at 7:04 Would the 1200-1431 mean 12:00-14:31, or something else? I’m confused as he said “Roughly two hours” when it’s more like two and a half hours. And also later he says 1200-1301 is “About half an hour” when in reality it looks like one hour.

Para solucionar el problema del movimiento de líquidos en el espacio, me imagino tanto la starship como el Booster como dos enormes jeringas en las que el émbolo va reduciendo el espacio a medida que se van consumiendo tanto el metano como el oxígeno. Co esto se podría prescindir de los tanques de cabecera y el trasvase de líquidos en el espacio sería muy sencillo a la vez que nunca se podrían formar burbujas.

@korban8971 Місяць тому

Starship suborbital hop was only successful after 5 attempts. I'm not convinced it will be 100% successful until at least 6 attempts. Starship thermal protection system needs something fundamentally different before it will work in terms of fully and rapidly reusable.

Why they think the tile system will be less of a nightmare to contend with than the Space Shuttle, is beyond me. I don't see anything shorter than a 2 month turn-around before the 2030's at best, or maybe ever until they inevitably switch to more of a Stoke Space solution for Starship.

@dphuntsman Місяць тому

Not sure I agree. Keep in mind, each shuttle tile was essentially custom-produced- which is not the case with Starship.

@michaeljohn5175 Місяць тому

@@dphuntsman That's what people like to hang their hat on but reality is a lot of them are custom on starship now too. Just the inspection and repairing takes time. And tiles were just a part of the problem. Even a falcon9 can only be turned around in a couple weeks at best without any tiles, wings, cargo doors, etc. But we'll see.

@dphuntsman Місяць тому

@@michaeljohn5175 Unrelated; but, I was impressed that one of today’s Falcon 9 launches had a fairing that last flew just 25 days ago.
