  Hi everybody. Welcome back to the space news.
• 0:07
  Paw, this is a show about SpaceX NASA and space flight.
• 0:10
  I'm your host will Walden. And on this episode we're going
• 0:13
  to be talking a little bit about Starbase.
• 0:15
  We're going to be talking about inspiration for and we're going
• 0:18
  to be talking about starlink we're going to be talking about
• 0:21
  Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk as well, but first and foremost, I
• 0:26
  need some help. One I need you guys to give this
• 0:30
  video a thumbs up but also I need your help in the comments
• 0:34
  because I'm going to be leaving for Starbase in a couple days
• 0:37
  and I need your ideas for snacks along the way.
• 0:41
  I have my favorites, right? I have beef jerky, which is my
• 0:44
  favorite thing to eat on road trips.
• 0:47
  Have a bunch of water. That's all I got so far.
• 0:50
  Just beef jerky in water. I'm going to make sandwiches and
• 0:53
  things like that, too. But other snacks like little
• 0:55
  things to snack on along the Way.
• 0:58
  So let me know in the comments, what you would suggest for
• 1:02
  snacks for the road trip to Starbase and I'll film
• 1:05
  everything to. That's another part of this
• 1:07
  thing. I'm going to be filming my whole
• 1:08
  trip and then I'll release a video.
• 1:11
  I'm going to try to do it every night that I'm on the road, but
• 1:13
  I'm not sure if that's going to happen because it's a lot of a
• 1:16
  lot of driving. And by the time, I hit the hotel
• 1:18
  room, I might be dead tired and I might not be able to edit this
• 1:22
  stuff, so might get it. When I get there or we might get
• 1:25
  it along the way. So make sure to let me know.
• 1:28
  Think about snacks. Now, speaking of snacks, so
• 1:33
  horrible transition, sorry about that but there's some there's
• 1:38
  some news going on on Highway 4 over here at SpaceX is Starbase
• 1:42
  Cameron, County Highway for closure was canceled today on
• 1:47
  Thursday but Friday. Close your scheduled from 7:30
• 1:51
  a.m. to 10:30 a.m. okay. That's open Hardware.
• 1:57
  NG booster move and possibly are.
• 2:00
  What are we going to see on the on the highway this weekend?
• 2:03
  And then we also have Tuesday, September 7th as well, so I'll
• 2:07
  still be on the road. I won't be there yet.
• 2:09
  I'm going to get there on the 10th.
• 2:10
  So I'll miss this one by a couple days, but I'm sevens from
• 2:14
  7:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. So, that's a good four hours of
• 2:21
  stuff, moving around an hour to get stuff, prepped.
• 2:24
  There are an hour to move stuff and then three out yet, so we'll
• 2:27
  see. We'll see.
• 2:27
  Moves up and down that road on both of those days, tomorrow,
• 2:31
  Friday, and Saturday or September 7th on Tuesday.
• 2:37
  So I'm right in the middle of packing everything right now, by
• 2:39
  the way. So like I have my luggage over
• 2:41
  there. I have a backpack over there, I
• 2:44
  have a duffel bag over there. All this computer gear, gets
• 2:47
  ripped down on Friday, so probably no video on Saturday.
• 2:53
  That'll be like the final like packing day and hanging out day
• 2:56
  and then Sunday morning, I'm taking off for Starbase.
• 2:59
  So check this out. This is a really cool thing that
• 3:03
  I'm really really really stoked about the inspiration for
• 3:07
  Mission. This is Falcon 9 News.
• 3:11
  Look at this. The cupola the we finally get
• 3:15
  the shots of the cupola of people inside.
• 3:21
  They look amazing. Like how cool is this?
• 3:25
  Look how happy they all are. They're all like yeah, what's
• 3:27
  up? Yeah, we have the biggest
• 3:30
  window. Yeah, blue origin, can't claim
• 3:34
  it Virgin. Galactic can't claim it SpaceX.
• 3:37
  The show is brought to you by backblaze.
• 3:39
  I use back place to back up my podcast.
• 3:42
  My video files, all of my writing stuff, and all my
• 3:45
  photos. And you get unlimited computer
• 3:47
  backup, for Macs, and PCs for just $7 a month.
• 3:50
  You can backup your own documents photos videos.
• 3:53
  Drawings projects, all of your data and access your backed up
• 3:57
  data from anywhere in the world using the web app and you can
• 4:00
  access the files on your mobile to iOS Android apps all covered.
• 4:04
  And this is a cool part. This is my favorite part.
• 4:06
  You can restore it by mail, a hard drive will come to your
• 4:08
  house with all your data shipped to your door.
• 4:11
  It could come to your business to and you can restore return
• 4:14
  refund program so you can buy a hard drive restore, send the
• 4:17
  hard drive back within 30 days and get a full refund.
• 4:21
  So basically they ship you this hard drive and then you ship it
• 4:24
  back and you don't ever pay for it which is the perfect program
• 4:27
  for Somebody who has huge files in.
• 4:29
  You don't want to waste days and days, downloading terabytes and
• 4:33
  teraflops of data. And if you're worried about
• 4:35
  accidentally, deleting your files to bucks extra month, you
• 4:38
  can increase your retention history to one year, and I use
• 4:42
  it for all of my video. Files comes in super handy.

  So seven dollars plus two dollars nine dollars a month and
• 4:47

• 5:48
  It's can claim the biggest window for private spaceflight.
• 5:52
  Like, look at that thing. That's going to be so cool.
• 5:57
  Could you imagine Imagine being in that thing and looking down
• 5:59
  like a VIP be positioned. So like this, basically, like
• 6:03
  this. So Earth is down here.
• 6:07
  So imagine Earth is the hoop. You're flying over earth and its
• 6:12
  what then of course, go back down, go back to other.
• 6:19
  But how cool is that that your that they'll be able to take
• 6:22
  absolutely amazing video and photos.
• 6:27
  It's just get to just get to experience that once in a
• 6:31
  lifetime opportunity. So happy that everyone's going
• 6:35
  and like to how cool is that. But also guess who's been
• 6:38
  documenting, this Netflix has been documenting this and it's
• 6:43
  it looks really cool. And Netflix actually going to be
• 6:46
  streaming this video. Like In this launch, which is
• 6:51
  never happened before us. Netflix hasn't stream this
• 6:53
  before, so they'll be streaming it on YouTube.
• 6:59
  September 15th. How cool is that?
• 7:01
  Like what do you think about that?
• 7:02
  That's cool but they released a trailer for it and it's it's
• 7:07
  really interesting that they're going to be showing a lot of the
• 7:10
  behind-the-scenes stuff in it like I watch the trailer and it
• 7:13
  looks very cool like it looks like people are really enjoying
• 7:17
  themselves you know the crews really enjoying themselves and
• 7:20
  learning a lot as they're going to be taking this mission to
• 7:23
  space and this is the first all civilian space flight.
• 7:29
  So, it's going to be an emotional thing.
• 7:30
  I'll probably cry. Just going to be, I'm going to
• 7:33
  be totally honest with you. I'll probably cry.
• 7:35
  I'll probably watch the thing and be like, this is the
• 7:37
  beginning of everything, you know, like this is the stuff
• 7:39
  that I wanted when I was a kid, so, it's actually happening.
• 7:42
  So, this is the coolest thing that I've seen in a really long
• 7:47
  time. So, so pumped about it.
• 7:49
  And I'm glad that Netflix pick this up in the Thursday actually
• 7:52
  documentation. I like documentary-style footage
• 7:55
  in a whole movie about it, so that's going to be Really really
• 7:59
  rad. Now let's talk about something
• 8:02
  that's not read, okay? The FCC SpaceX and Amazon.
• 8:10
  Which Amazon? Come on, dude.
• 8:14
  Come on. This is what happens with big
• 8:16
  corporations. If you can't compete with
• 8:18
  another Corporation, if you can't compete with another
• 8:20
  company, you try to sue them and that's what Amazon is doing to
• 8:25
  SpaceX. Okay.
• 8:28
  This is because SpaceX is launching the second generation
• 8:34
  of Starling satellites will be much better than the ones
• 8:37
  currently but Amazon's like hey FCC man, they didn't give you
• 8:41
  enough information, they aren't ready for this, the world isn't
• 8:44
  ready for this, so Yeah, there's a few things here.
• 8:51
  This is from the sheets tweets on Twitter.
• 8:54
  Amazon's recent missive is unfortunately only the latest in
• 8:58
  its continuing efforts to slow down competition, while
• 9:01
  neglecting to resolve. The commission's concerns about
• 9:03
  Amazon's own, non geostationary orbit satellite system.
• 9:08
  And I'm laughing because Amazon really hasn't done anything yet.
• 9:11
  That's all kind of vaporware ish.
• 9:14
  You know, the cat like they've done a little bit of stuff, but
• 9:17
  SpaceX has a working model. Shown that they can do this but
• 9:21
  Amazon is basically saying, no, they can't do this FCC.
• 9:25
  What do you thinking? You know, what do you think in
• 9:27
  men? The and this is SpaceX is
• 9:30
  rebuttal by the way that I'm showing you right here and
• 9:32
  luckily the sheets tweets like sheets highlighted all the good
• 9:37
  stuff. But while Amazon is found
• 9:38
  nothing with the commission to address these conditions on its
• 9:41
  own license. Nearly 400 Days SpaceX claps
• 9:43
  back. It took only 42 objective
• 9:46
  spacex's Next, Generation NGS. Oh, system.
• 9:50
  I find this stuff. I mean, I don't find it funny
• 9:52
  but I just find it. Like it's Petty, you know, it's
• 9:56
  like why would you do this? Just make a better product.
• 9:59
  That's what capitalism is like, that's what the whole industry
• 10:02
  is about making better products so people will use them as
• 10:06
  opposed to being like, just just play with the big boys.
• 10:09
  You know, I'm saying? It's like, get out of here if
• 10:11
  you can. Well, I was on his way to 15
• 10:13
  months to explain how it system works.
• 10:16
  It has lodged objections to SpaceX on average about Every 16
• 10:20
  days this year, every 16 days they've had lawsuits or
• 10:27
  objections, something like that again, SpaceX the commission
• 10:30
  should recognize this delay tactic for what it is.
• 10:33
  The continuation of efforts by the Amazon family of companies
• 10:35
  to hinder competitors to compensate for, Amazon's failure
• 10:39
  to make progress of its own. Amazon's maneuvering is familiar
• 10:43
  to anyone who has watched Amazon or its sister companies.
• 10:46
  Oh, Oh, oh. Oh, that hurt, that hurt.
• 10:53
  Oh, that was a good like that was like a quick, pam.
• 10:55
  Pam. Pam that was a jab, but it like,
• 10:57
  hurt him, really bad, you know, there's one of those things
• 11:00
  Amazon. Next makes the conclude
• 11:02
  conclusory. I'm really good at speaking
• 11:06
  today. That is the commission were to
• 11:08
  accept SpaceX is amendment. It would encourage speculative
• 11:11
  applications failed to ensure that the applicant is ready and
• 11:14
  willing to construct, the satellite proposed in this
• 11:16
  application. But Amazon cannot explain how
• 11:19
  providing information to the commission about an alternative
• 11:21
  configuration would encourage speculation.
• 11:25
  It's a big brain thinking is Amazon's former Chief Executive
• 11:28
  has said in the past procedural Maneuvers like the ones, Amazon
• 11:32
  now, deploys have become the bigger bottle neck than the
• 11:36
  technology calling out Jeff Bezos, straight up.
• 11:42
  Jeff basically said hey man if you're just going to put
• 11:46
  everything in litigation, if you're going to see Everybody.
• 11:48
  Nothing is going to get done and we don't want that.
• 11:51
  That's what Jeff Bezos has said. In the past in it he's actually
• 11:55
  documented saying that and then this is calling him out on that
• 11:58
  and that's what Amazon is doing here.
• 12:00
  They're putting it just stopping SpaceX from doing their second
• 12:05
  generation of Starling satellites so there's a I don't
• 12:10
  know I'm passionate about this stuff.
• 12:12
  I think it's pretty cool that SpaceX is doing you know,
• 12:15
  generation to starlink and Malik is going to change.
• 12:19
  So many people's lives. That if you think about it, if
• 12:23
  you want people to have better lives wouldn't you just say you
• 12:26
  know, at SpaceX do your thing but that's not what it's about
• 12:29
  here. It's about money, it's about
• 12:31
  control and it's about having your own satellite web around
• 12:37
  the earth. You know your cluster is around
• 12:39
  the Earth and space X is far, far ahead of everybody else so
• 12:42
  they're trying to slow them down so they can play catch-up.
• 12:46
  With a product that isn't as good as stare like generation
• 12:49
  to, so that's exactly what's happening.
• 12:52
  And this is the best part. Elon Ilan, this is this funny.
• 12:59
  Ilan tweeted filing legal actions.
• 13:01
  Against SpaceX is actually his full-time job.
• 13:06
  Oh man, that's amazing. That's amazing.
• 13:10
  So a tweet earlier I think Ilan said Jeff Bezos has his job
• 13:18
  might be to sue Amaterasu SpaceX all the time but now he's like
• 13:25
  Yeah, it's actually a full-time job this time so we'll see what
• 13:29
  happens. A pretty sure SpaceX is going to
• 13:32
  continue on because they have a proven model, they know what
• 13:34
  they're doing. And if they if anybody needs any
• 13:37
  information from SpaceX, you know, as far as the FCC is
• 13:41
  concerned, SpaceX can provide that for them and I'm sure that
• 13:45
  Amazon is going to be happy about that, right, Amazon.
• 13:48
  I'll just like back off and say, you know, we were wrong.
• 13:51
  We were Rock. But now probably everything six
• 13:53
  weeks from now. They'll probably Also more
• 13:55
  paperwork and try to slow down SpaceX again, look, man, I want
• 14:00
  all the companies to do. Well, I'm not on side a side, be
• 14:04
  one or two, whoever I'm on side, get everything good for
• 14:08
  everybody, right? Make space cool.
• 14:11
  Make everybody make Internet available for everybody, but I
• 14:16
  think these kind of things slow everything down, so I wanted to
• 14:21
  happen sooner than later. I want people in the middle of
• 14:23
  nowhere, to be able to have it. Annette access.
• 14:25
  I want people to learn when they haven't been able to learn
• 14:28
  before because they don't have internet access.
• 14:30
  So that's what this is all about.
• 14:33
  So anyway, that's about it for me today, everybody.
• 14:36
  Thank you so much for watching and remember to leave the snack
• 14:40
  comments down below because I need those snacks.
• 14:43
  Nothing really hot but maybe something really hot.
• 14:46
  Maybe we could try it out, I don't know.
• 14:48
  Let me know, let me know in the comments.
• 14:50
  Thanks everybody take care. Bye bye.
