@dickpenisballs2 @stratospunky Wow now you seems to be the one who doesn't know how rockets work smh

@ZGiven71084 @jMarkNettles @elonmusk I mean if Musk tells you 2+2=5 do you belive it as well? Think for yourself, this is obviously footage from the booster. I don't know why he said otherwise, perhaps he was tired after a long launch day,

@dickpenisballs2 @stratospunky Enlighten us

@Zadigcln @CSI_Starbase 4 engines produce more than 10% of the thrust. That's a lot if it's missing the entire flight.

@philosophymeme0 This is one for @CosmicSkeptic

@CSI_Starbase I'm always unreasonably hyped for new CSI Starbase videos. I'm looking forward to it almost as much as to flight 12, and now we get both! I'd definetly be a member if I wasn't broke 😅

@mawoods076 @CSI_Starbase It's true that the visible clouds are water vapor. But the Gas that was vented didn't just dissapear. It's low temperature caused condensation, but the gas is still there, traveling with that cloud.

@AB_Walker @DJSnM @Docquistador So once utopia is reached we are allowed to leave earth? Realistically there will always be deep concerning problems in any large society but earth is a better place today then at any point in the past. We won't ever fix all problems.

[Brokeman @_Brockmann_]

@Vicious_Vanta @StatisticalMind @DJSnM @Docquistador So you wanting humanity to die here is good and not wanting that is evil? Crazy logic...

@dunck14 @CSI_Starbase @anti_taxes_za They'll probably just use it for starlink launches until the vehicle has proven itself. I mean the current version only has a slim starlink door anyway.

@superheavy25 @Friendship718 @jackywacky_3 If I'm not mistaken, they couldn't even do that if they wanted to because the engines used ablative heat shielding.

@MemesOfMars @elonmusk @grok 1600 tons is exactly the amount of propellant that goes into the upper stage alone.

@LinusEkenstam @GeneSohoForum The upper middle class in the country side might be able to use solar (so those who are able to afford it anyway), but that is hardly a representitive portion of the population. The largerst portion pays more for energy while having effectively less to spend due to inflation.

@mmeijeri @SciGuySpace If you cancel SLS and Orion America won't be able to get back to the moon this decade. SLS and Orion should and probably will be canceled once a private alternative exists. But this will take many more years.

@saxushu @fentrocity @CommiNathan @ChiFredericks @rookisaacman @lrocket @NASAAdmin If a mission critical problem arises on a launch vehicle before liftoff, it hasn't been ready to launch. It's that simple. They roll the SLS to the pad to find these unforeseen problems. The fact that the rest of the WDR was successful means nothing if other problems persist.

@ThreeDeDaniel @CSI_Starbase "... about Starship Pad 34"

[Brokeman @_Brockmann_]

@JessieJansons @wokebait @NASASpaceflight I'm not aware of any super heavy launch vehicle that has lauched without any form of flame diverter system. I was really suprised they attempted it at all and not at all suprised by the result.

[Brokeman @_Brockmann_]

@tyuuyttyuuy @StarshipGazer because rocket exhaust hot

[Brokeman @_Brockmann_]

@Robby_Alomar @WaywardSeafarer @INiallAnderson That doesn't mean it won't be open for the public.

[Brokeman @_Brockmann_]

@johnbeach001 @Erdayastronaut @CSI_Starbase It would take many years to develop and certify it for crewed flights. In that time they'd be able to solve full reusability, orbital refueling and maybe even crewed launches.
