They found a way. “Watch: SpaceX launches its Starship rocket for the 3rd time The rocket, which launched from the company's Starbase facility in southern Texas, did not survive reentry.”

Or this one “SpaceX comes close to completing test flight of mega rocket but loses spacecraft near end”

"SpaceX fails to retain all heat tiles upon reentry. Starship not ready for space missions."

​@@LeesReviews69 That is not biased or anything, is what happened I agree that Elon, some times rightfully so, gets a lot of criticism from the media but regardless if one of his companies or not, bad news sell better - if we put two headlines, one that is like "Starship lifts off for the third time but fails on reentry" and the other that is more positive, "Starship launches successfully in its third launch" to a group of people, most will choose the first article, even if the content is the same, the headline will sound more interesting, "oh, it failed, how did it fail", the other one conveys the information faster, it was success, if you are not a space/aerospace fan it won't generate enough interest to click and read it

It’s funny people care at all since it has nothing to do with them. It’s a private company that makes tons of money launching rockets. People cheering at what they think is failure is just the new sad mentality of the US

😢😂

I know it sucks. Future generations are going to be lucky, they will be able to live on different planets, etc. Lucky bastards.

It looked like it hit major turbulence just before it failed. Went through clouds and then???

@@mountainmantesla4395 Engines couldn't lit earlier and being still at mach 1 on touchdown means that they went in the wrong trajectory/didn't decelerate enough.

so sad to see the booster trying it's best to survive 😭

Recycled rockets😂😂😂

more like its trying too hard, it looks like it needs to chill down its controll feedback

Very rare!

Bar is low

Cnn is blaming Elon's rockets for global warming 😂😂😂😂😂

It's sad how rare that is these days

"Starship launch: Third flight reaches space but is lost on re-entry" say the media. 3rd failure in a row.😂 "unbiased" WSJ.🤣

I think their control loop was oscillating out of control it looks like what process engineers call hunting

Each grid fin on the Starship is as big as a truck, if I remember correctly. Pretty impressive. With this launch they got a lot of test data to tune the control system for those grid fins, so I am already getting excited for the next flight test.

@@will123134 it looks like an easily solved problem if I’m right

@@will123134 you seem smart you should be able to figure out that the grid fins control software is on its first iteration for that stage of flight it’s not like they have attempted to control the booster solely with the grid fins before

Armchair expert has entered the chat.. 😂​@@will123134

I guess they’ll actually be able to recover at least one booster. Maybe even have a starship survive reentry. Too bad the timeline for lunar landing (and refueling) was…this year?

@@russellharrell2747Good thing nasa isnt even ready for a moon landing

@@gioscott1177 yeah because the company they contracted the lander to isn’t close. If they’d just went the tried and true rout or if congress hadn’t cut funding, changed the constellation program a million times into what it is today, and actually had a robust space program continuing on from Apollo in the 70s as originally proposed, then yeah, maybe. At least starship reached orbit this time.

@@russellharrell2747 I dont think it reached orbit because they didnt want it to reach orbit for safety reasons, I could be wrong though

@@gioscott1177 eh, I think it proved it could reach orbit, it does sound like they scaled the flight back to suborbital. Probably smart to not try to orbit that big thing just yet, since a failed reentry over the wrong area would be a nightmare. Altho this was the third full launch of super heavy with starship and really the first or second launch should have achieved what this one did. Hopefully the next one goes well and they don’t feel the need to scale back, since it looks like Uncle Sam is still willing to hand SpaceX tons of our money.

Well a 4 month approval. But I didn’t expect them to launch straight away. Just shows you how much they want this to work.

Yeah they received the launch license only around 18 hours before the launch itself

😂😂😂

Last two flights (IFT-1 & 2) had no live on board views, this flight had more bandwidth due to increasing the amount of Starlink terminals on both the Ship and the Booster and thus they were able to share the views live Either that or something else related to ITAR or something like that

@@gbbarnwe are in the height of space flight right now, never in mankind have their been so many rocket launches by so many different countries

@@gioscott1177 sure, space flight, sadly not space exploration, we're at the height of space flight driven by corporate interests, well at least we're doing something. Even if it's catching up to the result of decades of NASA's budget cuts. Don't get me wrong, I'm hyped, but it's a mix of feelings, knowing it's not in the name of science :(

@@gbbarn I can give you a ton of reasons why we are at the height of the space exploration but for some reason you still wont care

The whole point of a flight is that you actually return safely. 🤣

@@Horizon-hj3yc The most important goal is getting into orbit and delivering the payload of up to 250 tons. I expect with the fourth test, they will deliver large satellites into orbit, which will allow them to mitigate future costs. The long term goal is to have humans travel to the moon with the starship, but that will not happen until 50+ successful launches.

Congrats to space x for not giving minimum wage and loading another rocket

​@@thatsmeomfgikr6220 soooo no recycle rockets 😂

​@@Horizon-hj3ycwrong. The point of the flight was to find failure points and get real-world flight data

This is called a failure. The third in a row. It's purpose is to bamboozle and you fell for it.

@@David-wc5zlIndeed, another fail, and the next one will fail too... and the next one too.... it's a flawed design, extremely unreliable.

It was more stable for me on X than it ever was on UKposts.

destroyed during re entry

Booster ran out of propellant and impacted water at high speed, destroyed. Starship re entered but lost communication during. Not sure if they were able to destroy it with "controlled deconstruction" or if it just crash landed. But I think they said it went down in Indian Ocean so not intended spashdown zone.

Here is your daily reminder that 89% of the biggest polluters are a handful of large industry corporations. Individuals have very little to no impact on co2 levels. Sure switching to a better emission vehicle will get you far better air quality, but you are not responsible for the actual change in said air quality. While spacex may have some serious co2 emissions, it's nothing compared to what unregulated polluting industries cause every second of the day.

@@evolicious its the same output as flying a jumbo jet once so don't worry.

That's what proper funding can do! Haha

@@brandzwright773SpaceX gets a fraction of the funding of NASA.

@@zachb1706 yeah but it don't cost 30,000 for a bolt

@@brandzwright773so it not about the funding but management style and culture

It's awesome. But this isn't something NASA couldn't do in 10 Years. They have already gone to the Moon and back. Any success from SpaceX is on the shoulders of past science and technologies developed and put into practice by NASA and the public sector. This doesn't take away any merits from SpaceX of course, but let's be accurate here, they are not reinventing the wheel, they are innovating on top of existing technologies; that also is awesome.

Its extremely heavy, the goal is to use as little heat shield as possible

We believed you when you said you don't know anything about space engineering, you didn't need to demonstrate it

Before I give a suggestion, I realize that the fact that SpaceX has an entire TEAM of some of the freaken smartest people on Earth on their engineering team, I think they pretty much went through all options and this may be the optimal design before sending a rocket that’s worth over 200 million + to orbit.

​@@BIOHAZARDXXXX also includes the wings because you only need as much as you expect it to control

It's a vector for its forward velocity. When it goes completely sideways at its apogee as long as it doesn't point back down it maintains whatever vertical speed it had on ascent (which is pretty small or close to 0 by then due to gravity counteracting) combined with the horizontal velocity.

Please remember, the Apollo program cost was around 300 billion dollars. In the 60’s, this represent 30% of USA GDP. and also employed 380 000 people. And starship is nothing like Saturn V, it’s a completely new technology.

Spacex can get a rocket to the moon and can get astronauts to space. What failed here was recovering the rocket, a completely different thing.

Now that you mention it, it kinda does look like that. I was thinking it could have been a fuel leak

Since it hit 0km altitude at 1111km/h, yes it obliterated itself.

​@@HopesedgeThat's like mach 0.9 lol

You can’t obtain telemetry when the rocket is going through re-entry. The plasma field prevents that. And no there was no recovery team, it was going to crash into the ocean and sink to the bottom.

It failed. Mr Twitter needs to hire more staff from NASA.

To the Ship/Upper stage? If you watch the entire thing, during the whole coast fase there was a very noticeable roll on the whole vehicle, the flaps tried to correct and stop the roll but high up in the atmosphere they do little to nothing, and the rest of the RCS was either unable to correct or wasn't working or something similar The vehicle reentered first on its ~side (Imagine if the shuttle was with its nose pointing upwards and the edge of the wing pointing ~45 degrees with respect to the ground) then it tumbled and was apparently pointing retrograde, so engine first, surprisingly it lasted for several seconds/a minute while going through the hardest part of reentry and it eventually gave to aerodynamic forces
