Will it be able to close after ignition? What do you think, Starship experts?

[scottie_]

Easily the best overview of the Starship program to date.

[KuroKoopa]

To see this thing catch a rocket out of the air is going to be more historical than people think.

[dlewis]

I saw a good video today from Grady at Practical Engineering. He talked about the soil settling at the SpaceX launch site. Good overview about that period of time when there was a huge pile of dirt here.

[ZanyGod]

Great job conveying the ongoing status of things at the Star Base; it is comprehensive integrative. Great job.

What an EXCITING time to be alive!

Plus, this channel is way more informative than just looking at pics of the development of starbase. You get a better understanding of the progress.

Can I support the opinion that Space Shuttle could be considered a reusable upper stage? Great work, Felix! You rock!🤘

[melkins]

I just visited Starbase. Most amazing place on this planet. I will never be the same

"An upper stage has never been reused before"
Space shuttle has entered the chat

[valamaas]

The first panoramic shot is awesome. Now I see the distance to the launch site.

[DaveYogs]

A much needed analysis, I have been looking for a rundown!

[StoneUSA]

Correction: Starhopper (2019) was the first flight of the Raptor full flow engine.

[Ronolein]

Mein Englisch wird mit der Zeit immer besser, je öfter ich Dir folge. Besten Dank für Deine Beiträge!

[illuminatedproductionsinc.]

I missed these oldschool deep dive explainer video. Thanks Felix and the team

[MrHichammohsen]

Man i wish i was in the USA to be at the meeting, but i know the WAI family will cover it and make it like we all were there.

4:42 The Raptor flew on star hopper previously so it wasn't the first time in human history. Although it was the first for a full starship prototype and a second proof of concept for the raptor.

[EaglePicking]

"An upper stage has never been reused. Ever".
What about the Space Shuttle, though?

[LegixInfo]

Isn't the Space Shuttle an "upper stage" essentially?

[topsecret]

5:01 We all know what the FAA document said when it comes to there being many suborbital flights in the near future from the site, especially for operationally transferring ships to other sites without going to the length of shipping the ships by barge to the offshore rigs.

[anodominate]

Everything taking shape and FELIX u still rockin.😘😘l
