SpaceX Starbase/ Starship Updates Nov 28, 2021 · Elon Musk Podcast

• 0:00
  Hello everybody. Welcome back to the space, news
• 0:05
  pod and live views of SpaceX Starbase.
• 0:12
  Ship 20 booster for. We got happy, we got other
• 0:14
  booster there to pad B is where Starship SN 20 ships, 20, is
• 0:21
  that right now. They have six Raptor engines on
• 0:26
  that thing regular Raptors and R of X.
• 0:30
  And possibly, possibly, we're going to do some more testing
• 0:36
  down at Starbase next week. coming up in the next few days,
• 0:42
  we have some road closures between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.
• 0:47
  November, 29th, 30th and December 1st.
• 0:51
  So, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, SpaceX.
• 0:55
  Maybe doing some more testing Starship possible testing on
• 1:00
  booster or they may be moving some heavy equipment from the
• 1:03
  production facility to the launch facility.
• 1:06
  We're not quite sure exactly what they're going to be doing
• 1:08
  next week, but we're going to be stayed saying tuned and have
• 1:14
  this feed going during those times.
• 1:16
  So we can Of a live feed of that for everybody.
• 1:21
  So Monday from 10 a.m. at central time till 6:00 p.m.
• 1:28
  central Time. So that's a long time, that's
• 1:29
  eight hours of time, but the will be doing something not
• 1:35
  exactly sure what. But they'll be doing something
• 1:38
  down there at Starbase and you never know what they're going to
• 1:40
  be doing. You can kind of get you got kind
• 1:43
  of have a guess, you know what's going on?
• 1:45
  They could be doing pressure tests.
• 1:47
  Could be doing more tests with the launch platform.
• 1:56
  They could be doing you know the olm purge like they did the
• 2:00
  other day that was pretty cool. Could be doing, you know, catch
• 2:06
  arm tests. Mechagodzilla tests.
• 2:10
  And, you know, they have to have a have to get a lot of stuff
• 2:13
  done before they launch. This thing, I mean SpaceX is
• 2:21
  Starship is with full stack as 400 feet tall, it's about 30
• 2:27
  meters around or 30 feet around. So it is absolutely massive and
• 2:33
  they To take their time and do it properly or things.
• 2:37
  Just they're not going to work it.
• 2:40
  Even though Ilan has always said.
• 2:43
  You know will be ready in two weeks that seal on time, that's
• 2:49
  seal on time. We'll be ready to weeks ship,
• 2:51
  will be ready in two weeks. Well, you know, the I think
• 2:55
  he's, you know, when he says those things, he's kind of
• 2:58
  memeing himself and kind of goofing off because The, the two
• 3:04
  weeks thing has been his thing for years.
• 3:08
  Our two months even has been a thing.
• 3:10
  There's two weeks, it's an engineering thing.
• 3:13
  We'll get this done in two weeks and then it takes months to get
• 3:16
  it done, so we'll see. we'll see what's happening, but Yeah, I'm
• 3:25
  the the 8-hour test window is it's a big, big window for
• 3:29
  testing. So they could be doing a bunch
• 3:31
  of stuff. I mean, could they be doing
• 3:32
  another possible static fire of Starship?
• 3:36
  They could. I mean, there's no reason not to
• 3:41
  other than it takes time away from them building other things
• 3:45
  because they've already had a full.
• 3:46
  Static fire a successful static fire test.
• 3:51
  Felix is here. Yeah, I saw that.
• 3:53
  The what about a crew was here? That's pretty awesome.
• 3:55
  You did a live stream I think was earlier today, right?
• 4:00
  The beautiful day today, too. It's like 60, some degrees
• 4:05
  today, 66 right now. So yeah, what a beautiful day to
• 4:11
  be down there. I still have to heal up, my
• 4:14
  ankle, still messed up a little bit, but it's getting better
• 4:16
  every day and luckily, you know, luckily, I'm in a good spot
• 4:23
  where I can wear, I can take care of myself and Continue
• 4:30
  doing this from my home which is really nice, but I really want
• 4:34
  to get back down to Starbase so, and I'm only like, 30 minutes,
• 4:37
  30 35 minutes from there. So, you know, not too far.
• 4:42
  But the bad thing is, it's my right ankle, and my right ankle
• 4:46
  is my gas and brake ankle, you know?
• 4:52
  So it's like, well, that's not cool.
• 4:55
  I can't drive down to Starbase and it's fine.
• 4:57
  Like, I'm okay. Just being here right now.
• 4:58
  Doing this for a while. Because this is what I is what I
• 5:00
  was doing for years. So I'm totally cool with that
• 5:03
  even though I'm in Brownsville and I'm close by SpaceX and
• 5:06
  Starbase will be there when I when I get back to healthy and I
• 5:10
  have to be as healthy as possible.
• 5:12
  I can't push it because then you impede your healing for whatever
• 5:18
  weeks. Possibly a month another month.
• 5:20
  And that's not good. So The.
• 5:26
  Just got to take it easy, man. That's pretty much it at this
• 5:29
  point. Nothing wrong scented goal even
• 5:31
  though, you know, it's not possible.
• 5:32
  Trying is where it all starts. Yeah, exactly.
• 5:35
  You gotta go for it. That's why I moved down here.
• 5:39
  that's why I moved to Brownsville because, man, You
• 5:45
  got you got to set your goals high and you got to just you
• 5:48
  gotta go for it if you don't set those goals and if you don't set
• 5:53
  yourself up for Success there's no success in your future.
• 5:57
  So that's why when I was doing this up in New York and I was
• 6:02
  doing something similar to this and I was doing the daily
• 6:04
  Show's, that's cool. But of course, I always want
• 6:08
  more. Is your ankle in a cast?
• 6:10
  No, Michael. It's not.
• 6:13
  It is, it's healing up though. It's going up, it was an acute
• 6:16
  sprain. So sometimes accused sprains
• 6:19
  take months to heal and luckily, you know, I'm a bit about the
• 6:22
  one month range right now, So it it's it it's getting better
• 6:27
  every day. So it's just been wrapped up,
• 6:33
  you know, compression ice elevation, all that normal stuff
• 6:37
  rested up, don't walk on it, kind of thing I got crutches so
• 6:41
  I can hobble around my house. I got a cane so, Hope you're
• 6:49
  happy and Brownsville. Kevin keep up the great work.
• 6:52
  Thank you so much, I appreciate that.
• 6:53
  Yeah, I am happy here. I think it's cool here.
• 6:59
  It's a great little town, man. It's a great little town.
• 7:02
  So, where I came from in New York, there was literally
• 7:05
  nothing. I was out in the middle of
• 7:06
  nowhere. Sound the middle of a state
• 7:09
  forest, basically. Beauty.
• 7:12
  Absolutely beautiful. It's about up there.
• 7:15
  Rolling Hills trees, valleys Wildlife streams lakes, rivers.
• 7:23
  You know, all the, all the stuff that you see in.
• 7:28
  You know, like a Rockwell painting or something.
• 7:32
  That's where I lived. Those little cabins and others
• 7:35
  ski resort stuff like that. and, Then moving down to here.
• 7:44
  It was a big change. It is flat, it's flat with like
• 7:47
  sand everywhere, there's palm trees, it is beautiful.
• 7:52
  So, I'm happy. I'm happy.
• 7:56
  One hand on the camera and one of the crutch, right.
• 7:59
  Yeah, that's what I get. I mean I could use the tripod.
• 8:02
  The tripod is pretty steady. Maybe I could use that as my get
• 8:05
  as lean on it. Where's this camera located?
• 8:09
  This is the Sapphire Hotel on the island.
• 8:16
  Just about five and a half miles away, we also have the wide cam.
• 8:22
  Which is this one right here. But shows the whole facility.
• 8:33

  Totally fine because I don't have a lot of, like, I don't
• 10:55
  have a lot of Space to go to, you know, like I just have my
• 11:01
  little apartment here. I really do appreciate though.
• 11:05
  That's awesome. Yellowstone's on volcano, watch
• 11:08
  really. Oh that's not good.
• 11:12
  Is that a gigantic? It's not a gigantic volcano at
• 11:19
  Yellowstone. I'm not very familiar with
• 11:29
  Yellowstone's volcano status at this point.
• 11:37
  Yellowstone's, huge though, right?
• 11:40
  Isn't it like, is it like a couple of States big?
• 11:46
  I've never I think I went to Yellowstone when I was a
• 11:48
  teenager. Yeah, I think I did.
• 12:02
  Thanks was over by the tank farm, he's at the beach now with
• 12:05
  wife and kids. The cool thing is the tank farm.
• 12:07
  You see the tank farm on the left side, you literally just
• 12:11
  drive like half a mile down the road.
• 12:15
  In your at the beach. Like literally, this is the
• 12:18
  coolest thing ever. Like when I saw the first time I
• 12:20
  went to Starbase and every time I go there I'm just like what is
• 12:23
  what is going on here? So you drive past, you see the
• 12:29
  the tank farm on the left there? He does keep driving past that
• 12:34
  and the beach is literally like half a mile down the road.
• 12:40
  You can't, you shouldn't drive on the beach.
• 12:44
  Mainly because if you get stuck, it's a pain to get you out.
• 12:48
  And if you don't have the right kind of vehicle then freak out
• 12:54
  of tires Etc. Then you're going to get stuck.
• 12:56
  I've seen three or four trucks. Get stuck on the beach like in
• 13:00
  the sand and they kind of just look around and they're like I'd
• 13:05
  help one guy actually him and his buddy were coming down for
• 13:08
  spring break or some break spring break fall break and they
• 13:16
  were, they brought their bikes and they were going to go to the
• 13:18
  beach and it was going to be like, one of their best like fun
• 13:21
  times. I could see it.
• 13:22
  I could hear them because they were, they were near me at the
• 13:27
  At the production facility up the road and I was filming and
• 13:29
  they were talking across the street about what they're going
• 13:32
  to be doing. And like how about you know how
• 13:34
  many places are going to go to party and all this stuff like oh
• 13:37
  yeah we're gonna go down to the beach because we just saw this
• 13:39
  and then they headed down to the beach.
• 13:42
  I came down here to the launch site and I drove down to the
• 13:45
  beach because I was going to get a shot from the beach of
• 13:47
  Starship. And those guys drove past me.
• 13:53
  Drove it like and I'm not laughing because it's funny.
• 13:59
  I'm laughing because it is the most absurd thing you could do.
• 14:03
  When you go to the when you go to the beach in there's a bunch
• 14:05
  of sand around is like the biggest mistake you can make is
• 14:09
  drive into deep sand. So these guys just like head for
• 14:16
  like blasted into the deepest and with there's tire tracks and
• 14:21
  everything and they just got stuck like almost immediately.
• 14:25
  The front of their truck got in in barely the back tires, got in
• 14:29
  and they are just completely stuck.
• 14:32
  So the beach is a, it's, it's absolutely beautiful.
• 14:36
  There's miles of beaches, like you get his walk for miles and
• 14:40
  they're barely anybody there ever.
• 14:42
  It's I think I love it there. So, So, yeah, hopefully, Felix
• 14:50
  didn't get stuck in the sand. That's all I'm saying.
• 14:53
  I'm sure he's fine though. Super volcano.
• 14:58
  Okay, we don't want you. Also do a rupt would be
• 15:00
  devastating for most of the u.s. That is not good.
• 15:03
  Yeah. Is it true that China is
• 15:07
  launching at least two rockets a week?
• 15:10
  They are launching a lot of rockets.
• 15:19
  And they do have some upcoming launches.
• 15:22
  Let me see if I can find those for you.
• 15:23
  There's a soyuz going up soon. Arianespace.
• 15:26
  Couple soyuz going up. There's a falcon 9 December 9th.
• 15:30
  Actually the I-X PE the Imaging x-ray.
• 15:35
  Polo polarimetry Explorer going up from Kennedy, Space Center.
• 15:43
  There's a new Shepherd launch coming up to for blue origin.
• 15:48
  So, these are those are some new ones coming up from Other
• 15:58
  providers. But yeah, they're launching a
• 16:02
  bunch of rockets and thing is they don't really announce them
• 16:05
  that much. So yeah, it's a It's a, it's
• 16:13
  kind of, it's almost difficult to get to them.
• 16:17
  To see them. But there are a bunch.
• 16:37
  There's one coming up in a December 6th.
• 16:41
  For China. There is another one.
• 16:45
  Let's see at the park when the Space Center satellite launch
• 16:49
  Center in China. There's another one coming up.
• 16:53
  I think it's a little bit later this year.
• 16:57
  Yeah, there's one in another one.
• 16:58
  December 22nd Long, March 7, a December 22nd at 10:30 UTC and
• 17:07
  then there's another one in Des, another one in December.
• 17:12
  And a possible, one more in December so they're launching a
• 17:16
  bunch like maybe four launches by the end of this year.
• 17:24
  China is building the space station and then making their
• 17:27
  move to lunar. I think so too.
• 17:29
  And then they'll make the move to Mars.
• 17:33
  And he's are moving, very fast. Yeah, and it's, you know, I
• 17:37
  think it's great to have competition.
• 17:45
  Who's going to get to Mars, first, that's the thing who gets
• 17:48
  to Mars first because we can get back to the Moon, you know, the
• 17:52
  next couple years, China's just going to go crazy and launched
• 17:56
  everybody to the Moon. It seems like they're they're
• 17:58
  heading towards just going rapid-fire Pace as fast as
• 18:05
  possible building these rockets that are not building a rocket
• 18:09
  but building a space station, I should say that's going to house
• 18:14
  a bunch of people. Oh and then they get the
• 18:16
  information from that of course. And of course NASA shares all
• 18:19
  their information as well but getting their own information
• 18:24
  from their own space station is super important, especially if
• 18:29
  they gonna be sending people to the Moon, what if they have a
• 18:33
  moon base? We have a moon base, you know,
• 18:36
  is a competition or domination. I don't know.
• 18:38
  That's the other thing. We did the same thing with
• 18:41
  Russia, right? Was that competition, or was
• 18:43
  that domination? Do we need to dominate?
• 18:49
  Do we need to dominate space? We need to dominate the moon in
• 18:53
  order to be more effective. I mean, we did, we did the moon
• 18:57
  landings for military purposes, Department of Defense stuff Is
• 19:02
  it a threat? Oh this.
• 19:03
  That's the other thing. Is that a threat?
• 19:05
  We don't know. So far, we haven't seen anything
• 19:08
  as far as a threat goes is is far.
• 19:10
  As I know, I haven't seen anything.
• 19:12
  That would be considered a threat from China.
• 19:15
  Other than that they're building at a rapid pace.
• 19:20
  Think China's space program will cause Congress to up the
• 19:23
  funding. That's possible, John totally
• 19:25
  possible. I mean, fear is the biggest for
• 19:33
  aggressor, you know, when you when you show somebody that
• 19:38
  another Another country is going to be better than you.
• 19:44
  Then. Like we can't be beat like,
• 19:48
  that's some like, you know, you think about it.
• 19:50
  It's super competitive. We don't want them to have The
• 19:53
  High Ground. We don't want anybody to have
• 19:55
  The High Ground and I'm talking as a US citizen here.
• 19:57
  You don't want anybody to have The High Ground in no more than
• 20:01
  you do. And have the ability to do
• 20:06
  things that you can't do this in your behind.
• 20:09
  So, Competition. Sure, but also you know is it a
• 20:17
  threat possible? China steals for and Tech and
• 20:32
  use it as its own. Yeah, they've been known to do
• 20:34
  that. They have been done it.
• 20:36
  You can't do anything about it, you know, we have no sanctions,
• 20:39
  you know, that'll stop them from doing things like that, they're
• 20:43
  making a falcon 9. Clone so to speak.
• 20:48
  See them try that. And maybe they'll get it done.
• 20:52
  I don't know it's possible. But also, what is the advantage
• 21:30
  of having a Propelled landing on a vehicle like that.
• 21:46
  Save a bunch of money per launch.
• 21:49
  I mean do they do? They care that much about it?
• 21:52
  I'm not sure. So we'll see what they do in the
• 22:05
  next year or so think they're going to be making a lot of
• 22:08
  progress on their space station. Asimo progress on a moon
• 22:16
  landing. if they get to the moon before, the u.s. gets back to
• 22:22
  the Moon Congress is going to Up NASA's game, there's no way I
• 22:30
  wouldn't give it more funding. and especially by this point,
• 22:36
  NASA should be using that as a kind of a Talking point.
• 22:42
  Okay, you want to get the moon, we need more money.
• 22:48
  Do you want to see it to move faster?
• 22:49
  We need to build more stuff. Can you see elon's influence in
• 22:53
  Brownsville and how does the community react?
• 22:56
  Kevin? That's an amazing question.
• 23:00
  Yes. So, The answer to your question
• 23:04
  is I can see I can see its influence.
• 23:11
  I've only been here a short time though.
• 23:13
  So I can just tell you what I know, As far as I know, most
• 23:19
  people are okay with it with Elon and SpaceX and everything.
• 23:25
  A lot of people that I met In regular just a normal day life
• 23:30
  when you go to the store or whatever. you know, you talk to
• 23:34
  the talk, the checkout person and they, you know, cat
• 23:40
  conversation. you know, they'll we'll talk about whatever, you
• 23:50
  know, how are you doing today? And you know what's going on or
• 23:54
  whatever and Most people that I've talked to have been really
• 24:02
  kind of either so it's cool. What he's doing, you know what
• 24:05
  they're doing down there Starbase or they have no clue
• 24:07
  what's going on. Literally they have no clue
• 24:12
  what's going on. And yeah it's weird knowing like
• 24:21
  me being such a big fan of space flight and then talking to
• 24:25
  people who have absolutely no idea that they're building
• 24:27
  Rockets down there. Like there was I went to get a
• 24:32
  hot spot so I could stream from Starbase.
• 24:34
  This is a great example 1282 get a hot spot and the person that
• 24:40
  was checking me out she said She said, oh yeah, you know, like
• 24:46
  are you going to use this in your home?
• 24:47
  And I was like, well, I got to ask you actually like, what's
• 24:50
  the coverage down in Boca Chica Beach and that area because I'm
• 24:54
  going to be straight live streaming from Starbase is
• 24:57
  SpaceX. And I would like to know the
• 24:59
  coverage and do you have like a legit coverage map?
• 25:02
  Not like you know something that the corporate puts out in like
• 25:07
  makes it seem cooler, you know we make you see better, she's
• 25:10
  like oh yeah we do totally. Let me bring that up for you and
• 25:13
  she's like your Street Live. Dreaming from SpaceX and I was
• 25:16
  like, oh yeah, you know. Yes, what I'm going to be doing
• 25:18
  this with, or what? I'm going to be doing with this.
• 25:21
  She said, oh cool, I haven't been down there yet.
• 25:25
  I was like, really okay. I was like, so you should
• 25:32
  definitely go down there. It's amazing.
• 25:35
  You get to see these rockets at their building and I was like
• 25:38
  and if you have kids, this is one of the best things you can
• 25:41
  do. For them is to bring them down
• 25:42
  there because this is literally they're literally building
• 25:45
  rockets that are going to send people to Mars.
• 25:47
  And you'll be one of the first people to see these rockets and
• 25:51
  she was like, whoa, like mind blown.
• 25:55
  She's like I'm gonna go this weekend.
• 25:59
  Because I didn't even know they were doing that down there.
• 26:00
  I thought they were just building like missiles and
• 26:02
  stuff. I was like, nope.
• 26:03
  They're building literally rockets that are going to send
• 26:05
  people across the solar system, and she was like, that's crazy.
• 26:10
  Okay, I gotta go. So she's going to pack up her,
• 26:13
  she was gonna pack of her family and go that weekend.
• 26:15
  So I thought that was kind of neat that as much as I'm into
• 26:19
  this stuff like normal everyday, people don't know anything
• 26:24
  that's going on with the Starship thing and they live, 20
• 26:28
  minutes. That's away, you know, they're
• 26:29
  20 minutes, 30 minutes away from this.
• 26:31
  It's like knowing that NASA exists when you live in Orlando,
• 26:35
  you know, old Norland is a little bit farther away, but you
• 26:38
  know, if you're in Orlando and you're like, oh NASA, builds
• 26:41
  Rockets here. That's weird.
• 26:47
  Yeah it's kind of a it's kind of a weird thing but that again
• 26:49
  space you know starships and experimental program and it's
• 26:53
  not very good, not very public, you know.
• 26:56
  But there are there signs in Brownsville that, you know, say
• 27:01
  come live in Brownsville the future home of martians or
• 27:05
  something like that. So I've seen those that it, so
• 27:09
  that shows that the city's behind it.
• 27:13
  I know the mayor has talked a bunch about SpaceX and he'll on
• 27:17
  how much money he's brought in as far as As far as taxes and
• 27:25
  all that goes very, very excited about it.
• 27:28
  Tell her that SpaceX Starbase Boca Chica, is not an amusement
• 27:32
  park. Oh, I did, I totally did.
• 27:33
  I explained everything to her, you know, where you got a park
• 27:38
  and don't go into the facility? I was like, it's a private
• 27:41
  facility. So you could drive by park
• 27:43
  across the street, don't use the porta potty, you know, that
• 27:46
  whole thing. Don't get in the way.
• 27:50
  It's a legit and I told her it's a legit construction facility.
• 27:53
  So be careful. But, you know, it's it really
• 27:59
  isn't not even close to an amusement park.
• 28:03
  Seems impossible, dude. Paul, when I, when I heard her
• 28:06
  say that she was like I was I almost was like, what?
• 28:11
  That, and then I realized that not everybody cares about the
• 28:16
  same stuff we care about So, it's kind of its kind of crazy.
• 28:25
  Unknown are great except for retired.
• 28:27
  Folks, who can't pay property, tax, property tax, should be
• 28:31
  illegal. It means we're just renting, you
• 28:33
  don't own the land. Wait, what?
• 28:43
  I'm confused. It's amazing that the era of
• 28:49
  information, boast people seem less informed sometimes but also
• 28:53
  some people, some people aren't interested in the same things
• 28:57
  could be like me, not knowing anything about anime.
• 29:01
  Like I don't know anything about anime.
• 29:03
  I've never, I've never had an interest in it, you know, and
• 29:07
  never really sparked my interest.
• 29:09
  So some people are just not into things but it seems like
• 29:11
  sometimes people you know, there's also so many hours in a
• 29:18
  day and so many minutes a day, you can research things So I I'm
• 29:23
  one of those people that is you know I'm just going to focus on
• 29:25
  things that I like everything else.
• 29:28
  Cool you know do your thing. But I might not be the most
• 29:33
  interested in it so I might not take my time to do it.
• 29:36
  So I get that though. most homes in Boca Chica, rented not owned
• 29:44
  Yeah, I'm not sure about that stat.
• 29:45
  I live I'm renting right now so I don't know.
• 29:49
  No house here. I like my place.
• 29:53
  It's cool. I enjoy it.
• 29:56
  And Raymond. I got your message, but I'm all
• 29:58
  taken care of. Thank you.
• 30:00
  I appreciate it though. With the ankle thing.
• 30:08
  Everyone knows who Elon is and also know about Falcon 9 but not
• 30:12
  many know about Starship or Starbase.
• 30:14
  Yeah. Kevin.
• 30:14
  It's a, it's a sort of a. So there's the broader broader
• 30:19
  thing of space exploration. That people are like ooh neat.
• 30:24
  We're going to have it eclipse. You know, and that makes the
• 30:27
  news, right? So, you know, something's a
• 30:31
  Celestial event like that in eclipse.
• 30:36
  Everybody can see the moon, everyone can see the sun.
• 30:41
  That's cool. But you see a rocket launch in
• 30:44
  real life. You have to go to Florida, you
• 30:47
  have to go to California. You have to go possibly now to
• 30:52
  Texas at Starbase So you have to travel to those things.
• 30:58
  They don't really make the news because it's nothing really new.
• 31:03
  You know, when Falcon 9 took Bob and Doug up to the space
• 31:06
  station, that was a big deal. because we're finally getting
• 31:10
  ourselves off, Russian Rockets, but the Other than that, people
• 31:17
  are kind of like their kind of desensitized to that kind of
• 31:20
  stuff to Rocket flights. That's what it seems like, but
• 31:24
  if, if there's an asteroid that's going to be between the
• 31:27
  moon in the Earth or something like that, you know, meteor
• 31:31
  something, anything that's in the sky, that might look
• 31:34
  different. People are interested in that.
• 31:39
  But he take them, take them down.
• 31:42
  This Rabbit Hole of like do you know what a falcon 9 is and
• 31:44
  they're like, no idea. It's like, all right.
• 31:47
  Well, that's the rocket that sent Bob and Doug up.
• 31:49
  Remember Bob and Doug and are like who and then you say, oh,
• 31:54
  that rocket, that sent the astronauts back to the space
• 31:57
  station from us soil on a US rocket with us.
• 32:00
  Astronauts, they might know that, you know, then you say
• 32:06
  yeah, that's the rocket that sent them there.
• 32:08
  The like, oh, okay, but they won't know what a couple like
• 32:12
  two stage rocket is. They won't know what a crew
• 32:15
  capsule is or what a crew dragon is.
• 32:26
  So something like Starship and Starbase only really hardcore
• 32:30
  nerds like us really care. When Starship starts flying, I
• 32:37
  can Envision Starship launch from Starbase.
• 32:40
  Yeah, Kennedy and Vibe. Yeah, I agree with you.
• 32:43
  I don't know if Fab has the facilities yet.
• 32:51
  But they, they, I don't know. I don't know if they're really
• 32:54
  built up, but I could see it eventually.
• 32:56
  Yeah. But Kennedy, Kennedy Space
• 33:00
  Center. Totally
• 33:11
  85 million on a Russian rocket per seat per is 50 million.
• 33:15
  Personal Falcon Falcon. Yeah, super cheap in comparison.
• 33:21
  So yeah, of course, like it's amazing.
• 33:24
  How, how many people still Still, there's people that are
• 33:28
  on, it's kind of weird because you can pick your kind of pick
• 33:32
  your team still with these, with launches and things.
• 33:37
  People are still haters for SpaceX out there and what
• 33:41
  they've done. You know there's other
• 33:45
  flash-in-the-pan they've only been around 10 years Boeing has
• 33:48
  been around since Etc. You know it's like well yeah we
• 33:53
  know we know that they've only been here for ten years but know
• 33:55
  how much they've shaken up the whole industry.
• 33:59
  That's has to say something about him.
• 34:03
  Haters Gonna Hate, right? So I think it's funny that the
• 34:07
  people actually take sides about these things and as opposed to
• 34:10
  just being an overall space flight, enjoyer.
• 34:15
  You know, that would be. That would make more sense.
• 34:18
  That's how I do it, too. I love SpaceX and I kind of
• 34:23
  steer towards SpaceX because it seems like they're making the
• 34:25
  most progress and doing the most Innovative things.
• 34:32
  And that's always exciting, but I'm also a fan of all space.
• 34:35
  Flight Lisa, thanks for subscribing.
• 34:38
  Lisa Hanley, thank you so much. Did you get to keep the seat?
• 34:48
  That would be awesome, wouldn't it?
• 34:50
  That'd be really cool. It's like, you get, you know,
• 34:53
  you pay for your seat on this flight and then we get to, I
• 34:56
  don't know if you get to keep the, you probably get to keep
• 34:58
  this suit I'm assuming Maybe not though because, you know, these
• 35:05
  flights are, might be a have to look into that.
• 35:09
  You get to keep your space suit. Let's doctor Proctor.
• 35:14
  Doctor Proctor's pretty good on Twitter about this stuff, that's
• 35:17
  that's ask you right now. Proctor dr.
• 35:23
  Proctor like to Sian Proctor. Let's tweet it.
• 35:29
  Real quick. Back to side Proctor quick
• 35:33
  question. Did you get to keep your space
• 35:38
  suit? would be cool to just like, Make
• 35:48
  dinner, make dinner Lodge around the house.
• 35:55
  House and like walk the dog. In it, while wearing it.
• 36:04
  There you go, it. So here goes there, tweet to dr.
• 36:07
  Proctor will see if she answers quick question, did you get to
• 36:10
  keep your space suit? Would be cool to just like make
• 36:14
  dinner lounge around the house and walk the dog while wearing
• 36:17
  it. There we go.
• 36:21
  Sent. Let's see if she answers,
• 36:23
  they'll be amazing. There's a little bit of thing,
• 36:58
  guys. T FR has been issued for
• 37:05
  Starbase. Space operations for December
• 37:16
  1st, through December 31st. Okay, so this is a renewal I was
• 37:20
  just I just got an alert about that.
• 37:32
  Let's see. November 30th through December
• 37:35
  31st. So it's just, it's a whole month
• 37:37
  of space operations, so it's just for the Starbase area,
• 37:41
  okay? I heard that the you suits are
• 37:47
  used for training new crew. Oh that makes method makes sense
• 37:51
  out. They all custom fit though.
• 37:57
  So basic Starship, Just a shell and just an orbital orbit
• 38:01
  capability custom boxes. One of the for SLS engines, they
• 38:04
  use for their booster. Basically yeah, Starship is
• 38:09
  cheap. This is as far as.
• 38:23
  You know, as far as spaceflight go start, Starship is going to
• 38:25
  be ridiculously cheap TFR. Must mean a boost static test?
• 38:30
  Yeah, possibly because it's, it's there.
• 38:34
  So the next couple days are going to be insanely, cool.
• 38:37
  Hopefully, it works out, I mean, it's from November 30th through
• 38:40
  December 31st. So it's a it's a big range.
• 38:45
  So, It's possibility that you know it's just starts December
• 38:51
  31st or just issued this November 27th and starts
• 38:56
  December 1st. Through the 31st of December
• 39:01
  altitude is 10,000 feet. so, Yeah, should be should be
• 39:09
  interesting to see what happens in the next couple days.
• 39:11
  And then, because the road closures are coming up but also
• 39:16
  the whole month of December, they have to do these tests
• 39:18
  anyway, because FAA is going to be ready to roll December 31st.
• 39:31
  I guess he not making you a suit until you pass training.
• 39:36
  I mean, yeah, I mean, I could see.
• 39:39
  It depends on the depends on the flight as well, because NASA's,
• 39:45
  okay, with with paying, for a space suit for, for training,
• 39:49
  and for flight, but I'm sure they have a training suit and I
• 39:53
  have a flight suit. Probably a different suit.
• 39:57
  It's good question though. Thomas Garner, hit me up with
• 40:08
  the Hit me up with that TFR. Thanks Thomas.
• 40:35
  It's Starship. Large enough to hold the Hubble.
• 40:38
  It is. I don't know exactly if it can
• 40:42
  fit, perfect. I think I can fit in there.
• 40:53
  Let me see how big the Starship hearing is just to see.
• 40:59
  To make sure I believe it is, but we'll see.
• 41:04
  Payload volume height. Is 59 feet.
• 41:11
  And 30 feet. Diameter size of Hubble.
• 41:17
  I mean yeah I think it'll be pretty sure it has a lot of 43
• 41:23
  feet long and it was pretty long and 14 feet diameter.
• 41:28
  Yeah so it'll fit I thought it was like 50 something feet but
• 41:32
  it's 43, feet long. See ya.
• 41:36
  So it'll fit, we have about 16 feet, ish, length, and 15 ish
• 41:48
  feet diameter. So yeah.
• 41:53
  Will SpaceX make an Eva suit. They've talked about it.
• 41:56
  You'll on said, he'd be happy to look into it so it's possible.
• 41:59
  They do in the future. So, there's a possibility. as a
• 42:10
  probability that You know, NASA contracts them to do some space
• 42:17
  suits movie A suits. In the future.
• 42:24
  Moon suits. How cool would it be?
• 42:27
  If you're I mean this is this is another thing to if you if you
• 42:33
  have astronauts going to the Moon the whole SLS thing, the
• 42:40
  whole Artemis program, the hole Docking with the moon station
• 42:47
  and then going down to the surface on a Starship, wouldn't
• 42:50
  you want your spaceship suit? Your spacesuit to integrate with
• 42:54
  your Starship because that's the suit you're going to be wearing
• 42:58
  while you're on the moon. So you want that suit to
• 43:02
  completely integrate with your Starship.
• 43:05
  I'm assuming that's what they want.
• 43:09
  So possibly, I mean, it's totally possible.
• 43:16
  That SpaceX builds the next suits.
• 43:32
  Nothing from Doctor practice yet.
• 43:35
  Excuse me. So, the T fr.
• 43:50
  For Brownsville Texas, temporary restriction.
• 43:53
  It's a first and 0001 UTC to December, 31st from the surface
• 43:57
  up to and including 10,000 feet MSL.
• 44:00
  This is not a flight test. This is for ground test events
• 44:04
  only So, this is for the next month.
• 44:09
  Yeah, Ground events only This is a no flight zone.
• 44:19
  Through like a basic TFR. So yeah, pretty cool.
• 44:35
  Pretty cool. That it's a monthly renewal of
• 44:37
  SpaceX is standing T FR, which covers all ground test events.
• 44:41
  This is not a flight to fr so it's not, you know, it's
• 44:51
  basically Guarantees SpaceX that they can do tests on the ground.
• 45:08
  But not so bulky. As NASA, presently approved.
• 45:10
  Yeah, the NASA seats are big. I mean, they can't I mean I
• 45:14
  don't know if they have to be that big but they're pretty big.
• 45:18
  They're quite large, Vanessa doesn't have SpaceX build suits.
• 45:21
  It's in their interest to make their own Eva suits.
• 45:23
  I agree. John, I totally agree.
• 45:25
  I think they should if they can get them approved by NASA and
• 45:30
  the governing bodies then. Yes, I think they could use
• 45:32
  them. Hello from Tampa, Florida.
• 45:36
  Hello from Brownsville Texas. Starbase Studio B.
• 45:42
  But I expect a mini probe that can operate with his own arms to
• 45:44
  take over primary Viva, which were spaced at UVA is great last
• 45:48
  option. It shouldn't be the first
• 45:50
  choice. Yeah, I so I'm a big proponent
• 45:55
  of robots. I love robots.
• 45:58
  I think it's a really cool idea to send robots.
• 46:01
  The planets, really cool idea to send robots to Mars to the Moon,
• 46:06
  Etc. I think that's I think that's
• 46:10
  our first choice. No possibility of orbital test
• 46:15
  until EPA closes. Yeah.
• 46:17
  Rocky, you're right. You are exactly right.
• 46:19
  There's not going to be any orbital, no flight tests until
• 46:22
  next year, Yeah, I'm a huge proponent of robots of Mex,
• 46:29
  whatever you want to call them. But I also think that, you know,
• 46:34
  how long does it take for a robot to pick up a rock and look
• 46:36
  at? It could take weeks for a robot
• 46:40
  to do that? And if you're a person, you just
• 46:45
  kind of bend over, pick it up, look at it go.
• 46:48
  Huh, this is cool. Put it in your bag.
• 46:50
  Take it back for verification. Check it out.
• 46:59
  Pretty cool. Remember NASA experiment with
• 47:06
  robots in the ISS, Michael, I saw a thing the other day, you
• 47:10
  know, it's not a Netflix documentary about robots and AI.
• 47:16
  About that same thing and I remember you know I've seen them
• 47:21
  in the past as well, but there are robots on the you know they
• 47:26
  were have been robots on the ISS and it's super cool.
• 47:30
  You know, you have your little buddy, you know, they have a
• 47:32
  little face they talk to you. And there was a really sad
• 47:37
  moment, but I can't remember which astronaut it was.
• 47:41
  But the They asked the astronaut.
• 47:47
  What's the? What's the what you going to
• 47:54
  miss the? Most of the ISS?
• 47:56
  And the astronauts said they're going to miss the robot, the
• 48:00
  they miss leaving. They're going to feel bad
• 48:03
  leaving their the robot up in space and I was like, like so I
• 48:09
  was like, oh my God, I got emotional.
• 48:11
  It was like 2:00 in the morning when I was watching this thing.
• 48:12
  I was like that is the saddest thing I've ever heard.
• 48:20
  Leave your little robot, buddy in space.
• 48:21
  You'll never see him again. That's sad.
• 48:26
  I would laugh though. Like I was like that is the
• 48:29
  saddest cutest thing we can be on mars or the moon and control
• 48:34
  robots from safety of the capsule from orbit.
• 48:36
  They never have to land. Yeah jet.
• 48:39
  Exactly. That's another thing we can
• 48:41
  control the robots from like, really close by Which is great.
• 48:48
  We could also have a base there. You know, we can have a base on
• 48:53
  mars or the moon and we could control robots from inside that
• 48:56
  base. So the robot could bring it
• 48:59
  back, like, they could go pick up a rock, put it in its
• 49:02
  container bring it back to the base.
• 49:04
  They could be facilities in the base where we could check out
• 49:07
  the rock. See what its composition is and
• 49:10
  then send the robot back out to do more work while you're
• 49:12
  examining it. Ever met ocean Camp guy, he's
• 49:17
  something else, Kevin, I've driven past him, I've driven
• 49:22
  past him once or twice and he's I'm always going.
• 49:27
  It seems like he's always going someplace or coming someplace
• 49:31
  and I'm always going the opposite way.
• 49:33
  So I haven't stopped to talk to Paul yet.
• 49:36
  But I've seen him down there. I've only been down here for
• 49:39
  about a month and a half, two months about two months now.
• 49:42
  So Yeah, I'm sure I'll run into him.
• 49:49
  Same with Jessica Kirsch, I'll meet up with Jessica.
• 49:53
  Some point, we have plans to meet up and hang out at Starbase
• 49:55
  and chat and stuff. So, Go hang out with her.
• 49:59
  She's cool. Her her channel is really cool.
• 50:02
  So Yeah, go check her out. She does a lot of live streams.
• 50:06
  If you're feeding for a live stream that's has an actual
• 50:09
  host, not just robots, then Jessica's probably my favorite.
• 50:16
  Talking about must never linked to a semi autonomous robot.
• 50:21
  I would be cool. So fun, how you doing?
• 50:30
  Guys, I got to leave in a couple minutes here but I appreciate
• 50:32
  you stopping by swinging by and hanging out.
• 50:36
  Look at that. The Sun is setting down here in
• 50:38
  Brownsville at Boca Chica. Setting soon.
• 50:42
  I should say Sun's going down though.
• 50:46
  It gets dark pretty early here. Welcome to Winter.
• 50:57
  And JB's, afraid of aliens, Jeff who speaks will have their own
• 51:01
  suits. Just one suit because of 50
• 51:03
  times more than their own and force Reliance on outside
• 51:07
  vendors. The spies do to complexity.
• 51:09
  Yeah, it outside vendors for SpaceX is the worst option
• 51:15
  because everything should be integrated.
• 51:18
  It's like having an Apple phone, you know, it's like having a
• 51:21
  phone with its own ecosystem. It makes sense.
• 51:25
  You know, why would you rely on an outside vendor?
• 51:29
  To design different parts of your phone.
• 51:34
  I know they do, you know, the internals of course, are built
• 51:36
  by other companies but it's all built and designed by Apple and
• 51:42
  what place, like just like SpaceX.
• 51:44
  They'll SpaceX would build all the things, but it's easier to
• 51:47
  manufacture everything in-house plus, they already manufacture
• 51:50
  their own suits so they have the facilities there to start with
• 51:55
  So they could do it themselves. I guess.
• 51:56
  The Apple thing was a really bad example.
• 52:01
  I think that back. It'd be dark in another hour.
• 52:05
  Yeah. How long do you think the
• 52:09
  orbital launch Mount to be complete?
• 52:11
  I'm not sure. Hopefully by the end of this
• 52:14
  month, hopefully by the end of December, I should say.
• 52:19
  Because I know they'll be ready for.
• 52:24
  Ready for flight. When the FAA says go go.
• 52:31
  Go because right now it looks like ship 20 is ready booster
• 52:36
  for With its 29. Raptors.
• 52:41
  Looks pretty like looking looking really good and really
• 52:44
  good shape booster 5. Stacked up.
• 52:53
  The Raptors that we know of yet on their ship 21 is in the mid
• 52:57
  Bay few more parts left to go on that.
• 53:00
  So You know, once ship 20 sales booster 5 and ship 21 should be
• 53:07
  should be just plop it on the spots.
• 53:11
  Test it out, booster six and seven are also pretty, you know,
• 53:18
  they're they're getting built booster.
• 53:20
  Six has, you know, a couple parts on it already, couple
• 53:25
  couple stacks there. Ship, 22 is still, you know,
• 53:29
  being built to in the mid Bay. So ship, 21 still needs its
• 53:36
  bottom flaps and a piece near the nose that sure what the ring
• 53:40
  is called, but it needs that it needs its skirt as well, so
• 53:44
  except only ones pretty close. Oh, LM, it's getting there.
• 53:50
  So, I'm guessing. I'm guessing by the end of this
• 53:56
  month or well then we'll be pretty close or the end of
• 53:59
  December. Sorry.
• 54:04
  Must contract, the Hollywood designer of Marvel DC superhero
• 54:07
  suits for the Draco suits. Yeah, and they look awesome.
• 54:19
  Don't forget the Spacek has to coordinate repairs from their
• 54:22
  own mission control, Houston isn't involved.
• 54:25
  Yeah, that's the big one, right? Something happens, sharing of
• 54:31
  ideas is always a good thing. Sharing of information as always
• 54:37
  a good thing. But if you have the engineers
• 54:39
  that built the things Bob, I'm just leaving in a couple minutes
• 54:43
  here so you got here. Nice welcome, welcome!
• 54:47
  Welcome. So if I love the idea of sharing
• 54:51
  of sharing of information of course, share it with NASA.
• 54:54
  Share with everybody involved with the project but also have
• 54:58
  your engineers. If your SpaceX work on your
• 55:00
  suits, if something happens. Because if, you know, if you
• 55:09
  know a part inside out it's like, giving somebody like, I'm
• 55:11
  a coder. So if somebody gives me a code,
• 55:14
  gives me a bunch of code, that's not commented.
• 55:16
  I don't know where to look. I know where to look, where any,
• 55:19
  what anything is. So, knowing the SpaceX works You
• 55:25
  know, in-house for all these things, super important for them
• 55:29
  to continue to do that. I reckon SpaceX is secretly
• 55:42
  developing an Eva suit? Yeah, it's possible.
• 55:45
  They are. I mean I'm sure they're, they're
• 55:47
  toying around with it. Because why not?
• 55:52
  You know, there's no reason why not to
• 56:08
  So during this whole time that I've been down here, you know,
• 56:11
  I've only been here for about a month but I've been boosting up
• 56:15
  the studio space and like kind of rebuilding everything from
• 56:18
  scratch because back in New York I had had my little room, you
• 56:24
  know, my little little studio room, had a major upgrade moving
• 56:28
  down here. Luckily I've had a major upgrade
• 56:31
  and I'm in a much better spot than I was when I was up in New
• 56:36
  York. So you know I that's what I'm
• 56:42
  going to be focusing on for the next month or so is Studio stuff
• 56:45
  and making better videos, making more videos making more,
• 56:49
  informed videos better editing, things like that and just kind
• 56:53
  of mastering mastering more of the craft of creating content so
• 56:58
  we should have better content coming in the future.
• 57:02
  Got a little bit of Hardware picked up before I moved down
• 57:05
  here, so I could film and everything done at Starbase.
• 57:07
  So, That's all taken care of. And I have for the launch for
• 57:11
  the orbital launch. I have a whole studio setup that
• 57:17
  I plan on using, so we should in theory, I'm saying in theory
• 57:21
  because there's always something it might go wrong.
• 57:23
  But in theory, we should have a really good live feed for the
• 57:28
  for the launch. So stay tuned for that.
• 57:30
  I should be really cool but I got to take off, guys.
• 57:34
  I appreciate you guys stopping by.
• 57:35
  It's been really fun. I love chatting.
• 57:37
  You guys. I love interacting and hanging
• 57:41
  out and, you know, shooting the breeze everybody.
• 57:44
  So yeah, thank you for tuning in new video on Monday.
• 57:50
  So we're going to have a new video on Monday on the channel
• 57:53
  and working at another is kind of top secret video.
• 57:56
  It's going to be coming out, just in case lives out of a
• 58:00
  trailer. She suffered through quite a
• 58:01
  bit. It's moving to Brownsville
• 58:03
  Michael. Yeah.
• 58:04
  Yeah, she's she's hardcore man. I love what she's doing.
• 58:09
  I think she's doing great. Great work and the last couple
• 58:12
  feeds it like, last couple streams she's had been great.
• 58:16
  Great streams. So yeah, going to be taken off
• 58:24
  guys. I appreciate you.
• 58:26
  Let's maybe do this again tomorrow.
• 58:28
  That sounds like fun. All right, take care everybody.
• 58:32
  Hope your holidays were great, and you having a great day and
• 58:36
  I'll see you all next time. All right.
