Today I want to explore with you the amazing SpaceX milestones coming in 2020. Of course, we can’t forget the massive year that SpaceX has had in 2019, but quite a few delays crept in there due to other projects being developed such as Starship and Crew Dragon development. Even still, SpaceX launched 11 Falcon 9 rockets one of them with the incredible Crew Dragon Demo 1 flight and two groundbreaking Starlink missions sending packs of 60 satellites into orbit. Just this week we’ve seen SpaceX stacking up the beginnings of the Starship. We see it outside being inspected prior to it being taken to the windbreak structure for more construction. We have a new nose cone here, new header tanks. Loads of work at the facility itself. The pace of development here is now really screaming along. Interestingly we spotted an FCC application submitted this week indicating mid-March to September for an experimental launch, landing, and recovery of a Starship suborbital test. This is exciting in itself. If we see such a thing prior to mid-year, could it be possible to see a prototype super heavy vehicle being constructed as well? This is going to be an amazing year.

Australian telecommunications regulators have given initial approval required for access to the starlink network here in Australia 🇦🇺
Finally our crappy internet will come out of the dark ages. Thank you Elon! We love your Vibe 🕺

Everyone on the outside:
Aw man starliner is having so many problems.
Everyone on the inside: yes!! Starliner is having so many problems, now crewdragon will be the first!!



Edit: and SpaceX will get the credit they deserve for doing as much as they are on a lower budget.

It will be really interesting when we see the first New Glenn booster. Amazing to think that SLS, Starship & New Glenn could all launch in the same year, next year.

There are no "delays" when creating. It takes the time it takes.

I'm really looking forward to seeing a starship launch into orbit. I've seen the spacex live streams. Unbelievable

[peterray]

The last time I was this early, Falcon Heavy hadn't flown yet

[philrabe]

2:20 not an explosion, just an unscheduled rapid disassembly sequence. Caught a good design bug too, who knew?

[darringreen]

You must not have heard the teleconference NASA and Boeing had with reporters where even more issues were found with the software code that may require another demo mission before NASA certifies it for human spaceflight. There is even a possibility that Starliner may not fly with humans this year. An independent review is still ongoing.

Excellent episode Marcus. I'm awake early on Sunday morning to watch your latest.
You asked whether the starship will do orbital flights this year? Definitely, if there are no unexpected delays I believe the near orbit flight will be in June. This will test the re-entry tiles and maneuvering fins. Followed by a super heavy in August to deliver a full payload to orbit. Further announcements will follow that will blow your mind.

4:15 - Yesterday there was a report on the problems of Boeing's uncrewed space flight. It indicated that while looking over what had gone wrong during launch, Boeing engineers discovered a problem that could have led to the loss of the capsule.

Future looks bright, I know we’re I’m getting my news from...

[deangriffin]

Are they currently in the process of building the super heavy? That looks a monster!

Great video. Thanks for all your efforts to keep us informed on the latest and greatest in space news.
As a side note, I was looking for a good VPN for my family's multiple devices. I saw the SurfShark sponsor, gave it a look, and signed up.
Thanks again from a guy in Canada. (With my new VPN though, who knows where I'll be from next time)

[MLFG]

Yaaaa Marcus! Another awesome video. Thanks!!

[questionmania]

Yes orbital test will definitely happen this year . definitely

[sbrown]

Can’t wait for starlink I might keep my lte service as a backup.

[Ligerzeronz]

Welcome to 2022, where this video just seems, ancient history already

[Eric_the_Hiking]

Bob and Doug will take off.
Cooo, loo, coo, coo, coo, coo, coo, coooo!

19 flights before retirement? You may now Rest Falcon9, your service to this proto-imperum of man will be recognized in due time.
