  Hello everybody and welcome back to the space news pod.
• 0:02
  My name is Will Walden. And on this episode, we're going
• 0:04
  to be talking about the upcoming rocket launch this week.
• 0:10
  Starship, sn9 has been slated to launch.
• 0:14
  At the end of this week, we can all remember sna-sna-snake will
• 0:19
  be loved and cherished forever because it made a Believer out
• 0:24
  of so many people that thought sn8 couldn't do what it did.
• 0:29
  Launch was great Edge and cut offs were great.
• 0:32
  It got to the right altitude, it belly flopped, it did the little
• 0:37
  flippy thing that little warp the pendulum Perfect Landing
• 0:43
  didn't go too well but that's okay.
• 0:46
  They cleaned it up. They cleaned up all the mess at
• 0:48
  sna made and next see what a launch asinine, it's about three
• 0:54
  weeks ago that doesn't 8 was launched but now they want to
• 0:57
  Launch sn9. Then on Friday.
• 1:02
  And they literally just poured, the new pad from, We're snea
• 1:06
  decimated, the original Landing Pad.
• 1:09
  They just did it less than 48 hours ago.
• 1:13
  So, what the heck SpaceX? This is crazy in a good way.
• 1:19
  So we're just waiting. You know, we're we're waiting
• 1:22
  just like everybody else. Is there to see what's going to
• 1:24
  happen. So, what to expect, from this
• 1:28
  launch Okay, so we know that sn8 went to 12.5 K, we know that the
• 1:35
  engines work pretty good as good as they could for the first
• 1:38
  launch test. Great.
• 1:40
  Okay, we know everything else. I already stated before
• 1:44
  everything went great. So what are they gonna do with
• 1:46
  sn9 compared to sn8? And we've been having
• 1:50
  discussions back and forth about what's going to happen.
• 1:52
  How they're going to launch this thing?
• 1:54
  How high they're going to launch this thing.
• 1:56
  What they're going to do during the process.
• 1:58
  But we came up with a few A few simple things.
• 2:01
  Well, I guess one simple thing which is do the same thing you
• 2:05
  did with SSA because you have to prove that you can do that and
• 2:08
  land properly. So there are barely any
• 2:11
  differences between acity and I said nine there's a little bit
• 2:15
  of shielding right? So re-entry shielding for sn9
• 2:22
  it's a tiny bit but they don't really need to test it.
• 2:25
  They just have to make sure that it works, you know, and that it
• 2:28
  can withstand the, you know, withstand the belly-flop
• 2:32
  basically and not fly off and not not burn up or anything like
• 2:36
  that. I'm sure it'll be fine but The
• 2:40
  Landing is what they need to stick because we want to see.
• 2:43
  Let me see. We want to see The Landing, you
• 2:45
  know, everyone wants to see the landing and it's gonna be really
• 2:47
  great if it does happen. And then with this test article,
• 2:50
  if they're done with this, that they get everything, perfect, it
• 2:55
  doesn't have to be perfect, perfect.
• 2:56
  It could be pretty close to perfect SM. 10 is literally
• 3:00
  right around the corner from asinine.
• 3:02
  S N9 has a static fire tomorrow. Like I said before, Mary has
• 3:07
  posted something out of Twitter about it, so you know it's legit
• 3:11
  and the FAA has deemed SpaceX. Okay?
• 3:15
  To fly sn9 from the land. All the way to space coming up
• 3:25
  on Friday at 1400 UTC. That's the January 8th of 2021.
• 3:32
  January 8th 2021 at 23:59 UTC, the show is brought to you by
• 3:39
  backblaze. I use back place to backup my
• 3:42
  podcast, my video files, all of my writing stuff and all my
• 3:46
  photos. And you get unlimited computer

  access the files. Your mobile to iOS Android apps

• 4:06
  This is my favorite part. You can restore it by mail, a
• 4:08
  hard drive will come to your house with all your data shipped
• 4:11
  to your door. It could come to your business
• 4:13
  to and you can restore return refund program so you can buy a
• 4:17
  hard drive restore, send the hard drive back within 30 days
• 4:20
  and get a full refund. So basically they ship you this
• 4:23
  hard drive and then you ship it back and you don't ever pay for
• 4:26
  it which is the perfect program for somebody who has huge files.
• 4:30
  You don't want to waste days and days.

  Downloading terabytes and teraflops of data.

  files to bucks extra month, you can increase your retention
• 4:40
  history to one year, and I use it for all of my video.

  Ilan. So that's basically all day and
• 5:52
  the altitude is from the surface to space.
• 5:56
  Does that mean SpaceX is going to launch this thing to space?
• 6:01
  Probably not. Like we said before, 12.5 is
• 6:05
  probably the way to go. And 15K.
• 6:09
  They might push it up to 15 K. I mean there's no reason not to
• 6:13
  but there's also no reason to actually pushed up to 15 K
• 6:17
  because I mean they but so these are the things that we have to
• 6:21
  think about 2.5 k sa made it. Perfect.
• 6:25
  Right? Made up to 12.5 belly flop.
• 6:27
  Everything was great. Landing, not so much.
• 6:30
  Could they push it up? To 15K and do the same thing
• 6:35
  that a sedated, but actually land the thing.
• 6:39
  Would they test that already or would they stay safe and do 12,
• 6:43
  .5 K first? Make sure that is perfect and
• 6:48
  then move on to 15K with SM tent because like I said, before s
• 6:51
  antenna is literally right around the corner ready to
• 6:54
  launch and all they have to do is almost bring it out to the
• 6:58
  pad, you know. I think that's, that's pretty
• 7:00
  much it. There might, there's a little
• 7:02
  there's a few little things they have to do, but they also, you
• 7:05
  know, they're ready to move on from sn9 after this, Friday's
• 7:09
  launch. So I want to make sure that
• 7:12
  everybody knows. There's a link in the
• 7:13
  description if we're to go watch it because we're going to be
• 7:15
  hosting it live all day long. So make sure to check that out,
• 7:20
  get reminders, get notifications, subscribe to the
• 7:22
  channel, Etc, because this is going to be amazing.
• 7:26
  This is the stuff, okay? So this is a little little
• 7:29
  sidebar here. This is the stuff I wanted when
• 7:31
  I was a little Kid. I these things like all the
• 7:35
  Starship stuff, like I wanted to see a Starship built, I want to
• 7:39
  see a spaceship built. We actually get to see that.
• 7:42
  So how cool is it that we actually get to witness?
• 7:45
  And that SpaceX is so nice that they stream it and they show the
• 7:49
  whole process. They allow people like lab Padre
• 7:52
  and other people in that region to actually film it.
• 7:57
  That's insane. That's so cool.
• 7:59
  And that's the difference between space, Sex in a lot of
• 8:02
  their other competition is that they're like, they're just like
• 8:06
  us, they love this stuff. They want to spread the good
• 8:10
  word of space, exploration, and human spaceflight.
• 8:14
  So the best way to do that is to have people film it, like other
• 8:17
  people like us, you know? So if you want to hang out with
• 8:20
  a bunch of other human spaceflight, interested people,
• 8:25
  make sure to subscribe to the channel of course and check that

• 8:30
  launch. On Friday, it's gonna be an
• 8:33
  all-day event. It's going to be great and we
• 8:35
  have some things planned, we're going to have some discussions
