It’s actually so weird that orbital launches have become so commonplace that a week without any launches seems so unnatural
I wonder how long it'll be before there's another week without any orbital launches. I wonder how long before we start thinking of the last week without orbital launches the same way with think of the last week without commercial jet flights connecting the world.
@@Somerandom1922 that’s actually really interesting. If air travel and shipping were to disappear for a week it would make a noticeable dent in infrastructure. I wonder how long until space travel is the same way.
@@Somerandom1922A week with reallyyyyyyyy bad weather
Jeff: oh!
@@Generic_Noob Everywhere on earth? Even just in the US there are often launches from both coasts and occasionally Texas. Not to mention China, India, Japan, Europe, Russia, and others.
It'll be a while before the rest of the world has a reliable launch per week without the US, but it's not that far off.

This should become the series moto 😂
Blunderbirds will always hold a dear place in my heart
I,m not a nerd I,m just good at more then 1 subject
FR
Omg...the graphics work @1:59 is simply priceless. Please continue the nerd-level graphic arts, it resonates so much you cannot believe.
Honestly, seeing all the physical switches and buttons of starliner is kinda a breath of fresh air. There's something incredibly satisfying about physical switches and buttons.
1:59 -- "hollywood pls hire me" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thats gotta be close to one of the hottest places to work, on the side of S30, stainless steel and black tiles to your front, TX sun to your back. I hope these guys are making some serious money.
Man thats wierd having no launches at all. Its been so long that that's been the case
matt, your edition skills are so good, that i couldn't believe when i saw that epic CGI scene of the starship landing on the water, i am currently amazed and i think hollywood would hire you on the spot. I am currently crying because of how good that editing was and how amazing and epic and incredible it was, there isn't any better way of showing the starship landing on the water, and if there is another way of showing it, it probably is because it was made by you and your amazing editing skills, which are indistinguishable from reality, because of how good they are.
1:56 I'd hire you ;)
Just opened up RUclips hoping for a Matt Lowne vid, not disappointed!
6:26 just finished reading the unwind dystology recently so this is extra cool to hear
I was stunned when I saw the interior of the StarLiner. Reminiscent of Apollo, all the switches and such. Looks like a 707 cockpit! Compare that to Crew Dragon, just a touchscreen for each occupant, redundancy built in I'm sure, as all panels are probably the same, depending on who's operating it is all. Just a complete paradigm shift is all. Boeing - OLD SCHOOL. SpaceX - THE FUTURE!
I just noticed something. Their about to build a 41 engine first stage.
The bottom of the launch tower takes the most heat,then has to cool before catching the top stage. Allow me to make suggestion. The metal of the launch tower needs to be cooled before the 41 engine first stage is launched and captured.
If not it will be weakened.
Look people the Rapters are glowing orange but still contain one hell of an explosion inside.thats impressive.
I watch the Kerbell videos while I play on my green bean space program save.
3:42 dam
Wow, I didn't expect that at some point we'd be calling the lack of orbital launches in a week "weird"
Stuckliner
Are they printing helium gaskets right now?
I really wanna see ship 29 and booster 11 now
0:10 wait i missed some flights?
Interior of Starliner looks like a throw back to the 1970s.
Almost. A little bit later, actually; the software interface the crew has to use is…..Windows.
Its great to feel like things are really chugging at starbase
2:01 Love it!
Starliner looks so cramped and outdated compared to dragon
Yeah but it's another option for getting people to space and more options is very very good. Soon commercial stations are going to start being a thing and having only one viable crew launch vehicle is not gonna cut it. Hopefully some other companies get their crew launch vehicles ready to go soon
Hi, Matt
Tower 2 will be just that.
A Tower,
no OLM,
no BQD
no SQD
no Water Deluge Plate
no 2nd Tank Farm.
Just a basic
"Catch Tower".
IMHO.
So. 2nd tower for the risky bit with minimal infrastructure at risk... maybe so.
This was probably the last week in history w/o orbital launches... hehe.
I can’t even imagine if you were like… yo NASA, or ULA, or whoever, we need you to replace your entire heat shield…. And how long that would take them?? And these guys are about to do it in like a month???
SpaceX - the two towers
😁😉
Elon!! There’s been a second starship!
Maybe Star Liner should not have skipped "Patch Tuesday".😂
Of course it was 6 miles off target. It had lost a chunk of its control authority.
Hopefully all the tile attachments, removals, and reattachedments doesn't compromise the 3mm thick integral SS that all the pins are welded to. Just watching those dudes drill off the tiles makes me worry about their abilities to stop their drills before they go to deep. 18k timrs three pins is 48,000 drilling actions without once going too far.
That was one of our concerns about ordering maintenance and change out on shuttle; it had to be ‘worth the risk’ that we wouldn’t be causing an additional complication in the process.
The water lanidng animation is really good! like my name is walter hartwell white. i live at 308 negra arroyo lane, albuquerque new mexico. this is my confession. joke for the first 3sec i was confused (i just woker up)
why 18000 tiles and not large plates?
8:39 3 engines reached about 50% more thrust than a single raptor? I assume they use multiple of those and dont fly with a delta heavy config?
Ship 30s work way condemn other V1 ship flights if it's going to take forever to switch out all of the tiles just for it to survive
what was the most recent week other than this one without launches?
How much heavier are the new tiles and a bladed material than the old heat shield? Since the new tiles are twice as strong as the old tiles, I have to believe that they’re at least a pound heavier. Also, the blade of material is going to have some mass let’s say half a pound. So, let’s estimate that the new heat shield will weigh one and a half pounds times 18,000 or 27,000 extra pounds. That’s about 13 1/2 tons. Of deadweight that reduces starships payload to orbit. The ablative material on the Apollo capsule which was 13 feet in diameter which had a surface area on the bottom of about 550 feet weighed 3000 pounds. so the average per square foot weight of that ablative material was 5 to 6 pounds. Now they are probably not gonna put nearly as much oblated material on the starship as they did on the Apollo capsule since it’s only a back up, but I think we can safely say that it got away something and a half pound estimate per, each of the 18,000 tiles currently on the starship is not a bad estimate.
I believe the weight of a single tile is 0.3 to 1.0kg (yeah, that's still vague). So, 18 tons on the outside. The improved tile is maybe 30% heavier, so maybe 5-8 tons of additional weight with the ablative material thrown in. The Version 2 (due to launch on 6th or 7th (Starship 32 was the last V1) has 100t cargo capacity... but V3 has 200t cargo capacity (with 35 engines rated at more than 269t and about 25% more fuel.
I wouldn't sweat the weight of the new heat shielding.
The simple answer is, “I don’t know, but….”. Methinks Elon’s goal is….get to total reusability first- whatever it takes, including a fully reusable heat shield, knowing Starship has unprecedented capability at the moment- AND, that upgraded Starship are already in work, anyway. Once know what an ironclad heat shield looks like, can start figuring out what it takes to get ‘efficient’ on later models. Remember, the Falcon 9 that we know now, took over 50 flights to actually get to. - Dave Huntsman
Holywood pls hire me lmao
Liked and subscribed.
3:41 welp
80k tile replacement. WOW! Why not reuse around OLM or OLIT. At leat frugal
No; the tiles are very, very fragile.
Won’t take about a year to build the second tower?
Hard to say anymore. Florida has EPA issues (all over again). Construction design Should be about done now, but Elon might opt to improve it again... so...
The tower will take only 3-4 months to raise, but not sure if OLM and deluge plates are being installed.
I’m guessing it’ll be two sections taller, with a deluge trough, and more-robust fixtures. Also, regarding the launch of number five, I can’t see them take a huge risk of damaging tower one if somethinggoes awry. I think they’re going to land that thing in the ocean right next to it at least two more times before they risk it near the tower, but that’s just my guess.
Here at 35s, hope I'm first!
DIARRHEA
You are the best 🎉🎉🎉

I wouldn't call it a mighty success, let me get this clear, this thing aint going amy further then leo, blue origin your the last one standing complete the mission. Cave Johnson where done here
If he's going to try a capture then maybe it's a good idea to make a second tower lol OOPS! Should have finished the video, you took the words right out of my mouth ;-)
first
