Elon Musk Reveals Starship V3 is Coming! 

"It's too round on the top. It needs to be pointy!" he said. 😅😅

"I don't like regolith, it is Eletrostatyc, and it is everywere" Says Anakin Moonwalker

Starship Version 3 will be like NASA's Artemis SLS being used as a booster to launch NASA's Saturn 5 as a second stage.

After watching SpaceX, it is even more remarkable that we landed people on The Moon in the 1960s (60 years ago). SpaceX tested dozens of rockets to get to the Raptor engine and Falcon rockets. Not even to mention the advantages in computers, production sciences and materials. Even given all that they are just now ready for a Moon mission.

Sierra never ceases to impress.

at 1:35 always consider pointy end up, flamy end down ;-) quite ancient rocket wisdom

Pointier is scarier.

“I don’t like sand, it’s course and rough and it gets everywhere” ~ Anakin Skywalker. Hats Off

It’s hard to see how any lunar habitat can function long term without keeping the dust completely sealed outside. Space suit condoms and a mud room? Like a thin plastic film applied in the outside of the suit upon egress that is easily removed when returning to the habitat. Alternatively the idea of keeping the suits “docked” on the outside which astronauts can climb into may be the way to go. It would be awesome if electrostatics is enough to keep the suit clear.

The higher thrust on the V2 is because it will use Raptor 3s (maybe even 4?) not because of the tank stretch

the v3 had me laughing so hard, looks like someone just resize the image XD but its pretty cool

Will the rockets now emit colored fireworks when they explode as an upgrade?

I wouldn't be surprised if the wing design changes considerably for V3 Starships.

damn that thumbnail looks cool

Great video as always. Thank you!

Promises of success in the future, but will Starship ever be as outstanding as the Hyperloop?

The future is going to be amazing

Starship 3 stage two will have more than 2/3 the thrust of Saturn 5's stage one. Insane.

“Calling in strategem!” -Siera Space, probably.

Lots of people in the comments boasting about how powerful v3 is supposed to be, but v1 was supposed to be powerful too. There is more distance between what v1 delivers and what it was supposed to than there is between what v3 is supposed to deliver and what v1 was supposed to deliver.

really good video!

With V3 being taller , there should be a smaller section on top for astronauts similar to apollo

I love this channel

Thank You and a Job Well Done on being one of the Very Few Space channel's willing to discuss the Moon Dust issue. NASA doesn't talk about it but their last Apollo Missions w/ extended Moon excursions told the rather scary tale of what Moon Dust does to equipment & people. That stuff ruined and nearly disabled a LOT of equipment that was exposed and being statically charged make it a problem that can't be ignored. Without Weather to wear the stuff down, every particle is Razor Sharp and looking for a new home.

Perfect video 👍

Interesting times 👍🚀

Interesting topic about the moon dust

Yea yeah yeah. I'd have expected he said it would eventually work fine.

Sierra Space, it's all well and good for supplies, but what about reinforcements?

He is a smart person.

I think with the capability and the added load capacity V3 could have landing legs for the booster like the falcon rockets which I think would be safer and more flexibility when it comes to landing

Any taller and Starship can simply start in space!

great

Is this the beginning? Of space drop pods for soldiers. It looks very similar to a sci-fi soldier delivery system.

I would point that 2mln for Starship is related to internal cost of launch. Internal cost of launching reused Falcon 9 is ca 20 mln. Variable price is dependant on configuration of second stage, place where it desired landing, or fairing price. 67 mln is what SpaceX charging customers.

Always wondered why the N1 interstages were like that.

150 meters tall that is like a 50 story building. That is so huge!!!

They will need to increase the water pressure for the OLT with Raptor-3.

seems so fun and adventure

How far could Starship 3 take a 100 ton load. Not every flight needs to be "as much as it will carry" How fast could it go without any payload, just a speed run?

5:05 has footprints

I think it would be better if SpaceX get a contract of GigaSpaceStation, oribiting Earth and and smaller Space Station orbiting Mars

All praise the Emperor of Mankind, beloved by all.

ทุกท่านสุดยอดมากค่ะ

Space X Is Outstanding!!!

Within 90 minutes? That must be a world record, if they get a launch license ready and find a rocket to launch the shuttle within that time frame?

what will he SpaceX hls version be?

What does increasing the fuel tank size in Starship V2 have anything to do with how much thrust the Raptor engines output? Your technical credibility took minor hit with that one.

star ship is getting more and more amazing, lets say, more tech,, bigger rockets.. soon new destinations, =) and further modern rockets..

Isn't more effective to launch a rocket off a very large aircraft? No damage to launch facilities from hot rocket exhaust.

❤😂🎉 wish SpaceX CEO and SpaceX Team great work and success. AMEN 😢

Can the space ship hold two of the bottom tanks in the spaceship. With out making it bigger too carry them.

Be great when the first version is actually cruising space first

Are we launching v2 for the next flight, or we still doing v1 for a bit? I don't remember.

When you talk about sand, moon dust is not akin to the beach or builders' sand which is thick and course. It is more like desert sand, very fine particles, i.e.. the Sahara as it gets in everywhere, including my camera when I visited the region, and it cost a lot to get it removed

"POINTIER..." 🤔🧐 Yep sounds like a legitimate engineering term. 😬

starship is a spaceship that would take you star to star, good video tho

Nice, now we can send up 2 Abrams Tanks at the same time. Those Martians arent gonna know what hit em, Shock and Awe Baby!!!!!

Cigar shaped mother ship actually ❤❤

This payload is giving me Battle royale's vibe😮

I don’t quite get what you could drop at a lower cost than getting the stuff there traditionally would be? Or conversely, what interesting opportunities this opens up for that is worth the price? Military / secret service agencies most likely

it look like "real life tony stark" really want something

Didn't Musk say the version two for Starship was going to be twice the diameter?

V2 is taller but looks thinner.

I feel like Starship is slowly morphing into a spaceplane.

I think it's a bit too soon to be designing any new versions, since the original can't even achieve a stable orbit. Elon's plan to get to Mars is the same plan I came up with when I was 13. And as likely to come to fruition.

Just watched the House committee for NASAs budget. Sigh, doesn't look good.

Space the Final frontier and SpaceX is getting closer to a real star ship like Star Trek 👈 The blueprints are there for the build keep looking up

How about a version 3B upgrade to empower post orbital space travel? Remount the combined power unit and fuel tanks from the common dome through to the rocket nozzles. Then the entire power unit is mounted so that it can be extended until the existing common dome is locked in to its new position 10 metres from the base of the external body skin.This would only be completed after the achievement of orbit. This would create a sizable area for long trip duration use. By incorporating 2 Sierra space 12 metre inflatable habitats inside the newly created area (after extension) each with access airlocks there would be considerable new space for storage, recreation, work areas or even a greenhouse to grow food and thus increase oxygen. The trip to the moon or mars would become much more comfortable and actually productive. As in space there is no resistance there would be no requirements for retracting the power unit until entering orbit at the destination. Thus the inflatable areas would probably have a 3 longitudinally spaced floor levels of 1 x 3m plus 2 x 2.6m. The 3 m floor area would be an added safe zone for radiation or space debris impact. This structure would be the cheapest orbiting hotel or other use for mars. Obviously it could carry enough supplies to cover extended trip consumables including the air used to inflate the habitat units.. i am sure Sierra Space could sort the mostly existing habitat units if Space X could re engineer the power unit requirements. This would coincide with the already proposed in orbit refuelling methods. Just a thought from downunder in Sydney. A Space X admirer from the beginning but no engineering degree. I hope the idea supports some innovations.

Version 10 will be able to launch Earth into space.

Is it physical possible to harvest meteorites

Until we can actually travel at the speed of light (which is impossible ) or anywhere near it, interstellar travel is just pointless !

A while ago I suggested an inner and outer shell . for a maned flightship. An inner shell for the human part of the ship to consist of carbon fiber and the outer shell having a hollow shell , filled with an i nert gas ie argon to protect the humans from radiation ! Of course this ship needs to be built in low obit, wirth 5 nulcear engines . 4 for thrust. 2 for internal power and for a debris shield ! A shuttle needs to be brought along for a return voyage and entry module . Habitats need to bulit and sent to Mars before launch of the human depature. I suggest somewhere in Vallis Mariara as it has a higher pressue in the lower basin of the Vally and oxygen may be in greater abundance as well as caves suitable for human protection . A door could be built to trap the oxygen and radiation. Water may be more accsessable in this region also. Mike.

💥

since they swapped to steel, I wonder why they still restrict themselves to 9m diameter. why not 12m or even 15 or 18m? just saying, with steel, they aren't really restricted, unlike with carbon fibers.

Imagine being on top of this rocket. Very scary

My question is, why taller rather than wider?

Could they terraform mars and make the Mars day equal to Earth Day cause I think they’re only 36 minutes apart

Emergency!!! THE ONLY SOTUTION! Baffles will not work to prevent the fuel slushing problem, because the tanks of the starship system are too large. That is the only reason why the starship engines have been exploding every time. The solution: The tanks of Starship and Superheavy need 2 disk valves, expanding the diameter of each tank. One of the disks, the one on top, rotates above the contiguous disk to close the overlaping holes on the surface of the disks; to reduce the Size of the tank by dividing it, before any rotation or acceleration of the rocket. This will prevent slushings and protect the plumbing, if located 10% above the bottom section of each tank. Large telescopic pistons can be attached below the bottom of disk valves to control the fuel pressure as the piston expands into the fuel tank. I have built a model that works perfectly. The second disk valve can be located 10% below the front of the tank, to also protect the front of the tanks from the slushing forces. The gridfins are too flat and too small to be effective enough and will not be able to control the booster. Why is Elon not using four pins instead of three to secure each heat shield tyle? Four anchor points provide far more stability to secure a tyle, not three.What is more important than securing the heat shield? Four anchor points would eliminate the problems of tyles falling off the ship every time there is an engine ignition. Please get this message to Elon. Thank you. Also, Spacex needs 3 actuators to move the payload bay doors correctly, not two. They have only two now, one at each end of the payload bay. They need one at the center position. Three will guarantee that there will always be enough support to open and close the doors, even if one of the three fails. I know the spacex engineers can see these problems. It is like ignoring the elephant in the room. Musk needs to hire people who can be trusted and who will not continue accepting bribes from Jeff Bozo to sabotage Spacex.

no weapons

🚀🚀🚀🚀

8:04 Why does footage from 2002 look like it’s from 1902?!

Omg $2M per launch 200 tonnes= $5 per pound…!!! God Bless

They haven't gotten V2 to work yet. LOL

we really getting fortnite supply drops irl 😂

5:38 Seems sadly similar to asbestosis and mesothelioma

I'm not surprised the idiots at NASA didn't know, but *I* play kerbal. you can solve literally any problem with more bigger boosters. like... duh. 😂

Can you harvest meteorites

❤

soo we will not get that huge window on top ? disapointing

Cone of Silence for dust.

sierra space cargo dump is just a resuply pod from helldivers 2

I don’t get it. They have already planned an upgrade before they can even get the original to work right?

dev is cooking

Why the moon when we have so much more to explore about our own planet 6:23 ???

Best part is no part. 30 engines doesn’t seem like the simple solution.

BRO THEY ONLY JUST STARTED V2 AND THEY DONT EVEN HAVE A WORKING PROTOTYPE

❤❤❤❤

😢3-2-1 booom
