Starship SN9 Completes Three Static Fires In One Day

01.13.2021 In an unprecedented show today SpaceX Boca Chica, Texas completes three static fires in one day for a total of four in a monumental feat to prep Starship SN9 for its debut launch. Camera angles include Nerdle Cam, Lab Cam, Launch Pad Cam, and Raptor Roost Cam with Slo-Mo.
All static fires seemed to be equally short with a strange whine an moan at the finish.

Love how the raptor engines sound like something out of Jurassic Park.

[Whataboutit]

This is ridiculously cool! Thank you much, Louis & Team! You Rock!!! Best picture by far and that Raptor howl is next level sci-fi!

[JakeBiddlecome]

I love the sound of the valves closing. Sounds like an actual dragon. I'd give anything to have super high quality binaural audio of these engines.

They're just cleaning the dirt from the pad

[KunehKun]

This is crazy! They're improving a lot

If you would’ve told me this 6 months ago when we were going crazy about SN4’s static fire I wouldn’t have believed you!

[kenjiokura]

Wow, that sound of the engines and them shutting down is amazing. (plus seeing the vapor initially launched away and then being pulled back toward the engine is cool too)

The roaring 20s are back... only this time the roar is from Raptors!

[paulkerman]

Daaang....that actually kinda sounds like what I imagine a raptor (dinosaur) would have sounded like, especially the first static fire

[EdoardoGiammarino]

Thanks Lab! ❤ Your coverage are pretty amazing...

[myfavoritemartian]

Not only are those beautiful shots, but they are the best of any I have seen. I really appreciate the Slo-Mo shots because I can better see the instant they fire.

Nice having all the SF in a short video instead of sitting looking at the live feed all-day

At 0:20, how on earth did LabPadre get their logo on that container?? 😳 Ohh, it's just on the screen in the right place, lol.

[iantibbetts]

Thanks Lab. Nice to hear the Raptors boom and honk!

[paulstubbs]

"Warning, Speaker & Hearing damege...", hang on a sec, whilst I bring my subwoofer online.

[boomer]

Looks like their venting less O2 after the engines fire than on the previous tests. Those raptors start and stop beautifully.

[kellyannesmith]

Sounds like a old steam train and a whale when the engine shut down

This is the best thing in the USA atm !!

Go for launch SN9 🔥🔥🔥

[rodneychristensen]
