The enemy of progress is bureaucracy.
and lawfares such as those from Sue Origin.
Exactly and that why we can’t build anything in this country anymore. And now this idiot is rattling on about wetlands at Boca Chica.
If con is the opposite of pro, then is congress the opposite of progress?
@@everettputerbaugh3996 lol it certainly seems so!
Blue Origin, we got more lawyer than engineers.
😂
Well, Blue Origin is definitely in the Launch Business. They are launching Environmental Complaints and Lawsuits. But can they reach outer orbit?
And don't tell me about the Communist Earthworm that they need to protect when it is ever going to be found in the earth. They would probably love to collect the Trillion dollars to protect the Earthworm.
Blue Origin has better lawyers than engineers 😂
I think he's got more yachts than engineers too, otherwise his flying dildos would be producing proper results instead of him just making constant excuses and briefly only barely getting above the Kármán line each launch. For a company that's been in the game for so long, their progress is utterly pitiful.
sad
Blue Origin. A soon to be 25 yrs(!) old Space company that haven't got a rocket to orbit yet 😂👏🤡
space is not real until bezos says so! lol
It's typical of Amazon to try to cripple the competition one way or another.
Yeah, we have been suckered in and the general population should realise that now they have crushed the competition, now they are screwing them.
What Amazon need is good competition, with a good delivery service, no quibble easy returns etc.
With prime we are paying more for less, look at prime with Ads now, that's service degradation for a recently increased price. The main service I use is photo storage, but I am sure I can find something else. It's my wife who wants to keep it for the delivery service.
This smacks of Bezo's fucking ego to me.
Never mind ego, it's disgusting lack of basic ethics.
Yep. Always. He can't stand that Elon's the "cool kid" and he's not.
@@thegood9he set up a book shop, you can't be a cool kid doing that.
All it is. I’d like to respect the guy but I cannot. If BO was producing results and SpaceX was truly hindering them by getting too much capacity it would make sense, but they aren’t.
Always and forever
Maybe Blue should focus less on what Spacex is up to and focus more on putting ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING AT ALL into orbit on a rocket of their own…
what rocket???
@@coodudemanthere's rumors 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
@@Wes4Trump lol well let me start a new one! Elon is going to ride on one of those magic rockets from Blue! He is so embarrassed that he’s kept it secret! (How is this for unsubstantiated nonsense rumors?? Lol)
Maybe Blue Origin should prove they have an orbit capable rocket which is capable of a frequent launch cadence before putting limits on those that can?
I am coming to think there are not enough little blue pills to get blue origin up to an orbital level.
@@GrigoriZhukov I see what you did there 👍
lol Starship can't do that champ
@mervstash3692 yet but likely will.
@GrigoriZhukov
Falcons best turn around is like 10 days. Amd that's after years. When do you think Starship will be able to launch multiples per day?
Limit Amazon deliveries to one truck per city per month to reduce emissions. Bez, Like dem apples?
Sounds fair to me.
It's like a child throwing a tantrum because they are losing a game against a better player lol.
True, but I think the action has a secondary cause. If whining to the government can result in consequences for competitors, then that's something that should be addressed now and not further in the future. I think a new government agency is going to be created just to deal with public spaceports. That way there's a system that makes it so that companies can't play parts of the government off against their competitors.
Thanks AA, I love getting space news from you. You are my go to source.
Thanks so much for your support!!
I've lost all respect for blue origin and bezos. It's pure jealousy
Like he could literally be doing the same shit Elon the Spacerat is doing and have New Glenn ACTUALLY flying if Blue Origin were 100% a legitimate private space flight company, but noooooo.
I wish he’d just stop. He’s an active roadblock to human progress at this point.
It’s jealousy “ my 4” long rocket is small and your footlong massive “ a measuring contest lol.
Blue Origin is managing sightseeing flights, SpaceX is getting people to the ISS and military and civilian sats to orbit.
I'd say when BO finally gets an orbital-class rocket operational, THEN they can make claims against SpaceX. Until then, STFU.
Jealousy has little to do with it. It’s PURELY about money. Bezos is pissed that SpaceX has done a better job than he at obtaining a flow of cash from the government.
@@tyvernoverlord5363 wow! well said!
Blue Origin can’t even lift off the ground!
it can, as long as it neither orbital, nor even suborbital))
That makes them more environmentally friendly.
Lol
They're great in a court room though, and that's what matters 🤡
Really? So what has New Shepard been doing? It goes up 107 km on most flights!
AA...
SpaceX should submit to the FAA a counter proposal to Blue Origins suit:
"If the FAA does implement any of the limitations, be directed solely at SS-SH (Starship Super heavy) operations, then the FAA must implement these same limitations & restrictions to ALL spaceflight company operations active at KSC and CCSFS."
This would include Blue Origin, ULA, Relativity, etc.
"If Jeff Bezos feels that SpaceX Ss-SH operations will be that disruptive, then it is only fair that all other launch provider operate under the same restrictions & limitations."
That's not a problem for Blue Origins - they don't launch rockets anyway. At least, not orbital ones...
No one else is 2 decades away from frequent launches.
This is a bit of disingenuousness on your part, in large part because it is a false equivalency fallacy. The problem is that the other rockets, even the massive New Glenn, are NOT anywhere near as large as the proposed version of Ss-SH, that, as pointed out in the video, is going to be much more massive than anything flown out of Boca Chica to date.
The other rockets are well-characterized or are much smaller than this. The detonation on the pad or at landing of Ss-SH can produce an overpressure shockwave that can cause much more serious damage to nearby launch pads and other infrastructure, so everyone MUST evacuate those places and take shelter where with say, a Falcon 9, they don't, and can keep working most of the time. Even a medium-heavy rocket like F9 can cause problems when there's a pad explosion as happened 9 years ago with the flight 29 AMOS-6 fueling in preparation for test firing. That caused damage to waterlines that had the nearby crews of ULA's SLC-41 not reacted quickly, it would've caused a severe delay for the OSIRS-REX launch.
@@Starshipsforever Nope. The statement that even a fully fueled Starship explosion on the pad would be anywhere near destructive as the bomb dropped into Hiroshima in WW2 is just misinformation. Straight up false.
lol you might want to rethink your logic there champ. That's clearly what Bezos is asking for.
You're bringing "I'm not fired, I quit" logic into this.
Blue Origin
“When you can’t compete, hobble the competition.”
How? There is no litigation here. If so, please cite which court and jurisdiction an injunction was filed in.
@@thomasackerman5399 BO filed a complaint with the FAA over Starship launches, citing environmental concerns and impact on neighboring competing space companies. It's still legal action. So even though it's not a lawsuit, Sue Origin is still befitting.
Blue Origin - the Tanya Harding of space companies (if you can't skate better, just try to break your competitor's legs).
Not a lawsuit - yet, but Bozo just makes himself look like a clown,
when he tries to slow his competition down!
@@wezleyjackson9918 No complaint was filed. It was an open to comment and ULA also agreed and filed a similar comment, along with suggestions to mitigate it. The FAA is not in any way obligated to implement anything. The environmental concerns ARE about the impact an exploding Starship stack would have on everyone and that companies would have to evacuate and stop work while waiting for launch and landing ops to finish up before going back in again.
So, given that the FAA is not legally obligated to take action, and no court injunctions are filed in any jurisdiction, calling it lawfare or litigation of any kind is dishonest.
What I do see here is very disturbingly cult-like behavior from SpaceX fans who blindly have created a false narrative and not actually read the Blue or ULA comments. But that's what Jordan is grifting off of.
@@thomasackerman5399 My reply got dropped because i included urls but basically other websites are publishing articles using language like 'complaint' and 'legal action' - so it isn't just Jordan/Angry Astronaut perceiving it that way.. But you do have a point - it is a formal comment as part of the EIS.. It's just that last year BO look legal action challenging the Lunar Starship award for Artemis.. So there is a pattern there and hence why people are framing things like they are... Proposing launch rate caps on a long existing and well-established facility with the highest launch rates (KSC) - a government launch facility a that caters well for vehicles larger than Saturn V - that is what myself and others are perceiving as 'Lawfare'...
Hopefully the FAA puts it in the round file, where it belongs.
It is an environmental problem. SpaceX is creating an environment where Blue Origin continues to look like a joke. Why don’t they focus on getting off the launchpad rather than trying to prevent others from doing so.
what on Earth are you talking about? they've gotten off the launch pad just fine on all four tests and the last two have made orbit and reentered
.....???
@@EricSchenkelberg LOL, what are you talking about?
Try reading his comment gain, he's talking about BO getting off the launch pad, not SX...
@@EricSchenkelberg I think you misread my comment.
I don't get why BO has been so useless. Dr. Evil has the money to build stuff and launch rockets. Why is his company incapable of at least trying to develop something? Space Exploration Technologies Corporation has shown the whole world that you can have a ton of rockets blow up during testing and still develop reliable working systems.
Starliner's not so much an escape capsule as it is a leaky lifeboat.
You misspelled Starleaker

Bezos can kick rocks. Why can't we work together.. not going to get into politics but it seems all these powerful people want to 💩 on the good guy.
More importantly, how can a company that is NOT EVEN LAUNCHING, make any flipping complaint about anything? Bezos, just work on your freaking rocket. Build engines, get to orbit.
Please gov, reduce our national ability to compete in aerospace on an international level so that we can have more time to figure our company's sh-tuff out. Please
Jordan, these are some great graphics. Well done to your artist and director for that stuff. It is certainly appreciated and not taken for granted.
Stop talking about blue origin as they have a working rocket, it's all projects and intentions
You can say that about 99% of the space industry. Eg Starship is realistically 1% of the way to becoming a working moon transfer module. So what's the difference between 1% & 0.5%?
@@mervstash3692 no problem with that, just talk about it in the correct way.

“You come for the king you better not miss”
bezo looks like a over rich villian from a bond movie
how about Dr Evil?
"Hundreds of starlink satellites ... ". Now there's a man living in the past!
It's been something an ill tempered week in the space industry. I'd like to see each launch provider focus on their own business and support the same fair and equal regulations across the board rather than making the snarky comments designed to gain advantage for themselves.
Boca Chica is also the test site, I very much doubt once Starship is online that they'll be looking to do development ans/or test launches from the cape when they have Boca Chica for that.
It seems inevitable that Super heavy land someplace downrange to maximize Starship's payload to LEO (or further).
This is exactly what I was thinking. He's ironing out the problems and issues on a site that won't hinder another pad. Before falcon ever flew from Florida, it's was proven elsewhere.
@@Wes4Trump indeed and it took work for Nasa to be convinced to allow it. Nasa will want to see everything ironed out before they give the okay to SpaceX to launch Starship from the cape and SpaceX is on track to do that.
@@Jadefox32 as it should be done. Everyone in the situation knows what they are doing and the rest sit on their phone and try to tell the people actually doing something how it should be done lol.
Spectacular graphics!! Thanks.
love the "test payload" being a wheel of cheese..
Rumor has it that a great fondue was observed on re-entry.
"force SpaceX to pay for interruptions in normal operations of other companies" doesn't just mean that if SpaceX blows something up and damages someone else, they have to pay for it. It means that if a normally scheduled launch requires another pad be cleared, SpaceX has to pay that company for whatever they claim they would have done during that time (and you can bet that they would be very creative in documenting their 'losses')
Lol yeah - But BO will have to get their launch cadence above 0 to cash in ;)
@@wezleyjackson9918 actually not, all they would need is to show that they had to stop 'work' (however they define it) during or around a SpaceX launch window to claim that the launch interfered with them.
@@davidelangMusk has lawyers that could investigate that. You have to actually show proof of losses.

Competition can be brutal .
Looks like Starship should move launches off shore out of FAA juristiction!
You have no understanding of how FAA regs work. FAA regulations relate to US citizens. Geographic location is no escape from FAA regs. SX REQUIRES an FAA license for ANY launch or re entry operation ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! That's US federal law, and it clearly spelled out on FAA.gov, read it. Inform yourself before posting misinformation.
@@brianw612 That's just the US tradition of trying to impose their laws outside the USA.
@@paullangford8179 US Federal law relates to US Citizens, where ever they happen to be. This is not my opinion. SX could be shut down for non compliance.
@@paullangford8179 Rocket Lab NZ had a launch mishap. That anomality was investigated by the FAA because RL parent is RL USA. US citizens subject to FAA regulations ANYWHERE!
US pilot flying you to Europe are subject to US law when they cross over. Geographic location is not an escape.
My company (that does the same thing only operating extremely infrequently) is in danger of being outcompeted, please limit the better competition so I don't go broke. Thanks FAA.
I stay angry about the Kessler Syndrome. Kessler could happen in our lifetime. If LEO becomes unusable, then we'll have to go to 1200 miles up for MEO. Let's hope and pray that never happens.
Russia will cause a Kessler Syndrome and will destroy the submarine cables of the Atlantic to cut communications from Europe to USA, they reported 40 Russian ships locating this cables on Portuguese waters.
Not only will it happen, it will be done intentionally by a country that gains little from space in order to deny low-Earth orbit access to its adversaries.
At this point, the completely untested New Glenn is a bigger risk of causing damage than Starship which has already flown several times.
The engines have been tested in a ULA rocket, no?
Yea, maybe a good SpaceX response would be to recommend that all non-tested new rockets perform at least 10 flights at other spaceports before they can launch from KSC. What would Blue Origin do then?
@@bgovero5516 New Glenn doesn't launch out of KSC. It launches close by at SLC-36 in Cape Canaveral. But NG, while bigger than F9 or Vulcan, isn't anywhere near as big in size as the variant of Starship that's going to be flown out of KSC. The explosive potential is therefore much less and can be managed without evacuating the surrounding areas with each launch attempt.
Also, the answers from the peanut gallery in this comment section are childish and pretty ignorant. Has anyone actually read either Blue Origin or ULA's comments? Do they even realize there's no litigation involved here? This is a legitimate comment that was solicited by the FAA from all affected parties as a result of the EIS filing from SpaceX for Starship ops at KSC.
@@thomasackerman5399 We still don't like BO [throws peanut]
@@thomasackerman5399I've read the key points and the ULA is concerned with valid reason. BO seems to want to be a thorn in their side (mostly). Bezos has tried to keep Musk in court for years now.
Not decommissioning satellites defective could be perceived as passively weaponising them.
Every starlink satellite decommissions and deorbits themselves at end of life.

Thank you for being angry about space! Have a nice weekend!
Jeff who?
SpaceX...We have more devotees. We promise the Moon. What has Blue-Origin ever promised You? lol.
Off world energy and pollution intensive processing and manufacturing I guess?
I used Google Earth to look at Cape Canaveral and a lot of the launch areas are just abandoned places.
Why would the range give priority to a vehicle that is more likely to scrub? Makes no sense.
Blue Origin choose to litigate. And do the other things. Instead of going orbital.
If only Starship worked as good as the CGI.
Here's hoping for Blue Origin to to have a success like the Russian N1.😎

Bezos! stick to delivering parcels mate!
The ship will labd on the megazilla at 9.8m per sec per sec so it will crash to the ground
Like with much things in life, the more lawsuits they throw at them, the better they get at tackling them. So in the long run they're probably doing spacex a favor.
at some point the courts are just going to start tossing out bezos cases against spacex as frivolous and malicious.
i do wish Bezos would just go away ..all he has is fairground attractions... but a greedy man with his snout in the trough cannot help himself ..
Greedy? His space endeavours are all self-funded. Quit his position at Amazon to personally oversea them. No begging capital investors in continuous rounds of fundraising.
@@mervstash3692 What does he have to show for it all? Space X got America back in the game, Space X provides the DoD with capability that only they can because ULA is being strangled by Bezos, Starship is a maturing system whilst Bezo's team haven't even started producing one test article for their version.
@tyvernoverlord5363 what have they achieved? Quite a lot. At a fraction of the cost. Whilst SpaceX has been blowing up Starships left & right failing to achieve anything that hasn't already been done 60 years ago, BO has been quietly buying up companies, developing and testing real working solutions & technologies. To the point where NASA awarded them the contract for Artemis 5. At this rate, it's most likely going to beat Artemis 3 to the moon.
@@mervstash3692 Have had a significant flight regime? NO. Buying up other companies and getting to be a monoply is cool, but not actually flying is lame.
Stop being idiotic.
You know who blew rockets left right and center like out of style hotcakes decades ago? The U.S. DoD and NASA/The NACA.
@@mervstash3692 Gobbling up companies isn’t a space flight program

There is a beach inside the ISS right? I mean, the word stranded comes from the german word Strand for beach.
This kind of shit is what makes me hate Blue Origin. They tried to do this kind of shit a decade ago by trying to pattern landing a booster on a barge and demanding SpaceX to pay them for landing on drone ship. Good thing they lost the case.
Why would they need more independent agencies assessing environmental effects? You’re suggesting more needless red tape? Give me a break.
7:42 Yea as long as it goes both ways. IOW if BlueOrigin skrews up does SpaceX get compensated.
Does FOBO provide an adequate response to these Red Herring concerns?
Launching nukes and detonating them in Space which the USA did back in the early 1960s is actually quite a deadly weapon #atomic_bulletin

Punching/burning holes in the ozone layer?
Man I’d be sick of the baloney space x should threaten to launch from Yucatán
So, how many acres will we need for a space landfill?
While the KSC Florida push back by B.O. could be a delaying action, it could be raising a few valid questions. Making Space X develop a better more robust launch tower plan, infrastructure and more finalized version. Many of the concerns are about 2-3+ years in the future launch/recovery issues. Like scheduling flights between multiple launch providers, including its own falcon 9 series. Possibly making KSC Florida Starship launch facility support mainly manned launches and weekly satellite deployments. This would make Starbase Texas the unmanned launch, cargo, refueling, and development test site. Maybe upgrading Vandenberg or other California launching sites. We know Starship build 3 requires a more substantial base and a taller 30 meter tower, NASA may want a gantry system for easier manned access to Starship.
I hope Space X and for example Sierra Space(Dream Chaser) can collaborate to make an ultra low cost space taxi for flight crews. Allows flight crews to launch and return to ground, while more complex and time consuming operations occur in space, like orbital refueling, or simply swapping crews.
If they are to hold SpaceX liable for damages to other launch providers, then those launch providers must also be held reliable for damages they may cause other providers, including SpaceX.
22 launches at 3x a day = a week. Not sure what the deal is.
The origin is a space company that doesn’t go to space.
Are they just gonna talk forever while holding others back? Lame.
Starship development and testing is what Boca Chica is for and will continue to be for. I assume all these rules and regulations proposed by Blue Origin would apply to ALL the spacecraft companies operating at the Cape not just SpaceX.
False equivalency. Unless those companies are planning on flying rockets as big or bigger than Starship, it won't. New Glenn is the next closest thing in size as is SLS, and they're much smaller than the version of Ss-SH that SpaceX is planning on flying out of KSC.
Come to Australia, no worries mate:)
SX still needs an FAA license for launch or re entry down under, or anywhere else on this marble.
I wonder if they need a FAA license on Mars one day.
Yet one more readon to established an off-shore launch system.
The Blue Origin is a space company that doesn’t go to space.
Are they just gonna talk forever while holding others back? Lame.
Blue Origin has the same energy as hippie trippy new age yoga practicing yuppie American women slurping down Pumpkin Spice, Boba Tea, Matcha, that horrid green health drink powder, “cleansing” smoothies, and other fads whilst talking about “energy & vibes” along with “manifesting abundance”
Fake people, who are so easily punchable
He wants the rules put back in place that were relaxed for SpaceX 2 months ago. No biggy.
SpaceX development model is described as rapid iteration while blue origin is design first and then build.
I see people say even after SpaceX get starship to launch and land its still a long way off from being a 'complete' rocket with life support and all that jazz.
However wouldn't you think they have another set of teams internally that are taking the most recent starship cad models and designing the proposed internal systems? Obviously not as flashy as a rocket prototype since these things are probably mostly cad models right now.
Why assume development is linear.
Hey Blue Origin, how about build a rocket that can launch more than twice a year and has a purpose other than giving rich people a 10 minute ride prior to pretending you have a reason to exist.
When a gas tank is full of fuel, it can't explode, because the fuel is not mixed with oxygen. That's what a carburator or a fuel injector on a car engine is for. You hear about car fires every now and then, but you almost never hear about a car's gas tank exploding. The only way it can explode is if the gas tank is full of oxygen, and if the remaining gas has mixed with the oxygen.
But when you light a container full of gas, what do you get? A fireball, not an explosion. And the only part of the gas that burns is the part that is exposed to oxygen.
This is why the Hindenburg Zeppelin burned up in 1937. It was full of hydrogen, but it didn't explode.
I had to laugh at the idea of starship lifting off three times a day 😂😂😂. Somehow, I don’t think that’s going to be a problem.
What is the background soundtrack?
You know what, you guys FAA, Bezos, ULA you are all right.
Elon, close all operations, jobs, technology development, taxes, everything and move to, say Mexico, Guiana or Belize. Let the Congress chew on that.
Next time a Starship achieves another milestone people will chant Arriba, Arriba! instead of USA, USA.
Belize is one of the best places for U.S. citizens to retire. Lower cost than most places, a decent infrastructure and health care system, and that wonderful climate. I'd like to go there to retire and watch Starships launch all day long, every day.
SX requires an FAA license for launch or re entry ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!
You must be working for the Fas
If hls was built with aluminium instead of steel it would weight more than two-thirds less (empty), no re-entry so no need for steel tiles or wings, prob not worth the extra dev, but it would sure cut down on the number of launch’s for lunar flights.
you rock man
Im sorry but how does Blue Origin count as a launch provider? They are basically an expensive hobby rocket company?
Jeff Bezos is just so petty, and a sore loser, really. And yet, every time i really think of the guy, i get this mental image of him wearing an orange jump-suit mopping floors in a prison setting ? It's really weird !
Starship has stalled, it's development is too slow for Artemis. Doubt it will ever be human rated for propulsive landings without escape mechanism.
IFT4 flying in Columbia's fail state with plasma ingestion and annihilation of the space frame, and successfully completing the test article flight despite that damage and keeping ALL instrumentation and flight controls intact; is stalled development?
They got several ships and boosters ready to go, several being tested, several being completed, redesign work being accomplished, more development of Boca Chica being conducted.
I'm not Musk mega fan McMaga #1, but come on dude. Don't be disingenuous.
Bozo can sue the weather man after the next hurricane 😅😅😊
It doesn't even matter if Sue Origin has a point. Before they have managed to orbit at least three times, any complaint from them should be entirely disregarded, until they can be considered a launch provider.
No, that's worse than illogical and stupid, if they do have objectively legitimate points and recommendations. And ULA has also made similar comments, and they do have a very considerable amount of orbital launch experience as well as many more launches in legacy terms from its parent companies.
This was no accident
SpaceX (Starship's) launches are different in that they're...... successful.
Blue Origin should be sued for posing as a rocket company.
Why when they've actually launched several different large rockets, including one type that has reached space almost two-dozen times? Six times now while carrying humans aboard.
A product of their's, BE-4, is not only one of the largest engines currently available, but it has almost flawlessly performed on a launch to space just 6 months ago.
And there's no lawsuit or other litigation here. This was a public company comment solicited by the FAA over an EIS filing by SpaceX! It has no legal means whatsoever to make the FAA do anything. Same with ULA's comments.
I don't think the outcome of the complaints will be what any of the companies initially want or expect. I think that our government might just create new bureaucracy or have Space Force take control of the launch pads.
While I'm sure there are technological barriers to doing it, I think it would be neat if all the rockets launched from silos and the cape could be covered in concrete. It would be like a scifi spaceport.
Haha might see you then in Aberdeen lol
We are still in the middle of our CoD4 plot. MW2 satellite attacks not here, yet. -_(0,0-.)
> Starship would make too big of an explosion if it blew up, so they should be banned from launching more than once a week
how does launching less often make the explosion smaller, idiots?
These kind of people, Bezos included; have small puny minds
Because you have to evacuate the radius of the explosion. Evacuating X miles around once per week is already a lot, thrice a day is just too much. Besides we're not there yet.
Blue, why don’t you reach orbit before opening your mouth
This could actually help convince the government that they need to allocate more land for launching rockets.
Maybe starbase will become the gateway to mars afterall.
The solution is easy and obvious: revoke Blue Origin's right to operate at Cape Canaveral.
Why? That's childish and solves nothing.
@@Starshipsforever That's because these people ARE children. Most of them don't realize there's nothing here involving litigation, and the FAA is not in anyway legally obligated to fllow them. On top of that, what craigdellapenna stating is tortious interference by the definition under U.S. law.
On top of that, ULA has also filed a similar comment and if you try and do that to a company with serious military connections and value, well, you might wind up getting into a lot more trouble!
