One of the best video camera shot I've seen. Those pieces of concrete, and other lighter things, were more visible than any other video i've seen so far.

[@ashleykerlin]

Agreed - best video I've seen, and awesome audio.

[@bensharpe64]

Those CRACKLES!!!

[@mustang607]

Lots of "controlled explosions", and some uncontrolled ones as well.

[@bensharpe64]

@@mustang607 that’s just the sound rocket engines make. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJ_VdXWhhL1rgMU

[@dirtypure2023]

Can anyone explain why it sounds like that?

[@eclecticmemes]

@@dirtypure2023 I was physically watching at S padre island about 4 miles away. the pop pop pop noise was real and not an artifact. I asked around and was told the popping noise is from the exhaust jet continuously exceeding the sound barrier, so each pop is a sound wave breaking peak. I was surprised as well.

[@joefunk1611]

One of the best drum solos ever!

[@nighttow8780]

There is a technical information vacuum surrounding Starbase for the last week. Desperately awaiting a long-format video from csi Starbase to fill me in!

[@thomaswade3072]

Same!

[@cboy-ou2hr]

CSI fill us in

[@godagon97]

WERD!! Can't wait

[@YellowRambler]

The end of the beginning?

[@Alienalloy]

Great footage, and as i just said over on fraser Cains channel..."Its a bit ironic we've gone from the analogy of not having to destroy the jumbo jet after a single use to, destroying the airport after a single use". keep up the great content..subscribed.

[@lukeskywalker7457]

That was amazing audio

[@droowayne]

Damn that is crazy close! Incredible footage and audio! I can't imagine how loud it was from such a short distance!

[@rogerthomas169]

These cameras can take that video from 4 miles away

[@CSIStarbase]

Loud enough that the first thought in your head is "We are way too close"

[@jonpeterson9733]

I asked you about the concrete a few weeks ago, I think you were hopeful, but had reservations as well. looks like those engines blew a gaping hole through our most pessimistic thoughts on that. it's amazing it even got off the pad with car sized concrete launched nearly to the height of the 1st stage, and yet with all that damage it still made max Q, and even more impressive it didn't break when it corkscrewed the last part of the flite. I for one think you had the best footage/audio, at least for lift off. looking forward to the next video 👍

[@xxtoptankxx6873]

I need that next video ASAP! This is my favorite Space Informative Channel out of my list. Hope to see it soon!

[@Rightin02]

Great video of the debris ejecta! I'm amazed it made it off the launch pad. Thanks for taking the time to film, edit and share. Really looking forward to your deep dive.

[@damonried1720]

Looking forward to seeing your analysis of the launch aftermath from the moment I first saw that ginormous crater.

[@thehoff4581]

One of the better views in my opinion, thanks for sharing!

[@MadJustin7]

Looking forward to it. CSI is the best source of detailed information on Starship.

[@Chuckt961]

I'm not an "I told you so" kind of guy....wait. Yes I am. Wayyyyy more damage than I imagined though. Way more. Now I think I know why those tower segments haven't been stacked somewhere yet. Tower 2 is in serious review I bet. Looking forward to possible solutions presented as you make sense of it all so well. But, holy s*** was that a beast!?! 🤙

[@ssrbob]

That sound is incredible.

[@Sarge714]

Two words for CSI Starbase: "Called it". I bet if the the pad had held together SpaceX would have had a even more successful launch.

[@storkstormhawk]

Actually this was the best video/audio in my opinion. It made me feel like I was there filming it myself. Kinda more personal. Good Job!

[@94nolo]

those shots of the debris are insane LOL

[@mattc.310]

As a famous spacefarer once said "we don't cross our fingers and hope things go right... that"s not how we do things". Words to live by in many professions. SpaceX was very lucky. That was some fantastic footage. With reported damage 6+ miles away, that had to feel incredible.

[@TheNheg66]

SpaceX did things differently from the very beginning though

[@philipgrice1026]

Thank you Zak. As usual, despite all the other pundits with cameras at the scene, you got the most revealing shot showing the concrete debris lofted skyward by the Boring Company's newest excavator. And the audio is fabulous! As soon as it started I had to stop, turn the Video and my computer audio up to eleven and replay the show from the start. Absolutely fabulous!!!! Almost like being there. Maybe. As Elon prefers to avoid flame trenches, partly I'm sure because there won't be any on the Moon or Mars, maybe the Boring Company could excavate a flame tunnel under the wetlands to exit away from sensitive areas and human habitat too. 😇 I'm sure your reveal in the upcoming video will be to your always very high standard. I'm looking forward to it.

[@CSIStarbase]

Wow. Thank you! That means a lot. Wasnt expecting this kind of response at all. Geoff did some pretty heroic work stabilizing all of this

[@JamesGod10]

I think that was the best audio I've heard from all the launch videos and that's what I can't wait for the most seeing it in person on the 2nd or 3rd launch: great video! 🚀

[@danielhogbin9906]

Zack!!! That was awesome !!! Can't wait for your deep dive investigation into the launch!! Keep up the amazing work!!!

[@stevebaker4303]

Can’t wait for your report. What a trip it’s been.

[@NOM-X]

The best footage I have seen yet! "Snap Crackle Pop!" It broke so many waves, simply breathtaking. Thanks Zach!

[@relaxingwindow6137]

Great angle and the crackle of rocket engines is so satisfying.

[@daveanderson2711]

I can hardly wait for your deep dive! Truly a CSI video.

[@nirbhay_raghav]

After seeing this video, I have realized that it was a damn miracle that starship even cleared the pad. The sheer amount of concrete getting blasted into the would have damaged the ship pretty bad. Looking forward to the deep dive video Zack. As always, great video and great work.

[@Chaicowski]

Thanks!

[@leeming1317]

I still can't beleive seeing something that big, the biggest ever of its kind lift off, it was a surreal holy s--- moment haha Then the sound. As if beseeching Thor himself.

[@wrxsti1987]

That sound!!!! 😮

[@Marvinfj32]

Sounds like a drum solo. wow. Well done.

[@Kizmox]

Absolutely INSANE shot. LOVE the audio and the clarity of flying concrete!!

[@LucasClemente]

Eagerly anticipating the deep dive. You rock Zack.

[@maulcs]

Glorious audio, sounds amazing on a good system

[@nbdjdjshch6747hrhfuduen]

That sound, as incredible as it is makes me wonder if point to point is going to he accepted in cites around the world

[@leeming1317]

What did you say? *ear rining intensifies*

[@planetsec9]

Supersonic passenger planes making a comeback would basically spell the end of point 2 point passenger travel imo, the convenience of an airport vs. driving out to some remote launchpad

[@phlogistanjones2722]

Simply incredible. MY GOODNESS that is some FINE shooting Mr.! Best shots of detritus I have seen.

[@hafeezalimeam9781]

Waiting eagerly bro jack for next episode 😊😊😊 your analysis are mind-boggling addicted to ur content outstanding hope u bring it soon

Thank you!

[@TeslaRebuilders]

Wholly Cow you can really see the Chunks of concrete fly in your video! Gezzzum Peetts that one huge piece was at least 30 by 10 feet in size relative to Starship! Nice shots Zack, thanks for catching the action so clearly. Take it easy guys, Casey

Can’t wait for your next video, so in depth and detailed 👍🏻👍🏻keep up the gd work

[@kerrygardner773]

Thanks for the video!

[@ph11p3540]

As ab audiophile, this sound energy is gold. You blasted me into audio heaven. I just wish they could just build a series of flame trenches but such a thing is impossible to do with the water table just feet from the surface.

[@bigdogboos1]

i am going to the next launch. i want to feel those sound waves

[@ewalock7432]

Can it get any better!!

[@slaxxxer]

That raw sound of the accumulation of mans achievements is suitable powerful and truly awe-inspiring.

[@ChristopherLeePup]

Thanks Zack !

[@GerardHammond]

brilliant! this was amazing ZacK. Its one fo the best lift off takes. Woohoo!!!!!!

[@porroapp]

This channel is filled in insights and critical analysis. Can't wait for your next deep dive Zack!

[@tctc0nsulting]

Thank you Zack for your past, present, and future video articles. I have always admired your wide ranging and thoughtful analysis and presentation of all things Starbase related. Denis in Alaska

[@PC-nf3no]

Zack, as an Engineer, you may appreciate this. Creating a pad of water cooled steel launch pad is an untested design. Sure, water passing under the steel will cool it and increase its melting temperature. Similar to a bell nozzle having its fuel first cool the nozzle before returning to the turbo pump. But I don't think there is a calculation or a test example of removing that much heat. They are talking about the intense heat, pressure, and vibration of 17,000,000lbs of force and heat. The water in the plates will probably expand faster than the heat can escape. It will probably buckle from underneath as well as on top. The flow rate and volume is going to have to be enormous and tested. For rapid and reusable... the best option would be a deep water trench like at Stennis. They could run that shit all day but that's not going to happen at Boca Chica. If it was my engineering team, we would be building, testing and reiterating at Marshall before trying at Boca Chica. Then, the FAA could have some confidence in the design to issue the launch license.

[@DailyDoseofSpace.]

Amazing sound, and cannot wait for the deep dive!

[@rocketman1969]

Woah this is amazing man great job

[@TheBestOfSweden]

Incredible video and audio! Keep it up, looking forward to the next flight

[@hugolandheer7008]

OMG... Thank you so much!!!!

Awesome sound quality! Best I've ever heard, great work Sir.

[@warperone]

love your analysis ! best i've seen.

[@michaelullman8574]

Can’t wait to see your next video! Do your thang!!!!

[@c73mr0ck]

Most definitely some of the best footage I've seen to date - especially shows the massive scale of the imploding concrete. Great work as always.

[@rolanddvcourt]

Rocket started falling over, they had to immediately gimbal to place the bottom out where the top was, this gave it that same effect, we saw with star hoppers, off center thrust. They probably won't admit, but Elon, must of been shitting bricks when that thing sat there blasting the pad for ever.
