When will SpaceX launch the first Lunar Starship test flight? What do you think?

Great effort Feiix, but on behalf of many of your current subscribers, can we respectfully ask you to give the 'channel metrics' segment a bit of a rest?

We are now officially in the era where Starships fly regularly!

[KevinCreighton]

When I was a kid, I went to our local airport to watch the first-ever 747 land there. I was amazed at how big it looked compared to the other jetliners. Now 747s are "normal."
I look forward to the day when Starship launches become as blasé and normal as a jumbo jet taking off for another continent.

[Darimonde]

I am so looking forward to Starship being fully operational. It will completely change the way we live on and around this planet.
Starship cargo, Starship hotels, Starship observatories, Starship space stations, Starship airliners, Starship moon bases.
Just a few more years and nothing will be the same!

Felix, thanks for your humor and letting everyone tap into our inner child while geeking out on space travel.

[andreamanenti]

I'm so glad you mentioned the windows. It was the first thing that drove me crazy about those new renders 🥰

[jtstreet]

Aww, RIP Ship 26. You'll live on in our hearts.

[AbsolumentPas-oh]

You gained a subscriber by using a Lord of the Ring footage to represent a shockwave lol

[caldodge]

Due to a particular outcome on November 5th, I expect far fewer FAA delays next year.

[devinwilliams]

Dude, lmao! 😂😂😂 star hopper falling and rolling away in that animation was awesome 😂😂

[OleksiiVn]

Looking forward to the next Starship launch

What would make sense is that the starship would go orbit and come back for a water landing back in the gulf. That would show that they could get back to the tower, for the next flight.

[SundanceHelicopterTours]

What a pleasure to watch the news!
Short & crisp AND fun animations😜

[seekerstan]

The main reason for tower clading in areas that don't need protection from lift-off blast is to prevent birds from building nests in the structure and getting their eggs poached during lift-off. It's one of the environmental mitigations required long term.

[PanaHavana]

I think SpaceX should take an "Apple Pie" as cargo for the next launch ... "Pie in the Sky"

[skubic]

Felix, I never understood why you've continued to hold to the thought of Ship 26 going to space?! It seemed fairly clear for the last year or more that it's destiny was to test upgrades of ships and for use as a "cheap" ground system test article in lieu of risking an intended space-bound ship for such purposes.
Now especially with Block2 coming on line, it's time has come--and it served the cause in it own unique capacity very well, I would say! Ship 26: we salute you!

[TheOriginalLennie]

11th or 12th Jan for the next launch, and the lauch after that should be the Orbital/Payload test..
