My favorite thing about SpaceX is that when a customer presents something that the Falcon isn't designed for, SpaceX makes it happen haha. Its impressive on a small level but absolutely insane when it has to do with Spaceflight!

[@photogeNK]

Ryan is really good at this. I always enjoy his narrated vids. He flows so smooth and naturally. Good dude!🔥

[@NateBaxley]

Love to see more coverage beyond just SpaceX. Viable competition can only make things better.

[@corrinastanley125]

Great update thanks NSF team. Loved the fun editing and the highlighting of the subjects being talked about too.

[@albert_vds]

Looking forward to Blue Origin New Glenn's 1st flight.

Thanks NSF team. Great reporting!

I’m so sad that the last Delta IV launch is just around the corner 😭

Why do I always read KSC as "kerbal space center"?

Or why do I read Starfactory as Satisfactory.

Well done Ryan!

Adrian you are looking much more professional now. Great job, keep up the good work.

[@roberthale8407]

FYI that C5 could be one of 2 modified for satellite transport, the airframe is an A-model modded to a C-model (no rear troop deck) and upgraded to the M standards.

[@gusfisher]

My favorite types of videos!

[@dalel3608]

Wooo, Blue Origin finally showing their hard work off.

[@dalel3608]

And by showing off, I mean having it in the open long enough for the space coast paparazzi to catch them. 😂

[@witchdoctor6502]

I hope there will be a metal print of the last launch od Delta IV

[@chadwynia5021]

Wonder if they will add a tower section or two on the new tower

[@GrigoriZhukov]

Considering possible size changes with version 3 of the prototypes, I think so.

[@sander915]

The return of the king!!!

[@user-no9ro9kd7b]

😂

[@avalonhomestead9077]

As SpaceX is always looking and planning for its next step, I would be very confident that the new tower will be taller and QD will be higher. V3 will be a tanker version.

[@ale131296]

Given all the hardware we've seen, this tower seems to still be the same height as the previous two

[@samspeaks9413]

They have built anything yet. The pieces made will be the basic platform and a section will be added to make the extension.

[@johnferris1913]

Will they take the opportunity to mount the QD arm higher up?

[@knowledgeisgood9645]

Not on the current tower. Likely on the next one.

[@HughMann]

To whoever did the editing at 8:50 you are amazing. Thanks for making me chuckle. Here, have some ice cream, courtesy of us crazys over at McGregor live 🍨

[@screally1152]

2:42 ...what do you think the air is like at the KSC, on the Florida coast?

[@keithflint191]

the most interesting thing is that the second step is made of steel, you can see the place that was polished by the machine

[@moodmusicytc]

The 2nd tower is going to be completed super quickly. I'd say maybe halfway done by summer pending how quickly work starts on the tower base

[@ColoradoCamper]

19:08 the Blue Origin recovery hardware is already right there at Port Canaveral, you guys even filmed it! They have a blue frame of some sort and also have a giant new harbor crane parked there. This is likely how they will recover New Glenn, similar to how SpaceX recovers Falcon 9.

[@tmg7476]

Transfer at the docks, yes, but transfer from what? I keep waiting for some news about a BO recovery vessel or two but no news, not even any rumors.

[@ale131296]

We meant things like a droneship or fairing recovery vessel (they want to reuse fairings too). We know about the crane and booster jig and it was covered on a previous flyover.

Paint is waist of money unless it is to define difference of location

[@GrigoriZhukov]

Not really. Paint helps mitigate corrosion.

[@bannlaughlin3544]

@@GrigoriZhukov thank you for that reminder

[@imconsequetau5275]

How does heat-ablated paint affect the environment?

[@David-yo5ws]

Another possibility is that the paint will show any 'scorching' from heat during static test fires and launch's, which might help them learn where an extra water sprinkler needs to go.

[@stephensfarms7165]

BO,has never launched anything and they continue to get contracts , what’s up with that. Is Jeff in bed with congress to get so much government business.

[@_mikolaj_]

Its called having good reputation within the industry. Keep in mind, you dont see what customers get to see, and they see good practices and development methods that give them confidence in the company, similiar to ULA's vulcan, which got contracts for 73 launches way before it got to fly.

[@ale131296]

Many companies often get contracts before they fly their rockets. That's how they can actually fly them in the first place. No payloads, no launches, no rocket flights.

[@anthony4890]

They’ve launched their glorified starhopper a few times 😂

[@Qwarzz]

@@anthony4890One of the best sounding rockets around! I'm quite disappointed in their launch cadence however.

[@iamjwns6277]

Their BE-4 engines launched Vulcan this month. The most powerful methalox engines to launch an successful orbital mission. They done it on their flight aswell. Most other rockets engines blow up or melt in their first flights.

You need to get half your money back on that haircut
