SpaceX Starship Static Fire, NASA Artemis 1 Launch Rundown, Starlink Launches and Legal Battle Win

We have SpaceX Starship Static Fire action at Starbase once again along with some quite intriguing insights into the future of the Starship program. The Starlink network continues to make news as the launch cadence keeps accelerating. 2 Starlink launches just this week and a Legal Battle Win as well. The hopefully final countdown is on for Artemis 1, so a NASA Artemis 1 Launch Rundown today. With the initial scrub just days ago, we are biting our nails awaiting the action to commence potentially just hours from now. I’m diving into what we expect to see in the launch and first few days of this mission. All that and a lot more so there is a heap to cover today.

At 6:04 I obviously meant to say "Starlink Version 2", not "Starship Version 2". Good one Marcus!
🤕Sigh. It must have been a long week. #OnlyHuman.

I could literally watch these all day, curse the space industry for not having more stuff happen every week!

[KevinTheCaravanner]

Man, there is SO much happening at the moment. I don’t remember such crazy progress, not even in the 60s. Marcus, you already speak at a rate of knots, but you’re going to have to get those words out even faster coz every week there’s more to say. Either that, or learn how to speak without pausing to breath in. I”😂🤣 Thanks for your wonderful videos. They make my weekend.

Its amazing that there is still a lot of guesswork on what is going on at the launch site. No leaks from SpaceX.

[vansetproductions]

Amazing coverage as always! Can't wait to see Starship finally take to the sky again. 🚀

[TheDivegeek]

Watching this by Starlink, on top of a mountain at least 50 miles from the nearest cellular service! SpaceX is changing so many games.

[Daniel-jnys]

I love seeing the comments of spacex fans. I show a lot of the new guys these comments/videos so they understand how many people take interest in what we do. Hundreds of thousands of people watching us at all times gives us motivation to push ourselves to make history. Blood sweat and tears go into this program. We love every second of it. We love all of you.

Starship was impressive with 3 Raptor vacuums, and with 6 it is a beast 🤩

[ghostworxx]

Great video! Looks as if the Scrub Launch System performed on par today. Exciting to see how fast SpaceX is moving ahead.

[GeoffIX]

Congratulations on combining hopeful optimism with cautious awareness of the possible (and indeed eventual) scrub of today's Artemis launch. Good stuff!
All extremities crossed for success on 5th Sep. Third time's the charm!?

[davecowdrey]

I'm no rocket scientist but I would have thought NASA and Boing would have said to themselves, "Maybe we should fix the issues shuttle had with hydrogen leaks so it doesn't continue with SLS" but what do I know...

[aidrianyoutube]

Space is just so fascinating! Will be watching the Artemis 1 launch live today!

[dazuk]

Always enjoy a Marcus House vid. SLS might launch today as I have been keeping my eye on things. It will be amazing to see that thing launch, and to think we are finally going to send a crew capsule (all be it empty at this point) to the moon is amazing. Big shout to all who work on his channel.

[beastoptics]

Looking forward to ship 24's orbital test flight

[DreamskyDance]

Maybe they are making more tile-less Starships for the HLS for Artemis. Moon lander Starship will not need re-entry headshield so maybe they are steering r&d of Starship towards this direction.

[StingerNSW]

Thank you Marcus and to the entire team 👍

[matthewakian]

This show is always posted right on time.

[mikkery]

Good to hear SLS conducted another successful scrub today, lots of valuable data gathered no doubt.

[XmcgyvrX]

Thank you, just in time to give me a break from the computer and work :D Always look forward to your notification.

Just before the countdown hit zero i thought i heard "danger, danger Will Robinson!"
