Starship launch before the end of February? What do you think?

[SyncedJay]

For anyone wondering starship flight 8 is expected to launch no earlier than Feb 24th.

Great to see these short snaps from films, plans or documents. Its really good fun with so condensated but clear informations

[kiefnebula]

Always enjoy your videos and energy sir! Thank you very much!

Pad A would benefit greatly from Pad B's successes after it's 1st, 2nd and 3rd operational performances by highlighting Pad A's short falls. Essentially, dialing in what needs to be upgraded. Go SpaceX

i love the fact the paint is still on.

Fun Fact: Boeing's factory at Paine Field in Everett Washington has produced over 5, 000 widebody jets (747, 767, 777, and 787).
It is the world's largest building by volume at an extraordinary 13.5 million cubic meters! They even give tours!

@Whataboutit the support structure that was used to build the shop sticks, is called truss and is completely different than scaffolding.
A standard can max hold 10 tons.
The truss we cal it at stageco black steel. A truss system is overall more stable and stronger.

Great episode Felix. Thanks for you amazing research.

Looks like towah B is coming along nicely. I love the towahs!



Yes, I'm making fun of how you pronounce 'tower'😊

[ghille-da-kod]

Can't wait for Starship to come to Florida. I will be there.

4:47 these are some great aerial views!

Thanks you, nice WAI and Spacex .. 😊👍🏼🚀

[johncharles]

The production value of your video is incredible, as always. Great job, man.

I'm a Ground News subscriber.

In my opinion, SpaceX is a light year ahead of Blue Origin. That said, I agree that SpaceX needs competition. I'm happy about Blue Origin's successful first orbital insertion. The failure of the propulsive landing of the first stage was a learning experience à la SpaceX. I just wish Blue Origin was more transparent.

As for the failure of the Starship 33 for IFT7, it was a disappointment. I did expect better.

Here's where I'm weakest : I expected IFT1 to fail based on the experience of the soviet N1 rocket, which had 30 NK-15 engines (too many parts susceptible to failure). After subsequent Starship flights, I was proven wrong. What a joy to be proven wrong !

[dlfabrications]

Maybe they should put heat shield tiles on the launch pad?🤔

[markysspotlight]

Thank you Felix and WAI team 🫶 your true patrons enjoy every single video!

[etienne__k]

Up, down, up, down but you forgot open, close, open, close...🤣

7:05 I like both, blue origin will mean we will be able to amazon stuff to mars and the moon, spacex will bring humans to mars and the moon

[UltimateDan]

This gigabay is going to be sick, but they're going to need some epicbays if they want to build and launch enough starships to build up Mars.
