Elon Musk SpaceX Demo 2 Post Launch Press Conference

[@QuantumBraced]

Elon always speaks from the heart, he's not the most fluent speaker, but I'll always choose to listen to him over rehearsed and cliched PR people. Not that there's anything wrong with what they said, just boring...

[@Zicetec2000]

With Elon, I always think his mind is working in overdrive, thats why his speech always seems like he's not always in the momemnt, his thoughts are constantly "What can be improved, how can we make this more efficient, right, how can this be applied to Starship" but thats my thoughts on Mr Musk

[@kosminuskosminus]

WHEN ELON MUSK SPEAKS ONE MUST LISTEN WITH MUCH ATTENTION

[@Mrcaffinebean]

Totally agree, you can tell he is really thinking about what he wants to say.

[@fcgHenden]

@@MrcaffinebeanI think he's always thinking of something else during these kinds of interviews. Imagine being responsible for the company whose goal is to deliver live humans to space... being in the middle of that moment... then also thinking how to move electric mobility, energy and distribution forward... Creating a new boring system, an in-orbit data network and planning for Mars by connecting those together, like starlink could've mitigated all LOS during the mission, dragon boosters will be used in Roadster 2, Tesla motor will be used in Starship, Dragon solar panels to optimize Tesla solar panels, Starlink will be funding Mars and now maybe Falcon-Dragon can too. All that and being asked "what would you tell people with all the riots and the pandemic..." Like if it was me, I'd be like "Dude I have a lot on my plate rn. Fixing racism and riots ain't my job! Tell your government that!" But who knows, maybe Elon will tackle that eventually. 🤷‍♂️

[@BIOSHOCKFOXX]

PR people usually follow a certain script, hence why it feels...robotic when they talk, it feels like they are forced to talk about whatever, I mean, it is their job, but...hope you understand what I mean :D

I'm Russian and I'm getting tears of this great achievement. So beautiful, amazing and it's a good example to the Humanity! I showed it to my Son 7 years old and he says wow!!! Thank you Elon and amazing team for everything - you give us hope and HUGE MOTIVATION to continue the DISCOVERY!!!!

[@maltamo]

Damn man, I'm sad for you Russian. This show was all about 'Murica, like they are the best at everything. Not a single time did they thank Russia for bringing astronauts to the ISS for the last 9 years. Of course, all of this was great, but it mostly sounded like a political propaganda. Like when they arrived at the ISS, it was bob, doug, chris, and those two other russian astronauts. Anyway, glad that Russia was here for us the last 9 years. Since they are not capable of thanking you, I do it here on behalf of a lot of earth citizen I guess

[@krueppelkind]

Hey can you ask Putin to hand over the requested ICBMs to Elon? Thanks!

[@MyNameIsApl]

You must be joking? Why they must speak about "Russia for bringing astronauts to the ISS for the last 9 years"?

[@TraditionalAnglican]

M D - No. that was probably Apollo 11, the moon landing. This just restores a capability we had for the better part of 50 years before the Space Shuttle was cancelled in 2011. The big leap will be when Starship stops imitating the KSP “Explosion Factory” & starts getting people to the moon, Mars & elsewhere.

[@M.-.D]

TraditionalAnglican Apollo and the spaceshuttle missions were both very significant advancements. For me and many others the idea of people having an access bridge to space has never existed before today. To fly in space was to be a career astronaut, with a private startup leading and owning much of the innovation we have an opportunity to democratise the experience to any who are interested. SpaceX is the first to achieve a reusable orbitable rocket.

Feelings at this time. In 1969 when American astronauts landed on the moon I was approximately 19 years of age. Now in 2020 I am approximately 69 years of age, give or take months of difference. The point is that 50 years of my life has been wasted as I watching all that has transpired in the Star Trek worlds with what could have been. All that 50 years I was considering "well if we were still traveling from planet to planet (at least the moon) we could be learning". But there was so much strife and trouble in the world making it impossible to qualify to join the peoples and worlds of that advanced kind. That is the type of language that Star Trek spoke about with regard to is a world stable enough. Well that sounds a little simple to believe there is a group out there that we could JOIN - but my feelings are of time that has passed and we have not been learning and inventing and advancing. The original space program was credited with so many inventions that were developed and now being used in various fields of all our lives. It is good that we have at least positioned ourselves with a space station in orbit that makes it clear we have not lost all ambition as related to space. Now we are here, at the beginning of the future. It is clear we have the type of people in place that will help us get to a meaningful position in space and they have the backing of the powers that also believe it is important to grow. At least the span of my life has seen three major events of space history. I can only hope that it will see the planting of foot prints on the moon once again. I would like to see if those electric vehicles are still charged and ready to go!

[@donaldespeut9644]

NASA should reflect on how archaic and sloppy the docking area of the space station looks, Needs updating drastically. No way could this area handle an emergency, In contrast the Space X craft looks sleek and clean. Instead of accusing Elon Musk of lying, the NASA guy should get his shit together and modernize the docking area of the space station. Wonder if the Russian side looks as crappy.

How much did this launch cost alltogether? And how much does a Roscosmos flight cost?

[@smogunner]

@@thekaiser4333 This launch costs around US$ 55 million by seat against US$ 85 million by seat if they had used a Roscosmos ship. As two astronauts were sent, NASA is saving US$ 60 million.

[@EarthToNomad]

The Kaiser much cheaper/safer and better way to launch people into space! Today, the last piece of Russian monopoly on the world has ended. We, as a new generation enter the new age of space exploration. “Trampoline is working”

[@thekaiser4333]

@@smogunner - Hard to believe. OK Let's check the truth. Nasa says on their own website, they handed out a contract in Sept. 2014 to bring two astronauts to the ISS for 2 600 million dollars to space x. That puts one seat at US$ 1.300 million, not 55 million. Why are you lying to me?

[@ricardopieper11]

​@@thekaiser4333 Because of all the technology that had to be developed since that date. In 2014 they didn't land the boosters yet. Elon says again and again that the whole Dragon project was in collaboration with Nasa (as you've proven yourself), although it certainly serves SpaceX's interests. So far it has costed 1.3b per seat, but now they have the means to put as much people as they like into space. There is inherent value for Nasa to be independent of roscosmos. Perhaps once the technology is delivered, each flight will cost 55mi and the whole point of Spacex's economics is to bring this price down and down.

Something has happened to me during all of this. I'm not a crying person at all. From the start of the launch I cried. The reached destination I cried. I'm watching this eyes are watering away. Very touching to me plus uplifting with all the other negative drama happening in our world. This is positivity for humanity but they would rather spread the darkness. Thanks Space X for giving me hope happiness excitement future to look forward too. I hope the way I feel spreads faster than a virus. Because this has made me feel pretty darn awesome! Elon Musk is a pretty touching kind of guy. I'm hoping all ,AI turns out with his passion. Hear that program in passion. Lol

[@myfavoritemartian1]

-I just love the spot where Doug and Bob stop, hunch down and look up to see the Dragon capsule atop the Falcon 9 rocket. It looks like Bob says, "They are going to put us WHERE?" -When that Falcon 9 rocket lit off, there were only three people in the whole world still breathing. I watched Alan Shepard back in 1961 and felt much the same. That first time in a new vehicle will always be special. -Apollo 8 was another one. The first time humans flew on the giant Saturn 5 rocket. They were also the first crew to leave orbit and voyage through planetary space. They were the first to orbit the Moon. They were the first to see the dark side of the moon. Apollo 8 needs it's own movie, it was a masterpiece.

Have you ever flown in a plane for a few hours before? I used to take 16 hour flights, non-stop, when my parents lived across the country. That is nothing compared to what it's like in space orbit. The first couple of days might be fun but overall it is very painful. Living on another planet that is not very hospitable to human life, will probably be about the most painful experience man can endure. Also why, even though it's scientific fact that aliens would have to exist in the near infinite world, there's no way they're going to get here when they are millions of light-years away. Even communication would take millions of years. So even that is basically impossible. I mean, I hate to be a pessimist, but unless some kind of unlikely wormhole dealio is able to be discovered, it doesn't seem like we'll ever be able to get to another planet that's nearly as good as the one we are on. I would love to be wrong though.

"Time for space x to deliver" What has nasa done in 60 years they haven't progressed any in way shape or form

[@bepowerful2160]

In 2006, under President George W. Bush, the space agency started a program to get commercial companies to begin delivering cargo to the International Space Station. The idea was to save money for taxpayers by having NASA buy delivery services rather than own and operate its own cargo ships. This would also provide a financial incentive for the private sector to develop new spacecraft that could be used both by NASA and by other paying customers. The plan worked. In 2012, an unoccupied robotic SpaceX capsule successfully docked with the International Space Station - a first for a commercially owned and operated spaceship. Having companies take astronauts to the outpost was a natural extension of this cargo program. NASA announced its commercial crew program in 2010, under President Barack Obama. Companies that received initial funding for developing spaceships that could serve as space taxis included Blue Origin, Boeing, Paragon Space Development Corp., Sierra Nevada Corp. and United Launch Alliance. In 2014, NASA selected SpaceX and Boeing to transport its astronauts, awarding them contracts worth $6.8 billion. A year later, the agency named the four astronauts who would eventually fly in these spaceships - including Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley, the two crew members assigned to the SpaceX test flight that launched on Saturday. The shift to commercial crew-transportation services in 2010, coming just as the agency's 30-year-old space shuttle program was winding down, marked a real change for NASA. Many were skeptical, especially in Congress. Bridenstine credits former NASA Administrator Charles Bolden, who served under Obama, for his efforts to make it happen.

So, are the Russians going to go bankrupt, or is there any way for them to compete, price-wise maybe?

[@tyronetca]

Russian program is state-owned so won’t go bankrupt. However, will be increasingly difficult for them to survive without 3rd party revenue from selling seats.

[@Tounushi]

@@tyronetca They could sell seats for India while they build their program. Unless Russia gets its act together (they never will), they'll slide towards irrelevance as an international launch provider. They'll have plenty of domestic space demand, sure, but very few would trust them with a space monopoly, especially manned launches.

[@jamesahern9864]

Let's hope the space race heats up and we achieve more than we can now imagine

[@NotOurRemedy]

Tounushi I don’t believe Russia will be able to offer India a better deal than SPACEX/Boeing. That’s the thing. At a certain point being cheap and simple at all costs leads to being too expensive and outdated given a long enough timeline. I wouldn’t be surprised if Crew dragon isn’t cheaper than Soyuz soon. Better rocket, More seats, more cargo. Spacex will probably selling re-used dragons and re-used falcon 9s soon.

[@Tounushi]

@@NotOurRemedy When they get Starship into mass production, I wonder if they'll discontinue and sell off the Falcon and the Dragon?
