It has been yet another week of staggering scenes around SpaceX’s Starship development sites. We’ve had fire with a new twist! SpaceX's FINAL Starship Static Fire! But why? Yes, Suborbital Pad B is no more! There have been so many vehicles rolling and views to show, it was hard to even know where to start. Mixed with the continual action and setbacks to dive into outside Starbase. We had Starliner attempting to fly, SpaceX's Extravehicular Activity (EVA) Suit, Starlink - Group 6-57, Group 6-56 & Group 8-2, HyImpulse, and Chang’e 6 Update! What a week!

baby rover on the moon lol
Cool ! Love it !
So with the SR75 rocket using paraffin as fuel, I guess that brings a whole new meaning to the phrase "let's light this candle".
...and there you go stealing everybody's thunder lol
I wonder if it's Scented? 😂
I have missed one moment... Is it solid or liquid propellant rocket? 😅
Just don't burn it at both ends.
My guess for the “mystery” ship #26 is that it’s the orbiting fuel depot. Being permanently in orbit means it would need thrusters but neither a heat shield nor atmospheric control surfaces.
Totally agree
It would need to come back to reload. Only Lunar landers need no shield or atmosphere thrusters.
@@blackterminalThey would refuel the depot using other starships, so it wouldn’t need to reenter
@@blackterminal No. It will be refilled in orbit. At least ten flights with starship tankers will be needed to refill one orbital starship fuel depot.
Ideal would initially be ship to ship refilling using a ship as temporary orbital storage then later make a more permanent orbital depot that never returns. so makes it harder to tell regarding if one would want recovery hardware for the test articles or not. very hard to not constantly second guess ourselves on this one.
This always makes Saturday morning very cool...
You mean 11pm Saturday night. 😅
days off in the wk?@@craigmackay4909
You mean 1pm Saturday afternoon
@@craigmackay4909g'day here at 11am Saturday in Florida. 🤠
I do like this weekly format rather than an almost daily upload of almost no new info.
I have always loved the Star Hopper. Glad it's staying. It's the icon of Starbase.
Me too and it looks like Elon has affection for the little guy as well!
I don't see missing tiles after that static fire! Progress!
The were tiles shaken off, watch the NSF footage.
@@mirador698 I hope the new test stand at Massey's is gentler on the ships.
@@riparianlife97701 It should be. We may even see full-duration static fires (depending on the water usage of the deluge system)
I'm headed to South Texas next week. I hope that there is a Starship launch during the week that I will be there.
Look up above..
Good to see Ship30 didn't lose tiles in the static fire test.
Good fiery and Aurora morning, Marcus!
Trying to find it myself here in Tasmania. I've got a bit too much light pollution. I might be best to try and head way out into the darkness tomorrow night when I don't have a fresh video that has just gone live distracting me.
cant see anything in
perth
I always look forward to your Saturday updates, Keep up the good work Marcus!
Look up above…
Just in time like always!!
We try to have it go live pretty much right on the dot. Takes a view mins to find its way into everyones feeds, but we are usually right on the regular publish time.
@@MarcusHouseSo we'll done!
Marcus, I look forward to EVERY update. Your precis of the current space sciences is exemplary. It concisely brings together all relevant players, and your zeal for the subject is obvious.
Thank you very much for the work you (et al) do.
Look up above..
Thanks Marcus and Team...! Testing of Rapid , full reusability of Space Launch vehicles is happening NOW ...! Go SpaceX...! Cheers...!
Another excellent video. My goto for SpaceX, anything Space related, and early warning of possible launch dates. Thanks Marcus
Look up above.
What an incredible video as always. Meant to pause and grab my coffee, but I got sucked in... now it's coffee time! Thanks again!
Always a good way to start the Saturday. The vid comes in the night before but shows up first on my youtube wall in the morning. Thank you Marcus House.
Thanks, Marcus! I always enjoy seeing the new developments each week. We appreciate all the work you, your team, and the others that help provide all these views and information.,
your channel has for long just became part of my life.
Thx for keeping posting.
Wush u greater and greater success.
Look up above
Thank you and the team! Always outstanding. I always start my Saturday with you and love the high quantity and quality of information.
Wild how far spacex evolved from starhopper to IFT4 in less than 5 years ! Soon starbase will be a small city with its own zip code ! ☮️
Look up above
It's great to be able to screensave some of the launches I missed this week, all thanks to Marcus House and Team Marcus. Thank you so much for all your information. I watched the Tim Dodd interview with the Polaris Dawn crew and it was fantastic. A lot of insight about the incredible EVA that is in no way similar to the Dragon EVA suits to the ISS. They have been heavily modified.
So my brains overloaded with new data, time for bed at 12:20am in NZ. It's now the 12th of May. What a funny old world 🌏
Watching these videos is always a great way to start the day, thanks Marcus!
You are very welcome! Thanks for being here.
Awesome Marcus! Great update this week! Thanks so much for all you do.
Thank you
Excellent as always! Thank you for your insights! 👍
The current era is not coming to an end; rather, it marks the dawn of a new era! SpaceX is unwavering in its commitment to progress and innovation.
Great coverage
Awesome...getting emotional about the possibilities in our lifetime

The new space suit doesn't need to withstand the "harsh pressures" of space, the most it will need to stand is 1 atmosphere (about 14.8 psi) but probably much less as it will probably use around 4 or 5 psi with a higher oxygen concentration
New suit will operate at 100% oxygen so around 5 psi. it is the old behaviour designed to make it easier to manage the constant leaking of the suit. Yes, these suits leak continuously.
@@KnugLidi also the lower pressure will make it easier to move
5.1psi but also additional protections in space while still having decent maneuverability. It does require an umbilical to the ship. Not an issue though.
@@anthonypelchatNice to be tethered!
@@anthonypelchatNot an issue but NOT comparable to a free floating EVA or lunar surface suit. Not even close.
A lot of folks seem to not see the difference.
"And it's anudder one outa da pahk," for Marcus House and Team!
i wonder if tower 2 will be taller to accommodate the newer boosters and ships.
Thanks again, Marcus.
Great segment! ❤
Marcus, your information is incredibly thorough and awesome. Thank you.
Always try to catch your stuff on a Saturday night, nice work again mate.
Cheers
Sheers Andy!
Thanks for another excellent summary. Your videos always brighten my day. =)

Really appreciate this channel, Marcus is a great presenter.
Thank you! ❤
Comprehensive as always. Well done Marcus and team.
Thanks

SpaceX Rocks !
Thanks Marcus. Sunday nights would not be the same without the update.
Love your show and content Marcus!
Thank you for another great video!
"Because it's always exciting watching Lunar lander missions playing out." It is indeed. And it's mind boggling to think that we now live in an era where they come one after another. I think there's been five or six in the last year!
now thats a good video update well done
Thank you Dr House.
Loved 🥰 the Australian 🇦🇺 updates.
We rely on you for all our space goodness 🤤🚀🙃
Thanks!
Look up above.
Just in time for this fresh delivery!
You are bang on time! It has been up less than 20 mins.
Thanks for another awesome Saturday release.

Very Cool Dude !
The usual excellent roundup of chunky space goodness. .
Thank you MH +Team for all your hard work

I understand nothing in these videos, yet I still watch them (and enjoy them thoroughly)
Watching the boosters land, never gets old...at least until mechazilla does it's first catch.
Cheers Marcus 🍻
Watching from Australia, great vid, Mr. House!
Bravo! Marcus & Crew
Look up above
it is awesome to see australia now getting into the satellite space race go south australia hope your next rocket is even better
If Starship succeeds, I think building telescopes in space may be cheaper than building them on the ground.
You’re dreaming.
@@executivestepsAren’t we all?
@@brendentodd9360Earth based telescopes are immortal.
We love you Brother! Great stuff as usual. 👍

Great episode, thanks

If anything I would think that ship 26 could be the "orbital Tanker" prototype
A prototype seems right. A step toward a real article. I would expect a tanker to be insulated all over, but who knows.
@MarcusHouse, mess up the aerodynamic? Insulation needs to be inside the ship, just around the tanks.
@@MichaelWinter-ss6lx Insulation needs to be inside the ship, just around the tanks.
The main tanks are in fact the rocket shell. The tank is not "inside" it IS the rocket. So insulation inside would be inside the tank itself.
@@Scanner9631 I always thought there was a separate layer of metal. That’s actually really cool!
@@jonathanmabardy
Look at the tanks they built and are now taking apart. They are essentially Starship sections. To insulate them they built a 12 meter outer shell and put the insulation between the 9 meter tank and the outer shell.
The shuttle tank (and Artemis 1st stage is a variant) also is just the tank with an outer layer of foam insulation. They don't need tiles as they aren't supposed to survive a reentry.
Hobart! Been there twice, thank you US Navy. One of my favorite places! ❤
2:23 It's like R2D2 being fitted with a service tray 😁
I had no idea you were from down here in Hobart. Great job you’re doing.
Thank you Marcus House ❤

Tassie boy represents! 🖐️High Five!
Nice report
Glad you enjoyed it
Always a pleasure My Man.
Look up above.
Wouldn't installing heat tiles on the launch platform, and the quick disconnect arm make for quicker refurbishment and turn around for launches.
Look up above
You do this so well.
Thank you!
Got to finally see a row of starlink satellites yesterday from Steiglitz in Victoria Australia at around 7pm, I was surprised by how fast they moved across the sky
Thank you for not having adverts for injury lawyers like some space CZcamsrs
As a child of the 'sixties, I remember plenty of Cold War spy stories that concerned stolen formulas for one type of top secret rocket fuel or another. So what did the high-tech rocket fuels of the future turn out to be? Kerosene, methane, paraffin... 🤣
Look up above..
Those Stardesk rockets are cool, they should do a Saturn 5 the same scale as Starship.
I was at KSC for F9 656 😊
I can’t believe we don’t have a space station orbiting the moon by now conducting research experiments in advance of lunar habitation.
all in good time :)
So…will Starship 4 fly before Starliner - what are the bookies offering for odds?
IMO, it's 50/50
Bought into Revux with the belief that its success is inevitable. The project's unique offerings and forward-thinking approach set it on a path to excellence.
I smash the LIKE !!!
the more spacex make the cheaper it is getting as well as safer and routine. Always loved space and the unknown
15:48 Would really like to see the vacuum testing they went through for these “Space” suits
Holy smokes , that’s powerful enough , yet the booster is so much more powerful .
It's not easy to have a permanent satellite orbiting the moon, due to its irregular gravity. It's fiddly (=expensive) to maintain the orbit, so not worth doing until there is some sort of permanent base up there. That's why they tend to put up temporary satellites, as required.
Interesting, I never thought about that as much of an issue. Do you know how fast lunar orbits decay? Do they actually decay or are they "just" changed until not useful anymore?
Frozen orbits exist, LRO has been orbiting the moon since 2009 and has used little fuel.
Hey hey Markus house . Ahh a wonderful Saturday morning 😊
Look up above..
A new spin on "Light this candle!" Original: Alan Shepard on top of the Mercury Redstone Rocket, May 5 , 1961.
and the reason why he was so eager to launch always makes us lol
Strange. When I wrote this comment the one similar to it wasn't there.
I think the hot gas thrusters may be refering not to rcs thrusters, as they planed on doing, but the actual lunar lander mini thrusters at the top of the ship.
Hot gas thrusters were specifically mentioned in the context of NASA's progress update regarding in-orbit inter-ship propellant transfer demonstration. My interpretation is that either the Depot or the Tankers (or both) will have dedicated hot gas thrusters for propellant settling and possibly ullage replenishment (on Tanker), that will fire throughout the transfer process.
@@Spherical_Cow Now that you say it, hot gas thrusters are more efficient than what they use right now so it might make sense for a depot. But also if they would be needed for the landing then it makes sense to demo them during the fueling tests in parallel with them to save time.
Hey Hey, it’s time for another video
Holy shit you live in Tassie too! Represent, brother!
Demolition of the vertical fuel tanks hurts my heart just like the demolition of the onion tents.
But I guess you have to move forward !
Look up above.
Didn’t get time to add in S31 sent to Massey also today, and a wheel more or less fell off the spmt 😂
WOW! I knew you were from Australia but Tasmania.
Yup.
