Man.. those views from 11:30 onward has me in tears.

Seeing it from this perspective really helps melt away the worries and anxiety of everyday life. What I'd give to experience that serenity from orbit first hand.
It feels so surreal seeing myself at 0:18! (Glasses and “SpaceX” hat). I’ve been a fan of SpaceX for so long, and to be part of the mission now is so amazing and I’m so grateful.
Of course the Engineers of the Booster did an amazing job... but what about those that designed and built that tower? The tower did exactly it's part in all this. Amazing in so many areas.
I think it's amazing that the tower can handle the heat, sonic shock, and blast of those engines on the way up without being destroyed in the first place, let alone retaining the capability of such a precision capture maneuver only 7 minutes later. They seem to have the biggest problems solved. They just need to work out those little issues (like continuing flap burn-throughs) and demonstrate repeatability so we can see some crewed missions in this beast.
@@beenaplumber8379 crewed is not happening any time soon, and will never happen with this configuration. They'll have to resort to some sort of detachable craft that replaces the nose section of starship, that can independently re-enter on a glide pattern. Dreamchaser, scaled up and on steroids.
Unbelievable SpaceX. That was the first attempt and it worked straight away. It's really breathtaking. A very strong performance. A few small things obviously flew off but overall it's amazing that it worked so well the first time. When you see how quickly you're making progress... unbelievable. Sensational SpaceX. Congratulations to the whole team on this incredible new milestone.
I've seen all the Apollo missions, watched Armstrong's Giant Leap, and still remember the excitement and fascination like it was yesterday. This event today brought all of those emotions back. man I felt like a kid again watching this. Congrats Space X. Suck on this, Boeing and Bezos!
Don't agree with blue origin being paired with Boeing. We have yet to see what blue can do, so I give them the benefit of the doubt. Speed of development is only one measure. Building quality and reliability is paramount in space, and why Boeing deserves to be on a bad list.
@@hawkdsl Very true. In space years, we're still in the very beginning of this new age of corporate space programs. SpaceX is of course the dominant monster on the scene, but slow, cautious development also has its qualities. And no, you can't pay me enough to say a good word about Boeing right now.
Well they did have some slight burn through on one of the ships flaps but much less severe compared to flight 4 and from what I understand no mishap investigation needed so hopefully they will get no burn through on flight 6
I have screamed the loudest scream in the entire history of me ever. This is right out of some Anime movie that is still in the making. The history that has just occurred is nothing short of amazing.🤯🎇🎆
I like the way you think, Erik! Me too, I am 59 yrs old with a Bachelors in Aerospace Engineering and this just moved me to tears. Just absolutely incredible work by all!!!
I'm privileged and lucky to be alive witnessing the day history was made and I can't wait to watch a livestream when the first person lands on Mars in a couple years from now on. Exciting times we're living in.
couple years? come on :P as much as i would love that, that aint gonna happen in 2 years lol we still yet to do a payload delivery with this thing, and before this rocket gets human rated it will have to go through MANY unmanned flights without errors... and then when it does it'll go for a few spins around the moon or to the ISS etc. and THEN assuming all goes well we'll finally get a mars mission, no sooner then 2030....
@@jahjahjah333 You're just throwing in arguments with no source or any proof meanwhile there are actual people standing nearby the launch pad witnessing rockets going into space and returning. It was possible to build the ISS, the largest laboratory in cooperation with many different countries and we send actual scientists into space who are living there for a couple months. We now have reusable rockets and spaceships, there’s been several missions to the moon already and it’s a proven fact, yet you say it’s not possible. As I said, stop spreading false information, you’re making yourself look ridiculous.
For once in my life I have felt hope and excitement for the future of humanity, this doesn’t happen many times throughout history. What a time to be alive

I always remember people saying it would be good if robots replaced physical labor, despite physical jobs EASILY being the most rewarding and enjoyable jobs vs all the life sucking office jobs.
@@jahjahjah333 Oh Mr. deep thought, when in the past did a rocket get caught in air while landing? I seem to have missed it but you will certainly enlighten me of the historical event of the past.
not gonna lie, when that booster started comming real close, tears were forming in my eyes.... even the second time i watched it, tears came. such an incredible catch holy moly!!!
Booster reentry to landing will never ever get old... and we might see as many as 24 launches next year! I live about 60 miles from this and my neighbors said the shockwave rattled their windows ! crazy Can't WAIT to see the ship glide over the Rio Grande Valley
Absolutely stunning. I was in tears 5 minutes in until the booster catch. What an incredible achievement for all of humanity. Massive kudos to the SpaceX team!!!! It is absolutely criminal that this isn't at the top of every single news feed.
It's no big deal. What they did was play the launch video in reverse. Do you understand what I'm saying? So the booster launch from the chopsticks is the rocket actually taking off. All they did was play the video in reverse.
@@kalidilerious First, if it was reversed, we would see the exhaust from the engines being sucked in, which is not how a rocket engine works. Second, look at 0:51. You can still see the ship. Now look at the booster catch. Now the ship is gone. The booster can’t just magically pick up the ship from space, which is what would happen if the footage was reversed. So overall, it is not reversed.
What a great time to be alive. I’m almost 16, and I can’t even imagine what I am going to see in my life. I would love to end up working somewhere in space industry
I was your age when Apollo 11 landed. I envy you: in your life you will see, and possibly experience, what is going to be the golden age of space flight. By all means, study hard, master math, go into engineering, and you'll have a life that, by the time you reach my age, you'll be proud to look back on.
Wow just wow well done everyone who works for and has ever worked for space x. I guess nobody is laughing at them now because this is how you inspire the world and change history
It wasn't that long ago that StarHopper first flew. Who knew that in just a few years, this would be a reality in its first attempt. Kudos to the Dreamers at SpaceX.
The fact that the booster separated from stage 1, and after re-entry it fired up those 13 engines and then 3 to align itself for perfect landing is beyond amazing. Not to mention landing on the chop sticks first try. Hats off to the Space X team. 👏
I got tears in my eyes! I'm watching science fiction become science fact and it's just the best thing ever. That landing was absolutely perfect! Textbook landing - smooth as silk, slick as grease! All the fine people at SpaceX did an incredible job! As I watched the landing, I was lost for words. I could only scream excitedly. Elon Musk started the second space race and the space race was the best thing to happen to humanity since the industrial revolution. The end results of another space race will be robots, spaceships, better AI and other cool stuff we saw in sci-fi movies.
Это же просто фантастика! Такой огромный аппарат, на такой скорости, влетает в атмосферу, и идеально припарковывается в лапки башни! Что это? ЧУДО! Желаю словить как можно больше бустеров и кораблей!
I was a wide eyed little kid growing up in the 1960s watching the Space Race and Apollo 11 and now I'm a wide eyed 67 year old watching this . Amazing ! Great Job SpaceX !
Watching this was absolutely amazing to get it right on the first time. SpaceX is doing an amazing job continuing from the space shuttle days. And I'm an EX rocket scientist and I worked on the space shuttle program as a subcontractor to NASA in the control room of the LCC 3 mi from PAD 39a from sts2 to sts-133 June 15th 1981 to April 8th 2011 and I thought we were doing amazing things with the shuttle with reusable srbs and reusable shuttles. But SpaceX takes it to the next level. So congratulations to SpaceX and Elon. Watching this today really makes me miss working out there all those years. Good job SpaceX
@ex.spaceshuttle.worker, yes SpaceX rocks and definitely brings back the goosebumps of all of America's space program: Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and the Space Shuttle. No one is catching up with SpaceX and they are America's future in space. BTW, you were doing amazing things back then, but like you wrote, SpaceX has taken rocket science to the next level.
i've followed spaceX and Elons plans from the very begining. I remember seeing all the failed atempts and the first successful landing of the falcon booster beeing blown away. But this is something else completely! When i saw the first animations of the "BFR" landing back in 2016, i was like "ye right, there is no way, you guys are crazy". Now they are doing just that, BUT, they are catching it with chopsticks????? SpaceX have by far exceeded my expectations! Thanks for making human spaceflight exciting again!
Elon's plans!!?? It's crazy that you even bring his name up considering this has nothing to do with him! I've lost every shred of respect for him ever since now we know about his anti-semitic views! It's disgusting rants about Ukraine! And now backing Donald Trump the biggest traitor that we've ever had as president! This is a victory for the engineers the people who actually built this damn thing! Elan is out of the picture when it comes to the successes open SpaceX!
@@patman0250 How does this have nothing to do with him? Just because he did not put the screws in their place or engineer what we just saw he is still the man that made SpaceX possible and without SpaceX this would never have happened. Considering that without Elon´s SpaceX the Beoing crap would be state of the art maybe you like that better and we stay in the Spaceflight stoneage during our livetime without elon. Stop letting personal feelings judge an accomplishment, judge the person as a human but not what he accomplished.
@@reinerhoch1357 Just like that! People laughed at Elon when he started spaceX, but the guy had a vision and made it a reality, now people finds ways to still bashing him for is accomplishments. @patman0250 You might not like him as a person, and i sure as hell dont agree with some of his views. However he is CEO and chief engineer, if you think that he has 0% to do with this ship flying, go do your research.
@@patman0250 It is sad that politics has made you this way. Great things needs a vision. And TONS of money. Your question should be: Why has no other rich person done what Elon did with SpaceX?
This launch marks an extraordinary milestone for humanity. It’s a testament to what we can accomplish when we dedicate our effort, intellect, and determination to a shared vision. Truly a proud moment for us all!
I 100% understand the appeal of space... But... Planet Earth is so, so spectacular! I'm obsessed with seeing it from orbit. Oh boy, I can only imagine what its like to be in orbit, and to look down on our beloved planet. Im young enough that I will take the earliest opportunity to see it for myself! What we have is so precious. A one of a kind system within at least our band of the milky way. We MUST preserve it! There is so much yet to still explore in the oceans and in the arctics. Planet Earth, we love you!
I absolutely agree! But here's the thing most people don't realize...a thriving space industry will be absolutely CRITICAL to our planet and the environment in the decades and centuries to come. Look at the disastrous mining processes to acquire the necessary elements to make EV cars, solar panels, electronics, and all the things that are touted as being renewable and clean. They're extremely rare, and one day they'll be so difficult to find and our reliance on them so important, that leveling mountains in order to harvest them will be unfortunate but necessary. NASA has found an asteroid that is estimated to have enough rare elements to completely devalue them on Earth, all of the precious metals will be as cheap as lead, rare earth minerals will no longer be considered rare but abundant....and there are innumerable asteroids out there for us to find in our quest to improve our clean energy and zero emission aspirations. If we can get our space industry to the point that such elements and minerals can be profitably harvested from our asteroid belt and brought back to Earth, we can finally stop stripping and destroying our home planet for the things we're relying on to keep it healthy and sustainable. Our planet is why we should be supporting all endeavors in space, my friend.
You know Earth will eventually die with or without our help. Stephen Hawkins reckoned Earth has 500 years (get your head around that). So we need more people like Elon Musk to get us among the stars......................😊
@@jahjahjah333 yes, because the phone or pc you are writing this on is just a conspiracy, we actually still use smoke to communicate, the gov just planted nano bots in our brains to think we actually using a keyboard to write to random people on the internet - good catch!
At 60 years old I’d rank this success with how I felt at the moon landings and the early Space Shuttle success. This is a huge step in reusability of future spacecraft. Now I wait eagerly for a Starship to reach LEO and then return to land with a live crew. At that point we are ready for huge things
I was an Artist at The NYTs and drew many published NASA drawings. All I did over the years were never as exciting as this round-trip and capture. How amazing!!!
Believe it or not, they don't. These are just hard-working engineers who are passionate about what they're doing. Same as NASA. Doesn't take "geniuses" to do this stuff. Just takes people willing to put in the grind of math and work together as a team. Anyone can do it! Yes, you! Believe in yourself. =]
@@jasonfrost5025 probably not everyone you'll need a minimum IQ to work in a team like that :) As not everybody can be a basketball star or a politican. We all have individual strengths and weaknesses.
This is incredible to see what they accomplished. The first time seeing the falcon land back was incredible and now starship booster! This is something in the movies but real life.
I am so proud of the way Spacex has made progress in leaps and bounds. To be able to so accurately catch one of the boosters like that was brilliant to watch. So proud of the whole crew at Spacex. Keep up the awesome work and may the future be yours!
This is an incredible milestone and a proud moment for humanity. It demonstrates that with determination, ingenuity, and passion, there are no limits to what we can achieve. This marks the beginning of many more groundbreaking accomplishments, and it fuels hope that we might witness the historic achievement of landing humans on Mars within our lifetime. Kudos to SpaceX for this outstanding feat-you've made the world proud!
Tears of Joy once again. I remember thinking that hopping a grain silo was incredible and here we are now catching boosters out of the sky. Well done everyone!
Oh I can think of a few others such as... -the five other moon landings. -the landing of probes on Mars, Venus and Titan as well as a comet. -sending probes to orbit Mars, venus, Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn. -sending a probe to do flybys of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. -the 130 plus space shuttle launches and landings. -the construction of space stations like Mir and the ISS. and those are just the space related things.
There are other candidates: The Human genome project. Not only that they did it, but they did it ahead of schedule and under budget. And for $300 I can have my own done. Not just genotype but full DNA sequence. Some of the antiaging experiments with mice have been pretty incredible. They made a blind mouse see again, for one. They have made fruit flies live many times longer than normal. They restored the thymus, responsible for many immune functions, the shrinking of which is likely behind the susceptibility of the elderly to flu and other killers, that shrinks with age in elderly people. Going to the Moon is great, but when they can make a person live to 100 years and still have the body of a 50-year-old, and potentially live to 200 or more? Yes, I know, we have not done it yet. We have made great progress against cancer. Over 150 million people have had their lives saved by advances since 1969. And you have to acknowledge the progress of AI. The art was fantastic, now the music is fantastic, soon the video will be fantastic. And there was using AI to solve all the protein folding, for which the Nobel was just awarded, and could allow us to engineer novel genes that don't exist in nature but are purpose designed to fix problems. GPS is pretty nifty. MRI machines. Statins have likely saved many lives. Cellular phones/smartphones. The PC. But "The Internet" has to be the winner. When this is used to build a Mars colony, we can revisit this comparison. Somehow, by that time, AI's impacts will be even more profound and hard to compete against. Antiaging may also have made strides. Cancer also may have been pushed to the 6th or 8th leading cause of death. And there may be new things like gestational chambers, that allow optimal nutrition, optimal mental stimulation, minimal exposure to toxins and pathogens, freedom from genetic defects, and ideal birth weight when baby is taken out. It would be amazing if many more people got a great start in life. The fraction of newborns that have had it that good is probably negligible. 90% have less than optimal iodine. And probably greater than 95% have suboptimal choline, especially as the suggested level is at least short by 50%, and 90% don't get even that. We haven't even figured out the optimal level of many nutrients...even the "required" ones we haven't figured out. The control in gestational chambers will allow us to hone in on optimal. And it is more important than most people realize. Common variation levels of Iodine can make more than a full standard deviation in IQ difference, Choline at least a half, collectively the other B vitamins another half, D, omega 3, astaxanthin, and other things likely another half, and just eating 7-8 serving of fruit can add another half. Hardly any room for the supposed genetic component. And I haven't even looked at the other end. The toxins, pathogens, and hypoxia and such driving IQ lower.
Fun facts: 2:50 the blue plume is exactly the same as that on the stove, indicating a clean combustion, meaning SpaceX must have improved the engine in some way 4:33 The dot on the horizon seen on the ship's view(left) is the superheavy booster 7:00 The "cloud" superheavy flew through is the very launch plume it came up from 7:18 The reason why the bottom of the superheavy is bright yellow is that it's so hot the stainless steel started glowing
Meanwhile, at the FAA, "send SpaceX a letter stating there will be an investigation into the amount of fog that the rocket put off before launch. They gave 4 frogs oxygen toxicity. Jeff Bezos would care about the frogs".... LMAO. Go SpaceX. Screw the FAA. What better way to show them than to have a flawless flight. I'm shaking right now.
What is the piece that separated from the booster at 5:40 I just woke up missing this live, and the SpaceX channel removed the live stream, so I'm here. Is that a piece that is supposed to come off? or what could it be? I'm still learning about all this awesome space stuff. Also, Holy Buckets, Congratulations on the catch! First Try
It's called the hot staging ring. It was added late into design to protect the booster from the starship exhaust. Temporarily it will be dumped to save weight, but in the future they will keep it.
It's the hot staging ring, which is a piece between the ship and the booster that acts as a heat shield for the first stage so the second stage can ignite its engines before separation. It is normal for it to detach after separation. Future designs are supposed to phase this out once they improve the hot staging techniques.
Thank you all for the info . I'm just an old snowboarder stuck in a wheelchair and had no idea what that could've been, I figured the Space X announcers may have mentioned it, but when nothing was said I was wondering. :) andrewmcnamara1991, ryancollyer2046, STARGUY5, TheTennesseeTornado

Of course the Engineers of the Booster did an amazing job... but what about those that designed and built that tower? The tower did exactly it's part in all this. Amazing in so many areas.
Yep ..
Congratulations to the builders..

Hold my 🍺 beer..

Stage 0 is the big hero!
I think it's amazing that the tower can handle the heat, sonic shock, and blast of those engines on the way up without being destroyed in the first place, let alone retaining the capability of such a precision capture maneuver only 7 minutes later. They seem to have the biggest problems solved. They just need to work out those little issues (like continuing flap burn-throughs) and demonstrate repeatability so we can see some crewed missions in this beast.
@@beenaplumber8379 crewed is not happening any time soon, and will never happen with this configuration. They'll have to resort to some sort of detachable craft that replaces the nose section of starship, that can independently re-enter on a glide pattern. Dreamchaser, scaled up and on steroids.
@@paulmichaelfreedman8334 define soon, because it will happen in the next two years
Unbelievable SpaceX. That was the first attempt and it worked straight away. It's really breathtaking. A very strong performance. A few small things obviously flew off but overall it's amazing that it worked so well the first time. When you see how quickly you're making progress... unbelievable. Sensational SpaceX. Congratulations to the whole team on this incredible new milestone.
I've seen all the Apollo missions, watched Armstrong's Giant Leap, and still remember the excitement and fascination like it was yesterday. This event today brought all of those emotions back. man I felt like a kid again watching this. Congrats Space X. Suck on this, Boeing and Bezos!
SpaceX ROCKS! Dramatically changing the entire space exploration enterprise forever. Bold ideas put into history!!!
Boeing and Bezos are like those restaurant owners on Kitchen Nightmares who should never touch food.
Don't agree with blue origin being paired with Boeing. We have yet to see what blue can do, so I give them the benefit of the doubt. Speed of development is only one measure. Building quality and reliability is paramount in space, and why Boeing deserves to be on a bad list.
@@hawkdsl Very true. In space years, we're still in the very beginning of this new age of corporate space programs. SpaceX is of course the dominant monster on the scene, but slow, cautious development also has its qualities. And no, you can't pay me enough to say a good word about Boeing right now.
And you still believe it's authentic ? Wow bro.
Im 52 and I never thought I would have seen anything like this.
SpaceX is bringing us the future now!
Flight-5 gone smooth as butter....
Holy Moly! What time to be alive.🥶🤯
Well they did have some slight burn through on one of the ships flaps but much less severe compared to flight 4 and from what I understand no mishap investigation needed so hopefully they will get no burn through on flight 6

I'm privileged and lucky to be alive witnessing the day history was made and I can't wait to watch a livestream when the first person lands on Mars in a couple years from now on. Exciting times we're living in.
couple years? come on :P as much as i would love that, that aint gonna happen in 2 years lol we still yet to do a payload delivery with this thing, and before this rocket gets human rated it will have to go through MANY unmanned flights without errors... and then when it does it'll go for a few spins around the moon or to the ISS etc. and THEN assuming all goes well we'll finally get a mars mission, no sooner then 2030....
thats not possible, just like the moon. we are being tricked and its epic. God bless

not gonna lie, when that booster started comming real close, tears were forming in my eyes....
even the second time i watched it, tears came.
such an incredible catch holy moly!!!
What a great day! Those day's wrote history! Congrats! 🎉
So exciting and so happy for you SpaceX!! Thank you for all you are doing for keeping the USA on a pace to do great things in space exploration!!
Booster reentry to landing will never ever get old... and we might see as many as 24 launches next year!
I live about 60 miles from this and my neighbors said the shockwave rattled their windows ! crazy
Can't WAIT to see the ship glide over the Rio Grande Valley
Absolutely stunning. I was in tears 5 minutes in until the booster catch. What an incredible achievement for all of humanity. Massive kudos to the SpaceX team!!!! It is absolutely criminal that this isn't at the top of every single news feed.
It's no big deal. What they did was play the launch video in reverse.
Do you understand what I'm saying? So the booster launch from the chopsticks is the rocket actually taking off. All they did was play the video in reverse.
@@kalidilerious First, if it was reversed, we would see the exhaust from the engines being sucked in, which is not how a rocket engine works. Second, look at 0:51. You can still see the ship. Now look at the booster catch. Now the ship is gone. The booster can’t just magically pick up the ship from space, which is what would happen if the footage was reversed. So overall, it is not reversed.
What a great time to be alive. I’m almost 16, and I can’t even imagine what I am going to see in my life. I would love to end up working somewhere in space industry
We thought that during Apollo as well. Maybe now the tech is there to finally make it happen.
You're a very lucky man. I saw the first rockets so my time is nearly up. You will see such wonders. Enjoy.
Same I'm 19 and I'm so freaking excited!!
You young folk make me proud, I am 59 and so proud of all of these engineers, physicists, mathematicians, etc. What a great team!
I was your age when Apollo 11 landed. I envy you: in your life you will see, and possibly experience, what is going to be the golden age of space flight. By all means, study hard, master math, go into engineering, and you'll have a life that, by the time you reach my age, you'll be proud to look back on.
Wow just wow well done everyone who works for and has ever worked for space x. I guess nobody is laughing at them now because this is how you inspire the world and change history
It wasn't that long ago that StarHopper first flew. Who knew that in just a few years, this would be a reality in its first attempt. Kudos to the Dreamers at SpaceX.
The fact that the booster separated from stage 1, and after re-entry it fired up those 13 engines and then 3 to align itself for perfect landing is beyond amazing. Not to mention landing on the chop sticks first try. Hats off to the Space X team. 👏
I got tears in my eyes! I'm watching science fiction become science fact and it's just the best thing ever.
That landing was absolutely perfect! Textbook landing - smooth as silk, slick as grease!
All the fine people at SpaceX did an incredible job! As I watched the landing, I was lost for words. I could only scream excitedly.
Elon Musk started the second space race and the space race was the best thing to happen to humanity since the industrial revolution. The end results of another space race will be robots, spaceships, better AI and other cool stuff we saw in sci-fi movies.

Greetings from Germany,

Это же просто фантастика! Такой огромный аппарат, на такой скорости, влетает в атмосферу, и идеально припарковывается в лапки башни!
Что это? ЧУДО!
Желаю словить как можно больше бустеров и кораблей!
I was a wide eyed little kid growing up in the 1960s watching the Space Race and Apollo 11 and now I'm a wide eyed 67 year old watching this . Amazing ! Great Job SpaceX !
Watching this was absolutely amazing to get it right on the first time. SpaceX is doing an amazing job continuing from the space shuttle days. And I'm an EX rocket scientist and I worked on the space shuttle program as a subcontractor to NASA in the control room of the LCC 3 mi from PAD 39a from sts2 to sts-133 June 15th 1981 to April 8th 2011 and I thought we were doing amazing things with the shuttle with reusable srbs and reusable shuttles. But SpaceX takes it to the next level. So congratulations to SpaceX and Elon. Watching this today really makes me miss working out there all those years. Good job SpaceX
@ex.spaceshuttle.worker, yes SpaceX rocks and definitely brings back the goosebumps of all of America's space program: Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and the Space Shuttle. No one is catching up with SpaceX and they are America's future in space. BTW, you were doing amazing things back then, but like you wrote, SpaceX has taken rocket science to the next level.
Go SpaceX go . Incredible flight 5 cried 2 times today thanks for the great show
I worked at SpaceX about 8 years ago when we landed the first booster. This is incredible from any perspective! Well done!!!!!
😂😂😂 sure you did.
@@TheLastChapter2023 Your opinion does not change that fact that I did what I said.
i've followed spaceX and Elons plans from the very begining. I remember seeing all the failed atempts and the first successful landing of the falcon booster beeing blown away. But this is something else completely! When i saw the first animations of the "BFR" landing back in 2016, i was like "ye right, there is no way, you guys are crazy". Now they are doing just that, BUT, they are catching it with chopsticks????? SpaceX have by far exceeded my expectations! Thanks for making human spaceflight exciting again!
Elon's plans!!?? It's crazy that you even bring his name up considering this has nothing to do with him! I've lost every shred of respect for him ever since now we know about his anti-semitic views! It's disgusting rants about Ukraine! And now backing Donald Trump the biggest traitor that we've ever had as president! This is a victory for the engineers the people who actually built this damn thing! Elan is out of the picture when it comes to the successes open SpaceX!
@@patman0250 How does this have nothing to do with him? Just because he did not put the screws in their place or engineer what we just saw he is still the man that made SpaceX possible and without SpaceX this would never have happened. Considering that without Elon´s SpaceX the Beoing crap would be state of the art maybe you like that better and we stay in the Spaceflight stoneage during our livetime without elon.
Stop letting personal feelings judge an accomplishment, judge the person as a human but not what he accomplished.
@@reinerhoch1357 Just like that! People laughed at Elon when he started spaceX, but the guy had a vision and made it a reality, now people finds ways to still bashing him for is accomplishments. @patman0250 You might not like him as a person, and i sure as hell dont agree with some of his views. However he is CEO and chief engineer, if you think that he has 0% to do with this ship flying, go do your research.
@@patman0250 It is sad that politics has made you this way. Great things needs a vision. And TONS of money. Your question should be: Why has no other rich person done what Elon did with SpaceX?
This launch marks an extraordinary milestone for humanity. It’s a testament to what we can accomplish when we dedicate our effort, intellect, and determination to a shared vision. Truly a proud moment for us all!
I 100% understand the appeal of space... But... Planet Earth is so, so spectacular! I'm obsessed with seeing it from orbit. Oh boy, I can only imagine what its like to be in orbit, and to look down on our beloved planet. Im young enough that I will take the earliest opportunity to see it for myself!
What we have is so precious. A one of a kind system within at least our band of the milky way. We MUST preserve it! There is so much yet to still explore in the oceans and in the arctics.
Planet Earth, we love you!
I absolutely agree! But here's the thing most people don't realize...a thriving space industry will be absolutely CRITICAL to our planet and the environment in the decades and centuries to come. Look at the disastrous mining processes to acquire the necessary elements to make EV cars, solar panels, electronics, and all the things that are touted as being renewable and clean. They're extremely rare, and one day they'll be so difficult to find and our reliance on them so important, that leveling mountains in order to harvest them will be unfortunate but necessary. NASA has found an asteroid that is estimated to have enough rare elements to completely devalue them on Earth, all of the precious metals will be as cheap as lead, rare earth minerals will no longer be considered rare but abundant....and there are innumerable asteroids out there for us to find in our quest to improve our clean energy and zero emission aspirations. If we can get our space industry to the point that such elements and minerals can be profitably harvested from our asteroid belt and brought back to Earth, we can finally stop stripping and destroying our home planet for the things we're relying on to keep it healthy and sustainable. Our planet is why we should be supporting all endeavors in space, my friend.
You know Earth will eventually die with or without our help. Stephen Hawkins reckoned Earth has 500 years (get your head around that). So we need more people like Elon Musk to get us among the stars......................😊

-the five other moon landings.
-the landing of probes on Mars, Venus and Titan as well as a comet.
-sending probes to orbit Mars, venus, Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn.
-sending a probe to do flybys of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.
-the 130 plus space shuttle launches and landings.
-the construction of space stations like Mir and the ISS.
and those are just the space related things.
@@DeepDeepSpace Don't forget the Parker Solar Probe currently exploring the sun's atmosphere and the fastest thing ever built by humanity.
There are other candidates: The Human genome project. Not only that they did it, but they did it ahead of schedule and under budget. And for $300 I can have my own done. Not just genotype but full DNA sequence. Some of the antiaging experiments with mice have been pretty incredible. They made a blind mouse see again, for one. They have made fruit flies live many times longer than normal. They restored the thymus, responsible for many immune functions, the shrinking of which is likely behind the susceptibility of the elderly to flu and other killers, that shrinks with age in elderly people. Going to the Moon is great, but when they can make a person live to 100 years and still have the body of a 50-year-old, and potentially live to 200 or more? Yes, I know, we have not done it yet. We have made great progress against cancer. Over 150 million people have had their lives saved by advances since 1969. And you have to acknowledge the progress of AI. The art was fantastic, now the music is fantastic, soon the video will be fantastic. And there was using AI to solve all the protein folding, for which the Nobel was just awarded, and could allow us to engineer novel genes that don't exist in nature but are purpose designed to fix problems. GPS is pretty nifty. MRI machines. Statins have likely saved many lives. Cellular phones/smartphones. The PC. But "The Internet" has to be the winner.
When this is used to build a Mars colony, we can revisit this comparison. Somehow, by that time, AI's impacts will be even more profound and hard to compete against. Antiaging may also have made strides. Cancer also may have been pushed to the 6th or 8th leading cause of death. And there may be new things like gestational chambers, that allow optimal nutrition, optimal mental stimulation, minimal exposure to toxins and pathogens, freedom from genetic defects, and ideal birth weight when baby is taken out. It would be amazing if many more people got a great start in life. The fraction of newborns that have had it that good is probably negligible. 90% have less than optimal iodine. And probably greater than 95% have suboptimal choline, especially as the suggested level is at least short by 50%, and 90% don't get even that. We haven't even figured out the optimal level of many nutrients...even the "required" ones we haven't figured out. The control in gestational chambers will allow us to hone in on optimal. And it is more important than most people realize. Common variation levels of Iodine can make more than a full standard deviation in IQ difference, Choline at least a half, collectively the other B vitamins another half, D, omega 3, astaxanthin, and other things likely another half, and just eating 7-8 serving of fruit can add another half. Hardly any room for the supposed genetic component. And I haven't even looked at the other end. The toxins, pathogens, and hypoxia and such driving IQ lower.

What is the piece that separated from the booster at 5:40
I just woke up missing this live, and the SpaceX channel removed the live stream, so I'm here.
Is that a piece that is supposed to come off? or what could it be? I'm still learning about all this awesome space stuff. Also, Holy Buckets, Congratulations on the catch! First Try
I believe that is the hot stage ring it looks like
It's called the hot staging ring. It was added late into design to protect the booster from the starship exhaust. Temporarily it will be dumped to save weight, but in the future they will keep it.
That was the hot staging ring that they separated to save weight
It's the hot staging ring, which is a piece between the ship and the booster that acts as a heat shield for the first stage so the second stage can ignite its engines before separation. It is normal for it to detach after separation. Future designs are supposed to phase this out once they improve the hot staging techniques.
Thank you all for the info . I'm just an old snowboarder stuck in a wheelchair and had no idea what that could've been, I figured the Space X announcers may have mentioned it, but when nothing was said I was wondering. :) andrewmcnamara1991, ryancollyer2046, STARGUY5, TheTennesseeTornado
