I love the bit where it always goes all Schrödinger’s cat on us as it lands, in that the picture blanks out and there is a good second or two so where the booster could or could not exist anymore. :slight_smile: :cat2:

Everyday Astronaut YouTuber doing a long walk around with Elon (Pt 1 of 3). Super interesting.

The fully stacked Starship + Booster was also great to watch. Can’t wait to see it fly.

Fascinating look at not only the building of a spaceport, but also an interesting view of Elon’s thought processes.

That’s exactly what I was thinking…I was just listening to his thought process in awe, it was very cool to watch.

That was a fascinating interview. It’s hard not to be impressed by Elon Musk. He might put his foot in his mouth at times, but there is no denying that he thinks at a completely different level than most of us.

Part 3 video is up and it is really interesting when they go to the pad and hear the ‘shop talk’. Eric Berger writes of some of the issues with the Blue Origin engines here (link below) and in part 3 you can see how SpaceX is trying to operate ‘part rich’.
