IFT-1 9.84% too pessimistic, 10.66% correct, 79.51% too optimistic. Staging failed.
IFT-2 32.03% too pessimistic, 18.45% correct, 49.52% too optimistic. Starship failed before reaching intended fractional orbit.

No :
-What killed the booster is bad plumbing. The booster turns, the fuel sloshes around, the engine sucks air , kaboom
-What killed the ship was the hydraulic TVC (the HPU) which exploded . The ship was not in control anymore -> FTS

We are at the point where I don't think I believe this arhument anymore. I legit think that SpaceX could build a stockpile of engines (& boosters & tankers) fast enough to keep up to the HLS launch schedule without reusability. It would be more expensive & rate limited obviously but I think SpaceX could brute force it to make NASA happy if necessary.

he has no proof for the HPU failure, but it is the most reasonable point of failure that would get the AFTS to activate. other options for starship failure are a failure of one or more engines, possibly also plumbing related. the autogenous pressurization could have had some unknown issue occur when the tanks get near empty, or maybe a turbo sucked some gas. other anons have theorized that the loss of communications made the AFTS go off, but starship uses 100% internal guidance and I don't think it needs ground telemetry to keep flying, so I don't buy the loss of comms abort mode idea.

Tiles are fine & will work perfectly once SpaceX gets Starship to the point of actually testing the heat shield. Just like every other tech problem on Starship, they go on a priority list and get solved once it makes sense to focus on solving them.

Starlink doesn't NEED Starship. F9 cost down and reusability is way ahead of the curve and could complete the constellation. Elon upsized the new Starlink to fit his Starship for building his Mars Reich, because he was building it anyway, but that wasn't a requirement.
Frankly, if SpaceX had a real Board of Directors, they never would have signed-off the new sats and Starship. It's not a cost effective plan for actual revenue for 10 years.

Well thats it. No major pad damage, no fuckups over land. FWS will probably fuck off. FAA will require that SpaceX fix whatever caused the booster explosion. Meanwhile SpaceX does its S28 and B10 testing campaigns. IFT-3 probably done in january 2024, then IFT-4, 5, 6 and 7 maybe more if PEA is altered. Bet it reaches orbit and re-enters perfectly by 4. And a pad at the cape will hopefully be built by end of 2024. We're out of the doom era.

IFT-1 repairs were way more difficult and extensive. A lot of that booster testing was slowed down by the fact that they needed to repair the launch pad. There was a whole debris area that wasn't cleared because of FWS being slow. FTS problems were also quite severe which probably made FAA much nore hesitant to approve quickly. 2 months makes more sense.

During the attempted relight of stage-1, you can see it attempted to relight the inner ring of engines but about half actually did. I bet it threw the booster in to a bad arc and the force of the spin caused fueling issues that resulted in FTS activation.

Possible. It still seemed like the booster really took off after stage separation, not nearly as aggressive as F9 (granted they are different rockets, but still). Or it could have been the camera angle. Just shit posting until we get an official word.

I have a theory i would like to talk about :
The ship , at the 6min mark , we can see a big puff of something. Just before that it was travelling at ~6km/s . The amount of fuel it had was definitely not enough to reach orbit. The ship was underperforming big time , there is no way they was barely with any fuel left and still had 1.7km/s left to reach orbit and without any payload.

Unlikely given they weren't perturbed by 33 firing in close proximity.
Much more likely to be something along the lines of slosh, ullage collapse and bubble ingestion given the sporty maneuver.

Correct , but partially. Why? The ship has to arrive at orbit with at least 150t of fuel left . There is no way that the ship would be empty just to reach orbit with no payload

Both Starship and especially the Booster were underfueled. It was fueled just enough to make the suborbital flight plan. Not for a 150 tonne payload to LEO.

No they just glued the tiles at all the seams and knew it was shit.
Newer tiles are still glued in places but they started testing each one with a suction cup.

Yeah but the 33 engines were firing from below. The sudden pressure/deceleration from the Starship engines firing on top must feel like hitting a wall.

Creating all sorts of half baked reporting that nearly every single media has lost their credibility today. It was worse than Trump reporting and worse than covid reporting. It wasnt just piss yellow reporting, but absolute turd reporting all over the industry.

some tankwatchers have also been tracking the serial numbers of the raptors that have been installed in the boosters and starships, but I don't know where the cutoff is for R1 vs R2 and how substantially they change (so a early run R2 might be pretty shit compared to a recent R2 for instance)

The Franfurt Marxist school of thought originated during the cold war in Europe. The original marxist ideology promoted the idea of poor workers vs rich elites. However that didn't pan out with how American success showed everyone can own a car, live in comfortable lifestyle, have a home, etc. So the ideology then shifted the nature of "capital" from purely money to identity politics, which is what American left is doing. But nu-marxism isn't just imported to America, it spread across the Europe as they too began to experience the power of capitalism. The exploitation of minorities in the US AND in Europe isn't random, its the nu-marxist ideology at work. The nu-marxist critique is that "cis white males" is a form of capital that needs to be taken away with force.

Hardware is cheap.
Engineering hours are not.
You can spend years with hundreds of engineers (all on engineer salaries) and figure out every possible failure mode on every part and maybe get something that works first go.
Or you can build rockets that may have flaws in a quarter of the time and figure out what fails afterwards, you don't spend money on so many expensive eggheads and instead pay for much cheaper general laborers and get much of the same data.

It amazes me that so many allegedly "educated" people have fallen so quickly and so hard for a fraudulent fabrication of such laughable proportions. The very idea that a gigantic ball of rock happens to orbit our planet, showing itself in neat, four-week cycles -- with the same side facing us all the time -- is ludicrous. Furthermore, it is an insult to common sense and a damnable affront to intellectual honesty and integrity. That people actually believe it is evidence that the liberals have wrested the last vestiges of control of our public school system from decent, God-fearing Americans (as if any further evidence was needed! Daddy's Roommate? God Almighty!)
Documentaries such as Enemy of the State have accurately portrayed the elaborate, byzantine network of surveillance satellites that the liberals have sent into space to spy on law-abiding Americans. Equipped with technology developed by Handgun Control, Inc., these satellites have the ability to detect firearms from hundreds of kilometers up. That's right, neighbors .. the next time you're out in the backyard exercising your Second Amendment rights, the liberals will see it! These satellites are sensitive enough to tell the difference between a Colt .45 and a .38 Special! And when they detect you with a firearm, their computers cross-reference the address to figure out your name, and then an enormous database housed at Berkeley is updated with information about you.

Of course, this all works fine during the day, but what about at night? Even the liberals can't control the rotation of the Earth to prevent nightfall from setting in (only Joshua was able to ask for that particular favor!) That's where the "moon" comes in. Powered by nuclear reactors, the "moon" is nothing more than an enormous balloon, emitting trillions of candlepower of gun-revealing light. Piloted by key members of the liberal community, the "moon" is strategically moved across the country, pointing out those who dare to make use of their God-given rights at night!
Yes, I know this probably sounds paranoid and preposterous, but consider this. Despite what the revisionist historians tell you, there is no mention of the "moon" anywhere in literature or historical documents -- anywhere -- before 1950. That is when it was initially launched. When President Josef Kennedy, at the State of the Union address, proclaimed "We choose to go to the moon", he may as well have said "We choose to go to the weather balloon." The subsequent faking of a "moon" landing on national TV was the first step in a long history of the erosion of our constitutional rights by leftists in this country. No longer can we hide from our government when the sun goes down.

True. If you think about it, 7 months isn't that long time to do in-depth research study. I mean collecting all the data, analysis, writting it all down is a minimum 8 month job. Honestly, nine months is what we can expect if SpaceX can act swiftly and quits stalling the investigations.

SpaceX has produced ~400+ engines already. All of them cost less than a single RS-25 engine.
At ~$250K a unit on avg, 400 engines costs ~$100M.
A single RS-25 engine cost $146 million.

I'm gonna call BS over the 24124 km/h figure that was shown on stream then.
At that speed the suborbital trajectory should have been intercontinental.
But it was seen already reentering over Puerto Rico. That is way too soon.
Something doesn't add up.

Current Raptor 2 is a fairly mature engine. Musk and few other SpaceX engineers have stated that they're either at <$1000 per ton of thrust or very close to it. That was a while ago too, so it can be assumed as such. Ofcourse its a marginal cost and not the cost of paying employees/R/D and such, but thats not the point.

It's supposed to trigger an explosion that fragments the rocket into pieces that stop accelerating and are no danger to people on the ground. From what we saw that's a good 200-300kg of high explosive between Superheavy and Starship.

iirc the booster was at 3 minimum thrust raptors which is 50% of usual. if starship's vacuums and sea levels were all at 100%, then it could have had between 2x and 4x the thrust pushing down on the top of the booster. they might need to go as far as to cutting less engines to leave 4,5 or 6 at full throttle so starship can push off without decelerating the booster beyond gravity

I would be inclined to agree, but its not just a software problem, it's the interface between software and reality where the problem comes. You can't control the weather and the hundreds of tiny variables which change with every flight, so having such small margin will inevitably cause frequency of RUDs during catching to go up

A single engine provides more thrust at minimum throttle than the weight of the empty booster so it has to do a suicide burn to land. I want to say the min throttle is around 70% but I could be wrong. I think raptor can go as low as 20% or something like that, plus the booster is MUCH heavier.

IFT-3 will make it to reentry but tiles will fail, unless there are MAJOR redesigns to the process in how they put on tiles I dont see that changing. Good news is though, that means that expendable Starships will be ready to take on payloads.

It didn't start out that way, but the voting system pushed other viewpoints out of the commentariat (mass-downvoted posts are invisible to non-logged-in users, and must be manually inspected even if you are). Tying moderation into a popularity contest led to an easily anticipated result. I find that if you want to say something that goes against the consensus you must have an extremely well-argued point and it must be backed up with a citation for every claim. Sarcasm and FUD only work one way.

TSLAQ was more apolitical, people from both sides of the political spectrum who hate anything related to Elon because they hate Tesla, but the people in EnoughMuskScam seem to mostly be liberals and leftists who hate SpaceX because Elon Musk is politically right wing nowadays.
