@@spacexsays3227 Lmao you’re one of these people who don’t believe in space travel? So what about the people who watch these launches live and the thousands of phone recordings from different angles?
@@spacexsays3227 The idea of the earth being flat is about as stupid as it comes in 2020. I mean philosophers have had the understanding of the earth being a globe for thousands of years and it’s been generally accepted for hundreds. Now that we have satellites in orbit and the ISS it’s just common fact we live on a globe. Here’s my question though, if the earth is truly flat why would every country in the world, including countries that hate each other all agree to keep it a secret the earth is flat? What do they have to gain, same reason if the moon landings were staged why didn’t the Soviet’s call out the Americans when they only lose by pretending the US got to the moon?
This will work if they have upwind wind sensors say 100m and 50 m upwind of landing pad. so that the booster can calculate exactly how much it will drift in the wind. Wind prediction is key to the precision here. I cant understand why they do not do it landing planes...
It's more like, your car has no neutral gear, but must maintain a certain engine rpm to stay running, so you can never stop with the engine on, you must always drift forward.
@@MCaquaculinaris I mean yeah but pretty sure his team still does basically all of the laborious calculating and simulating and testing and designing etc. for him. That's kind of what it means to be "chief" of anything.
I feel like it will be just like when they landed the boosters - once we see it in action, it'll start seeming less crazy. Once we actually see what their system for doing it is, I bet it'll seem much more feasible.
@@ThatSB The thing is BO booster hovers and still doesn't land dead center like a Falcon 9 rocket. I really have concerns on how the New Glenn rocket will perform when it flies this year. Well they said 2021. Let's hope they keep up to their word.
We had the moon landing in 1969, but even 10 years ago the thought of a reusable rocket seemed impossible. The Falcon Heavy boosters landing together a few years ago is probably as amazing as the moon landing. Now, they have many reused boosters, 9 missions on one is the highest
No, it is nowhere NEAR as amazing as the Moon landing. Amazing yes, but not on par with that. Let me guess......you were not alive for the moon landing. People were CRYING as the flag was planted.
That's gonna be hard for the Starship portion at first because parts of the heat shield melt from the high friction re-entry. Reusing a starship that has a faulty heat shield will bring back the Columbia tragedy. The booster portion will definitely be easier to reuse, but I will give it another 5 years for SpaceX to work out the kinks.
@@jg5001 That's okay. Plenty of controversy without misunderstandings. BTW, The Starship won't be caught...IT has heat shields and landing legs. Who knows if That will change....
at the 9:11 mark when the narrator says, although we may have to wait some more years for spacex to "attempt this 'crazy' idea"... it's amazing to be alive in oct 2024 to see the transition from concept to reality. Kudos to the geniuses that worked hard on this at spacex. btw if ur here in 2024/or after the realisation, do give a loud Hi/shout out 😊.
Engineers: It is impossible. Elon: Well if it is impossible let's try it out anyway just to be sure. Edit: Coming back to this, Elon sure is an asshole. Damn do I regret my Elon stanning days.
I don’t think you’ll have to wait a few years. As of Jan2021, they’re already working in the second booster prototype. I would be surprised if they don’t start testing them this year, even if they have to put legs on the first few until the build the launch / landing tower. They also bought two floating or semisubmersible drilling platforms to modify into sea launch platforms. They must not sleep! Lol.
Amazing to think years ago this was a concept and now todays reality 🎉 congrats to the amazing engineers and staff at SpaceX theyre propelling humanity to the next stage
It's cute watching this video a year later and discovering what they got right and knowing what the tower looks like in reality and not just wild computer animations. 😜 these old videos are part of the history we are all living through.
The cable option seems like the most forgiving in that the target area is larger, and the cables stretching would be a natural shock absorber. If it works the next gen Falcon 9 could do the same.
Elon Musk doesn't have stupid ideas. Reusable rockets, brain machine interfaces, electric self-driving cars, erasing traffic from the face of the earth, flamethrowers and the list goes on...do i even need to elaborate?
Everytime spacex makes a substantial change to the design I at first think they shouldn't and that I don't like it but after a few days I see that it is such a good idea and then I really like it. Already changed my mind since when the idea was proposed. Can't wait to see it XD
@@MrEagle2704-OFFICIAL ........spoiler alert!!!....I'm sorry Eagle but it is all Fakery. But please don't tell the kids.

You'll enjoy watching and reading all the strong-hold followers comments from now on and see who is and who isn't deep into the Space Travel belief. So join me in this hilarious venture into people imaginations and watch them make fools of themselves.
A few weeks ago I was shocked to learn that a video I was watching was narrated by AI. I would not have recognised it as such had it not been made evident in both the info and the comments, and since then I have heard other AI narration and have been astonished at the advances in Text-to-Speech software. And what is your point, you may be asking now? My point is that having become acquainted with the particular peculiarities of AI phrasing, I am convinced that the narration of this video is itself an automated voice. So by the time Starship sets off for Mars it may very well be equipped with its very own version of HAL9000!
I love that phrase, "...next evolution of crazy space ideas"! You've got to absolutely love what SpaceX has done, pushing the envelope and making it dramatically less expensive in material, labor and other fabrication costs. I wish them continued great success. Orion may speed up their development now that Jeff has begun to concentrate his attention as well as resources on it, and they'll benefit from what SpaceX has learned, so more power to them, as well. Two private corporations in the U.S. are doing what no other country on earth can do, and we've only seen the early beginnings of what they will accomplish.
