@@coosonthaloose4036 - True, I read the noise increase isn't linear, but it's got to be insane. I've stayed where Tim is for SN11, and 1 engine will wake you up in those canal houses in Port Isabelle every time. No one slept sober through that.
Some of it is the synch between audio and video, partly latency, partly probably codec conversions and stuff. But there's certainly a pretty huge amount of delay in real terms from pure distance.
Great launch and covrage! Big congratulations to everyone at SpaceX and your production team. Something interesting I've noticed is that at 7:36:17 you can see the exact moment when B9 blew up by going frame by frame and the explosion clearly came from the common dome area suggesting that it was indeed the FTS. That's great because it means that the upgraded FTS actually works and that B9 was intentionally destroyed due to something like a range violation after an anomaly in the boostback burn and did not explode from damage after hotstaging.
Later at 8:56:33 they show a close view with telemetry synced up where you can see some of the engines failed to come back for the boostback burn after separation. Seems like it either deviated from planned course and terminated itself or they did so from the ground upon noticing.
Wonderful coverage...I watched live at 2:30am here in Hawaii...Woke up my astrophysicist wonderful wife, I am just an engineer and have worked with NASA on JWST detectors...Born in New Orleans 62 years ago and I know the entire gulf coast from Texas to Florida, and have been in Hawaii for 36 years and was waiting to see Starship arrive miles from Kauai...When will the next test run happen is my question...smile...I watched the Apollo launch in 1969 live on TV with my grandpa when I was 10...1969 is our gate code...fun test when you tell a friend , "it's the year we landed on the moon"
Isn't that the truth! Just hang on to every second as the launch continues, just like back then. Keep going Space X. Let us old space cadets from the 60's see as much of this renewed space exploration as we can before our systems shut down.
Not really. During the Apollo program it was all anyone talked about anywhere people were talking. This isn't even being followed by average people today. For the nerds like us it is a really big deal, but for the average person there wasn't even anything in the evening news about the launch. It is great to be present in the moment, as we witness our journey into the future. But for those of us that watched Mercury, Gemini and Apollo this is a sweet return to the excitement. But you should be aware that when we watched Apollo 11, we were being told that there was a high likelihood that the mission would fail and all astronauts would die in space. So much of the excitement was we didn't know that we would be successful. Those were the days where very little testing occurred, everything had to work the first time. SpaceX has an advantage in that they can test to failure over and over because we have real computers flying. Apollo's computer was just a slow, simple, calculator. SpaceX flight computers act as if they are the men flying, and since they are expendable, we get to fly test after test after test now. Back in the 1960's, a man had to be at risk in the majority of test flights, which is why we had to go through three major generations of craft with men flying VERY risky missions. No one worries about all of the SpaceX flight computers lost. That makes a big difference.
@@idontwantacallsignspacex has the _luxury_ of moving faster and less cautiously than Apollo, since these are unmanned, and much cheaper on a per unit basis. This _was_ a successful launch for SpaceX. They have different goals.
@@idontwantacallsign So far 100% of the spacex flights were successful. Because we have flight computers flying, and SpaceX was only testing one flight objective at a time. So every explosion represented successful data collection up to that point. There were no failures, only lessons learned along the way. The Mercury/Gemini/Apollo missions had no flight computers, all flight was at the risk of the men onboard that flew the thing. Each and every flight back then (with the exception of a small number of booster tests) was life or death. And there were MANY failures, just none that terminated flight because there were always men to bring back home. Even Apollo 13, with it's spectacular failure, did not terminate the flight. We returned those men with a completely dead stage, it was the LEM engines that brought the astronauts home. You are confusing the rapid iterations of SpaceX as failures. SpaceX tests one part at a time, and the entire rocket is lost once the test is done, until they start testing landings. You are confusing the test methodologies as failures. SpaceX is arguably the most successful space effort.
This launch exceeded all my expectations! Congrats SpaceX starship teams for making history! Thank you EDA and cosmic perspective for the coverage, y'all were amazing!
i thought it might complete, but i was pleasantly surprised all the engines lit, that is really, really encouraging. can't wait to find out why they did the RUDs
Man, I’ll bet they are so happy that your expectations were met. I can’t imagine this launch without you signing off on it. You did the world a big favor and as a society, we are in your debt, thank you.
To me, it looked like the hot stage put a lot of extra rotation into the booster. The RCS is fighting the yaw hard, and there are a few long "burns" trying to stabilize the trajectory. My guess is that it was getting close enough to the range of boundary after separation that the FTS was tracking input and result, and it was far enough out of position that it was physically unable to provide sufficient thrust in the correct direction to push back into the range. That long leak looking streamer is a thruster at absolute wide open, trying to push, but it wasn't moving fast enough so FTS came online
@@COSpecV420 either that or upgrade the RCS system to accommodate the kick. I doubt it was designed to control that level of loading They could also scarf/offset the diverter to guarantee a rotation in the nominal direction. Heck, even if they open an RSC port during separation, they can control the roll direction, and starship has the control authority to negotiate any yaw that introduces
@@seldoon_nemar I agree. RCS is probably going to be the easiest fix. I was worried about what the thrust from Starship's raptors would do to the booster trajectory/stability at those speeds. That's a lot of thrust going through that short ring and relatively small vents.
Hard to tell if that was intentional or not. It's possible they veer off like that on purpose to get out the way of the engine plume from stage 2 and avoid having it hit the same spot for too long.
My guess would be the asymmetric thrust from most of the engines on one side not lighting for the boostback threw it off course enough that the FTS activated.
7:40:02 for sure was a problwm of some kind, after that the O2 tank started to drop faster than the CH4 one, so whatever it was it caused some kind of extra oxygen leak
A massive amount of work and inspiration produced this launch and so congratulations Space X. Great coverage on this channel, intelligent and entertaining and some amazing coverage. Also, its great you dont talk over the actual launch, really appreciate that and shows you guys want to get us as close to the event as possible.
Great job by Spacex, but I expect to hear about a new separation system in dev. during the next several months. That hot stage ring weighs 9 metric tons and adds so much chaos to the system. It's a stop gap solution. I doubt it ends up in final system design.
@@Hungary_0987 That's how CEO's speak. In the ideal situation, yes it could add performance. Part of the ideal situation is hot staging adding 0 weight, 9 tons is significant amount of weight. They didn't have time to develop a separation system as the original intent was passive separation through controlled maneuver.
I've watched several feeds of this event and I have to say, and I am coining a new phrase here. You guys had the best "launch orgasm" of them all. Multiple angle and all. Thanks for sharing.
We enjoyed this whole broadcast. LOVED the emotions coming through too! They gave us a little taste of the experience and we apprecaite all of the hard work to pull of these shots!! 👏👏👏
Incredible clean launch! Perfect? No. We didn't get to the simulated return partial orbit or splashdown. S25 failed to reach its altitude. But major success nonetheless.
All of those Raptor engines running flawlessly this time was beautiful. I love how the combined thrust of the engines makes giant mach diamonds behind the rocket! Awesome.
But S25 did make it above the Karmàn Line, which its predecessor did not do. It also actually staged and the engines stayed lit for a significant portion of its intended burn. So this still worked a lot better than the first attempt.
Tim, you and your absolutely astounding crew are heroes! Although I missed your live coverage, just watching the recorded replay was soooo exciting! I will always watch your live feed (within my ability in Hawaii) for future launches. Thank y'all for not only all the hard work, but also all the excitement, enthusiasm & energy you bring to all of this. 👍
ALL 33! I know the hot-staging was the big deal here for a lot of us but for me I was mainly focused on whether we would get a full burn and a SUSTAINED burn and we did! All 33 burned all the way up to MECO - absolutely stellar.
Hi, amazing coverage, I had 2 screens going: one for SpaceX, one for you all! The more the merrier. Big thanks to all involved. You did a marvelous job. Keep on keeping on. Wonderful and much appreciated. I was in sixth grade when the teacher had a TV in our classroom so we could watch Alan Shephard become the first American to go into space on his suborbital flight. I've been watching our progress into space as much as possible since then. I hope Tim, you'll be able to narrate your experience live when your turn comes to go round the moon. Wow!
I'm going to take this opportunity to say that your footage of this launch was lightyears ahead of SpaceX's Twitter livestream coverage. It's almost embarrassing for SpaceX that they couldn't even compete with you, but at the same time a massive congratulations to you for pushing the boat out with your coverage. Thank you so much for this 🙏🏻
I watched this 2 days after and avoided the news stories, no spoilers! I'm so glad i watched this video first! You are all amazing! Tim and MaryLiz are the most enthusiastic hosts, love you guys! THE VIDEO! Holy crap! Literally the most incredible thing I have ever seen and again I'm so glad I watched Everyday Astronaut FIRST! ❤❤❤
I am sorry, but that explosion of stage one was awesome. My daughter turns two on Monday. She said “oh no!” Congrats to SpaceX. Keep doing what you are doing.
I always have trouble choosing between you and Felix. I wish I could watch both at the same time. However you are the start. You didn't get me into rocketry, but you did bring the visuals into my home! I sincerely appreciate it!
Now imagine mechazilla just restacking the next ship onto the previous booster and retaking it just now - and the whole launch repeat for a tanker and stuff over and over again 😍
Imagine being able to make it all the way first launch like others. Must be like magic. I know, russians, chinese or india are on another level of quality, but EEUU its really near them. Maybe some day they will get so advanced they even could be allowed to join them on their space stations or other projects.
Ellie in space has the best audio i have heard of the launch so far, but nice job on the visuals, great stream guys. Also Jack from NSF got a really clear and awesome shot of the booster exploding.
148km is about 485,000 feet. Huge improvement over first booster flight. Starship separated from booster successfully. I think SpaceX will call this a huge success.
Another example of why the saying" we have to build it, test it on the ground, test it in the sky anything goes boom that we weren't expecting, we go back to the Whiteboard, figure it out, and start over until we get it right" is how you get it right
It's how they got the first humans into space. Neither side of the Space Race had the simulation ability we do now, so iterative testing was what they had to do. And as we see, it works.
Tim. I have watched you since your beginnings. Thank you for all you do. Watched your broadcast this morning live side by side with SpaceX. Yours was excellent human coverage. Thank you. Elder Canadian here. Friend of Canadian spaceflight engineers. I watched the boys land on the moon live when I was 14. When you told Elon live what was what and he adopted it ... that was large. You do know in that moment you earned your place on Starship. 8-) You are a good man. Here is one issue I have. You and your sidekicks always talk about your amazing team. List them and give them credit. Publicly. They truly are great and you know you would be ZIP without them. Sort that out youngster. I support you. I consider Patreon. You do good work, BUT. Give credit where credit is due. And your moon launch? Fantastic. That is beyond belief. When NASA says its a go. Perfect. You deserve it. And todays Starship launch was literally perfect. I believe they learned from the first time and chose to detonate rather than suffer from 'get-there-itis' (Airline term.) SpaceX learned from the first time and killed them for course correction. Over-correction in my mind. Fair. And then I would finalize: Hot start. Not convinced. Too much stress on both vehicles. You can't just deflect that amount of pressure in that time frame and expect all to get away unscathed.
I think they should do the hot start later, after they have got it working more conventionally. I know there is Payload gain with hot start, but so much debris flying around, even the starship can get blasted by itself. Maybe I’m wrong, but I am sticking by Your opinion which is the same as mine, and the reason why is they need to get this thing farther down range to be able to test everything. It is a loss of opportunity not to get a reentry of the starship. That’s a real loss. Not worth the hot start.
@steveperreira5850 I don't think the vehicle was lost because of hot staging tho. Of course we have to wait until official confirmation from SpaceX but the hot staging looked really good
It's so crazy to think back to when they started building the first stuff for the first-ever Starship. I never thought that would fly, looked so rough, thin, and bad. But dang look how far SpaceX has come. max 5 years and Starship might be able to carry astronauts/people on board
Even though Starship Super Heavy decided to be cute and disassemble itself after the separation, still it was better progress than before, none of the 33 engines failed this time. They probably want to tweak with the startup procedure after the fact a little bit just so it doesn't have any blowouts or anything like that. Definitely better than the first launch.
Having now watched lots of the streams from this launch, I can honestly say I like this one the best. I have to admit that the one I watched live was the official feed on X. There's was not very good other than providing some authoritative statements, the only excitement was from inside me because of what I was launching. Yours I watched last. Man! I kept getting chills watching! My excitement climbed back to launch day levels yet I've seen it from so many angles and heard so many commentators. You do the best at bringing that human connection to the presentation. It's just a part of who you are. Keep on keeping on.
Phenomenal images, Tim. Thanks so much. Did you catch the NASA chase plane circling Starship's ascent? You can see the contrail when you were showing yourself watching ascent from behind.
Gotta say best stream of the launch. Thanks for making up for where SpaceX lacks on the streaming department now xD blown away by the quality and excellent coverage of the launch. Thank again! Excited for next time. I'll be watching live.
Tim, you don't have to compare yourself to other youtubers. You teach us rocket science! In a way we can understand no less. I mean I've played Kerbal Space Program and get apogee and perigee in orbits. But your enthusiasm for all things rocket is amazing and inspiring. You interviewed Elon Musk even!
Great coverage Tim! Another important step forward, so that's very exciting! It just seems like there is so much yet to go with booster landing and Starship re-entry with the heat shield... I really hope the pace of launch can pick up! Go SpaceX!
This was really amazing to watch live! Thank you so much for all the incredible work you do. I have to watch all your videos to learn more about rockets. You inspire so many people. Much love from Sweden!
I was watching the speed & propellant use on the Starship and it looked like engines were shutdown due to low propellant/not enough velocity, followed by the RUD. For the Booster, I think that there was no issue with the Hot Stage, but I think the blast stream from starship damaged the booster engines due to vearing away too quickly.
@@FutureAIDev2015 Watch it and tell Me what you think. Could have been a telemetry issue, but the Bar Graph for the propelant Methane/LOX was very low. The final velocity should have been around 27,000 kph.
@@FutureAIDev2015 I think that I would personally chalk it up to the newer engine designs combined with the older SS design. I seem to remember that E want's to add ring to SS to carry more propellant going forward. The fact that they had no plan to soft land off of Hawaii, could have also been a clue.
Tim, you mentioned that you need to have some pre-planned things to say and do when watching a launch. May I vote "no" on that? Please? =) One of the things I love most about you is how real you allow yourself to be. The freezing, awestruck moments, the giddy and jumping up and down out of control moments, etc. This allows me to live vicariously through you. You convey my enthusiasm for space exploration so accurately. Thank you for keeping it real.
Make a note of the audio levels at around 7:25:30. Great audio settings imho. Perfectly struck balance in terms of your commentary and what SpaceX had to say at the same time.
Tim: At about 17,100 kph on your stats banner (lower right), I distinctly heard Mission Control report “loss of signal”, but neither you nor anyone at MC said anything for about 2 minutes after that??
I pulled an all nighter just so I didn’t miss IFT-2 and I’d say it was worth it! Can’t wait for IFT-3! Congrats to the SpaceX Team! Also, this is #1 on Trending here on RUclips as of now!

An incredible achievement. But it really puts in perspective the brilliance of the Apollo program. They didn’t have half the technology SpaceX have. I look forward to bigger and better things to come. Thank you.
Well, the Apollo program was literally an unlimited Fed Govt budget while Spacex was just Elon, an aero engineer who couldn’t get a job with the Big Boys and a mariachi band that had no funding just 20yrs ago…

I just realized the water deluge system is basically a giant rocket bidet system.
3000 psi bidet 😅
I need that after a taco bell session
Super Heavy Booster Bidet System (SHBBS)
I think Tim called it a booster bidet at one point during the Q&A right before the launch.
I hope this makes it to regular jargon.

To me, it looked like the hot stage put a lot of extra rotation into the booster. The RCS is fighting the yaw hard, and there are a few long "burns" trying to stabilize the trajectory.
My guess is that it was getting close enough to the range of boundary after separation that the FTS was tracking input and result, and it was far enough out of position that it was physically unable to provide sufficient thrust in the correct direction to push back into the range.
That long leak looking streamer is a thruster at absolute wide open, trying to push, but it wasn't moving fast enough so FTS came online

I will always watch your live feed (within my ability in Hawaii) for future launches. Thank y'all for not only all the hard work, but also all the excitement, enthusiasm & energy you bring to all of this. 👍
I'm thrilled watching from Malaysia congratulations...
ALL 33! I know the hot-staging was the big deal here for a lot of us but for me I was mainly focused on whether we would get a full burn and a SUSTAINED burn and we did! All 33 burned all the way up to MECO - absolutely stellar.
So happy you guys were there to see it!! What a day!
Thanks Tim and MaryLiz and crew for the awesome stream. Great reliving this moment online with some great people ❤
That liftoff was a beautiful sight!
Hi, amazing coverage, I had 2 screens going: one for SpaceX, one for you all! The more the merrier. Big thanks to all involved. You did a marvelous job. Keep on keeping on. Wonderful and much appreciated. I was in sixth grade when the teacher had a TV in our classroom so we could watch Alan Shephard become the first American to go into space on his suborbital flight. I've been watching our progress into space as much as possible since then. I hope Tim, you'll be able to narrate your experience live when your turn comes to go round the moon. Wow!
I'm going to take this opportunity to say that your footage of this launch was lightyears ahead of SpaceX's Twitter livestream coverage. It's almost embarrassing for SpaceX that they couldn't even compete with you, but at the same time a massive congratulations to you for pushing the boat out with your coverage. Thank you so much for this 🙏🏻
I watched this 2 days after and avoided the news stories, no spoilers!
I'm so glad i watched this video first! You are all amazing! Tim and MaryLiz are the most enthusiastic hosts, love you guys!
THE VIDEO! Holy crap! Literally the most incredible thing I have ever seen and again I'm so glad I watched Everyday Astronaut FIRST! ❤❤❤
I am sorry, but that explosion of stage one was awesome. My daughter turns two on Monday. She said “oh no!” Congrats to SpaceX. Keep doing what you are doing.
I bet you're right about fuel flow issues on the first stage. Sad about the upper stage blowing up. It was under a minute from engine shutdown.
I'm excited like Tim for the future of the Starship!
Excellent professional quality coverage, with the human touch. Future generations will look back to this valuable footage, well done
What a fantastic day to be a space fan :)
What a fantastic day to be a human being. Thank you SpaceX & Elon.
One of the few bright spots right now for humanity. Keep it up!
Thank you for approaching this so well. I'm already seeing so many other sources that only mention that the rockets exploded.
I always have trouble choosing between you and Felix. I wish I could watch both at the same time. However you are the start. You didn't get me into rocketry, but you did bring the visuals into my home! I sincerely appreciate it!
*GREAT launch coverage Tim, MaryLiz, & everyone at Everyday Astronaut!*
Can't wait for the next launch. Thanks for your very professional coverage and enthusiasm.
Congratulations to your team on a successful test!
Now imagine mechazilla just restacking the next ship onto the previous booster and retaking it just now - and the whole launch repeat for a tanker and stuff over and over again 😍
Only second or third launch and they got it this far. Unbelievable talent they got at Spacex.
Imagine being able to make it all the way first launch like others. Must be like magic. I know, russians, chinese or india are on another level of quality, but EEUU its really near them. Maybe some day they will get so advanced they even could be allowed to join them on their space stations or other projects.
@@xiro6 You're joking right? They don't exactly live stream their tests. Not that anyone cares how many times they fail with those one use rockets.
Ellie in space has the best audio i have heard of the launch so far, but nice job on the visuals, great stream guys.
Also Jack from NSF got a really clear and awesome shot of the booster exploding.
Awesome! Humans will go to Mars in future using the amazing Starship!
Using it or escaping of?
148km is about 485,000 feet. Huge improvement over first booster flight. Starship separated from booster successfully. I think SpaceX will call this a huge success.
Canadian media is calling it a failure. Tells you a lot about that country.
@@ryanm7263English and Chinese 'media' is also calling it a failure 😂😂
Another example of why the saying" we have to build it, test it on the ground, test it in the sky anything goes boom that we weren't expecting, we go back to the Whiteboard, figure it out, and start over until we get it right" is how you get it right
It's how they got the first humans into space. Neither side of the Space Race had the simulation ability we do now, so iterative testing was what they had to do. And as we see, it works.
Oh my goodness, what a time to be alive!!!
the flame coming out of the booster was incredible , must have been 1000 ft long!
Tim. I have watched you since your beginnings. Thank you for all you do. Watched your broadcast this morning live side by side with SpaceX. Yours was excellent human coverage. Thank you. Elder Canadian here. Friend of Canadian spaceflight engineers. I watched the boys land on the moon live when I was 14. When you told Elon live what was what and he adopted it ... that was large. You do know in that moment you earned your place on Starship. 8-) You are a good man. Here is one issue I have. You and your sidekicks always talk about your amazing team. List them and give them credit. Publicly. They truly are great and you know you would be ZIP without them. Sort that out youngster. I support you. I consider Patreon. You do good work, BUT. Give credit where credit is due. And your moon launch? Fantastic. That is beyond belief. When NASA says its a go. Perfect. You deserve it. And todays Starship launch was literally perfect. I believe they learned from the first time and chose to detonate rather than suffer from 'get-there-itis' (Airline term.) SpaceX learned from the first time and killed them for course correction. Over-correction in my mind. Fair. And then I would finalize: Hot start. Not convinced. Too much stress on both vehicles. You can't just deflect that amount of pressure in that time frame and expect all to get away unscathed.
I agree with your analysis. I think they had to be extra cautious. Because of the government oversight.
I think they should do the hot start later, after they have got it working more conventionally. I know there is Payload gain with hot start, but so much debris flying around, even the starship can get blasted by itself. Maybe I’m wrong, but I am sticking by
Your opinion which is the same as mine, and the reason why is they need to get this thing farther down range to be able to test everything. It is a loss of opportunity not to get a reentry of the starship. That’s a real loss. Not worth the hot start.
@steveperreira5850 I don't think the vehicle was lost because of hot staging tho. Of course we have to wait until official confirmation from SpaceX but the hot staging looked really good
Pointy end and Flamy end have left the vicinity. Cheers!
Crazy exiting launch! Really happy that got to hop in on right before it! Congratulation everyone!
The hot staging actually worked! But relighting those booster engines still tricky though. But third time’s a charm!
WELL DONE! Amazing launch, looking forward to the next one! =D
It's so crazy to think back to when they started building the first stuff for the first-ever Starship. I never thought that would fly, looked so rough, thin, and bad. But dang look how far SpaceX has come. max 5 years and Starship might be able to carry astronauts/people on board
This was amazing!… great coverage EA Team!
Even though Starship Super Heavy decided to be cute and disassemble itself after the separation, still it was better progress than before, none of the 33 engines failed this time. They probably want to tweak with the startup procedure after the fact a little bit just so it doesn't have any blowouts or anything like that.
Definitely better than the first launch.
News Media Headline: "Starship blew up again" ... no comment
I can't stand the media. They all hate Musk and they always try to spin things negative.
It did, right?
@@ultrakeka Yes, after accomplishing all the goals they wanted to reach with this launch. This was a huge success.
Having now watched lots of the streams from this launch, I can honestly say I like this one the best. I have to admit that the one I watched live was the official feed on X. There's was not very good other than providing some authoritative statements, the only excitement was from inside me because of what I was launching. Yours I watched last.
Man! I kept getting chills watching! My excitement climbed back to launch day levels yet I've seen it from so many angles and heard so many commentators. You do the best at bringing that human connection to the presentation. It's just a part of who you are. Keep on keeping on.
AWESOME!! Almost to 100%. Amazing data gathering and more perfection to come. Great job Space X!!!!!!!
Phenomenal images, Tim. Thanks so much.
Did you catch the NASA chase plane circling Starship's ascent? You can see the contrail when you were showing yourself watching ascent from behind.
Gotta say best stream of the launch. Thanks for making up for where SpaceX lacks on the streaming department now xD blown away by the quality and excellent coverage of the launch. Thank again! Excited for next time. I'll be watching live.
I watched from Isla Blanca Park and it was amazing! Bucketlist stuff for sure.
Tim, you don't have to compare yourself to other youtubers. You teach us rocket science! In a way we can understand no less. I mean I've played Kerbal Space Program and get apogee and perigee in orbits. But your enthusiasm for all things rocket is amazing and inspiring. You interviewed Elon Musk even!
7:32:45 the OMG’s start and continue into Max-Q and beyond with the cheering / screaming / wooping being feed into the coverage.
Great coverage Tim! Another important step forward, so that's very exciting! It just seems like there is so much yet to go with booster landing and Starship re-entry with the heat shield... I really hope the pace of launch can pick up! Go SpaceX!
Holy crap that thing went through max q and got into space FAST
She's pretty quick for as big as she is.
This was really amazing to watch live! Thank you so much for all the incredible work you do. I have to watch all your videos to learn more about rockets. You inspire so many people. Much love from Sweden!
I was watching the speed & propellant use on the Starship and it looked like engines were shutdown due to low propellant/not enough velocity, followed by the RUD. For the Booster, I think that there was no issue with the Hot Stage, but I think the blast stream from starship damaged the booster engines due to vearing away too quickly.
So basically the second stage ran out of fuel?
@@FutureAIDev2015 Watch it and tell Me what you think. Could have been a telemetry issue, but the Bar Graph for the propelant Methane/LOX was very low. The final velocity should have been around 27,000 kph.
@@popsracer886 I wonder if the fuel usage suddenly increased far beyond nominal...
@@FutureAIDev2015 I think that I would personally chalk it up to the newer engine designs combined with the older SS design. I seem to remember that E want's to add ring to SS to carry more propellant going forward. The fact that they had no plan to soft land off of Hawaii, could have also been a clue.
Tim, you mentioned that you need to have some pre-planned things to say and do when watching a launch. May I vote "no" on that? Please? =) One of the things I love most about you is how real you allow yourself to be. The freezing, awestruck moments, the giddy and jumping up and down out of control moments, etc. This allows me to live vicariously through you. You convey my enthusiasm for space exploration so accurately. Thank you for keeping it real.
From the official images posted by SpaceX, it looks like the S25 lost/damaged a lot of tiles during/just after liftoff
They've been having trouble keeping the tiles attached, so that's not a surprise. Something they need to work on before they can get a full flight.
Amazing work, @Everyday Astronaut!
Excellent job in the live!
Make a note of the audio levels at around 7:25:30. Great audio settings imho. Perfectly struck balance in terms of your commentary and what SpaceX had to say at the same time.
History has been made!
Congrats Everyday A. crew!
Desire: A commentary video on Scott Manley's launch video.
He's awesome!
Tim: At about 17,100 kph on your stats banner (lower right), I distinctly heard Mission Control report “loss of signal”, but neither you nor anyone at MC said anything for about 2 minutes after that??
I pulled an all nighter just so I didn’t miss IFT-2 and I’d say it was worth it! Can’t wait for IFT-3! Congrats to the SpaceX Team! Also, this is #1 on Trending here on RUclips as of now!
Hello from Real Engineering :)
The separation is achieved this time and that what counts.
..one small step..
..still a lot to go..
Thank you for the fireworks...
8:42:36 raw reaction of them watching the launch!! 🥹😊
And congratulations on over 750,000 people at once watching on here !!!!!!! Humanity has a chance :-)
8:32:06
Love you all love you guys take care and thank you for all you guys do!! This includes the whole community
Amazing as always ...🌏...🔥🔥🔥 🚀...👏👏
An incredible achievement. But it really puts in perspective the brilliance of the Apollo program. They didn’t have half the technology SpaceX have. I look forward to bigger and better things to come. Thank you.
Well, the Apollo program was literally an unlimited Fed Govt budget while Spacex was just Elon, an aero engineer who couldn’t get a job with the Big Boys and a mariachi band that had no funding just 20yrs ago…
That was absolutely thrilling coverage guys
Awesome Work as Usual Now that I found Your feed again !!! You were night and Day above the quality of all other Channels combined ! I have been looking through all the other channels but Yours is by far the Best ! You know when to Talk and when to let The Beauty show itself ! And I am not just talking about Your Co-Host Tim ! Professional Work and Content as usual ! Can't wait to see You Going around the Moon Tim !
7:32:34 launch time
thanks
Your welcome
As launches go, this one has to be one of hte most entertaining I've seen huge rockets,- successes, explosions, dramatic waits...
It's amazing how far you've come since the channel started, Tim, don't burn out!
Well done Elon and SpaceX. Fascinating and inspiring to watch brought tears to a full grown man
great coverage....very encouraged with the progress since the last flight....
hey, thanks for the history show at the end. Most people won't remember this. I'm in my 60s and didn't.
7:39:54 Unexpected loss of signal, Houston.
Anyone else notice how buff Tim is getting!? Obviously the training is paying off...
Again, you are great when you control your emotions and describe to the audience what is happening. The constant giddiness from launch required a mute. Walter Cronkite would not have acted this way.
"Stop being happy!"
