Ever wondered what it takes to create a #Starship launch animation from Pad 39A?

Over 2 years of:
modeling, simulating large-scale smoke plumes, compositing, refining, and solving complex software and hardware challenges behind every frame.

Deconstructed layer by layer in a full VFX breakdown of the #Starship launch animation.

There’s a lot of talk in this community...

Here’s the difference: I actually build.

- WIP PREVIEW! -
Of my Pad39A Starship launch animation 🚀

Still refining (smoke, lighting, compositing) — and the final version will include sound effects and music to bring it fully to life.

@AJamesMcCarthy The sky is mad as well:

@Mookafish I dont know if I will be there by then...

[3DDaniel @ThreeDeDaniel]

@AJamesMcCarthy How long have you been photographing rockets?

[3DDaniel @ThreeDeDaniel]

@RyanHansenSpace @BambulabGlobal Looking good. 🤟🏻

Well, my first 2 prints on the @BambulabGlobal H3C are completed! Very impressed so far. Easiest first prints on a printer I've ever experienced. It did exactly what it was supposed to without issues. Grid fin was previously designed by me for an unannounced project. Wall thickness is 0.8mm so it requires a lot of retractions with a 0.4mm nozzle to draw each square. Handled it flawlessly. The base was designed in 15min and printed within 45min. First multicolor print I've ever done. This is the 3F printing user experience I've been missing.

@LukeLeisher Dude thought someone talking about Pad39A lol

SpaceX’s proposed Starship spaceport in Louisiana certainly makes for a fascinating setting in VR.

Standing virtually among the massive launch structures while playing Beat Saber offers a rather unique perspective on the facility.

@OliviaStalvey And i live in Germany, which makes traveling there pretty expensive

@mightbejell0 @TiagoNugent @SpaceBasedFox How is Texas so far?

Super Heavy moved to the launch pad at Starbase. Booster 22 is the first Super Heavy V3 booster planned to return to the launch site for catch and was used for final catch testing upon arrival, including a suspended squeeze test at catch height

According to a Norwegian aviation notice, Isar Aerospace could launch its third Spectrum rocket as early as 26 November.

@SkunksWork looking great!

[Space Skunk @SkunksWork]

It’s gonna be so weird for me going back after 3 years to the month for flight 15.

Since I went to see Flight 2, the tank farm was completely revamped, OLM 2 began and finished construction with 3 flights under its belt, megabay 2 finished construction, highbay was destroyed, gigabay started construction, Star Factory was completed, Highway 4 was re-paved, V1 retired, V2 entered service and retired, V3 entered service, hopper moved to Danger Lot, OML 1 retired for renovation, Massey’s entered service, and so much more. I can’t wait to see everyone down there and meet the RGV team in person for the first time. My next post will be tomorrow morning when I leave.

Ad astra per aspera.

This is how it will look like

@Truthful_ast Even if it were my first launch I would still bring a camera with a good telephoto lens. Lol.
