cigar lighter... IJS
I just keep watching it over and over. Amazing is an understatement
Giving me goosebumps, here.
Can’t wait to see her orbit.
I love this!
Please bring back live launches to CZcams, or make a smart TV app for X so we can watch it on a big screen instead of our phone.
for now you can screen share to your TV.
@@davidh4921 the quality isn't high enough to do that.
to be honest it was your mistake to use the internet on a tv. get a computer and connect that to your tv. this way you can enjoy the internet the way it was intended, not the way samsung etc want you to.
Включи Ютуб на телике 😂
Pick up a Chromecast attachment for TV and you can cast it to your TV from your iPhone.
One of the most exciting launches I've ever watched, Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team!
3rd flight attemp will be an amazing Christmas gift
Amazing shots guys. Huge props for effort. I have to keep reminding myself how big this thing really is.
I get goosebumps everytime i watch this. Amazing job Spacex! I hope someday to get to see one in person.
I love how the music is in sync with the booster's engines shutting down during staging.
I came back here, some day before the third starship flight test. Cant wait to see the improvements from the past test. Take us to the moon and beyond spaceX ❤
I can't wait until the IFT-3 video. I was there when it lifted off and it's every bit as spectacular as you'd think ... and then some.
i loved watching this live. it was so exiting watching stage separation after the First launch in June-July. Keep up the good work Space X. OCCUPY MARS!
didnt even orbit
@@codefeenix not the point, the point is it did better than the Last time it Launched
That was epic! No matter what you do on Twitter, please do not abandon live-streaming on CZcams.
You mean 'X' not Twitter anymore
@@johnmarksuarez83Nobody calls it that
@@smow7422 Nobody calls you that
@@johnmarksuarez83 🤓
@cogoid my point exactly... the X/Twitter streams aren't up to par with CZcams yet.
It was an unforgettable and wonderful moment in my life. Thank you SpaceX team!
❤❤
Rewatching this launch never gets old, it’s so impressive watching that thing take flight!
Amazing! I cutted several 15 seconds videos of this one to see in my smartphone. Gorgeous.
That shot of the booster's engines relighting after separation at 1:15 is so cool!
This Super Heavy Booster Prototype’s name is Super Heavy Booster 9!!!!!!!!!!
To all you hardworking SpaceX engineers I love you all. Thank you for all that you do.
Man, seeing that footage in 4k is amazing!!! Congrats on that flight it was brilliant! Next time it orbits and comes back down, I'd bet money on it!
Progress, baby steps. Salute and congratulations 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
I drove down for my birthday and wasn't disappointed. Being there was beyond amazing! Keep up the Great work!
What a great birthday gift to yourself :)
I’m glad you did! Excellent choice. My birthday was on the 17th, one day before. Believe me, I toyed with the same idea, myself.
What made me hesitant was the slim flight window. That, and the eventual, staggered scrub success of Starship 1. It’s always a greater risk on these early runs. If it’s scrubbed for a different day, there’s the difficult choice of returning home for good, or renting a motel to hope the following two days don’t have a repeat.
Here’s hoping I get a similar, golden opportunity next year. For what it’s worth, I’m glad you took the risk for those of us birthday celebrators that balked at the leap. :)
Still. Can’t beat the Leonids.
@@RosemarieCatSarahR We made it for the final flight of the space shuttle and it was unforgettable. We have a 1 year old now so I hope to see Starship in person when traveling is a bit easier. Maybe we'll both be in Texas when that happen. :)
Keep going SpaceX. You're inspirational.
Stage separation was beautiful.
Awesome! The sound of the engines on lift-off was just the sound of pure immense power!
The way the first stage engines shut down in sequence is awesome! Well done SpaceX.
Congrats to the SpaceX team on another SPECTACULAR launch. Im Ready to watch IFT3!
Это было потрясающе! Ждём с нетерпением тест 3!
Really great video. Kudos to the team who put it together. It's a nice end of year present to all the fans of SpaceX and space exploration in general.
Those engines shutting off before stage separation was awesome!
Whoever came up with turning MECO into Most Engines Cut Off is a goddamn genius.
the view from the booster after stage-separation was incredible
VERY well made video! Love this!.
Goosebumps every time.
I keep coming back to watch this ❤
This was so cool. Excitement guaranteed for sure. I'm really hopeful that IFT3 improves on the past two successes and gets to re-entry so that we can see how the heat shield performs. Whatever happens though, as long as there is new data it's a win. Congratulations to everyone who got to play a part in this project.
Yeah the heat shield would be interesting. Good chance it won't survive the first attempt of reentry. I also wonder how well their "belly flop" maneuver will work. They actually tested it successfully once, but I'm not sure whether they also did reach terminal velocity.
Latest word is IFT-3 won't have a heat shield or flaps, because they're going to try to do an orbital cryo fuel transfer demonstratiton (between two tanks inside the ship). I guess they're confident to reach orbit on the 3rd try, and would rather do something actually 'useful'. The way IFT-2 was shedding heat tiles, it wouldn't surprise me if SpaceX feels they need to tweak their tile attachment methodology a bit before there's even any point in trying a re-entry.
@@OrqwithVagrant yeah that makes sense. Sort out the tiles popping off and then make a heat shield assessment on a complete heat shield.
This is a spectacular feat of human ingenuity and co-operation, long live the entire team at SpaceX! 👏
it was a failed launch portrayed as a success LMAO
@@Danuxsy do you know what is the "TEST"?
@@Danuxsy you know they blew up like five falcon 9 rockets before they landed one for the first time, now they are carrying humans to the ISS routinely
weve got at least another 3 launches before that threshold is broken lol
Yes I'm aware of that! You know how many times NASA tried the landing of the Curiosity rover on Mars? Zero times.@@ixxxxxxx
Always pushing forward!
Love to see it. Better every time around
Massive respect. If you want to inspire more people, put the live streams back on CZcams!
Would love to see a lot more on board footage if you have it to share!
Probably will once X (Twitter) dies.
hopefully soon @@JasonB808
Live streams create complications because it's more difficult to alter the reality of certain failures after the launch, but to the same point, China and Russia can't see immediate failures from our populous rocket entertainment live broadcasts. Maybe science SHOULD be left to scientists, and the billionaires should be silent after-all.
Unfortunately, we get neither. Our enemies gain knowledge directly from the private sector, and the billionaires profit in the long run by ensuring competition.
@sigmasquadleader
You understand that there's like 100 cameras at any one time, waiting for this thing to launch. SpaceX is far from the only one recording.
How the hell could they cover up that?
@@JasonB808 X has 100 million new active monthly users, it's not dying anytime soon
It looks almost like an animation, the performance of those 33 Raptor engines was flawless 😊
Give it 50 years and people will be saying it was faked
Flawless until they turned off and exploded. Weren't they gonna do an actual flight in space instead of having to abandon that mission? What did they learn from this flawless flight?
@jonathanwieringa8808 the booster performed perfectly until after separation when it started the boost back. The Starship actually did make it to Space..for a second test flight with a completely new launch system, it went pretty well.
@@Kennerad0 great, so we'll be on mars by 2021 with this progress
@@jonathanwieringa8808 AT least with space X there are real progress to be made for human on mars, without it US are stuck with boondogle job creation called SLS.
The way the turned off engines is really amazing
This gave me goosebumps! I feel so lucky to be alive at such an important time and be able to see this incredible company grab humanity by the scruff of the neck and drag it into the future! Thankyou SpaceX ❤
I honestly think the 3rd flight will succeed!
In 50 years, I'll think back and remember moments like this! You're making history.
0:31 THIS SOUND. No words. Wonderful. How inspiring!! GO SPACEX!.
Wish there was more onboard camers footage
More on board cameras please! I love to see them!!
I am in awe every time I see a starship take off, and when I see the catch, and when I see the second stage flop manoeuvre, and when I see the Falcon 9/Heavy booster landings. Simply mind blowing how we’ve gone from barely getting off the ground to landing objects that have been into space.
Congrats team spacex this is was breathtaking
Excellent editing, fire music, and HELLA EPIC SECOND TEST FLIGHT!! Great job to everyone at SpaceX and all of those involved with the creation and testing of the Starship! I can't wait to see the improvement on the next test flight!
I was there for this launch and it was absolutely unbelievable! Videos don’t do it justice as there’s the sight, sound, vibration and complete awestruck moment you don’t get from a video. Can’t wait to see the next launch!
and you didnt record it?
@@matthewthompson8058 Someone else can record it. Best to live in the moment sometimes
Wow the pace of improvement is unbelievable
What an epic edit! Can't wait for the next one
The onboard footage is just phenomenal i cant stop watching it
Inspiring, Mom always told me “shoot for the stars because you’ll land on the moon” I always think about it when I look up, Thank you guys for always pushing yourselves, it reminds me to do the same
That's actually SpaceX's internal design philosophy, or at least an aspect of it.
you make it to the moon yet?
This was so amazing to watch. It's almost hard to believe that this massive monster of a rocket can fly this well. Can't wait to see what the future holds! Massive thanks to SpaceX for letting us witness the full development of Starship since the early days of Starhopper!
Last two shots, simply give me goosebumps. It is just the start... so many more to come, scary
1:17 THERE IT IS THERE IT IS!!!! Highest views of Starship flying independently since SN15 !
LOVE TO SEE IT
Since SN8 you meant
Sn8 went 12.5 Km in the air while Sn15 went 10 km
Then there’s the record breaker ship 25. 150 km. Orbital altitude
I’ve never seen a more beautiful machine, brilliant work SpaceX . Flight 3 👍🏻
INCREDIBLE WORK work hard one day we will make it definately. 🎉🎉
Every time i watch this beautiful footage i'm getting goosebumps all over my body... even if i watch it a thousand times!!
What a great development, what a great piece of technic... almost art!
This video made my day. Thank you for putting it together! Onboard camera views! Control room views! You all really are the best.
We really wanna see more onboard views from starship! :')
Go SpaceX!
Outstanding video! Huge kudos to the camera people and editors. Fantastic combination of shots and music.
Incredible to watch live. Keep up the good work!
0:31 THIS SOUND. No words
the roar is so awesome!!
Love it! looking forward to IFT 3 this week ❤
Nothing else than goosebump. Thanks SpaceX
always a good day when spacex posts a vid. great job both to the people making the video, and the people who make starship possible
amazing moment amazing team of people what a great achievement
Awesome! I really want to be there in person for the next Flight
As always, an outstanding job on the video and editing.
Was the very first launch that I ever saw live, and it was epic. It was an amazing moment in history that I was lucky enough to see in person and it was one of the best moments of my life. It will stick with me forever, and i'm very proud to say I was there to witness it.
Awesome times, thanks to everyone at SpaceX for your work on this!
So awesome! You're literally inspiring the toddler on my lap with every video!
He wants you guys to fix that rocket ship. I do too! Keep going!!
Congratulations ! another step is done ! greetings from France
HELL YEAH! Onto flight 3 baby!
You guys are the best. Every single person working on this, thank you!
the music name is:
Imploding Dimensions
Thank you, i was wonder what it was!
I really love this moment!
MECO (most engines cut off) was awesome and the hot staging was one of the best things I've seen.
Literal banger. Don't care so much about seeing the flight over and over again but its always worth seeing the joy and happiness of the people who work on this program.
And the camera shot of the back heads of the spectators!
Congratulations to Space X team on a Phenomenal launch. I have never seen a more spectacular lift off. The acceleration was amazing I don’t know if most people can truly appreciate what a great accomplishment this is. You all deserve to celebrate this is just the beginning of something greater than anything mankind has yet to be achieve.
Whole lot of Awesomeness... Space X 🔥🚀🔥
Congratulations to the whole SpaceX team! We in Germany are also watching your career with great interest. I was really shaking all over during IFT2. That was an amazing launch. I'm really looking forward to the third test flight
I'm sitting in germany and seriously consider flying to Texas for the next launch, I desperately want to see this with my own eyes!
@davidb6535 just accept in advance it might get delayed. I traveled there from the east coast US to watch an earlier one and didn't get to see it.
It is however 100% worth it regardless. Are you aware of how close you can get when it's not a test day? I was less than 50ft from one of the unused rockets and only couple hundred from the launch tower.
@@Hokie2k11 I was going to be Florida at the time of the launch of Perseverance, but unfortunately COVID kept me from visiting at the time. I still hope to see a rocket launch some day, perhaps from Kennedy, or maybe Kourou.
