Beautiful, yet very eerie. Have we really come this far that we plan to leave this planet? Maybe only a few people at a time, but I fear the time when the last man leaves our mother planet Earth.
Maarten van Rossem Lezingen It's the promise of it all, the grandness of the vision. I'm not feeling the way I am out of a respect for triangles and textures rotating, it's the message it conveys.
It is inevitable, though. In the off chance that mankind makes it until the sun turns into a red giant, we'd have to leave. At that point, there's not really anything left for humanity in the solar system.

Dec 2020. Im 23. I will reply this comment when we land on Mars. Humanity will do it and we are going to see it. March 2021. Im 23 Starship SN10 has just landed for the first time. May 2021. Im 23 SN15 has landed (for real) successfully. Nov 2022. Im 25. Still waiting. Still confident to know we are going to do it. With Artemis we are going to the Moon again. Matter of time. March 2023. Im 26. First almost orbital flight with the Super Heavy Booster. It's crazy to think that at the beginning of this thread, three years ago, not even a Starship had been flown before. Per aspera ad astra.
This is the kind of stuff that should get people excited. Not a new phone or getting to see famous people. Although I would be very excited if I met Elon.
a new phone can also be a step forward in technology and it's definitely exciting to see them and the progress we make in this sphere. i'd take that out of your statement
It is science fiction for now, maybe it'll become reality in 10 years. Honestly, I'm a little worried about 42 damn engines. Russians fucked up with this scheme, and S-V worked pretty well with just 5 huge ones.
As a suicidal person struggling with holding on for dear life, this does keep me going. If I had succeeded in 2007, I'd have missed out on so much fun. Thanks SpaceX for giving some of us some things to distract us from our disturbed minds. Also for letting Labpadre and co. to install cams so we can be part of your daily operation even if its just a loud cryo tanks buzz and construction vehicles beeping. I may be in South Africa but I feel like I am walking around Boca Chica..
What's going to be incredible is the slow progression towards the realisation of this vision. Test firings of the raptor engine (Check), SpaceX to find their feet again with the Falcon 9, the launching of the Falcon Heavy, Red Dragon, tests of this rocket, full scale launch. So much more needs to take place for this to become a reality. It's absolutely incredible and with so many steps needed to make this vision a reality, no matter how we go it's going to be an incredible journey. Godspeed SpaceX, Mars awaits!
People underestimate the social implications of colonizing a planet where even air is scarce. You might be able to vet small teams of astronauts to make sure they are all psychologically stable, but sending hundreds of people? Sooner or later there is going to be the first criminal on Mars, and the first burnout, and the first person who wants to retire. In a colony none of those things are permissible, resources are too scarce, and sending them home is impractical or even impossible. This won't be a place for soft people and soft laws. Also let's not forget that this is corporate colonization, so who governs you on Mars? On top of that you can't even talk to earth. Communication takes between 3-22 minutes depending on where Mars is in it's orbit, so no internet, no phonecalls. Best you might get is a live stream from earth on a few minute delay, and even that can be out for months during the opposition period. Because of the same phenomenon spaceships actually only have a window to travel between earth and mars every 2 years about. So it's not like you can go home or get help if something goes wrong. Sure, there is a certain romantic side to the idea of colonizing a new planet, but you're signing up to live in the most inhospitable place humans have ever been, under a corporate government, with no way to even have instant communication with earth, in a colony that will not have the resources to cut anyone any slack. Quite frankly, people who are all "Oooh, I can't wait to go so I can get away from all the problems on earth!" are too damn soft for this. If you can't handle the problems on earth, the problems on mars will destroy you.
What I think you might not realize, friend, is that there are people with nothing to lose who are willing to either make it or break it. You can expect a new frontier venture to be at the very limits of civilized society, because it is LITERALLY at the very edge of human reach. There's a very strong chance that a colonized Mars will be very much like the Wild West. Did lawlessness and criminality stop people from moving out to the west to seek opportunity? Hell Fuck Nah. Anybody who thinks moving to Mars and living there is going to be easy is going to be in for a very, very harsh and shocking awakening.
Th3Nigma Sure, there are people who are tough enough to do this. It's not people who think getting in a rocket to mars is a way to get away from problems.
Very well put, but in my humble opinion I think you're being a bit too pessimistic. Elon's idea will never get off the ground for at least another decade. Who knows where humanity will be then and what it can't and can do. Tech is expanding at a scary rate, while I don't agree with some of Elon's points, I think Mars is definitely possible. Although I will agree people who think that Mars is going to be "the better Earth", are quite frankly...well, retarded.
Every spaceship that gets there than comes back, so if you hate living there you can return on earth for free. And of course will be really challenging to live in a mars colony, but this will not stop people to go and try a new life.

I'm not sure the goal is to come back at all. This is the 21st century new frontier, any volunteers would understand the importance of their time devoted for the rest of humanity.
Today makes history. First time we have seen a full stack on the pad for real (B4S20). August 6, 2021. I can’t wait to tell my kids about watching Starship happening live. So much has changed, but we have come so far. Go Starship Go SuperHeavy Go SpaceX Go Humanity
There are no laws on Mars. There are no countries. The land is untouched. That's why we can design from scratch. We can even design the natural environment. We've made many design mistakes. We have learned from each failure. So this time, we can make a law that is more free than any law ever made before. Speaking of freedom, on Mars, we can move around freely with less than 30% gravity. Mars must be a heavenly place. However, I have a life expectancy; I will die at about 100 years old. I was born in the year 2000. I was born in the year 2000, so I will die in 2100 or so. Even if terraforming is possible, it will take until 2100 or so. However, I haven't given up hope. There is a possibility that my life span will be extended. And I wanted to send myself into the future. That's why I'm studying the subject of cryobiology. I may sound like a fool. But I'm serious. If we can succeed in cryopreservation technology, we can send human beings to the future. I believe that such a future will come. If this technology can be developed, I want to go to the future. It may be useful for interplanetary flight as a cold sleep. That's why I've decided to develop the technology for cryopreservation. Thank you, Elon Musk, for making me dream. I once had nothing to do and wanted to die many times. But I don't want to live a boring life where I want to die. I don't care what anyone says, I'm looking to the future. 2021/8/12
I think it's not unlikely that the demography of Mars may be very similar to that of Nobel prize winners. If that is the case, Mars will be over 20% Jewish.
Wow... all it took was the threat of having Trump or Hillary having their finger on the button for the biggest stockpile of nuclear weapons on earth, and all of a sudden this goes from being a "someday we'll get there" idea, to a "HOLY CRAP! PACK YOUR STUFF! I WILL LEAVE YOU BEHIND IF YOU'RE NOT ON BOARD IN 5 MINUTES!" scenario.
I remember when this video was released and I thought it was a really cool concept. I remember watching this rocket evolve and change names from ITS, BFR, Starship and probably a few more, I remember when they switched the material from carbon fiber to stainless steal. And now, Starship and the Superheavy booster have been stacked more then once, and they are literally ready for an orbital flight test as we speak. Life is crazy.
No it's not. Did you think that hoverboards were going to happen also? Scifi animation is always scifi animation. This thing was made completely by artists and there's about 1000 things wrong here.
@@JustCoNa They really don't. When something becomes so interconnected, we strive to keep that structure as stable as possible. To think a World War will happen again is simply ass talk and is a neglect of history.
@@bose1372 there is... they may not be intelligent to make space ships, rockets or anything like that, but they do exist there are a LOT of exoplanets we found and some are the right distance from their star to have life
Oh it´s much more than that. Other achievements will fade away but in thousands of years (if we make it) people will still remember the man and the ships that first propelled us into the cosmos. If he succeeds there will be songs, myths and maybe even religions about the moment, Heart of Gold touched down on a barren planet.
very poetic. i also believe that if we start colonizing other planets, then climate change and resource drain will not be as heavy on Earth as we could use another planet for those needs. Plus, extinction of species through humans could decrease. There isnt any known life on Mars so utilisng it for human needs wouldnt be bad
not really, the dawn of a new space age will be when we get affordable personal civilian craft, or when we terraform a planet, or when we can get up to a fraction of the speed of light, this will be impressive and a huge step (if it succeeds) but it isnt exactly something that will change the human race as we know it.
I’m here 6 years after this video was posted and starship is launching in a few days, I just wanted to say that it has come a long way and I can’t wait to see the first launch!
Fri, Aug 6th, 7:15 AM eastern. Today we witnessed history. For the first time ever, a starship was placed on top of a superheavy booster in starbase, Boca Chica, texas. It was the most beautiful sight I've seen. I WATCHED IT LIVE FROM ACROSS THE WORLD. I WAS THERE.
I cannot imagine how much people are gonna freak out when humans actually set foot on mars ... Billions of people are going to watch it happen and scream at their TVs. it will be magnificent. Even watching rovers land on mars is exciting but seeing humans walk on mars would be the most amazing thing imaginable. it will be an historic moment. the biggest achivement of mankind. just Imagine beeing the first person the leave the first starship on mars... your name would be remembered till the end of humanity ... the first human to set foot on another planet. maybe even the first living creature to set foot on a different planet you were born on ... this feeling ...i would die of excitement leaving this ship. Its truly mad to be arround to whitness this event.
Is it just me or is it every time we reach for the stars I get a very nostalgic feeling. It feels like were going home, like our place is in the stars. I mean we are made of star dust right?
@nijk Stars are made up of mostly Hydrogen and Helium, with several other gasses being made like nitrogen and oxygen(even carbon). Very large stars tend to have heavier elements like Iron being forged in their cores.
Before I started following spacex and Elon musk only a couples of years ago I never would’ve believed we would get to mars in the foreseeable future. Now I believe it 100% This world has so much good and bad, but for those of us who are fortunate enough to not be in the throws of war, famine, or some bullshit regime, it is truly an amazing time to be alive
pendraco2000 people don’t realize but with the BFR, it will be possible to move to the moon or mars. Our grandparents and parents watched the moon landings, we get to live them
@@rundownpear2601 well, the main thing is more setting up viable colonies both of those places. we can get to 'em, sure. actually living there is a whole diff problem.
As much as i'm inspired by what he has done i'd have to agree. He's a clever guy, with no small amount of talent in software, engineering, and science, but it is largely determination that drives SpaceX and Tesla. He's not a "genius", and i think he'd agree about that. Tom Mueller might be something of a genius with respect to his understanding of rocket engines though.
William McNamara A generation of space-travellers is being forged right now.We are the generation-Z,the ones to first reach Mars,but after us comes an even more promising generation of bright individuals,generation-X,with the knowledge and tools to terraform Mars and venture further on to other planets.Grab your pencils,cause we're about to write history.
I am 13, and god dammit Elon is my hero! I have always wanted to pursue a career in science, and to explore the unknown, and Elon is going to get me, hell, my entire generation there.
@Martin That is if our technology and scientific knowledge doesn't grow, and as we see here on Earth that's not the case. I am pretty sure given billions of years we can develop some kind of a device to travel really fast.
I don't even know...the audience was so awkward. Like they missed so many jokes and moments for applause. It was really awkward. Something this big deserved a better audience.
Hres Good explanation. The hardest challenge as I see it is creating an artificial magnetic field around Mars. Without it the atmo will just fade away over the years.
You got there before me. As I understand it, Mars has no magnetic field, and that is how it lost it's atmosphere in the first place (solar wind blows it away). I've never heard anybody address how we can solve this issue. It's pointless to try to create an atmosphere we can breathe if it just blows away.
Thanks for adding that! , too many people need a reality check...That IS the reason Mars isn't like earth...not to mention protection from Solar and Cosmic Rays.
New World "on arrival" protocol. . . 1. stand by window and take a selfie 2. outside make footprint and take selfie 3. plant flag and claim new world as our own 4. look for aliens 5. if aliens' intelligence is enough to question our arrival. . . point to flag and reassert claim 7. if aliens state "but we live here". . . show smilie-thumbsup and state earnestly "we come in piece" 8, If aliens are suitably passified. . . gather them around. . . and take selfie
9. If point 8 is not viable, call in an airstrike and execute aliens untill pacification has been achieved. 10. Enslave aliens. 11. Rape their "females". 12. If aliens have no "females", rape them anyway. 13. Get wrecked when you find out that they jizz fluids incompatible with human biology. 14. Now you have a flesh eating virus. 15. You question your decisions as your crotch is eaten away by said virus, along with the rest of the colony. 16. Get lynched by aliens. 17. Lol.
Yeah, and as one writer once noted, "The future is running a little behind schedule." Look at science fiction from the 1950's to the 1980's. We are already supposed to be doing shit like this.
These are CAD (a programm used by engineers to design stuff) designs. The designs are finished they have begun construction. The main LOX tank for the spaceship is completed and the mind-bendingly awesome engine (Raptor) has been succesfully tested.
@@Marc98338 It sure as hell was about the rocket. Creating a fully reusable launch system is what makes Mars possible. And if you have followed SpaceX since this first unveiling you'll know the design has evolved into Starship, with Ship 20 and booster 4 almost ready for an orbital attempt. And anyone who thinks this will be a fun pleasant mission is dumb AF. This will be like arctic expeditions or the discovery voyages of the 17th and 18th century. It'll be hard work with few comforts and significant dangers. Once the ship is developed and flying they can focus more on Mars and habitats
Don't worry, you'll see it, you're the universe experiencing itself, after you die you'll be another culmination of the universe in human form, so on and so forth
You must be living in a bubble. There's quite a few wars going on now in the middle east with many countries involved. There's also saber rattling between nuclear powers: US/China over South China Sea and US/Russia over Syria, Ukraine +US blaming all their problems on Putin/Russia.
6 years, animation to maiden flight. Last time we saw the largest launch vehicle in the world go from drawboard to real life, only in Apollo project. Time to bring the space race back. Time to go to the skies.
I’m going back to school for mechanical engineering and maybe further just because I want to one day be a part of at least the smallest aspect of this or something like it. I don’t care if it involves me designing a single bolt for a craft like this but it would be worth it.

Starship flew again this weekend, and made a perfect ascent and hot staging. This is actually happening.

notice the lack of a return stage
The Spaceship can return to earth once it's refueled on Mars. The ship burns methane and oxygen which can be both produced on Mars from solar energy. For the chem. reaction you need CO2 (plenty on Mars) and water (plenty water ice). The chemical reaction is basically a shortcut from Water and CO2 becoming a plant, get eaten by a cow to then turn into a fart which is methane. :)

'' first human step on mars ... "
How close is closer than most people think?
less than a decade
Sooner than folks think
Today makes history. First time we have seen a full stack on the pad for real (B4S20). August 6, 2021. I can’t wait to tell my kids about watching Starship happening live. So much has changed, but we have come so far.
Go Starship
Go SuperHeavy
Go SpaceX
Go Humanity
Go humanity go
It is time for your speices to learn how to walk in cosmic realm and maybe some day in the future, learn how to run to the stars.
That's amazing, but I'd still prefer if starship was the ITS, the design is soooo pretty
There are no laws on Mars. There are no countries. The land is untouched. That's why we can design from scratch. We can even design the natural environment. We've made many design mistakes. We have learned from each failure. So this time, we can make a law that is more free than any law ever made before. Speaking of freedom, on Mars, we can move around freely with less than 30% gravity. Mars must be a heavenly place.
However, I have a life expectancy; I will die at about 100 years old. I was born in the year 2000. I was born in the year 2000, so I will die in 2100 or so.
Even if terraforming is possible, it will take until 2100 or so. However, I haven't given up hope.
There is a possibility that my life span will be extended. And I wanted to send myself into the future. That's why I'm studying the subject of cryobiology. I may sound like a fool. But I'm serious. If we can succeed in cryopreservation technology, we can send human beings to the future. I believe that such a future will come. If this technology can be developed, I want to go to the future. It may be useful for interplanetary flight as a cold sleep. That's why I've decided to develop the technology for cryopreservation. Thank you, Elon Musk, for making me dream. I once had nothing to do and wanted to die many times. But I don't want to live a boring life where I want to die. I don't care what anyone says, I'm looking to the future. 2021/8/12

I remember when this video was released and I thought it was a really cool concept. I remember watching this rocket evolve and change names from ITS, BFR, Starship and probably a few more, I remember when they switched the material from carbon fiber to stainless steal. And now, Starship and the Superheavy booster have been stacked more then once, and they are literally ready for an orbital flight test as we speak. Life is crazy.
Tomorrow is also the 2nd flight test. It's been a long journey.

Starship looks so much different than it does now..
Improve. Adapt. Overcome.
The rocket being used in testing is not actual. It is prototype just maded for testing. Actual one will be made after All testing is Completed
I know I’m talking about past concept arts and videos
It looks like the lunar Lander ngl
because this was an older design
it did it, unbelievable. give it a few month and it will be a working system. been hoping so long for this
I feel like we're at the dawn of new space age...
oh...we are. Boeing and Blue Originals are two companies already trying to compete with SpaceX.

Oh it´s much more than that. Other achievements will fade away but in thousands of years (if we make it) people will still remember the man and the ships that first propelled us into the cosmos. If he succeeds there will be songs, myths and maybe even religions about the moment, Heart of Gold touched down on a barren planet.
very poetic. i also believe that if we start colonizing other planets, then climate change and resource drain will not be as heavy on Earth as we could use another planet for those needs. Plus, extinction of species through humans could decrease. There isnt any known life on Mars so utilisng it for human needs wouldnt be bad
not really, the dawn of a new space age will be when we get affordable personal civilian craft, or when we terraform a planet, or when we can get up to a fraction of the speed of light, this will be impressive and a huge step (if it succeeds) but it isnt exactly something that will change the human race as we know it.
1:44 even shows the grid fins moving to stabilise the decent. Amazing animation
It's actually based off CAD renderings so it's highly accurate.
I’m here 6 years after this video was posted and starship is launching in a few days, I just wanted to say that it has come a long way and I can’t wait to see the first launch!
And today they just stacked the starship fully for the first time. It's getting closer and closer to reality.
It’s absurd, none of this existed two years ago. They are progressing so quickly!

I cannot imagine how much people are gonna freak out when humans actually set foot on mars ... Billions of people are going to watch it happen and scream at their TVs. it will be magnificent.
Even watching rovers land on mars is exciting but seeing humans walk on mars would be the most amazing thing imaginable. it will be an historic moment. the biggest achivement of mankind. just Imagine beeing the first person the leave the first starship on mars... your name would be remembered till the end of humanity ... the first human to set foot on another planet. maybe even the first living creature to set foot on a different planet you were born on ... this feeling ...i would die of excitement leaving this ship.

Our entire solar system, along with any star system in the universe, is the result of gravitationally collapsed stars :)
@nijk Stars are made up of mostly Hydrogen and Helium, with several other gasses being made like nitrogen and oxygen(even carbon). Very large stars tend to have heavier elements like Iron being forged in their cores.
Search for "Astrophe" on RUclips. That describes your feeling.

Elon Musk is a genius
Noup.
***** Actually he's just a good businessman
As much as i'm inspired by what he has done i'd have to agree.
He's a clever guy, with no small amount of talent in software, engineering, and science, but it is largely determination that drives SpaceX and Tesla.
He's not a "genius", and i think he'd agree about that.
Tom Mueller might be something of a genius with respect to his understanding of rocket engines though.
*****
oooh i forgot about the photographic memory
he's a crook, not a genius
Can you imagine how many kids are inspired by this. I'm hooked now, imagine if I were 12!
William McNamara A generation of space-travellers is being forged right now.We are the generation-Z,the ones to first reach Mars,but after us comes an even more promising generation of bright individuals,generation-X,with the knowledge and tools to terraform Mars and venture further on to other planets.Grab your pencils,cause we're about to write history.
I am 13, and god dammit Elon is my hero! I have always wanted to pursue a career in science, and to explore the unknown, and Elon is going to get me, hell, my entire generation there.
Yeah, ive been interesting this because of him.
you have no idea how hooked i am and inspired i am by him. would commit a genocide to meet him

I love the soundtrack, it gives me a hopeful and futuristic vibe
In the future passports will have planets.
Maybe even universes.
then if our sun explodes lets move to andromeda
@Martin
That is if our technology and scientific knowledge doesn't grow, and as we see here on Earth that's not the case. I am pretty sure given billions of years we can develop some kind of a device to travel really fast.
@Martin Yes but again 50 years ago we wouldn't even believe of going to the moon
@Martin if wormholes were possible we could i think
4 years ago, this animation of BFR was revealed. Now, in August 2021, after many design changes, BFR, now known as Starship, has been stacked!

I can't believe how stupid most of the questions people asked during Elon Musk's Q&A were. I felt so bad for him.
Ya me 2, he even said at the start, i will leave the technical for the q and a. What was up with that audience.
I don't even know...the audience was so awkward. Like they missed so many jokes and moments for applause. It was really awkward. Something this big deserved a better audience.
agree, finally a good comment jezus.
Yeah, I cringed the first 10mins of the Q&A before leaving.
Yep, I was disappointed in the audience
Did they tease tera-forming Mars?? (Water as it was spinning)
Yes, this is the long-long-long-long term plan. Perhaps centuries. We will probably not be alive to see it.
That is legit.
Hres Good explanation. The hardest challenge as I see it is creating an artificial magnetic field around Mars. Without it the atmo will just fade away over the years.
You got there before me. As I understand it, Mars has no magnetic field, and that is how it lost it's atmosphere in the first place (solar wind blows it away). I've never heard anybody address how we can solve this issue. It's pointless to try to create an atmosphere we can breathe if it just blows away.
Thanks for adding that! , too many people need a reality check...That IS the reason Mars isn't like earth...not to mention protection from Solar and Cosmic Rays.

5. if aliens' intelligence is enough to question our arrival. . . point to flag and reassert claim
7. if aliens state "but we live here". . . show smilie-thumbsup and state earnestly "we come in piece"
8, If aliens are suitably passified. . . gather them around. . . and take selfie
yes, of course. . . nice contribution. . . I've edited and added it as 8.
9. Rule 34.

10. Enslave aliens.
11. Rape their "females".
12. If aliens have no "females", rape them anyway.

28.7 MILLION pounds of thrust. That's 3 and a half Saturn Vs at your back. Cripes.

And what's the height of this monster? Saturn V was like 110 m tall.
122 meters/400 feet.
at cruising speed to mars it will be going 173 miles per second. At that rate it would take the ship 16 secobds or so to get from LA to new york.

I loved this design
GUYS WE´RE IN THE FUCKING FUTURE
It feels like the first chapters of an awesome scifi adventure! Till now everything else was prologue... ^_^
You'll know it once Mars is all chrome.
Yeah, and as one writer once noted, "The future is running a little behind schedule." Look at science fiction from the 1950's to the 1980's. We are already supposed to be doing shit like this.
I am.. You're not :p
I love this vision! The biggest dream.
It's just a movie. Not for real.
These are CAD (a programm used by engineers to design stuff) designs. The designs are finished they have begun construction. The main LOX tank for the spaceship is completed and the mind-bendingly awesome engine (Raptor) has been succesfully tested.
@@user-lv7ph7hs7l Its not about the rocket lol... Its about the planet called Mars. Anything but a humane place to be as a human.
@@Marc98338 It sure as hell was about the rocket. Creating a fully reusable launch system is what makes Mars possible. And if you have followed SpaceX since this first unveiling you'll know the design has evolved into Starship, with Ship 20 and booster 4 almost ready for an orbital attempt.
And anyone who thinks this will be a fun pleasant mission is dumb AF. This will be like arctic expeditions or the discovery voyages of the 17th and 18th century. It'll be hard work with few comforts and significant dangers. Once the ship is developed and flying they can focus more on Mars and habitats
SpaceX makes me hopeful for the future, but I am kinda sad that we'll probably miss a lot of interesting things that Mars and the future holds.
You lost your Glasses

we don't need wars to get ourselves killed, we are a resourceful and stupid species
You must be living in a bubble. There's quite a few wars going on now in the middle east with many countries involved. There's also saber rattling between nuclear powers: US/China over South China Sea and US/Russia over Syria, Ukraine +US blaming all their problems on Putin/Russia.
