Mars....... LMFAO, yeah sure.
It would be nice that we including the European Union. Build a space station ship yard in orbit. So we can build bigger.
Love what you do
👍
Starship is not actually big, just the biggest yet for our species. Thousands of years ago much bigger spaceships have been here, read your Bible and the Bagavadgita.
I love that Space RUclipsrs all support one another. Surprisingly one of the least toxic communities. Go Starship!
@@wordwizard3912 thats illogical google the word.
@@wordwizard3912 Meanwhile, your stupidity is real
@@wordwizard3912 are u a troll? Cuz if u are serious then you need to reconsider your life
Its probably cuz space community = smart people
@@wordwizard3912 What's all fake? JW
What I love about all these new spacecraft is that they all look like the spacecraft from 1930s comics like Buck Rogers.
True!
thats exactly what I was thinking about
Very Ralph Macquarie, I'm sure its intentional.
@@mokzilla9330 I'm pretty sure it's both intentional and coincidental at the same time. Starship looks how does because of the astronautical and aeronautical physics calculations and simulations done to determine the best and most efficient and cost effective design. So the way it looks is of course intentional. While I never heard of Buck Rodgers or his comics, I can assume he intentionally designed spaceships in them from his imagination. It is actually a coincidence that the actual best design for the real life SpaceX Starship and the ones in those old comics look similar, but it's also very cool coincidence.
@@Mindwipe96 you've never heard of Buck Rodgers?
"Why is Starship so Big?"
To make other rockets and spacecraft feel totally inadequate and deeply insecure?
XD
Time to cancel it feelings matter
@@thebush6077
Ha! Of course, that is what needs to be done. Feelings matter far more than space exploration.
Man I might cry when I finally get to see this thing make its first mission.
@James Quinlan man: i do
The first step is done. As of May 5, 2020, starship SN 15 HAS LANDED!!!
Im sure by then the CGI will be much improved and will give you what you want
@@fkucutube Haha! I'm sure by then CGI will have improved so much that you'll _still_ buy into faked conspiracies.
It's not like some black sheep among "sceptics" don't use CGI in order to prey on idiots like yourself.
Admittedly, I don't know you, but I've heard that CGI argument many times and it speaks for a general position (which is also why my reply is much longer than your comment).
NASA, ESA, SpaceX, Roscosmos etc. regularly use CGI for illustration purposes. Some things are just explained more easily with some nice graphics, starting with the problem that nobody floats in space with a space-suit and a camera in order to capture external ("3rd person view") rocket or satellite footage, so there are very good reasons to use CGI for illustrations, without any intentions to mislead or cheat. The thing is: it's no secret that some footage is highly edited or entirely computer-generated. There is no hiding.
You should also ask yourself about plausibility and motive. It's not plausible that hundreds of thousands of people involved in the space industry do their jobs without a single wistle-blower or death-bed confession over so many decades.
Motive: what I usually hear then is "tax money". That doesn't add up, either. The buildings of these agencies exist, people go to work there, they get paid every month, there is plenty of evidence that all the "hardware" (rockets and facilities for their construction, launch sites, museum objects etc.) exist. All that costs so much money that there is no real profit to be made by stealing tax money (and SpaceX is a private company: they do receive tax money, but only for fulfilling a function and delivering results, like transporting people to ISS).
Now compare all that to the typical alleged "proof" from conspiracy websites: 99% is already debunked, the rest is only a matter of time. But there's another problem: you can buy into a conspiracy out of stupidity or lack of scientitic education, but there are also many "faked fakes" online, where people manipulate original footage for fun in order to fool people like you (to give an example: the deepfake Nixon speech about the moonlanding disaster). So here's the motive for people to make up and spread conspiracy stories: fun! The more convincing the story is, the more it is liked and shared, the happier the author. You think you see beyond CGI tricks, but in reality you're far more of a CGI victim than any people of science. To say it with your own words: CGI gives guys like YOU "what you want". That confirmation bias must give you a lot of satisfaction, right?
@Saksham Shukla I cant wait, will be a historic event.
I saw the title and thought, "Duh." Then you knocked it out of the park. Awesome work. Thank you for what you do!
lol... yeah I am glad to hear that... hope you'll subscribe and join us... this is a good look at what we're hoping to do here on this channel going forward!
@@TwoBitDaVinci
The reason Musk immediately donated 30 millions to schools after SN11 is to avoid lawsuits about contaminating private and public property with the consequences of his eccentric idiosyncratic ideas.
Most people can not save even a million in their lifetime???
@@reasonerenlightened2456 you’re right, he should be normal like everyone else! It’s a shame we have eccentric, idiosyncratic innovators who rapidly progress our technology. I mean, PayPal, Tesla...the audacity of this man, with his successful attempts at accelerating the advancement of autonomous electric vehicles, e-commerce, and now human space flight?!
And it’s especially a shame that he’s donated the millions of dollars that “most people” haven’t saved, to fund and improve their public education. 😂🤦♀️
@@hayleyyn
First, Musk is a product of circumstances, not a driver of destiny. Stop idolising him.
Second, $30 million for a multi-billionaire like Musk is more or less what $9 is for a minimum wage worker.
Tesla, PayPal, SpaceX, etc. are not there to help the human-people, those entities help only businesses by enabling faster wealth harvesting from the lifeforce of the human-people.
What would be really impressive is if one of those multi-billionaires comes up with a politico-economic system which results in a topology of optimal Wealth and Power distribution among the humans to ensure their dignified existence in perpetuity.
(Such multi-billionaire would be a really extraordinary human being worthy of worshiping and idolising.)
Sadly he didn’t. He doesn’t understand how rockets work and got most of it embarrassingly wrong.
@2:37 "The first stage booster is called 'Super Heavy' because of its delicate and fragile proportions" 🤣🤣
I was reading this when it happened.
I don't want a ride on a delicate and fragile booster full of fuel. Nope
Dude, you are the “cat’s pajamas”! That was just an awesome brief on Starship for the lay person. The best I have seen and I have watched many videos. The more I watch you and your presentations, the more I appreciate what you’re doing. For what it is worth, you’re getting better every episode. Thanks for such a great overview of Starship and all of the other presentations you work your ass off putting together for us. Your channel is educational and informative and provides clarity on subjects that often are complicated for those of us that are not necessarily engineers. Well done!!!!
@Mike: that was very well said . Wish I had said it. Came here to say something like that but I'll just agree with you and make reference to "what Mike said" .
Freedom Seven looks like a gnat next to Starship. Quite stunning to contemplate something that big getting launched!
Him: biggest challenge is to get off the ground.
Me: (sits on my couch) if that's the hardest part, it all must be ridiculously easy.
😂 haha lolll
Me: (also sitting on my couch) I understand the challenges
@@precursorsExactly! it’s the hardest part.
lol, it took 5 tries to land
Enjoyed your video. Lots of great information. A couple of corrections. Firstly, the main issue with getting into Earth orbit is not distance from the centre of the planet. It is hard because the mass of the Earth and the density of the atmosphere. This means that you have to punch vertically through the densest part of the atmosphere to get through it as fast as possible then pitch over to speed up to around mach 25 horizontal to the surface of the Earth. Typical low Earth orbit is only about 500 km above the surface. Given that the radius of the Earth is about 6,400 km, the force of gravity at 500 km altitude is not significantly different to that at the surface of the Earth. "Zero G" occurs because you are travelling parallel to the surface at such a speed that the amount you fall drops you to the same altitude, so you remain in orbit. Or, to put it another way, the outward radial acceleration is equal to the acceleration of gravity. To get out of orbit and away from Earth, you need to accelerate to escape velocity. Of course, once you are in deep space, distance from Earth will become relevant and you will leave Earth's gravitational well. Secondly, the payload of Starship is not "thousands of tons", but around 100-150 t.
Hi Mchael, I've been scrolling through the comments. Ricky has replied to comments that came after yours, so it's not clear why he hasn't replied to yours. I just submitted my own comment with corrections, but most likely the window of opportunity has passed. (As in, Ricky probably not reading further comments to this video)
Thanks
5:12 Slight nitpick, 'hundreds of kilometers' isn't really enough to noticeably reduce the pull of gravity from earth. IIRC the radius is about 6000 km, a few hundred km more or less isn't a massive reduction, the reduction of mass from fuel burnt and getting away from the drag of the atmosphere is hundreds of times more significant.
Awesome work. When you mentioned ".... from my aerospace engineering days...", at that point I could sense the quality of the content yet to come. Your simple explanation about the "Tyranny of the rocket equation" is probably the simplest a lay man could understand. Great job.!!!!
Man I hope this happens in my lifetime too, my one biggest thing on my bucket list is to go to space in some form, and Elon is making that more possible every year!
Do you know there are satellites in space called *HIVES*
and inside them are small rockets called *BEES?*
Guess what they *TARGET* your *CELL* phone.
Your *CELL* phone is a Beacon (bee con) and the missiles are its Bees and they
are made to find their *CELLS* and when they do *BOOM!*
Do you remember the RV in Tennessee that blew up?
Find the conspiracy videos showing what really happened.
In them you can see a small missile with a chem-trail behind it.
Now go read the Book of Revelation in the Bible where it talks about the Scorpions stinging people for 5 months.
It's referring to what I just told you above. The author was seeing multiple chem-trails falling from the skies
with little stingers on the ends of them (a scorpions tail).. and the only way he could describe them for others to understand
was to refer to them as *"Scorpions".*
Do yourself a favor go buy shortwave radio walkies-talkies, some of them have a radius up-to 5 miles.
And everyone should start buying phone jammers in-case their neighbors don't know, at least you can help stop some of them.
According to the Bible, they will do this for 5 months raining down on mankind.
Beware world your Government is coming after you in more ways than you know.
Please come to my channel and let me share something really special to you.
Nothing is monetized. Please come.
Let's form a rocket company and do it before he does
@@NwoDispatcher Lol I wish, but I ain't a genius like Elon so I hope you are

@@TwoBitDaVinci thank you for making this easier to understand, the most I know about rockets was from building them in the rocket club I was in, in elementary school😜
"why is starship so big?"
Because "the tyranny of the rocket"

Explains how this helps and what the continued plan is and how they are doing this (engine, cost, etc)

Its called explaining? go search on google for answears instead of watching a vid
Lol what the fuck point do you think you were even trying to make there. Do you even know what the tyranny of the rocket equation is?
you did a really good job on this. Broke everything down, and made it really digestible. Earned a sub right there
Amazing work 😀. This video is so wholesome , almost felt like a short movie
Thank you so much 😀
@@TwoBitDaVinci Where's the Universities and Colleges that train people to bring all this to reality? Is there any recruiters for these specialized jobs? I'm referring to those designing and building these machines, habitats, life support equipment, superfast communication systems, on planets transportation systems, Planetary energy systems? Bathrooms?
bravo ! Thanks to Musk and him crew.Regards to all from Slovenia.
Awesome video man! Oh and by the way at 9:20 the reentry heating ironically has very little to do with friction, but it's the compression of the air that heats it so much (like pumping a bike pump, and you feel it warm to the touch).
Had to pause 6 mins in....love his story telling method and graphics. Just so polished, technical but accessible and just plain relaxed. Proves a clear mastery of the content. As an expert in a different field, much respect to you; watching another expert ply his craft. Thank you 👍🏽
Great video. Loved the production value, info, humour, & a little tiny bit of commentary at the end. Awesome stuff
It's going to be mindblowing to see it in its full stack eventually! Can't even comprehend how tall it'll look when you're standing right next to it. Superb video man! Loved this.
What a perfectly crafted intro! WOW! The whole flick! Well done Ricky! Informative, personal, covers so much and so clearly (as usual from you), really a masterful video.
Glad you liked it James, and thank you for your kind words! My editor in chief Juan reached new heights in this one, lots of 3D using Blender
@@TwoBitDaVinci
By the time Musk gets to Mars, the scientist at CERN would probably find a way to cancel gravity. At such point in time Musk becomes obsolete and space travel will be a trivial matter....and we will have flying cars too. (Cancelling gravity is the way forward. Then we would be able to get in and out of black holes too.)
What a time to be alive. Also so thankful to be able to take part of brilliant content like this, thank you.
Wow that was one of the best made RUclips videos I have ever watched. Very informative, easy to watch and understand, if it was 30 minutes longer I don't think I would have even noticed. Well done, looking forward to exploring your channel.
Very well laid out. Very clear with a lot of complex information made understandable for knuckleheads like me.
Ricky, hats off to your writing and please tell your animator what a great job he had done.
thank you so much, we really appreciate the kind words, this is truly a look at the future of the channel!
@Peter Evans you have lived a very sad life to be this petty.
@Peter Evans sadly this vid got the science embarrassingly wrong.
@@TwoBitDaVinci Keep it going. How about some habitats designs for starter stages and then how it'll grow. How will humans deal with secluded in small habitat(s)? Balloon habitats? I don't think it'll survive a meteor shower. I saw an architect use a gaming software to design habitats and having them connected. Or something like that. I believe it was Fred Mills' B1M RUclips channel.
Next we're going to need Robotic 3D construction workers. How do one get training for that? Gonna need some of these people stationed up there be Engineers/Construction Teams. They can figure out how to build most of what is needed for long haul stays up there. Also some behaviorist scientists too. Who's going to be the chefs, food prep, & cleanup crews? Farmers?
@@robertlee8805 That is what makes up a colony, WORKERS
Very professional work! I appreciated the great take on such an interesting topic, with all the remarks to clear the confusion (Starship, Starship, Superheavy etc.) subscribed!!
Good point on the overhead cost of mission control, etc all playing a part in the launch cost calculation. Pretty normal to only hear about the costs associated with the vehicle, fuel, and payload.
The main thing that the superheavy has to get starship through is the atmosphere, not the higher gravity. Once a starship is hurtling sideways in orbit, there is no atmosphere pushing against it.
Yes, you are completely right. Even 200km up, gravity has only dropped by 6%. He shows the equations, but then never plugs in the numbers to see that his argument doesn't hold.
Just dreams for me.
I am far past my prime.
Enjoyed much. Thank you Ricky!!
Super images and explanations...Everyday Astronaut; thank you, too.
Thinking big picture is uplifting. Quite the adventure once we start doing.
Better use of our resources, better understanding, better life.
Very well done. First break down I’ve seen of Starship with this much information and being entertaining. Thank you.
Loved your vid with Omar!
"First, we burn stuff." Then after 200,000 years of social and technological evolution, how do we get around? How do rockets generate thrust? By burning stuff.
Wait till you see how they generate electricity...
@@gauravtejpal8901 water, solar, wind and hydrothermal in my country.
@@tafftastic The same methods in my country + couple of nuclears. I was talking about Turbines. They spin the turbines either by dropping water on them or by using steam...
never stumbled over one of your videos before despite watching similiar topic videos for a while.. didn't even take 5mins for me to sub, this is good stuff!
I've watched LOT'S of videos about SpaceX and the Starship. This is by far the most accessible and well articulated yet. Good stuff, well done!
RUclips recommended this video to me. Sometimes, RUclips nails it!! :-)
So glad to hear it Sean!!
Same!
WOW.!!! A fleet of Starships, going to Mars, with 500 ppl on board, extra ships for ppl & cargo of thousands of tons & extra fuel tanks for returns.
I don't know how I came across your channel, but I love it. Thanks Ricky
I've loved this video, man! Really good work! I've seen the Everyday Astrounaut's video too. The amount of details are just insane! You're so awsome doing videos about the Starship! Keep going!
Thanks a ton Andre, we will do!!
Always quality content my friend. Keep up the hard work!
Much appreciated Travis, if you think others would like it, we'd love a share!
@@TwoBitDaVinci definitely will, I live close to up in Temecula area. Appreciate all the great information you send out. I have Tesla and solar. Good stuff
Only if Elon Musk van live for 200 years longer we'd have a couple of colonies by then or sooner. And Space Stations that are in our solar system then a dozen or 3 dozen of them out of our solar system.
Ikr!
@@robertlee8805 they can’t send starships out of our systems we would need better tech like maybe anti gravity machine and a propeller in the front as a small source for some electric ⚡️ engines when it is still getting into/out of orbits on the second stage.
Why is Starship so big?
That's a simple and easy answer. They built this city on rock 'n roll.
🤣 underrated comment
Sir...this is a well done video with outstanding commentary!
Just found you. Glad I did. Great contribution here. Thank you
You just earned yourself a brand new subscriber :)
excellent presentation of a very exciting topic!
It's so cool to see someone pushing space exploration, even when it seemed so far ahead, now it feels almost here, the description of the starship launch videos is also something really cool to read, "with the purpose to launch missions through the solar system" that sounds really like evolution, and pretty incredible as well. This video shows how much possibilities will be unlocked when this thing goes operational, awesome stuff.
Great video! Glad I found you! Great content! Cheers!
Using the gravitational equation, even at where the ISI is, you only lose about 12% of gravity. You go up to get out of the atmosphere, you go sideways, very fast, to get into orbit.
Yes absolutely
Than why are iss ppl always flying in almost zero gravity??
@@anilish5005 I know this is a super late reply but if you’re still wondering, imagine you’re falling off a building, when you’re falling, you don’t “feel” gravity, you are going down yes, but all your internal organs are falling at the same rate as the rest of your body, so you don’t notice it, because normally, your organs hang down because gravity is pulling on them, while you stand up, while if you’re falling, your body and insides are stationary relative to each other and therefore you experience “weightlessness”, the ISS is, technically “falling” towards the earth, but due to lack of atmospheric drag and the ridiculously high speed it is traveling at, it goes around it, always falling downward but the curvature of the earth prevents it from hitting the planet, TLDR; falling objects don’t really experience gravity.
the thing im afraid of is when a disaster happens when they descend into mars' atmosphere. I hope all goes well when that first voyage to mars happens
People will die, but there will be multiple un- manned landings before sending people. So hopefully the risk will be minimal.
The risk will always be there no matter what, but I believe there will be test runs on the moon first, and that should be enough to minimize risks.
@@robertfalconer5089 Yep. Just like the Concord. They're still flying those, right? Uh...right?

Beatifully made video, thanks
7:45 "The fairings of the Falcon 9 are not reusable" - ah, ok it's a April 1st video
They gave up on recovery I believe
@@cee8029 I thought they were gonna switch to recovering them from the water
@@cee8029 They only gave up trying to catch the fairing by nets using two ships Ms. Tree & Ms. Chief.
They give up on all their projects. Because its hype. Even the Falcon, was supposed to be 3 stages that land under power. That promise, is why we have privatized space now. The Truth is, we parachute the capsule, burn up the 2nd stage, and the 3rd stage has to fly 10 times to _Start_ paying for itself.
They gave up on Heavy (how many people do you guys give shit, about how awesome Falcon Heavy was _going_ to be)
Hyperloop, the fastest train ever from NY to LA.. is now a few Teslas, being driven in tunnels underneath the Vegas Civic Center.
40,000 starlinks with 2-4 year life span at 200miles up.. is *a rocket launch every 2 days.. For Eternity*
Starship is fantasy. If you really want to see humans back in space, you guys better start thinking critically.
@@bartacomuskidd775 They do recover the fairing... Just saw it at port Canevaral couple hours ago. Projects evolve, maybe in the future we will see a stage 2 recovery. Or they just gonna use Starship for everything(my opinion) maybe they make a smaller version of starship. Since they plan to make it almost 100% re-usable
Definitely glad to find and binge this channel. Thanks algorithm!!
Just stumbled upon your channel, because of _this_ video. I like. Great stuff!
Ricky, awesome video, instant like!
Much appreciated!
Im happy they plan full reusable rocket, as that huge hull floating in LEO would quickly cause problems over time, multiple launches. Just clean up after work is done :)
Brilliant video - really enjoyed it and subscribed!
been following the project and your video is one of the best intro. Thanks
15:54 "Starship Is so big bc... [...] it needs to be..." that got me the chills and made my eyes wet, i mean, the implications...
Wow Brother!
IMPRESSIVE graphics & comparisons... on the Basketball court, Mars station, ...
Some how in spite of finishing lunch... I'm hungry for Astronaut ice cream.
haha me too!
Amazing video! Honestly I have not seen your channel before but this is one of the best videos I have seen covering this awesome topic. Really fun and informative watch!
Wow, thank you!
3:49- that was a pretty good bit
Imagine if there was a "Ultra Heavy" configuration of Starship with 7 Super Heavy boosters and even a "Super Ultra Heavy" one which even has the Falcon 9's first stages as boosters of the boosters! Damn, we might even be able to get to Saturn with this thing.
Apparently at SpaceX they were postulating about the idea of strapping two more falcon 9s to falcon heavy.
We can already reach all the planets, the main question is how much cargo you want to take. A human mission to mars would already take several rockets, the martian (both book and movie) paint a fairly good picture on what it would take. This is also confirmed by SpaceX. So taking a human misson 12 times as far would require a multitude of rockets.
Great Video! I am very excited about the advancements we seem to be making in terms of space flight! I feel like a kid again and we are literally in the future I read about in my old OMNI magazines!'
I totally agree!
Fascinating video! Thanks dude!
Lucky me - - I just found this great channel!
wow really well put content, love your narrative man.
also 16 minutes is too short for me haha maybe you can stretch it out to 25 minutes hahaha.
anyway, love your content keep it up sir.
hello from Indonesia
7:43 they do recover and reuse the fairings
Great content, scripting, editing, and delivery Ricky!
Mighty kind of you Joel and greatly appreciated!
Nice upload and explanation about "Starship". Now I understand why it is a big deal.
13:08 "Degrees Kelvin"? Contrary to the Celsius scale, the Kelvin scale does not use the word "degree".

2:03 The next tallest thing would be in Monterrey, Nuevo León.
Really! Interesting my wife will get a kick out of that. Thanks for sharing!
I love your channel man!
Great episode!
Elon wants to make a future starship with a 18 meter diameter just remember that 😳.
would probably absolutely destroy any launch pad it launches from
@@Live4PLAY3 That's why you engineer a launch pad to handle said event.
@@osian4182 will be one hell of an engineering problem to tackle. I mean, from what I read an 18 meter wide starship will produce about the amount of energy that was released by the hiroshima bomb
Bigger is always cheaper per kg. Early planes were small compared to current.
@@Live4PLAY3 Tue, but this is what Elon is know for. "Electric car aren't viable"? Get your tesla. "You can't reuse rocket"? I guess, I have my falcon 9 now. He is doing it with crew mission to Mars. So if he say he wants a 18m diameter rocket, I'm positive he will eventually
The images of Starships flying to Mars in formation gave me goosebumps. Can we do this, in my lifetime? I really hope so.
@TRUTH _ idk man, I too went down the rabbit hole of western civilization collapsing and decaying, but maybe things aren't as bad and hopeless as some make it out to be. with china on the rise and most of Europe being a lost cause at this point, It would seem reasonable to condemn the world into a metaphorical dark age. however most of the greatest threats facing us and they're leaders are just as fragile as we seem to view ourselves. America at least still has a bit of spunk left in it. our forefathers didn't cross the ocean to an untamed land just to have their decedents loose hope for a brighter tomorrow. in a way, the Starship program is quite similar to the founding of the 13 colonies. A great leap of the bravest pioneers plunging into the unknown and dangerous. And once again America is leading the cutting edge of the free worlds ambitions.
don't swallow the black pill my friend. there is still hope for humanity's great tomorrow.
@TRUTH _ people are waking up. Even if it is slowly. But the people that control the media are pushing a narrative that everyone that thinks like you and me are truly alone. We don't believe them about the propaganda they spew so why should this be any different? Hard times are coming believe me. But I do believe itll be little more then a footnote in history. There'll be a backlash to the political system when things get hard enough for people to not care about what they loose. America tends to wear our problems on its sleeve. And once things get a little less comfortable the people will take action as they always do.
That Tie-Fighter in the space junk part got me fanboy gigly ^^
Mega! Great explanation and graphics!
How have I never seen your channel before?
Not sure but we are changing directions a bit and this is a look at our future so we’re pumped you have found us! Hope you’ll be a regular!
This is a really good video.
Thank You! Awesome video.
Super good! Thank you!
God video, but if I'm going to be picky, Superheavy will never be totally empty 4:50
Dont need to be picky to criticise this vid. He is embarrassingly wrong about how rockets get to orbit.
@@andrewpaulhart yeap. Super heavy doesn’t take starship to hundreds of miles off of earth. Just gets it out of most of the atmosphere. Also doesn’t talk about sideways velocity, where a huge portion of energy goes to.
G'day Ricky, At last, RUclips has recommended a video that I truly like and admire! What a refreshing approach you have to your content. This is the first of your videos I've seen but I'm certain your other work will be as impressive. I'm an old codger; a former member of the RAAF when we were still flying propellor anti-submarine aircraft.
I saw the moon landing, as a kid and this began a lifelong interest in space and all things aviation. Sadly, over the last couple of decades I've lagged behind in my general knowledge of space travel. I mainly lost interest when it looked like NASA would never again go further than low Earth orbit. The new commercial players in the space game were hard for me to keep up with. This video I've just seen of yours taught me more about the latest in space travel than I've learned in the last 30 years! I'm a military historian and documentary maker and I can tell you that you and your channel are extremely professional and easy to understand; the true hallmark of a good communicator. I look forward to catching up on your back 'issues' of videos.
Of course, I've subscribed and 'rang the bell'. Thanks Ricky, cheers and all the best. BH Tasmania

You:Why is Starship so big
Me:To take 100 people to Mars and to the moon and to carry heavy things to Mars and to the moon and to have enough fuel to travel to Mars and the moon.And That's why he is so big.
