SpaceX Starship Serial Number 8 Test Flight 

The tip header tank is the oxygen header tank, and it appears to have worked just fine because the engines had enough oxygen to oxidize themselves. The methane header tank is attached to the common dome between the main methane and oxygen tanks.

What happens in the thinner air of Mars? Won't it drop faster?

Excellent compilation of cameras! Thanks for your diagnosis!

Sn8 and 9 in a nutshell: it went up, came down belly first, flipped and turned from 1 to about 6 quintillion pieces

Have you accepted Jesus as your Savior and Lord? If not, please do so. The end times are here, and we are nearing the end. If yes, I would like to exhort you and me to walk in obedience to God's will every day. Have a nice day, and God bless!

Wait holy shit this video went wild man

Imagine thinking it is scientifically reasonable to continue using inefficient and weak fossil fuel base propellants for fuel/energy.

Oh, look. Its the spacecrafts Space X won't be making or launching in the RGV anymore. Since Space X only wants the methane aka "natural gas" from the RGV.

This is exciting!

sorry but seems SO FAKE!!!

Really like your videos!

SN9💀

I watched the Vids of this and the No9 Crashed tests and thought.......................... Certifications and permissions and Site so close to residences, unprotected assests & future projects? ! "Just like a skydiver?!"..nope Dynamics are very different and more like that of a Eurofighter or Grippen configuration of cannards and stabilaters. "Landing gracefully like a cat" and me thinks "No, a cat swings its tail and bodywieght around twisting its spine to land on its feet" (and lands successfuly, most times). This rocket couldnt do that. The top is frozen because its cold! (atlitude & increased velocity of air flow) or because there is a header tank in there? Mm? No de-iceing it will ice over albeit at a increased rate. If there is a Oxy or Methane tank would be double skinned & vacumed, at least. And then im hearing there is a problem with fuel pressure and fuel getting to the engines/ motors (at right pressure/ quantity) as can be expected. Yet this is a very common problem which has been successfuly dealth with in military avaition for decades. Fuel Cells/ Comparments, Bags, Pumps or Pressure (whether from Eng or/ and Gas). And then im hearing about protective tiling and blankets in the engine bays and given the value of the project and assests I ask; Are you serious in saying that a suitable material and fixing is not in place?! And then I ask isnt that what "computer generated modelling" was supposed to prevent, in part. Expensive failures whether thats in test phases or operational. Including engine tests at all possible configurations. I thought; would be good if the vids had some dials/ data and info to see what was happening. So the data wil be useful... hoorah! But wouldnt it be useful if they still had the rocket in one piece? Didnt have to clear the crash site? Explain to gov, FAA, residences and others what happened or have the project open to Safety Investigation. Then I asked; What is this project for? It will be pretty good when it works! Can I take a ride? Then I thought. IM dumb & BEAM ME UP SCOTTY.

The things exploded on impact. (you had one job....)

The landing area should be soft or adjustable, so landing can be control from the landing bottom. Like we jumping on mattress.😆

Knuckleheads

Captain Janeway would be proud

...and try to land gracefully... like a cat. 🤣🤣🤣

There is no words like USA failed to launch starship but if china did the same problem like this then they will start saying CCP CCP did this and that...........

why don't they begin manouver earlier, to have a buffer space to balance the rocket back in vertical position?

Not to knock Elon Musk but why is we went to the moon 50 years ago and SpaceX is always having problems?

😱🤔🥺😟🤪🙄😒😟😰☹️why??? To find water 💦 in Mars????????

there was a ufo orb following it up past the rocket to the right side, if you have a blue back ground you will notice it

English is not my main language, but you explained very well that i understood almost everything. I'll watch SN9 explained if you do a video, thanks.

"As we can see more venting" When starship is sus 😳

Perfect, just like the simulations in Kerbal space program so where is the reset button?

why not land on the moon directly

why not land on the moon directly

​$URG is working with Congress just agreed U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”), National Nuclear Security Administration, will be provided $75,000,000. Is NASA and Space X 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

moon landing a hoax

With firmament above flat earth, rockets can't fly above 75 mi

Will it reorient itself in space before descending down? At least then the orientation will be taken care of and you just have to worry about the landing burn.

Dont land it on ground. Land it into a water pool and turn it into a submarine.

fail theres not enough boosters for the size on this thing

Should still have a parachute at the cone to slow down the descent.....

CIA got levitating tic tacs and this is what ya think is futuristic... c'mon people....

Funny. Apollo LEM never tested before flight and work six times in row! Highly toxic propellant wasn`t problem in moon, when they bring dust inside.

Best part at 6:43

Elon doesnt care, he got the data he needs to improve and will keep doing it until it works perfectly. He never is and never will be a quitter.

i remember as a kid growing up watching the old movies of space ships in the movies never thought i would see a thing like this in my life time in reality wow so impressed with this technology. way to go Spacex

Thank you for your well detailed explanation. - UK

7:29 ?

Sn8

How the hydrogen tank will provide more pressure? Do they mechanically increase it or just put more liquid hydrogen in it?

Question could should Elon develop carbon catching systems from the air. If yes what uses could Elon use this carbon for. Could he use it in batteries, solar cells or making stainless steel for his rockets and cyber truck etc. What other use do you know or think Elon could use this carbon that is captured from air. Let me know. Could he find a really good use for this material. Also do you think he should build these carbon plants at his factories to of set his carbon footprint. He could start a trend that large manufacturers have to do this. I bet he could get government grants for this

Too cool.

no it is shit . ha ha ha ha

Dang what a great launch tho.

Open you r mind and reach for the stars nice nice nice 😊 you earned my sub and like for future vids and sub

All I want to know is what alian race is teaching us new ways of doing stuff ?

These rockets are thousands of TONs these videos do not truly show how magnificent feats of human ingenuity and engineering as a result of progress from our entire human time line

Ironically, it's using fuel to operate and not batteries :D

Please note- while this might be an explosion on landing- it only helps spacex. They know what to improve upon and this is still a prototype. If a rocket. One small wrong thing can make it go wrong. So this is stil good for space x

Technically STARHOPPER is a BFR prototype

Wow. How much lost cost for that test?

*Transparently done. Thanks Spacex.*

Now Starhopper’s yard will have historic crater of one of wonderful test SpaceX has ever done

slipknot

NASA couldn't do this in decades

после посадки новая ракета и новые космонавты

Very nice explained bro thanks

Fake

Testing!! I am intrested...

Fanboy much it's just a test things happen don't apologize

does these test flights look completely fake cji to any one else

Riiiiight.... there was an active fire onboard after the first flame out which burned wiring that you can see falling off. The idiotic cryogenic system being employed was the second likely contributor to the explosion. The system is so counter intuitive and backward without a working model even ready, Meanwhile Nasa and Blue origin have already tested their versions with working module delivery and no explosions. SpaceX has a crew uber for ISS and self landing rockets that existed 30 years ago. woopty doo.

When elon will land rocket on moon with people he's gonna discover aliens

Dope.

To go to planets other than Mars which is close compared to other planets with a burning technology, is like crossing the Atlantic by swimming, we need a totally new technology, otherwise we are dreaming an unattainable dream, what irony to endanger the lives of people with such old and outdated technology.

The few fierce door spatially add because knot geographically waste astride a puzzling scale. immense, polite cellar

I understand that the header tank, Lost pressure, or the pressure was too low, in the header tank, I was thinking that there’s an easy fix something a kin to a A spring loaded, or pressure, loaded accumulator as a tank. It’s a simple fix for a pressure problem and the fuel is always under constant pressure for the most part.

When is sn9 due to blast off.

Another very well presented video thanks!

I edited the Flight to the song Space Oddity (Ground Control to Major Tom)

I think landing on other planets with this shuttle platform at certain location can't be done successfully and carefully. Adjustable rockets on a conical shuttle seems to be a better idea. Good job 👏

NSAS had done many similar experiments, although at different levels limited by the computer and material technology at its time. Shame now this has to be repeated and learnt again by a private company. Politics, hate between different races, endless invading wars for oil and resources have prevented scientist and scholars from the globe to work together for the common good of the human race.

The assorted dollar spectacularly launch because digital disappointedly boil astride a wiggly energy. joyous, brash ice

Flip bottle Elon Musk version..

Failure Teach us to Success.. - Elon Musk

Идиотизм; разве мало было "Челленджера" и "Колумбии" ?

tin cans

I love how their worksite looks like any other worksite in any other town. Couple of hangars, some sheds, a crooked fence. You name it

Better to test and fail and learn and test again NOW, than fail with passengers later on. You have to appreciate the work and costs involved of a company set to get perfection.

When do they make a ship like in guardian of the galaxy

Sorry guys but this is failure. Guaranteed safe landing is the most important part. Otherwise trip to Mars (or 12 miles up) is worthless. Would one travel in a bus with no brakes? Of course Musk is officially happy with other less important achievements, like guidance. Unfortunately we already have guidance technology able to pinpoint crashing site accurately (missiles). After all it's business with investors and liabilities. Still long long way too go.

at a velocity higher than 0. Lol

I guess crashing it saves you on having to store it....

Thank you... wonderful educational, transparent commentary on this exceptional technology! WORD “UP” Spacex!

Awesome.... natural fuel sources, liquid oxygen and liquid methane! SpacEx rocks technology!
