0:04
I live for the studio today. Heading down to Starbase.
0:06
Hopefully later today the wind is atrocious is why you to know
0:10
that wind is horrible? Let's just let's just call it.
0:13
I don't need it anymore. I think I'm pretty set up.
0:16
You know what it's podcast. I don't have to be perfect.
0:19
The newscast, let's go for this. Let's go for this.
0:23
Yeah. Paul Harvey, what's up man?
0:25
Stargazer grow, welcome back to Boca Chica soon.
0:28
Welcome back to Starbase Soon, Michael, with the new, News
0:31
coming in hot. Dang.
0:33
You got like a whole new show right there.
0:35
That's amazing. I'm just going to read your.
0:37
I'm just going to read your chat.
0:39
Then I'll be like that's the show, but you always Michaels
0:43
like you, you always come in hot with a news, so I'm I'm excited.
0:47
I love, I love that your interactive like that.
0:49
It's so cool Alessandra. How's it going?
0:51
Nancy Davis. I am starting now because you're
0:53
here, I'm starting now because you're here.
0:56
Michael said, SpaceX KSC is busy assembling all the olap.
1:01
S were calling in the bridge crane to stack them, while the
1:04
foundation hardens work on the launch table Foundation should
1:07
be underway as well. It took a long time for that to
1:11
harden here at Boca Chica so I'm not sure how long it's going to
1:17
take them if they have a different mix or anything like
1:19
that, as far as the carpet goes, or if they're going to lay more
1:22
concrete there. But I'm hoping they get this
1:27
thing done as soon as possible. I think that'd be amazing.
1:29
What's up chard? What's up Bob?
1:31
Bob drink, how you doing? Welcome back everybody.
1:34
So we're going to be talking about some space X, star ship
1:37
stuff coming up. We're talking about a little bit
1:40
of NASA, a little bit of X1, the ax 1 and Perpetual nerd, what's
1:45
up? And other various things just
1:48
mixed in here. So yeah, let's just let's just
1:52
talk about stuff, it's easiest that way, right?
1:55
It's the best way to do it. So, first and foremost, welcome
1:58
everybody. If you're new here, make sure to
2:00
subscribe. Sure, to give this a like, if
2:03
you're into space flight, because I do these every Monday
2:06
and Friday. Sometimes, Wednesday at noon,
2:08
CST from Brownsville about 20 miles from 2025 miles from
2:15
Starbase Texas. Where SpaceX is building the
2:17
Starship and I went down there yesterday and it was windy.
2:23
It was ridiculous for the first time ever in my I don't know how
2:29
long I've been here. Seven, eight months, whatever. /
2:32
I had to wear face protection because the wind was blowing
2:37
sand. So hard at my face.
2:41
That I couldn't open my eyes. It was crazy 30.
2:45
It was like 30 knots. I think it was maybe 35 40 miles
2:48
an hour in some gusts. So I was wearing like I was
2:52
wearing a mask. I was taking some wear
2:54
sunglasses and I was like, when I took those things off, I was
2:57
squinting and I couldn't see I was like this.
3:00
So it's a Environment to work in and me, I was only there for a
3:05
little bit, you know. Like I'm not there all day with
3:07
that. Like everybody else it's
3:08
building the Rockets. I'm there for x amount of hours,
3:13
you know, an hour to get some you know, and I got the, I got
3:19
this, I guess he had blasted, it's crazy.
3:21
But people were working, you know, there weren't that many
3:23
people working because it's a Sunday and usually down at
3:25
Starbase, there aren't a ton of people working.
3:28
They have sort of a skeleton crew and they kind of do what
3:31
they To do for the upcoming week and they get everything ready,
3:36
you know, for the for the testing that's going to be
3:39
happening in the next few days down there at Starbase and they
3:42
have some road closures, coming up in your talk about that.
3:46
But there's there's some some updates for booster 7 and
3:52
booster 8 that I think may be of interest to some people.
3:57
It's interesting to me because like they The iterate these
4:02
designs so fast that you never know what's going to be next,
4:07
right? So you got the, you got
4:09
everything that's there right now.
4:11
And in a few weeks, there's going to be a new one of the
4:14
thing that's there. So, booster 7.
4:17
It's, you know, it needs some engines and need some testing.
4:21
And booster 8 is basically it's pretty close to a clone of
4:25
booster rate or booster 7. And it's, it's very similar the
4:30
welding. I've seen the Thing I've looked
4:33
welding, booster 7. And there are some parts of the
4:36
metal that are sort of wrinkly if that makes sense.
4:39
If that I didn't, unfortunately, I didn't get it on film because
4:44
I was in the wrong spot to get that, but I've seen it as I've
4:47
been down. There has been walking around.
4:49
I didn't have my camera on me, but some of the parts of the
4:51
metal looked good in those parts that were just like a little bit
4:56
little bit off. So that being said, Booster 7
5:02
might not be the booster that SpaceX launches to orbit for
5:06
their first orbital flight test, which should be coming up
5:10
according to Elon. And may, we know, he'll on time,
5:14
everybody knows he'll on time, and Ilan time is never correct.
5:18
So, Let's just, let's just say maybe elon's wrong about this
5:24
one. Let's just say that, you know,
5:25
maybe maybe lines a little bit wrong.
5:27
So here this road closures to, for this week, there was a
5:31
primary date set for Monday. The road closure was canceled
5:35
for today, not sure why we don't know exactly why it was closed.
5:40
The winds are still kicking up, there's some bad weather.
5:44
Let me see. Actually, let me check this real
5:46
quick, just to make sure that I have the weather.
5:52
Proper. But we do have, you know, we
5:53
have high winds today, hazardous weather outlook for today.
5:58
And let's see. There's current rip currents
6:01
High, rip High Tides, elevated risk of high, winds Breezy and
6:09
Gusty, Southwest winds 20 to 25 miles an hour with gusts of up
6:14
to 40 miles per hour. So we have some high winds today
6:17
could be one of the reasons why they postponed the testing.
6:21
It could be Tuesday sunny and Breezy high of 87.
6:25
So the weather for this week is looking better, looking hot
6:30
Wednesday. It's going to be 97 degrees
6:33
here. That's hot, 97 degrees superhot
6:38
Thursday, 87 degrees, that's tolerable, you know, at the
6:42
night time it's about 72. So sometimes they get it already
6:45
during the day and then they test her in the night.
6:48
Sometimes they test throughout the day all this week it's going
6:50
to be around 90 degrees or higher.
6:52
So if you're planning a visit, I know.
6:56
The Stargazer girl was planning a visit, bring your sunscreen
7:00
bring a lot of water and a bring Appropriate clothing for the
7:06
weather because it is, it's hot here.
7:11
Yeah, it's for me being a Northeast guy.
7:15
I'm like, 97°. Really, like you want me to go
7:17
outside? You want me to go outside, do
7:20
anything? No, I'm going out later tonight.
7:22
You know, I'm going out later in the night.
7:24
I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna hang out in the sun all day long
7:26
because I'll burn up. So the weather could be a factor
7:34
today. Winds are so ghastly that maybe
7:36
they didn't want to chance it, I don't know the everything seems
7:41
okay. But knots of up to 40 miles an
7:43
hour, you know, 40-mile 45 mile an hour winds could be a factor
7:47
of them canceling that or they just weren't ready.
7:50
So tomorrow we have road closures, you know, we have road
7:54
closures from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday & Wednesday also.
7:59
So, over the weekend, they were connecting GSE lines to
8:04
boosters. Seven.
8:04
So it looks like they're going to be doing some testing on
8:06
booster 7 coming up soon. Some structural testing it looks
8:10
like they're going to be doing sir, pressure testing maybe
8:12
we'll do some more cryo testing soon, we'll see.
8:15
But also maybe booster 7 isn't the one maybe booster 7 is a
8:19
kind of a Pathfinder for booster 8 and that's what I want to
8:22
touch on a little bit. Is that booster 7 to base rate
8:25
are very, very similar. Booster 7, a booster, 8 are, you
8:29
know, they're pretty much the same booster.
8:32
Booster, 8 has some refinements that A little bit better and
8:36
there's a few rings missing from booster eight right now.
8:39
So they could possibly do Boost her seven testing just to kind
8:43
of path find for booster 8 and then move was straight down to
8:47
the launch site. You know if it's a better model
8:49
there's no reason for them to hold back because booster 9 is
8:53
right around the corner. They test a booster 7.
8:55
See, what's wrong with it. Maybe there's something wrong
8:57
with it. Maybe everything's perfect.
8:59
Who knows? But booster seven maybe isn't
9:02
perfect. So The move on from booster 72.
9:06
Booster 8 and use this as just a, you know, Pathfinder for
9:11
booster 8 and future boosters. So I'm looking around here and
9:14
I'm trying to find. There we go.
9:15
Booster 8 pretty close, you know, pretty close facsimile to
9:22
booster 7. So the it's possible.
9:26
It's really possible that booster 8 and booster 7 gets
9:29
switched out eventually and I know you'll on wants to fly in
9:33
May. What's the fly?
9:35
The orbital flight test in May, but if they going to be
9:38
switching out, booster seven and eight.
9:40
They still have to build booster 8, that takes a few weeks, and
9:45
then they have to test it, which takes a month.
9:48
Maybe. So looking to June June, July,
9:53
something like that, April, May, because we're beginning of
9:55
April. What I like April 11th right
9:57
now. So April 11th, if they build
10:00
out, booster 8, still, let's give it.
10:03
Let's just say roughly, Roughly a month to boost up to test
10:06
booster 7 to build up. Booster ain't about another
10:09
month, so maybe middle of May for booster 8 to be completely
10:14
ready. They move booster 8 down middle
10:17
of May April, or May 15th. And then they have to test
10:21
booster 84 a month by then boost our nine is, you know, it's
10:28
already going to be done by then, so why wouldn't they?
10:31
So it seems like an endless cycle of boosters Being upgraded
10:36
and moved to move to the launch site.
10:39
But if they're, if they made any significant upgrades to booster
10:43
8 and boost or nine which we haven't seen yet everything on
10:47
booster 9, we've seen most of it, you know, most of booster
10:50
booster 8 so what they're going to be doing with it.
10:53
But the, if there's, if there's any reason why they should skip
10:58
booster 7 to go to booster 8, then I think they're just going
11:01
to skip those 47. I think they're just going to go
11:04
Stray from booster 72, booster a and that's just my, you know,
11:08
this is my hot take on stuff and I was down there this weekend
11:10
and like I said, there was a skeleton crew down there.
11:12
There were some people down there but not every, you know,
11:14
there wasn't a full wasn't like a full run of employees down.
11:19
There's a few people here and there, there are people at the
11:25
bottom of booster for, they were inspecting something and there
11:28
were people at ship 20, which I'm not sure we're going to be
11:31
doing ship 20. So the other day, I was down at
11:36
Starship or a Starbase, sorry at the construction site and they
11:40
were doing some road work. And I went down there yesterday
11:43
and the roads were still ripped up and there's a big big lump in
11:48
the road as you go down towards the construction site from
11:53
Highway for. If you coming from Brownsville
11:55
into into the production site, there's a little bump going down
12:01
in a bump, going up, or bump going down, either one because
12:04
they ripped Up the road, there's a bump in and out of that
12:06
construction, so they might not be moving.
12:10
Booster booster for and shipped, 22.
12:16
This show is brought to you by backblaze.
12:19
I use backblaze to back up my podcast.
12:21
My video files, all of my writing stuff, and all my
12:24
photos. And you get unlimited computer
12:26
backup, for Macs and PCs for just $7 a month.
12:30
You can backup your own documents photos videos,
12:32
drawings projects. All Of your data and access your
12:36
backed up data from anywhere in the world using the web app and
12:39
you can access the files on your mobile to iOS Android apps all
12:43
covered. And this is a cool part.
12:44
This is my favorite part. You can restore it by mail, a
12:46
hard drive will come to your house with all your data shipped
12:50
to your door. It could come to your business
12:51
to and you can restore return refund program so you can buy a
12:55
hard drive restore, send the hard drive back within 30 days
12:59
and get a full refund. So basically they ship you this
13:02
hard drive and then you ship it back in.
13:04
You don't ever pay for it, which is the perfect program for
13:07
somebody who has huge files and you don't want to waste days and
13:10
days, downloading terabytes and teraflops of data.
13:13
And if you're worried about accidentally, deleting your
13:15
files to bucks extra month, you can increase your retention
13:18
history to one year, and I use it for all of my video.
13:22
Files comes in super handy. So seven dollars plus two
13:25
dollars nine dollars a month and you get everything backed up.

14:21

14:29
Garden anytime soon just because that road is ripped up.
14:34
That's possible. You know, maybe they'll get it
14:36
done to the next. It didn't look like that much
14:38
construction going on, so maybe they didn't dig down too much,
14:42
so maybe they'll get that repaved in the next week or so.
14:45
So we might see some movement a booster for and ship 20 in the
14:48
next week to just like move them out of there.
14:51
So be on the lookout for that. That's for the for the next for
14:56
the next week. This is a worker at the stage
15:01
zero there. He's just walking around.
15:03
I don't know exactly what he did.
15:04
Did I didn't see it can't really see from the footage but just
15:09
walked around did one thing? And then went back, it's pretty.
15:13
It's pretty cool to see, you know that sometimes there's just
15:17
like there's not a lot of stuff going on.
15:21
But behind the scenes, there's a ton of stuff going on.
15:23
Like that guy could have done. Could hit a button, you know,
15:26
could have flipped a switch or whatever, you know, in fixed 10
15:30
things, but we're not exactly sure what he did.
15:34
I looked over it with a few friends and they're like, oh,
15:38
these are people that go down to Starbase and hang out a star
15:41
because there's hoppy to, by the way.
15:43
I know some of you guys like hoppy.
15:44
So I decided that when I was down there, it was a really good
15:48
idea to film happy for a little bit.
15:50
I love happy, man. It's just, it's so 1950s sci-fi.
15:55
When you go down there, it really is.
15:57
It's like they're building. This crazy sci-fi World down
16:00
there, and yeah, happy It's just it's so cool.
16:06
I can't get over happy, I love it but it's big.
16:09
You know some people some people think you know happy happy is
16:12
kind of small but you know because we've seen videos and in
16:16
the videos it's like it's a Faraway thing you know like
16:18
happy is not that big in the videos so you see happy flying
16:25
through the air but the thing is gigantic the thing is huge.
16:30
So you try passing you're like Whoa man this thing's huge Pat
16:34
big On the wall, you know, it's just, it's a big thing.
16:37
So I thought it would be fun to get a little bit of footage of
16:39
happy for you guys. Always thinking about the show,
16:42
I was thinking about you guys, there's booster 7, the other
16:45
reason why I think booster 7 might just be Pathfinder is
16:48
because there's they didn't put on the grid fans yet and I would
16:57
assume they put on the Griffins before they moved it down there.
16:59
Unless there's unless they're going to move it back to the bay
17:01
and put them back on. But there's no real reason to
17:03
move it back. And forth like that because it
17:06
takes, I mean, it takes a couple hours to move it back there, but
17:10
I get, I mean, I don't know, I guess it depends on what their
17:13
schedule is and how they how they, how they put everything
17:17
together. But if they move booster seven
17:19
down there for all, this testing for 23 weeks, then they move it
17:22
back to the bay, to put the grid, fins on, or if they put
17:24
the Griffins on, you know, maybe they could probably put the
17:26
Griffins on possibly at the launch site with a crane, but I
17:32
don't think they're going to be moving it back anytime soon.
17:34
Do move it back. They're going to bring booster
17:36
it down in its place so it hits Ted brand by bring says happy
17:42
has so much personality. And Michael Maxie says happy
17:45
need some Rust treatment badly. Yeah, 100% that thing is looking
17:49
nasty. Now it gets pelted with sand all
17:52
day long. Like that's that's one of the
17:53
things that I was talking about earlier, the, the sand and like,
17:57
the abrasiveness of that environment is it's gnarly.
18:02
Sometimes, like, I don't even know.
18:04
Any other words there was to describe it but it is gnarly
18:07
even late at night when it's like, peaceful and calm and it's
18:11
really nice. It's like 70 degrees with a
18:14
slight breeze in your like, this is perfect.
18:17
Like this is the perfect weather and you can smell the Gulf of
18:20
Mexico and it's like you can smell the water.
18:23
It's so good. I can smell the beach and also
18:26
like there's no you can't really smell SpaceX.
18:29
You like it doesn't really have a, they're not burning anything,
18:32
it's not like rubber or like gasoline.
18:34
Clean or anything like that. It's very clean down there.
18:37
Still it does have a distinct smell because it's closed.
18:40
Like I said to the gulf but also down there.
18:43
Late at night, it gets windy and sand is just shooting
18:46
everywhere. And also these things have been
18:49
out in the sun for, you know, how he's been out there for a
18:52
long time. So, You know the fact that you
19:00
know, one of the things that's cool is the fact that SpaceX and
19:03
Starbase, you know, it's not that smelly I was assuming as I
19:07
was coming down here because I've been in, I've been
19:09
environments where it's you know, construction I've been in
19:13
you know, where they're building houses which also smells good to
19:15
me because all the all the raw wood but also, you know, where
19:19
they're burning tires and stuff like that.
19:21
Like, that's nasty, that's gnarly or when they're burning
19:23
oil or fuel or whatever. But SpaceX doesn't smell Like
19:26
that. So but it's also gnarly because
19:29
the sun is out and it's beating down it like 100 degrees every
19:34
day. Chard baby.
19:36
Thanks for becoming part of the cosmo crew, but that puts wear
19:41
and tear on something like happy or something like a booster or
19:46
ship 20 over time. So I think they, I think they
19:50
just need a little bit of time to fix that road and I think
19:53
they need to get the, you know, They need to continue working on
19:58
booster 74, what they need it for.
19:59
And then there I think they're going to ditch it and go to
20:01
booster rate to be honest with you.
20:05
Yeah so that's the I think that's the plan going forward.
20:08
So this yeah like I was saying this is just it's a it's a
20:12
gnarly place down there and I really hope that they move on
20:15
from 7 to 8 and ship 24. 24/7 would have been cool to launch
20:23
but 24 8 or 9 Fine that is catchy but still, it might work.
20:32
Bob breakouts watching the documents we can.
20:34
And then they started talking about a possible leak a bit
20:36
nervous until they got it figured out.
20:38
Yeah, I heard about that too. And the leak.
20:40
You know, it was it wasn't super big of a deal I guess would be a
20:46
good way to say it so the it was just a cautionary kind of thing
20:52
so we can get into that a little bit too.
20:53
Let's talk about ax, 1 Mission. So here's Little, here's little
20:57
tweet from NASA. Where was it?
21:01
I got a scroll down here for it. I guess I lost the tweet.
21:06
I would go X1 Mission from axioms face with four astronauts
21:09
aboard the SpaceX dragon and ever docked to the station today
21:12
at 8:29 am that's April 9th. 20, 22 April 28 29 a.m. eastern
21:20
time, this is pretty cool to look at this shot SpaceX dragon,
21:25
and ever occurring for A X1 astronauts, approaches the
21:30
station above South Africa, or South America, just after
21:34
orbital sunrise. So check this out.
21:37
You can see how small that thing is.
21:38
Can you see? Like, you can't even see that
21:41
you're watching that. But here's the, here's a
21:43
close-up of the dock. So yeah, there's there's a scope
21:49
back here, but it's very it takes forever for these things
21:53
to dock, right? So it's a very complex
21:58
mechanism, that makes sure that these things doc properly with
22:02
the space station, but fortunately for us, Michael
22:06
lopez-alegria, Larry O'Connor 8, in esteem and Mark path.
22:12
I arrived at the International. Space Station, unscathed.
22:16
So they're about 260 miles above the central.
22:20
Atlantic Ocean. When they docked with the
22:22
International Space Station, it was delayed about 45 Mission or
22:27
45 minutes as a space station teams, including Michigan,
22:29
trollers at SpaceX and NASA work to troubleshoot an issue.
22:33
Preventing the crew members on station from receiving views.
22:36
Choose from dragons Center Line camera of the harmonies module,
22:40
docking port. So the mission teams work to
22:43
root video using a SpaceX ground station to the crew on the space
22:48
station Long Dragon, to perceive a docking.
22:50
How crazy is that? So, they rebooted video just so
22:56
they could dock this ex1 Mission with the International Space
22:59
Station. So they lined up with the
23:02
module. Astronaut NASA, astronaut
23:05
station Commander Tom marshburn, pressurize, the space in between
23:10
the dragon and the space station hatches and perform a leak.
23:12
Check before opening the hatches to welcome the private astronaut
23:15
crew. So yeah, very cool, very, very
23:19
cool. What just happened?
23:20
What did we get? Happy Cappy, holy cow, I wasn't
23:23
paying attention. Happy can't be.
23:25
Thank you so much. Thank you so much for that.
23:28
Super Chat. You get some Starships for that.
23:30
Thank you so much. And again, thank you, shared
23:33
baby for becoming a member of the cosmos crew.
23:35
Welcome, welcome. Cim is very cool to watch the
23:37
docking Bow-Wow 21 plus h, and a small thing.
23:40
Yeah, could you imagine? I mean, it's an amazing.
23:42
It's an amazing feat that happens, right?
23:44
You've launched from the earth. And then from there, you have to
23:49
go all the way to the international space, edge of the
23:50
catch up to the space station and then you have to dock with
23:54
it. And you know, the the initial
23:56
day is like a 12-hour workday of you two sitting around, you
24:01
know, you know, don't sit around.
24:02
I mean there's a lot more to it than that but a lot of is a lot
24:05
of it is Is waiting for everything to happen.
24:08
You know, you sit in the in the capsule for hours possibly and,
24:13
you know, eventually I was having a discussion with
24:15
somebody on Reddit the other day.
24:16
Actually, this is a fun thing to think about a little mental
24:20
exercise. They were saying, The that the
24:26
Billionaire's in the Millionaire's right now are
24:31
doing these flights right there, go to the space station, they're
24:34
doing their own thing, doing the blue origin thing and they're
24:38
doing the, you know, they're doing all that all the private
24:41
space flights for rich people, right?
24:42
So you think about this the rich people know it's like 55 million
24:46
dollars to go to the space station or whatever, you know,
24:48
hundred thousand hundred million dollars to say that just say all
24:51
together with the training and everything how to million bucks.
24:54
That's a lot of money. If you get four people that's 25
24:57
million. Each is split, right?
25:00
And if you're a multi-millionaire hundred
25:02
million dollars in the bank and you have 25 million to do one
25:05
thing for one time in your life, right?
25:11
That's it. Like that's going to be the most
25:13
amazing thing you ever do in your life and it's 25 million
25:15
dollars out of your hundred million dollars in the bank.
25:18
Yeah, of course, you're going to do it.
25:20
Why wouldn't you do it? If you're an adventurous person,
25:22
I would do it, but at the beginning of human flight,
25:26
Wright brothers era, in then commercial flight, only people
25:30
that were wealthy could afford it.
25:32
Right? So it so in the beginning,
25:35
remember, I don't know if you seen the videos, but there's
25:37
people that were, like, dressed to the nines, like super wealthy
25:41
people that were dressed up in like top hats.
25:43
They're smoking cigars in there. They're doing all the things
25:47
that you would do in a really fancy schmancy Like old school
25:53
party time, right? So these rich people pave the
25:57
way for you, and me to get a flight from New York to LA for
26:00
400 bucks, right? That's affordable, 400 bucks.
26:04
And I'll, and you can get a beer, you can get a steak, you
26:08
can get, you know, you can get Electronics, you can get
26:12
anything you need at the airport because these people that were
26:15
super rich mega-rich did it in the beginning, and they paid The
26:20
way for us to do it not paved, they also paved but they also
26:24
paid the way to bring the cost down because more people do it.
26:29
The more cost-effective it's going to be.
26:31
So this ax 1 Mission, it costs a lot of money but they're Paving
26:36
the way and paying the way for us to get there in the future so
26:40
SpaceX and NASA work together, you know, blue origin, does it
26:44
by themselves. They have some other partners as
26:46
well. They also, you know, there's
26:51
Virgin Galactic Etc. There are a bunch of providers
26:55
that will facilitate these flights in the future and then
26:58
we're providers, we have the different styles of flight, like
27:02
a blue origin. Fight is basically like burp.
27:04
You come up, you go up, you come back down and SpaceX flight is
27:10
you stay up there, you fly up, you see up there for a couple of
27:12
days you know, with the with the Virgin Galactic you're up for a
27:20
Couple minutes. You know, you get weightless,
27:23
you hang out and then you fly back down in a plane like you're
27:27
in a plane, the whole Timeless space plane.
27:30
How crazy is that? You're in a space plane and then
27:33
you fly back down to earth safely.
27:36
It's insane. So, the inspiration for mission
27:38
was what I was talking about earlier where you fly up to
27:40
orbit, and then you come back down with a, in a pod with a
27:45
parachute, you know, that whole thing, it's pretty crazy to
27:49
think about that, but This ax 1 Mission going to the space
27:53
station. These people Paving the way for
27:55
the rest of us to eventually becoming a space Society.
28:00
You know, we're going to have more people in orbit than ever
28:05
before in the next ten years because we'll have private space
28:09
stations like the Axiom space station, I'll private space
28:13
station. Maybe other providers will jump
28:16
in and make their own space stations to maybe, there's going
28:18
to be a giant space station. In between the Earth and the
28:22
moon, the LaGrange Point sometime in the future.
28:25
Who knows, who knows where it's going to be, but it's going to
28:28
be the next 10 years are going to be absolutely incredible for
28:32
spaceflight. And I know that if SpaceX can
28:36
figure out Starship, it's going to change everything.
28:39
So this ax 1 Mission change the game completely, change the
28:43
game, and next up will be Starship.
28:48
Once they get that figured out. So, that's going to be Laris
28:50
missions and that's going to change the game again.
28:53
You know, one SpaceX launches this thing launch a Starship and
28:57
make sure that it actually works.
28:59
Yes, it's going to be insanely, insanely Progressive for the
29:02
next 20 years, 30 years, and then it's going to be pretty
29:07
normal. You know, it's taken 100 years,
29:10
you know, to get regular flight to where it is now and, you
29:15
know, spaceflight like it was pretty much like overnight the
29:19
way that regular flight. Commercial flight started, you
29:24
know, it was like Wright brothers and then, oh yeah, I
29:26
can go to Hawaii. Now this is it was like, if
29:29
seemed like, it was a couple years, right?
29:31
You know, and now we can jump on a flight and go anywhere in the
29:34
world if you want to and pretty soon, we'll be able to jump on a
29:38
rocket to go anywhere in the solar system because of these
29:42
people, the ax 1 missions, so groundbreaking and so.
29:48
So forward thinking of them And they also did experiments, you
29:51
know, they're doing experiments on the ISS.
29:53
They're not just there for a fun ride, they're there because
29:59
they, you know, because they wanted to make a, make a, make a
30:04
change, you know, make a difference.
30:06
So yeah, I really appreciate those guys doing that, because
30:10
it's insane. How cool it is Bob, bring says,
30:14
it is crazy to think they're all traveling. 17,000 plus miles per
30:17
hour to make everything. Yeah, I'm right there with you.
30:20
You like I might have blown I go 70 miles an hour on the highway
30:23
and I'm like, you know, this is crazy, you know like but could
30:28
you imagine going 17,000 miles per hour, flying above the
30:31
Earth. Kenneth thank you so much for
30:33
that. Super Chat to, by the way.
30:36
Uh, amazing. Thank you so much.
30:38
You get some Starships. Check this out.
30:40
You get some Starships. Happy is finishing up with his.
30:43
Then we got, Kenneth are naughty, thank you so much for
30:47
that, Super Chat, appreciate it. I like the Hat on the guy,
30:50
that's Cool to and Little Hippo man Micromax has NASA estimates.
30:55
We will go to Mars by 2040. Alana wants to be on Mars by
30:58
2030. Yeah, that's gonna be cool.
31:02
I am excited about that too. If they can send people to Mars
31:06
2030, you know, it's 2022. Now if even if it's even if it
31:11
is 2040, if it's 2050, you know, we still have 30 years, I hope
31:16
I'm around still then, you know, 30 years, who knows, but If I
31:20
get to see somebody step on the planet Mars in my lifetime, I'm
31:25
going to flip out. Like I've already flipped out
31:27
enough, you guys know me. I flip out all the time so if
31:31
somebody actually steps on Mars in my lifetime and I get to see
31:33
it, I will I'll flip out. So that's the plan for SpaceX
31:42
and NASA in the future is to get somebody there in the next 10
31:47
15, 20 years. So what else do we have to do?
31:52
Today was to have to cover. There's some other stuff too.
31:57
Yeah, that's the docking again. We got that going on.
32:00
We got some Artemis stuff to Artemis.
32:04
One moon mission, update Nest. Kennedy will conduct a modified
32:07
wet dress rehearsal in preparation for launch with
32:09
taking operations, no earlier than April 14th.
32:13
SLS and NASA, Orion will then return to the Vehicle Assembly
32:17
Building. Yeah, April 14th, a couple days
32:22
from now. It's the 11th today, but I also,
32:25
I gotta show you guys this too. And I these, we partnered with
32:31
The yours app and they're helping us out with the show.
32:36
And I use this to go to sleep. I've told people this numerous
32:39
times the or zap your sap.com/learnbi, Ace the word
32:43
space, they helped me out. You get 60% off the or zap.
32:49
Basically, Gabby be nice. You know, you have less stress
32:55

33:08
I used they have like a story time that I listen to, It's like
33:11
a like a little like a mini audiobook, like a 20-minute
33:13
audiobook, it's like a bedtime story and usually I would do
33:17
like nature sounds and stuff and crickets and you know, streams
33:22
and stuff. But I study using the yours app
33:25
and the effect it has had on. My sleep has been great and I go
33:29
to sleep every night. And I wake up and I'm okay.
33:33

34:05
Thanks so much for your Zap for partnering with show.
34:07
Now, let's talk about some actually, you know what?
34:10
The Artemis, wet dress rehearsal.
34:11
Let's talk about that for another second here.
34:13
Artemis, and NASA is planning to proceed with modified wet dress
34:16
rehearsal. I want to, I want to show you
34:17
this because it's directly from NASA plan to proceed with
34:21
modified wet dress rehearsal, primarily focus on tanking, the
34:23
core stage and minimal propellant operations, the
34:26
interim cryogenic propulsion, CCI CPS But the ground systems
34:31
that Kennedy due to changes in loading process procedures
34:34
required for the modified test. This is the important part.
34:36
Wet dress rehearsal, testing is slated to resume with calls to
34:39
stations on Tuesday. April, 12.
34:41
And taking on to Thursday April 14th.
34:44
So, they're going to start it up again tomorrow.
34:46
Call the station's, get everything ready, and then a
34:49
full, or a wet dress rehearsal on the 14th opportunity, to
34:53
refine the countdown procedures. So they're going to be going
34:55
through everything. They already did with the wet
34:57
dress rehearsal before. And I'm going to get into
35:00
everything else. So that's the plan for the wet
35:04
dress rehearsal. Going forward, Engineers are
35:06
identified a helium check valve. That is not functioning as
35:09
expected. Requiring, these changes to
35:11
ensure safety of the flight Hardware.
35:14
So yeah, they're going to do a modified test and the gonna hope
35:19
it works then I guess send it back to the Fab.
35:21
So that's sort of the latest from the Artemis program and one
35:27
more thing before we We go one more.
35:29
One last thing that I got a tick off as a lot of stuff.
35:34
I got do behind the scenes today.
35:36
Hello Marina. How you doing?
35:39
Finally back, welcome back. Not sure if it's true.
35:41
But can SLS go to Mars? It's going to be a deep space.
35:46
I don't know why that's not showing up there.
35:48
It's going to be a deep space flight Hardware.
35:52
So, yeah, it should be able to go around the solar system and
35:54
send probes and things all over the place.
35:57
So it can Ali. Go to Mars.
36:01
I predict 2034 fused first human on.
36:04
Mars says happy. I hope so.
36:06
I really do. I really hope it's pretty early
36:08
like that. I think would be really cool.
36:10
The next eight years to see somebody on Mars.
36:13
Yeah, I would go crazy. I have to watch the replay
36:17
there. Do some go do some work, stoop,
36:19
responsibilities things and see, Davis.
36:21
I hear you. That's what I'm doing after this
36:23
to in a couple minutes here. I gotta go do some
36:25
responsibility stuff. I'm a Axiom one.
36:28
I missed their lunch though. Yeah, I watch the launch.
36:31
It was, it was cool. It's like you hold your breath
36:35
for them and you hope that it works.
36:37
And, you know, it's it's going to be it's going to be cool when
36:42
they come back to and they have all their stories and I have all
36:45
the press conferences and stuff first person on Mars, but the
36:47
end of the decade. I think that would be awesome.
36:50
And I would be, I'd be pretty happy.
36:53
Michael Maxie says the SLS launched, our suffers a broken.
36:56
Catch valve. That prevents fuel back slow.
36:58
Yeah, I hope I hope they get everything figured out with the
37:01
SLS like I'm not team SpaceX only.
37:04
I'm team spaceflight and you know there's team space and all
37:09
that you know all the all those space people that are supporting
37:13
each other out there. So I'm a supporter of all space
37:16
flight. So I think it's important that
37:18
we get this thing done and I hope they get all the testing
37:20
down by the 14th and they fix everything and they move on to
37:23
the next testing procedures one last thing though.
37:27
Okay, so this is Is it just the cool tweet from Elon convert
37:32
Twitter? San Francisco headquarters to
37:33
homeless shelter since no one shows up?
37:35
Anyway, 91% Point ninety. One point three percent say yes,
37:42
support homeless people, homeless shelter at the Twitter
37:48
San Francisco headquarters. Since most people use me, most
37:52
people at Twitter, our remote now Twitter switched over.
37:58
To a remote work environment. Mania remote work environment.
38:03
You can show up if you want to, but the Twitter headquarters is
38:07
huge. So you Lon since he is a
38:10
shareholder he can kick and kind of ask people to do things now
38:16
and hey guys, do you think we should do homeless shelter
38:19
because we take up a bunch of real estate, we own this real
38:22
estate, why don't we help people if we're not using it, you know,
38:26
should we rent this out? Or should we give it give back
38:29
to the people? Of San Francisco.
38:32
So Ilan, says convert Twitter San Francisco HQ at a homeless
38:37
shelter since no one shows up. Anyway, 91.3% say yes, eight
38:41
point seven percent say, no, I don't know who those people are
38:44
like, why wouldn't you want a homeless shelter?
38:47
You know, why wouldn't you want a homeless shelter?
38:51
Don't understand it. But 8.7% people are horrible,
38:54
people, and don't want a homeless shelter.
38:57
So The fact that Ilan has some pull at Twitter now and he also
39:05
declined his his seat for the Twitter board there's some other
39:12
stuff going on there which is it some other stuff but Jeff Bezos
39:17
in Ilan check this out. Jeff Bezos the me Lon you know
39:19
we all wanted we all want to yell and fight about Jeff Bezos
39:23
and Elon Musk being a mortal enemies till the end of time.
39:28
Jeff Bezos. Reached out to Elon on Twitter
39:30
said, or do you portion? Worked out great and makes it
39:33
easy for employees who want to volunteer.
39:36
Elon Musk says great idea so it's portion.
39:38
So you click through geek wire has this Amazon's new eighth
39:44
floor. Family homeless shelter,
39:45
attached to a Seattle headquarters, in-depth coverage
39:48
of Amazon from data attached to one of Amazon's downtown Seattle
39:52
Office Buildings this from Geek wire in the heart of the tech
39:54
Giant's headquarter campus, a new homeless shelter, built by
39:57
the company company is now open and servicing people in need
40:01
eight, floors, 200 people per night and more than 1,000
40:05
families. Emily members per year they can
40:08
help people you know eight floors but look how cool this is
40:13
like look it look at how beautiful this is as a as a
40:16
homeless shelter like there's a little school in there.
40:19
It's a really nice place. You know, they're doing, they're
40:22
helping people out and I think they should because they have
40:25
the room to do it. I mean that's a that's a nice
40:28
cafeteria. Why do you say so like I would
40:32
eat there, it's he's like, it's a great way to do it.
40:35
It's an easy way to use this space to help people out.
40:41
Be nice to people. It don't just worried about all
40:45
the money, you know, like because they're San Francisco
40:48
headquarters. Probably not a lot of people
40:49
there, but little story, you know, there's like clothes, you
40:53
know, you can pick out clothes, whatever.
40:55
There's a full kitchen, which is amazing as little A place to
41:01
hang out. Yeah, it's beautiful.
41:03
And also like if you're homeless and like this shows up, like,
41:07
this is, this is like a blessing.
41:11
For you so you know the help families out do it up, you Lon.
41:16
So what I think what I think is going to happen so this is so
41:21
Ilan said no to the board assignment, right?
41:26
So let's see here. And I'm going to I'm going to
41:28
show you this too which is I think, is this one?
41:30
Yeah, there we go. Team, this is directly from from
41:33
the Twitter board team. Elon Musk has decided not to
41:37
join our board. Here's what I can share about
41:39
what happened the board and I had made discussions about you
41:42
Joining the board in, with the Elan directly, we were excited
41:45
to collaborate and clear about the clear about the risks.
41:48
We also believe that having Elon is a fiduciary of the company
41:51
where he like all board members has to act in the best interest
41:54
of the company, and all our shareholders was the path
41:57
forward best path for the board. Offered him a seat, so they
42:02
said, hey Ilan. Come on in.
42:04
We know you spent a bunch of money.
42:06
You just bought a bunch of stock we appreciate you.
42:09
Come on, and join the board. Help us out.
42:11
Out we announced on Tuesday the elide would be appointed to the
42:14
board contingent on a background check and formal acceptance.
42:18
Eli's appointment to the board was to become officially
42:20
effective 49, but Elon shared the same morning that he will no
42:24
longer be joining the board. I believe this is for the best,
42:28
okay? So the board is saying like, oh
42:30
yeah, this is this good we're fine, we have and will always
42:33
value input from our shareholders, whether they are
42:36
are bored or not Ilan has our biggest shareholder and we will
42:38
remain open to as input. Does the power move?
42:42
This isn't. This isn't Eli going like, you
42:44
know, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna talk to you guys.
42:46
This is Elon saying, because if you're sitting on the board, you
42:50
can't buy the company. Does it heal on saying no I'm
42:54
going to buy this place. I'm going to control it and we
42:59
are going to change Twitter. This is exactly what's happening
43:04
right now. It's not about Eli had taking a
43:06
step back. This is a this is a takeover of
43:09
Twitter for me Lon If you sitting on the board he can't do
43:13
that. He can't buy more shares.
43:15
But if he's not on the board, he can buy as many shares.
43:17
He want, he can get 51% and he can have control of the company.
43:21
So Ilan making power moves here. It's funny because they were
43:26
like, hey, come on in Buddy, it'll come on in, come hang out,
43:29
but then he lies like, you know what, I'm not getting anything
43:33
done. I need to be in charge because
43:35
that's what exactly what happened is, Eli would have
43:38
these ideas, you know, he has, he has ideas You know, make an
43:41
edit button work for everybody. Or if you're a Twitter blue
43:46
person you get a check mark next to your name.
43:48
Like that would make sense for a lot of people.
43:51
You pay the money. You're already.
43:53
Like you are a, you know, you might not be the best
43:59
journalist, you know, but you paid your money to get a check
44:02
mark. Basically if your Twitter blue
44:03
member so he's like, those are some of his ideas.
44:05
I'm not saying that the best ideas, but those are some of his
44:07
ideas. So going forward, he can if he's
44:13
majority stake owner and he could just buy people out, you
44:16
know, he can he can buy their stocks that's how it works.
44:20
It's not a hostile takeover, anything like that, he's going
44:24
to buy more stocks. He's going to get 51% of the
44:27
stock and then he's going to do what he thinks is.
44:32
Right. And I think what he's going to
44:34
do is make it into a platform where free speech.
44:39
Which he considers free speech is basically anything you want
44:42
to say, you can see on Twitter, but there might be other ways to
44:47
mitigate the free speech, like maybe there's a down vote
44:49
button. Maybe there's, you know,
44:51
something like that where your wrangled in, if you are kind of,
44:57
you know, if you're being mean to people, there's got to be a
45:00
way to help those people. Like not, you know, not get
45:05
harassed and not get brigaded. So, They'll figure that out.
45:10
But right now it's all the power move by Elon to get control of
45:14
Twitter, which is effectively where all of the news outlets go
45:18
to post their news immediately. So aligned would have control
45:23
Twitter, he'd have kind of what he would have control over the
45:26
news feed at this point. And, you know, he would he'd
45:31
make some changes, whatever changes, he wants to make and
45:33
we'll see Elon is free to buy more stock in the open market.
45:39
A maxi. Yeah, he can just, he's Rich so
45:42
he doesn't have to care. The Elan is ridiculously
45:45
wealthy. So he can buy whatever stock he
45:47
wants to elon's. Put the ideas out there, so now
45:52
it's up to the board to act chard baby.
45:54
Yeah, exactly. If they want to they can you
45:56
know if if they go like hey man we can work with the Elan
45:59
because they know in the future Eli's just going to take over
46:02
anyway. But the last paragraph is kind
46:04
of kind of funny here. There will be distractions head
46:08
but our goals. And produce remain unchanged
46:10
decision we make and how we execute it is in our hands and
46:13
no one else's. Let's tune out.
46:15
The noise and stay focused on the work.
46:17
What and what we're building, so they're building, they're always
46:20
building. They're always always upgrading
46:23
there's all new code all the time at Twitter so you know
46:27
they're going to continue building what they think is the
46:30
best platform. And if he'll end, does end up
46:33
buying all the stock and taking over then you know, then we'll
46:38
see where that goes. But Jeff Bezos on the Washington
46:41
Post throughout history of the United States.
46:46
Very wealthy. People have bought up the news
46:49
basically all of the news you know and they control the news.
46:53
So this is just another example of somebody who's mega-wealthy
46:57
buying up sort of a news outlet and it's kind of an aggregator
47:01
for all the other news outlets to.
47:02
So we'll see where it goes. That's all we can say.
47:05
At this point, we don't really know exactly what he's going to
47:07
be doing but hopefully he's gonna To be doing something
47:10
pretty amazing with Twitter in the future.
47:12
So that's about it for now. Thanks for watching everybody.

47:36
Michael Maxi, as Twitter is where mainstream reporters go to
47:38
post their Opinions on the news without advertising edit.
47:42
Yeah, exactly, that's exactly what it is.
47:44

47:48

47:51
you post your news, but also your little take on it without
