I use back place to backup my podcast, my video files, all of
0:06
my writing stuff, and all my photos.
0:08
And you get unlimited computer backup, for Macs and PCs for
0:11
just $7 a month. You can backup your own
0:14
documents photos videos. Drawings projects, all of your
0:18
data and access your backed up data from anywhere in the world
0:21
using the web app and you can access the files on your mobile
0:24
to iOS Android apps all covered. And this is the cool part.
0:28
This is my favorite part. You can restore it by mail.
0:30
A hard drive will come to your house with all your data shipped
0:33
to your door. It could come to your business
0:35
to and you can restore return refund program so you can buy a
0:39
hard drive restore, send the hard drive back within 30 days
0:42
and get a full refund. So basically they ship you this
0:45
hard drive and then you ship it back and you don't ever pay for
0:48
it which is the perfect program for somebody who has huge files.
0:51
You don't want to waste days and days downloading terabytes and
0:55
teraflops of data. And if you're worried about
0:57
accidentally, deleting your files to Bucks extra month, you
1:01
can increase your retention history to one year, and I use
1:04
it for all of my video. Files comes in super handy.
1:07
So seven dollars plus two dollars nine dollars a month and
1:10
you get everything backed up. He's a mind for up to a year.

2:14
Well hello, hello, hello everybody.
2:19
Welcome Back to the podcast, welcome back to the show.
2:23
My name is Will, and this is the space news pod.
2:26
I am going to move this window over here so I can look at the
2:29
chat. Good afternoon everyone
2:32
gregster. Hello howdy, Greg Smith, Marco.
2:34
Hey, how's it going? We're gonna be talking about
2:38
Starship today. I love you guys can see this.
2:41
It's a little bit shiny over here.
2:44
This is the Starship. Super heavy Starship schematics.
2:50
And that's my new background. So, yeah, pretty cool.
2:56
I just got it. And I had to let us sit on the
2:58
porch for over 24 hours, so I could stop the spread of the
3:03
corona stuff. And now, it's back there because
3:07
I cleaned it off and throw away the cardboard that it came in.
3:11
So hope everyone is doing well today, and hope everyone is
3:13
having a fantastically beautiful amazing day in isolation because
3:21
I know some places you can't go out, so that's why I'm here.
3:24
We can hang out. Talk about nerdy space stuff
3:26
together. Now this is what I came to talk
3:30
about, came to this show today specifically for you guys.
3:35
So we talked about this document SpaceX released this document
3:40
and it's a doozy revision. 1 Starship users guide.
3:44
You can get to this by going to spacex's site.
3:49
And go to Starship space, x.com and then go to Starship.
3:53
I'm going to be posting this document on Space industry
3:56
news.com as well. Now, before I get into a little
4:00
bit more of this stuff, I'm going to say thank you so much
4:03
for everybody who's come to the show.
4:06
First and foremost, I can't do this without you, and just being
4:10
here is awesome and thank you to everybody who subscribe to the
4:14
show. Literally, I don't know what to
4:18
say. I'm just I'm taken aback by how
4:23
cool this is all become and literally because of everyone
4:28
here like you are. The reason that this is becoming
4:31
a thing. We're almost at nineteen
4:33
thousand subscribers and a couple days ago, we were 18,000
4:36
subscribers, so it's blowing up. So yeah, Benjamin good
4:41
afternoon, sunny and 46 here. Legally allowed to go for a walk
4:45
Greg. Same here, we're allowed to go
4:47
outside. We're allowed to walk around.
4:51
We're allowed to exercise. We're allowed to go to Parks as
4:54
long as we stay away from people.
4:55
They close down a bunch of the park areas though, which is a
4:58
weird thing for me because the Park area is there always
5:02
teeming with people and going out the, it's a really surreal
5:05
scene, right? So you go to the park and you
5:07
see people playing tennis usually or, you know, hanging
5:11
out together on like, picnic benches and stuff, but all that
5:14
stuff's been like quarantined off and they have yellow tape
5:17
around. And it.
5:19
So I went to the park today and I went for a hike in the morning
5:22
I guess it was afternoon, about 12:30 went for a little hike.
5:26
Saw some people with their dogs out and was really nice to see
5:28
people and, you know, people are smiling today.
5:32
It was a nice day, it is still a nice day and I do plan on
5:34
getting out after this as well. Your parks are closed and fines
5:39
for breaking rules. I gotta change that, you know,
5:45
we gotta fix this solution or we got to fix this problem.
5:48
It will be good to know. There is people up there in case
5:51
everyone gets sick on Earth. They have, they can develop a
5:53
cure and come back. That's true.
5:55
Yeah, that's one of the cool things about Starship is that
5:59
you can launch people to other planets, you know, it's not as
6:02
good as Earth. Now you can't really can't
6:06
really get much better than earth.
6:07
Right. I guess where were born that's
6:08
where we made were made of Earth stuff for me to Star stuff and
6:13
unfortunately sometimes the Earth sucks you know what I'm
6:17
saying? Sometimes the Earth sucks and
6:18
you gotta just be like, okay well you just got to deal with
6:21
this stuff for a little while. And you know, I have faith that
6:25
everything will go back to normal and, you know, hopefully
6:30
people will under have a better understanding of what Humanity
6:32
actually is and how we all kind of work together to make this
6:35
thing work. That's kind of, you know, it's
6:39
going to be important that everyone kind of like, you know,
6:41
is more friendly to each other after this sort of happened
6:44
after other big events but in the u.s. here, you know, it's a
6:50
little bit different than the normal so, you know, we're
6:54
trying to fix it Earth. We tried right, Greg, right?
7:00
Yeah, we do have a shot, we gave it our best, you know.
7:03
Yeah. Maybe maybe we weren't made for
7:06
here and we should go to Mars. But that's what Starships for is
7:10
to take people to Mars now more than ever, who knows, who knows
7:14
what's going to happen? So might as well have an escape
7:16
plan, right? Elon wanted a cool reality.
7:21
It's I still pretty cool. you know, I'm I'm one of those
7:27
people that doesn't really I'm not like a I'm not I don't have
7:31
a really huge social group people hang out with.
7:35
So I go to parks and I hang out with people and I must keep
7:38
order so I can go to places. But I don't really have to
7:43
interact with people that much in my life.
7:46
So I'm like, pretty normal for me to do what I'm doing right
7:49
now. So I personally am a very
7:52
fortunate person that I can continue doing what I've kind of
7:55
always done. It's just really weird to see
7:58
the streets. Empty Guy is defending herself.
8:02
Yeah, Mother Earth. We think the 15 band sn3 is
8:06
tall. Wait, until we see the super
8:08
heavy for it? Oh my God.
8:09
Yeah. Could you imagine like, Super
8:14
heavy. And Starship together if their
8:18
starship, right? So there's the place where the
8:21
people sit in the top. A hundred people supposedly.
8:25
We're going to fit in this thing.
8:27
I'm either going to be able to fit, but in this documentation
8:29
that I'm going to show you in a minute, There's some areas in
8:35
there where people can hang out. It's a really weird things.
8:39
So if you go to the Starship page on SpaceX and you click on
8:42
Starship users guide, you go to this page and let's take
8:45
actually this before we do that, let's take a look.
8:47
The diameter is 9 meters, 30 feet diameter height 160 feet
8:53
and this is just a Starship. This is not the booster
8:59
propellant capability 1,200 tons, 100 plus tons of payload
9:03
capacity, super heavy, the first stage or A booster of our next
9:09
Generation launch vehicle is a gross lift off massive, over 3
9:12
million kilograms and you just sub cooled.
9:14
Liquid methane and liquid oxygen repellents booster will return
9:18
to the to land at the launch site and it's six legs is
9:23
beautiful leg. He's so they're going to be
9:26
reusable. This booster is going to be
9:28
reusable, will be able to. We meaning Humanity will be able
9:31
to send Starships places. The boosters going to come back.
9:35
I'm going to give it a little spit polish there.
9:38
And then, you know, fix it up and then they're going to launch
9:40
it again. 99 m in a half is the diameter.
9:47
I don't know. This is directly from space X so
9:50
we'll see what it says in the super-heavy documentation.
9:55
That is over a football field, high when stacked.
9:58
Yeah, it's gonna be insane. 37 ramp trenches, could you imagine
10:04
having 37 Raptor engines work at the same time?
10:10
That is gonna be immense stainless steel tanks and
10:15
structure. Six Raptor engines on the
10:21
Starship itself actually to grid fins.
10:23
So to land properly, this is insane by the way.
10:29
I will to get to the documentation just a minute.
10:31
Let's take a look-see at this launch thing.
10:33
I'm going to I'm going to mute this just so there's no
10:39
copyright strikes or anything weird.
10:40
There we go. It's muted.
10:42
But you can see what they plan on doing.
10:45
It's kind of crazy or as one of my friends would say, cray cray.
10:52
Bob, how you doing? My Brink is a member of the
10:56
channel if you want to support the channel.
10:58
Make sure to, you know, become a member become a space, cadet.
11:04
Sorry, you can't skip subscribe to got no Finance shell to do
11:08
so. Love your podcast.
11:09
Love from Holland. Let me to rub.
11:12
Thanks for the thanks for the, for the help.
11:15
Just being here is awesome. So you're doing your part.
11:21
Greg Smith says it would be loud.
11:24
Yeah, that would be, that would be a huge, huge amount of sound.
11:29
And then right there you have the booster come back.
11:34
There's a Starship, I can't see. Yeah, that's probably the
11:38
booster. They didn't show the top of it.
11:39
So I'm assuming it's the booster Starships up in orbit and then
11:44
the cool thing is watch this. There's a Starship on the left.
11:50
Starship on the right the connect together.
11:54
One of them. Probably this is the refueling I
11:57
believe. And I yeah, that's the refueling
11:59
area of the mission that I refill the Starship and then
12:03
blam Starship on the right. The shiny one.
12:09
Will Blast Off someplace else. Ilan.
12:14
Said it's nine and a half. Maybe he was measuring outside
12:16
part, so, possibly, well, I believe Elon is he is he's the
12:21
guy so there we go. And then Starship takes off
12:24
launches someplace else. We're not sure where it's going.
12:27
But, yeah, and then to infinity and beyond Starship.
12:32
So anyway, this is a, this is a huge, huge, huge deal orbital
12:36
refueling. Basically, put a fuel tanker on
12:40
the back end of Starship, and then they have enough fuel to go
12:43
wherever they need to go. So, let's look at this users
12:46
guide because we already went through like, the basics of it,
12:48
and this is all the stuff that you can see Raptor engines, you
12:51
know, where it's going to be built, some cool pictures of it.
12:56
But here's the nitty-gritty of the deal.
12:59
So this users guide. It's kind of a big deal.

13:21
That's what it says right there. Just don't change this thing.
13:24
Company description. They basically go over.
13:29
We're SpaceX came from started in 2002, in the whole idea
13:33
behind SpaceX, is to launch stuff to Mars.
13:37
Make make people interplanetary its launch people to Mars, I
13:41
should say, but but elon's Vision was to launch a plant to
13:46
Mars and just how cool would it be?
13:47
If there is a picture of a plant on Mars, with kind of the Earth
13:51
in the, in the background somewhere?
13:53
That would be pretty cool. Yes, kind of his initial, you
13:56
know, his little spark as I like to say That's a little spark
13:59
that ignites the giant fire and also ignites these Raptor
14:04
engines that will be launching Starship.
14:08
So company description today SpaceX performs routine missions
14:11
to space with its Falcon, 9 of Falcon, heavy launch vehicles
14:14
for a diverse set of customers, including the National
14:17
Aeronautics Space Association for administration.
14:19
NASA. The Department of Defense
14:21
International governments in leading commercial companies,
14:24
SpaceX provides further support to NASA, etc, etc.
14:28
Our ship program overview. So you know SpaceX has been in
14:32
the business for a while. If you're 18 years old years,
14:35
old is SpaceX basically. So there's some people that are
14:38
watching this right now, you're younger than SpaceX, you know,
14:42
Elon Musk. And this idea a long time ago
14:46
And SpaceX, you know, has been around for a while it's but
14:52
still pretty young and it's compared to something like
14:55
Boeing. In the Ula.
14:58
You like those programs together, Starship program
15:01
overview, Starship system represents a fully reusable.
15:04
Transportation system, designed to service Earth orbit needs as
15:07
well as missions to the moon and Mars two stages super heavy.
15:11
Which is the booster in Starship, which is the craft.
15:17
And that's this whole, this whole doohickey there.
15:21
Look at that thing. Like I said, it's going to be as
15:24
the size of a football field. That is a gigantic rocket.
15:30
That's a gigantic raw and I don't understand it like I'm not
15:33
a rocket scientist. I've never been a rocket
15:36
scientist. Math is my worst subject.
15:40
So, like I don't understand how this thing works, but it's
15:43
absolutely insane. When that starts flying, we both
15:48
felt tonight a heavy, be retired while everything for from humans
15:50
to Cargo be launched on a Starship.
15:52
Only Kevin, that's a really good question.
15:54
I don't believe they're going to retire everything.
15:56
Because I think Falcon, 9 and Falcon heavy can have specific
16:00
launch duties. You know, Falcon Falcon 9 is
16:07
much smaller than Starship, so if it's a small mission, If you
16:10
only need like one satellite to go up, why would you use a
16:12
Starship? You know.
16:17
And it depends on, you know, where you're going to launch
16:20
when you're going to launch Etc. So you know how does how does
16:24
that fit into the equation? Falcon heavy.
16:27
It's similar because they can launch big things, but if
16:30
there's something in between Falcon 9 and Starship Falcon
16:33
heavy could fit that as well, you know I think they'll keep
16:37
them around for a while until they really figure out a
16:40
configuration for a Starship and kind of figure out possibly.
16:45
You know, if they can sideload some other Cargo in maybe at the
16:49
same time. So that's another thing that
16:51
comes down to in this document is shows it down here.
16:54
This payload guide payload configurations, will read that
16:58
real, quick Starship crew and uncrewed, configurations are
17:01
shown in figure 2, and that is down here.
17:04
Let's scroll down a little bit, think you're too.
17:09
Crude is on left. Hundred people can fit in here.
17:15
On the right uncrewed. So uncrewed beside the uncrewed
17:20
rocket. You see the flip top lid over
17:23
there on the right side, Starship payload deployment
17:26
sequence. It just opens up, opens up like
17:29
that, not as fast as that by the way.
17:32
And you know, the satellite launches out, whatever the
17:36
whatever the cargo is deploys from that.
17:39
And I said this in the podcast, the actual podcast, the audio
17:43
podcast today it reminds me of the Space Shuttle.
17:47
So space shuttle, they had bay doors which opened out like this
17:52
yes that would be the best way to with my hands.
17:54
I guess sort of like that. Yeah, sort of like that anyway
17:59
and then the cargo was in there and they can push it out and
18:03
this is It's a similar thing where there's no bearing that
18:07
gets lost, you know, they just open it, close it pretty simple.
18:14
So when it's done with this Mission closes, that thing comes
18:17
back down to earth, your fuel. It refurbish it and launches
18:21
again, so, It's gonna be insane. It's kind of like I keep saying
18:29
that word, insane because this doesn't make any sense too.
18:34
Rational human beings that have seen regular rocket launches
18:39
where things just fall into the ocean.
18:41
They're like whatever policy use.
18:43
This booster for a little while, then this is going to fall into
18:45
the ocean or yeah, whatever. Just a bunch of space.
18:49
Junk all over the place. Yeah.
18:51
It's like some Apollo parts were in the ocean.
18:54
You know. I think it was Put some some
18:58
super rich person. Who was it?
19:04
That went into the ocean and like recovered.
19:06
Some of the Apollo stuff. I don't know what they what they
19:09
were covered but it was like an Apollo 11 module or something,
19:13
or an Apollo module or something.
19:15
But I can't remember who it was but super rich person.
19:20
Jeff, I wasn't Jeff. I thought it was.
19:23
What's his name? The deep sea?
19:29
Deep sea. What submarine guy?
19:32
It's also a director. Was it?
19:34
Jeff though? If it was Jeff, that's awesome.
19:38
Mr. Jeff Bezos. Does anyone have tabs on the
19:41
rocket man? Oh yeah, that's a good idea.
19:44
The Rocket Man. F5 engines and Mercury capsule.
19:46
The second flight. Oh, do you know so much stuff?
19:50
I'd like this. You teach me things every time
19:52
we do this, it's pretty awesome. I was seeing the cool thing is.
19:55
I love to come in here because every time I do this show I'm
19:59
like, what is this thing? And then someone always has an
20:02
answer. And I remember like parts of
20:05
things sometimes like that and then somebody always has an
20:07
answer. So, thank you for that.
20:12
It's going to be simpler and cheaper to use Starship although
20:14
it sounds counterintuitive. Yeah, I think so too eventually.
20:19
So let's get into the payload Volume, 8 meter diameter
20:22
payload, Dynamic envelope is shown in figure 4.
20:26
That's where's this figure for down here?
20:28
Right below it. This large, Deployable envelope
20:32
allows for the design of Novel, payloads right here.
20:34
Opportunities in entire constellation of satellites on a
20:37
single launch. An extended payload volume is
20:39
also available available for Palos, requiring Up to twenty,
20:42
two meters of height. So what they're saying is you
20:46
can have a bunch of stuff in this thing.
20:48
A bunch of stuff at all times. You can launch with a ton of
20:52
stuff and you can put different things in there.
20:56
You don't have to have one giant satellite.
20:58
You can have a bunch of different things you can ride,
21:01
share constellation of satellites like Starship more
21:04
like starlink and you can do it all on a single launch.
21:10
So you don't have have to have numerous launches for safety.
21:15
Have 10 satellites. They need to go up.
21:17
We'll get those 10 said lights made in there.
21:19
We just launched them once, right?
21:28
Let's hold on a second here. So let's go over to the
21:32
mechanical interface has the payload fairing, standards.
21:36
Starship payload fairing is 9 meters in outer diameter.
21:39
Resulting in the largest usable, payload volume of any current or
21:42
in development, development launcher.
21:45
That's a huge amount of space. 22 M, think about the
21:50
telescope's. You don't launch with us.
21:51
Yeah. Who's going to make a telescope
21:55
that big? I want one that's going to be
21:57
huge Amazon CEO. Jeff Bezos on the mission to
21:59
recover. The Apollo 11 F1 rocket engines
22:02
from the sea floor. Thank you.
22:05
I thank you for that. I appreciate that.
22:08
Um, so they're going to slosh space Hotel modules.
22:12
That's kind of the plan. Actually, they've been talking
22:14
about that for a while launch modules to space station where
22:20
you can just kind of go and hang out and they're also they're
22:23
launching people to the space station on a private Journey.
22:27
So that's another huge, huge deal and also the added two new
22:31
crew members to the SpaceX flight to the International
22:36
Space Station. The first, the first flight like
22:40
inaugural not inaugural but the first actual flight, not a demo
22:43
flight in one of the astronauts is for from jaxa, which is
22:48
really cool. And we'll take a look at that in
22:50
a minute and get some more information about that.
22:54
It's kind of off topic, but pretty cool deploy.
22:58
The payload the clamshell fairing door is open in the
23:00
payload adapter and payload are tilted at an angle in
23:03
preparation for separation. The payload sin separated using
23:06
the machine you Payload adapter. If there are multiple payloads
23:09
on a single Mission or rotating mechanism, can be provided to
23:12
allow each said like two separate with maximum clearance.
23:16
When separation is confirmed in the payloads have cleared
23:18
fairing, the payload fairing doors closed and separate in
23:20
preparation for Starships return to Earth.
23:23
Those then goes into wherever there is gone orbit or wherever
23:29
because it can go to Mars and then it separates the payload
23:33
and then it shuts, it shuts it down and then It comes back to
23:38
Earth. They give a little spit polish,
23:40
ding, you know, a little ragout, they polish it up and then they
23:44
refurbish, whatever they need to refurbish.
23:46
And then just like an airplane, it's like you take a flight from
23:49
New York to LA. What do you get there?
23:52
People get off the airplane. They go through and they clean
23:56
it up and do whatever they got to do.
23:59
Check everything out. Make sure everything works
24:00
properly. They do some Diagnostics and
24:03
then they put people back on it and then they fly again.
24:07
That's what they want. Starship to be able to do and
24:09
that's what they're working on this week.
24:12
And next week, static fire tests, there's some pressure
24:15
test going on and possibly 150-meter hop on the 6th of next
24:20
week, is next Monday, I believe in the sixth, so Because the
24:25
turnaround for Starship, they want to be able to do it within
24:29
a day. They want to be able to fly
24:30
three times a day I believe at the most.
24:33
I think that's what he wants said.
24:35
Don't quote me on that that might have been.
24:36
They want to do three launches a day, maybe not the same
24:39
Starship. So I'd have to have to go back
24:44
and see what he said there. So and he doth, he does great
24:53
wonders so that he maketh Fire come down from heaven on the
24:56
earth. In the sight of men, Revelation,
24:58
13, 13 Falcon 9. Yes, it is a god-given rocket.
25:04
I think it's science and engineering, actually, I think
25:06
that's what did it. It seems very much a
25:08
re-imagined. A reimagining of the shuttle.
25:10
Large payloads plus reusability. Yeah, you know, I was thinking
25:14
about that. Like, how cool was this space
25:16
shuttle? We went over this the other day.
25:19
And I watched a quick video on the podcast about it and how
25:24
cool the space shuttle actually was even though it was like kind
25:28
of a wreck and it cost a ton of money, it was beautiful and it
25:33
was just such a cool idea like it's a freaking space plane but
25:37
it's similar. Yeah similar has similar me.
25:40
Doesn't land like a plane doesn't have landing gear
25:42
doesn't Glide in like a plane like the space shuttle did but
25:47
it's similar. being that it can be reused and that's pretty
25:52
pretty much the whole reason why SpaceX started It's going to
25:59
land, like a helicopter, it's going to land vertically.
26:03
So say if this flashlight right here, this tactical flashlight
26:07
is Starship, right? And it's coming down from from
26:10
up on high in the heavens towards our mother, Gaia and
26:15
it's going to land vertically like this.
26:18
Like that land on the ground, like a falcon 9 like any other
26:22
SpaceX rocket, and then it will shut off its engines Loop and
26:26
then the noise it makes when it shuts off its engines and then
26:29
it'll land will recuperate it or cooperate.
26:33
They'll reconfigured her to do whatever they got to do to fix
26:37
it up and then we'll launch that puppy again, on top of the
26:41
booster, which has been getting refurbed or whatever, they got
26:46
to do before they launch that sucker again.
26:48
And so this is going to be used numerous times.
26:54
They almost had the fifth launch of a falcon 9 the other day but
26:58
there was an Amelie. They didn't land it over.
27:00
They did have the launch but they didn't have the landing
27:02
properly. So that would have been
27:04
absolutely amazing. And that's where the getting to
27:07
another five Landings, five or six Landings on these things
27:10
soon. It'll be ten soon will be 20
27:12
then we'll be 30 then I'll be 40.
27:14
You know? Of course that's in the future
27:17
but they don't really want Use them past, I believe 10 at the
27:20
most just because that's when things start wearing out the
27:24
most in, they can't really rely on them payload, manifesting
27:29
said, like customers may be manifested on single or multi
27:32
manifest missions. Customers can bring a single
27:34
spacecraft, coordinate their own ride shares for a single
27:37
Starship launch or work with SpaceX to take advantage of a
27:39
multi manifest launch. Customer missions.
27:42
Do not need to wait for co-passengers in order to fly so
27:45
you can fly your own thing or you can.
27:48
Can wait for a ride. Somebody else to.
27:50
So you can split the cost. So say if you have one
27:54
government this like a we just want to launch a satellite but
27:57
we don't have enough money to launch the satellite right now,
28:00
you know, we need a little bit more funding or whatever it is.
28:03
I'm are a company that has a satellite that they need to
28:05
launch and they want to save some money.
28:07
Maybe they'll go in with your buddy.
28:09
You know, the rent some space together and they'll send both
28:12
satellites out of the same time. So that's pretty cool.
28:16
Single Mission manifests 12, 3 x, geosynchronous Telecom
28:20
satellites, pretty cool. Full constellation of satellites
28:23
on a single Mission, star link to or wanted to geosynchronous.
28:28
Telecom satellites. Plus Rideshare system of small
28:30
SATs in space demonstration spacecraft that remains
28:34
integrated with Starship and returns to earth.
28:36
That's pretty cool. I never thought about that cargo
28:38
and crew configurations as well. He'll adapters.
28:45
Those are pretty standard 937. Mm 1194.
28:49
Mm. 166 or 1666. Mm and 2624, mm, adapters.
28:54
And they can also Build one to suit you, basically, or use
29:00
yours. So yeah.
29:03
Acoustics shock, Etc. So, these are the, the real
29:06
Nitty Gritty. This is like the nerd stuff. so,
29:10
this is This is to make sure that you have the proper things
29:19
built into your satellites etcetera, as you launch.
29:23
Now, this is pretty cool over here though.
29:25
Payload integration SpaceX is initially planned for to launch
29:28
sites for the Starship, Kennedy Space Center.
29:31
In Boca Chica launch pad. So, Boca Chica is where they're
29:35
doing. All their tests test flights
29:37
right now and they're working on getting this thing.
29:41
So, hops, 150 meters, like I said before, that may go on next
29:45
Monday and when it does I'll let you know either here on this
29:49
channel or on the podcast. The podcast is going to be
29:52
quicker. So if you want to go to any
29:54
podcast platform that you have and look for space news pod,
29:59
it'll be available to you in audio form.
30:01
Much faster than I do in video form.
30:03
So, if you want the up-to-date like to the second that I will
30:08
make sure everybody knows about that.
30:09
As soon as possible for payloads returning to Earth, Landing
30:14
sites, accordingly with SpaceX and could include Kennedy Space
30:17
Center or Boca Chica. So it depends on where you are,
30:21
where you launch from Etc. Best flashlight in Ace beam.
30:24
There is a spam w50 with six kilometers of throw.
30:29
I don't know if I would ever need that flashlight.
30:32
I mean, I might, I don't know. That's like some crazy.
30:37
Six kilometers. I mean, what do I need to look
30:41
at? We take a look at this
30:43
flashlight real quick. Let me just take a look-see.
30:50
Ace beam. this one is 200 and some odd dollars, two hundred
30:57
eighty nine dollars for the What the ace?
31:01
BMW, 30, as 200 some dollars and that was.
31:05
That's insane. That's a lot of money.
31:07
I got this one, which If it is a gift actually.
31:13
So the best price ever, Free laser.
31:20
You'll find yourself nice. Yeah, don't look at it.
31:26
The first was like a lion and had Eagle's Wings had beheld
31:29
till the wings thereof were plucked and it was lifted up
31:33
effed up. World says this on YouTube
31:37
therefore were plucked and it was lifted up from the earth and
31:40
made stand up upon the feet as a man.
31:42
Daniel 7:4 the space shuttle. Probably not, maybe.
31:48
I mean if that's if that's what you want too.
31:50
Believe that's cool but also more than likely engineering and
31:55
science. So I'm a firm believer that
31:58
people want to make cool things in the.
32:01
We've always want to make cool things w50 is not out now, but
32:04
check the AMOLED MSR. You a flashlight expert here.
32:07
What's going on here? How many flashlights do you
32:09
have? $669 for a flashlight, man.
32:20
This is some other, this is some other level stuff right here.
32:24
We're going to little bit derailed from the conversation,
32:26
but dude, I used a flashlight first, so I guess it's my fault.
32:30
$669, for flashlights, bam! Has there ever been a rocket
32:39
launched from a Texas beach star Hopper?
32:42
I don't think that was a lot, that's not considered a launch,
32:44
that's considered a hop. I'm not sure from a Texas beach.
32:54
Xat is 250 to teach too much money for me, that's too much.
32:59
I barely get by just doing this podcast, so laughter, next up to
33:02
250, three bucks to spend on a flashlight.
33:05
I've got like a, I got a flashlight in my car, like a
33:08
bigger one, but it's not that powerful.
33:11
It's powerful enough to get you, get you through the night.
33:14
Payloads are integrated into Starship bearing.
33:16
Vertical in ISO Class, 8 Class, 100,000 clean rooms than the
33:22
integrated payload stack is transferred.
33:24
To the launch pad and lifting on the Starship vehicle.
33:26
So basically what they're saying is we're going to we're going to
33:30
take care of you, don't worry about it.
33:32
Crew configuration. This is where it gets crazy.
33:36
SpaceX was founded with the globe with the goal of making
33:39
life. Multiplanetary Starship program
33:41
is realizing this goal with the crew configuration of Starship
33:44
drawing on experience. From the development of dragon
33:48
for the commercial crew program. I Starship crew configuration
33:52
can transport up to 100 people from Earth into low earth orbit
33:57
and on to the moon and Mars. So how do people get fit in this
33:59
thing? The crew configuration of
34:02
Starship includes private? Cabins is what I was talking
34:04
about. The very, very beginning, like,
34:06
how crazy is this? Private cabins large common
34:11
area. Centralized storage in solar
34:14
storm shelters. In a viewing gallery.
34:18
So it's not like you're just going there like a spacecraft
34:22
like a, like an airplane. Where you can download this
34:28
document, is that what you're saying?
34:34
Nod. You can download this at the
34:37
SpaceX site on the Starship page.
34:42
Will how to spell your name? I can't tell you.
34:45
It's a secret. But how crazy is it?
34:49
That you can have your own private cabin?
34:54
A private cabin. Of your own.
35:01
Goodbye. It's going to be a lot of money,
35:03
you're going to spend a ton of money but there's a large common
35:05
area. Right?
35:08
Centralized storage solar storm, shelter.
35:10
That's pretty cool. How are you going to pack a
35:11
hundred people in a solar storm shelter, though?
35:14
Is there going to be enough room for that or just like a few
35:17
people would like the richest people going to be able to get
35:19
in there and there's going to be a viewing Gallery where you
35:21
know, there's a bunch of Windows which is going to be pretty
35:23
cool. Yeah, the document yeah it's
35:26
available to PDF and it's available on the Starship page
35:30
on SpaceX. I'll show you the way to get it
35:33
right here. So you get to the Starship page,
35:36
click on this up here space, x.com Starship load that page
35:40
and then click Starship user guide or says Starship right
35:44
there. So should be able to get it
35:47
right there. Where are we on this one?
35:52
Yeah, so that's the kind of crazy thing that I was
35:55
interested in the solar storm shelter.
35:59
How many are available? How many available in to you
36:07
know, to how many people and how do you get one?
36:09
Like you have to buy it? Extra is an extra thing or are
36:13
there like the private cabins? Are they sort of solar shelters
36:16
as well? That's what I was wondering
36:18
about. Starship sounds like it has more
36:22
room than the ISS. It's pretty big.
36:26
I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say it's not small, it's the size of
36:29
a football field with the booster on it.
36:33
So, Starship, I wonder how many people you could pack in the ISS
36:39
but you can set a hundred people into the ISS if you packed it in
36:41
there. Well Starship seems more roomy,
36:44
you know, So, let's see. You are a Dutch guy.
36:55
Oh nice. Welcome.
36:56
I appreciate you hanging out here and thanks for the
36:59
compliment since it can take up to 1,000 people in an airplane,
37:03
like configuration and 100 people will have much more
37:05
space. True.
37:06
True and really needs a bowling, dude.
37:10
A bowling alley on Starship would be crazy.
37:14
How would they do that though? Because once they get onto the
37:16
space, there's no gravity. The ball would fly all over the
37:19
place and just rip through a wall.
37:21
Everybody gets sucked out into space.
37:25
The hundred people configuration doesn't only for space missions.
37:27
Yeah, I mean that's like that's a crazy thing to think about
37:32
though 100 people. This configuration going to.
37:39
Mars. If you heard of space Madness,
37:43
where people go crazy because their cramped in a small small,
37:46
like tin can. But if you have 100 people
37:50
around You're going to have to have, you're going to have
37:54
people from everywhere. And you're going to have to
37:59
interact with those people and deal with those people until you
38:02
get to Mars or wherever you're going.
38:04
I mean the Moon is not that far away.
38:05
So whatever deal with them for a couple days or whatever.
38:08
Not a big deal but if you go to Mars what's a long time, it
38:13
takes 500 three to five hundred days or whatever, you know to
38:16
get there. so, I mean, if starship were too, I have 100
38:26
people going to Mars, all that stuff.
38:28
It's a big area. So if you could walk around and
38:30
Float around and stuff, there's no artificial gravity.
38:33
So you're going to have to like have to get you're gonna float
38:36
everywhere. Let's first on the ship wins,
38:41
right once the bowling ball flies to the hole.
38:44
Well, they do a test table where they launch from Boca Chica, and
38:47
land at Cape Canaveral. Wouldn't that be a good test for
38:50
a future world to world flight? They're planning, that would be
38:54
pretty cool. Kevin I agree with that.
39:00
I agree seeing the same people every day will be hard.
39:04
That's true. Let's have a private cabin, then
39:09
you're just like I'm gonna lock myself away, so you gotta save
39:12
up your money. Starship to Mars will be take
39:16
about 200 days. See that's still pretty long.
39:20
So yeah that's that's a pretty long distance.
39:26
There a long time, 200. 200 people are 200 days, 100 people.
39:36
There's got to be like privacy areas, you know, there's a, it's
39:39
like a cruise ship is like being on a cruise ship 400 for 200
39:43
days that would suck. I'm just gonna be honest with
39:45
you guys. That would really suck, I would
39:47
not be happy with that. because, You want to cruise ship for a
39:56
couple weeks, you know, 14 20 days, maybe and everyone's cool.
40:02
Everyone's like yeah party down everyone's getting drunk and
40:04
like, you know, jumping into a pool and, you know, playing
40:08
shuffleboard and all that stuff. But if you're up there for two
40:11
to three hundred, ish days with a hundred different people,
40:15
people are going to go crazy, you know, that crazy crazy, but
40:18
they're probably gonna, you know, it's the cabin fever.
40:19
We're going to get it here with the corona stuff.
40:22
We're getting cabin fever. People are getting like crazy.
40:25
and, you know, the The isolation of all of it when you're out
40:32
there and then what happens when the earth goes away, you know.
40:36
Like when you can't really see the Earth anymore, just becomes
40:38
like a little.you know when you very far away in space.
40:41
Like how does that going to? How's that going to affect the
40:46
human mind? Because that's our, that's our
40:47
home planet. Like how cool is that?
40:52
When we buy a product, we try their best to buy the best
40:54
product we do hours and hours of research on it, but when it
40:56
comes in choosing our faith, we blindly Oh, the religion passed
40:59
down by our parents. Hmm, that's a pretty good
41:04
observation. Yeah, even if it takes tethering
41:07
them together to rotate that will need gravity.
41:09
Even if it's only 200 days. Jim, I think I agree with you.
41:13
We need some sort of gravity, right?
41:17
I mean, there's there's got to be a way to mitigate the damage
41:20
to the human body of course You only be seeing Dance all around
41:28
pasta Sonia. Yeah, when the earth becomes a
41:33
DOT, that's crazy. That's crazy.
41:37
Could you imagine looking back and like, looking back at our
41:43
Earth and you don't know which. It is?
41:46
In the sky, when it's just another, you know, another thing
41:48
in this guy, another down in the sky.
41:51
That's crazy. The talk via WhatsApp or Skype
41:56
will be pretty difficult because it won't have immediate answers.
42:00
Yeah. There's gonna be a little bit of
42:01
lag. Deborah.
42:02
Hello. Welcome back.
42:06
One couple in the UK married for 44 years, husband murdered his
42:09
wife after four days in lockdown.
42:10
Oh Whoo, it's not good. Yeah some people are some people
42:16
go crazy. You just got to choose the
42:19
people that aren't going to go crazy and that's going to be
42:20
tough to do. You got to find cool people that
42:23
are really chill and don't really have any anger issues I
42:26
guess. So yeah, it's it's going to be a
42:32
tough one. You mentioned, an important
42:33
comparison, a cruise ship. Thank you.
42:36
I think it is like that, you know, because there's a common
42:38
area, but what are you gonna do play cards?
42:42
Space cards. I mean there's not really going
42:44
to be a lot to do maybe video games, but why would you want to
42:47
do that stuff? If you're in space, traveling to
42:50
Mars, it wouldn't get, I don't think it would get boring.
42:54
You know, everything. So the first people that fly on
42:58
Starship, the go to Mars will be the first people that ever see
43:04
what they see. so the once they get past the Moon, they're out
43:10
there, they're doing their thing.
43:13
They're going to be the first people to see what they see what
43:16
the like, no one's ever been that far.
43:18
No one's ever been that far so hopefully, you know, hopefully
43:24
it's sort of like a, it's an endearing experience for them
43:28
where they find love and happiness and unity through this
43:32
experience and not just kind of like beating their chests.
43:34
We did it. We did it.
43:35
You know? Hopefully they're like this is
43:37
Humanity, we're living this new life.
43:40
This is a whole new thing. So yeah, it's kind of crazy that
43:45
that's like that's possibly in the next 10 years.
43:49
You know, that everything is going to kind of change.
43:54
Well, are you an astronomer and amateur one?
43:57
Yeah, I am. I was an active amateur
44:02
astronomer for a good three years.
44:05
And then I had to sell my telescope and I'm heartbroken
44:07
because of it, because it was one of my favorite things to do.
44:13
And unfortunately I had to move and I had a son by telescope, it
44:16
was huge. It was the size of my car.
44:18
So at that point yeah, it was a life story.
44:23
Basically, it's like I need 400 bucks.
44:27
I gotta move it. So yeah, there we go.
44:30
That's what happened. Start mapping gravity month.
44:35
Yeah. Maybe they're just gonna have
44:36
casks to do, you know, maybe that's what they're going to be
44:39
doing. Maybe they're going to be doing
44:40
work. Attention, Starship pastors, I
44:42
am. Sorry to announce Netflix, cut
44:44
the transmission. All that would be horrible.
44:47
So why Mars? Why not Moonbase Alpha?
44:49
Um, but yeah, Moonbase Alpha would work too.
44:52
I mean, to go there first and learn stuff.
44:55
Why I need everyone to stop with the nationalism and racism
44:57
around the world. As long as that continues, or we
44:59
need that the human race will never evolve.
45:01
I agree with you, Jim. Because both will happen the
45:04
same time. What if space was she all?
45:08
What does that mean? Hold on and Hebrew, Bible is a
45:14
place of darkness in which spirits of the Dead.
45:16
Go with some circumstances they are thought to be able to be
45:19
contacted by the living. Oh Hades.
45:22
Okay, so I'm familiar with it with the term Hades, I don't
45:27
know. We don't know, we don't know.
45:31
So once we get out there, we'll figure it out.
45:33
You know, we'll figure it all this stuff out.
45:35
I'm a science person, so I believe in the science of
45:37
everything. Space is made of elements whose
45:43
elements are made of other things were made of those same
45:46
things. So if that's the case then we
45:51
are all hell. We're all Hades, you know, we're
45:54
not hell, but we're Hades. So we're made of the same stuff.
46:00
Mars actually has an atmosphere, unlike the moon.
46:02
They're still terraforming hopes Christopher, I would agree with
46:07
you, but terraforming Mars would be insanely hard.
46:16
I think Neil deGrasse Tyson on one of the latest Star talks
46:19
within the last month or so somebody brought that up.
46:24
And he said, why don't we we can't fix our own Planet?
46:29
If we can't figure this out down here, why would he want to
46:31
terraform Mars? What he does live here make this
46:34
place better. So I totally agree with that
46:37
one, but I think terraforming Mars would be pretty cool.
46:45
See. Moon base, Arun, Alpha base,
46:49
they're afraid the moon, loses the orbit with Earth.
46:53
Like it happened with space 1999.
46:56
Yeah. I found a NASA article saying
46:58
that it takes 500 million years for the solar wind to to wipe
47:01
out Mars atmosphere. See, that's kind of crazy
47:03
though. Think about like the Mars, The
47:05
Martian atmosphere. Is not like ours the planets
47:11
similar but we can maybe terraformed it in some ways, but
47:16
it's, it takes huge machines or nuclear bombs, or whatever, we
47:19
got to do to do that. But, you know, all that stuff
47:24
skit. It's going to take Millennia,
47:26
like it's going to take millions of years to figure that out or
47:29
hundreds of thousands of years to figure that out.
47:32
We could do both Earth and Mars. We can't live on Mars.
47:35
I mean, that's why they're going to the Moon.
47:37
You know, that's why NASA is going back to the Moon 2024.
47:40
But people on there of course and then like beat our chest.
47:42
Yay, we did it again. And also do science and figure
47:46
out how to live off world. It was done to be like Star
47:55
Trek. Yeah, you know, what was funny
47:57
is Park, Nest Starship, and SpaceX, and all this stuff is
48:05
built to be like Star Trek, right?
48:07
So he wants Elon Musk wants to start Trek future where everyone
48:10
kind of works together and everything's good.
48:13
And we do things for the good of the universe and for Humanity.
48:17
But he also said at one point, hey, you know, be cool is if we
48:21
had a bunch of things in orbit like bad, Star Galactica and I
48:27
was like yes Battlestar Galactica.
48:29
How cool would that be? I was like wait that's just a
48:32
freaking huge war against robots.
48:35
That would not be good. That would not be good at all.
48:39
The nitrogen test can happen in the next hour.
48:42
That's going to be cool. I hope they don't blow a lid,
48:45
don't blow a lid, don't blow a lid.
48:46
That's for the Starship. By the way, they're going to be
48:48
doing some test today and they going to be doing a static fire
48:51
next Monday. In possibly a hop next week as
48:55
well. So if they get these nitrogen
48:57
tests, Yvonne gave a talk in France, and talked about two
49:04
locations, Mars and moon. Yeah, that was the that's the
49:07
plan moon base and a Mars situation.
49:12
New space race for sure. What do you think of Singapore
49:15
as a model from arcing City? It is a country with 100% urban
49:19
area. I don't think we're going to
49:21
have an urban area on Mars. not right away, we're going to have
49:25
a bunch of pots and a bunch of tunnels and places where people
49:32
can walk without Having to breathe Martian atmosphere, you
49:37
know, because we need that thing called oxygen and air to breathe
49:42
and it's going to suck well, like a fully confined area.
49:49
I always, I think about this every once in awhile and how
49:51
crazy it would be to live in some place like that.
49:55
You're basically a hamster you know you live in a hamster tube
49:59
and I don't know if I'll be really add enjoyable life.
50:07
So I don't know, I like a goat like going to the woods, I like
50:11
going to a park, I like to go hang out outside but is that
50:18
going to be like a new reality for people?
50:20
You know, people will be in, you know on Mars, will they be and
50:24
on the moon to they're going to be in these pods are going to be
50:26
in these tubes and they're going to be living like this picture.
50:29
It's figure-eight right here, you can see Starship blasting
50:32
off from the Moon surface. Let me see if I can zoom in.
50:36
I would right there. Blasting off from the Moon
50:42
surface and you know those pods they're they're building.
50:47
Pods the giant City, structures solar panels Etc Starships.
50:51
Land on the outside. You go in to the interior via
50:55
vehicle of some sort and then you go to the station, this is
50:58
going to be a station. It's not going to be a city
50:59
anytime soon. We don't know how to make these
51:02
things yet. I got the, I did get the
51:07
carriage. Yeah, I did Debra, I was like,
51:10
I'm gonna do this and it's been over 24 hours on cardboard, is
51:14
it came in a cardboard box and then, that's over 24 hours
51:18
that's on paper. So I was like, I'm going to
51:21
unpack this thing and I'm going to wipe it down and it's going
51:24
to be fine. I'm going to wash my hands and I
51:26
was going to be good. Jim Myers, they have the testing
51:30
going on right now. Okay, well that might be a good
51:34
place for me to to end this podcast.
51:37
So you all can go watch that page because they have watch
51:45
this. I'm gonna send you a link.
51:48

51:54
show, I'm going to send you a link to these guys.
51:56

52:07
right now. They're doing awesome stuff.
52:09
So check out their page. They're doing a live stream of
52:13
the SpaceX Starlet or Starship. Sorry, Starship testing and
52:19
hopefully it doesn't pop a top. That would be bad.
52:23
Testing, isn't started quite yet.
52:24
Okay. Sounds good falafel.
52:28
Yeah, there's there's going to be some some movement around all
52:31
day but you know it's going to be a, it's going to be a while
52:35
before they do anything. I'm sure but it's nice to just
52:38
be there in case something happens.
52:40
It's kind of like one of those moments when actually something
52:43
does happen, they do the test and it's all done and you're
52:45
like yeah that's cool. So that's a good thing to cool
52:50
thing to check out. So that's going to be pretty
52:55
cool. So check this stream on, I'm
52:58
