Wake up bud , it's as fake as the " 2:30 moon landings" 😂

If we were to rely on my knowhow, we'd be back to stonetools and sticks! I sure as hell cant build no rockets!

Now we wait for hyperdrive ...
then official visit from vulcanians 😂
still cant afford a house tho

I'm a 65 year old woman who isn’t even into this kind of stuff, and yet it amazes me, makes me happy, and even brings a tear to my eye. Go Elon!
Extraordinary, well done Space X 🎉
There were SO MANY engineering problems that had to be solved to make it look this easy.... Great job Elon and Co!!!!
There were so many worldwide problems (much more critical ones) yet this clown decided to go with catching rockets…apalling
@@Joris-KarlHuysmans Say the guy writing his comment on space derived technologies...
Short sideness is clouding your views.
@@Joris-KarlHuysmans The resources in our solar system are virtually limitless. Imagine mining that doesn't involve scarring the earth. Imange manufacturing in space away from our delicate ecosystem. This is the goal. Look up, it's not always bad news. Have a great day.
@@Joris-KarlHuysmans Communication? Starlink has made that possible all over the world - that has got to be a massive boost to civilisation.
@@Joris-KarlHuysmansyou’ve just written one of the dumbest comments I have ever read in my entire life. Congrats!
They’ll be teaching this lesson in physics all the way up to the 30th century
Elon and SpaceX bringing the future to us early!
Love his engineering projects but not so excited about other things he is involved with.
He didn't build anything. The engineers did.
Superb stuff by an African American..
He's trying to bring the past back to The Whitehouse so he can manipulate a senile old man. Not too great IMO.
This event will go down as a date in history that will outlive every single one of us. Amazing
Anyone can reverse a video!
@@sarryuken8786^^^ Found the crackpot!!!
Except maybe Kieth Richards.
The current cost of each Starship launch is $100m or $1,600 per kg compared to the largest NASA rocket, Artemis that costs$4B per launch or over $43,000 per kg.
The free market is always the most efficient.
There never was anything the government could do efficiently and with this administration, it has gotten far beyond ridiculous. We are governed by buffoons that couldn't hold a job in the free market.
And tbf once they start reusing boosters and ships it will be as low as 10 million
NASA is all but defunct.
@@cocomjolk"free market" HIGHLY subsidized by the US government
What is wild is that we live in a era where other mainstream media will try to downplay this Incredible feat.. Just because they don't like the owner.
Exactly. Truly twisted and cynical times we live in
I think the UK generally feel some kinda of way just because their space program has been a dismal failure so they always want to downplay what America does in terms of space exploration

With that kind of precision of space craft that size to land like that i can already see space ships, hope i live long enough to see a space fighter to be developed

Hope to live to the point where no fighters are needed, especially in such magnificent place as space.
Even though I don't follow it closely, the level of euphoria of the people involved after succefull "landing" made my eyes water. Congratulations!!!
Congratulations SpaceX!

I loved the tone of skepticism in the expert's comments. Very English. What an amazing day for Space X.
They make good tea though.😊
That’s amazing engineering with technological wizardry
yeah all of that and still cant afford a house.
The world needed this
How exactly?
Super unbelievable precision!!!
Its just a video played back in reverse!

That professor is a classic example of why the UK is in the state it is today. Negative, cautious, sanctimonious and bitter. There’s a few of left here who aren’t like him… Go Space X, Go USA, from England.
My thoughts as well!
Exactly. Nothing but negative talk. Like to see him try and do something like this.
The USA is also steeped in cynicism. It’s the default mode here as well. This is why this feat is so remarkable. No one thought he could do it.
I’m also from the UK and couldn’t agree more.
So true. That’s the example he sets for his students. Prof Mike Cruise. Remember his name.
Someone tell Boeing this is what a victory looks like, not stranding 2 Astronauts on the ISS for months
Boeing landed 12 Americans on the moon and brought them back safe and sound! Put some respect on Boeing
Ps: stay in your line redcoats ;-) 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 world#1
@@MrKirua21it was a whole different Boeing company then. Now, it has been rotten to the bone by greed!
That was 52 years ago.
The Boeing of today resembles the Apollo-era Boeing in name only. The technical know-how from the Moon landing is retired/dead; the engineering leadership is gone. MBAs from Mcdonald Douglas took over leadership.
At this point, Boeing is more in the news for crashing planes and suddenly suicidal whistleblowers than it is innovationof.
@@MrKirua21 No they didnt, Grumman and Lockheed designed the lander. Boeing developed the Lunar Rover... Space X can use Cyber TRuck
@@landcruiser801 Boeing designed the first stage of the Saturn V.
Impressive 🎉
This has got to be the best bit of technology since the original moon landing... Looks like a video game, as it returns to the launch pad and gripped by the robotic arms... Taken 50 years, but it looks as if the humans have finally got to grips with this ' space ' thing...
Wow Elon Musk is defeating every other spece launching agencies
Bezos is crying in his beer.Amateur!
😂😂😂@@janetprice85
Uhh.. He's been doing that for like a decade now? Today he just asserted his dominance and unattainable lead over the world of space tech.
No, he isn't. The *_engineering and technical teams at SpaceX_* are defeating every other space launching agency, except for NASA. Stop making Musk out to be a god; he's not. He's a mouthy a$$hole who throws money at problems but occasionally gains enough sense to get out of the way of people who know what they're doing. Credit the people who actually do the research and work. Yes, Musk can inspire and push people into doing what he wants but he tends to jerk off his ego and his main contribution is money. NASA is crippled by having to suffer with congressional oversight, budget shackles and overly restrictive laws. Hope Musk never causes SpaceX to end up with the same "quality" as the CyberTruck.
@@janetprice85 😅😅🤣
Absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!!
Growing up in the 80's and looking forward to a Space Shuttle Mission every 5+ years, this makes me so happy!!! 😢
I've gone from watching Apollo take off and seeing people walk on the moon, to this. Incredible!
Yes, true... All of us, over the age of 60, have wondered why the progress of humanity into space, seems to have slowed down to a crawl... After the excitement of the moon landings, we all expected so much more... But not much happened, apart from a few space stations....
The dude at the end questioning if reusability can be done must not know of Falcon haha.
Well, technically, Falcon 9 undergoes refurbishment after every launch. Elon wants starship to fuel and go multiple times a day, so that's a bit different.
He's questioning rapid reusability, not reusability as a whole.
@@crabLTwhy refurbishment? Falcon 9 doesn't do a lengthy turnover process like the space shuttle
the experts 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 clowns
@@imanalfarizi6214 It does quite a lengthy refufbishment that can take well over a month. SpaceX wants to be able to launch starship again within a day.
What a historic moment and achievement! 😮
That looks unreal.
Incredible.
A win for SpaceX and a win for humanity.
What an incredible time were living through!
When the boys and girls at SpaceX go for the burn, they don't mess about! For those who don't know, the Superheavy Booster is 233 feet from end to end. That's more than HMS Victory, so that thing parking itself so neatly is actually longer than an 18th century warship!
Elon musk is a wizard
lizard* ?
@@henrynov1 he is, he makes himself disappear

Truly remarkable remember elon years ago talking about this idea amazing to see it finally making progress
Imagine being in that room, everyone just going nuts 😂
Best thing I’ve seen in a while
I got goose bumps watching this. Great job.
Space-X team should be proud of themselves for this
no es la forma mas barata ni segura pero es espectacular eso sí
Why am I first seeing this on a foreign news channel?
The WWW
Main Street media hates musk that’s why. It’s appalling
There will be many boosters at all launch sites, each fully refurbed before next flight.
Yea I would think that's how it would work. There would be a conveyor belt of super heavies primed and ready to go for the next launch.
@@ianmatthews7385It is fact and is happening at many launch sites.
This was an extraordinary milestone for humanity.
Truly incredible 🎉
HOLY COW!!! Incredible to watch as a spectator! How does it feel to live it as its creator?!
I am so proud of us. Literally tearing up!
HUGE Effort from SpaceX : A GIANT CATCH FOR MANKIND
Goosebumps every time I watch it.
He said it and I quote "I want humanity to be excited about space again"
Absolutely Incredible !
Yes!
Beautifully graceful ❤
Expert: Sceptical tone.
Elon Musk: Laws of Physics.
I know who I'll put my money on.
"Nothing in the world is impossible" today I understand.❤❤❤
That's one small step for man. One giant leap for mankind.
“One small step for A man”….
@@coastlinersmithy a man that carries the whole world on his shoulder.
That's one small step for Elon Musk, but one giant leap for mankind.
I’m not sure many people understand how profound this is. This is a crucial step in possibly making humans a multi planetary species. If humans are around millions of years from now, it will likely be because of the efforts demonstrated in this video.
That’s it! Am going to work for space x one day
HOW is that NOT CGI? SO AMAZING! I cannot believe they pulled that off... still in shock.
Good question
Fair play ,big up space x and musky
This is what we need as humans. This should be on every TV everywhere, not hidden from public eye by the media.
Space x is future😮
Despite its large budget, NASA has struggled to match SpaceX's rocket capabilities
It's like catching a lighted cigarette with a pair of chopsticks
I guess this is going to change the future if space exploration. Amazing!
amazing engineering
Unbelievable
absolutely incredible.
we are witnessing a major event in history.
They just played a video in reverse to give the effect it was landing instead of taking off!
Ingenious way to land it
Amazing technology
RTH + Precision Landing
Its actually spectacular
They have the experience of reusability with Falcon 9. What the space insiders deemed not feasible few years back.
Flippin' crazy! I still worry about the long term effects of all this stuff going on up there
That is crazy and amazing ! Wow.
Brilliant....actual science fiction made real 🎉
@@Progdrummer science fiction can never be “actual”
Absolutely exhilarating! Congrats to Space X team and Elon Musk and all the men and women who were part of this. Proud to be an American. Go 🇺🇸 USA!
Awesome! Game Changer!
2:03 ''remains to be seen'' ... why is he such a hater? Space X is already doing that with Falcon 9's
The way he said that sounds so doubtful and ignorant
It was a marvel and spectacular to be sure.❤
It is rather amusing that what I can only assume is either a millennial or zoomer, is so easily offended. There was no hate in what he said. He's being reasonable and cautious.
وكأنني أرى فلم خيال علمي ❤❤❤❤❤
Got emotion, so extraordinary!!!
Outstanding
This is incredible...the booster came to its place
Holy crap!! Go USA 🇺🇸 from your little bro UK 🇬🇧 Elon musk damn!
Spacex is making space interesting again.
Amazing !
I feel lucky to be living in this era.
incredible
amacing!
Meanwhile, Boeing's reputation continues to swirl down the toilet.
DEI will do that
"Every journey starts with a single step" ... Dude, this is already step #1000 or so.
😆😆😆
great narration :)
Brilliant. Go SpeceX, Go USA, Go Elon!
Absolutely stunning. I can hardly believe my eyes. How this was done is nothing short of a miracle, let's see the Russians, Chinese or Indians copy this. !!
Absolutely amazing 🤟✌️💯👍🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
Only in the USA.
When will this projector be available to the public ?
I'm not sure why I feel more proud to be an American today than I was yesterday.
So on the brake fins they should be printed like a taper one way and opposite taper other so its brake one way and steering other
Fantastic
Impressive ... Well done
