Didn’t even know this was launching. Exciting times we live in...

EXPLODE

>>11982635
Cringe thread.

50 minutes to stream start

>>11982640
Launches basically every week, it seems. Soon they will become daily, and eventually, boring to watch.

>>11982641
No

Some of you guys are alright. Don't stand near Pad 39A tonight.

>>11982645
Cringe post. The guy who makes the launch threads is based.

nighttime launch means seeing the droneship light up as the engines start burning for the landing. always fun to see

>open stream
>Walt Jr starts talking
and I'm out

>>11982704
Houston's at 70.8%
Family land out in the country nearby (where I'd actually want starlink) is at 71.6%
Gonna be a while, it seems

>>11982720
gotta be at least 44°N initially.

>>11982724
I have no illusions about getting into the beta at this stage, just itching to have a different ISP than Hughesnet

Live!

>>11982635
why was this mission delayed so much? is there a problem at spacex?

>>11982736
weather, range conflicts, technical issues

Did the other bitch get fired for leaking starlink stuff

>chink infiltrator host
SpaceX slipping

This person's new. Goddamn, she needs a drink.

>>11982745
apparently not but plebbit got hit with takedown requests lol

>>11982736
They already launched like 20 times this year lmao

this lady is a terrible speaker

Did Jessie seriously get fucked this bad over the Starlink saga? This chink is no good.

Estronaut mods deleting every other comment lmao

>>11982754
But probably have magnificent body

will they catch? place your bets

AHHHH SEXY INSPRUCKER IN THE HOUSE

INSPRUCKER!!!!!!!
The stream is saved.

>>11982761
All two

Sprucky on site

Keep him in for the rest of the stream, please

>REPLACED BY A CHINK
F for Jesse, KEK.

I wonder if the regular commentators ever tire of explaining rocket basics every stream

>>11982756
>>11982768
chink can't talk for shit, but she looks a lot nicer t b h

>>11982768
CHINK'D

can we just keep this guy as commentator instead of femoids

reminder

range is green...

1 min!

>>11982775
What makes this worse is that 90% of trump supporters are most likely flat earthers as well lmao

EXPLOSION

5th flight of this first stage!

thrust

bucket

how long until internet is not shit enough to get proper HD streams instead of this shitty compression

>>11982790
>
looks fine to me

>>11982790
Uncompressed FullHD or 4K needs very high speeds

launch failure confirmed>>11982788

>>11982635
There are planned 12000 SL satellites, still a long way to go, are SL services already available?

>>11982783
What makes this worse is that 90% of trump supporters are most likely flat earthers as well lmao
No, most are your average "America went to the moon fuck yeah" types. IIRC there was a poll that showed millenials had the highest percentage of flat earthers.

>US Space Empire is coming less then 50 years


When is space acceleration going to happen?

>>11982792
>looks fine to me

>>11982796
It's in beta right now in some locations

>>11982796
>are SL services already available?
elon made a twitter shitpost on it

>>11982798
When the space economy gets going. The amount of money to be made up there is gonna outperform earth within the decade

>>11982798
>space acceleration
Mid 2030s, when SpaceX begins sending actual colonists to Mars and when moon mining starts becoming a major industry.

>>11982796
they're rolling out beta test services. 700,000 people have signed up for it so far, of course only a small number will get test terminals. While 30,000+ satellites is the complete constellation plan, they only need like ~4 more launches after this for initial public service

>>11982799
thats your garbage internet anon, mine is pure and clean

>>11982799
>>it looks fine to me
It doesn't matter if it looks fine to you retard, the data shows it looks like shit

come on home B1051!

>>11982798
When SS/SH is operational. In the interest of fairness I'll toss New Glenn in there too.

night launches rule, god damn rockets are pretty

>those RCS bursts in the dark
kino

>>11982810
30000 satellites? Is not any complain for the use of orbits and the huge orbital trash and debris that this will left?

>>11982817
dusk/dawn launches are the best.

>>11982823
what the fuck are they gonna do about it?

touchdown, perfect as usual

>>11982823
LEO means quick deorbit of junk

PERFECT LANDING

So if the US becomes a space empire, should the US resort to 13 stars as they colonize planets?

>>11982793
If I remember correctly 4K is somewhere around 5TB for 1 hour of uncompressed video

Another one

>>11982823
based retard

fuck yeah perfect landing!

>>11982823
They're in a low enough orbit, to not be an issue
They'll bleed off speed an reenter the atmosphere naturally after a few years

bit o' post-landing discharge there, Stage 1. You alright?

NOOOOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST RE-USE YOUR ROCKETS

Starlink deploy at t+01:33:00. Who here /stayinguplate/? Now that they show the cool tension rods release it's worth it

>>11982828
I dunno...rape Musk?
Wonder if was possible to do it with less satellites.

>gone from florida to almost newfoundland in the time it took to have a quick shitflinging about video quality
why are rockets so fast bros

how long until fairing capture?

>>11982833
>If the US becomes a space empire
You mean WHEN the US becomes a space empire

SpaceX just launched and landed two different types of rockets within a few days.

>>11982854
And you need to focus on portland goy.

>>11982849
you need the satellite density for the overall system throughput. Really, you could cover the whole globe with not that many starlink sats. but then your customer base would be tiny

>>11982849
It’s possible but would require higher orbits and therefore higher latencies.

>Night-time landing
>No cut at all
You fucking serious, come on man
>STILL ENJOYED IT THO

>>11982851
deploy is happening so late they might mention it in the stream. But I think they take like 20 min to descend? Not sure desu

>>11982851
it's usually around 40 minutes after launch I think

>>11982859
Alright, what is this anyways? Cellphone repeaters in space?

>>11982863
Good point, ty

>>11982869
beam internet to satellites, satellites beam internet back down. LEO so low latency.

>The real purpose of Starlink is to monopolize space launch capability so only Soacex can have clear launch windows beyond LEO

>optical intersatellite links
BASED

>>11982894
not gonna happen for a while

It's crazy how many are up there already. I spotted three within five minutes last night and wasn't even looking for them. Going to be nonstop once the constellation is complete

>>11982903
have you seen a big string of em? saw the ~3rd batch the day or so after launch going over Denver. Coolest fucking thing

>>11982903
>Inb4 Kessler syndrome

>>11982910
>Elon is not the one stuck with us
>We are all stuck here with Elon

>>11982913
>Elon can activate Kessler syndrome any time he wants if the left starts a civil war, knocking everything out so they wont take a advantage

ELON YOU'RE IN CONTROL

>>11982907
Not yet, will try to after this deployment though. Do you remember the site/app you used?

>>11982751
Where can I see the links?

>>11982921

>>11982928
fuck I meant the leaks by jessie

>>11982931
lol it wasn't anything cool really, just the packaging and the terminal, which we already have pics of already. & musk wasn't lying that the two steps are plug in and point at sky

F for the fairings :(

She sounds retarded but in a cute way

>>11982957
Sometimes they take forever to confirm catch or not

noooo you can't take away my waifu

Blacksky sats released, next up is Starlink sats

Coming up on deploy! Don’t want to miss it.

The fact that the new starlink sats have visors pisses me off. I actually was looking foward to looking up at the sky and seeing them.

Fucking luddites.

>>11983014
You’ll still be able to see em before they reorientate and get to operational altitude

SPROING

And that’s a wrap.

Why did they hide tension rod deployment again?

https://youtu.be/K1b8AhIsSYQ

>Starship

>>11983025
I think they actually lost connection this time.

>>11982756
>Fucked
She fucked herself for trying to use SpaceX to get clout and violating her NDA.

>>11983016
I meant, I wanted to go outside at nighttime and see a constant weaving lattice of 30,000 starlink satellites

>>11983029
Anymore details?

Good deploy!
595, fucking hell. Starlink satellites will rapidly become the majority of satellites in orbit, period. The Outer Space Objects Index lists 5993 in orbit at the moment, so 10% of those are already Starlink.

>>11983032
That's just my suspicion and I still don't know if she got fired or permanently removed from hosting launches. I think she flew too close to the sun by trying to become an influencer on the side and violating the NDA was the last straw. I imagine that SpaceX doesn't want anyone besides Shotwell and Elon becoming the face of the company.

>>11983032
>>11983047
To clarify, I don't think she got fired because she keeps posting about SpaceX on her twitter. Her removal from hosting may just be temporary.

>>11983047
I was just looking it up. Is the NDA you speak of the unboxing videos of her with some Starlink equipment?

I used to like her until I went on her social media and saw all the SJW bullshit. This is funny if true.

>>11983093
make the flame pinkish purple and its perfect

>>11983093
If only pic related were the actual plan for Artemis.
Big Jim, if you're reading this, you can land people on the moon by 2024 or probably earlier if you just have someone build modular chain-together kick stages that can launch to LEO on a F9 or FH.

>>11982876
innanet go up
innanet go down

>>11982853
Still a pretty big if. We first have to survive the self-inflicted divisive political climate that threatens to reduce the country to a stagnant, EU-esque "republic"

>>11983644
>(((self-inflicted)))

>>11983652
I didn't want to be that on the nose about it, but you are correct
