Two minor corrections: 3:14 - Only the secondary payload was lost on that mission. The primary payload made it to the ISS successfully. 6:20 - The Merlin engine is named after the a type of falcon (Falco columbarius), which itself derives from Old French and is unrelated to the name of the legendary wizard.
Yep! All of SpaceX's booster engines are named after birds. Kestrel, Merlin, and Raptor. The only SpaceX engines that aren't are the Draco and SuperDraco hypergolic engines.
Sigh, where do you think Merlins French name came from? Merlin is not his original name, his original name was Brythonic/Welsh - Merlin is the French version of the name. Courtesy of a bloke called Cretien du Troyes ?sp..
I was there for the inaugural launch in 2018. It was absolutely amazing being part of that crowd. I had no idea the Roadster was being launched which made it even more special.

Think you mean a larger version of falcon heavy. But just imagine over 45 MILLION pounds of thrust I don’t event want to know the capacity of that rocket. If space x fixes the launch pad breaking/ flame tunnel and the water suppression system I don’t even think that will be enough with 111 raptor engines roaring
Starship is much more complicated, imagining the stress management alone is giving me a headache. Not to mention the aerodynamics and designing a proper launchpad to handle that ungodly amount of thrust, and designing all that for reusability 😢. . . . Would be cool af tho.

This episode has aged mostly well (in 2024). Love the presentation and detail quality. One issue, though, that others have already noted: While Starship will be unrivaled in getting really big heavy stuff into LEO, Falcon Heavy can send still big stuff--within one launch--well beyond LEO. Great for interplanetary probes. We will be seeing Falcon Heavy launches for years to come.
I can’t wait to see a falcon, super heavy heavy. You strap three falcon, nine rocket together to get a falcon heavy Used app, three superheavy booster is to get a super heavy heavy booster 33. Raptor two engines by three. Let’s go !!!
I love this video - great job! One thing, we keep saying we could have saved money and could have done missions already if we had not produced Artemis. But then what if Falcon Heavy had been a failure? No one could have predicted that - so now we have Falcon Heavy and Artemis. Very smart way to go...

6:34 - The Rolls Royce Merlin was also the final missing piece that made the P-51 Mustang arguably the finest pursuit fighter of WWII. NOTHING on Earth sounds like that magnificent 27 liter V-12 screaming past at 150 ‘ off the deck at 400+ mph.
Rumor has it they were initially going to call Starship the Falcon Ultimate... except Elon wasn't allowed to have the letters FU painted on the rocket 🤣🤣🤣

Falcon Heavy definitely made me a rocket nerd. That and watching every Tim Dodd and Scott Manley video during the pandemic. Now I'm laser focused on Starship. Starship is starting to look like it will deliver on most of what was promised. RAPID reusability of the ship may not be possible. They're not flying two hours after landing anytime soon. Even if refurbishment of the second stage takes a week or two, Starship will still change the world in ways we haven't even thought of yet.
Great video as always. Please look up the difference between the words drastically and dramatically. One word has negative connotations, the other is a positive word. I think you'll understand where you need to make that change. "The launch cadence is about to increase "dramatically"".

A horizontal lift ship is what is needed for the next stage of space travel. A platform that can deliver a ship from Denver to the upper atmosphere on a regular and weekly or even daily schedule. Horizontal take off and landing until man learns how to turn off gravity.
The Delta IV Heavy is (was?) pretty spectacular to watch, too - something about its color scheme - or lack of color? - when it shakes off. It must be the Falcon’s and Delta IV’s ‘shoulders’ that excites my eyes so much - they both look so gosh darn powerful with their booster rockets attached. It’s still so crazy to me, especially after watching Cold War documentaries of The Space Race, that SpaceX has made spaceflight seem so routine to us laypeople like myself. I’m not sure what’s more amazing - their launches or the fact SpaceX has accumulated so much talent to make it all happen. I guess NASA fulfilled their goal of helping turn space flight into a commercially viable technology. SpaceX really ran with the ball - the other ‘legacy’ companies accomplished so much as well, but SpaceX sure did execute on Musk’s vision. And of course, RocketLab has done its part to make commercial space flight possible…and others. Neat stuff, a great time to be alive and watch. These rocket folk should be very proud they’re making history.
We may find that the falcon heavy will still be needed when there is no heavier loads going to space or there are time constraints for a particular load.

The way things are going (or not) with Starship, I suspect the FH has a much longer life than Musk expected. It does, after all, have the huge advantage that it works, and it doesn't destroy its launch pad. It's also human-rated, which the Starship never will be.
Some people lack vision and can only see the negative results of the first launch of starship as a sign of what the future holds. Go back and look at the history rocket development and you'll find numerous rockets that blew up on the launch pad including the Falcon 9 in 2016 as noted on this video. Falcon 9 went on to become the most reliable rocket flying today.
With all the old bridges and ocean drilling rigs in need of replacement, seems like a floating island/factory would be a cheap workable prototype to launch, land, and refurbish at sea.
It’s a cool thought, something scifi/futuristic about it. But SpaceX bought two, thought about trying to make it work, then sold them off as scrap. Still…
I was born 6 days before Neil Armstrong landed on the moon , I watched the challenger blow up in high school. Now? I am blown away by SpaceX . I’ve always been a space cadet 🤣. GO ELON✊😎.
Hey, the North American P-51 Mustang and P-82 Twin Mustang all used the Rolls-Royce Merlin V-1650 engines as well. Albeit they were built under license for Rolls-Royce by Packard Motor Car Co, these engines barked just as hard as the ones built over the pond. The P-82 Twin Mustang was North Americans answer to Kelly Johnsons P-38 Lightning as a long range Escort Fighter for the Heavy Bombers. At 11:04 you've stated the 2nd launch of FH had a successful landing of the Center Core on a Drone Ship, I'm STILL looking for that video ? ? As far as I know, there have been no successful Center Core recoveries, prove me wrong, I'd Luv to see the vid. All that said, Thx for the Falcon Heavy summation, learnt a few things here.
@@taiwanjohnyou mean "aware if the meaning of both"? I find affixing the suffix "s" to words already conjugated with the suffix "ing" is pure mouth-breather mentak retardation due to misding sense of syntax. Would you also type "bikings" ie. "The bikings I go on are all offroad" of would you have done sense in realizing the "s" is your rendering a degenerate double conjugation? What next, rapings, killings, joustings, castings, blastings, fistings, stingings, ringings, drawings, workings, lashings, snatchings?... What other phonetically retarded misuse of the suffix "s" will you mouth-breathers make next?
Before people start to go off to mars. Since people will risk their lives for 7 months or 45 days on the journey towards mars the shuttle should be tested for 7 months or 45 days near earth around the orbit and then land back down to earth to see what would go wrong if this was the real journey. I know there are more talented people then me yet I'm just saying because it just came to my mind like that that's why. I'm a space lover too, my passion is astrophotography and starts planets black holes, white holes pulsars nabulae clusters superclusters giants super giants laniakea and many more. I read a lot of things too about astronomy. I knew about jwst when I was very young but at that time jwst was on earth being builtI wanted to be an Astronomer but due to some issues I was unable to become what I wanted. Anyways it's a great video.
Great video and summary of FH. I think Starship will be much more difficult and take far longer to become operational than expected. If FH was human rated it could carryout the Moon missions. In expendable form it can carry enough payload for us to regularise transfers to the Moon much cheaper than Artemis, using the Dynetics lander.

I really look forward to how things will progress over my lifetime. Even if it takes another 10 years to have the ability to more easily transfer to the moon, then within my lifetime ill see some incredible things happen, possibly space mining colonies towards the end of my life
I agree, just updating a few points with Starship tech could be phenomenal for missions that don't need as much payload as a full starship. Same goes for the Falcon 9

the side boosters need to move upwards and connected just below the top of the structure, connected with 90 degree bends to the main structure - the tradition of using thrust to push is the problem - balancing a pencil needs not to be from below - apply thrust to pull. do you carry a briefcase by the base , balancing it on your hand, or by the handle?
Vertically pumped out proud is man made cloud - only produced by the masterpiece and the proud - the one and only crowd - that man can make all the crowd so proud - is only vertically made man made cloud - pumped out made proud.
I think the idea that Starship will ever be cleared by NASA to launch astronauts from the surface of the Earth is never going to happen. Who wants the crew to launch INSIDE THE SECOND STAGE OF THE ROCKET with the fuel tanks, with no launch escape system? Been there. Didn't turn out too well every 1 in 200 chances. So a case could be made to keep Falcon Heavy in service and retire the SLS instead once Starship is fully operational and relatively reliable, and use FH to launch Orion capsules from Earth to rendezvous with Starship in Earth orbit.
I think I enjoy Falcon Heavy launches more than any other. It is a majestic spacecraft and the booster landings still look like science fiction.
Starship is its successor, so all's well.
The brute force of and very expensive Saturn V Moon launches hasn't been topped yet.
YET!!!

Falcon uses Jet fuel. Starship uses methane. Much cleaner and cheaper.

Some people lack vision and can only see the negative results of the first launch of starship as a sign of what the future holds. Go back and look at the history rocket development and you'll find numerous rockets that blew up on the launch pad including the Falcon 9 in 2016 as noted on this video. Falcon 9 went on to become the most reliable rocket flying today.
Leaving this here so I can come harass you when it is human rated within the next decade.
@@Jake1702 within the next DECADE? Nothing like playing it safe...
With all the old bridges and ocean drilling rigs in need of replacement, seems like a floating island/factory would be a cheap workable prototype to launch, land, and refurbish at sea.
It’s a cool thought, something scifi/futuristic about it.
But SpaceX bought two, thought about trying to make it work, then sold them off as scrap. Still…

0:12 yeah but at the time of it's first launch it was the most powerful OPERATIVE rocket, at least until the SLS launch
I was born 6 days before Neil Armstrong landed on the moon , I watched the challenger blow up in high school. Now? I am blown away by SpaceX . I’ve always been a space cadet 🤣. GO ELON✊😎.
67 year old here (age 12 at Armstrong step-leap)... and I am likewise a proud space cadet at heart.
Hey, the North American P-51 Mustang and P-82 Twin Mustang all used the Rolls-Royce Merlin V-1650 engines as well. Albeit they were built under license for Rolls-Royce by Packard Motor Car Co, these engines barked just as hard as the ones built over the pond. The P-82 Twin Mustang was North Americans answer to Kelly Johnsons P-38 Lightning as a long range Escort Fighter for the Heavy Bombers.
At 11:04 you've stated the 2nd launch of FH had a successful landing of the Center Core on a Drone Ship, I'm STILL looking for that video ? ? As far as I know, there have been no successful Center Core recoveries, prove me wrong, I'd Luv to see the vid. All that said, Thx for the Falcon Heavy summation, learnt a few things here.
Dreams are nice, reality is a different story.
Mandela effect:
Does anyone else remember that the center booster failed to land on both the 1st and 2nd flights?
Not just the 1st?
Just you
Stoned and forgetful effect.
No. You are from another timeline.
next a starship super heavy with 2 starship boosters and a huge center for space colonization
I'm curious why you didn't discuss the fuel crossfeed that they were trying to use on Falcon Heavy.
merlin is named after the bird, a type of bird of pray like raptor, falcon etc.
The R/R engine was also called "Merlin", and Elon is known to be an early aviation history buff, so he would certainly be aware of both meanings.
@@taiwanjohnyou mean "aware if the meaning of both"?
I find affixing the suffix "s" to words already conjugated with the suffix "ing" is pure mouth-breather mentak retardation due to misding sense of syntax.
Would you also type "bikings" ie. "The bikings I go on are all offroad" of would you have done sense in realizing the "s" is your rendering a degenerate double conjugation?
What next, rapings, killings, joustings, castings, blastings, fistings, stingings, ringings, drawings, workings, lashings, snatchings?... What other phonetically retarded misuse of the suffix "s" will you mouth-breathers make next?
Before people start to go off to mars. Since people will risk their lives for 7 months or 45 days on the journey towards mars the shuttle should be tested for 7 months or 45 days near earth around the orbit and then land back down to earth to see what would go wrong if this was the real journey. I know there are more talented people then me yet I'm just saying because it just came to my mind like that that's why. I'm a space lover too, my passion is astrophotography and starts planets black holes, white holes pulsars nabulae clusters superclusters giants super giants laniakea and many more. I read a lot of things too about astronomy. I knew about jwst when I was very young but at that time jwst was on earth being builtI wanted to be an Astronomer but due to some issues I was unable to become what I wanted. Anyways it's a great video.
"Rapid unscheduled disassembly." lolol
Everything is always delayed in the aerospace industry? Well, the most famous is somehow not... you know which one.
Great video and summary of FH. I think Starship will be much more difficult and take far longer to become operational than expected. If FH was human rated it could carryout the Moon missions. In expendable form it can carry enough payload for us to regularise transfers to the Moon much cheaper than Artemis, using the Dynetics lander.
Manipulations and deceptions for the ignorant and the naive. Electrogravitic propulsion is easier, simpler and much less expensive than this, but that will rather make it possible for anyone to do therefore enabling you see what they have hidden from you for thousands of years. Don't believe this. It's for your attention and you're making them succeed.
I really look forward to how things will progress over my lifetime. Even if it takes another 10 years to have the ability to more easily transfer to the moon, then within my lifetime ill see some incredible things happen, possibly space mining colonies towards the end of my life
I see a heavy light in the future. A falcon with the starships engines.
I agree, just updating a few points with Starship tech could be phenomenal for missions that don't need as much payload as a full starship. Same goes for the Falcon 9
@JZ's BFF One test flight before planned upgrades to stage 0 is hardly a rational critique of starship.
Merlin is also a kind o falcon, the name way the starship Raptor is named after the bird of pray instead of the dinosaur.
Could you imagine a superheavy version of this?

Good video...
the side boosters need to move upwards and connected just below the top of the structure, connected with 90 degree bends to the main structure - the tradition of using thrust to push is the problem - balancing a pencil needs not to be from below - apply thrust to pull. do you carry a briefcase by the base , balancing it on your hand, or by the handle?
Vertically pumped out proud is man made cloud - only produced by the masterpiece and the proud - the one and only crowd - that man can make all the crowd so proud - is only vertically made man made cloud - pumped out made proud.
I had the coolest car ever. It had no heat in the winter.
@9:18 The real reason 🚀🚀🚀
Can you imagine the G's on boostback! Good grief what an accomplishment
"It didn't explode; it just blew up into myriad of little pieces."
Hahah!
@thespacerace The merlin engine is named after the merlin falcon, not the wizard.
Arabsat-6A recovered only side boosters, not centre core. Centre core HAS landed, but while recovery to the coast, it flipped over and crashed.
I think the idea that Starship will ever be cleared by NASA to launch astronauts from the surface of the Earth is never going to happen. Who wants the crew to launch INSIDE THE SECOND STAGE OF THE ROCKET with the fuel tanks, with no launch escape system? Been there. Didn't turn out too well every 1 in 200 chances.
So a case could be made to keep Falcon Heavy in service and retire the SLS instead once Starship is fully operational and relatively reliable, and use FH to launch Orion capsules from Earth to rendezvous with Starship in Earth orbit.
.....and this will bring us to Ares V + Ares I, just 2-3 decade later.
