[@merky6004]

Paint is big deal. I worked a water utility. It’s called “coating” as a coating of protection for metal pipes, components and such. It’s a serious group of guys. Corrosion protection for expensive and complex parts.

[@Whataboutit]

I couldn't agree more! Thank you for the comment!

[@GrigoriZhukov]

And the prep work is the only more important than the choice of coating material, application choice. Perfect preparation covers a multitude of errors.

[@merky6004]

@@GrigoriZhukov You know it. Especially Sand blasting. They have a sandblasting building and it’s big, for big components. Also the system shuts down for a few days for maintenance every so many years. Then everyone hustles to fix, replace, repaint, and so on. The Coating Team goes to work almost 24/7. Always impressive.

[@GrigoriZhukov]

@merky6004 It's a paint thing. Want to know how well built and prepped something is. Paint it gloss black, then shine a light parallel.

[@EricJames429]

I believe that once Tower 2 is completed, future launches will utilize the opposite tower’s arms for catching the returning booster. This will allow them to stack the next Starship for launch from a fully prepared tower.

[@caseinnitratjr6861]

Mal wieder ein sehr gutes und informatives Video. Danke Felix

[@Whataboutit]

Gerne! 🙂

[@djohannsson8268]

When the chopsticks catch a returning booster or starship they should be positionally offset rotated from the rocket launch stand. This allows a "returning" booster or starship to not damage the launch mount and its infrastructures. If you want fast launches, the previously caught booster is already prepped and waiting on the OLM. The starship is caught, rotated and stacked on this booster, both refueled, launch again.

EU really should just license spacex to launch from the continent to provide serious competition otherwise ESA will just waste money on legacy style contracts like NASA did with SLS

[@Cresign]

French Guiana is legally EU, but also almost directly on the equator. There isnt a big incentive to launch from Europe because it's on a high latitude and doesn't have a huge ocean to the east to drop spent stages into

With all the rumors about SLS being cancelled I can easily picture the Orion capsule riding atop of the New Glenn second stage. The launch abort system and all the other technology belongs to NASA. They can move the system to any vehicle they want. I suppose there is more to it besides the diameter of the vehicles.

Why don’t you ask them? Why why don’t they put landing pads over on the other side of the launch facility so they can land everything there and keep launching and that way they don’t have to keep redoing the launch

[@paulcarpenter999]

I think the Chinese rocket catch approach at 18:10 will be widely applied, seems like a reliable and sound method. It won't support same-day turnaround that SpaceX is aiming for, but it will meet the needs of most launchers.

Why do they use Water, is it possible to use something else to cool the OLM?

[@okirooju3787]

Because water is not only used for fire/heat suppression (cooling). The water also helps in dampening the sound from the engines. So it serves two purposes: fire/heat and sound suppression.

Could something like the water deluge system help to protect the launch mount during landings as well as takeoffs? I suppose it might knock the booster off course ...

[@LACHIVA1969]

I thought of the idea of the catch system like the 3D printer but instead using steel cables rather than arms. Four towers with some sort of system that would make the cables come closer and wrap around the booster once the flames are under the cables.

[@Scanner9631]

Four towers is 4 times the cost and complexity. Remember Musk's mantra "the best part is no part". I would add for rockets the 2nd best part is the part left behind and the 3rd best is the one that performs multiple functions. The tower fulfills both 2nd and 3rd at the same time.
