What Are SpaceX's Plans For Starship at Cape Canaveral? - SpaceX Weekly

[@ChaosDivision64]

I’ve never seen your face before! Amazing!

[@danielmueller9623]

lol, I was thinking the exact same thing.

What…….his face is amazing…….AI……not real😂

Came to say this!

[@jimlovell1895]

He made an intro on an exavator one time, saying "lets dig in in this weekly update" 😅

[@allen1414]

Good to see you on cam Louis you and your team did another awesome update .. !!

[@LabPadre]

Thanks again for watching!

[@allen1414]

@@LabPadre always looking forward to those Cool updates..

[@-danR]

This is great. Louis is showing up front, in person, that this channel isn't for those one of the crowd of youTube AI-compiled and TTS-'narrated' videos. Real-people videos for real people

[@CobraEmergency]

This one's a good one! Great to see the narrator at the beginning, and the extended look at Cape Canaveral/KSC was awesome.

[@hachan5440]

Thanks for the surprise appearance, would have never guess what you looked like from your voice.

[@-danR]

You can see him from years ago in one of his first videos (if it's still extant) exercising on a balance-ball. I don't know if it's still there, it's been years since I watched it.

[@ThatsDave]

Seeing you makes me happy! You did an excellent job making this video! Looking forwards to more awesome videos-

[@LabPadre]

You are the best

[@doronb-a1393]

Best Reporter ! Thanks

[@perlievoshell96]

Nice weekly review and so nice to see the face of LabPadre again.

[@R1chardLew1s]

Wow, so much is happening. Can't thank you enough for these weekly updates.

[@LabPadre]

You bet!

[@RWBHere]

Thanks Lewis. Good to see you!

[@gtbproductions1]

It's a pleasure to hear you talk in construction terms when describing things like on the crane and other things.

[@vix3779]

Personal appearance! I like it! Great to see some of Greg's photos again too! Always good to get some juicy news from the Cape! Thanks, as always team Lab!

[@LabPadre]

Thanks for your years of support sweets!

[@Qwarzz]

That was alot more talk about boom than I expected.

[@LabPadre]

😏People love cranes!

[@edthompson9569]

OK. I’ll put a bid in to downplay cranes and let the update length vary with whatever rocket information is available that week.

[@bgdxmas]

It's so good to hear and see you face, LAB!❤

[@FiveHeartsOneMap]

Hey, nice to see you!!!🖖☺️

[@jfrappier]

Awesome to put a face to the voice. Love the content man. Koodos to you and your team.

Glad you enjoy it!

[@Caristis1]

Increible que al fin luego de 142 videos podamos ver la increible persona detras de estos videos, Gracias por todo!! translated: It's incredible that after 142 videos we can finally see the incredible person behind these videos. Thank you for everything!!

[@Dountman]

Whoa this is trippy actually putting a face to the voice!

[@TheCeaserG]

Love this new format Lab!

[@moodmusicytc]

Great intro! Love it :D

[@Wrangler-fp4ei]

Thanks for yet another timely update, Lab & Crew! Blue Origin not going launch until January now? Doesn't look good for their space station project if their repurpose the building for something else. Going be exciting year to come for space.

[@JoinTheNoob]

Nice to see the person behind the voice. Respect for taking that step! ❤ I'm always amazed by the F9 cadence. Finally Blue is taking up some speed. No fan of Jeff, but we need competition. It would be great if ULA stays independent.

[@SparkTubes]

Nice cameo! Nice to see your face. If I ever make it down to Boca, I'll at least have an idea who to look for. Keep the Cameo's comin...

At 4:08 in this video the spmt was carrying 2 thick steel plates. Probably covers for commodities trench culvert.

[@djidroneskathrinstudt1893]

Woooowww 🤯,for spacex is new launch tower a starship building . 🤩😍🚀🚀🚀🚀👍🏼

[@YeshuaAgapao]

Starbase seems to get so much freight it might be worthwhile to build a freight rail that runs through Starbase to Brownsville.

[@spacemanmat]

Just realised, for blue origin building a moon lander means they need a whole factory just for it. For starship is just a different variant in the same factory.

[@richardbittner3566]

What time on Wednesday the second third is the launch

[@MilBard]

Is this the first time there were two Falcon 9's at the dockside stand?

[@sxmolin]

Finally a face to the name!

[@Ch33ziTzsk8R]

If I’m wrong I’m wrong but I think I hear that booster 16 with that American flag over it was the last of the version 1 boosters? Maybe idk because I hear there’s going to be like 25 hot rings jettisoned and that would be a while before the integrated hot stage… unless v2 boosters will use jettisoned hot stage rings?

[@beakytwitch7905]

9th minute - some spectacular views of yellow smog. I hadn't seen smog in several years since catalytics convertors came in. Seeing your face, was to counter accusations of AI voiceover. But your voice and reporting are just fine, and ignore the sniping comments.. 😊❤😊

[@LabPadre]

I used to be on camera all the time. Does my voice really sound AI generated?

[@BCR81]

@@LabPadreI wouldn’t say so. If people just pay close attention, there’s certain things that “verify” that it isn’t ai (like breathing in between lines, etc)

[@bigd6761]

I thought this was a WAI episode from the intro. Couldn’t make it thru the last WAI episode

[@LabPadre]

@bigd6761 please tell us more.

[@bigd6761]

@ always having his face in the video

[@hamjudo]

13:58 I saw a picture of one of the large crates on a truck outside of a factory in Ohio. The factory has a very large vertical axis lathe in its own climate controlled space. It is used to make parts for Blue Origin. Note where the engines mount on a New Glenn booster is a larger diameter than the tank section. I assume these parts transfer the thrust from the engines to the tank walls and are the main structural elements of the bottom of the booster. Both the lathe and the work piece have to be kept at a constant temperature during milling in order to maintain tight tolerances. I have not seen pictures of the parts themselves, only a single picture of a massive crate on a semi.

[@LabPadre]

Thanks for the info!

[@paulschulte1064]

Best of luck for BO. If they launch successfully it will be some vindication. Otherwise…..

[@nhgardenboy]

He is in his twenties. State of mind!

[@johncampbell9216]

And to think that I had an image of Lab as a Jimmy Page lookalike!!!! :D

[@LabPadre]

😂

[@ifwemadeit]

Good looking guy with a great voice.

[@LabPadre]

Thanks!

[@chipsrafferty8362]

Jacklyn will be a rust bucket before it catches a booster.

[@invisible468]

How and why don’t the fairing halves don’t sink or get damaged… do they have parachutes?!?

[@stevenscharmer1765]

Yes, they have small parachutes. They float after landing on water.

[@LabPadre]

They are buoyant.

[@invisible468]

@@stevenscharmer1765 thanks just something I wondered…

[@astrodiver1]

The crane is for lifting things.

Build more towers at the cape! DUH!!!

[@klasiks92]

143 weeks later we get to put a face to the voice.

[@LabPadre]

😉

[@ismailnyeyusof3520]

Blue Origin’s operation philosophy difference with SpaceX is very clearly shown in this episode. They use their money to build out many facilities BEFORE they use them while SpaceX starts operations in temporary facilities, builds new facilities while using the partially completed sections and continues operations in the facilities under construction all the way until everything is completed. SpaceX grows organically and lean while Blue Origin is much less so with their fat wallet available to them.

[@LabPadre]

Nice take.

[@imaginary_friend7300]

Yes they follow what is considered to more traditional legacy development path.

[@JazzinBlues]

These seem to be getting incrementally longer each week. Please try to keep them succinct - I don't need to know every time an armadillo crosses 4...

[@LabPadre]

😂Good one!

[@SeanHollingsworth]

I really hope that Blue Origin is successful!! I hope that they can put at least one object into orbit in 2025. It's been a long time coming.

[@LabPadre]

Would be nice to see them get something into orbit.

[@clavo3352]

If going to do thousands of flights and landings a better frame than the single post chopstick Mechazilla needs to be designed and built. A butterfly frame would allow for much more pendulum swing and landing error forgiveness.

[@imaginary_friend7300]

I think they want as little free movement as possible.
