    The fact that Musk and Bridenstine give you an exclusive interview when every network around the world is vying for their attention? That's serious street cred, my man.

      What was so excellent about his interview was it was *informed*. Like, he's not some pretty-face reporter asking stupid questions. He's someone informed asking questions and pushing for more information. It was an excellent interview, especially the last few minutes where he wanted some totally reasonable explanation on how that partnership between NASA and commercial partners would work. Good on Tim.

      I think it's because he never asks stupid mainstream media-type questions. Tim cares about the rockets and the products, not stupid political stuff like some other interviewers. Also he's very casual, which is nice because you can see Elon being nervous in front of large crowds

      @@geoffreygoffman3222 I think so too. Elon often said he doesn't like boring questions, he likes to talk about tech stuff and what ACTUALLY matters to HIM which just tells you that he really loves what he is doing and he really cares about his products and not how he is portrayed by politics or whatever. Kinda the reason why he sold his real estates since he didn't like to be compared to other billionaires who have lots of "unnecessary" stuff just to show off. Cool dude.

When SpaceX tests rockets it's okay if it explodes because they aren't going to lose their funding because of it because they are a private company. Think about how SN 1, SN 3 and SN 4 exploded in the pressure test. SpaceX can build those in a few weeks and test to improve the design much faster than testing individual components.

    "The Everyday Astronaut: Bringing space down to Earth for everyday people." And that's just what you did in this interview! I felt like, "That's Tim. I practically know him. He's standing with and talking to Elon and Jim. Those guys now seem much more human and down-to-earth, too." Outstanding, Tim! Outstanding! You were there! You did it. You are us, and so we were there, too. No news reporter could do that, because they are not "our Tim...us, the everyday guy or gal." Thank you, Tim. The three of you spoke of the partnership between NASA and SpaceX, and that it is not NASA vs SpaceX. So my question is, what is the relationship between NASA, Crew Dragon and Boeing's Starliner? Is Starliner in competition with Crew Dragon for future contracts...is it one or the other, winner take all? Or is there a plan to utilize both? And if so, will one spacecraft be used more equally than the other? :) Or will it just play out, and NASA will see which works better vs costs, down the road?

    • @MrUnbekannt34
      @MrUnbekannt34 4 года назад +5

      One Question is already answered. They are using both Crew Dragon and Starliner for redundancy and reliability. So that they always have a System thats is ready to bring Crew to the ISS, you can read that in many Articels in the Web. So there is no crew dragon vs starliner.
      Example, Falcon 9 had a Static Fire failure in 2016 and they had to put down the whole System 5 Months. So in that 5 Months Spacex was not capable of sending something to the space with Falcon 9. For this case, Nasa has the Starliner to close that Gap.
      They planned initaly 3 Crew-Capsule to have even more Redudancy.

      SPECTRE were idiots. Or Mr Osato if it was developed by Osato Chemicals. Bird One could have easily been upgraded into a fully re-usable launch system that with it's existing upper stage could have delivered cargo or crew to orbit. They'd solved the big problem of recovering the upper stage and precision landing, so recovering the lower stage would have been far easier, given the additiuonal infrastructure of a landing pad downrange.
      Extend the length of the first stage by 50%, and add two more engines at right angles to the existing two edge mounted motors and it could have carried around 5 tons in it's nose mounted payload bay. Remove the crew section and you could probably bump that to 10 tons. Or replace the payload bay with a pressurised cabin and you could transport a dozen passengers to and from orbit. There might even be enough volume to use it as a short term space station for a couple of astronauts.

      Tim is probably one of the best spaceflight journalists out there, and especially when it comes to covering SpaceX and interviewing Elon Musk. It's obvious he enjoys being interviewed by him, and who wouldn't? So knowledgable about everything from the history of spaceflight to the cutting edge design of SpaceX. He makes an interview with Elon Musk into a nerd out about space or just a casual conversation about the coolest stuff on earth (or in space). I loved the comment about elons old password "is the 9 for nine merlin engines?", he just knows what he's talking about, and he seems to know Elon too!

I really love how SpaceX and NASA are, and will be better together than alone. As an added bonus there's Boeing at least trying to compete. I think they too need to take a couple (of hundreds) of pages from SpaceX's playbook so us citizens can enjoy even faster advancement in science, development and exploration.
