We had planned to release the Super Heavy video after this one, but we lost all our hard drive data, leaving only an old backup. Seeing how this video underperformed, it wasn't worth the effort to start all over again, and we took a break from KZbin. Now, even this is outdated, so we might remake it and do the Super Heavy video then.

[@greggv8]

In grade school I read a book that was old then. The story was a woman who lived alone was surprised to find a crew had moved onto the farm next door and was building a rocketship, out of steel. Shortly before the rocket was to launch, she stowed away on it. One detail I remember was she had a magnetic tack hammer she always carried. The rocket's instruments were going crazy, the cause was discovered to be the magnetic hammer, after the crew found the woman and her hammer. She offered to throw it out of the ship but they couldn't do that. Instead they found a place to fix it in place then recalibrated the instruments. These days we have BocaChicaGal on KZbin and a bunch of people who set up shop next door to build rockets out of steel...

do it please

Please do!. This is undoubtedly one of the best video I've ever seen on KZbin. Insane graphics and very informative ❤

[@DexOfOne]

The fact that this is already semi-inaccurate is not a factor of video quality but rather a testament to the rapid innovation of SpaceX.

[@dhargarten]

What has changed?

[@thiesenf]

Imagine if the CAD drawings the SpaceX engineers works on would release them as public domain... :-)

[@DexOfOne]

@@dhargarten A few minor things. The position of the front flaps and construction of the nosecone to name a few.

[@kotor1357]

@@thiesenf and let their competitors use them? Would be cool but would make SpaceX Bankrupt... I can totally see a company, not spending much on R&D and just copying, slightly modifying and selling it's services like 10x cheaper....

[@julianemery718]

@@kotor1357 Funny you should say that, Boeing decided to copy the idea, as well as a random Chinese company. Of course this was what Musk wanted, for the idea of stainless steel, reusable rocketry, to be used in many places by many people. Because if it's successful, it shouldn't be kept from being used by anyone.

[@richardkiely7537]

One of the best Starship vids I've ever seen!!! Jaw dropping work!

In not too long, we will look back at these sort of videos in astonishment. The amount of progress that will occur in the next few decades will be historic.

[@laurenthomas9344]

That’s all I wanted to see were the tiles. Lol.

[@kevj3571]

I just want to say the animation and breakdown of each component helps everyone get a better understanding of the entire starship. More videos like this would definitely be helpful for those needing a clearer picture. Great job and i hope to see more videos like this. I hope elon and other platforms get to see your great work. Thanks again.

[@CURSEDIMAGES]

The editor is so funny @ 00:42 they put a truck driving backwards top right 😂

[@ClebyHerris]

That’s hilarious 😂

[@3nityC]

That's rivian racing in reverse

[@ClebyHerris]

@@3nityC the thing about this, is that it can actually happen. Electric motors can spin the same speed backwards but often times limited due to instability

[@clevergirl4457]

i wish this video is recommended to the general viewer not just Spacex or rocketry fans... it's perfect as an introductory video for people who probably don't know what's happening at Boca Chica. it deserves more attention
