  • SpaceX has confirmed this Friday as the potential target for the second flight test of Starship, with Elon Musk also indicating that a license should be granted in time for this target date. FWS also finished the Biological investigation into the deluge system. With that, all indicators point to a launch on Friday.
    Our new update show, "Countdown to Launch," will update you regularly on Starship flight 2. The goal is to answer all your questions about the upcoming launch campaign.

    I’m no expert at broadcasting but these three young gentlemen are doing a much better job communicating than previous people in their shoes. All goes out the window though when they don’t stick to some kind of plan and the parameters as agreed to prior to launch. Right now, they are doing wonderfully.

    • @RoySATX
      @RoySATX Před 7 měsíci +2

      I wouldn't have commented except for the fact this was the top comment. I'm no expert in broadcasting either but I disagree. In particular Alex Rivera, not sure on the name because they don't communicate it well by having them on screen or in the description. He speaks as though he is in junior high. His sentences are a jumble of fillers and empty phrases such as "It's okay dude", "like out of bounds and everything", "basically right and so", "but, um", all of which makes him very hard to understand or take seriously. Note that I am not talking about his accent, although combined with all the filler phrases it doesn't help. Being an expert in some area doesn't guarantee the ability to communicate that knowledge well and as a host I would think communication skills are paramount. He might just be nervous, experience will help with that. Otherwise he should consider some lessons on effective communication. I am not expecting a Toastmaster, just less filler and nonsense.

    Other than minor anomalies I expect near full success for BFR/BFS.

    • @ridingvenus
      @ridingvenus Před 7 měsíci

      Part of why is Falcon and previous tests before Falcon and the multiple successful & not so flights of BFS.
      It looks close to a adequate improvement of stage 0 in previous 0 tests also.
      I don’t recall much problems with any test &/or flights of any Sx unit that wasn’t easily fixed.
      Seems no one has pointed fact that the anomaly fires…explosions etc & etc didn’t eliminate the stage separating in the last flight.
      For stage one only real improvements needed vs last flight is to not have engines and components fire and or explode and to achieve stage separation…BFS has proven many times it can light several engines successfully so I really dont see much more needed from any stage.
      Although all should be beefed up and optimized after a Falcon 9 ish successful non rud starts occurring.
      Supposedly Elon didn’t expect the maden Falcon Heavy to even do what most expect of this flight…looks like this flight will be underexpected results expected and way over expected occurrence probable.
      Yea Falcon is a different vehicle but so was the prototypes pre Falcon….which is nearly comparable to hopper and early BFS tests…well minus Sn11 that was just a mission that should not of happen as and when it did.

    It seems like belly landing Starship in the ocean would be a wasted opportunity to test the flip landing. Especially since the Starship will need to flip vertical regardless whether SpaceX decides to catch or land the Ships. More data is always better.
    I hope SpaceX eventually figures out proper landing legs for Starships. Go ahead and catch boosters but a I think real Starships should have landing legs.
    It would really suck if SN15 remains the only Starship to land on earth. I'm still angry they scrapped SN15

    • @HotchkissJoe

      They also need to ensure that the remains in the ocean are thoroughly destroyed. Which wont be the case with a soft landing.

      @KraziIvan Před 7 měsíci +2

      ​@robyn051 logistics wouldn't be difficult seeing how this was the plan for a long time. Lease a self loafing ship, keep out of landing area, starship goes for simulated landing... big empty tanks so it floats. Send in the ship and pluck it out of the water. In our scheme of things is big... space X not so big. Plus you just go for as many things to test in a launch to reduce future ones. 😀

      Every single launch needs a license. There are various reasons for this, one is that the airspace and risky sea areas need to be cleared, so the launch window needs to be known in advance so people can plan around it. Another is that by international treaty, the hosting country is responsible for any damages (and it is then up to that country to recoup those costs from the launching company), so Uncle Sam isn't going to let you launch a big rocket unless they think it's reasonably safe. Of course when you're launching something that has been flying for years without problems, that's usually just a matter of the right person putting down a signature so for say a Falcon 9 it's no big deal, but in case of a brand new rocket it's a little more involved.
