The "Beehive" funnel arrangement may be to ensure that there is a smooth flow of propellant regardless of how the booster swings and changes attitude. A rapid change in cross section straight into the downcomer means that the flow has to rapidly accelerate at the start of the tube. This will allow for a more gradual change in velocity, keeping the pressure gradients much lower.

Thanks for the great videos as always. One note at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="742">12:22</a> - the flight software (FSW) on Starliner does not need to be reinstalled. Configuration files need to be reloaded. These configuration files contain runtime parameters to configure the software for completely autonomous operations. FSW does not need to be recompiled nor reinstalled. It's like changing a parameter in an ".INI" file on some operating systems or a ".conf" file on others. While the changes are simple, verifying and validating that those changes work as intended require many hardware/software integration tests with real hardware. These tests can take a few days to weeks to get vetted, approved, tested, and all the paperwork in place to upload and deploy the configuration. Not saying that's an efficient process , just explaining why it may take weeks. Better to be safe than fast in human spaceflight. Thanks again 🚀😊

That would only set it on an orbit that would be highly likely to cross paths with the station, an unknown number of orbits in the future. If you want to set it adrift then you have to use the capsule's thrust capability to move it a safe distance away from the ISS.

It's unnecessary - if the crew feel that strongly about it, they simply need to tell NASA that they're not willing to return in the Starliner, and NASA will have no option but to accommodate their demands. Because NASA has no power to force them to do anything, and NASA *really* doesn't want to deal with the media fallout from trying to overrule the astronauts on matters of safety.

Raptor3 is so mindbogglingly good that even oldspace oldtimer CEO's can't believe it's possible to be real, and call Spacex liars and accuse them of showing “partially assembled” engines as complete. Of-course that same guy says that their superduper high energy rocket first stages go to orbit so could be lying again.

Raptor 3 is crazy if they aren't massaging any numbers.. you would already look at raptor 2 and think it had great specs but turns out it was just an interim prototype for them... damn starliner needs 4 weeks to install software, you can't make this sht up, your cost plus contract dollars at work dear US citizens

@@bryanillenberg Oh, absolutely... it's absurd that they've made a change like that on a certification flight, even if the functionality wasn't strictly required by the contract. The SpaceX approach is much more sensible in this respect - the capsule flies itself by default, so it works the same whether it's flying crew or cargo. Humans, if present, have the ability to override the computer in an emergency, but they're not a required part of the control loop.

Why is "regulatory approval" not just a rubber stamp at this point? SpaceX has more then proven their skill and concern for safety by now. (More than Bowing or anyone who approved starliner, that's for sure) to me it feels like the US government is intentionally slowing SpaceX down, i assume because of how embarrassing the Boeing bet the government made has been, didn't crew dragon development start after "starliner"? (Don't remember off the top of my head amd don't care enough to check, starliner would have been an acceptable platform (assuming it ever works) before the space shuttle but is just out dated junk now)

Marcus, the falcon booster takes about 15 seconds going down from 4 km of altitude to touch ground (from 1200 km/h to zero). That is pretty brutal. What would be like the "times" for the super heavy booster, to be successfully caught up by mechazilla? My guess is that it may require more time than the falcon booster, even to hoover if necessary, to adjust both its trajectory and attitude, with respect to the tower and the arms.
@1flash3571Ай бұрын
I am sure they know what they are doing....They are an expert at landings. They just need to adjust for the weight and the thrust capability of the Starships.
@simongeard4824Ай бұрын
Long term at least, I'd expect SuperHeavy to be much the same as Falcon 9 - because while they *can* hover it, every second the engines are running is burning more fuel. So as they build experience in catching the boosters, I'd expect it to end up looking much like the F9 suicide burn...

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="250">4:10</a> My guess is that's more about capturing the last bit of fuel so vapor doesn't enter the pipe while it's sloshing around on the shallower angle tank bottom. Basically as it sloshes around it falls in and becomes trapped due to the steep sides and can't easily slosh out again.

I think planning on having Starship retrieve the Starliner should be begun right away. Work out the dynamics of balance points for reentry, internal sling and tie down system, build it into Starship 6. If Starship 5 catch is successful, send up #6. Need some robotic positioning and maneuvering to make sure Starliner stays under control while disconnecting from ISS and inserting into Starship if Canada Arm seems insufficient to maintain control. We don't know how much thrust or the direction vectors that are being generated by the leaks. Gettig Starliner to the ground in relatively good shape should be a tremendous help in determining the failures and what can be done about them. Lets let innovation lead us forward!
