Watch SpaceX Launch 58 Starlink Satellites PLUS 3 other Planet Lab satellites!

SpaceX’s Starlink 10 mission will launch 58 Starlink satellites and 3 Earth-Observation satellites atop its Falcon 9 rocket. The Falcon 9 will lift off from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40), at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, in Florida. Starlink 10 will mark the 11th Starlink mission, boosting the total number of Starlink satellites launched to around 655.

I still giggle and get teary every time it lands! 6th time for this booster, just incredible

My father, Ron Carman, was a photographer for NASA during the 60's thru 80's and was even on pad 39a during the Apollo 1 fire. I remember the day that happened and how sad and upset everybody was that day. The famous picture used by everyone with the three astronauts standing in their suits was taken by him shortly before the fire. I got to meet and even hang out with the astronauts quite a few times before they went to the moon. It was a wonderful time to grow up, sitting in front of the TV watching the Apollo 11 astronauts land and walk on the moon with my dad is one of my best memories. Thank you for your great channel. You are the best. Photography RULES.

I was on the Air Force team in 1969 supporting the moon landing and I tear up a bit every time I see a booster land with such precision. My only regret is I won't be around for the really cool SpaceX stuff to come...

[thunderbird]

The future of internet, ladies and gentlemen. Six launches out of one booster is incredible.

[christinefiori]

Watching this from New Zealand so grateful to see this. I was a child when man went to the moon and now I am so happy to see Elons rockets getting ready to launch mankind to the planets. Thanks for broadcasting this.

[stoicman]

I’m glad the pyrotechnics took the night off. That’d have been one spectacular display of explosions.

[dapennsta]

Hey Tim! Quick video idea maybe exploring the network linking between spacecraft and ground stations. Perhaps explaining when blackouts happen and how they are properly prepared for. Interplanetary communications aswell?

[iandennis]

Thank you and your assistants for another excellent launch commentary and also for staying on to answer so many interesting questions.

[TrayTerra]

6 uses going strong, looking forward to seeing a 7th!

[vinayak]

How cool it would be of the 100th launch of falcon 9 lift off is at 31st December exactly 12:00 pm

[friendo]

I love to vicariously experience all the great space stuff going on lately and in the future.

Two more questions from your fellow Iowan: Was there any consideration for the drown ship to have a deep bay for the rocket to land in so that the actual landing pad, dry but below the water line? Yes, bringing it back into the dock would need to be consideration. If it's to deep it wouldn't work. Why do it? Thought is stability. The amount of ballast needed to keep the ship at water line would allow it to be far more stable in less then ideal seas. Also, having the rocket lower in the 'well' means the top sticking out is lower which means a four point lasso could be drawn up from the perimeter to secure the rocket (initial). Ok a bit detailed but not sure who else to ask. Keep of the great work!

Hey Tim, with those new specs on the raptor does that bring the thrust to weight ratio up to 120... Assuming 2.25 MN of thrust???
Guess it's time to update the king of rocket engines article 😋

Bonjour, as always awesome job on the streaming of these events.
One note if I may, you could inverse the top part of your streaming layout 36:23 .
The first stage's telemetry would be on the left side above the actual first stage's image.

A lot of satellites are visible with binoculars during twilight. I accidentally discovered this with my astronomical (11x100) binoculars, and then had fun for many evenings, seeing a "star' moving until it disappeared, moving from sunlight into the Earth's shadow. A little slow scanning quickly found another, until there's no more sunlight at LEO or wherever they are.

You need to get Kirk Sorensen on your channel. He rediscovered molten salt nuclear power reactors. Originally to be used to power NASA moon bases but also for Mars missions.
When you’ve done that, Ed Pheil and Ian Scott are top blokes.

At 34:24 the Falcon 9 exhaust plume suddenly billows out into a balloon with orange colored edges for a few seconds before the familiar white colored jet plume resumes. This happens at 978 kph - which is approaching the sound barrier. I haven't seen this before on a Falcon 9 launch.... any ideas anyone what this could be caused by?

[Cold_Leftovers]

This is the first Starlink mission I didn’t watch live even though I knew it was happening and I could have tuned in. Not a bash on SpaceX and especially not on Tim. I think it’s a positive thing and speaks to what Tim had to say at the beginning of the video. This stuff has gotten so routine that I’m positive it’s going to go well. And that’s an awesome development in space flight. I can’t wait for the days when I think “oh they’re just sending 100 people to Mars. No big deal. I’ve seen this dozens of times.”

Just found your channel! I enjoy your commentary!
