It's crazy to think that catching Superheavy boosters will regularly occur once Starship becomes operational. And here I thought landing a booster on a barge was crazy.
I'm not slobbering Elon Musk's knob like a lot of people on X are these days, but I gotta say, I love these launches and their iterative process. And the fact that they show us their failures, accept them, and move on rapidly. It's pretty awesome.
Looks cool, but does not do what NASA paid them for. Catching that booster is fools gold. This thing has not even made to orbit yet. Artemas has already been to the moon and back, but the moon lander is a bust. The bar has been set very low for success with the Star ship program. They are not saving much money by reusable state from Falcon 9. Always talking about views in the telecast. That is selling the sizzle, not the steak.
i saw that right away - it could be a problem with loose tiles since it is loss of thermal protection. but obviously it was not a sufficient damage for RAPID UNPLANNED DISASSEMBLY xD
4:13 even the simple things like seeing the debris float around in zero-gravity is astonishing. We've all seen stuff like that in movies but here we're seeing the physics of it in real life
That's the hot-stage ring, which protects the boosters actuators during hot-staging, which is when the engines on the second stage are started while still attached to the first stage, which is only running on three engines. This simply allows Starship to have it's fuel immediately settled without the need of an RCS thruster doing an "ullage" burn (essentially settling the fuel through the use of a really weak engine). At some point in the future, the hot-stage ring will be integrated into the booster, and it won't have to be jettisoned.
A real shame that Ship couldn't survive. Well I suppose with all of the FAA stuff coming up that they might be able to reuse this booster sooner than we think in terms of flight #
That's some serious plate-spinning at 17:20.😂 I understand her wanting to put a positive spin on this disaster, but I think that ship had already sailed, so to speak.
The 2nd stage got weakend on purpose to check what it can withstand. And no missions had intentions to recover starship. They all get destroyed. It should complete its mission for valuable data. Flight 7 was more of a "how far wil starship get now with visible weakpoints"
Shame the flight didn't quite work out as planned but nonetheless great flight overall. Love to see they have the catch down now and first time wasn't just luck. That's the part I expected to need the most testing and fiddling with.
By my understanding, that flap is superficial and has no barring on the vehicles survivability. Its just an extra out sheet that was to be testing its own survivability during decent to see if it can be used as a heat shield for the area under the catch pins that can later have the chop sticks run over it.
This exists because of greedy russian military leaders, not NASA. If NASA had a proper budget, they would have been able to attempt this sort of thing decades ago.
I cant wait until we go back to the moon and to mars. With the cameras we have today....the footage is going to be absolutely amazing! Is it possible to launch satellites kinda like a chain from here to Mars......and then communication is faster?
Thats an extra sheet they were going to use for testing, it being detached has no effect on any system at all. Its completely superficial by my understanding.
I mean, we are about a year away from not being able to tell the difference between reality and manufactured vids. It's better to be skeptical earlier so as to not get too comfortable in the age of propaganda. It's not like Corporate News will help to spread any truth.
Trial and error I guess.. they still learning as they go! But I do wonder how Apollo didn’t have all these tests and just shot to the moon or am I misinformed
It looks like CH4 (min.8:50) leaked from the tank, liquid oxygen seems to be normal. Methane could have exploded from the activation of some electrical device.IMHO.
What in the world was that giant disc after hot stage? You aint telling me that ring came from this launch cause that thing is huge. Starship seems like it was shot down or stopped.
@leo_is_a_baka no FTS went on just by the tiny pieces it is FTS CH4 cannot explode like that if so there will be much bigger pieces who had fall when the pressure went too high the computer did activate it i can see you do not know the rules of FAA security is the rules not a Human.... fool commit
@leo_is_a_baka the rules of FAA is when lost control FTS is trigger automaticly it control by a computer software much more intelligent then you may think!
Cuando vi que en el asenso había un pedazo de chapa saliéndose del fuselaje, pense que no llegaría a buen puerto aún así el super heavy fue atrapado pero debido a esa chapa que se salió explotó en los aires cuan película star de ciencia ficción.
No, you didnt, that is an extra superficial sheet that has no connection to the inside of the vehicle. It was just a test material for the re entry which obviously it never made it to. The issue was in the engine bay, about 30 meters away.
That is really, really weird and scary how the booster comes back into the launch pad, gets secure, and then shuts off. Too bad the actual ship exploded.
@@moejama64 Duuhhhh!!!! It is the way booster comes in at the weird angles and then finally locks into the launch pad. It does not come straight down into the launch pad. But i guess it has to be done that way. It will be interesting if that maneuver can be done every time and that good. That is why I say it looks a little bit scary. If you don't like my wording , too bad.
Smthing that really pisses me off is that spacex ignores the fact that 5 engines went out and focus on the booster, same thing during IFT 1, they’ve ignored the fact that the whole stack was spinning arround
lol, what an absurd misunderstanding of reality. Just because the commentators dont mention something the moment it happens doesnt mean there isnt a dozen actual experts of the vehicle observing and reacting to any and all mishaps that are going on. They didnt ignore anything, they literally talked about it within minutes of it happening. Sure they were awe struck by the most insane things they have ever seen happening right in front of them, so what?
Fascinated ....(German-bad english-sorry...) Look at that new, or other.... You have to admit, .....wat he du /done is...... Yours..... Superior ...... no Land, no Nation does it bevore....
8:04 hay fuego saliendo por el alerón trasero al costado de la bahia de motores y el nivel de metano de la starship comienza a bajar rapidamente, posiblemente hubo una gran fuga de metano que terminó en explosión
The hot staging ring which sits between the 1st and 2nd stages. When the 2nd stage ignites its engines, the ring protects the booster from the heat/directs the energy away from the booster, and then the ring gets discarded to save weight for when the booster returns for landing.
As the other reply said. That is a temporary shield so the ship engines dont destroy the booster when they "hot stage" which means they fire the ship engines before it even detaches from the booster. Later boosters will have a much smaller and lighter shield they wont detach during flight.
That was none-structural catching hardware. It wouldn’t have mattered if it broke off or not, it was solely installed just to see if it would survive reentry.

Whoever the welder is for those landing struts needs a raise.
if I'm correct, the struts are connected together from left to right and are supported by the booster mass itself
8:06 of the video: At T+7:53 Sparks, possibly fire, can be seen in the actuator before the video feed is cut.
Great catch I would’ve never seen that. It looks like a little bit of fire at the hinge as well.
Might be on to something there - let’s see if Scott Manley picks up on that!
Good find!
I think it's a reflection of fires in the engine bay- watch the engines go out one by one on the telemetry starting with the top sea level raptor.
eagle eye
That catch will never get old to watch. Gives me chills.

7:40 Again, It was really smooth and gentle for such a massive thing. Dangling and swaying back and forth chilling right after.
That's what she said
@@huhwhat9759 broo😂
Do you know what else is massive?
Booster catch was perfect !!!!!
like watching a sci fi movie. love it!
the extra cameras and drones is sooo good! Gg spacex
Look at the middle left of the screen at the black metal plating - 0:58
Well... Something broke
Good eye
i saw that right away - it could be a problem with loose tiles since it is loss of thermal protection. but obviously it was not a sufficient damage for
RAPID UNPLANNED DISASSEMBLY xD
@@tore28 makes sense! But it may have contributed to the RAPID UNPLANNED DISASSEMBLY lol
I'm sure that's totally fine and the plating is unnecessary
That is extra padding for the catch. Scott Manley has a great video that covers this as well as LOADS of more information.
I can't believe i missed this... Got no notifications
Same

Thanks for bringing the official coverage to RUclips❤

How did movies get it so correct ?
The pictures it took were amazing,i guess the flat earth theory is completely destroyed now
When space flight was as cheap as airplanes, and people was normally travel between planets and moons. they will cease to exist.
I read this 5 times but i understand now 😂@rots3123
There are basement dwelling schitzos who think planes are fake
❤ congrats again
Spacex
I just love the view at 3:02 with those raptors on the booster at stage separation and the earth on the back, an easy 10/10
You can even see the one that didnt relight for boostback, but did for the landing burn
everytime ive watch this magnificent achievement always give tears in my eyes. i wish someday i can watch this in person. thank you elon
Its just like magic to see a rocket being caught by a tower. I went almost into tears.
Take a moment to appreciate how incredible this is!
Uma coisa bela assim faz valer a pena estar vivo nessa época.
I literally tear up everytime I see a catch! 🤣👍
Yes it is indeed an waste of money makes me cry too
@@3.2213no
I can't believe they pulled it off again. This will never get old.
This is the work of hard working engineers and rocket scientists to make it happen. Flawlessly
Booster catch was amazing I loved it
what is that at 4:08 ?
That's the hot-stage ring, which protects the boosters actuators during hot-staging, which is when the engines on the second stage are started while still attached to the first stage, which is only running on three engines.

Thanks for elaborate answer!
A real shame that Ship couldn't survive. Well I suppose with all of the FAA stuff coming up that they might be able to reuse this booster sooner than we think in terms of flight #
I've heard that they may potentially refly booster 14 on flight 9m
That's some serious plate-spinning at 17:20.😂 I understand her wanting to put a positive spin on this disaster, but I think that ship had already sailed, so to speak.
Flight 5 the best🔥🌇🚀
Szuper!
18 minutes for a starship launch is so tragic
The 2nd stage got weakend on purpose to check what it can withstand. And no missions had intentions to recover starship. They all get destroyed. It should complete its mission for valuable data.
Flight 7 was more of a "how far wil starship get now with visible weakpoints"
Wow 👏👏👏
This is just amazing !!!! Love it
that huge thing is climbing space with supersonic speed 🙂🙃😊
You can see fire on the ship in between the wing joint at 8:06
Shame the flight didn't quite work out as planned but nonetheless great flight overall. Love to see they have the catch down now and first time wasn't just luck. That's the part I expected to need the most testing and fiddling with.
Indeed, but to be honest, you can not catch one of these with one of those, with luck..
Right before max Q you can see the flap that killed it
By my understanding, that flap is superficial and has no barring on the vehicles survivability. Its just an extra out sheet that was to be testing its own survivability during decent to see if it can be used as a heat shield for the area under the catch pins that can later have the chop sticks run over it.
God animation
Awesome. 😗
brilliant
incredible----a true rocket ship---almost!
congrats to spaceX for the chopsticks catch again
unbelievable, mind boggling, insane, awesome....just wow....congrats people
Wow 😲😲😲 unbelievable
The booster made history but the main rocket starship explode at the atmosphere
Earth is "clearly FLAT" LMAO. I still cant understand how there is such a thing as flat earthers. insane
Holy Jesus, these people are real good.
So are we looking at sending out a few starships in a matter of days if not hours, when the time comes? I guess we are. Amazing!
What time are we waiting to come ?Asteroide striking over the Atlantic ocean ?
Fireworks every day baby!
@@domenicorutigliano9717 He means when the rocket is fully developed.
A lot of Teslas have been blowing up too.
But regular combustion engine cars, which generate power by a small contained explosion, haven’t?
Imagine strapping like 12 of these together and then lifting a massive space station to space. No assembly required
Land was much better this time, Can't wait for our first manned mission to Mars.
All right 👍
GK see at 0.45 minutes in Star ship flight 7 at the thermal protector one plate is shaking😮😮
Reminiscent of the Space Shuttle Colombia disaster. Caused by a panel coming loose.
A good job for spacex for catching the booster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can into very good big falcon rocket 👍
Imagine where we'd be if nasa never had a budget cut. This is the most impressive thing ive ever seen
NASA wasted countless amounts of money with its failed space shuttle program. SpaceX was the company that brought space exploration back
This exists because of greedy russian military leaders, not NASA.
If NASA had a proper budget, they would have been able to attempt this sort of thing decades ago.
If there were no budget cuts, this would have existed 50 years ago
SpaceX is always great! Great work SpaceX Teams and Elon👍🏻
Very interesting but the ships flaps actually do move during ascent very slightly.
I cant wait until we go back to the moon and to mars. With the cameras we have today....the footage is going to be absolutely amazing! Is it possible to launch satellites kinda like a chain from here to Mars......and then communication is faster?
1:02 left hand side of screen, you can see fuselage ripping open. Think that could be the cause of the anomaly.
Thats an extra sheet they were going to use for testing, it being detached has no effect on any system at all. Its completely superficial by my understanding.
Orzeszku...😍
The amazing thing here is how good AI is at making fake videos.
I mean, we are about a year away from not being able to tell the difference between reality and manufactured vids. It's better to be skeptical earlier so as to not get too comfortable in the age of propaganda. It's not like Corporate News will help to spread any truth.
So i guess all the videos of the debris raining down were AI too?
8:03 you know what else is massive?
LOWWWW TAPER FAAAAAAAAAAADE
Good luck ❤❤❤❤❤❤
17:17 Why starship always can't enter the atmosphere?
wdym
It made to space but RUD
Trial and error I guess.. they still learning as they go!
But I do wonder how Apollo didn’t have all these tests and just shot to the moon or am I misinformed
the booster looking like Anakin's lightsaber hilt a little bit haha=
Maybe
Anybody amazed by 4:09 space station? Is that Voyager?
open the schools
That's the hot-stage ring, it is jettisoned from the booster to reduce weight.
@cerberuslikesballin :( that sucks.
@@Snezana81 No need to be down, it's nice to let your mind run wild.
cool
Maybe people understand my name 😁 now. Most people do not know what Max Q means except people who know something about launcing rockets.
It looks like CH4 (min.8:50) leaked from the tank, liquid oxygen seems to be normal. Methane could have exploded from the activation of some electrical device.IMHO.
Ship came in and could see it .. could see the pieces coming in breaking up
What in the world was that giant disc after hot stage? You aint telling me that ring came from this launch cause that thing is huge. Starship seems like it was shot down or stopped.
Don't understand what you're talking about. Could you give a timestamp.
You mean the hot staging ring? They jettison that to save weight.

8:27 салют инаугурация Трампа 🎉
Textbook Booster Catch. Now just to fix remaining problems with Starship for next flight.
The commentators though😂😂😂😂
Looks more like a landing than a catch
Its both kinda. The booster has two little nubs sticking out that catch on the arms
it is CH4 leak look closely how fast the CH4 tank lose fuel compare to LOX at the end ,no doubt it is CH4 who cause the explosion and FTS go on
elon said both methane and lox leaked, that explains why there was a brief fire visible high up in the atmosphere
FTS never went of. The thing exploded minutes after they lost connection to it.
@leo_is_a_baka no FTS went on just by the tiny pieces it is FTS CH4 cannot explode like that if so there will be much bigger pieces who had fall when the pressure went too high the computer did activate it i can see you do not know the rules of FAA security is the rules not a Human.... fool commit
@leo_is_a_baka the rules of FAA is when lost control FTS is trigger automaticly it control by a computer software much more intelligent then you may think!
@leo_is_a_baka it was filmed in video and at 146 km there no oxygen to blow like it blow
It was beautiful and stunning blowed debris view, thank you Elon Musk ... 😱🤣👍
These failures are so much more enjoyable when you hate Lemon's guts ❤

What a great result catching a booster this way, absolutely fantastic
4:09 wht the object is this?
Doesn't look like the booster

It's Elysium space station
It's the hot staging ring, it's used for shielding the booster from the hot staging burn
They literally say what it is with their mouths as that video is being shown lol
Where is the video of the unscheduled disassembly space x rocket 😂
At 4.11 minutes what is the circle thing in the left of the screen is that space station
The Part (hot stage) between the Booster and the Ship
