Elon Musk’s SpaceX prepares to launch its third Starship test flight from Texas after receiving the OK from the Federal Aviation Administration.
Last year’s two test flights lasted minutes before blowing up over the Gulf of Mexico. SpaceX plans a shorter, hourlong flight on the latest demo.
NASA needs Starship to succeed in order to help land astronauts on the moon in the next two or so years.

Probably the best footage in history of the plasma barrier created upon re-entry. On space shuttle the only views were through the window. Amazing to see!
I was honestly shocked at how long those cameras kept up. It was stunning
And its the first live onboard of reentry as far as i know!
It didn’t make it through re-entry…It burned up while spinning out of control. An abject failure again!
@@fldiggerI can understand how an ignorant person might see this extremely successful test flight as a failure. I’d try and explain it to you but I seriously doubt you’d understand.
@@fldigger Agreed, this was the most successful Starship failure yet!!!
seeing the starship standing and rotating on the screen with calm music makes my day better
can't believe they did the elevator type low bidding turntable music for starship that sounds like Musk idea.
At what minute mark does that happen?
@@neohamsters wake up and smell the roses! The whole thing is a Musk idea
The music reminded me of music played during "The Love Boat" TV series from the early 1980s.
Lift music 🎵🎶
The heated plasma under Starship is a thing of beauty. Deadly, but beautiful. I imagined how it could look and also seen it in movies but never live.
I think because of movies people don't realise just how an achievement this actually is well done everybody at SpaceX
i had an aneurysm reading the live chat...
people are so ignorant these days.
Sad but true
Happy Birthday SpaceX 🚀🎉❤
Fantastic job by the engineers at SpaceX!
Glad they went with a more traditional stage separation. Pity the first stage wasn't recoverable.
and starship desintegrated in reentry
Did it?
Ha ha…3 total mission losses = a fantastic job!! How many total losses did Saturn 5 (~60 years ago) and Space Shuttle (>40 years ago) have before the first human launches….that’s right ZERO. Starship is a monumental failure…Total loss of booster and starship in all three test flights is not something to be celebrated. It’s been a $3B loss of tax payers money so far and will never make it to the final mission goals. Go look at SmarterEveryDay’s presentation to the combined NASA “experts” where he’ll point out that learning from our predecessors is the most important first-step which has been totally ignored by a corrupt NASA buyer (who now works for SpaceX) and a bunch of group-think MuskTards.
@@fldigger tax payer's money? SpaceX is a private company and privately funded. Which rock do you live under. How many Astronauts died during the Apollo program? How many Astronauts died during the shuttle program? It's better to lose billions and get it right than to lose previous lives. Your ignorance is amazing.
@@fldigger this flight was a success, the booster did exactly what it should during ascent and only failed at the end of the decent. Even if it blew up right after stage separation it would have been a success and just done what every expendable first stage has done.
The ship performed its burn flawlessly and if they were aiming for an orbit and to not test reentry, that launch could have put 200 metric tons in to LEO. They did have control issues at the end meaning they had an unstable reentry but they still would have gotten valuable data from it.
The way that spacex are developing this vehicle is not the same as the SaturnV or Space shuttle were developed. SpaceX aims to push the limits of a not fully fleshed out vehicle in order to get real data about its characteristics. The way the SaturnV and space shuttle were developed is to design something to work right away.
Also, did you forget about what happened to Colombia and Challenger?
who else is watching this not live? -->
Me
Just great to watch. More progress each flight!!!!
The elevator music while waiting for signal acquisition, PERFECT!! 😂😂
There’s something really special about watching a Starship launch live over a Starlink internet connection ❤
Solving specific problems to put together all the research again to complete linkages. Inspiring
Dan, how about redundant hard drives ie RAiD,that exfoliate physically, at given intervals to maintain crucial data at every phase?
Why are the landing / steering? fins at the top of the first / booster stage fully extended prior to the lift-off and ascent portion of the mission?
I should clarify, they can actuate to steer, no need to fold though
The idea is that instead of having heavy hydronic pistons to raise and lower the fins, which could be a point of failure, they instead have them fixed to the body of the craft and pointed in a way to cause minimal drag.
Pushing over 10 million pounds straight up means the drag from them is negligible at best. The best part is no part, so a massive mechanism to bring them into/out of the body would be an awful deal, both in complexity and payload.
@@qwerty112311 Not having the heavy hydraulic components (to extend folded-in fins) also reduce weight. SpaceX has mentioned the drag on the extended fins are negligible during liftoff.

Why doesnt SpaceX do live streams anymore on their channel? Where do you find it?
The reason is X (Twitter)
They stream on twitter now.
Twitter is dead in the water.
@@horatiobeaker Lol, keep telling yourself that. Threads is gonna take over any day now.... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
SpaceX has an official website and video of important launches streams there. Afaik it's a higher resolution than on X.
Ive seen a video on the heat shield tiles, they are pretty incredible.
Like the pitch info being displayed👏
1:01:58 I love the live video feeds. It makes me feel as if I'm right there in the ship. I also like the choice of music, but that's my personal taste. CONGRATULATIONS on a spectacularly successful test!
Cue "Countdown" by Rush
This was the most dramatic, exciting launch I have ever seen. I've been shouting O. M. F. G for 10 minutes.
So that makes you a Blaspheming fool...!!!!!!
ok. what's the hold music at +12:30 onwards?
Hilarious is what it is xD
3 of the songs are:
Sueno Feliz Charlie Steinman
Caribbean Cruise Werner Tautz
Snowing Down South Werner Tautz
thanks you!@@fav1886
Amazing achievement !
This was a success - The real treasure is the data they got back and the fact Starship made it to orbital insertion... WAY COOL SPACEX!
And the fact they got as far as attempting landing (in the ocean) provides invaluable data on how to land correctly
Every test shows the improvements.
Yes everyone gets a ribbon!
@@andrewwilliams9419 - Go SpaceX!
The music @40:25 is sublime...lol!
Great job SpaceX! Can't wait to see where this takes us.
Congratulations in the entire SpaceX team!! Amazing!!!
El cohete propulsor seguramente se destruyó al aterrizar, porque en ese momento su velocidad era de aproximadamente 1,000 km/h
Making progress
not much
@@Awaken2067833758it’s probably too complicated for you to understand. Hence the saying “it’s not rocket science”. Don’t feel bad, it’s a lot for some people.
Congratulations Elon Mask and Starship Team! That a huge success! A halfway to land the Moon!❤❤❤
Looks to me like SpaceX actually launched Starship as opposed to attempting a launch. Maybe to AP it just looks like Starship launched and it's still perched on the launch pad.
Absolutely..........
Just came up to point out that strange headline of "Space X attempts third Starship launch"
Obviously requires some proof reading.
Earth is the cradle of humanity, but one cannot live in a cradle forever.
Excitement delivered; interesting day. Thanks guys.
Crazy that transmission does not break up with all the plasma forming.
Enhorabuena SpaceX!
really amazing work from the design and build teams, sad to see both ships lost, but we'll see a successful finish soon I'm sure :)
Thanks for your love and support…. Where are you from?
What's all the stuff coming off Ship at 45:00?
that would be ice!
And here I thought it was gremlins...
What's the name of the song?
Pretty sure the last moment actually shows vehicle breakup, thats pretty wizard stuff
It is not, we still get telemetry for a bit of time after the camera is cut off
Unfortunate for the Recent Japanese ship failure.
when is the next launch from Vandenburg
How 'fur' did it fly today?
What a ride!
Are they doing an antibormal burnn
So, did the first stage hit ground/sea at supersonic speed? What happened there?
Most probably FTS has been triggered and the booster experienced RUD.
the first stage heard the "we'll try hard landing" words of the reporter and obeyed :D
@@Un0rdin4rYPr0gr4mmeRnope it did crash into the sea
Hit the sea at Mach 1. Not FTS as far as I could tell, given the altitude of 0km.
the poor sucker was falling at 1100 km/h at 1 km above sea level. It basically evaporated on contact with the water :)
Excellent job SpaceX! One step closer to total success!
At this rate it will be a usable space ship by 2060.
@@heathwirt8919And any other company would take 4X longer. You have absolutely no clue. You’re commenting on things you no nothing about.
@@heathwirt8919 And yet Starliner will still be useless by then, with NASA still trying to get SLS to the moon. How's your rocket company coming along?
@@toadsauce8091 Fanboys have to fan.
Congratulations to a job well done
AmaUng
1:00:31 just great the flat earthers are going to ask where's the curve.
Every launch of STARSHIP is an awesome sight, this never gets old !!!
😮 they did it. They put it up there and brought it back. Can't wait for the cool pics.
They did it, crash and burn.
@@heathwirt8919 once again they saved themselves the trouble of clean up.
@@intheshell35ify As was the plan from the start
They didn't bring it back. It fell back, out of control. Things do that from heights.
You will only see the "cool pics" that they want you to see. For example SpaceX cut the video stream that showed the door test had failed.
What a mesmerizing view of the 4th state of matter!
Congratulations to all of you wonderful people at SpaceX. Happy Birthday.
the nerdgasms over the plasma barrier were a thing of beauty to hear
WAY TO GO ELON AND TO ALL OF YOUR CREWS.👍
Attempts? They succeeded and surpassed the goals of the test. Not perfect, but a huge leap forward for a very experimental vehicle.
They did not "succeed and surpass". The door opening failed, and the landings of both the booster and the Starship, which were supposed to be "soft", also failed. Both parts fell out of control, and had run out of fuel needed for a soft landing anyway, despite there being no payload. Some engines failed to relight when they should, probably because the fuel had run out, although there were signs that some burned up.
@lexlayabout5757 that's why they call it a prototype. Failure is expected, next one will be a little better.
@@superzentredi No I would not expect failure. I've been involved with many engineering prototypes and they have been for fine tuning, not for gross failures. Things like that door that didn't work (prob. because of vibration) should have been tested and ironed out on a hired ground based shaker table. But Musk think's he above normal engineering methods, just like the Titan sub guy.
@@lexlayabout5757 teen angst
"We this...we that"..
Your just desk jockeys...
We are witnessing history in the making 🚀
Grid fins = cool
Thank you for trying
How soon we forget.
Space X had three consecutive booster failures when first got into this.
They were down to their last booster and low on funding . Then success.
Since then they have had 316 fully successful launch missions out of 318..that is a 99.4% success rate.
The Atlas D booster rocket which eventually put 6 Mercury astronauts safely in earth orbit had three consecutive total explosive first launches in 1959.
Rocketry is very very technical science.
With the thousands of moving parts that must all function correctly it comes to identifying and correcting those that dont perform within parameters.
Be patient.
Also Starship is a 200T payload reusable lander vehicle. In comparison, all other (non-SpaceX) rockets in the world are expendable (non-reusable) and currently only average/less than 10T payload.
Yessir.
In a very short time frame Space X has surpassed NASA in rocket technology.
Yet people still believe the moon landing🤣
@@drippyjayyy134 Only an idiot wouldn't believe we went to the moon. - you know 400,000 engineers employed by NASA, 800KG of recovered moon rock, laser reflectors we left the surface we still use today, the flyovers and photographs of the landing sites from the Japanese orbiter, the list goes on fool.
@@drippyjayyy134 Drip!
Inspiring
WAIT...How can AP ACTUALLY report an ACTUAL news worthy event ??
Awesome!
close enough decel by2 mach andlost 27km from the reentry corridor
Cant wait for the booster external video to pop up
Congratulations
Let us listen to the fight audio! So sick of the narrations. It just got proven we missed official audio from the blah blah and lame elevator music.. :(
Very cool 😮
Mind Will Be at Ease with Successful Result of expedition.congratulations FRIENDS.
Bro the gimbal💀
Is this real or another movie.
That doesn't look like the starship first 2 boom launches
Lost signal every second, but we are able to see photo and video from Mars over 300000000 miles away
Congratulations to Elon and SPACEX CREW! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Can't get enough of this 👀 😊
Nice work SpaceX!
A great leap to advance toward the next spatial era. Congratulations to Elon Musk and his SpaceX team
Most of the test was failure - soft landings were intended but both parts fell out of control. Door opening, which should have been been simple, didn't work (SpaceX hastily stopped that camera stream) like it was designed by amateurs. Many of the engines failed to re-ignite when they should. It is Musk playing with rockets, basically.
Do the heat shield tiles float? If so, they should start washing up on beaches around the Indian Ocean.
They do float. They've been showing up on eBay. Picked off of beaches.
Growing up in the 80s and 90s I'd never thought outside of NASA flights. The question in the back of my mind is how the DOD is involved?
They're not, yet at least, just some Falcon launches so far
Was Elon on site?
SpaceX with Great Class!!!!!!🙂
At least Space-X keep their employees "super thrilled and excited"...
Hidden Figures designed to judge observation and ability to identify hidden figures for alternative solutions from formulations to implementations measuring capacity building to facts after a causal and rational study. Inspiring
So. Fricking. Awesome!
cool
My theory on the reentry fail is that Starship is like a steel balloon: the bigger the ship, the more like a balloon it is. The ship exhausted all it's fuel while in vacuum....my guess is that all that vacuum immersed in the atmosphere helped to crush the works inwards while the reentry pressures did most of the work. Just me talking.
That's not what happened. The ship came in at a bad angle that didn't dissipate the heat properly and likely lost many heat tiles before entering as well. SpaceX is well aware of the pressures inside the ship.
Love the Musac.
Starship, you are now clear for nocturnal e-m-m-I-s-s-i-o-n.
So, this latest failure shows more to fix, if you were around back to the Mercury launches, they rolled up quite a total of failures. They only had one flight with no problems before sending the first astronaut into space on it.
Here's your splash zone!
Best music ever
Looks like a number of tiles fell off as it began reentry of the vehicle. Maybe that was the cause for the loss of Starship.😮
This is all great stuff but working with all these volatile fuels is just not going to get us far, it’s way too dangerous, takes an enormous amount of weight, we have get to the next level of propulsion
Can't wait for ift4!
It's crazy to me, they still use a 1970s tech on reentry.
We still use hammers and there 1000s of years old
@@TheKianykin Maybe they should Hammer them shields on seeing how many were missing
let's GO !!!!!
SpaceX is inspirational in the way iterate so quickly. NASA bureaucracy and endless timelines should take notice.
You do realize that spaceX is at least two years behind schedule and has spent more money to this point than was budgeted for the entire completed project.
Imagine NASA launching a couple of RUDs on this scale.. Would they see any more funding from Congress? NASA pays for most of this anyway and they also shared all their know-how freely with SpaceX.
You can tell who doesn't work in aerospace by the audacity of their comments
@@stupidas9466 You do realize NASA spends $2.5 billion on each SLS launch, of which there has been only one so far. NASA spends more taxpayer per engine on SLS than it would cost to build and fly a new Falcon Heavy. Also, NASA has been developing SLS since the 2000's.
@@_pehash Well, NASA doesn't really launch at all, do they? They've launched SLS once and it cost $2.5 billion.
Two commenter's voice is quit beautiful.
What an amazing project to be a part of.
Perfect 🌹❤️🚀🚀
