- Опубликовано: 16 июн 2021
- As space becomes more accessible to private enterprise, many companies are hoping to make it not just possible, but affordable to put objects into orbit. Now a startup called Astra is on the verge of launching rockets at a fraction of the cost to competitors, potentially starting a new era for the business of space.

Its not called falcon superheavy tho its literally just superheavy and starship with the whole system together also being called starship. For one starship uses totally different engines and it uses completely different fuel
100 years from now we'll look at all these small satellites like we look at plastic in the oceans today... It's only a matter of time.
How much did they pay u for this commercial lol
Why are you telling lies? SpaceX built its space rockets on the US taxpayers' money. The US Government transferred billions of dollars of taxpayers' money via NASA to SpaceX, which is owned by a foreign national. And every time NASA uses SpaceX rockets built on taxpayers money, NASA pays SpaceX again - tens of millions of dollars for each flight. And other space oligarchs get billions of taxpayers dollars from NASA as well.. Taxpayerrs are paying for the space rockets, but those rockets then become property of spac oligarchs. And someone is preaching in the comments about increasing transparency with private businesses taking over. Wake up! SpaceX and Bezos companies are LLCs- they all are limited liability companies with zero transparency.
Oligarchs go to space not because they want to make humankind multiplanetary species. They go to space for more money to their wallets- search google for "asteroid trillionaires." They will make TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS on mining resources on the moon and asteroids. Behold the new era of new space Oligarchs ruling planet Earth. And do not expect transparency or fairness from them.
how to tell this video was a loooong time in the making:
the script still has Starship as "falcon super heavy" from several years ago
got me super confused, thought i was watching a really old video lol
Was it ever really called “Falcon Superheavy”? I remember the name as going straight from “Big Falcon Rocket” to Starship + Superheavy.
@@njipods but then, rocket lab's neutron XD
@@theodoremurdock9984 Falcon Superheavy was. was it was called in an awkward short period of time between BFR and Starship/Superheavy, they just dropped the 'falcon' form the name for the booster name after realizing the rocket had nothing to do in common with the Falcons and it also was a mouthful
Also weird how they are making it look like all these rockets have the same height. Why even compare them next to eachother if they aren't to scale at all.
Lol, I might have missed it but it's really funny that Blue Origin didn't even get a mention in this video XD
@Biden Sucks You mean like every other private space company?
Yeah as well as many many other companies that also work on this stuff.
0:58
For 1 sec
he mentioned the 2 private companies that do 'regular' missions to space and he mentioned 20 failed companies and 80 companies that also operate in the space. I think it's fair not to have to mention blue origin just because its bezos' if they haven't really managed to set themselves apart from all the other companies in the space
0:20 correction: Elon Musk was not a billionaire when the falcon 1 rocket was launched. Even before he had sunk almost all his money in it he still wasn’t a billionaire at that point
Yes, his net worth was around $160-180M at the time. Far from a billionaire.

Also it wasn't billionaireS having "some success" it was ONE individual having spectacular success while the rest dream and slowly proceed.
@@ik1408 And also dont forget the billions from US military, not just NASA. One correction though, SpaceX is owned by a US national. Elon became naturalized in 2002, same year SpaceX was founded.
@@apark8787 Elon Musk has three citizenships: South Africa, Canada, the USA. By keeping South African citizenship and Canadian citizenship, Musk proclaims his allegiance to those countries. So that, technically speaking, he is a foreign national because he chose to keep his allegiance to two foreign states. This could be overlooked for a regular engineer, who keeps the US and Chinese or the US and Indian citizenship. But it is a completely different story, when a person receives billions of dollars from the Government of Country A, while keeping two other citizenships and proclaiming his loyalty to Country B and Country C.
so basically this is a pitch for Astra? how much do you charge for such a video?
Probably the only company willing to do PR for Bloomberg news. Astras rockets aren’t even reusable.
All of bloomberg's video are created for a specific reason. Like their airbnb video was created probably cause they are shorting airbnb.
Lol we see you Bloomberg!
@@richardwainwright507 as bad as spacetrash is, I assume people are only interested in reusable rockets because they're supposed to be cheaper. If astra causes waste but is cheaper I don't think any companies will care
@@Steezboy3000 That’s true, perhaps the UN can make adding more space junk illegal some day.
So this is basically an ad for Astra

'' ASTRA has announced two different types of models, one small , one big '' how brilliant lols
Funnily Astra's rocket is called "rocket"
cheesy crust is optional.
As long as these "budget" rockets don't leave their last stages up there. That's the last thing LEO needs.
seeing as they are kind of legally required to de-orbit the upper stage, thats not going to be much of a problem

Is interesting that Astra is avoiding 3D printing because other rocket companies act like it’s necessary.
Astra is really focussing on scalability, and 3D printing just is not scalable according to the CEO, as it is too costly & slow.
They currently 3D print some components like engines but are looking to move away from it almost entirely.
I mean terra one rocket proved that 3D rockets were possible when I saw the beautiful gorgous sci fi colors of blue I knew this marked a beginning in the era of 3D printed rockets
“Regular ol’ millionaire” pshhh someone mentor me since they’re everywhere

I can mentor anyone who shows me they're willing to do what it takes to accumulate wealth. I am not a multimillionaire but I am a millionaire business owner/stock market investor/real estate investor. You would need a lot of spare time and a mode of transport. If you are interested reply and I will send you my email. This comment is aimed at Rafael Sanchez only.
Well, here the definition of millionaire means you have a million in all combined assets and by that definition there are actually plenty. I mean most of them are not gonna sell their Houses or farms 🤣

It's easier than you think to become a millionaire with the right tools and mentor, this is nothing but a challenge for me, while also benefitting someone who would otherwise never accumulate such wealth.
Correction. “Falcon Super Heavy” is actually “Starship”.
Superheavy is the first stage of starship, also the second stage is named only starship as whole vehicles, but Elon said that both stages together can be named "interplanetary transport systems" .
@@theOrionsarms :facepalm: it was called the "interplanetary transport systems" back in like 2016. Now the entire system is just called "starship"
@@ericschmitz03 in this year Elon Musk tells in a interview that whole system is still named ITS at least in some internal SpaceX documents, so apparently interplanetary transport systems it's still a thing, but maybe means more than the rocket also whole infrastructure from the floating launch pads to orbital refueling operations and even propellant production on the Mars or other places.
I love how the script fits in with the background music! Amazing editing and video :) Thanks for sharing this!
CEO: We want to launch a rocket everyday
Reality: They launched one rocket in 2 years that blew up
They launched in two years, it took seven years for SpaceX and they blew the first three rockets ;)
It’s no different than air travel! In the early days, if you look at some of the black and white movies there planes crashing all over the place. Your going to have planes crash every so often whether human or technical but that how you innovative and improve your safety standards
Which is better SpaceX or Blue Origin?
SpaceX has a competitive advantage over Blue Origin when it comes to helping NASA return to the moon. A version of the SpaceX Starship won out over the Blue Origin Blue Moon and another design by Dynetics for the first lunar Human Landing System (HLS).
2:55 It's called Starship, not Falcon Super heavy. Super heavy is the name of its first stage, not be confused with falcon heavy.
Yet another shining example of public-private enterprise: the public carrying the costs of research and development for decades, and the private profiting from the former's investment.

Wonder how long Astra will last.
Bezos and Boeing and Elon no run for ad astra
Hopefully a very long time! It’s was same when airplane first came out! They were big and bulky! Now we have ✈️ that are small as human hand in the old there were literally only a few airline companies now there 100 of airlines companies out there! This is how economy begins with just big boys in game then a long come new contender this is how we will create market competition!
as a sci fi nerd this is what makes it so amazing to see and seeing how space is getting cheaper every year people say that putting money into space is a waste of taxes however that is false and it's making meaningful impacts on our world, from studying cures, cancer, materials, newer effiecient engines, studying flames, etc whatever you can think of it makes me very excited and happy, and yet people critisze that space will only be for the billionaries yes that's true but only for now if you haven't study history than you should obviously know that in the 1920s and 30s airtravel use to be only for the very wealthy until it got cheaper and pretty much even the average person can affort it this will happen for space and we are getting their were still in early development phase just like that of early avation for space. in 2040 if I rememeber space will be about 95% cheaper than today if you account for other technologies besides rockets like space planes, sling shots, etc
Supervisor: look guys, this is not rocket science, now get this thing launched!
Temp: scratches head
I'm going off memory here but pretty sure main advantage of Astra would be being able to effectively launch from a cargo container and so offering any orbit versus rocketlab and its two launch sites. Idk why rocketlab doesn't go that route since they already have a small launcher. They're trying to build a heavier launcher, I think they realize they won't remain competitive possibly with all these startups and are so moving up the chain.
Thanks for including neutrons actual rocket exhaust sound in that clip. That’s a fun pull for space nerds

No such thing as a Falcon Super Heavy... Such excellence in journalism.
this is affecting our weather- this planet really don't want us traveling into a situation to hurt this planet.
The smaller companies mean nothing until they prove they can get into space reliably. It's easy to setup shop and start building things, but that has zero value if you aren't launching. 98% of these small companies will run out of funding before they get even close to reaching space, which is sad. But you have to get to space and then build a business around it. You can't do it the other way around.

While I applaud the efforts to make space cheap enough for the average person to get flights into orbit, this has a huge downfall of making the Kessler Syndrome a much more likely scenario. Both governments and corporations around the world need to step up and create a world-wide effort for the research and development of proper retrieval and disposal of space debris.
Great job Chris!
This is more about Astra.... SpaceX already has reusable rockets all they have to do is lower costs(to fuel costs) and this company will not be viable.
A lot of big talk about small prices coming from a company yet to successfully launch a rocket.
I find much more confidence in Rocket Lab’s proven business model, with a track record of 18/20 successful launches
First thoughts is "WALL-E in space". There must be some norms before it is too late.
fortunately, in the real world nothing just stays in orbit, unless you actively reposition a satellite into its proper orbit, gravity will eventually pull everything back down to earth so worst case, if the WALL-E space scene becomes real then all we have to do is wait a few decades for thing to start to clear up again
This seems more like an ad for this space company. How much did bloomberg charge to make a vid?
This isn't now(new), we've been in space for as long as I can remember!
I like this long form ad. Cannot afford the product, but I can use this as a case study in marketing.
Pretty cool. I’m not sure why Astra is launching from Kodiak, Ak. High latitudes take more energy to get to space. Also, logistics of getting people and rockets to Kodiak is a PITA. I used to go fishing out there…..
5:16 what planet are these rockets launching from?
6:22 why does he sound as if he drank a full bottle of Jägermeister?
I thought the equator was better to launch from or alaska launch is for a special reason or polar orbit or something? Why Alaska?
Interesting BUT... I hope they have some plans to prevent space debris, as well as there must be some kind of sattelite certication that ensure small sattelites always are removed from orbit and their debris. What we do today have a big impact on the safety of future space travel and things can go really bad the day things start to collide in space and parts break of and become more debris and more and more more more.
I'm so excited... we'll do the City space..

Why do these people speak like they are forced to speak on gunpoint?
my question is when these tiny satellites burn out and crash back to earth. Will they deal with that or is that actually very dangerous. Could it harm people?
2:14 "if you make a lotta something the cost comes down" practically true everywhere, as more is made the overall value decreases due to less scarcity
He's talking about economies of scale
@@hashim9882 Exactly
So these smaller satellites, full of toxic metals, will burn up in the atmosphere. And what do you think that means for the atmosphere?
I feel like launching the space shuttle off a plane was a great way to get a small rocket into orbit. Would probably improve the costs if it was done right and the rocket would already be through the thick of the atmosphere before using any of its limited fuel supply.
In 1967 between US and CCCP 139 space launches happened(not all of them successes). That is a record that remains unbroken to this day, last year saw 114 launches and launch attempts for example. The minimum was 54 in 2004. Puts this "new space race" into perspective, doesn't it?
It's one thing for a rocket company to say they want to fly every day, of course they do, it's a whole other thing for them to actually find enough customers for it. For example, who is the biggest customer of SpaceX? Themselves with all the Starlink launches, these make up bulk of their launch manifest and they have the first shell of that already complete, they'll finish it way before schedule at this rate and then what, where is the next killer app for space launches? Or are they just going to loose half their launch cadence because the job is done?
Ultimately it has to come down to space tourism, that's the only way it'll be possible to generate an endless need for more launches.
What exactly is all the stuff that is going to be dropped in space used for..excuse my ignorance...is it satellites used to record/monitor various things on earth and also give people more powerful internet connections?
Yes. You are right. A lot is improved when you can see it from up above. For instance, disaster management systems developed from satellite imagery by a Nairobi startup was able to assist in tracking many issues globally from tsunamis to earthquakes etc. SpaceX is making a constellation for better internet. Etc etc. You are right.
What kind of spiritually-bereft society to we have when this is how our money, time,, and energy is focused while Earth burns and becomes less and less habitable?
Look at where Jack Parsons took the world! He made space travel possible only to be forgotten. I remember you Jack!
more interest on the final frontier at least
The "space" space is launching a case for space based "space bases" based in the housing space in "space".
4:19 what's the name of the software?
Wow I can’t wait for advertising in space
what happens if satellites in orbit increase in number so much that they start to collide though?
Looks (or sounds) like Eric Foreman started a rocket company
Yo more content from Ashlee please, all his series are great.
I would say Astra was gonna change the industry if Starship wasn't close to doing all that and more.
This video seems really poorly researched. First the call Starship the falcon superheavy, then they get the falcon 9 launch cost wrong, and finally they forget that ULA exists.
I see this company as innovative. And I see Astra as a major competitor with China. If I could I would invest money in this company. Because I see Astra paving the way for cost effective rocket building technology in the future.

Try "Starship"

One day there will be so much satellites in orbit that you can’t just launch a rocket to space without making apointments

Elon was not a billionaire when he started spacex lol. Nor when the falcon 1 flew.. Always painting billionaires as bad
Pretty sure he went into debt for the 4th launch, so technically he wasn't even a millionaire.

Yep, will burn up in atmosphere. Will have no effect on price of aluminum. All space payloads (assuming low earth orbit) will eventualy burn up as well.

While I’ve interest in space I’m concerned about the. Amount of space junk this it’s going to create and there doesn’t seem to be much regulation. There needs to be international cooperation on this so at least satellites can be decommissioned safely without being a permanent fixture orbiting the Earth.
I agree- this sort of business thinking seems very dangerous in terms of the lack of reusability, and the sheer accumulation of garbage in LEO. We'll need programs soon to clean up space junk and deorbit it.

this Astra ad brought to you by Bloomberg
They should call their astra rockets Astra Pro (for the small one) and Astra Pro Max (for the big one) 😂
SpaceX was the research/bet i.e financial risk, so it involved billionaires. So they had to prove the concept
Astra just needs to achieve little success. And VC money will start flowing in this space. Of which Astra can take advantage of, as being the first
While more competition is always better, most of the noted features that were supposed to set Astra apart from other companies are already being used by those companies. This video came off like an Astra advert that was released two years late.
