[@adrianbarreto4225]

I just realized that they are estimating helium 3 to be worth 16 billion per ton. And it is everywhere on the moon. 65 million for a reusable rocket that can carry 150 tons...

[@mervstash3692]

@adrianbarreto4225 it doesn't really have a value yet as there is nothing to use it with. The theory is that you can use it for Nuclear Fusion, however that technology is just a pipe dream. Also, 65 million per launch is another pipe dream. Just like how they expect 7 million per launch with Falcon (which is still approx 55 mil). You can't use 65 mil in calculations when they reality is 4-5 times that. I'm pretty sure 150 tones of helium 3 isn't going to fit. Gases require much bigger volume for storage. It's not like 1 tonne of any element fits in the same size container. Lastly and most importantly, there is no proof there is mass qualities of it on the moon. All theories about that have been debunked.

[@ricchamen6304]

Actually built in Carbon Fibre& dipped in Colloidal Silicate and Charmotte;used in the correct recipe,which would properly protect both the Rocket,as well as the Astronaut’s or other folks aboard;should it loose any of its protective tiling. Plus it’s easier to apply the “heat -Shield” to Carbon Fibre,as well as a surface material the same as the heat-shield tiles,ensures an optimal safety. Also this can either be Mould-constructed or 3D-produced. This would enable SpaceX to turn out rocket upon rocket,using the same mould,and coating it all,either via Spaying;or preferably tank dipping each moulded ship. The recipe of Colloidal Silicate/Charmotte continue ally turned so as to prevent the -0.27 micron flower particles from settling in the Colloidal Silicate. To solve this issue a 3/4-tank with seal close top could be built and each ship slid into the tank. The tank is sealed and rotated to ensure that the mixture seeps properly into the Carbon-Fibre Weave,where it will form attachment to both the weave;as well as incorporated raised old-door-lock shaped nodes to lock the liquid in place. [Ideally and to ensure an absolutely safe and strong surface.A 3-micron wax dip could,(and should) be done prior to the Charmotte/Silicate dip. WHY:To ensure the best and strongest outcome and bond. A flash-dewaxing of this surface-dip should be done.(It begins the Ceramic Shells hardening process.) And ensuring a more durable and stronger surface for the final few coats of these varied Micron Charmotte mixes,prior to heat shield application. ] Should several heat shields then come adrift,the surface of 14:22 the ship is utterly properly protected from heat&remains both safe and protected against hi temperatures. So too do the contents. (The most important factor.) It’s a second Option for SpaceX and although Carbon Fibre is more expensive,(&Im sure Elon could find something as good,but cheaper, to which this mixture properly adheres. It’s outcomes are safety both here and on moon and Mars landing s. Fixes can be performed should Dire circumstances (of say Distance from home base,call for them. But would require a means to reach said area and “carry on aboard fixture-materials.(To me a logic on a trip “Far far from home!!)! Everything and every prospect should be covered. One can never have to much survival material s. Anyway it’s a thought from someone who wrote a Dissertation on the recipe and materials used in the mixture above. Biological,Scientific and mathematical calculations were followed from the raw material mined material through the making of the material;through to its packaging. The same applied to the recipe and I found an anomaly in the Viscosimeter theorem. It turned out to be as a result of the fact when it was written. The means of identifying microns was way outdated. A test aboard The International Space Station in Zero gravity proved that my thought had been correct and that the Viscosimeter didn’t take into consideration that the microns(their finest particles),settled prior to them running through the Viscosimeter needle,where the reading is taken for those few seconds. The slurry was in fact settling creating inaccurate Viscosimeter readings. In a bronze casting situation at 1250’Celsius it had the potential for disaster. Molten hot bronze is not fun when it hits cement and is affected by the liquid retained in the cement. It has a tendency to explode as I’m sure all who watched the rockets launch came to appreciate. Give it some thought Elon.

The huge starship is the wrong way. They should use A-I to build the ship in space and use high tech catapults and maglevs to launch cargo and material into space. Very little food and oxygen needed. A very small crew can direct the A-I. Small shuttles should be used for passengers to go to and from the earth to space and from space to earth. Building the ship in space removes most limits on size and shape. Actually, I would design it like a huge wheel with spokes and with a huge hub at its center. And yes, it would be meant to spin to create artificial gravity. A dual wheel moving in opposite directions with opposing super magnets aiding in their rotation, can also help to build a magnetic field around the ship, helping to protect the passengers from the sun's radiation. We build it to handle thousands of passengers at a time. It acts as an ocean liner of sorts to and from Mars and the moon and beyond.

[@mikemccormick6128]

It's not true that the name was clarified to mean "Big Falcon Rocket". That name actually makes no sense. There is no relationship to the Falcon rocket in any way. Completely different design, size, building material, engine, fuel, etc. Everything about the rocket is different. The Falcon Heavy actually makes sense because you can basically think of it as 3 Falcon rockets tied together even though it's way more complicated than that. The name has always been Big Fucking Rocket from the very beginning. The name actually came from the game Doom and it's Big Fucking Gun. The problem is that Gwynne Shotwell was asked about the name, and she didn't want to say the real name, so she totally made the name up. And then every journalist and whoever wrote that stupid Wikipedia entry for Starship, all decided to go with that made-up name because the real name is supposedly offensive and everyone is scared to say it or print it.

[@jtjames79]

And it's not just a Doom reference. The Falcon series takes a lot of design inspiration from Armadillo Aerospace, a rocket company started by John Carmack. John fundamentally change the way rocket software was programmed, seating where the Delta flyer not only failed but hit a design brick wall. It's a bit of a rabbit hole of a reference.

As the Titan submersible disaster shows, carbon fiber is no more a "do-it-all" material than any other. During early design phase, in determining strength, simple tests under varing shapes should have eliminated carbon fiber from both designs. When breaking under pressure, carbon fiber splinters in an explosion of shards towards the low pressure, then back.

EXCELENT analysis of how we got here! Thank you for that. Elon is a visionary on a scale we haven't really seen for a LONG time. Gates & Bozos are visionaries in their own right, but Elon goes well past them, in rocketry, Starlink, solar systems, Nurelink, Tesla, Boring, & so many other technologies. We, as a society, are very lucky to have him. (Full disclosure, I don't agree with his political views at all, & I wish he'd keep his friggin' mouth shut in public, but that's another story.) I'm a bit concerned that Musk is SO focused on Mars. I agree that we need to go to Mars, but I also think that we'll learn a LOT on the Moon about how to design, build, & support an off-world colony. I'd feel more comfortable if he wasn't quite so driven on Mars, but he's more of a visionary than I am. So I'll have to wish him all the best. And yes, I'm buying a Starlink, which will help fund his space endeavors. Anyway, wanted to thank you for both these Tesla Space videos, as well as your Space Race videos. Very informative, & a joy for those of us outside the US who can't get this information easily. Very well done!
