Thanks Elysia and the whole NSF team!

@krossbolt4100 Месяц назад

Elysia, you are, by a long, long way, the best presenter of NSF. All to do with your smooth, uninterrupted delivery (I don't think you corrected yourself even once) and professional image. Thank you.

@dr4d1s Месяц назад

Thanks for the weekly update TWiS Team! I really enjoy the breakdown of the weeks launches along with their trajectories and orbits. It's interesting and helpful to see the numbers visualized. The Starlink total running count vs how many are operational or deorbited is always mind-boggling. Plus, guessing what earrings Elysia might be wearing is a fun game to play. I'm typically wrong as I am with most things in life. Keep up the great work NSF and I will keep coming back. Thanks again!

@MrKellymcilrath Месяц назад

Dang I didn’t realize how iconic this week was! Total solar eclipse, delta heavy last flight… Those are some big events for just one week. We were lucky enough to live in the direct path. It was only a little bit south of you guys though so it was also quite cloudy but we all had such an awesome time and still caught glimpses of the eclipse.

@pipersall6761 Месяц назад

Elysia, you always do a great job with your reports. You also have a nice collection of space themed earrings.

3 1/2 minutes of perfect clear sky totality in Island Falls Maine. Almost no traffic issues. Awesome!

Thanks for the run-down of this week. As someone stuck in the UK for the eclipse, thank you for all the excellent coverage. Looked amazing! Looked spooky! Going though the launches, I lolled at "For the 3rd Falcon 9 launch this week" and lolled again cos I forgot there was a 4th. Crazy times! Relentless.

@larrydonovan1293 Месяц назад

I went to Rochester (from California) and saw what Elysia and Das saw. Totality is pretty awesome, even on a cloudy day!

The 1999 eclipse was during my brothers birthday party, one kid was running about while everyone else was sitting watching with the proper glasses and that kid ended up with glasses like 2 weeks later and his eyes are like an old man’s at 32 year old and we swears the party incident never happened 😂

The fact that Delta is completed around 700 in 65 years and the Falcon family has 300 flights in a fraction of the time is illustrative of the revolution that Space X started and now includes other companies. This is a new golden age of Space Exploration. We also have the extraordinary programs from India and China.

@gabrielgolding5380 Месяц назад

I’m so excited to see the private space sector starting to build space stations! It’s going to be really cool to see what they come up with.

@k29king1 Месяц назад

I didn’t get to see totality here in NYC, but I got to say the partial 90% eclipse was pretty dang close, here only a sliver of the sun was visible while the rest was blocked out, instead of a crescent moon we got a crescent sun and while it did not get fully dark it went from daylight to what its like at the very end of sunset right back to regular sunlight, while not totality it was still very exceptionally profound.

@daniellederman9676 Месяц назад

@mikegardner107 Месяц назад

That launch from Vandenberg was also seen by many people further east, in New Mexico.

@michaelcox1071 Месяц назад

I was in Cape Girardeau, MO, and the eclipse was great. Some high altitude haze, but otherwise clear. The birds kept singing, dogs kept being dogs, but all these humans behaviors changed abruptly. They made weird noises, ran around, and were generally silly.

@michaelcox1071 Месяц назад

P.S. I really like the Falcon Heavy and Sun earrings!

@DavidCNavas Месяц назад

Grew up in Rochester. Apologies to you and Das on behalf of one of the cloudiest cities in NY :|

@NASASpaceflight Месяц назад

Honestly the clouded view was well worth it. Seeing the shadow of the moon approaching on the bottom of the clouds is something you miss out on if it's clear. Got way darker, too... like a double eclipse. - Das

@keiryorellana8258 Месяц назад

Wow

@BabyMakR Месяц назад

With the raptor shutting down video, at what point could it still be throttled back up? Like, if it got down to the pulsating rings stage, could they throttle it back up again?

@romec3435 Месяц назад

There's more than one ideal fuel mixture... least unburned fuel, most thrust, etc... which ideal did they hit on the engine?

Delta Delta Delta, can I help ya help ya help ya😂 classic movie quote from “Nerds”

@Bora_H Месяц назад

With Starship nearing readiness, perhaps Falcon 9 will be retired. SpaceX could license / open source the design to other ( friendly ) ( ITAR ) nations. I think much of Europe ( and others! ) would love to have a capable, low cost launcher under their own control.

@EMichaelBall Месяц назад

Falcon will still be useful for Dragon and Dragon XL missions.

“If it’s kerolox it’s orange if it’s methane it’s blue” - Elysia

@LSspaceReal Месяц назад

We will miss the delta IV

@caldodge Месяц назад

The orange glow from fuel rich kerolox engines is from unburned carbon particles burning when they hit atmospheric oxygen. If you watch a Spacex launch, you'll see the orange gradually diminish as the atmosphere gets thinner, and the exhaust becomes blacker from unburned carbon.

@ale131296 Месяц назад

It is mainly from film cooling. What you describe is for the exhaust plume *after* it has exited the nozzle but before that the plume is still orange on M1D. The RD-180 is the exact same cycle and mixture ratio as E-2 but it uses heavy amounts of fuel as cooling for the engine nozzle and the inside of the combustion chamber walls, creating a much more fuel rich environment past the combustion chamber that lowes the temperature of the exhaust which creates the orange glow. E-2 uses liquid oxygen for cooling and little to not film cooling so the exhaust temperature remains high even when several feet away from the engine. You can see the orange effect that you mention doesn't happen until much further away from the engine

@CaptainQ2607 Месяц назад

Does anyone know how long a time period that Raptor video was slowed down from?

@ale131296 Месяц назад

It was a roughly one minute video and shutdown takes about one second so roughly 60x that it was slowed down

@CaptainQ2607 Месяц назад

Much appreciated ❤

@charleslord2433 Месяц назад

Those earrings look pretty 'heavy' 😄

@stonelaughter Месяц назад

That explains the "WHOOOOP!" noise when they shut down Raptors on the ground...

@ale131296 Месяц назад

That's the turbopumps which are present on all Raptor engines. That's why you hear the honk even on sea level Raptors (which do not experience flow separation like RVac)

@_mikolaj_ Месяц назад

The honk doesnt come from the nozzle but from turbopumps spooling down

@MrTsuvi Месяц назад

Elysia not only sounds beautiful, she is also beautiful

@@hamzahkhan8952 that's a very stupid rejection from you. There is absolute always need for human identification on something giving off a natural after effect. Primarily as it is causing distress & confusion to people on the ground.

@hamzahkhan8952 Месяц назад

@@UmmerFarooq-wx4yo a rocket in flight would be producing flames and exhaust which would allow anyone to know it is a rocket. and anyone who would get worried about one would soon realize, with just a few seconds of observation, that it would obviously be heading away from them and not toward them. also, people who are most likely to see these launches (those who live near launch sites) would be well aware of these events and might be given warnings of such events occurring.
