While it will need deorbit burns in the future, it does not need a “slow down burn”, but reenters as full speed, as shown in your video. Furthermore, while, as a space nerd, I appreciate your deep dive into FFSC, it doesn’t contribute to answering your video’s title question: what now?

There’s no need to have “left overs” the data is transmitted and recorded on the ground. This is simply a DIFFERENT type of development as has been repeatedly stated before and after the program started. These are TESTS. Not demonstrations. Literally every rocket will need some kind of explosive testing on the ground unless it uses pre existing but slightly modified hardware. This happened with the Saturn V that had many many explosions on the ground But what’s different is SpaceX is taking an iterative and incremental development cycle in flight. Flying vehicles in a hard to simulate and realistic environment and making changes based on how far they got. And it’s evidently working. They’re currently matching the dev time of the saturn V with 1/10th the resources. The last 3 flights have progressed significantly and both SpaceX and NASA agree they have been successful. The progression has gotten to the point they’re attempting a never before seen flip and landing from orbital velocity this year and have already flown 3 tests in a year which is remarkable given the challenges in cadence and regulatory factors. It genuinely seems like the only people who think this approach is bad or that it’s not going to work are either rabid musk haters, people who don’t know a think about spaceflight engineering or pessimists who just don’t like it

Biggest thing about the heat tiles is they are standardised and will help reduce servicing cost massively. The shuttle wasnt really economically viable with just the re-using the airframe, because all the tiles were custom made and each launch required a new set, which basically meant there was no cost advantage over throwaways like the soyuz.

As I recall, the Shuttle had plenty of flights where an antenna in the tail communicated up through TDRS. The Columbia loss in 2003 was all the scarier in real time for this, because the loss of signal was not expected.

I recently got Starlink for my farmhouse. Moreso out of necessity as a lot of rural America has very few options for internet. Starlink had the best performance out of all of the other companies like Dish Network and US Cellular and it isn't even close. While still not as fast as fiber optic, I don't see that being an option anytime soon and I'm still averaging around 100mbps out in the middle of nowhere. The service has been great and very stable, which surprised me. The per month cost is competitive with the other providers, it's just the $600 start up fee that is a bit pricey. Overall, I'm very happy with the service.

⁠@@TheOwenMajor Correct (believe it or not, but metallurgy student here), but despite its weight, stainless steel is: Compared to aluminum alloys: Considerably more resistant to high temperatures, it has a higher melting point, it maintains its mechanical properties at much higher temperatures, it does not expand and contract as much when heated and cooled (all important traits during reentry) and it is less conductive, meaning that less fuel is likely to evaporate when the exterior of the spacecraft is at ambient temperature. Compared to CFRPs : Considerably cheaper, better at handling extreme temperatures (both the extreme cold of the fuel and the extreme heat of reentry) as CFRPs can simultaneously become very brittle when cold and degrade when heated, it’s easier to use when building large components (no need for an autoclave, plus stainless steel is relatively easy to weld and to machine). Compared to titanium: Cheaper and easier to work with as it is easier to weld and to machine. The stainless steel alloy that they’re using is actually quite ductile while titanium is quite hard and low in elasticity. This is great for strength-to-weight ratio, but not for machinability (yes, that’s a word).

I thoroughly enjoy your channel and the in-depth explanations given. I also enjoyed the Miata humor. But what I enjoyed most was the more positive tone of your episode than of many other channels that I've seen. They all seemed more excited about Starship failing then succeeding. Some of the details in your episode need a little clarifying. But I gave you license due to the rapidity of your production. I know you usually take more time to do your research. Still, I enjoyed it.

nice!! 10:35, I was really hoping someone would stabilize this footage to show how much it was tumbling. You did it! Thanks!

I will say one advantage of methane over kerosene or hydrogen. It's it's temperature that is stored. it's very close to temperatures of Liquid Oxygen, so rockets that use Methalox can use "common dome", without thick and complicated insulation between tanks. LH can freeze solid LOX. LOX can freeze Kerosene. Methalox doesnt have that issue so it makes construction of rockets much simpler.

The grid reduces or eliminates Mach dependent movement of the aerodynamic center. So the forces remain concentrated at the rotational axis. Meaning it only has to overcome the subsonic, lower torque value. An F-22 horizontal stabilizer at mach 2 is probably going to experience just as much, or more force, due to rearward shift of Aerodynamic center from the MAC/4 to C/2 position.

For most of the Space Shuttle's operating life, it _did_ have the ability to communicate with mission control. It was low-bandwidth, though, so they weren't going to get video through the link, let alone high-definition video, which wasn't really a thing yet.

You don't at all see any of the heat tiles or how they react to the plasma, and it was all shot from the seat that was furthest away from the windows. All other reentry clips have either been shot from the ground, or are from engineering cameras meant to observe how the parachutes deploy (meaning you are looking backwards into the plasma trail being left behind from the spacecraft). The only other good high quality reentry footage we have besides Starship is that of the Varda capsule entering the atmosphere, and even that footage was only released a few weeks ago.

One thing I would eventually like to see them use the payload capability for, is another space-based telescope. When telescopes like Hubble and Webb were designed, every last bit of weight added was heavily scrutinized, plus it had to fit inside of whatever was launching it. Even with those constraints just look at what Hubble and Webb has ALREADY given us, which is incredible. Now take those past size and weight constraints, and being limited only by Starship's capabilities, think of how much greater resolution, detail, and scientific data we could capture with a telescope that is exponentially more capable than ever before. The telescopes up there right now have identified planets in the "goldilocks" zone of habitability, but to gather more evidence or even proof of life on them, we just might need to stuff something inside the Starship capable of making such detections. We still might not find any extra evidence or proof, but the thought is tantalizing enough to spend the time, money, and effort to try.

I really hope SpaceX will share maximum quality footage from re-entry. I need to print it on the wall. Seeing plasma from livestream was incredible.

YES. As Montgomery Scott might say, "That's the ticket laddie." kzread.info/dash/bejne/a2SZycGeorLIdNI.htmlfeature=shared&t=232 I've long held, and only recently run across, the view that the proper way to do interplanetary travel is to build things that don't have to deal with escaping surface gravity wells or reentry aerodynamics. Starship can be the first link in an interplanetary, intermodal supply chain. Which is why I think it should never have been called Starship to begin with. Now we'll have to think up something else...

Towards the end, the shuttle didn't go into blackout. There was enough of a hole in the plasma cloud behind it that they could uplink to TDRSS the whole way down.

It seems that the wings of the second stage - Starship - may not ensure a symmetric distribution of drag forces during entry into the atmosphere, and, hence, its uncontrolled rotation is possible. It is a bit different solution than in the case of the space shuttles. In addition, there should also be a horizontal flight to cool its drag surfaces, not just a vertical gravity drop operation.

My understanding is that at some time in Shuttle program there was no comms black out because there were enough geo stationary sats to communicate with it from the top side...

Starship uses starlink, SpaceX’s own satellite constellation system, which other companies, individuals and nations use to get high speed internet. Theres around 5,400 operational satellites in orbit, with a final goal of around 40,000 satellites, most of which will have satellite-to-satellite communication which allows for very low latency. It also allows SpaceX to get better reentry data for the Starship since they’re closer to it and theres a lot of satellites which could allow them to hopefully connect with one during reentry and not experience a blackout.

@@DontThinkSo11SpaceX has had engines fail in flight, just like the N1 did. But it has advantages that the N1 didn't have, partly due to hindsight about what went wrong with the N1. Two of the big issues with the N1 were that they couldn't properly test the engines before launch, and that if an engine exploded it would take down the rocket. Thanks to poor quality controls on the initial run of engines, debris in the engines made the RUD of a single engine - and therefore the whole rocket - relatively likely. These were both solvable problems, but they didn't get a chance before the program was terminated. It was never really the number of engines on the N1 that was the issue. SpaceX has mitigated the worst issues the N1 had, which is lack of quality control during assembly, lack of test firing before launch, and lack of shielding between engines that allows even a multi-engine-out scenario to be potentially survivable.
