A race to Orbit! SpaceX Vs. NASA · Elon Musk Podcast

• 0:05
  There's really no race between SpaceX or anybody else.
• 0:08
  They're doing their own thing, and the only race they have is
• 0:14
  the race to the moon, the hls program.
• 0:17
  So they have to be ready around 2024 for the hls program.
• 0:22
  But there's really no rush to get any sort of timeline
• 0:26
  underway for SpaceX to launch this thing.
• 0:30
  Even by the end of this year. I mean it's a 400-foot tall
• 0:34
  rocket. The thrust is unmatched.
• 0:37
  It is the biggest most amazing rocket that will ever fly when
• 0:43
  it does fly so there's really no reason for them to rush through
• 0:46
  all over these tests. Take your time, Ilan says July.
• 0:51
  Ilan. Also said September of last year
• 0:54
  when I moved to Starbase and that never happened.
• 0:58
  So I'm assuming some time this year.
• 1:02
  That's what I'm going to be. ET b d on launch time.
• 1:05
  Launched a TBD and I'm hoping I really am hoping That sometime
• 1:12
  in August, maybe September would be great too.
• 1:19
  That we get a launch of this thing.
• 1:20
  So we'll see, you know, well pretty much see what happens
• 1:24
  with Starship. Booster 7 ship, 24 or they're
• 1:29
  doing pressure tests for the next couple days.
• 1:35
  There's some road closures coming up.
• 1:39
  For let me take a look at these. Make sure they didn't change it.
• 1:43
  All 29th is a possible closure. The 30th possible closure, July
• 1:49
  5th. Possible closure.
• 1:51
  That's an alternative date after the June 30th possible closure
• 1:55
  July 6. So they're going to have from
• 1:58
  June 30th. They're going to take a break
• 1:59
  for. I think they're going to take
• 2:01
  out like a, you know, the five day break for Independence Day
• 2:04
  Celebrations, and things like that from testing.
• 2:08
  So, if they do, Do get things done by Thursday, June 30th,
• 2:14
  July 5th and 6th alternative dates for possible.
• 2:18
  Other testing, either I'm beyond pressure tests or cryo tests.
• 2:22
  Moving forward and Yolanda, said, a few times that SpaceX
• 2:28
  doesn't intend to blast all 33 Raptors, at the same time, for a
• 2:33
  pressure or for a static fire test.
• 2:36
  So we can see in the future, I don't know if it's To be man, I
• 2:40
  don't know. I'm I'm I'm torn.
• 2:43
  What's going to happen? First?
• 2:45
  Are they going to be doing a static fire test before a full
• 2:50
  stack? So what do you guys think?
• 2:53
  Let me know. I know there's like 60 people
• 2:55
  here on the chat so let me know what you think in the chat if
• 2:57
  they're going to do a static fire test first, or if they're
• 3:00
  going to do a full stack test because without the two things
• 3:04
  fitting together, there's no reason to static fire them, but
• 3:10
  it also goes the other way. If the static Fire, doesn't even
• 3:13
  matter because it failed, you know, or if they, you know
• 3:16
  something like that, like there's no reason to stack them
• 3:18
  up and we've seen, you know, 420 booster for ship 20, they stack
• 3:26
  there was no real static fire of anything.
• 3:29
  I mean there were there said fire the ship and stuff but
• 3:31
  there was no real big-time static fire and then they stack
• 3:35
  them up they did a fit test that was it you know so I don't know
• 3:40
  what the I don't know what the series of events will be and
• 3:44
  we're all kind of hoping that it's a static fire because it
• 3:47
  would be pretty sweet to see a static fire happen but let's
• 3:51
  just No, we need a way to figure this one out.
• 3:54
  So let me know what you think in the in the chat in the comments.
• 3:59
  You think it'll be static fire first?
• 4:00
  You think they're going to do a full stack first?
• 4:01
  Because it would be pretty sweet to have a full stack of Starship
• 4:05
  again. 400 is feet, tall. The rocket for my experience at
• 4:12
  Starbase for hundreds of days, it's the most Immaculate thing
• 4:19
  I've ever seen in my life. I'm a space flight Enthusiast.
• 4:22
  I have been since I was a little kid, my whole family worked in
• 4:27
  in the industry. My dad was an engineer.
• 4:31
  He built parts of the Space, Shuttle parts of some other
• 4:34
  rockets and NASA was building my ER also worked in the industry
• 4:39
  and he did the same, not the same thing.
• 4:41
  He was an engineer. He was like a top-level engineer
• 4:44
  at the the company that I worked for.
• 4:48
  And he also worked on some early NASA stuff.
• 4:53
  So, It's in my blood but I really I would love to see this
• 4:58
  next generation of space flight happen in our lifetimes.
• 5:02
  You know. Like, I think it's going to be a
• 5:04
  long time. A very long time before we
• 5:06
  actually have like a sustainable moon base, you know, NASA, just
• 5:12
  released some figures. Let's see a couple days ago.
• 5:17
  Artemis, one. Launched this year hopefully.
• 5:21
  And Eric Berger says, they want to do it in August between the
• 5:27
  the August and September dates. So, SLS Black one with Orion,
• 5:33
  it's an uncrewed test flight around the Moon that should
• 5:37
  happen by the end of this year, if everything goes.
• 5:39
  Well, right? So if we can get the SLS rocket
• 5:43
  back to the Vehicle Assembly Bay, Bring it back out.
• 5:48
  They're not going to do another. They're not going to do any more
• 5:51
  tests on it. Third just going to launch it,
• 5:54
  which is crazy. That's the literally, the
• 5:57
  biggest rocket that's ever flown.
• 5:59
  So, if NASA gets the SLS off the pad and flying towards the Moon,
• 6:07
  to fly around the Moon. That'll be the biggest rocket
• 6:10
  ever flown. Most powerful rocket ever flown
• 6:12
  until Starship flies. Right?
• 6:15
  And it's our ship will take the lead and then we'll see what
• 6:18
  happens from there. They going to make a bigger star
• 6:20
  ship. Our is Jeff Bezos and blue
• 6:22
  origin going to step in and be like hey we got these be four
• 6:26
  engines like let's hook it up, let's make a gigantic rocket.
• 6:31
  Even bigger than their proposed Rockets, make it a different big
• 6:35
  rocket, a different big, big, big rocket, and maybe that's
• 6:39
  what they'll call it. The big, big big rocket.
• 6:40
  I'm not sure, but they will be kind of funny if they did.
• 6:45
  So we'll see what happens but fiscal year of 2023.
• 6:51
  Nothing planned for the SLS. Nothing.
• 6:53
  There's, there's nothing on the books.
• 6:56
  Artemis to in 2024, if all goes, well, SLS block 10 Ryan, there's
• 7:02
  going to be a crew, test flight around the moon.
• 7:03
  So the time between 2022 and 2024, they're going to take all
• 7:07
  the data from 2020 to figure out everything.
• 7:12
  The went wrong things that went right things they want perfect
• 7:14
  things, they didn't expect that were really great and things
• 7:17
  they didn't expect that went really bad then going to take
• 7:20
  all that data put it together and make fixes for the Artemis
• 7:24
  to Mission and also train astronauts for their crude test
• 7:28
  flight around the moon in 2024, if that doesn't go well, Artemis
• 7:33
  to could possibly be pushed back to 2025, and this is a pot of
• 7:36
  huge possibility because this that rocket is never flown.
• 7:42
  That's what I keep telling everybody.
• 7:44
  And people people have to kind of understand how the how the
• 7:48
  process works. You know.
• 7:49
  At some point these things are these are just test Rockets.
• 7:54
  There's no guarantee of anything at all.
• 7:57
  They've never flown before. SLS has never flown before.
• 8:00
  Starship has never flown before. Starship ships have flown, but a
• 8:05
  fully stacked Starship has never flown before.
• 8:08
  There's never even been a static fire of a booster with 33 Raptor
• 8:12
  two engines. So this is Uncharted Territory.
• 8:17
  This is still researching development at this point, this
• 8:20
  isn't a full product so seeing where they are now compared to
• 8:26
  where they were last year at this point, it's absolutely
• 8:28
  insane. But seeing where they're going
• 8:32
  to be a year from now compared to where they are now.
• 8:36
  Holy cow, it's going to be absolutely mind-bending to see
• 8:40
  what happens there. My plate is get back there.
• 8:44
  My plan is to get back down to Texas at some point.
• 8:46
  Probably stay a couple months, get a bunch of footage, go down
• 8:49
  there and just experience. Boca Chica.
• 8:52
  Again, I like my time there, I thought it was great.
• 8:55
  It's, there's, there's some people that I really enjoyed
• 9:00
  hanging out with down there, and that was pretty cool, but the
• 9:03
  cool thing was, hey, I could go see Starship any day I wanted to
• 9:07
  and most days I did unless it was like 105 degrees out, which
• 9:11
  is most which is a lot of the time.
• 9:13
  So you kind of have to plan either.
• 9:14
  Go in the morning. You're going night when it's 95
• 9:17
  instead of 105. So you kind of get used to the
• 9:20
  Heat. And then I would love to get
• 9:23
  back there. What's up, pretty?
• 9:24
  How you doing? So the, you know, the there was
• 9:30
  a Beyond pressure test yesterday of Starship booster 7 and
• 9:37
  there's possible testing all night tonight.
• 9:44
  So, we'll see what happens in the next couple hours.
• 9:46
  See what happens to Starship booster.
• 9:50
  This show is brought to you by backblaze, I use back place to
• 9:53
  back up my podcast. My video files, all of my
• 9:56
  writing stuff at all, my photos, and you get unlimited computer
• 9:59
  backup, for Macs and PCs for just $7 a month.
• 10:03
  You can backup your own documents photos videos.
• 10:05
  Drawings projects, all of your data and access your backed up
• 10:09
  data from anywhere in the world using the web app and you can
• 10:13
  access the files. Your mobile to iOS Android apps
• 10:16
  all covered. And this is a cool part.
• 10:18
  This is my favorite part. You can restore it by mail, a
• 10:20
  hard drive will come to your house with all your data shipped
• 10:23
  to your door. I could come to your business to
• 10:25
  and you can restore return refund program so you can buy a
• 10:29
  hard drive restore, send the hard drive back within 30 days
• 10:32
  and get a full refund. So basically they ship you this
• 10:35
  hard drive and then you ship it back and you don't ever pay for
• 10:38
  it which is the perfect program for somebody who has huge files
• 10:41
  and you don't want to waste days and days.
• 10:44
  Is downloading terabytes and teraflops of data.
• 10:47
  And if you're worried about accidentally, deleting your
• 10:48
  files to bucks extra month, you can increase your retention
• 10:52
  history to one year, and I use it for all of my video.
• 10:55
  Files comes in super handy. So seven dollars plus two
• 10:59
  dollars nine dollars a month and you get everything backed up.
• 11:02

  Plays.com /l on backblaze.com, Ilan, backblaze.com Ilan. and
• 12:06
  hopefully we can get some more information about the next, you
• 12:09
  know, few days what's going to be happening with the test cycle
• 12:12
  because I go saying before, there's probably might not be a
• 12:14
  static fire for a little while might not be another static fire
• 12:19
  and it's possible that we have to wait a couple weeks for a
• 12:21
  static fire and that's fine when hop Early, 22 pretty.
• 12:28
  I have to fix it. Whoops, let's see.
• 12:32
  Let's see early. Let's switch it too early and
• 12:34
  2023. I totally forgot about that one.
• 12:38
  Thank you for finding finding that out though.
• 12:42
  I'll fix that right now for you. Let's go nightbot.
• 12:50
  Do your thing. Alright, then we'll figure it
• 12:55
  out. But yeah, the if you have any
• 13:01
  questions, let me know. Also you know, let me know what
• 13:04
  you think. Let me know what you think
• 13:07
  about, you know, the hopped. I'm like, what are they going to
• 13:09
  fly this thing? Late.
• 13:15
  There we go. Switch early too late.
• 13:20
  And we will be on site. We will be on site for the
• 13:23
  launch of Starships. So please, if you aren't
• 13:26
  subscribed yet, make sure to hit the Subscribe button.
• 13:28
  Takes a couple seconds. It's free.
• 13:30
  It lets YouTube know that you're interested in Starship content
• 13:33
  to. So they'll funnel more Starship
• 13:35
  content to you, which is really neat.
• 13:37
  And also, if you leave a comment or chat or they'll know that
• 13:41
  you're more interactive with this kind of stuff in that, you
• 13:43
  really like Starships. So they'll funnel all the good
• 13:45
  Starship content to you, which is really cool.
• 13:48
  I do the same thing if I see you again.
• 13:49
  Our ship video. I'll like it.
• 13:52
  I give a thumbs up. It's a nice way to tell the
• 13:55
  Creator. Hey we appreciate you and also
• 13:57
  hey YouTube, I like this stuff so please feed me more and we
• 14:01
  love Starship stuff. So anything we can get, we're
• 14:06
  Starship attics. So if you can give, can we get
• 14:09
  up to 60 likes? Is that a possibility?
• 14:11
  We're at 59 right now. Could one person, hit the like
• 14:14
  button? Make it a round number that be
• 14:16
  great. Eric Burger.
• 14:19
  Let's see what did he say here. I'm going to, I'm going to
• 14:21
  quote, his tweet. From earlier.
• 14:26
  Got to find it though, but it's about Starship and when it'll
• 14:34
  launch. NASA says they plan to roll the
• 14:45
  SLS back to the vibe on July 1st.
• 14:48
  There will then be six to eight weeks of work or more.
• 14:51
  If inspections uncover issues. Before the SLS can be rolled
• 14:54
  back to the path for launch attempt.
• 14:57
  So we have six to eight weeks from a couple days from now.
• 15:02
  So today is the 28th. If we get to the 30th, then the
• 15:04
  next day, the first, the rolling.
• 15:07
  It back to the vapp July 1st will have covered to that.
• 15:09
  For, if it's available online. And we will see if they uncover
• 15:18
  any issues and then they'll move it back out from the web to the
• 15:20
  pad. And then from there they'll
• 15:22
  launch. This thing, which is pretty
• 15:24
  crazy. NASA's.
• 15:27
  Tom Whitmire says the agency is not ready to settle launched.
• 15:29
  It yet. More review is needed in the
• 15:31
  date. Likely won't be announced for a
• 15:33
  few weeks. The first two possible windows
• 15:35
  are August 23rd, through September 6th.
• 15:38
  So, do you think Starship will beat SLS August 23rd?
• 15:43
  September 6. That is if they roll this thing
• 15:46
  back to the web and they don't find anything crazy wrong with
• 15:49
  it. Could they be pushing out, SLS,
• 15:53
  August 23rd. Because they'd be launching it
• 15:56
  on August 23rd of there by somewhere around there.
• 16:00
  And could SpaceX possibly make it before August 23rd, they
• 16:06
  still have to do a full stack Starships.
• 16:09
  Let's do a full stack. They have to do pressure
• 16:13
  testing. They have to basically test all
• 16:16
  the pipes as well for the internal the internals of
• 16:20
  Starship and the internals of the booster, they have to test
• 16:25
  the internals when booster and Starship or stacked, they have
• 16:29
  to Possibly another cryo test, a full stack cryo test, they have
• 16:33
  passed we have to do another cryo test of booster.
• 16:41
  And there's a possibility that in the future, you know, they're
• 16:45
  going to have to do, more pressure test, they're going to
• 16:47
  have to do more cryo test. They could fail a test, you
• 16:51
  know. So there's a possibility.
• 16:53
  Starship could be postponed until later this year, which is
• 16:56
  fine. You know, I'm not urgent about
• 16:59
  this. I'm anxious to see this thing
• 17:01
  fly. I think would be really great if
• 17:03
  this thing flew. But there's a possibility that
• 17:05
  we don't even get a launch of Starship until next year.
• 17:09
  It's a, it's a, it's a chance that we don't get a launch of
• 17:13
  Starship. Till next year Ilan said,
• 17:16
  booster and ship will be ready by July and that's totally,
• 17:21
  totally. Okay, you know, could Starship
• 17:25
  fly in July. We don't know exactly what's
• 17:28
  going on with the pad either. Is the pad 100% done?
• 17:31
  Is it close enough to being done that?
• 17:34
  They could launch with it from what we've seen?
• 17:36
  They're getting, you know, as close as possible to.
• 17:39
  To a full launch. Launched our launch pad and the
• 17:45
  QT arm, you know, they always do test of the QT arm, and the lift
• 17:49
  arms, while there, while they're waiting for other tests to
• 17:52
  happen, and they schedule those things.
• 17:54
  So, You know, we could have, we could have a launch in July, I'm
• 18:00
  guessing. So this is my guests.
• 18:01
  Personally, I'm thinking September or October of this
• 18:04
  year, September October this year, I think, and this is a,
• 18:08
  this is a, this is not going to be good for a Starship, Starship
• 18:12
  daily stream here, but I think SLS is going to be Starship to
• 18:18
  orbit. I think it's going to beat it
• 18:20
  and I don't I'm a fan of both. I'm a fan of Rocket flight, you
• 18:23
  know, spaceflight. So Me saying that SLS is might
• 18:28
  beat Starship to orbit, isn't anything against Starship.
• 18:32
  It's just that SLS has a has done everything.
• 18:36
  They need to do, and they have a few small things to fix up
• 18:39
  before they actually launch it. So, you know, they verified the
• 18:48
  function of the interfaces, between the Orion in the ground
• 18:50
  systems, they verified the function of interfaces between
• 18:54
  the SLS core stage in There's with the ground systems, they
• 18:57
  verified the function of interfaces.
• 18:59
  Between the SLS upper stage with the ground systems.
• 19:03
  They verified the function of interfaces throughout the
• 19:05
  integrated SLS, and Orion with the ground systems.
• 19:10
  Integrate the test of all SLS, and Orion critical communication
• 19:13
  systems. They've tested the countdown
• 19:16
  commanding sequence with simulated countdown before
• 19:18
  rolling to the launch pad. They've checked out the various
• 19:21
  SLS systems functions. They've checked out the SLS and
• 19:25
  Orion functionality with Launchpad systems before.
• 19:28
  And after rollout, they demonstrate a tanking and D
• 19:31
  tanking SLS with cryogenic propellants at the launch pad
• 19:36
  and the only thing that they need to do, as far as I know, Is
• 19:40
  test and install the flight, termination system, the FTS.
• 19:45
  So there's a possibility that all they have to do.
• 19:49
  Is take this thing, back to the web, do a few changes, and then
• 19:53
  bring it back, or take it to the, yeah, to the value of the,
• 19:57
  bring it back to the pad. So I'll so let's Artemis.
• 20:00
  One may fly before Starship have the FAA finally given the
• 20:04
  all-clear been away Deb's, they have done the they've cleared
• 20:07
  environmental so far. The FAA has not cleared them for
• 20:11
  flight for a Starship. Yeah.
• 20:18
  And the other thing about SLS is that the srbs they go stale.
• 20:23
  Which could delay the flight to and I'm not exactly sure the
• 20:26
  time of the when these SRB rocket engines go stale but they
• 20:31
  do have a shelf date which is weird.
• 20:34
  You wouldn't think that a rocket would have a shelf date but they
• 20:36
  do. I'm not exactly sure what that
• 20:38
  shelf data is so I'll have 20 have to see But this is an
• 20:47
  uncrewed flight around the Moon and back.
• 20:49
  So, There's no launch date quite yet, but there's a possibility
• 20:57
  that we get it, you know, we get it.
• 21:02
  Before we get Starship. But they're making progress.
• 21:10
  Starship is making progress. Since they move the booster from
• 21:16
  the bay to the pad. I'm just 32 or 33 Raptor two
• 21:20
  engines. It was crazy.
• 21:25
  This is this is an insane feet. Super, heavy rocket lifted by
• 21:31
  Mechagodzilla. Now we know that the Mecha Zilla
• 21:34
  arms can can pick up a full booster.
• 21:39
  Full of raptor. 2's 33, Raptor twos. so, if the booster
• 21:47
  survives, the pressure tests and potential static fires coming
• 21:50
  up, You know, it's possible that the Raptor two engines are good
• 21:58
  and we'll see what happens. You know, we'll see what
• 22:03
  happens. And if the sapphire is perfect,
• 22:06
  these Raptor to is, as much as they're better, than the Raptor
• 22:10
  ones there a better design, their sleeker design, less
• 22:13
  moving Parts. Everything is more integrated,
• 22:15
  more thrust, it's a better engine altogether.
• 22:19
  Now, if something happens to the Raptor to engines that was if
• 22:22
  something were to happen, Happened during these static
• 22:24
  fires. They would have to postpone
• 22:28
  another static fire until they figure out what went wrong with
• 22:31
  these engines. And by the way, this is an R&D
• 22:34
  Mission. So research and development for
• 22:37
  Starship. You know, the, the timeline is
• 22:42
  very flexible. So as much as Elon loves to push
• 22:47
  people to do work, very fast and work very hard.
• 22:53
  Starship. You know, might not launch till
• 22:56
  next year. Well, the tile stay on after a
• 22:58
  static fire. That's another thing.
• 23:00
  Will the tile stay on of ship 24.
• 23:09
  During the static fire will it shake it enough that the that
• 23:13
  the heat title stay on? And the answer is maybe I guess
• 23:18
  at this point because we don't really know because it's never
• 23:22
  static. Fired Raptor to is on that
• 23:24
  thing. A full ensemble.
• 23:31
  Of raptor to. So there's still a lot of work
• 23:33
  to do. You know what are they going to
• 23:36
  bring ship 24 down to the pad? You know, we believe the Raptors
• 23:42
  are almost installed ship 24. So it could be the next few days
• 23:47
  that all the Raptors installed could be possibly tonight.
• 23:51
  And then since since the booster is going through a lot of tests,
• 23:57
  there's no overpressure warnings quite yet.
• 24:00
  So, we don't think there's going to be a static fire.
• 24:03
  Because I usually do that at least one day before hand before
• 24:07
  the, the static fire test. So we don't think it's going to
• 24:09
  happen this week, but if it's possible for it to happen in the
• 24:14
  next in the next two weeks will, they risk ship 24 down to the
• 24:20
  pad? No.
• 24:21
  Why would they bring ship 24 down there?
• 24:24
  If something were to happen to the booster.
• 24:27
  Booster 7, you know, If something they have a red on the
• 24:32
  pad, something goes horribly wrong.
• 24:37
  And debris hits the ship, you know, they don't know if they're
• 24:42
  going to risk it. I mean it's pretty far away.
• 24:44
  You can you can put a ship down there in a booster down there,
• 24:47
  they're pretty far away, but if it were a catastrophic Rudd,
• 24:51
  It's something were to just everything goes wrong.
• 24:55
  You know, shrapnel everywhere. There's been reports of
• 24:59
  shrapnel, 7 miles away. On the beach.
• 25:06
  Of South Padre Island. From an earlier, I think it was
• 25:11
  maybe a ship eight, maybe eight or nine.
• 25:14
  I can't remember which one it was off the top of my head.
• 25:18
  But there were, there were reports that there was trapped
• 25:20
  null on the beach from one of these rods seven miles away.
• 25:25
  So maybe they should keep it in the bay while they do these the
• 25:29
  static fire, you know what I'm saying?
• 25:31
  Like that makes sense that would make a little bit more sense.
• 25:35
  I'm glad everybody's here today. Thank you so much for the 72
• 25:38
  likes. I really do.
• 25:38
  Appreciate 873 likes that just happened.
• 25:41
  I appreciate all of your support, guys, I really do.
• 25:45
  I've been doing this channel for about three and a half years.
• 25:47
  I had to take a quick break for the last month.
• 25:50
  It kind of slowed down a little bit.
• 25:52
  I've been Bri I moved back up north from Texas from Starbase
• 25:58
  to New York again. I'm taking care of my dad and so
• 26:03
  I had to kind of get everything in line.
• 26:05
  So I appreciate everybody stopping by and hanging out and
• 26:07
  being part of this community because cuz we're growing 88,000
• 26:10
  members or subscribers, I should say not members because that
• 26:13
  would be insane amount of members 88 thousand subscribers.
• 26:19
  And I appreciate every single one of you.
• 26:20
  So if you want to, if you want to support spaceflight
• 26:23
  journalism, independent, spaceflight journalism, I'm a
• 26:27
  solo operation here. Been doing it for three and a
• 26:29
  half years. Like I said, started with
• 26:31
  nothing and you know, have a pretty cool thing going on now.
• 26:35
  So thank you everybody for all that support.
• 26:37
  If you want to support its give it a like.
• 26:39
  That's it, maybe had a sucker up, subscribe button, takes a
• 26:41
  second and also shows YouTube that you're interested in space
• 26:46
  flight content. So thanks everybody for all your
• 26:49
  support, Ron Trader, what's up? How you doing today, man, we are
• 26:54
  in the myths of possible testing today.
• 27:00
  Of. Booster.
• 27:08
  Booster 7. Looks like the taint tag farbe
• 27:22
  right now is spooled up. The roads are closed.
• 27:30
  Looks like they're going to be doing another on be on pressure
• 27:32
  test at this point. There's still cranes at the
• 27:37
  booster though, which is a weird thing, a human crane a human
• 27:48
  lift. usually they bring all those
• 28:01
  things down, while they're doing these tests, they could be doing
• 28:05
  pressure test for something else as well, you know, looks like we
• 28:18
  have some booster. Seven venting as well.
• 28:23
  So it looks like they're doing some pressure test at this
• 28:25
  point. Don't see much cryofreeze don't
• 28:28
  see any cryofreeze actually at this point.
• 28:30
  So I don't think it's going to be cryo Wing right away.
• 28:34
  Could just be a pressure test. like I was saying before, you
• 28:41
  know, these things take time I've seen I've seen boosters
• 28:45
  with my own eyes tested for 34 weeks, just to test the tanks,
• 28:52
  you know, test to test the the pipes, the piping, you know,
• 28:56
  everything from the tank farm that goes to the booster.
• 29:00
  That goes to Launched our launch table.
• 29:06
  It's an impressive, impressive feat of engineering, holy cow.
• 29:11
  You're fantastic run. That's great.
• 29:16
  That's great. I am doing great actually
• 29:20
  Ronnie. I had a had a nice walk for
• 29:23
  lunch, which is pretty cool. And it look nice.
• 29:25
  Lawn chair launch of a walk for lunch.
• 29:27
  I had like a mile-and-a-half walk, which is pretty cool and
• 29:32
  trying to get in shape to. So this is a little side note
• 29:34
  from rocket stuff, but I bought myself a bike because I want to
• 29:39
  get in shape and I enjoy I enjoy fast, scary things.
• 29:47
  So getting them I got a mountain bike.
• 29:48
  Well, it's a trail bike but it has shocks and stuff.
• 29:50
  So yeah, one of those, it's pretty cool.
• 29:53
  So I'm doing great. Thank you, thank you for asking
• 29:55
  tecton. What's up from Sweden?
• 29:57
  Yes. Very cool.
• 30:02
  Very, very cool. Can you imagine the pressure?
• 30:05
  That's going to be on the bottom tank.
• 30:07
  When 33 those things light up. Oh my gosh.
• 30:10
  So that's the other thing. There's so much, there's so much
• 30:14
  going on internally for in Starship.
• 30:20
  That the thing has to has to withstand the highest thrust of
• 30:27
  anything ever that's flown to space.
• 30:32
  So it has to withstand that and the tanks inside.
• 30:36
  Like, all the things inside of it, have to withstand the
• 30:41
  engines pushing it up, you know, is it strong enough to withhold
• 30:46
  that that Force that's going? Yup.
• 30:49
  It's crazy. How much force that's going to
• 30:52
  be? And if it's possible, I mean
• 30:57
  it's going to be an insane. Cool thing to watch.
• 31:00
  I'm going to, I'm going to be there in person.
• 31:02
  I have to be there in person. If I don't get there it's going
• 31:05
  to be the biggest letdown of my life I think.
• 31:08
  Because I spent so much time on this and I got to see this
• 31:12
  launch pad and the SLS launch. I'm planning on an SLS launch
• 31:16
  to. So if you guys want to see that,
• 31:18
  please make sure to give me a like because I'm working on it.
• 31:21
  I'm working on all the logistics.
• 31:24
  We're going to all the logistics.
• 31:25
  Now to get to the SLS launch and we're figuring out where to stay
• 31:29
  figuring out what to do. I know a cool little hotel that
• 31:34
  I really enjoyed staying. At last time I was down there
• 31:36
  for the Star Lake launch. Our the asari the crew to launch
• 31:41
  and I'm going to stay at the hotel again in.
• 31:46
  There's a really cool viewing area that I found this pretty
• 31:49
  neat. So I might I don't know if I can
• 31:51
  camp there but I would rather camp at that place.
• 31:54
  But I don't know if that's a possibility.
• 31:59
  I might just sleep in my car, I don't know.
• 32:01
  I don't know if I can overnight sleep in my car, but I would
• 32:03
  love to sleep in my car depending on when this launch is
• 32:05
  going to be. But the time he's going to be
• 32:09
  for SLS. Is there some test SpaceX has to
• 32:14
  do before they start the static fires of booster number 7?
• 32:20
  Yeah I believe they're going to have to do basically a whole
• 32:23
  battery of tests. Again looking have to do
• 32:25
  everything they did before the engines were installed, I think
• 32:29
  they're going to have to do it again.
• 32:30
  So they're going to do ambient pressure test, they're going to
• 32:31
  do cryo tests and things like that.
• 32:35
  And then they're going to have to of course, to ignite or
• 32:40
  tests. So I think they're going to have
• 32:43
  to do a whole battery of at of testing before they actually do
• 32:46
  the stack fire, booster seven just to make sure all the pipes
• 32:49
  work, just to make sure everything flows properly.
• 32:53
  Anything specific due to the engines, nothing that I know of
• 33:00
  other than the same things that they've done before for other
• 33:02
  static fires, So, basically what I say before cryogenic tests,
• 33:08
  pressure tests, and load tests things like that.
• 33:12
  So I think, I think those were we're looking forward to detect
• 33:15
  them. I think it's going to be those,
• 33:18
  those few tests which could take weeks.
• 33:22
  So Ilan, said, it'll be ready by July.
• 33:25
  And I think what he's saying is look, we have this rocket and I
• 33:29
  believe it's ready to fly. We just have to do the tests.
• 33:33
  So the way he worded it was, It was very easy Lonnie Alanis.
• 33:39
  Esque is a good way, to put Ilan esque seal on time, right?
• 33:44
  So when he says something is ready by July, he think he knows
• 33:50
  that the rocket is ready itself. You know, it's built, it's
• 33:55
  ready. It's going to go to the pad.
• 33:57
  It's going to do some testing but how long were those tests
• 34:00
  take? Cryo proved tests, possibly take
• 34:05
  four days, you know. So that's at least a week of
• 34:09
  cryo tests just for the booster to.
• 34:13
  So, and I'm trying to be realistic with you guys because
• 34:15
  I think I think you deserve it. I think you need somebody, you
• 34:19
  don't need somebody, but I think there should be somebody out
• 34:22
  there that Tells it like it is and tells it how, you know, how
• 34:26
  things will probably will probably happen due to the
• 34:29
  history of things that have happened in the past.
• 34:34
  So I what I think is going to happen is they're going to do.
• 34:39
  Pressure tests because that's what they've done in the past
• 34:42
  the pressure test, after they put the engines on, have to make
• 34:45
  sure every single system works every single system, they have
• 34:49
  to test all the computer systems that talk from the bay where
• 34:57
  they control stuff to the rocket, have to test all that
• 35:00
  stuff. They have to test.
• 35:05
  All the lines from the tank farm the go into a booster.
• 35:10
  Everything it needs to be tested though, it was tested before, it
• 35:14
  needs to be tested again because if something were to happen due
• 35:18
  to a failed test or just something not being tested in
• 35:22
  the right amount of time and something, you know, they just
• 35:25
  didn't check it out, then it could be catastrophic and they
• 35:28
  could read this thing on the pad and that's not a good thing.
• 35:32
  So checking All the piping from the tank farm to the booster.
• 35:39
  Everything every single switch, every single gasket, everything
• 35:42
  has to be checked, maintained and checked again.
• 35:47
  So I think that's going to happen and I think they're going
• 35:50
  to move on from that to a cryo test.
• 35:51
  That may only take a couple days, you know like the the
• 35:54
  ambient pressure test, could only take a couple days that a
• 35:56
  cry or a pressure test last night.
• 36:01
  So today, I believe they're going to be doing the same
• 36:03
  thing. Something similar at least.
• 36:10
  Yeah, so cryo test from last night and then they did some
• 36:14
  venting. So I think what they're going to
• 36:16
  do is I think they're going to do kind of the same test today.
• 36:19
  I think they're going to take the same procedures as they did.
• 36:24
  Yesterday, do it again, just to make sure for redundancy sake.
• 36:30
  And then from there, move on to the next set of tests.
• 36:33
  So right now we have You know, the cryo test that happened last
• 36:38
  night. Pressure tests and then we'll
• 36:43
  move on to a cryo test. Next, and these these tests is
• 36:46
  possible. They find something that's kind
• 36:47
  of a little bit weird with it. With the tests with a booster or
• 36:51
  with any any pipe, anything in between that the thing is
• 36:54
  massive. So in there's just miles of
• 36:57
  cables and pipes down there and the things that you don't see
• 37:01
  the Ground Control Systems. Those things are being tested as
• 37:04
  well. It looks like booster sevens
• 37:07
  venting again right now as we speak during the The.
• 37:12
  I believe it's a pressure, test is happening right now some sort
• 37:14
  of cry or a pressure test but they're loading cryogenic Fuel
• 37:20
  and pressure pressurizing. So I think what's going to
• 37:24
  happen next is a cryo test, a full full booster cryo test.
• 37:28
  If to make sure that works, they may do a few of those in that
• 37:31
  may take a week, possibly two Possibly too.
• 37:36
  I always say possibly too because if something is a little
• 37:39
  bit off during the first one, like if there's any sort of
• 37:41
  anomaly, they have to check it. And they have to make sure that
• 37:44
  they figure it out. And these people are working
• 37:46
  24/7. So they have Crews there all the
• 37:50
  time. You know, all the time.
• 37:55
  So there's people literally I went there at 3:00 in the
• 37:59
  morning, one night, just to see what it was like to be there at
• 38:01
  3:00 in the morning and I was just I was alone on the side of
• 38:05
  the road and I had my camera and I was filming a little bit and I
• 38:10
  was like you know I'm going to put my camera away, this is just
• 38:14
  good. Like I just want to be here and
• 38:17
  I want to be in the moment. I don't want to do any work, you
• 38:19
  know. It's like I come down here every
• 38:21
  day and I do it as a, you know, as a As a job.
• 38:26
  I guess, that a job. I love to do it.
• 38:27
  So it wouldn't seem like a test or like a job, but I would come
• 38:31
  down there every day and would film and stuff.
• 38:34
  It was like, 3:00 in the morning and I just hung out for a while,
• 38:37
  but there were people in and out of there all the time, there's
• 38:41
  photographers there all the time, there's robots filming all
• 38:44
  the time. So, There's people constantly
• 38:50
  moving in and out of this place and it's really cool.
• 38:53
  It's really cool to see. But if they do pressure test
• 39:00
  this week, if they get them done today's Tuesday.
• 39:03
  So it's a possibility that they could get all their pressure
• 39:07
  test done by the 1st of July or all their.
• 39:11
  Yeah, all the pressure tests. All the load tests done by the
• 39:13
  1st of July, if they rush through it, I mean there's Some
• 39:18
  road closures coming up. Like I was saying before there's
• 39:20
  some road closures for testing Wednesday, Thursday.
• 39:26
  Then if they get this done by Thursday, does it possible
• 39:30
  closure on Thursday the primary date but then they have from
• 39:33
  Thursday until July 5th. So, June 30th to July 5th.
• 39:39
  There's not going to be any testing because there's no road
• 39:41
  closures. As far as we know, they may
• 39:45
  change that, but I think what's going to happen is, you know,
• 39:48
  there's such a life for thing going on.
• 39:50
  There's like, you know, people are going to be partying, it's a
• 39:52
  whole thing. But also around this time is
• 39:55
  when Boca Chica Beach gets very busy because of the Fourth of
• 39:59
  July people are on vacation. So people go to Boca Chica Beach
• 40:04
  to be at the beach in. There's a possibility that the
• 40:06
  Elan and SpaceX worked with Cameron County.
• 40:11
  To not have any testing going on between June 30th in July 5th,
• 40:15
  for the Fourth of July holiday. So if they don't get testing
• 40:20
  done the 30th of this month, they're going to have to wait
• 40:25
  about a week till July 4th 5th for all this stuff.
• 40:30
  Yeah, it's going to be, it's going to be little bit, it's
• 40:34
  going to be a little bit but then they have to know they have
• 40:36
  to do pressure test. They have to do protest.
• 40:38
  Like I said before then they have Do that same sort of thing
• 40:43
  with ship as well but I don't think we're going to get a
• 40:46
  static fire until later in July and I don't I don't know when
• 40:54
  that's going to be. I wish I had a timeline for your
• 40:56
  everybody here but I think it's going to be later.
• 41:01
  Passed the 15th of July for either ignite and like an
• 41:05
  ignition tests first and then a static fire of a few engines.
• 41:11
  And then they're going to I think they're going to ramp it
• 41:13
  up from there and then start going Buck Wild after they have
• 41:17
  all the all the cryo tests and stuff done.
• 41:19
  So in and out says what's the current thinking on Starships
• 41:25
  earlier commercial missions? Starlink government Etc.
• 41:30
  There's a whole whole video I did about Starship and the
• 41:36
  Department of Defense the other day.
• 41:38
  It's like a 10-minute 13-minute video or something.
• 41:40
  Check that out. If you're interested in the
• 41:42
  Department of Defense and Starship, because the Department
• 41:46
  of Defense is really interested in Starship, for numerous
• 41:49
  reasons. Mainly because it can transport
• 41:53
  things across the world in like an hour, you know?
• 41:57
  So whether it's tanks, whether it's, you know, anything the
• 42:01
  size of a bus Starship can be configured to transport them.
• 42:08
  So if you think about humanitarian Aid, Department of
• 42:11
  Defense stuff can bring in supplies to.
• 42:17
  You Know, Two Soldiers to people peacekeeping soldiers across the
• 42:21
  world in an hour or two and 737s or like a big, a big plane would
• 42:27
  take all day to get there, you know?
• 42:30
  So it's possible that they could use a Starship for those kind of
• 42:34
  things and deploy land either land a Starship or is this going
• 42:40
  to be possible. So I thought about this too and
• 42:42
  there's this is a wild sci-fi thing. and if you think about
• 42:45
  this for a second, this might be might be an interesting way to
• 42:49
  deploy not troops, because I think it'd be too much for
• 42:54
  troops, but a way to deploy supplies And this is this is
• 42:59
  crazy if you think about it, but think about Starship getting to
• 43:03
  orbit. But you know how there's the
• 43:05
  configuration for Starship where the lid pops up and opens and
• 43:12
  see. Davis, thank you so much for
• 43:14
  that. August 26, launch date.
• 43:17
  Three dollar. Super Chat.
• 43:18
  Thank you so much for that over under August 26.
• 43:23
  Launch date. I think it's going to be after
• 43:25
  August 26th. Sometime after.
• 43:30
  Sometime after. But think about this and see
• 43:37
  Davis, thanks again for that. I really do appreciate that.
• 43:39
  That keeps the channel going, and if you want to keep the
• 43:42
  channel going and if you want to have conversations like this, if
• 43:45
  you don't want a super chat, if you can't Super Chat, give a
• 43:48
  thumbs up. Give a like to the video, really
• 43:51
  helps out a ton shows YouTube that you're interested in
• 43:53
  Starship, content and shows YouTube, that you're interested
• 43:56
  and hanging out here. So thank you, I really do
• 43:59
  appreciate you and let's get back on topic here.
• 44:02
  Let's talk about the department of Let's think about this for a
• 44:04
  second. What if you have to have a huge
• 44:09
  amount of things that you have to transport across the Earth in
• 44:12
  a rapid amount of time? You know, it needs to be there
• 44:16
  within a day and a half and you have to load it into a Starship,
• 44:21
  everything has to be in there and you have to land it within a
• 44:24
  day and a half or something horrible happens.
• 44:27
  Wherever you know, whatever it could be scenario, Starship
• 44:31
  launches to orbit. And the front of Starship, the
• 44:36
  flip-top. If I don't know if you seen the
• 44:38
  videos on SpaceX is website, those animations of like the the
• 44:43
  flood the front of this thing opening up to deploy satellites
• 44:46
  excetera It's possible that they could deploy supplies in some
• 44:52
  sort of container with a parachute with star bricks on
• 44:58
  the bottom of it and it could enter the atmosphere in land
• 45:02
  sort of like they do with a crewed mission, they could land
• 45:06
  in the ocean. They could come and get it.
• 45:08
  You know, they could go get it or they can land on land.
• 45:10
  Like they do with some With some human missions.
• 45:15
  So is that a possibility? I think the Department of
• 45:20
  Defense is interested in something like that too, because
• 45:22
  it would only take hours to get across the Earth, you know, as
• 45:25
  opposed to, you know, three, four days.
• 45:28
  So, I think the Department of Defense is very interested in
• 45:31
  Starship because if you could deploy that much gear.
• 45:36
  So rapidly instead of the supply chain of from Base to Base to
• 45:41
  Base across the Earth, if it's just luck.
• 45:43
  We got one giant Base in Texas or wherever and we want to
• 45:48
  launch star ships from there or you know, Florida wherever
• 45:53
  there's a possibility that the space force could launch
• 45:56
  starships as a war machine. So think about that for a
• 46:03
  second. How how interesting is that as a
• 46:06
  as a way to transport Goods. Not only just for war but also
• 46:10
  if something happens if there's a flood or if there's a disaster
• 46:15
  of some sort of an earthquake and you need tons and tons of
• 46:18
  cargo to get there, immediately, food and water and supplies to
• 46:22
  keep these people alive. Send a Starship full.
• 46:26
  You know, send a full Starship of goodies to those people.
• 46:31
  Take a, take a couple hours, you know, as opposed to a day, you
• 46:36
  know, and people's lives get saved because you're sending
• 46:39
  that so fast. So there's a, there's a
• 46:42
  possibility. Now starlink?
• 46:43
  Yeah, send it up there, as soon as possible.
• 46:48
  I think the first Starship mission I think there might try
• 46:54
  a starlink deployment if all goes well but it's not
• 46:58
  guaranteed you know. So there's a possibility that
• 47:02
  they do a Starship deployment. I'm not sure.
• 47:04
  I'm not sure or a star like deployment I'm not sure.
• 47:07
  I hope they do. I think that'd be pretty
• 47:09
  interesting. We all saw the, we all saw the
• 47:12
  Pez dispenser. On elon's tweet there.
• 47:18
  So it looks like it's possible looks like they're into it, you
• 47:20
  know. Tecton says, Starship or SLS
• 47:28
  launch first talked about this a little bit earlier.
• 47:31
  I'm going SLS. I'm going to SLS.
• 47:36
  Now, because I don't like Starship because I love
• 47:37
  Starship. But I think SLS is further
• 47:42
  along. There's not much left to do on
• 47:45
  SLS before. Before they can launch it, you
• 47:49
  know, they're just taking it back into the Vehicle, Assembly
• 47:51
  Bay, and then bring it back out basically.
• 47:56
  Late August. August 23rd, July 26, through
• 48:02
  August 10th is one of the launch opportunities, but I think
• 48:04
  they're going to do August 23rd, through September 6, those those
• 48:07
  opportunities. Here's your freedom package.
• 48:11
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think they're going to
• 48:13
  need a Starship for that attack. Then I think they're going to
• 48:16
  need like I think they already have that covered.
• 48:28
  Well, if they connect, 33, Raptors directly to the tank
• 48:30
  farm, that's a good. That's a, that's a good
• 48:36
  question. I don't know, to be honest with
• 48:37
  you. I do, they need to set up an
• 48:42
  overpressure warning when they test the igniters.
• 48:45
  I don't believe so because they did one the other day.
• 48:49
  They didn't igniter test the other day and I was just late at
• 48:51
  night. It was just a quick there's no
• 48:53
  fuel. They just test the igniter.
• 48:55
  So I don't think there's no no reason to have a pressure
• 48:59
  warning so I think if they're going to do a another igniter
• 49:05
  test, it'll just be a quick chunk chunk chunk and then it's
• 49:08
  done. Now we're in 97 likes three
• 49:21
  more, we hit 100, I would love that.
• 49:24
  That would be really, really helpful for the channel.
• 49:25
  Really helpful for me to continue doing coverage like
• 49:28
  this about Starship. And the continuing progression
• 49:34
  of SpaceX down in Boca Chica Beach at Starbase Texas.
• 49:45
  Possible closures road closures, coming up meeting possible
• 49:48
  tests, coming up, June 29th, June 30th, July 5th, and July
• 49:53
  6th. If they get done, what they need
• 50:00
  to get done today, possibly no testing tomorrow and then
• 50:05
  they'll move on to Thursday, June 30th.
• 50:19
  Again, thank you so much for all the Lakes, it's really helpful.
• 50:22
  I mean, they're the free they take a second and thanks to all
• 50:26
  the new subscribers today to. Thank you so much for everybody
• 50:28
  who's helped out. And Deb Hall.
• 50:32
  Thanks for the super chant and, and see Davis.
• 50:35
  Thanks for the Super Chat as well.
• 50:36
  Appreciate you. Very happy to be here.
• 50:41
  If you have any questions, make sure to chat them up.
• 50:45
  How many KFC Wings could you launch to my backyard?
• 50:47
  I'm sorry, not enough, and not enough screaming in my basement.
• 50:53
  Hey, I have heard Ilan has done some things.
• 50:55
  I know he's not perfect, but do you think he's not a bad guy?
• 50:58
  I don't believe that that flight attendant thing because there
• 51:01
  was no evidence as of, I know, so anything like that, like the
• 51:06
  flight attendant stuff, I don't know anything.
• 51:08
  Like I don't know, personally, anything about it.
• 51:10
  So I can't really talk about it. I can't speak on it because I
• 51:13
  wasn't there basically. Ali.
• 51:15
  So so here's my take on Ilan. If you guys want to know my
• 51:21
  honest answer about Elam. We made 100 like so thank you
• 51:24
  before I get in that. Thank you so much for everybody.
• 51:26
  Who's like the video today, like the stream commentary will
• 51:29
  continue. And I still doing pressure
• 51:33
  testing, and loading up some stuff right now on booster 700
• 51:39
  likes. Wow, that's so cool.
• 51:41
  Thank you everybody. So here's the here's the thing
• 51:46
  about Elon Elon is a force of nature.
• 51:51
  Ilan is unlike anybody else out there right now, he's very
• 51:55
  driven, he works constantly. He like, you know, there's
• 52:00
  there's times where he said he's slept on the floor at SpaceX, he
• 52:04
  slept on the floor, it at Tesla to get things done, you know, he
• 52:08
  knew that he had, he only had x amount of time to get things
• 52:12
  done and if he slept on the floor, then he could get those
• 52:15
  things done. So There was a, you know there's
• 52:20
  a couple articles written about Elon that were saying you know
• 52:25
  the he's a horrible human being. There's all sorts of all sorts
• 52:28
  of things like that coming out of it, against him, tons of
• 52:30
  smear articles smear campaigns against him.
• 52:34
  Of course, people click on them, it makes you have to think about
• 52:37
  the motivation for those people too.
• 52:40
  You click on a headline because you're like, oh I'm so mad.
• 52:43
  You know, why do you think social media exists?
• 52:45
  It doesn't exist anymore. In the pure form that it used to
• 52:49
  be social media used to be about sharing ideas.
• 52:52
  The internet used to be about sharing ideas information and,
• 52:57
  you know, just like papers newspapers and news Channels
• 53:02
  used to do all the time. There is, you know, extra extra,
• 53:06
  read all about it. You've heard that saying before.
• 53:08
  Hopefully these people would say that, you know, the the Newsboys
• 53:14
  would say that because they had to get your attention, they were
• 53:17
  trying to sell a paper and the more outlandish, the headlines
• 53:20
  were the more you would buy that paper in the more money that
• 53:24
  that paper would make a news Outlet.
• 53:26
  So I'm trying to make these big headlines their make these
• 53:30
  outrageous claims And people do that all the time with with
• 53:35
  people in the public eye, you know, you seen it about
• 53:40
  everything like the the Johnny Depp Amber Heard thing.
• 53:43
  Like there were so many negative articles about both of them into
• 53:48
  smear campaigns for both of them and it's like they're those
• 53:54
  papers don't care like the the news, our Outlets don't care
• 53:57
  about that story, they just care about the clicks that go to
• 54:01
  their site. Because every click the comes
• 54:03
  through every tent, every one thousand clicks that come
• 54:06
  through, they make $12, or whatever, you know, whatever it
• 54:08
  is. So they're CPM possibly is
• 54:11
  pretty high. If they get in, if they get
• 54:12
  millions of views per day to one of those articles, they're
• 54:16
  making bank, man, they're making bank, they're paying, they're
• 54:19
  putting people on payroll, they're given the executives
• 54:21
  raises, they're making tons of money.
• 54:24
  So, the thing, the negative things about Ilan, I'm always
• 54:27
  kind of hesitant to believe any of them until they're proven
• 54:31
  positive. Positive.
• 54:33
  You know if somebody somebody comes out with a claim about
• 54:35
  deal and I'm just going to wait till it kind of they figure it
• 54:39
  out. And then once they do figure it
• 54:42
  out, then I'll be like, oh yeah, that happened.
• 54:45
  But I can't really say anything about him as a person.
• 54:48
  He seems like he's an okay dude like I would hang out with them.
• 54:52
  I feel like an idiot because he's super smart.
• 54:55
  I'm saying like I couldn't even, I could probably carry on a
• 54:58
  little conversation with him about Rockets, but my
• 55:00
  conversation to him would be like, hey, dude, how cool is it?
• 55:05
  That you have a giant rocket? Like how cool is it?
• 55:08
  That we're going to go to Mars someday.
• 55:10
  Like people are going to go to Mars.
• 55:11
  That's pretty sweet, right? Like that's my conversation with
• 55:14
  Elon and then he'd be like, yeah, you know, he'd probably
• 55:17
  look at me like an idiot. It's be like, all right.
• 55:21
  All right man, this is not cool that I would just feel so weird.
• 55:24
  Like I'm awkward anyway, like in, you know, In social
• 55:30
  situations, I'm pretty awkward. So being in an awkward
• 55:33
  conversation with another awkward person, you know it's
• 55:36
  pretty awkward but not knowing the things that he knows and
• 55:41
  being you know in a conversation with somebody pretty much the
• 55:45
  most powerful person on Earth. That's not a leader of a
• 55:49
  country. It would be it would be
• 55:55
  intimidating, but I think I would shake his hand, you know,
• 55:58
  like if I met him and I would shake his hand and say, hey,
• 56:01
  thanks for doing what you're doing.
• 56:02
  I think it's pretty cool. Can I get a selfie?
• 56:08
  That's pretty much it. I feel like a kind of get us.
• 56:09
  I think it was pretty cool to get a selfie and then that's all
• 56:14
  that as far as we go. But as a person, I don't know.
• 56:17
  Like, I don't know how he is, he has a bunch of Different
• 56:20
  personas, he has his, you know, we're going to Mars.
• 56:26
  And we're doing all the cool things to go to Mars.
• 56:28
  Everything's cool. And then you know there's the
• 56:33
  other part of him that's like we're going to fire people.
• 56:37
  If they don't come to work 40 hours a week, like these are the
• 56:40
  rules of the company and if you don't abide by those rules, you
• 56:42
  get fired but that's exactly how every other company works.
• 56:48
  You know what I'm saying? Like it doesn't make any sense
• 56:51
  because and that was just recently, that Ilan said that
• 56:54
  about SpaceX and about Tesla. It's like, hey, you got to be in
• 56:56
  your office 40 hours a week. It's like, yeah.
• 56:59
  If I was working at any other company and they said that, I'd
• 57:02
  be like, oh yeah I don't want to lose my job like I'm going, I'm
• 57:07
  going to work, you know, I'm not going to be a baby about it.
• 57:11
  Like, dude, I got this cool opportunity to be part of the
• 57:14
  future of humanity. Of course, I'm going to go back
• 57:17
  to work. I kind of like the office.
• 57:20
  It makes me feel less awkward because I'm around people and I
• 57:22
  get used to people, so it's kind of nice to be in an office, but
• 57:27
  also some people were kind of, you know, the lead engineers and
• 57:31
  stuff for like, how you actually get more done when I'm working
• 57:33
  at home. Why can't I work at home?
• 57:36
  Which totally makes sense because I'm the same way.
• 57:38
  If I go into an office, there's all sorts of other distractions.
• 57:40
  People come over your desk all day.
• 57:42
  You know, they tap me on the shoulder and go, hey, can you be
• 57:44
  talk real quick about something and then they put you in a
• 57:47
  meeting for like 30. Minutes, when the meeting could
• 57:50
  have just been a text or a chat? Yeah, those kind of things
• 57:53
  happen and then you're like, what.
• 57:54
  So now I got to stay an extra 30 minutes to make up the work that
• 57:59
  because you don't know how to communicate.
• 58:01
  I have to go into an office with you.
• 58:04
  So I can understand why people would be upset about that
• 58:08
  because I kind of would be too to be honest with you.
• 58:14
  Yeah. What if the only reason Elon is
• 58:15
  making space S is to talk with alien friends from Alpha. a
• 58:18
  century, it's possible, you know, it's possible that we
• 58:21
  could eventually see Communication with aliens.
• 58:26
  I mean, I don't put it out of the realm of possibilities.
• 58:29
  I mean, is this a possibility of all that stuff is there?
• 58:34
  Proof though, did it at edit. Edit, edit edit edit.
• 58:39
  That's the X-Files theme song by the way.
• 58:43
  I don't know. I don't know.
• 58:46
  So we'll see what happens. I mean is it possible that star
• 58:48
  ship could launch something towards Alpha Century?
• 58:51
  Yeah, totally Is Starship going to make it to alphas and Sheree?
• 58:56
  That would be sweet. That would be really, really
• 58:58
  cool. If that were to happen.
• 59:00
  If we were to launch a full Starship, Alpha Centauri, it
• 59:03
  would take a while to get there. I think it's what a hundred
• 59:04
  light years away or something. Or is it?
• 59:06
  It's not that far, right? How many light years and years
• 59:10
  is Alpha sin Cherie? So it's only four point three,
• 59:17
  six, seven light years away. How long would that take?
• 59:22
  How long long to gets to Alpha Centauri?
• 59:32
  It's 40 trillion kilometers away.
• 59:34
  The fastest spacecraft ever. Launched NASA's German Helios
• 59:37
  probes. Troubled, 250 thousand
• 59:39
  kilometers per hour at that speed.
• 59:40
  It takes what take the probe 18,000 years.
• 59:45
  If he's used a Starship to get to Elvis Century to talk to his
• 59:49
  buddies. He loves going to be really old
• 59:52
  by the time he gets there, he needs to go home 18000 years.
• 1:00:02
  Holy cow. That's insane.
• 1:00:06
  That's so much time that summer time.
• 1:00:09
  I'm like, man, what am I gonna do next Tuesday?
• 1:00:11
  You know, that's, that's kind of the thinking for humans.
• 1:00:13
  So, you know, we don't really think thousands of years into
• 1:00:16
  the future, like, what's going to happen a hundred years from
• 1:00:18
  now? You know, we're probably going
• 1:00:22
  to have a space Colony somewhere in 100 years, probably going to
• 1:00:25
  have a moon Colony, you know, the technology for Humanity,
• 1:00:31
  just went crazy. Once we got What's this new
• 1:00:37
  technology age computers and stuff started happening.
• 1:00:40
  Looks like there's Road as people on the road driving past.
• 1:00:47
  The launch site right now, a bunch of people.
• 1:00:49
  Actually, I just saw four cars passing the launch site IRL in
• 1:00:54
  real time. So testing may be done.
• 1:00:58
  Let me check my road closures. I don't see that the road
• 1:01:09
  closures have stopped, but it looks like the there have been
• 1:01:12
  Vehicles. Three, vehicles, just passed by
• 1:01:14
  the went down to the launch site.
• 1:01:18
  Interesting. If we see more Vehicles means
• 1:01:22
  that the road is open again, I haven't gotten a notice yet, I
• 1:01:27
  have the notices on my phone, then if the road opens back up.
• 1:01:36
  The eighteen thousand years. Come on man.
• 1:01:41
  What are the current trendy style points for space rocks
• 1:01:45
  that you might see on the rocket fashion show.
• 1:01:47
  Oh, that's a good one. I know, I think sleek and
• 1:01:52
  slender curves also. I think they're, I think the
• 1:01:57
  trending fashion is steel. We're looking at steel now for
• 1:02:01
  this, for the season and possibly, we're looking for
• 1:02:06
  maybe a bigger, a bigger style, you know, something a little bit
• 1:02:09
  more boisterous than last season, we're looking at things
• 1:02:13
  that are taller, looking at things that are wider rounder.
• 1:02:18
  So I think during this next, this next cycle for Rockets
• 1:02:21
  things are just going to get big.
• 1:02:27
  Each astronaut says road is an open just workers to pad for
• 1:02:29
  something. That's what I was hoping,
• 1:02:32
  because I'm really want this to continue.
• 1:02:35
  I want this testing to continue. Think of humanity goes extinct.
• 1:02:44
  Now I'd honestly be not that sad about it.
• 1:02:46
  We have already accomplished so many things as a species, but
• 1:02:49
  screaming in my basement. How much more could be do?
• 1:02:53
  Fear of missing out? How much more could we do?
• 1:02:57
  Like we had such little time here where you're just a blip
• 1:03:01
  like nobody's even going to Care like once humanity.
• 1:03:04
  And like this is a sad thing. This is a very sad thing to
• 1:03:07
  think about this for a second. It's your me in my basement.
• 1:03:09
  This is why every day I wake up and I go I'm gonna do something
• 1:03:12
  that I've never done before, or something that I need to
• 1:03:15
  accomplish, because I don't have much time.
• 1:03:17
  I have 70 years. Maybe, if I get lucky, I have 70
• 1:03:20
  years. Who knows, who absolutely knows.
• 1:03:23
  Nobody knows. How much time they have here,
• 1:03:26
  but how much time does Humanity have?
• 1:03:29
  We don't know you know there's a possibility and asteroid could
• 1:03:32
  hit us whatever. So we haven't done much in we
• 1:03:39
  could do more. So the thing is if Elon is
• 1:03:42
  correct and something does happen.
• 1:03:49
  You know, we need to get out to the Stars, we need to get away
• 1:03:52
  because if something were to happen, like we need to have
• 1:03:55
  Consciousness, we have to have Humanity.
• 1:04:00
  Someplace else, so we can continue, you know.
• 1:04:07
  And if we're literally, the only beings that have ever
• 1:04:11
  experienced Consciousness like this in the way that we build,
• 1:04:16
  you know, we're kind of parasites, we take out of the
• 1:04:18
  resources from the earth, or from our planet, or whatever
• 1:04:22
  plan. We're going to.
• 1:04:23
  And we're going to take it. We're going to build.
• 1:04:25
  We're going to take it. We're going to build.
• 1:04:26
  We can take it. We're going to get ready to go
• 1:04:27
  to an asteroid can take those asteroids.
• 1:04:29
  We're going to chop them up. We're going to build something
• 1:04:33
  with them. Go to the moon, in sit, you moon
• 1:04:36
  base using the resources of the Moon.
• 1:04:38
  We're going to make a moon base. So, I think there's so much more
• 1:04:46
  we can accomplish. I don't think I'd be happy.
• 1:04:50
  You know, in the next 100 years from now, imagine imagine a
• 1:04:53
  hundred years ago. You know, in the 1800's people
• 1:04:57
  were still savages People were still savages.
• 1:05:02
  They're fighting with swords. They fighting with Spears and
• 1:05:05
  swords, and like bows. And 1700s, you know it's 1500s
• 1:05:14
  things like that. Like Medieval Times, think about
• 1:05:16
  how crazy it's been just in the last hundred years, what's
• 1:05:20
  happened? And if we can do that, sort of
• 1:05:24
  leap from like the Industrial Age to the computer age, and
• 1:05:31
  eventually we'll get to the next stage, whatever, that's going to
• 1:05:33
  be, it might be, it might take us a hundred years.
• 1:05:35
  It might take 400 years, 500 years, 1000 Years, depending on,
• 1:05:40
  you know, how fast we advance, but it's going to be crazy in
• 1:05:45
  the next, even in the next year or two to see these Rockets
• 1:05:48
  launch, because that's literally the next phase, Phase of human
• 1:05:52
  evolution. This is the this is the
• 1:05:56
  beginning because we're going to start sending people to other
• 1:05:59
  planets and when we send those people to other planets they're
• 1:06:04
  not going to be humans anymore. They're not going to be the same
• 1:06:06
  human as humans were on earth eventually they're going to
• 1:06:11
  eventually. Become something else.
• 1:06:16
  This is my sci-fi brain going to work here.
• 1:06:20
  Is that you know will adapt will overcome?
• 1:06:23
  We always have. We always will just I don't know
• 1:06:28
  before medicine people used to die when they're like 20 years
• 1:06:32
  old people used to die with our ten all the time because you get
• 1:06:36
  a cut and then you die. He stubbed your toe, get a
• 1:06:39
  broken foot, you can't run, so you can't run away from a tiger
• 1:06:41
  or whatever. He died, not like that anymore.
• 1:06:48
  We figure things out. You got a cut on your hand.
• 1:06:53
  You're like, oh well that's not good, whatever.
• 1:06:57
  I still have to hunt, I still have to pick berries, I still
• 1:06:59
  have to forage, I still have to survive.
• 1:07:01
  So those people are not the same people as us, they're not living
• 1:07:07
  the same life and people hundred years from now.
• 1:07:09
  They're not going to be living the same life that we live
• 1:07:11
  because they're going to be something else than us going to
• 1:07:14
  have technology. That's absolutely.
• 1:07:18
  We won't even understand what it's going to be like it's like
• 1:07:21
  Like when I talk to my dad, he's 82 years old, I tell him things
• 1:07:26
  about my phone, like I have GPS on my phone, he doesn't know
• 1:07:28
  what GPS is. He doesn't understand it and I'm
• 1:07:32
  like yeah there's a map on my phone and as I'm driving My
• 1:07:38
  phone knows exactly where I am. And what the road looks like.
• 1:07:44
  And if there's traffic ahead, or if there's construction ahead,
• 1:07:47
  or if they're cops ahead, or if there's something going on, my
• 1:07:51
  phone knows this in the people that were the generations before
• 1:07:54
  us. You know they don't know these
• 1:07:58
  things you know my dad. He's from a different generation
• 1:08:01
  where you could buy a house when you're 20 years old on your part
• 1:08:04
  time job. You know, you can't do that
• 1:08:07
  anymore. If a part-time job, you're
• 1:08:08
  barely living. You'll never buy a house.
• 1:08:15
  If you have a part-time job, you have to have a full-time job and
• 1:08:18
  even then you're going to the massive debt to buy a house.
• 1:08:22
  So, he thinks if you're not married with kids, the house
• 1:08:26
  with a house at like 30 then, like you're doing it wrong.
• 1:08:29
  It's like, no, dude. It's just different now, you
• 1:08:32
  know, like that's pretty cool as need to find the person, you
• 1:08:35
  know, your person but it's different though.
• 1:08:40
  And the technology that we move forward with, you know, whether
• 1:08:43
  it's something better than our cell phones now, which is, you
• 1:08:47
  know, we think about it sometimes as this is like the
• 1:08:51
  new iPhone, you know, it's going to be lighter, it's going to be
• 1:08:55
  better. It's going to be faster.
• 1:08:57
  It's but that's just iterative the first iPhone is not that
• 1:09:01
  good anymore. It's horrible.
• 1:09:05
  That wasn't that long ago, I'm it's only Iphone 13 at this
• 1:09:08
  point, imagine the iPhone 200 you know what's that going to be
• 1:09:12
  like? What are the Apple?
• 1:09:14
  A our glass is going to be like how much is that going to change
• 1:09:16
  us? You know, those kind of things,
• 1:09:20
  you know, is is are humans going to be part of technology and we
• 1:09:26
  kind of are already. We're in the free baby stages of
• 1:09:30
  being part of technology in technology being part of us.
• 1:09:34
  We Carry our phones everywhere, we have a smart watches, we have
• 1:09:38
  headphones with no cords anymore.
• 1:09:40
  No cables. So going to going to the you
• 1:09:46
  know, going to outer space and having other people that are not
• 1:09:50
  human anymore, that's the future.
• 1:09:54
  And that's a that's a couple hundred years down the line it's
• 1:09:59
  possible and this is where we literally watching it happen
• 1:10:03
  right now. We're Of this, it's crazy.
• 1:10:07
  The Apollo missions. We thought that was going to be
• 1:10:10
  where we start. You know, sending people out to
• 1:10:13
  space have moon bases and it kind of was, you know, it showed
• 1:10:17
  people that as possible, you know, it's possible that we can
• 1:10:20
  go to the Stars. We can reach the moon but that's
• 1:10:23
  just literally the next stop, you know, that's a, that's a gas
• 1:10:27
  station, you know? If that's down the street,
• 1:10:30
  you're like oh I got to go out of town so I'm going to get gas
• 1:10:32
  before I go out of town. So you stop at that gas station.
• 1:10:36
  or charge your car, whatever, you know, whatever you have an
• 1:10:38
  Eevee So if you'll up, and then you go someplace else, you go
• 1:10:45
  far, far away right now you drive five hours.
• 1:10:47
  That's a long road trip. It's a pretty good road trip,
• 1:10:50
  but if you do a five day road trip, that's pretty far that's
• 1:10:56
  across like halfway across the United States.
• 1:11:00
  If it was 7 or 8 days, there you go, you made it to California
• 1:11:03
  from New York. But in the future we're going to
• 1:11:08
  be like, oh yeah, you got to go to Alpha, Centauri cool.
• 1:11:12
  Well, let's Bend some space time and let's let's see what happens
• 1:11:17
  or might not even send people there.
• 1:11:21
  That's where. VR and AR and probes, you know,
• 1:11:26
  robots go, the robots, go to a place, they map the place and,
• 1:11:33
  you know, we have real-time weather, we have real-time,
• 1:11:36
  whatever, you know, we have real-time pressure, real-time
• 1:11:39
  weather Etc, but we never send a person there.
• 1:11:43
  We just send light, we send information to their so we can
• 1:11:49
  kind of be man like Star Trek but not our actual bodies.
• 1:11:53
  Him again, but a replica or some sort, some sort of hologram, but
• 1:11:58
  we can feel like we're there because we have our VR goggles
• 1:12:00
  on. You know, we have our VR life
• 1:12:03
  and you could walk around on the moon, you can walk around on
• 1:12:06
  mars or wherever you want to go, but we'd have to send probes
• 1:12:10
  there first. So this is the beginning of all
• 1:12:13
  that stuff. This is like forward, think
• 1:12:16
  elon's thinking forward because he's like man, we got to get off
• 1:12:18
  this planet. We got to get far far away
• 1:12:21
  because if something happens to this planet, At least we have a
• 1:12:24
  backup. The redundancy that we all
• 1:12:27
  learned is really good. Backup, your stuff to the cloud.
• 1:12:32
  But instead of backing your stuff up to the cloud, you're
• 1:12:34
  backing Humanity up past the clouds, pass the atmosphere pass
• 1:12:40
  Earth gravity well and further off into the solar system and
• 1:12:44
  then a further off into the Galaxy.
• 1:12:48
  It's possibility in the next hundreds of years, that happens.
• 1:12:53
  And then we get to the moon, the hls program in the early 2030s,
• 1:13:01
  you know, we may have a base taking a look at Artemis.
• 1:13:07
  The Artemis timeline here, Does the Gateway?
• 1:13:14
  Habitat launching in 2027 lunar surface, Landing for Artemus
• 1:13:20
  three possible in 2026. Maybe maybe 20 30 more like it
• 1:13:29
  probably than 20 31, a lock for the Gateway, things like that
• 1:13:34
  and then we eventually land and start building on the moon,
• 1:13:38
  pretty crazy. It's, it's, there's a lot of
• 1:13:41
  things to think about. Tecton says, where would we be
• 1:13:47
  today if Industrial Revolution happened during the Roman
• 1:13:50
  Empire? Instead of it collapsing.
• 1:13:52
  Yeah. And think about all the
• 1:13:55
  civilizations that could have been, you know, because everyone
• 1:14:00
  was at War, it seems like everybody just wanted to fight
• 1:14:02
  all the time back then. Didn't it?
• 1:14:04
  Like the only thing you think about the only thing you really
• 1:14:06
  read about and the history lessons from that from those
• 1:14:10
  times were this place concert conquer.
• 1:14:13
  This place then this place conquer this place and it's
• 1:14:16
  like, but what else happened? Like, you know, there's, there's
• 1:14:19
  science that happened, there's technology that happen.
• 1:14:27
  All the fun stuff. Hello, from Brevard County,
• 1:14:30
  Florida John. I will be in Florida for the SLS
• 1:14:34
  launch. So, if you're gonna be at the
• 1:14:37
  answer launch launch, SLS launch would be cool to give you a high
• 1:14:40
  five or a bumpy knucks would be cool.
• 1:14:44
  Would be cool to hang out. We're trying to get a crew
• 1:14:48
  together. We're going to try to work with
• 1:14:50
  a couple of other YouTubers. Try to get a crew together for
• 1:14:52
  the SLS launch, so we can have some parties and stuff, I think
• 1:14:54
  it'd be really fun. I know Debs, we talked about
• 1:14:57
  this a long long time ago when Artemis was just the beginning
• 1:15:01
  thing in when I was going to go to Florida, we were just like,
• 1:15:03
  hey, let's go get a burger at this burger joint.
• 1:15:06
  Have a party man. I think that'd be really fun.
• 1:15:12
  Text answers. I heard about a theoretical
• 1:15:14
  method to send information somewhere instantly without the
• 1:15:16
  Restriction of the speed of light.
• 1:15:18
  This some scientist found out. Whoo, Hmm.
• 1:15:26
  I even think if you could send information to the speed of
• 1:15:29
  light to the Stars, you know, anywhere in the starts, like if
• 1:15:32
  you only have to go, if you only have the send information, it
• 1:15:35
  would kind of, you know, it's a long time even going to Alpha
• 1:15:42
  Century four and a half years or so light years.
• 1:15:47
  What's the difference between, you know, if theoretically, you
• 1:15:50
  can go faster than the speed of light?
• 1:15:53
  If they figure that out, then Bow by Einstein, this is a whole
• 1:15:56
  new thing. I mean the, you know, the
• 1:16:01
  instant transportation of what's it called.
• 1:16:09
  I can't remember what it's called.
• 1:16:11
  Why can't I think about it? I keep thinking Nano something,
• 1:16:17
  but it's not nano anyway, instant transportation of atoms.
• 1:16:22
  Basically, I mean, that's a possibility.
• 1:16:26
  What am I thinking about a burger at Kennedy along with
• 1:16:29
  200,000 people at a launch and try to fight each other yet,
• 1:16:32
  dams. Exactly, dude, it's gonna be
• 1:16:35
  hectic for these launches, man. I might not be in all of it, you
• 1:16:39
  know what I'm saying? Like, I might not go to like the
• 1:16:42
  spot for this launch because That's going to be insane man.
• 1:16:49
  So I might find a spot like a little bit further away.
• 1:16:51
  I have a giant lens on my camera so I can get a pretty good view
• 1:16:56
  of this thing from pretty far away.
• 1:16:59
  So I'm thinking I might just like, skip all the traffic What
• 1:17:05
  does like find a homie to like camp in their backyard or
• 1:17:07
  something? I don't know, I'm trying to
• 1:17:10
  figure it all out. The logistics of this is for
• 1:17:12
  somebody like myself, who is an Enthusiast?
• 1:17:14
  Who is a reporter for all? This stuff is a podcast or
• 1:17:17
  whatever. Yeah, it's just, it's insane.
• 1:17:22
  It's insane how much this stuff. Actually, how much time this
• 1:17:26
  stuff takes to figure out. So yeah, also, if you if you
• 1:17:35
  like podcasts, this will be an audio format if you want to
• 1:17:39
  listen to it later, check out Elon Musk podcast.
• 1:17:42
  It's an Elon Musk pod basically where I do all of these shows
• 1:17:46
  but I post them up on it and the YouTube app or on the on all
• 1:17:51
  podcast apps. So if you can hit that up and we
• 1:17:55
  have other episodes available in audio that aren't on here that
• 1:17:58
  are specifically about Elon as well.
• 1:18:01
  So anything that we do on here, I posted up to that podcast the
• 1:18:04
  Elon Musk podcast. So check that out.
• 1:18:08
  Pretty cool. I like it, it's fun.
• 1:18:10
  I like to do it over there. We have a pretty good following
• 1:18:13
  and yeah, sort of the, the other way to generate Revenue so I can
• 1:18:20
  continue doing these things. So if you could, that would be
• 1:18:22
  great. If you can subscribe over there,
• 1:18:24
  or if you just wanna hit the like button on this YouTube
• 1:18:26
  channel, that'd be freaking sweet.
• 1:18:29
  So thank you screaming in my basement.
• 1:18:32
  Hello from West Africa. Oh wow, that's cool.
• 1:18:35
  It's cool. I see that's the other thing
• 1:18:37
  about YouTube is that I love that it brings so many people
• 1:18:40
  with the same interest together. That's the reason why I started
• 1:18:46
  the show by started this channel because I had interest in space,
• 1:18:50
  flight that nobody else did around my town or around this
• 1:18:53
  area or astronomy actually started with astronomy.
• 1:18:55
  And I was like, there's nobody else around here with the
• 1:18:58
  telescope other than me, I'm like the only weirdo so, Yeah.
• 1:19:04
  It's pretty cool. It's pretty cool to start this
• 1:19:06
  thing and become part of this community.
• 1:19:08
  And then like be so welcomed with open arms from so many
• 1:19:12
  people and then just becoming friends with people, you know,
• 1:19:16
  let's see if we see if this Discord.
• 1:19:20
  Is available here too. Let's see if that command works.
• 1:19:24
  That may be Maybe not. I'll get a link to the Discord
• 1:19:30
  as well for you. By the way.
• 1:19:35
  Yeah, it should work. There you go.
• 1:19:39
  It's basically Discord, Discord, click that join our Discord.
• 1:19:42
  We have cool crew of people. We have, I don't even know how
• 1:19:45
  many people we have on there, but it's pretty chill.
• 1:19:47
  So, if you want just like a place to hang out and, you know,
• 1:19:50
  chat when we're not in YouTube land.
• 1:19:54
  Does the Discord is a pretty cool place where it's starting
• 1:19:56
  to take other people's news and other people's opinions and
• 1:20:01
  stuff and trying to figure out all the fun stuff to do
• 1:20:04
  together, but we have a decent amount of people here on our
• 1:20:08
  Discord. So please, if you can just stop
• 1:20:12
  by say hi, trying to figure out how many people are in the
• 1:20:16
  community here. We need 1,000 members on our
• 1:20:28
  Discord to get into the community and then, We need.
• 1:20:34
  Yeah that's pretty much it. A thousand people in our Discord
• 1:20:39
  Deb's. Thanks for that shadow on disk
• 1:20:40
  or two. I didn't even post it.
• 1:20:45
  I'm going to give you a little hot dog on their will.
• 1:20:48
  Did you move from Texas? Yes, Jordan, I did.
• 1:20:51
  I moved back to New York to help.
• 1:20:52
  Take care of my dad. So I'm here for now but I am I
• 1:21:00
  am going to make trips so for any sort of launches or stuff
• 1:21:05
  like that, I'm going to be making trips.
• 1:21:07
  So every I know every few months every 3-4 months or something,
• 1:21:12
  I'll take a trip, probably for months, take a trip back down to
• 1:21:14
  Starbase for a week or so. You get as much footage as I can
• 1:21:19
  during the kind of events staged.
• 1:21:23
  So yeah, it's going to be pretty cool.
• 1:21:26
  And plus over here in New York, I have access to the Eastern
• 1:21:30
  Seaboard so that means I can basically like drive down the
• 1:21:33
  east coast to Florida and see some launches, so I might
• 1:21:36
  actually do that in the next. I don't want the next launch one
• 1:21:39
  or few launches coming up. Let's see where.
• 1:21:50
  And when are the next big launches?
• 1:21:52
  There's a rocket lab launches, a falcon 9 block 5 coming up.
• 1:21:55
  June 29th. Let's see what's the next SpaceX
• 1:21:58
  launches a star like launch and Vandenberg, California, Kennedy.
• 1:22:02
  Space Center CRS. SPX 25.
• 1:22:06
  July, 14th. Maybe we should, maybe we should
• 1:22:08
  do that. What do you guys think about
• 1:22:11
  going down there for a resupply mission to the International
• 1:22:15
  Space Station? That'd be cool man, July 14th.
• 1:22:21
  Let's plan on it. That's gonna be hot though.
• 1:22:23
  It's a hot one. Let's sort of pseudo plan on
• 1:22:27
  that. What do you guys think?
• 1:22:36
  do you think we should go down to Go down to the cape for the
• 1:22:44
  CR-X mission. CRS SP x, 25 July 14th, that's
• 1:22:57
  kind of plan on it. But also there's a Starship
• 1:23:00
  that's being built. So I got to pick my pick my
• 1:23:04
  battles here, you know,
