Hey hey! My name is Marcus House and I like space stuff. I hope to help you like space stuff too assuming you don't already.
Eight years before I was born, Apollo 17 returned from the moon (1972). I sadly missed the most exciting adventure humans have ever experienced. Since I was young I've dreamed of being able to witness the next big milestone. We've seen no further manned missions outside Low Earth Orbit in my years, but this is about to change with SpaceX and Blue Origin pushing humanity back into the new space race alongside NASA. Other wonderful new companies such as Rocketlab are increasing the excitement with smaller payloads as well. This is an amazing time to be alive and I want to share all I can with you. Historically I'm a huge fan of Kerbal Space Program (KSP) which is where my KZread channel started. KSP2 is around the corner, so we may well get back into that at some point soon as well.

"Space is warm because the sun heats the spacecraft, even reflects off things and heats it further. That's why the ISS has huge radiators." If this is truly the case, how do the radiators work? How can they reject heat if they themselves are being heated? Do they have to constantly be in the shade (unlike that which was pictured?). Or is my BS meter spot on?
star ship ❤
Just like nasa fixes mistakes, with magic.
Um, no, it isn't. It is shit.
There is no way they cant contanimate wherever they land in the solarsystem or even from orbit -even discharing plastic or metal with inbaked dna landing everywhere night start processes like on enceladus or europa or even mars
I am sure there will be a bigger and adapted version of a cryocooler. Since they very reliable, have almost no moving parts and can run for years if not decades with no maintenance. They are used to cool helium down to 6K, so that is for sure the active site of cooling in space.
Meanwhile nasa and their broke ass Starliner is rotting in orbit
Why is this a problem in 2024? Wasn’t it solved decades ago? The Saturn V second and third stages used lox and lh2 and the temperature differential between the boiling point of lh2 and the freezing point of lox is much higher than between lox and liquid methane.
4:37 Test firings at Massey's will blow steamy exhaust across the Rio Grande River. Directly opposite, there is a HUGE square zone in Mexico surrounded by a perimeter road that is a keep-out zone during tests. Check out RGV Aerial.
Why not park th space station into a space junk yard or send it to the sun.?
Maybe your grandson's kids will see starship land on the noon 😂
My brain hurts.
The solution is obvious
Astrobiotic should pick up the tab for Viper rover, because Boeing would in their place.
marcus has a cold.....i am prepping for next flight
A few days ago I watched a video of someone high up at Ariane laughing and saying that reusable SpaceX rockets were just a dream. He also said, "They're not supermen. Whatever they can do, we can do".
Slowly spin the rocket on its axis. That will even out sun exposed sun shaded areas. Still the tank will receive a heat flux depending on its orientation relative to the sun. At worst it s gonna be over an area equivalent to length times 2 radius. 450sqm. That s 1.2kw per sq metre in Earth vicinity. Factor reflectivity and you get the heat flux you have to compensate. I guess it should not be less than 10pc. So... That comes at around 50kw. A sunshade would help a lot obviously. The sunshade could be made of solar panels. Double usage! It s going to be interesting to see the sulolution they come up with.
10:52 did anyone else see Donkey Kong!!
Is it finally going to do something new, instead of repeating the 1960s?
So this is some kind of shameless Elon fellating site?
When will Spacex realize that Starship is missing a pair of spherical fuel tanks at its base?
Are the workers engineers or iron workers?
12:50 all Atlas V rides have been sold Marcus.
I wonder how they adjust for the potential of a few dozen humans living on board. The nose cone on the passenger model will effectively be a heat generator.
What I don't understand is why they don't do a test tower catch from a hop first.
Nobody really knows for sure
Mr Marcus House. I have seen them all, joined quite a few, watched some when they lost their way. You are the Number 1. Thank you for all your hard work. Per Ardua Ad Astra.
Use the rover AS the "mass simulator". Then with the rover ON the moon, someone will find the funding to make it useful because the hardest part is already done.
Think the engines are not reusable yet though.
Thank you Marcus House and the Team. Great Video this week ! Go Space X
The obvious low weight power solution for active heat removal is RTG's. But high cost would make this option difficult.
Thanks Marcus for the weekly starship and spacex updates!
I want my fireworks. When?
Ep: 2 not available 😢
Is that all. Between the House and Westminster they get through 200 million in adult pampers.
A question about testing the chopstix? Why aren't they doing low altitude practice catches with something like the original hopper? Low weight, fuel and altitude and just prove out the basics. I'd think it was obvs and Spacex usually love a test regime. So what am I missing?
Have any of you Space Station Guru's ever mentioned to the Chinese, that sometimes we need Potatoes. I get it. Pots are heavy, but my, It certainly gets things moving.
"Why spend money on space, why not clean up the environment?" People are doing that "Why not spend the money feeding people?" Yeah thats getting done too. "Ok, fair do's"
Just letting you know that the way you pronounced the name "Josef Aschbacher" basically turned an ash-creek-er into an ass-cheek-er. It is an unfortunate name for english speakers to try to pronounce. Funny though.
Glad to have you back Marcus! Hope you had a good few weeks off but it is great to have your weekly updates up again!
Hey, thanks!
Impressive analysis. Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Either Launch with VIPER or No Launch, any other combo seems stupid.
So much moar!
They need to spin ISS before deorbiting it. 68 rpm.
🤛🏼(▨_▨¬)🤜🏼 I'm feelin' that SpaceX rhythm. ⛽⛽✈🚀🕛🚀🕜🚀🕚🚀🕘🚀🚀 ⍼
I'm sure SpaceX, in collaboration with TESLA, could build something 100x better than VIPER for 450mil. And, I'm sure it would look incidentally better as well. I wish they'd pick it up.
I'm really enjoying your content. It's authentic, well delivered, timely, and informative. Thank you 😊
Thankyou! Love the profile pic. Inspired me to grab a few slices.
@@MarcusHouse ha ha! How to tell someone you're Australian without telling them you're Australian 😉. Also, I wanted to say it was nice to see an Aussie commentator doing this, but I didn't want to be one of those Aussies
@@bradbarker8286 Always wonderful seeing the Aussies here in the comments. We only make up 4-5% of the entire audience, so I'm always on the lookout.
Looks like the Sharships shown have been through a lot - there are a bunch of dings and dents (possibly some due to where something may have been attached inside) E.g. at the two isolated bolts on the untiled portion at [7:18] and top of the cylindrical portion at [8:42]
Will SpaceX develop truly reusable heat shields? Cause I'm not sure they even exist right now.
hey did you know that nuclear fisson/fusion thermal rocket engines can use there pure heat output that can actaly use pure liquid water as a hypergolic rocket fuel by the way. thats what is the real reason why nasa orgnaly wanted nuclear thermal rocket engines so they could simply just get rid of the need of super cold ciryogentic lquid rocket fuel use.
also super heat water fast entoguh to ignison point for hypergolic rocket fuel with nuclear fission and fusion reactors in nuclear thermal rockets is due to the fact liquid water itself is actaly EXRTEMLY flamble itself if heated super pradly to igsion pont makes it qute exposive and flamble. its why snow can catch fire and burn with or wihout mehtine in the mix if you got a hot entogh igtion sorch for it. heck this is the same exact real reason also why flame retartant foam and flame retarned fiber blankets are needed to deal with some of teh hotest known tpyes of chemcal fires is that if the fire is hot enotguh any water or heck even co2 gas as well will bascly becomes even more oxygen and fuel to a hot entogh chemcal fire thew oxydaton is very very very very bad.
