Starship | 360 Video of Liftoff

Starship returned to integrated flight testing with its second launch from Starbase in Texas. While it didn’t happen in a lab or on a test stand, it was absolutely a test. What we did with this second flight will provide invaluable data to continue rapidly developing Starship.

On November 18, 2023, Starship successfully lifted off at 7:02 a.m. CT from Starbase in Texas and achieved a number of major milestones, including all 33 Raptor engines on the Super Heavy Booster starting up successfully and, for the first time, completed a full-duration burn during ascent.

This 360-degree view comes from the top of the launch tower at Starbase in Texas, providing a front row seat to watch liftoff of the world’s most powerful launch vehicle ever developed.

This is amazing. I hope SpaceX keeps up posting quality content on YouTube. I miss 4K streams.

Seeing the acceleration up close is pretty crazy

[icemanu]

Impressive how much faster Starship launched this time, compared to the last first one.

[bideford-Annette]

Please, pretty please, do both on youtube and X. I love to watch both for launches and updates. This was the best ever.

[valiantJagerB]

Incredible.... please keep uploading to youtube Space X

[woomba]

That might be the coolest rocket 360 video ive ever seen!

[ifkq]

SO rad. Please do this for every single launch and landing.

[ViperEye]

Those 33 raptors and their white glow really are a jaw-dropping sight. I hope to see the booster return next time. You're getting there!

[madgaming]

Very cool. Thanks SpaceX. Please, if possible, show some on-board views next from IFT2.

Woah, this is insane! Whoever thought to install a 3D camera on the tower is a genious

[omnislide]

Can’t wait for the 360 video of the next moon walk!

[SpaceflightSimulator_Official]

Please SpaceX release more footage like this!

[WhyNot]

it doesn't get much cooler than this!

[ReadyPlayerEmma]

Watching this in 360 VR in 4K on the Quest 3 browser is incredible.

All I want for Christmas is for Spacex to come back to YouTube

I'm 61 and have been an avid fan of space exploration all my life and I've spent most of my life thinking I would never see a rocket the size of a Saturn V launch again (we were told they wouldn't be necessary). Now, not only to be seeing an even larger rocket launch but with this level of interaction: I'll be honest, it always brings tears to my eyes.

[arnauds]

More of this please, because the twitter video and stream quality feels like time travel to the early 2000s

[bobbylashleysheadband]

Saw this in person. Might've been the best thing I've seen. Had to stop and park so I could see this liftoff. T shook my car a little, but what was cool was I heard it from where I was. It was awesome

[ricc]

Amazing!!! And it's possible to see the sqd arm during launch!! So cool

[Earthling]

Can’t wait to see them catch that booster.
