Today we have loads of Incredible New SpaceX Starship Flight 4 Info, and Great News from the FAA! Outside of that though, it has been a gigantic week of action packed with terrific scenes and new surprises. Axiom Space’s next-generation Extravehicular Mobility Unit or EMU. Loads of Starlink action again this week. The network is growing at an astonishing rate with the service now available in 100 countries! It was action again for Virgin Galactic’s VSS Unity, but also, for the last time. Just this week Stoke space announced that they successfully completed their first hot fire test of a stage one engine of their Nova rocket.

Cheers Marcus - what a time to be alive!
Bring this thing to Germany. I want to have a look at it.
Man can you imagine how happy the tank and gas suppliers have been with spacex? So much change of hardware and so many tons of gasses
Not so, Elon Musk has also a company which produce methane, thus it's a bit in closed circuit at SpaceX
@@patlab555 Not yet. That's the future plan, far future. For now they relying on Air Liquide to supply the LOX, and for the methane, Starbase are supplied by at least five gas wells around the gulf.
Always good to get your updates, Marcus. No BS, no clickbait, just the facts. Good work!
I could do with a little less talk about the freaking tank farm, but yeah.
@@riparianlife97701🤣🤣
My first order of business on Saturday mornings is always the latest Marcus House video. There's just no better way to start the day! IFT-5, here we come!
wake up, get coffee started, get breakfast going, throw on marcus house. its a Saturday lol
same same ☕ cheers! :)
Word!
Same here
If you watch synced video of the OLM and chopsticks during the boosters set down in the water... they moved the chopsticks and activated the water again to virtually simulate the towers actions while the booster was doin its thing in the water. So we know the water deluge was not damaged because it was turned back on during the boosters soft water landing and the chopstick that moves faster closed so I think they got some good virtual catch data as well.
Is there a video on that? Side by side? The booster didn’t seem to hover too long. Man, I wish spacex would show the footage from the buoy all the way till tip over!
@daveyshmavey maybe Scott Manley? I recall a side by side of the two but all my attention was on the super heavy hovering, so I did not notice.
Yes. The ship and tower truly simulated a landing.
@@daveyshmavey WAI, What About It, has a section in their video on it in the IFT4 recap
@@stevencatone I must have not noticed, I’ll look again! Thanks!
I've just finished printing that Starship, and found a really neat technique. Spray the silver bits with normal silver paint, then rub it down with fine (5nm) graphite powder and it suddenly turns into shiny metal. It look just like the real thing. I got the graphite powder cheap from temu, so I'll likely die of cancer soon, but I'll die with an awesome model of starship and super-heavy.
Hahaha I like your attitude 😂
Don’t give your money to temu. It’s owned by the CCP
Geeks
Sacrifices must be made for man's destiny in space.
I think we can agree, that flap was the star of the whole event, and on 2nd place the booster coming down, right where it supposed to. Still get chills from IFT4.
"tiles twice as strong" - what does that mean? able to stand twice the heat? able to last twice as long with same heat? twice as strong physically, less likely to crack? its a bit of a "50% more goodness" claim .....
I wish we knew. Are they thicker? Different material? What? Trying to get more info on that. Should see new tiles arriving soon so we'll at least be able to see how they differ.
They can bench press twice as much weight as the old ones.
From what i understand they are thinner but can withstand twice the heat
@@davefarmery8180 I think it may be more likely to be 50% stronger bonding to the new ablative material being placed under them as a secondary heat defence in case of loss of a tile.
@@BTAxistube those tiles curl your benchpress
One small relight for a booster, one giant leap for humanity
Great words, agreed!
Were it not for the flaps being damaged it would have been a complete success. I do womder: there were purposeful missing tiles. Were those contributors to that failure? Will we ever know?
Glad you didnt say mankind
@@furriesinouterspaceUnitedOr peoplekind
@@ThatOpalGuy No, those missing tiles were on the belly, toward the tail end. They were nowhere near any of the flaps, much less the one that we got all the dramatic footage of.
I'm still blown away by the flight 4 also! I'm still waiting eagerly for the SpaceX Flight 4 Recap video. The last ones were pretty epic with the music and everything. This one has to be the best one, hoping to see it pop up this week.
The pace is insane!
Agreed. At age 59 I was sure that I would die before a Mars attempt was even made. Now, I'm hopeful that it could happen while I'm alive. If I can live another 20 years or so
@@shado9300Stay with us for as long as possible bud because you are living in the most amazing time for our species in all of history! We will be interplanetary within your lifetime!
@@shado9300 it will
Stoke is no joke. It is amazing they can control the second stage with all those aerospike exhausts. Running the big first stage engine so soon means they are making extraordinary progress towards a fully reusable launch system. The race is on to see if they start flying customer payloads ahead of starship. No one would have believed they would be this close even a few months ago. Go Stoke! You have fans rooting for you!
SpaceX doesn't use aerospike engines.
@@ghost307 no one said they do, they were saying stoke does, and then they were curious to if they could beat starship to flying customer missions
@@etherealswordsman3214 "It is amazing they can control the second stage with all those aerospike exhausts".
@@ghost307 that is referring to Stoke, not starship
@@etherealswordsman3214 Got it. I'll be suitability impressed when they get it through a complete test mission.
As always, great video! And I’m glad to be part of it ! Thanks a lot Marcus !
I love how transparent SpaceX has been throughout the years they've been developing space vehicles.
Blue origin is pretty cloak and dagger. How’d they get that space force contract with a new Glenn that hasn’t flown?
@@craigmackay4909perhaps they make lot of rocket launch simulations with amazon cloud
@craigmackay4909 Who knows, they make little to no progress compared to SpaceX which is sad.
@@craigmackay4909 Good ol boy club in DC.
As with a lot of technology, the first workable version is always the hardest. Once proven, then others can often do the same much more quickly. Nice going Stokes! I am surprised though that reusable rockets haven't appeared more quickly after SpaceX did it. But soon we will have more.
Stoke Space (not "Stokes") is definitely a company to watch. I like their heat shield design.
the main reason it took so long is that a lot of businesses didn't invest in the idea of reusability until it was prove. Once it was they then had to hurry to invest into new programs to catch up. As it is rocket science, this took years of development just to get the groundworks moving. We should be seeing a lot more reusable rockets very soon.
Let's say a reusable rocket is twice as expensive as a single use rocket. And has a life of twenty flights.
If we then amortise the cost of the reusable rocket over the number of flights it makes. It works out as being ten times cheaper than a disposable rocket. Or ten times less profit for its manufacturer.
That is why until SpaceX reusable rocket technology has not been developed.
@@cheeseninja1115 Yes, many thought it could not be done, but I think the reality is that there were so few players in this space many thought it wasn’t worth the R & D. Figuring this out the using old non-agile methods would have been much slower and expensive.
@@racookster Thanks for the correction.
These videos are how I keep up with the industry (I’m not in the industry at all but just a big space enthusiast). Thanks
Hey hey hey marcus, one step closer to mars
2 Heys
@@peterh1282hey am only returning my hey..
Really hope Stoke Space succeeds to become commercially viable. Love their plan and progress
It was so awesome watching this launch live, I remember the awe schucks feeling when the flap was very quickly melting away and then it seemed like it would never survive the sustained heat as it seemed like re entry went on for ever, then seeing that thing swing over on the landing flip it turned into the hero of the entire flight.
I still doubt they'll ever get to the point that Starship launches will be as easy and regular as flying a plane, but the higher they aim the further they're gonna go. Right now it seems getting the launch table to the point it doesn't need weeks of work to get back in working order is gonna be the big challenge
But when they achieve that, it will have a big impact on their launch schedules.
@@georgeacton9106 Absolutely
I suspect the new launch towers will incorporate a lot of changes and upgrades to remove weak points in the current tower design. Remember no one had ever done anything like this before so the engineers involved are learning a lot as they go along.
I think they’ll get close, relatively speaking. Something like a few weeks turnaround on booster/ship. But since the goal is to fly these things to Mars and back with a launch window that really only opens every two years I think they’ll be more than fine.
For anyone who wants to know...
Boiler hrspr is calculated by energy required to evaporate water (35.4 lb at 212F).
Mechanical hrspr is calculated based on torque and rpm.
Rocking hrspr is based on the calories you burn while having a good time.
Excellent work Marcus. You are my favourite of the Starship commentators.
great update marcus. love these
The FAA is more confident in Starship's durability compared to a Boeing 737 MAX.
The old Boeing B-52 could land with 90% of its tail fin broken off. The 737 MAX used no redundancy in a critical flight control sensor and leaves the factory without important bolts.
The Starship can land with one of its control fins exposed to reentry plasma.
Stoke are Amazing. Thanks Marcus for that Great Cover
Hey there, MH. Hopefully, you had a good week ❤
why didnt they recover the booster and ship from the sea to do physical inspection to help flight 5?
Probably too expensive.. they put sensors where they needed too and have loads of video.. they have good data I'm sure.
I love my 'Saturday Mornings with Marcus'. A cup of coffee and space-y goodness. Thanks for keeping us in the loop!
Good day Marcus! Exceptional update this week! Great work!
I'm really disappointed that we didn't get to see the full booster landing from the buoy camera. I wanted to see it land in the water and fall over. That would have been cool.
Always look forward to your videos! Thanks.
Always fantastic, Thank you.
Good morning Marcus!
So great! Love these video updates!
TBH they really should move the tank farm farther away or at the very least pour a large concrete blast shield wall that separates the farm from the tower
Stoke Space is really a cool company!
I want their hat!
Would you say you're stoked for Stoke?
@@odysseusrex5908 hahaha definitely
Just wanted to say thanks for these videos and the work that you do, always look forward to these videos!
Thanks for the weekly space update 🎉❤️
im so pumped for a chopstick landing whether they do it on the next flight or not it's Gunna be the most amazing thing ever
Tbh, I don’t think they’ll try it on IFT-5. Not until the second tower is built, so they can continue operations if the catch goes tits-up.
@@golftourist7626 yeah im not getting my hopes up i think its elon being elon saying it in the interview i think he was pressured into saying it
@@golftourist7626 Hmm, but Elon had said in an X live streaming that the booster will suicide over the Gulf should it decide it won't be able to do a proper landing on the tower. This makes me think if the booster is all okay for the landing just in case, whether the catch attempt will be taken.
@@srinivasr.9976 I’m just thinking from a practicality perspective. If they try it with IFT-5 and it doesn’t go right and messes up the tower then they won’t be able to launch again until the tower is rebuilt or the new one is good to go. SpaceX needs to launch to test and it makes more sense to wait until there are two towers ready.
I'll eat my shoes if that happens. total BS.
HELLLLLLL YEAHH SPACE !!!!
YEAHH SCIENCE!
@@squirrelsinjacket1804YEAH MAGNETS!!! (maybe?)
Another fact packed video. .
Excellent stuff. .
Thank you MH + Team for a quality upload
The stainless exhaust headers on my bike
glow red in the dark. The metal has tarnished a dull grey colour but it’s perfectly sound.
Full flow ... from "impossible" to "difficult" to the standard run of the mill technology, soon. Compare to automotive fuel injection, which went from impossible, to exotic racing engibes, to your local Toyota Corolla. 😊
Soon enough, high school students will be 3D printing full flow staged combustion engines in shop class.
Uhm, no. Only one FFSC design has flown, and it’s got 1000x more test data and iterations than the next in line - yet is STILL experiencing failures on a fairly regular basis (compared to something like the RS-25s reliability.)
Lighting it for a short duration burn is one thing, getting it reliable (and apparently, far more simple and compact) is a totally different story.
It’s still extremely exotic and difficult to master, they’ve got a long road ahead of them - I just hope their funding sources understand that it’s going to be a marathon and not a sprint.
yeah, pretty amazing to witness this in real time and being aware of it. Not a lot of folk register thing like this.. (exponential adaption curves)
@EstorilEm Sure. But there was a time when you could get a PhD in carburetor science. Progress occurs, the difficult problems get solved, the black arts that cross the gap between theory and practice get learned. In the 1960s the rocket engines of that day, largely derived from ICBM engines, barely worked for long enough to get to orbit. But materials science, control systems, digital electronics, computing science, and lots of empirical experience have changed the game. And will continue to change.
It’s incredible how much more complicated Stoke’s full-flow staged-combustion engine is compared to the Raptor. Must have 10x as many components. 😳
I realize they’ve got a lot of sensor and test stand equipment on it, but just the piping alone is crazy.
The funny thing is that, it’s kinda what I’d expect for that type of engine. Every time I see the new raptors, I feel like they’re missing half the piping / components. I just can’t comprehend how such an advanced engine works with so little plumbing and electrical. Apparently Stoke’s engineers can’t either. 😂
iirc the raptor engines look an awful lot like that too at first, before refining the design. Kinda excited to see Stoke go through that same process in the future.
Stokes engine is a very early prototype, the final engine will look nothing like this and a refined final engine will be even less complicated. Look at the original Raptor compared with V3, they look like totally different engines. SpaceX's mantra is simplicity and that drives their design decisions. Others may not have this goal and full flow engines are incredibly complex to start and control so Stoke's engine may never get as refined looking as Raptor.
Thank you, Marcus, another good update
always a pleasure to watch your videos!
A catch of the booster is apparently not covered by the present FAA license (Angry Astronaut asked the FAA about it). So, no mishap report required, but a modified license!
They'd need a modified licence regardless. The licence has always been for one specific flight and gets modified each time for the next. I've never heard anyone mention that, but it's right there in the licence document.
@@MrHPlays - nope, that topic was subject to change a couple of days before IFT4. The present licence is unlimited, as long as no mishap occurs and the flight profile remains the same. Therefore, without catching the booster, there would be no specific FAA license needed for IFT5.
@@helgekumpfert4011 I don't know where you got that from. The licence document on the faa commercial space data page for Starship still limited space x to a single launch the last time I looked at it after it was updated for ift4. I'd double check it's not been charged since then, but their page has an internal server error right now unfortunately.
The relevant clause 4.b.ii (authorisation-flights) in the current licence was that spacex is licenced to conduct flights "Using a Ship 29-Booster 11 Starship-Super Heavy vehicle configuration, unless this license is modified to remove this term."
The tower might could be triangular. This could save material, provide a wider angle for the chopsticks to rotate. But maybe the advantages aren't truly there.
My first thought is that it would be less fault tolerant. Damage to a single upright could result in the whole tower being compromised.
@ghost307 True, though engineering can solve that. The biggest challenge I think would be the forces around that huge winch and cable system that depends on the oilfield winch located on the ground behind the tower. A triangular, or even diamond shaped tower might not be worth the extra effort.
1 more pillar prob gives more strength, it was probably the best design overall, if not they would have choosen it already
thanks Marcus, insightful content
Finally someone taking the piss out of those ridiculous units of measurement! Well done!
They gotta fully redesign Stage Zero, you cant keep adding shielding and refurbishing so much if you want rapid reuse
Would raising the height of stage zere have any effect
The deluge system needs to be higher to protect infrastructure or the infrastructure needs to be able to move further to get the fuck out of the way more!
Don't forget that one of reasons that SpaceX is hurrying so much with second launchsite is that they can modify one tower while second is operational.
Tell that to NASA genius.
Mobile launch platform one was chewed up way more by Artemis 1 than NASA thought it would be, but I don't see you calling for a redesign on NASA's shit do I?
Iterative design in action.
16th landing, bairly a footnote. And yet no other company is even close to landing once, yet.
The people that do those animations are so awesome. Great vid.
So much going on come on number 5 great video keep them coming 😊
I really hope it is made crystal clear ahead of time that the new tile system is not there to solve the melting fins, and that it most likely will not have any effect there. Those solutions are coming later. Goodness knows the small cult of naysayers are desperate to rebound from having their week ruined by IFT4, and if they can get away with pretending that the new tiles were supposed to fix everything, that will count as a win in their book.
They're already crowing about "duh ablative tiles aren't rapidly reusable!". Don't expect much from them.
They'll never be made happy. They hate the person, not the concept.
Edit: you can see that in how they react to non-SpaceX news where Musk's the owner/involved.
The entire far left tech bros which imo is a majority on CZcams only reports on spacex and Tesla when they have something negative to stay with elons name added as well. Linus tech tips is a great example.
Naysayers? Or do you mean people with healthy scepticism?
@@TheDisgruntledImperialthey probably hate the concept too, because they refuse to understand the genius thinking behind it. Lots of people reject revolutionary ideas, because they can't understand it.
Look at how many people laughed at SpaceX for talking about landing Falcon 9 for the time, saying it can't happen. And I'm sure for the first year of attempting, all the naysayers said, "see told you they can't do it"
I feel like the tower needs a redesign for true reusability
Don't worry. Early catch attempts almost guaranty that redesign.
🚀🏴☠️🎸
@MichaelWinter-ss6l i know what you mean, but you're not wrong. And I mean less about failed catch, but as test that will show weak points of current design. Probably this is one of reasons why SpaceX wanna conduct catch attempt BEFORE second tower is erected, as it would allow to address modifications more quickly. And on the other side if there will be damage to tower/arms, parts for replacement just sitting there.
I feel like an other tower exclusively for catching would make sense. They don’t need to be able to take off twice a day yet. Just wheel the booster from one to the other (when they actually can fly more than once).
Edit: just realized that’s the plan at least at cape Canaveral
With SpaceX they are constantly reworking everything. The changes in the launch towers number in the hundreds of things between every launch. The difference in damage from flight one to flight four is many times less than each flight. This tower is being redesigned everytime it's used.
I’m making an underground with a flame trench, coming out the side back of it or something I think would work better
What a fantastic episode. Thank you, Marcus.
Thank you Marcus....much information
What would happen if Starship flight 5 , misses the chopsticks and lands on the oxygen farm?
Kaboom

I bought one of those ekster wallets advertised on this channel. Money deducted. Order then cancelled.. But not refund still after a week. Be careful buying stuff off this site
Yikes! That's a cautionary tale. Coffeezilla incoming!
Do a charge back. Fuck scammers
Use caution on any site really.
Another great update Marcus 👍
They have to fix the gaps in the hinges - simply replacing the white fabric with an ablative spraycoat is way way way too temporary.
FIRST! AT LAST!

Excellent stuff bro
Great video, Marcus! Thank you for the detailed update on SpaceX's tests. You have helped me better understand the advances and challenges SpaceX is facing. Keep up the great work!
always amazing content
Starship the future of space flight 🚀
In a few years it'll be as reliable as falcon is currently. It's already obsoleted the SLS by Nasa.
Another fine job Marcus, Like I keep saying. Keep up this glorious work and reporting! 😎
Thanks Marcus.
that tony dude does just absolutely stellar work.
NEW MARCUS HOUSE DROPPED! What an exciting month.
Not gunna lie the ocean is an amazing deflector for all that energy that the booster is generating. Having it fire straight into the water would be perfect minus the salt.
Thanks!
Horse power was derived from England as one horse was required to pull one barge down a canal. Two connected barges needed 2 horses, etc.
Can’t wait to the next launch!
