You should probably put “KSC Flyover” at the beginning of the video title along with the date. The rest of the included topics being discussed would follow that. Just a quick idea.

[@johnmoruzzi7236]

The ULA SPOC / SMARF building is becoming the second VIF and will be building a second VLP (Vulcan Launch Platform) for when Atlas is done and Vulcan gets some serious launch cadence…..

[@Imagine_Beyond]

Go Blue Origin! I wish them all the best on their New Glenn rocket. It is definitely about time to launch

[@seansmith7974]

F Blue Origin.. The only thing they are good at is using other people's ideas and suing SpaceX to slow them down.

[@Grandwigg]

At least my cursed 'Eat, Sleep, Scrub, Repeat' t-shirt from Scrubtember isn't responsible this time.

[@01_SPACE_C0WB0Y]

I feel like the catch tower is for logistical reasons. With a high enough cadence and multiple launch pads it may make sense to have a dedicated return area for ships.

[@Grandwigg]

I can definitely see that possibility. I wonder if they would make it on a way that leaves the way for launching in the future, though. Single purpose towers when the originals are dual seems like a viable, but stopgap to me. A way to get multiple vehicles down in the near term, but later launch. I don't know the logistics and infrastructure anywhere near enough to do more than speculate, though

Environists are ignoring the major concern about the Falcon 9: Insufficient Pointyness. This is causing a multitude of problems with the launches and must be corrected ASAP. Without a nice pointy tip rockets have a tendency to just fall over and cause a tragic disaster in the launch area. An expanded version of the common pencil sharpener could be developed. Like the standard version used in all schools it should have a disc on the side to adapt the cutting blades to various diameters of rocket. The rocket shavings produced coul easily be recycled. This Rocket Sharpener will prevent many, many saddening accidents.

I don't know if it occurred to any yet, but... if only in terms of delivering payload to space, Starship is almost ready, isn't it? Eg NASA and the US military could probably already contract them to "launch our big cargo to space, we don't care about recovering the boosters, we'll pay".

Could you please add visible overlays explaining what REAL UNITS are represented by the Amurikan units supplied by the paperwork and the script. Is it really NECESSARY that you just read Amurikan press releases?

[@Grandwigg]

As an American, I too, prefer the metric system (there isa whole thing about why we don use it, and literal sea piracy is partly to blame). An overlay is a good idea. Some attitudes are unhelpful. Given this particular monthly video is about launches from, well, America, local units are what is available for locations and such. it is logical that the imperial system, originally developed in Europe, is used.

Catch tower in KSC: Launch from StarBase...Catch at KSC!

[@WerewolfSlayer91]

Arguable the most important flight. Not even close. Short of james Web, starship is the pivot point after 2025. It's like having horses change to tractors. It's a paradigme shift. It will launch orion in it's payload section and an emergency dragon capsule for spare when it fails. As it is private companies for airplanes it is now the agee for Rockets. The exception is that spacex is way ahead in it's thinking and goals, cuting the other companies seemingly "huge" goals to a one use tractor. Once the railroad to space is built, infratructure will soon populate it's space and new industries will emerge. People do not comprehend it yet even though it has successfuly made orbit( if they wanted to) . Starship is the enabler, and will change space like the wright brothers did airflight to paper planes. Stating otherwise is dumb. SLS will not make sence and NASA will buy 10 starship flights instead of 1 SLS. Time to swallow the pride and use their head and respect taxpayers enough to not waste their money. Nasa will be an important partner to spacex, just not that much on the propulsion side anymore. Exciting times to be interested in spaceflight.

man imagine if we regulated the airline industry the same way we regulate the rocket industry.

I "love" how the argument of "well nobody actually got hurt" works for airplanes but god forbid minor malfunction on a rocket's second stage that was planned to burn up during reentry anyway...

[@BaldGeek83]

The F9 booster is working fine. After about 300 successful launches the 2nd stage leaked Oxygen which prevented that 2nd stage from putting the payload into the proper orbit. The fix will be trivial and the F9 will be back into service very soon. The FAA, however, may use this opportunity to block SpaceX's return to space for as long as they can get away with it. However, the Falcon and Falcon Heavy are the only reliable access to space that the US has, so I expect the military and other payload clients to push FAA to get out of the way.
