SpaceX Starship Makes Big Steps towards Flight 5, Falcon 9 Grounded and China Launches from BOAT

we got astronauts saying "sigma" in space in before GTA6 !!!

What is spaceX doing? there have been so many anomalies in such a short amount of time

[@varietyegg]

I think they are putting their rockets through more strain to avoid future unexpected complications but the FAA is being a jack in the ass

[@ThePhantomRocket]

@@varietyegg As a SpaceX intern with many connections within the company, that's not entirely true.

[@ascherlafayette8572]

​@@ThePhantomRocket What is true 👀📷

[@awilliams1701]

@@varietyegg for the most part I agree, but when your rocket lands outside of the exclusion zone, public safety is at risk. So this time the FAA would be right to ground them if they hadn't already grounded themselves.

[@EnderMalcolm]

Space is hard, and realistically none of their recent issues have been that large of an issue. One engine malfunction which is kind of a given when you produce this many engines, and one off-course re-entry, which is still being investigated but may also be an engine issue. This is another second stage, which is the same as the issue previously. This will help SpaceX narrow down the problem, which is probably a small manufacturing issue, resolve it, and get back to normal ops.

[@therealspeedwagon1451]

Brainrot in space is the reason why aliens never visit us

[@greenwizard2000]

God damnit. Can't come to space creator day AGAIN despite it only being like 3 hours by car from where I live. That weekend I'm on another community convention in Hamburg...

[@thetobi583]

Looks like the boosters are starting to show their launch number limits finally. 15-20 launches per falcon 9 booster is already amazing. I wonder if SpaceX is going to remedy the issues to certify them for 30+ launches or if they're going to put boosters to rest at 20 for mechanical reasons.

[@steveaustin2686]

The latest anomaly was with the second stage and those are always new and used once.

[@Jesse-zk9ge]

Perfect sounds like a lot of good news to me all around. Finally getting some good competition developing in the space program. In theory everything if it goes right we should be able to get through International cooperation Supreme decent spacecraft that we could only dream of in science fiction. Probably a lot safer too.👌

[@Bigchap9]

very cool Matt. Hope you'll have a good time in germany. Would love to meet you there and have a little chat. Been watching your videos since 7 years now. I'll bring a beer if I make it :)

[@acebubbles5023]

didn’t know roscosmos was flying cosmonauts on dragon that’s awesome!

[@KiRiTO72987]

It's an ongoing partnership some US astronauts fly on soyuz and in exchange some cosmonauts fly on US launch vehicles

[@steveaustin2686]

As KiRiTO72987 said, it's ongoing seat swaps. That way if a crew has to leave early for an emergency like an illness/injury, there is someone from the other side still on the ISS.

[@markstacey876]

It is a minor hiccup should be up and rolling in a couple of days 😊

SpaceX employee here: thats not what it is.

[@4DCResinSmoker]

Enlighten us then if you dare.

[@JackMott]

@@4DCResinSmoker If you look at the content and tone of Elon's tweets in the last year generally, you can imagine what the back and forth communication between him and the FAA is like. The biggest booster in history is going to be coming back to the launch site, which is near a popular beach, a city, a foreign nation, and an environmental preserve. They need to evaluate the flight plan and contingencies to be sure the booster doesn't end up blowing up on beach goers in south padre, on the city of Brownsville, on Mexico, or the preserve. I imagine when they ask for details they often get an email from Elon with something like "WHY ARE YOU WOKE" which delays things more.

[@4DCResinSmoker]

@@JackMott Well that still assumes a lot, just taking the back and forth between SpaceX and the FAA as a snapshot for what's truly going on. Besides, Jack, your tone suggests you knew, as if you were a man in the middle. Which clearly is not the case here. Regardless, the FAA's stance is a bureaucratic one, which historically has deep intwined political forces as well. Which more than suggests that someone in the loop could be leaning on SpaceX. If that's for political reasons or to lend advantage to Blue Origin has yet to be seen yet. Though I expect for Blue Origin to have no problems with the FAA. Such to suggest that (possibly) JB has a either earned or paid for the political "favors" in advance of the first launch. Unlike Musk who's arrogance hasn't made him many friends on either side of the political spectrum.

What does the number of launches have to do with profit? It is even better to launch more; economy of scale

@Jeb_bezos because it's the cost of lanches and starlink vs is enough people buying them? . I was curious from a UK perspective nobody apart from the on travaler, campervan, or statics is buying them.
