[4K] Watch SpaceX Starship FLIGHT 4 launch and reenter LIVE!

[TIME SUBJECT TO CHANGE] This is the fourth fully integrated full stack test flight of Starship and the mighty Super Heavy booster, the largest and most powerful rocket to ever fly. It produces over twice as much thrust as the Saturn V that took humans to the moon.

The goal of the test is to get further along than IFT-3 in March, 2024. If all goes well, Starship will re-enter in the Indian Ocean about 65 minutes after it lifts off from Starbase, TX, on a suborbital trajectory.

The best place for all your space merch needs!

I have never been this excited seeing a blurry screen.

[ksukat]

Man, seeing the flap burn through real time was unbelievable. The fact that it hung on and still operated is amazing. Kudo's to the engineering team.

[somestarman]

Ship 29: "I didn't hear no bell!"

[pedrorehm]

Not even in a Hollywood-movie that would have ended well. But this actually taking place in 2024 makes me speechless. The fact it maintened a FullHD live stream during almost the entire reentry is something my brain is still rejecting to acknowledge.

[ThrustersX]

This was the best rocket stream I've ever watched.

[sdg]

this is the most insane video in the history of space flight, i was 100% sure that the flap would fly off

[logan_black]

That flap is the symbol of how to survive all odds! Hammered, burned and still doing its job. Great work SpaceX and thank you Everyday Astronaut for the live commentary.

[mauriciohandal]

Often in sci-fi movies, we see spacecraft that have been battered by enemy fire, limping back to Earth's atmosphere and making a dramatic landing. It seems far-fetched, but it just happened for real, and it was spectacular!

[bictorultoma]

That is the best flap in history of spaceflight, little bro really did his best and saved the ship

[BBROPHOTO]

The little flap that could. What an amazing stream and moment for SpaceX. I haven't had chills like this since the first Falcon Heavy double booster landing stream.

[zakiNBG]

I loves how the indicator of direction showed when starship tipped over xD

[dougcook]

Tim, I haven't been this excite by space technology since I watched us land on the moon in 1969 with Apollo 11! That Starship was a tank!!!

[sandshark]

Broken flap/fin at the end is the hero piece of hardware of the day.

[thedarkside]

This is the kind of historical events I don't mind living through.

9:47:30 - It was at this moment I knew...
9:55:55 - Starship landing burn/flip maneuver.

Thanks.

[godzillaridergamer]

that was insane. Now THAT is reliable engineering and design. I was expecting that flap to stop working, maybe even fly off and cause the ship to crash. But the fact is stayed functioning, AND allow the ship to land, that caught me off guard. Great job space-x!

[rodneymiller]

OMG, The drama, the excitement, the absolute terror, then the most amazing triumph. Best thing I have watched all year! Amazing job SpaceX.

The amount of people that deserve the greatest gratitude for this is too many to list. First and foremost everyone working at Space X and I mean everyone, from the engineers to the janitors. all deserves to take a bow.

[scheldon]

Man Ship 29 is an absolute WARRIOR!!! Way to go SpaceX!

[isaiahmyers]

The communication engineers in charge of that streaming data are incredibly talented. The stability of the feed during reentry with all of that EMI is astonishing. Props to their entire team, this was incredible.

[hiddenself]

This was the first time in history of space flights that we were getting continuous video during entering the atmosphere!
