1:02
Hello everybody. Welcome back to the space news
1:04
pod. My name is Will Walden.
1:07
And we have Neil and Mel with me today.
1:13
Hello, everyone awkward. Pause Soldier.
1:22
I give you an awkward. Pause just for fun.
1:24
Yeah that was great. That was great, the worst the
1:28
worst. Hey everybody we're gonna be
1:31
talking about some sn9 updates today as a knight is on the pad.
1:37
It is being prepped for launch. We have other videos, Cause we
1:43
have other update videos about that, but there's been some
1:47
venting, there's been some chilling, there's been some
1:51
moving around stuff, no flap test, yet haven't seen a flap
1:54
test yet but should be coming up in the future.
1:58
Now, you know, as of today, let me see if I can find this one.
2:03
The Let's see if I can find this.
2:07
I had this ready to go but I don't have it today.
2:11
Whatever let Padre stream, checked it out a little bit
2:14
earlier. There's some motion going on.
2:15
There's some people move it around but there hasn't been any
2:20
significant updates to sn9 for today.
2:25
Now we do have some questions though.
2:29
We do have some questions from you guys on Discord and if you
2:33
want to join up on Discord, And ask your questions.
2:36
We have a specific question and answer Discord link for live
2:43
shows. Let me get that for you real
2:44
quick and I will post it in chat.
2:48
There we go. Love the shirt.
2:51
Well, thanks, Matthew. Appreciate it.
2:52
There's a link in chat. If you want to ask questions, we
2:55
already have a bunch of questions and we will, you know,
2:58
will answer those right now in Mel's going to shout those out
3:01
to us. So let's get to it, let's get to
3:05
your questions. All right, so first question.
3:09
strum, It reduces will we expect a different flight plan for sn9?
3:17
Good question. I wish we do the answer to that
3:21
one, to be honest. That's about all.
3:24
I got to do the same thing. We don't expect them to do
3:28
anything different from sn8 just because it makes sense to get
3:32
duplicate data but or data, depending on who you talk to
3:37
you, but I think it makes sense to do that myself.
3:42
Well, what do you think? I agree with you?
3:45
I think that pretty much the same flight plan.
3:49
Everything. There's an echo.
3:50
Somebody says there's an echo feedback and Echo.
3:53
Okay, let's see here. New we might have to move you
3:56
over to Discord real quick. Let's go.
3:59
Okay, okay, let's do that. Let me unbeaten Discord.
4:02
We'll figure it out, technical difficulties, we're all figuring
4:05
this out. Let's see, I will unmute kneel
4:09
there and let me mute him on. There we go.
4:12
Can you hear me now can you hear me hear me no talking Talking.
4:15
Now how do I have an echo? Whoo, yeah, How do you have an
4:19
echo? I have to mute your disk or your
4:23
Skype. Look at this.
4:24
Professional, we're professionals here.
4:28
Okay so he can you hear me now? I can hear you now.
4:33
Yep, there we go. Can everybody else here?
4:35
I'll good, are we good? Are opposed.
4:40
He's all fixed. Okay, let's go.
4:41
Yeah, there we go. We figured it out.
4:42
Thanks guys. Appreciate the help.
4:44
They're okay. Matthew says it's great.
4:48
Okay, cool. Now, let's awesome.
4:50
So back to the flight plan, we don't think anything different
4:53
is going to happen, except for maybe Sni.
4:56
No, land properly. It's about it.
4:59
That's all I got. But we don't really know what
5:01
this plans dead center of the platform.
5:04
Yeah, and not blow up. That would be really nice, not
5:09
crumpled and get destroyed. Forgot to add that part.
5:11
Yes. Yeah.
5:15
All right. Do you got any more questions?
5:17
Melon. Oh, we got a couple more.
5:20
Yeah, so I just we have the next question is, what is the
5:24
particular predicted day for the Hop?
5:29
Let's see here, but we're going to get into that a little bit
5:32
later on, in the show. But we can give you a little bit
5:36
of, I'll give you a little hint. The road closures are a little
5:41
bit wonky, they changed from last time.
5:45
So there was Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday of this this week, it
5:50
was closed and now that's changed.
5:52
So, we'll get into that a little bit later, but little teaser for
5:55
you, All right, that's that one. Alright.
6:06
So let's get onto these meat of the show.
6:11
What are we talking about next? But what we got going on?
6:14
We get sn8. The SAT pad is clearing.
6:20
And they're working on stuff working on the pad and making
6:25
sure that it's clear for the sn9 landing.
6:30
There we go and we have a few photos from RGV aerial
6:35
photography, there we go, RGV I always get that wrong RGV aerial
6:40
photography so a few things update, Starship sn8 remains are
6:48
still being cleared from the law.
6:49
The Landing Pad also pad should be clearing and 15 minutes as
6:53
per announcement on the loudspeaker.
6:56
So, here's a photo of what do I say about a backhoe before a
7:02
backhoe, front, end loader, whatever.
7:04
All those things that people excavator, an excavator, people
7:08
were word commenting that it was just like, I don't know what I'm
7:12
talking about with these things but they're moving some stuff
7:14
out. As you can see, they're moving
7:15
big chunks of sna off the pad. And from there we got you know a
7:21
couple more excavator photos. Look at that cloth that giant
7:25
excavator claw crumpling. Yeah, there's a couple of
7:28
things. There's a couple things holding
7:30
up the launch of sn9, and then getting the pad clear and fixed
7:33
was two of them. So now they're clearing the pad
7:36
and they're also fixing the PAD as well.
7:39
Unfortunately, it looks like sn8 has been crumpled.
7:44
Once I get that we're not being saved for posterity.
7:48
It is been crumpled and is being taken away in pieces.
7:51
Yep. Unfortunately, you know, maybe
7:54
they're going to recycle this deal.
7:56
We're not sure exactly what they're going to do to it as
8:00
10-8 will relive in SN 25? Maybe yeah, maybe maybe they'll
8:06
recycle it. Yeah, so there we go.
8:10
We got a couple photos from RGV aerial and here's the, here's
8:14
something that's, really, really interesting to me, is that the
8:19
sna crater has been fixed. It's been repaired.
8:23
Okay. So, that's a big chunk of
8:25
concrete that they repaired. And as you can see, there's
8:29
still some some debris laying around.
8:32
But the pad, The Landing Pad itself up here.
8:35
The pad has been repaired. So make Memorial coins out of
8:40
it. Yields.
8:40
That sounds awesome. That sounds like fun.
8:42
Good idea. Yeah.
8:44
So the pad has been fixed. New concrete has been laid.
8:48
Now what is going to happen and how long is this thing going to
8:53
take because at this point you know the padded been created by
9:00
us any there was basically a giant crater in the middle of
9:04
it. They had you know they had to
9:07
dig it out. And they had to refill the whole
9:09
thing. So, as you can see, the whole
9:12
thing has been refilled. They didn't just dig out certain
9:15
pieces, just a big rectangle that they replaced.
9:18
So got a little bit information about, you know, how long will
9:22
it take for this pad to dry? It initially sets in about in
9:30
this is I just Googled this so I'm not a concrete expert guy.
9:34
And if there's any experts in the audience speak up, if
9:37
there's any way to speed up these times, we would love to
9:40
hear that too. Yeah.
9:42
That would be great to hear Texas weather.
9:45
Yeah, Matthew I agree. I agree 24 to 48 hours, the
9:49
initial set and the forms can be removed and people can start
9:53
walking on the surface. So you know in a couple days
9:57
people will be out. They're walking on the surface
10:00
checking it out. Make sure everything's all flat
10:02
and good and everything. Clearing it up a little bit,
10:06
seven days partial curing traffic from vehicles and
10:10
equipment is okay, 28 days. You know, it's possible that
10:15
they might have to wait a while before Starship sn9 launches.
10:21
So up to 28 days but I think the commentary about concrete, okay,
10:27
he's working construction. Imported before it depends on
10:29
what kind of concrete you use. It can be super long or super,
10:32
super strong. I imagine you said or super
10:34
fast. Sorry, you did say super long,
10:38
you probably meant that but I would have guessed that.
10:40
Super long means super strong and super fast means a little
10:42
bit weaker perhaps. Oh, maybe yeah.
10:46
So, yeah, if you guys know anything about concrete, please
10:50
join a Discord because I have no idea, 28 days.
10:53
He says, what do you think? Okay, so we could be weak and
10:58
they're going to want that pad fixed.
10:59
They're going to want it to be this show is brought to you by
11:02
backblaze. I use back place to back up my
11:05
podcast. My video files, all of my
11:07
writing stuff, and all my photos.
11:09
And you get unlimited computer backup, for Macs and PCs for
11:12
just $7 a month. You can back up.
11:14
Your own documents photos videos, drawings projects, all
11:18
of your data and access your backed up data from anywhere in
11:21
the world using the web app and you can access the files on your
11:25
mobile to iOS Android apps all covered.
11:28
And this is the cool part. This is my favorite part.
11:29
You can restore it by mail, a hard drive will come to your
11:32
house with all your data shipped to your door.
11:35
I could come to your business to and you can restore return
11:38
refund program so you can buy a hard drive restore, send the
11:41
hard drive back within 30 days and get a full refund.
11:44
So basically they ship you this hard drive and then you ship it
11:48
back and you don't ever pay for it.
11:50
Which is the perfect program for somebody who has huge files.
11:52
You don't want to waste days and days, downloading terabytes and
11:56
teraflops of data. And if you're worried about
11:58
accidentally, deleting your files to bucks extra month, you
12:02
can increase your retention history to one year, and I use
12:05
it for all of my video. Files comes in super handy.
12:08
So seven dollars plus two dollars nine dollars a month and
12:11
you get everything backed up. He's a mind for up to a year and

13:03
Plays.com / heel on back plays.com Ilan backblaze.com,
13:11
Ilan fully cured. I would like before they land
13:13
anything on it. So, So, my guess is that we're
13:17
looking at a few weeks before this thing launches.
13:22
Yeah, at least at least a few weeks, at least a few weeks
13:26
which is disappointing. But What you going to do?
13:30
Yeah, yeah, exactly. Look, sir, asking if the Texas
13:33
weather can make concrete harden faster, and it's the case.
13:38
Was it like regular cement? It's actually an exothermic
13:41
chemical reaction so that's where the Cure time comes from.
13:45
So the actual humidity humidity might be more of a factor than
13:50
temperature but not 100% sure on that.
13:53
Yeah no longer you keep it wet the stronger it gets.
13:55
Is that correct those people in chat?
14:03
Braden says, you actually want more moisture to help for best
14:06
results, okay? For sure.
14:09
So they'll probably cover up this part of the pad.
14:12
I would think and let it set, really slowly.
14:15
Remember the when they poured, the orbital launch pad, those
14:20
big tubes that are over to the left of this photo, they cover
14:25
them up the top with some plastic, and it's been sitting
14:28
there since they poured it and touched it.
14:30
Since that was an awful lot of concrete in there.
14:32
But my guess is that they're just letting that stuff cure, as
14:35
long as they possibly can. Yeah, I had Zoom.
14:39
So to tango says can't Starship land.
14:43
Even if it's not fully set, it can land.
14:48
I don't think it would land properly, I think there'd be a
14:51
lot of debris. If it's not fully cured because
14:54
I need it to be as hard as possible because there's any
14:57
sort of structural weakness to the concrete.
14:59
As we've seen from the launches just debris everywhere.
15:04
Could damage engines could damage anything and then the
15:07
landing could be a failure of it'll be horrible if they landed
15:10
in that same spot perfectly. But the because it was a fully
15:15
cured at it, destroyed The Landing Pad in that area and
15:18
destroyed the sand 9. At the same time, it would be a
15:21
horrible thing for that to happen.
15:22
So, yeah. And they can't really aim this
15:25
thing to well, just yet. So I would say that probably
15:28
gonna, wait, yeah, they're still working on that.
15:31
So it could be a little while before we see a launch here.
15:34
Yeah, could be a little bit, you know, and that's it.
15:38
It's just the way that these things work, you know, we all
15:41
want to launch as soon as possible.
15:44
And, you know, I would love to have had a launch this week.
15:48
I was pushing for the second week, I was pushing for the
15:50
fourth. I was pushing for today for
15:52
lunch, but you know, we sometimes we can't have nice
15:56
things and, you know, we will have them eventually, you know,
15:59
we will eventually have a launch of SMS but now they get more
16:04
time to test. They can do a whole bunch of
16:05
static fires that can do a real light of the engines, too.
16:08
To to make sure that the pressure is adequate tool and
16:11
that sort of thing. I think that there's a lot of
16:14
opportunity to do more tests on. I said nine, then they then they
16:17
really probably wanted to do and I'll take that time to do it so
16:22
I won't be sitting there static. It will it'll be doing stuff.
16:25
Yeah yeah yeah I think what? Yeah they want to make sure that
16:28
it is fully functional. It needs to be a fully
16:30
functional rocket. Of course flap tests my favorite
16:33
part but then they have to do all the other all the other
16:37
tests could do a bunch of static fires.
16:38
They can test a bunch of other stuff cryo stuff on the way to
16:42
this pad test pad lamp Landing Pad.
16:44
There we go. Landing pad curing.
16:46
So we have we have plenty of time to test this thing.
16:49
So a couple weeks at least probably unless they had some
16:55
sort of I'm guessing two weeks at least.
16:57
Yeah. Yeah.
16:59
Kyle's on the concrete was getting Kyle's mentioning that
17:03
it doesn't need more than seven days perhaps with their Tech.
17:06
But my guess is that they're going to I don't know anything,
17:10
but it's going to be at least a week if not too.
17:12
I don't know anything. Oh man.
17:19
Okay, so Nick says, you're not building a house or Launchpad
17:22
with this concrete, you can land a rocket on cured Concrete in a
17:25
few days. Now Nick, let me ask you, what
17:28
about, what about the kickback, from the thrusters from The
17:31
Landing? That's what I'm really concerned
17:33
about, you know, because it's very hot.
17:36
It's usually eat into it. Yeah, it'll eat into the
17:39
concrete and you know, the propulsion system could just dig
17:43
it out again and start shooting shrapnel all over the place.
17:46
So, you know, that's that's my major concern about not having
17:50
the pad curing, but also somebody else in chat said
17:52
something about additives and that possibly they have
17:55
additives for the concrete to help it cure faster.
17:59
But I'm going to go with me on this one and say a Weeks at
18:03
least at the very least and probably more like 33 weeks that
18:11
anything you're doing adding things to the concrete to make
18:14
it dry faster or cure faster. I should say is it's just going
18:19
to make it a little bit weaker. I would think like anything
18:21
you're adding to the concrete is taking away from these, the
18:24
ability for it to get a strong as possible.
18:28
My guess is that they wouldn't do that.
18:29
Even for Speed. Yeah, I don't think they We care
18:32
too much about launching the things fast, think they want to
18:35
launch them properly and you know, SN 10 for instance and
18:41
what maybe talk about s antenna bit more.
18:43
But SN 10, for instance is right behind it but they still have to
18:47
do the plumbing on. It's tough to electrical on it.
18:48
They still have to get it ready. It's going to take a few weeks
18:51
to get that ready. Anyway, so if s N9 takes two
18:54
weeks to launch an SN 10, just keeps getting ready over in High
18:57
Bay, so be it yeah, yeah. Not a big deal tank.
19:01
I move over and Some ten can be launched within days at that
19:06
point perhaps because I've done all the tests so there was a,
19:10
somebody posted a render. Yeah, somebody posted a render.
19:13
I think it was our TV aerial actually posted a render of to
19:19
Starships, right next to each other, on the pads off to try to
19:22
find that real quick. But it's really interesting to
19:24
see, you know, see these two Starships like right next to
19:29
each other getting ready to Launch.
19:33
Here's another cool thing to. Here's a video of the sna of
19:36
nose cone, that's being cleared. Check this out.
19:39
It's definitely teased having to Starships up there once.
19:43
Yeah, Here's a video for you guys to check out there.
19:46
Goes ice an aged. Look at that sad.
19:50
Yeah let's go. It was going to be something but
19:53
then they're just like yeah whatever crush it.
19:59
It's really cool. I'm going to skip forward a
20:00
little bit. But how cool is it?
20:03
That we get to watch this, though.
20:06
Like this is a thing that we get to watch.
20:09
It's pretty amazing. It really is.
20:13
Yeah, poor aesthetic. Nose cone.
20:18
There it goes. Clunk how's asking Kyle's asking
20:23
in Discord? What modifications to SN from SN
20:26
h 2 s N9 are most noticeable or different?
20:32
It's interesting. Go ahead.
20:37
Oh God. Okay, I know that Elon is said
20:40
that the changes between SN 8 and 9 are minor.
20:44
There are changes, but they are minor.
20:45
Not really that noticeable to be honest.
20:49
Yeah, as far as I'm concerned, you know, as far as I've seen as
20:52
well. There's not really that much
20:54
that much different because they want to make sure that it's all,
20:57
you know, just a test article has to be like pretty much the
21:00
same. They can't change a lot,
21:01
whatever they learn one of the next whatever they learned from.
21:04
Sn8 has been Lied to sn9 as much as best as they can based on
21:09
what they've built and they move forward that way and whatever
21:15
they learned from SN 8 and 9 will be applied SN 10 and these
21:18
things just get better and better.
21:19
That's the point of this iteration building kushell says
21:24
will the Raptors be at full thrust this time and will it fly
21:27
to a higher altitude and sn8, it'll probably be pretty similar
21:34
to SNA. I'm assuming it's going to be
21:37
the same height. 12 .5 K and I don't think I mistrust either
21:44
Hast. Yeah I think that there's not a
21:48
lot they can learn by going higher really other than perhaps
21:52
thrusting the Raptors up a little bit more.
21:55
I think they were as low as I can probably go and in sn8 most
21:59
of the way up, so perhaps they could increase the thrust a
22:03
little bit but beyond that they really can't learn a lot by
22:05
going. 30 kilometers, they've already done that, they've
22:08
already done the belly flop. They've already shown, they can
22:11
control the vehicle, its Landing or before it lands.
22:16
So I don't know whether the value of going higher, just yet,
22:21
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too.
22:24
There's no, there's no real reason to go hire other than
22:26
maybe test thrust, that's about it test extra thrust.
22:30
But I mean, then they had terminal velocity with the with
22:35
a belly flop. Anyway.
22:36
So they couldn't really get any any faster.
22:38
They anything, they saw that didn't quite work on sn8.
22:42
They want to redo that and see whether it works again on SN
22:45
night when the engines shut off. On sn8, there's a bit of
22:49
bouncing around Between the engines.
22:52
I they probably ran into each other a couple times so I think
22:55
they probably want to test that again to see whether they can
22:57
make that a smoother process. Yeah that's just one example.
23:01
For instance, there's there's other things as well, obviously
23:04
the landing but I think that they just want to do it again
23:09
and see you. Don't you don't take one, you
23:13
know, one kick of soccer ball and get it in the net and say
23:15
I'm done. I practiced enough for the rest
23:17
of my life you kick that ball a thousand times, you know?
23:21
Yeah. So I think that they'll continue
23:25
to kick that ball. Yeah, I agree to.
23:29
Yeah. And there's a couple couple
23:31
comments in chat. If they're testing heat shield
23:34
Shields they're going to go higher right?
23:36
Need the going to fly higher fall faster.
23:40
Initially. I don't think they're going to
23:42
do a lot of different, not a lot higher, not a lot faster mainly
23:49
because they have to test its like the very The very Baseline
23:54
test was sna, that was a very Baseline and they have to stay
23:57
in that Baseline until they have it perfect.
23:59
And from there, they'll move up to the next one because they
24:02
have to get all the data. And they have to make sure that
24:03
everything is great before they move up to 15 K 30k 50k, etc.
24:10
For sure. For sure.
24:11
And you're not going to test its tiny little area of heat
24:13
shielding. The only reason they've there on
24:15
the right there is to test the installation of it as well, as
24:19
to make sure they don't fall off during the belly flop.
24:22
Yeah. But you can't test the heat, the
24:25
heat protection part of it, without going into the
24:28
atmosphere or out of the atmosphere and back in again.
24:32
And they wouldn't do that with this.
24:33
Tiny part, it would be the entire bottom of the ship would
24:35
be covered at that point. You're looking at maybe SN 15,
24:39
that's my guess. Yeah.
24:40
Yeah. Somewhere around there.
24:41
That sounds pretty good. I want to show you guys this
24:45
also with SN 10 nearly complete, this is RGB aerial photography
24:50
on Twitter RGV aerial photos, but they This I've been showing
24:54
this a little bit SN 10 s N9 on the pad together and then they
25:00
say you know left Starship is Photoshop sn8, right?
25:04
Sm9. And then this is the cool part
25:08
Ilan says yes. So we're probably going to see
25:13
that which is going to be sure what especially the except for
25:18
us and I do lunch. Yeah, they're going to run out
25:21
of space. There were in a space over it.
25:23
The build site, they'll have to get rid of SN 10.
25:24
Yeah the base is going to be full and I just have to move
25:27
that out and out to the pad. You know what they they were so
25:31
close with sn8 the land? Yeah.
25:34
That I think the distance I've got between the launch pad in
25:37
The Landing Pad is enough that the vehicle won't get damaged if
25:41
they have another problem. But certainly if they land find,
25:44
it'll be totally fine. Yeah, I agree with you.
25:48
Now, let's I mentioned this really briefly during the early
25:53
part of the show about the road closures.
25:55
Now, let's take a look at the weirdness that happened with
25:59
these road closures. So we were supposed to be
26:02
closed, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday this week.
26:05
So right now we're closed on Monday, this is from Cameron
26:08
County. This is from the book.
26:10
She could Beach area where Starship is being built road
26:14
closure. Scheduled for today from 8 a.m.
26:18
to 7 p.m. this is all Texas time, secondary date which is
26:25
tomorrow the roads open, the beach is open.
26:29
So the closure got canceled. The beach is open, people can
26:33
drive through, there's probably not going to be any testing
26:36
tomorrow. There's no, you know, there's no
26:39
reason Oh wait, that's December 29th.
26:43
I apologize. That's my bed.
26:45
So, okay, so that's my bed. Okay, I just looked at that, I
26:48
was like wait, what? Okay, so Monday we're all we're
26:51
close. Never mind or clinical thing.
26:53
That's gone. I wrote this whole segment
26:58
segment. Okay let's let's just not and
27:08
whatnot. Isn't done basically so down.
27:14
So down here. Those are the closures Monday,
27:18
Tuesday? Wednesday, basically, that's
27:20
weak. All right.
27:21
All right. You guys got me.
27:22
You got me? Who said that first, this is
27:24
that is whose day you can go to the beach.
27:27
Yeah, go back in time. Go back in time.
27:29
I think if you fly Starship counterclockwise, is it what
27:34
Superman did you can turn back time.
27:38
So if you could fly a Starship that way that fast Then you can
27:42
go back and go to the beach. So we got closures all week or
27:47
Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week.
27:50
So like before like Neil said just pretty much the same tests
27:55
as before, but the pad has to cure.
27:58
So the booster elves will hear you.
28:04
Yeah, I hope I really hope you know, the next couple weeks we
28:07
can get a launch but yeah, it was It was one of those.
28:13
One of those things is, like, man, that concrete.
28:16
That's the thing that's going to hold them back.
28:17
It's the one thing that's holding them, back those one
28:19
thing at because they're pretty much ready.
28:22
Pretty much ready as far as a chick just sorry.
28:24
I just noticed teacher because ask the question in chat about
28:27
questions, she asked in Discord or they asked if this court.
28:30
Sorry, I didn't mean to assume we were going to be talking
28:35
about the booster and second and we've got your question all
28:36
lined up for that, so we'll definitely get to that.
28:40
Oh, cool, yes, we just we saved it.
28:43
Okay, so there we go. So this is the We which was what
28:50
are we talking about? Do you want to do you want to go
28:51
over that? Neil, let's do a Starship this
28:53
Starship have. Yeah.
28:56
Oh, like sketching it? Yeah.
28:58
Yes. The question was, how would they
29:00
get a super heavy to be so precise when Landing or
29:03
something about it being able to hover on another Channel.
29:06
How would that work? Not just hover.
29:08
But Ilana suggest that they want to try and catch the booster as
29:13
it comes back down and then put it gently back down on the
29:15
landing. The launch pad and get it ready
29:17
to go in another hour. Yeah.
29:18
So Yeah, it's pretty crazy and everybody's kind of going going.
29:22
Crazy trying to try to figure out how that would happen or how
29:26
that would work. I think the best version I've
29:28
seen is a pair of huge hands that catch it.
29:31
Gently and put gently back onto the launch pad.
29:35
I don't know exactly how they're going to do it.
29:37
Ilan said that they'll use the grid fins to absorb the weight
29:40
of it coming down and catch it. They're going to have to go.
29:46
It's those good friends are going to be crazy crazy straw.
29:49
Yeah exactly how they're going to to do that unless it's sort
29:55
of absorbs the weight as it comes down.
29:57
Like even this example you're showing now is so precise.
30:02
Yeah, the landing is so precise. There's it's a perfectly
30:06
vertical Landing. This is I don't know how you do
30:10
it. Yeah, that's insane.
30:13
It's going to have to have its going to have to be a system.
30:16
I would think this is sort of my idea without doing any graphics.
30:19
It has to be a system that would monitor the flight path assume.
30:24
And guess as to where the the spacecraft is going to be where
30:27
the boosters going to be as it comes back down and then adjust
30:30
its catch to match that trajectory I don't know how you
30:36
otherwise I don't know you're not going to be able to land on
30:39
a dime. I don't think with the booster.
30:42
I don't think it really land on the dime every time you want to
30:47
you know win gets in the way. Slide anomalies with thrust to
30:51
what not I would think that. It's there's always going to be
30:54
some element of play right? Or left or forward or back.
30:58
Yeah. And if that's what we've seen
31:00
from Falcon 9's like there's always something there's there
31:04
can be anything that Was wrong and whether it lands on his legs
31:09
and tips over, or it just kind of misses a little bit or like,
31:12
scoots a little bit because the Telemetry is wrong with the the
31:16
data's wrong or something like that.
31:18
There's been some incidents worst-case scenario is your that
31:23
yeah. Is that the the systems of cash?
31:26
It fails. Yeah.
31:27
And causes the booster tip over and explode and then your whole
31:30
launch pads gone for a while. Yeah.
31:33
So There's a lot of, a lot of thinking going on out there.
31:38
Yeah, I still think that Elon might have been joking, but who
31:41
knows. He might not happen.
31:43
Yeah. You never know what that guy.
31:45
He's a memer. He could have been like, yeah,
31:46
we're going to catch it and just like shut off his phone for like
31:49
two hours and been like, ha. Ha got him, you know?
31:52
Yeah, it could be. That guy were you on?
31:53
I would do that all the time. Yeah, but she knows he kind of
31:56
crowd Source. It idea though, which is really
31:58
cool because he might have had it in his head.
32:01
Like, you know, hey, I would love to catch this thing, but I
32:04
have a few ideas. Has.
32:06
I'm just gonna post on Twitter and see what happens and then
32:08
like, you know, 100 people reply like, how is that even possible?
32:11
You know, this is my idea, right?
32:13
But put hours into an animation. Yeah.
32:17
Yeah. The joint 3D models.
32:20
It's pretty incredible when you think about it.
32:23
Oh yeah. And not the solution comes from
32:25
one of those just you know out of the blue that would be
32:29
incredible. What an incredible
32:30
accomplishment accomplishment to say, hey, we're going to do this
32:34
and then somebody else out there in the world catches it and does
32:38
it. Yeah.
32:39
That be credit crazy. Yeah, that would be incredible.
32:42
They'll be incredible. I I don't even understand, I
32:47
don't understand how this is going to work.
32:49
It's too big. That's what I that's why I feel
32:51
it's way too big too. To catch it.
32:53
But also, I also thought Rockets weren't going to land vertically
32:56
ever. So, you know, Drew, you know,
33:00
so, and I never thought that Starship would I never imagined?
33:04
Starship could belly flop? I never thought Starship.
33:06
A rocket could belly flop and when they, when they announced
33:10
our ship was going to belly flop.
33:11
I was like what is this kid? It like what's going to happen
33:16
but it worked. These people are smart man.
33:20
So yeah there's going to be there's going to be some future
33:24
Engineers out there that are you ready catching Massive, massive
33:27
rockets and it's what the heck. And then sending them to Mars
33:31
with people on them. What the heck?
33:34
That's insane for sure. Yeah, we have we have some other
33:41
videos, so I don't know if you guys saw our Starship interior
33:45
videos yet we have we have a bunch of them that are like, you
33:49
know, we have one that's really curated.
33:52
For the launch and observation deck.
33:55
We also have some other discussion videos but we're
33:59
going to get some ideas from you guys.
34:00
Speaking of crowdsourcing about some of the lower decks as well
34:04
and we're also working on some lower decks are self and I want
34:09
to share a few ideas. So we can't share any of the
34:12
video yet. But we have, you know, we get
34:16
ideas for things by looking at other things, right?
34:19
So what do we, what do we think? Of when we started this kind of
34:23
Journey of building our own Starship Neil and Neo Park in
34:28
myself and Mel all work together to build the launch, the flight
34:33
deck and the observation deck and now we're working on another
34:37
deck which can't really well I don't know.
34:39
Should we say what it is? It's kind of I mean I don't know
34:45
you could say what it is. Sure why not do it.
34:48
Okay, okay so this is okay so let me let me just very briefly,
34:53
it's the living quarters. Basically Neil has been working
34:56
on this a lot, so I'm going to hand it over to him in a second
34:59
but basically, it's the living quarters, where people will be
35:03
hanging out on the way to Mars, sleeping, Etc.
35:07
And we have a couple, we can't we we had a couple ideas for
35:12
this. And you'll just went crazy with
35:13
it and I'm going to show you some pictures of some sort of
35:18
our influences here. Let me bring these up notes
35:21
O'Neill, do you want to explain kind of what we're going for
35:24
here? Yeah, well, in the first video
35:27
that we did the launch an observation deck.
35:30
If you haven't watched that video, please go and watch it's
35:31
pretty awesome, I think. But in the first one, we had 16
35:37
chairs in the launch deck in a circle that people could launch
35:41
and enjoy the view of the huge window.
35:45
So we've gone ahead with that. We think that 16 is a pretty
35:47
good number of astronauts, to head to Mars in the first
35:50
Vehicles. Not only for space reasons, but
35:54
also for mental, Health reasons. We just think that that's a it
35:59
allows everybody a decent amount of personal space on the
36:02
six-month Journey to Mars and gives them an opportunity to be
36:07
alone as well as gather together, do whatever they need
36:10
to do. So our goal obviously was to fit
36:14
16 cabins into our habitat deck if you will and so that's what
36:23
we've worked on and we're About a 9 meter wide Starship here.
36:28
That gives us a lot of space. These are actually pretty
36:30
luxurious little cabins that people get that's going to be a
36:33
space where you want to hang out.
36:36
You want to watch a movie. You want to talk to your friends
36:38
and family back home. You want to do some work,
36:41
there's lots of room in there. Obviously, if we look into
36:46
what's currently being used as sleep, space on the ISS or on
36:51
mirror, what happened? What have you?
36:54
They're pretty small Little spaces like telephone booth
36:56
sighs spaces. There's enough room in there for
36:59
a couple computers is enough room to sleep in and there's
37:01
enough room for, you know, a couple of pictures on the wall
37:03
and whatnot, but that's it. That's all you get.
37:06
And we wanted to make sure that people had a little bit more
37:09
than that on the trip to Mars. And we also knew that when they
37:13
got to Mars, they'd still have to use these.
37:15
So we want people to be able to sleep on the ISS people sleep.
37:19
Sort of on all walls, so up and down, don't matter on the space
37:23
station, so We want to make sure people can sleep there when they
37:27
got to Mars. So all of our cabins are
37:30
vertical, not vertical their horizontal, so you can actually
37:33
sleep horizontally when you get to Mars.
37:36
Yeah. And as will just point it out he
37:38
showed you the windows. So the next step down from the
37:41
observation deck is the habitat deck and they're going to have
37:45
Windows on half the ship. So people will actually be able
37:48
to see out of their cabins and we imagine halfway through the
37:52
trip you you swap with the other half so that he gets a chance to
37:56
see outside. Yeah, window seat.
37:58
It's yeah, we've got, we've got Provisions in place to for
38:04
radiation protection with those windows as well.
38:06
So we're working hard to make this, not only sort of the
38:12
spaceship of our Starship of our dreams, but also a practical
38:15
ship as well, that could actually live your live in and
38:19
would be protected by the way, as well.
38:22
It's not all about looks, is this practicality in there as
38:25
well? Yeah.
38:26
It's a it's a good mix. So like in the past Ilan has
38:30
stated that he wants it to be luxurious.
38:34
You know if you're if you're launching yourself to another
38:36
planet or between you know New York to LA, he wants it to be
38:41
really nice. So for this concept of our
38:46
second deck, we need was throwing up some of these ideas
38:50
and here's you know a luxurious walk.
38:55
Through. I'm not sure where this is from
38:57
you know. But it looks like this is a
38:59
cruise ship so crucial. Yeah that's sort of the entry
39:02
way onto a cruise ship. Okay.
39:04
So it'll be around the same size, vote it to be moving
39:10
around inside the Starship. Abby, it's similar League.
39:13
Yeah, yeah, I mean, we want to maximize the space that people
39:16
had in their cabins. So these quote-unquote hallway
39:19
as I'm calling it, which has the sort of the access tube to the
39:23
other decks, as well as sort of space to move around into your
39:26
cabin, is a little bit less as a little bit smaller than Than
39:33
what you just saw there, but obviously good.
39:35
We want to make sure that people have enough space in the cabins
39:37
to enjoy them. Yeah, yeah.
39:39
So we're we're working on. We're working with Neo pork, by
39:43
the way, if you've never seen Neo pork stuff, Neo pork 85 on
39:47
Twitter and if you've never seen the old pork stuff, go look at
39:52
everything he's ever done because Neo has probably, I
39:56
would assume if not the best Starship renders.
40:02
Tap like the top 1% of Starship renderers out there for sure.
40:06
And you know what? The best part about Newport, the
40:08
best part about working with Neil pork is that it's not just
40:11
you're not just getting renders out of him.
40:14
Yeah, I'm getting art out of him, he's an artist, he's not
40:17
just a you know what, a renderer his the Starship for instance.
40:23
The Starship textures that he's got on.
40:25
His vendors are incredibly detailed.
40:28
He's put so much effort into the rivets in the On the is the
40:33
stainless steel. It's incredible.
40:35
He's done a fantastic job. You get very angry, not only
40:39
that, but we get a lot of you get a lot when you, when you
40:42
send them Concepts which like we've done for our decks, it
40:47
comes back with art in it. It it, you know, he actually
40:50
puts thought into, you know, for instance, something I thought
40:54
that was amazing is that he, I said, here's where the mattress
40:59
will be. And I've noticed some people
41:01
mentioned that At sleeping horizontal, in space does make a
41:03
difference. I meant sleeping horizontal when
41:05
you land on Mars when the space our craft actually latches on
41:08
lawns. I marked so on the mattress.
41:11
He actually put seems in the mattress where you would have to
41:14
Stow the leather or whatever happens to be this covering the
41:16
mattress. I didn't tell you that you just
41:19
did it and that's the sort of thing that you the detail you
41:22
get the thought process. It's going through it.
41:24
Incredible work. Thank you.
41:25
Anil Pork. Yeah and it was it was awesome
41:28
to work with to cool. Dude.
41:29
Like really cool dude, too. So I guess I gave it Way that
41:32
we've seen renders everyone we're at the point where we're
41:34
looking at renders from Neil pork of the next deck and we're
41:38
just working on details now and it's going to be incredible.
41:41
Yeah, it's going to be awesome. I can't wait I can't I really
41:43
can't wait for the next. The next steps because we have
41:47
we've already had so much cool stuff like so much work that we
41:49
put into this and Neil and Neo have been working.
41:53
Really hard to get this to a really good spot and we're like,
41:57
were pretty. I mean, we're I wouldn't say
42:01
we're pretty close. Those.
42:02
We're but we're pretty close, we're getting.
42:05
There were getting that, we're much closer than we were a month
42:07
ago. So for sure these things take
42:09
time man, these things take a lot of time and we said to new
42:13
pork we said we want this to look awesome.
42:16
We don't want to rush it. Yeah and he's putting that art
42:20
in as I said and their artistic skill in so be great.
42:26
Yeah I can't wait this few more things in here and there's like
42:30
this is why I'll do this, is this one.
42:32
A wild. I saw this one in the Discord
42:34
and I was like what? Wait, hold on.
42:37
I guess I can zoom in on this like this crazy Chandelier.
42:42
You know, it's just like yeah I appreciate your pork and I were
42:45
talking about lighting and this is one of the things we've kind
42:49
of looked at and thought hmm what can we do with that?
42:52
You know, we've got this, we've got this tube this this sort of
42:56
access to going up through the center of the ship.
43:00
What can we do with that? And this is one of the pictures
43:03
that I wanted to use as inspiration.
43:06
So yeah, we're working on it. We're hoping to make this
43:11
habitat Deck. There's a there's a very real
43:15
possibility of this thing looking like a morgue because
43:18
you've got this basically a tube with some, some doors in it, and
43:23
we don't want it to look too too plain to.
43:27
So we're putting a little bit decoration on this thing.
43:29
We want this thing to look like. It's a luxury Cruise liner.
43:33
If you will, oh, you're going to be there for.
43:35
So we're like half a year. So it's got to be nice and then
43:38
and then some right one. Yeah.
43:39
And you'll be living in it as well until you're ready to move
43:41
to the surface. Yeah, we wanted this thing to
43:45
sort of have a little bit of luxury to it.
43:46
I have a little bit of more personality to it a little more
43:51
texture, a little bit more interest.
43:54
So yeah, we're working on that. That's, that's the details were
43:57
talking about. Yeah, I want this thing to look
43:59
awesome. Yeah, we're just we wanted to
44:02
look pretty great because it's got to be luxury, man.
44:07
This is your new life. Yeah.
44:08
You know, and you're spending you're probably going.
44:11
To spend a bunch of money to go to Mars, you know, hundreds of
44:14
thousands of dollars, probably maybe million bucks, I don't
44:16
know, a couple million bucks to go there.
44:18
So it's got to be up to your standards.
44:21
You know, if you have that kind of money that you can throw
44:23
around, you might as well have something really nice when you
44:26
go there. So it's cool.
44:29
I think it's really awesome and I'm really excited about our
44:32
next kind of voyage into this Starship rendering stuff.
44:38
It's pretty cool. This is the stuff.
44:39
So like and I'm going to be honest with everybody like The
44:42
stuff that I wanted to do since I was a kid and I'm like, how
44:46
can I do it? And I just never got a chance
44:49
and now Neo and Neal have this crazy idea and I'm like yes
44:52
let's do this. That sounds awesome.
44:55
And somehow like somehow we got connected to Neo and reached out
44:59
to him and it all worked out. So it's yeah.
45:02
Neo super cool. And we're working really hard to
45:04
get this out to you guys and, you know, we're, we're figuring
45:09
it out but it's I'm pretty stoked about it.
45:12
Yeah, it's gonna be fun and we have a bunch of questions about
45:16
like when will the launch be for sn9?
45:19
So SN 9 launch, we're speculating between two weeks or
45:25
about a month anywhere in between there.
45:29
Just because the pad hit the landing pad has been fixed, but
45:32
the but the concrete you secure. So yeah, I think that the
45:37
spaceship itself is ready to go. It's my spaceship, I guess the
45:41
suborbital launch. Each vehicle is ready to go.
45:43
They just need to do a couple more tests on it tests, the
45:46
Raptors. But yeah, they just it were
45:49
waiting on the sn8 damage to be cleared and fixed and put back
45:56
to rights. Yep.
45:57
Yes I need itself is gone now. Sadly.
46:01
Yeah. What's the pad?
46:02
Definitely need some time to cure the concrete that they've
46:05
just bored. They just poured it today.
46:07
Kyle as far as I, as far as I know, So, it was like last night
46:11
or today, it was, yeah, I got the news about an hour ago about
46:15
it so, yeah, it's it's all poured its cure and right now.
46:20
So, yeah, we'll see, but there's no concrete.
46:23
So, that's the other thing, there's no concrete on Mars and
46:26
we're going to have another video probably in the future.
46:29
We're going to have at least a discussion thought you guys
46:32
liked. How do you think they're going
46:33
to land on Mars because there's no Landing Pad.
46:35
We've talked about this a bunch before but You know, you'll come
46:38
up with Concepts will have ideas will do sketches, Etc and just
46:43
kind of throw it out there and see what you guys think because,
46:48
you know, Landing legs, could they work?
46:50
You know, you lad wants to do Landing legs, at some point, he
46:53
also wants to catch the Starship super heavy.
46:56
So what the heck? What that looks like?
47:00
Is there a landing? Is there a landing mount for a
47:04
Starship? Or is it going to be like, sir?
47:08
They don't want to have legs, apparently he.
47:09
Yeah. On says that the legs will get
47:11
in the way of the aerodynamics, as well as ADD weight, yum.
47:16
That's why they want to catch it.
47:18
Yep. Yeah.
47:19
Super heavy is going to be crazy man.
47:20
If they catch super heavy it's gonna be nuts.
47:24
Said the Rumba first to clear the pad and I'd like that.
47:28
Yeah, so there's there's a few options, you know, Mars is Rocky
47:33
as well. Mars has big Slots of large,
47:39
Rocky areas, like flat, Rocky areas.
47:42
So maybe landing on a large flat Rock might be a Idea.
47:46
You never know but there's also sand on Mars.
47:50
There's also debris on Mars that you know, if it's a Flat Rock,
47:54
there's probably going to be Pebbles on it.
47:56
There's probably going to be some other debris on it from
47:58
something at some point. So do you land on this giant
48:02
Flat Rock and just go like hope we make it but yeah.
48:06
Landing legs seem like a thing but also yeah, send up a path.
48:11
I think. One of the first things you need
48:12
to do. Yeah you need to get need to
48:14
send the robot. W to build a bad salad.
48:17
One of the first ships that go actually, the first couple ships
48:19
need to be sort of, probably redundant of each other, have
48:23
the exact same robots in each ship so that if one doesn't make
48:26
it the other one hopefully does and then have something in there
48:30
that can Can build that pad for them.
48:34
Yeah, hopefully that'll be really great.
48:36
Thank you, mr. Click click.
48:37
Oh thanks, dude. Super Chat.
48:39
Yeah, I appreciate that. Breaking the ice with my pledge
48:41
of support. Thank you so much.
48:43
Yeah, that's a, that's a good way to help out the channel to
48:45
thanks. Helps out a ton.
48:48
So yeah, we at this point, s N9, two to three weeks, probably
48:53
three or more. But in between them, they can
48:58
they can tell says, in the chat there.
49:00
Yeah, who knows. Have some?
49:02
You know, they're talking to the best concrete, pours, in the
49:04
world. So yeah, it's possible.
49:06
They've got some additive in their this making it faster
49:09
stronger faster. Who knows?
49:12
I'll we don't know and we're going to keep going to keep our
49:15
eyes out and watch what's happening?
49:17
Yeah, I'll tweet you line. And he'll never reply but I'll
49:19
say hey Ilan. When's this pad going to cure.
49:23
It doesn't know who I am for all waiting.
49:25
Yeah, we're all waiting dude. Come on.
49:26
We want to see this rocket fly. But, you know, well, we'll see.
49:32
We'll keep our ear to the ground and see if we can figure out
49:35
when this stuff will actually be cured, but they're still
49:39
clearing some stuff up there. Still moving some Around.
49:42
So they'll probably get sn8 completely cleared and all the
49:46
debris and stuff by either the end of today or tomorrow at some
49:50
point. And you know, because they've
49:53
done a bunch already and if they're not you know they're not
49:56
cleared by the end of today. It'll be early tomorrow so we'll
50:01
see. We'll see about that.
50:02
And then they just have to wait. They're only at this point.
50:04
They're ready to move it there only released stopping point is
50:08
the speed of the dump trucks, really?
50:10
I think The I can get a clear, no problem today.
50:13
Yeah, yeah, I think so too. It'll be really, really.
50:17
It's just going to. It's going to be horrible.
50:20
Just to like sit. We have to sit and wait though
50:22
for us at nine. We now it's like it's not the
50:25
rocket. You know, they've done some
50:27
tests already, they're going to do some static fires over the
50:28
next two weeks over the next week or so do some static fires
50:33
once those are done than sn9 is technically cleared to fly but
50:37
not technically cleared to land. So, we'll see, but maybe the
50:41
additives, you know, maybe they have some crazy additives in the
50:44
concrete. So maybe we'll see, ya Wessel
50:49
says, perhaps we could make a concrete using Mars dust
50:51
possibly and there's some, yeah, there's been some studies on
50:56
Earth with substitute Mars dust and you know, they've made
51:02
concrete, save made things out. I'm like, habitats and things
51:05
out of Mars. Mars like dust so, regolith
51:09
regolith. Yes, exactly.
51:11
And then it's really cool. It's really Really, really cool.
51:15
So we might have a show about that to.
51:17
What do you guys think? We've done a couple of those in
51:19
the past, but I really do enjoy them.
51:21
And there's all sorts of new habitats coming out all the
51:23
time. And yeah, you know, get to Mars
51:26
technology show. Yeah, sure.
51:30
So all the they have competitions every year about,
51:34
you know, building stuff for for to use on Mars to build new
51:38
habitats or create electricity or fuel or whatever happens to
51:42
be. So we can certainly go.
51:45
Are those and find the best ones?
51:47
Yep. Yep.
51:49
When and what is the point of a static fire will satisfy your
51:53
test? The engines test, the fuel, make
51:55
sure that everything works properly before they launch
51:57
basically, they don't want to blow out an engine.
52:00
They don't want to blow out of tube pipe anywhere or anything
52:03
that feeds the fuel into the actual engine.
52:06
So they have to test those things and they want to make
52:09
sure that the engines are cooled properly before they launch them
52:12
and nothing breaks off when they do the static fire.
52:14
Or so, that's pretty much the short and long of it.
52:19
And then once they do, the static fire test, they know
52:21
everything works, right? And then they can go ahead with
52:23
the full, the full flame. Turn it up and crank those
52:27
engines up and launch this sucker.
52:30
Hopefully. Yeah.
52:30
And I think we'll see. I think we might see a static
52:32
fire this week. I think so too.
52:34
I maybe Thursday or Wednesday or something like that.
52:38
That'd be awesome if we could see that.
52:40
Yeah. That'd be my friend.
52:41
I think will I think the next week maybe we'll see.
52:45
Of those engines as well. So, ecstatic fire than a stop.
52:48
And then every light several, a couple minutes later, which
52:51
would be amazing to see to. Yeah.
52:53
That'd be really, really awesome.
52:55
Yeah, so here, I'm queer spoiled though.
52:57
You know, we've already seen this stuff.
52:58
We've already seen them, do static fire and that's an 8.
53:01
So it's it's it's all have rest, but for them, it's a very
53:05
important process of it, but it'd be great to see you.
53:09
Great to see that stuff happen again the yeah, that would be
53:12
really amazing. So, I just posted a link to a
53:16
YouTube video that we did before and I also posted a link to our
53:19
Discord. We're verging on 300 members on
53:24
a Discord and we want to get up to 500 because we're really
53:26
pushing it because we want to get into discords partner
53:30
program. So, I'm going to spam the link
53:33
again. We want to get a discords
53:35
partner program, so we can offer more to people.
53:38
The space news pod, people out there.
53:41
So make sure to join up there and we're going to wrap this up.
53:44
Couple seconds here. So if you guys have any
53:49
questions make sure to post them on the Discord.
53:52
Here's a link directly to where you can add questions on our
53:56
Discord for the live shows right here.
53:59
This is a like that's the channel right there.
54:02
That's the channel you do and before we do these shows, we do
54:06
a Monday and Friday. We do twitch on Tuesday and
54:08
Thursday and other stuff during the week too.
54:12
So make sure to subscribe to the channel of course.
54:15
And get notifications because, you know, that's the only way
54:18
you're going to know when we're alive.
54:20
But if you enjoyed the show, I appreciate you stopping by.
54:24
And you know if you enjoyed it make sure to give it a thumbs up
54:26
and subscribe, of course, and go to this corner.
54:29
If you want more info, there you go.
54:31
There's, there's one more, one, more question in chat that
54:33
people are asking about artificial gravity on the Mars
54:35
trip, my guess is that they will not even bother trying to have
54:39
any artificial gravity on Mars trip.
54:40
It's only six months. It's not really that long people
54:43
spend that time on the SS. Yep, regularly.
54:46
Now that's a. That's a standard mission on the
54:47
ISS. So know they probably won't
54:50
bother with any artificial gravity going to Mars certainly
54:53
it in the near future. Yeah it eventually they may
54:57
build something like a huge star ship that has artificial gravity
55:02
but at this point, you know, it's just a, it's a tube
55:05
basically. It's a rocket tube and be
55:08
floating around a lot of complexity.
55:10
It's a lot of complexity to build gravity.
55:13
Yeah, ownership the go. Going just going to Mars, it's
55:15
not that long. Yeah, yeah, that's it's in.
55:19
It's a massive undertaking. It's a massive massive thing
55:22
that you have to send either sent to space or building space.
55:27
And we're not quite ready to build in space yet, so that's
55:31
going to be a little while. Unfortunately, those kind of
55:33
things you're going to take a lot of time and cool.
55:35
Mad Mike says, six-month one way, and 2q decrease gravity on
55:38
Mars for a year. Two years would be a record.
55:40
It's certainly a long time to be in decreased gravity.
55:43
Mars is what a third. Of Earth's gravity.
55:47
We don't actually know what's going to happen to the body on
55:50
Mars. Even yeah, we know what happens
55:52
in space for for a while and somebody's been up there for
55:55
over a year. So we kind of know what happened
55:57
to his body in that time. But yeah, a third of Earth.
56:04
Gravity. Who knows what the effects are?
56:06
Maybe maybe it fixes a lot of the issues that we've had maybe
56:10
a third is enough, we don't know.
56:12
And, and so these first people going to Mars, And it'll be part
56:16
of a grand experiment. Right, let's find out what
56:18
happens to him. Is there going to be living
56:20
guinea pigs? Yeah, yeah it's going to be,
56:24
it's nainoa crazy and they know do know it.
56:26
Yeah. Yeah, they do.
56:28
Yeah. And that's what they signed up
56:29
for. It's like, it's like saying to
56:31
an astronaut, why would you go to space when, you know, your
56:34
body is going to get messed up or like to an athlete, why would
56:36
you play football? If, you know, your body's going
56:38
to get messed up or soccer, or baseball or whatever, like
56:41
you're going to get ripped up in all those sports, or
56:43
skateboarding or snowboarding, I have to use At sports, but
56:47
anything like that. Like, why would you do it?
56:49
And then you just say like because I want to and I think
56:52
it's really cool. And that's all you got to say
56:54
like that. No one can touch you.
56:55
Yeah, I think it's really cool to go to Mars, man, but why
56:59
wouldn't I like that? That's the other thing.
57:00
Why wouldn't I do it? And so those are the dreamers,
57:04
man. And those are, those are the
57:05
people that we want to surround ourselves with yeah, bad wolf is
57:09
saying they're not gonna send people to Mars, until they saw
57:11
the radiation problem. Of course, they need to be able
57:14
to be safe. Possible on Mars, though.
57:16
That problem will be solved. Yeah, yet.
57:19
And we're working on that for our show to, for our, for our
57:23
own videos. And we're going to have
57:24
discussions, I've discovered about.
57:27
Yeah, yeah. The next, the next video, after
57:29
this one, we'll go into our radiation solution for Starship
57:32
little bit in addition to the deck that it's that is going to
57:36
be describing. So, you know, there are, there
57:41
are people working on the radiation problem all the time
57:43
Mars. You know, Mars is a different
57:45
story. You could actually use Mars
57:47
itself, like, the regolith to stop some of that radiation or
57:51
absorb, some of it. So it's actually probably a
57:54
little bit easier on Mars, the deal with radiation than it is
57:57
in space. But yeah, they're going to solve
58:01
these problems. There's people working on these
58:02
problems all the time. Yeah.
58:05
All right. So I guess that is it for now,
58:09
my friends I want to say thank you to everybody out there.
58:15
Of course. Thanks everyone.
58:16
Thanks to Neil for joining me today.
58:19
Thanks for all your questions, to all your.
58:22
You know, we're going to try to answer as many questions as we
58:25
can for our live shows from now on and, of course, I've I've
58:29
sent this link a bunch of times today, but here's another link
58:32
to our Discord. We want to get it as active as
58:35
possible to, so if you have anything space-related, SpaceX
58:41
Elon Musk, whatever. Go to our Discord and start
58:44
talking about it because we have other like-minded cool people
58:46
there. That'll help you out and hang
58:48
out and we could discuss things like Mars radiation, you know,
58:52
traveling to Mars, Starships, blue origin.
58:55
If you're up for that, of course, we're not just Basics.
58:59
NASA Ula all everything. Everything involved with human
59:02
space flight. We love it.
59:03
So, come on over and join up on Discord.
59:07
So yeah, thanks everybody for hanging out.
59:10
Appreciate it, make sure to subscribe, of course, very much,
59:13
of course sub. And we're going for sixty
59:16
thousand subscribers. When is that 55 754 right now?
59:22
So close enough, we're close. Thanks guys.
59:25
All right, we're out of here. Have a great day everybody.
59:29
And from a business pod, see you soon.
59:33
Bye! Bye.
59:35
Here's some renders, by the way, here's some renders of our
59:39
Starship. So check those out as you watch
59:44
the people that have become members of the show and
59:46
contribute to the show. Thank you to Jerry Rawson for
59:53
becoming a new member of the show today and also mr.
59:56
Glick, click for the Super Chat. Alright, see you guys later.
1:00:05
Bye.
