(00:00):
Hi, everybody. Welcome back to Stage 0 News.
I'm your host, Will Walden. And on today's episode, we're
going to be talking about Spacex's Starship Flight 9,
which will be happening Tuesday afternoon at 6:30 PM Central
time from the tip of Texas star base, Texas.
Now this is an unprecedented flight.
The last two flights of the shipended in disaster.
(00:21):
Both of them blew up Flight 7 and Flight 8 blew up mid flight.
Now Flight 9, apparently they fixed the issues that were
happening with those last two flights.
And we have some information from an engineer at SpaceX that
I'd like to share with you abouthow they got to this point of
flying for the ninth flight of Starship.
(00:44):
Now, one thing that I have to remind you of is that the only
place to officially watch the Starship flight is on the Space
XX account. So it's x.com/spacex.
That's the only official channelI've gotten.
I don't know, probably dozens, 50 or 60 DMS on X and on
(01:08):
YouTube, just comments about where can I watch the launch.
There you go, x.com/spacex. So these are some photos that
SpaceX posted on the Rex accountabout the ship and the booster
going to the launch site becausethey're ready to fly this thing.
They're on final preparations right now.
The FTS will be set up soon. That's the flight termination
(01:32):
system. Basically.
It can blow the thing up. If it's mid flight and something
happens, they'll blow it up on purpose.
But also the final crews are down there making sure that
everything fits properly, makingsure the ground crew is doing
their job, making sure that everything on the ground is
functioning. Because it doesn't just take
like 5 or 10 people, maybe not even 100 people.
(01:55):
It takes thousands of people in order to fly one of these
rockets because it's not only the systems engineers, the
software engineers, the people that are building the Rockets
themselves, but it's also the people at the office, the people
that manage the people. It's the people on the ground
that are moving tankers and moving metal back and forth.
(02:16):
It's a hard job. Everybody in the warehouses,
everybody in the production facilities, there's thousands of
people that come in and out of Starbase.
So it takes a lot of work to launch one rocket.
So if we get these done in a fewmonths and we get to watch
another launch in a few months, that is ridiculous.
But it takes thousands of peoplein order for that to happen.
(02:38):
So big shout out to everybody who's working at SpaceX to get
that done. Now, we reported that SpaceX was
having some internal issues and that Elon Musk wasn't at SpaceX
as much as he needed to be because he was off in Washington
doing his DOGE thing. And he tweeted that he'll be
back at Starbase before the nextlaunch.
(03:01):
So tomorrow morning, Tuesday morning, Elon will be at
Starbase. I think it's 1:00 in the
afternoon. He'll be at Starbase, and we'll
talk about that in a little bit too.
But he's going to lay out sort of the road map for SpaceX to
get to Mars because that's the next big mission.
Like all these flight tests, these are great, but the next
real thing is SpaceX flying Starships to Mars.
(03:25):
OK, so that's, that's a huge deal because eventually Elon
Musk wants to populate Mars, send the the light of
consciousness to another planet just in case something happens
to this one. We all know the rhetoric after
he's been been spewing it out for the last 10 years.
We know the we know the speech, we know what he's talking about.
This is the next big thing. So this flight night is very,
(03:48):
very important, OK? And that's the huge thing.
There's another thing that's in between that though, which is
Starlink on Starship and there are dummy Starlinks on the next
Starship flight. So does that mean they'll be
deployed? Maybe there are Starlink dummy
(04:09):
satellites inside of this Starship, inside the mechanism
that would the Pez dispenser, ifyou will, that would dispense
them into space. But I think what they're going
to do with this flight is they're going to test and make
sure that Starship can stay aligned and it doesn't blow up
mid flight. And if everything seems to be
(04:30):
going OK, maybe. I doubt it though.
I don't think they're going to let me know in the comments down
below what you think. I think they'll actually eject
these Starship or these Starlinks out of Starship
because it doesn't seem like that's a smart thing to do at
this point. They just have to make sure that
Starship survives this flight. That's what I'm thinking.
(04:52):
Can Starship survive this flight?
But SpaceX engineers have been working around the clock to make
sure that Starship is good to go, and it's better than
Starship Flight 7 in Flight 8. So we're going to move on to the
next, which is Shana Diaz, who'san engineer at SpaceX.
And we're going to talk about this tweet, she said after a
(05:14):
long few months in a heroic effort by the ship test team
yesterday doing a final verification test at Massey's.
That's where they test all the ships and the boosters.
Ship 35 and booster 14 are in final checkouts will be heading
to the pad this weekend. So they're already at the pad.
This is posted a few days ago, Shana said.
I've been pretty quiet here because there have has been a
(05:37):
lot of work needed to get ready for a flight test on Tuesday,
tomorrow the 27th at 6:30 PM Central time.
Big launch for Starship and as always, lots of things in test.
First flight proven booster. So this booster is flying again
with a stress test and water landing.
We reported on that weeks ago, months ago, like a month ago
(06:00):
that there was going to be a water landing and not a
chopstick catch. So they also have corrective
actions from the last flight of the Raptor front.
And then we still have that re entry gauntlet set for the ship
once it gets to that portion of the flight.
This one's going to be stressfulfor the whole time, but lots of
opportunities to learn. So there's a, there's a two ways
(06:26):
of thinking here. You do a test flight the old
fashioned way, right? Old space way, if you will, a
test flight is something that will prove the flight for the
next rocket and every rocket is perfect and built to perfection
and then the next flight that one goes well, you do the the
(06:48):
actual mission right. So for Starship, it's a little
bit different. It's iterative processing.
So you go back to first principles.
You build whatever you can with as least amount of parts as
possible. Basically make an MVPA minimum
viable product. Hopefully it launches and it
works, and this one did. So flight 1 worked great.
(07:09):
Then every flight after that, you learn something.
You don't expect it to do the complete flight you want it to.
You want it to do the best that it can do, but you might get
some sort of explosion along theway.
That's what's great about SpaceXis that, as Elon says,
excitement is guaranteed every time there's a flight.
(07:31):
Something might go wild, the ship might blow up, the booster
might go weird, something might fly somewhere that's not
supposed to, and something mighthappen.
So excitement is guaranteed for this flight, but it's the
iterative process where if Flight 7 and Flight 8 didn't
work, what was it that didn't work?
What's the data that they gathered in?
(07:53):
This last sentence from Shayna is exactly what SpaceX is all
about. They said this one's going to be
stressful the whole time, but lots of opportunities to learn.
They have the data from 7:00 and8:00.
So hopefully they learned from those two flights and also the
the flights before that too. But hopefully they learned
before those before Flight 9, what happened in seven and eight
(08:16):
fixed it up. And then Flight 9, they're going
to be OK and they'll be able to do the full mission.
Now, will they release those Starlinks into orbit?
Probably not. They're dummy Starlinks, so
there'd be really no reason to launch them into orbit.
I still want to know what your what your thoughts are in the
comments down below so we can have a conversation about this.
(08:37):
Now, this is a primary backup. This is from the FAA Starship
flight 9, Boca Chica, Texas. It's actually called Starbase
Texas now primary date 5/27/20, 3:30 through 0134.
So basically like the morning until whenever they're done on
(08:59):
the 27th and then the backup date is the 28th.
So I just want to show you the FAA approval.
Here's a no Tam and this is around Piarco, ACC, Trinidad and
Tobago. And this is like don't, this is
a no fly zone. Basically, don't go in here,
don't get in here with your boats, don't go in here with
your ships, don't go in here with anything that's in the air,
don't go anywhere near this stuff, but this is from the FAA,
(09:22):
so we know the flight path is going to be around here.
All right, let's move on to the next one.
So that's a very important thingis that when I look at the data,
Speaking of data, SpaceX data, Ilook it in the back end of
YouTube and I've seen 90% of youaren't subscribed.
Look at this, 90% of you are notsubscribed.
(09:42):
You come here, you watch a videoand you've watched numerous
videos. I see that too.
I can see all the data. You've watched 345 videos and
didn't subscribe to the channel.And I'm like, well, you like the
channel. I wonder why?
I don't know. But anyway, let me let me ask
you for a favor. It's going to take one second of
your time, one second of your life.
(10:03):
I'm going to give you 10 more years of my time O I've been
doing this channel for about 5 years now and I LAN on doing it
for 10 more. O If you could take a second one
second of your day, hit the subscribe button like this
video. If you have a few more seconds
write a comment down below and Iwould greatly appreciate it and
I will guarantee you I'll be here for the next 10 years to
(10:25):
talk about Starship and everything Elon Musk Now let's
get back to the content. There's some weather happening
right E5556 weather update for IFT 9.
So far the models have not agreed on the cloud conditions.
Some show cloudy conditions and below some show clear
conditions. GFS below the models all seem to
(10:46):
range around 12 to 15 mile an hour winds with to 20 mile an
hour gusts, which is not bad fora launch.
So Starship will be able to launch in these conditions and
it looks like it's clear, it's just a little bit cloudy and
Starship will be able to launch in these conditions.
That's usually usually what happens for Starship because
(11:09):
everything has been tested so well from the crew, the ground
crew, the ship crew, the boostercrew, everybody on site,
everything's been tested. So the only thing they really
have to worry about is weather. And you can't predict the
weather 100% and you can't control the weather.
So at this point it looks like the weather forecast is OK and
(11:30):
go for Starship Flight 9. This is going to be, it's going
to be an amazing flight. I hope it works out well.
And since they're not going to be catching the booster, of
course, it's going to be a less dramatic hopefully landing of
the booster. But you never know with SpaceX
and Starship. It could be even more than last
(11:53):
time. Who knows?
It could be more dramatic than last time.
Now we have another e-mail that was sent to me by SpaceX.
Join Elon on the morning of Starship night flight for
discussion with SpaceX employeeson Spacex's plans for
establishing a permanent human settlement in cities on Mars.
It's at 12:00 PM Central time onTuesday, May 27th.
(12:16):
So tune into that. And this is this is interesting.
Elon will discuss the development work ahead for
SpaceX Starship. And now SpaceX will use the
world's most powerful and capable rocket to build a human
presence on the Red Planet over the next decade.
Next opportunity to launch from Earth to Mars opens in late
2026. So a year from now, a year and a
(12:36):
few months from now, we're goingto possibly have a Starship
launching to Mars. Now what will they launch to
Mars? And they could have possible
multiple ships. We're just going to speculate
here. Let's speculate.
They're going to launch five ships to Mars.
(12:59):
They have to refuel all those ships in orbit of Earth.
So they have to have a bunch of tankers ready to fill up the
ships on the way to Mars. They have to have all of the
systems in place to communicate between the Starship and Earth
(13:23):
while it's on its way to Mars. Because we know SpaceX and
they're not just going to send it out there blind with no
information. They're going to give us
everything that we need so we can track the Starship on its
way to Mars. Because it's going to be a
journey that anywhere between 6:00 and 9:00 months to get to
Mars for this thing. Raptor 3, there was a, there was
(13:45):
a study that just came out the other day that said they could
cut the time down to three months.
I didn't get a chance to look atthe whole study, but if they can
get this down to three months, that would be ridiculous.
They could fly people to Mars inthree months.
That'd be incredible. And it's because of the Raptor 3
engines apparently didn't get all the way into it, but I read,
(14:06):
I basically read the brief on it.
So there's a possibility that they could, let's just say 5
ships, like I said before, one of the ships could be a demo
test that goes around Mars and orbits it.
One of the ships could be a Lander.
See if we can actually land on Mars.
Two of the ships could be Landers.
(14:26):
Three of the ships could be Landers.
See which one does the best. 4thship could be ship that goes to
Mars, comes back to Earth, does a whole round trip.
And a fifth ship could do something similar to that where
they could go all the way to Mars, could do a few orbits and
then fling themselves back to Earth and see how long it takes.
(14:46):
See if the ship can survive that.
I mean, they can. They better send as many ships
as they can because they need asmuch data in order to do the
next flights. Because 2026 they need to send
as many ships as possible. And I'm guessing Elon will say
that they're going to send some cargo to the surface of Mars.
They have to, they have to. Why wouldn't they?
(15:08):
Why wouldn't they sent the the the first steps for the human
civilization on Mars send something that either people can
build when we get there or I mean, this is another thing too.
This is far fetched, but it's possible the optimist robots
(15:30):
could possibly be the first astronauts that go to Mars.
It's not going to be people. The first things that go to
another planet are already robots.
We have Rovers on other planets,we have Rovers on Mars.
So why not have a bipedal robot that looks like a person to
gather data about how people will interact with the Mars
(15:53):
atmosphere and how they will walk on the surface of Mars?
What it's like, like there's going to be incredible amounts
of data. They'll be beamed from the
optimist robots to the ship backto Earth.
It's going to be incredible. So I believe there's going to be
optimist robots in every one of those ships.
(16:14):
But you never know. I mean, there it could just be
a, a hollow ship. The first one could just be, but
there's no reason why they shouldn't send a robot.
That's all I'm thinking. And if they can, they might as
well just so they can get as much data as possible.
They're basically crash test dummies at that point.
So let me know what you think about that too.
What do you think they're going to send the first time?
(16:34):
We have to get this out there. So share this with all your
friends. If you've watched this for this
long or listened to this for this long, share this with all
your friends because I want to get as much data as we can get.
I want to get as much data as wecan get to see what people think
before Elon does his talk. So leave a comment down below
what you think is going to happen when they launch these to
(16:56):
Mars. And now this is the launch road
to making the making life like multi planetary.
So this is where you'll view it.Spacex's X account.
So that's it for today. I hope you learned something
today and I hope you subscribe to the channel.
Like it, leave a comment down below, share it with your
(17:18):
friends. Very important.
Also, I want to say thank you toeverybody who has subscribed and
has been part of this channel for a long time for the
community. I couldn't do this without you.
I, like I said before, I've beenhere for five years and I plan
on doing it for another 10. So things are changing a little
bit around here. I know that, you know, there's
some changes and people are like, where's Will?
I'm still here. I'm doing everything actually.
(17:39):
Like this is still me. So I'm still running the
channel. I'm still 100% involved.
No one else has taken over. It's still me.
So this is all my channel still.So I want to say thank you to
everybody who's been here since day one and continues to provide
the community that is this channel.
So thank you. All right, take care of
(18:00):
yourselves and each other, and I'll see you in the next one.
Hi, everybody. Welcome back to Stage 0 News.
I'm your host, Will Walden. And on today's episode, we're
going to be talking about Spacex's Starship Flight 9,
which will be happening Tuesday afternoon at 6:30 PM Central
time from the tip of Texas star base, Texas.
Now this is an unprecedented flight.
The last two flights of the shipended in disaster.
(00:21):
Both of them blew up Flight 7 and Flight 8 blew up mid flight.
Now Flight 9, apparently they fixed the issues that were
happening with those last two flights.
And we have some information from an engineer at SpaceX that
I'd like to share with you abouthow they got to this point of
flying for the ninth flight of Starship.
(00:44):
Now, one thing that I have to remind you of is that the only
place to officially watch the Starship flight is on the Space
XX account. So it's x.com/spacex.
That's the only official channelI've gotten.
I don't know, probably dozens, 50 or 60 DMS on X and on
(01:08):
YouTube, just comments about where can I watch the launch.
There you go, x.com/spacex. So these are some photos that
SpaceX posted on the Rex accountabout the ship and the booster
going to the launch site becausethey're ready to fly this thing.
They're on final preparations right now.
The FTS will be set up soon. That's the flight termination
(01:32):
system. Basically.
It can blow the thing up. If it's mid flight and something
happens, they'll blow it up on purpose.
But also the final crews are down there making sure that
everything fits properly, makingsure the ground crew is doing
their job, making sure that everything on the ground is
functioning. Because it doesn't just take
like 5 or 10 people, maybe not even 100 people.
(01:55):
It takes thousands of people in order to fly one of these
rockets because it's not only the systems engineers, the
software engineers, the people that are building the Rockets
themselves, but it's also the people at the office, the people
that manage the people. It's the people on the ground
that are moving tankers and moving metal back and forth.
(02:16):
It's a hard job. Everybody in the warehouses,
everybody in the production facilities, there's thousands of
people that come in and out of Starbase.
So it takes a lot of work to launch one rocket.
So if we get these done in a fewmonths and we get to watch
another launch in a few months, that is ridiculous.
But it takes thousands of peoplein order for that to happen.
(02:38):
So big shout out to everybody who's working at SpaceX to get
that done. Now, we reported that SpaceX was
having some internal issues and that Elon Musk wasn't at SpaceX
as much as he needed to be because he was off in Washington
doing his DOGE thing. And he tweeted that he'll be
back at Starbase before the nextlaunch.
(03:01):
So tomorrow morning, Tuesday morning, Elon will be at
Starbase. I think it's 1:00 in the
afternoon. He'll be at Starbase, and we'll
talk about that in a little bit too.
But he's going to lay out sort of the road map for SpaceX to
get to Mars because that's the next big mission.
Like all these flight tests, these are great, but the next
real thing is SpaceX flying Starships to Mars.
(03:25):

to this one. We all know the rhetoric after
he's been been spewing it out for the last 10 years.
We know the we know the speech, we know what he's talking about.
This is the next big thing. So this flight night is very,
(03:48):
very important, OK? And that's the huge thing.
There's another thing that's in between that though, which is
Starlink on Starship and there are dummy Starlinks on the next
Starship flight. So does that mean they'll be
deployed? Maybe there are Starlink dummy
(04:09):
satellites inside of this Starship, inside the mechanism
that would the Pez dispenser, ifyou will, that would dispense
them into space. But I think what they're going
to do with this flight is they're going to test and make
sure that Starship can stay aligned and it doesn't blow up
mid flight. And if everything seems to be
(04:30):
going OK, maybe. I doubt it though.
I don't think they're going to let me know in the comments down

(04:52):
Can Starship survive this flight?
But SpaceX engineers have been working around the clock to make

This is posted a few days ago, Shana said.
I've been pretty quiet here because there have has been a
(05:37):
lot of work needed to get ready for a flight test on Tuesday,
tomorrow the 27th at 6:30 PM Central time.
Big launch for Starship and as always, lots of things in test.
First flight proven booster. So this booster is flying again

What's the data that they gathered in?
(07:53):
This last sentence from Shayna is exactly what SpaceX is all
about. They said this one's going to be

They have the data from 7:00 and8:00.
So hopefully they learned from those two flights and also the
the flights before that too. But hopefully they learned
before those before Flight 9, what happened in seven and eight
(08:16):
fixed it up. And then Flight 9, they're going
to be OK and they'll be able to do the full mission.
Now, will they release those Starlinks into orbit?
Probably not. They're dummy Starlinks, so
there'd be really no reason to launch them into orbit.
I still want to know what your what your thoughts are in the
comments down below so we can have a conversation about this.
(08:37):
Now, this is a primary backup. This is from the FAA Starship
flight 9, Boca Chica, Texas. It's actually called Starbase
Texas now primary date 5/27/20, 3:30 through 0134.
So basically like the morning until whenever they're done on
(08:59):
the 27th and then the backup date is the 28th.
So I just want to show you the FAA approval.
Here's a no Tam and this is around Piarco, ACC, Trinidad and
Tobago. And this is like don't, this is
a no fly zone. Basically, don't go in here,
don't get in here with your boats, don't go in here with
your ships, don't go in here with anything that's in the air,
don't go anywhere near this stuff, but this is from the FAA,
(09:22):
so we know the flight path is going to be around here.
All right, let's move on to the next one.
So that's a very important thingis that when I look at the data,
Speaking of data, SpaceX data, Ilook it in the back end of
YouTube and I've seen 90% of youaren't subscribed.
Look at this, 90% of you are notsubscribed.
(09:42):
You come here, you watch a videoand you've watched numerous
videos. I see that too.
I can see all the data. You've watched 345 videos and
didn't subscribe to the channel.And I'm like, well, you like the
channel. I wonder why?
I don't know. But anyway, let me let me ask
you for a favor. It's going to take one second of
your time, one second of your life.
(10:03):
I'm going to give you 10 more years of my time O I've been
doing this channel for about 5 years now and I LAN on doing it
for 10 more. O If you could take a second one
second of your day, hit the subscribe button like this
video. If you have a few more seconds
write a comment down below and Iwould greatly appreciate it and
I will guarantee you I'll be here for the next 10 years to
(10:25):
talk about Starship and everything Elon Musk Now let's
get back to the content. There's some weather happening
right E5556 weather update for IFT 9.
So far the models have not agreed on the cloud conditions.
Some show cloudy conditions and below some show clear
conditions. GFS below the models all seem to
(10:46):
range around 12 to 15 mile an hour winds with to 20 mile an
hour gusts, which is not bad fora launch.
So Starship will be able to launch in these conditions and
it looks like it's clear, it's just a little bit cloudy and
Starship will be able to launch in these conditions.
That's usually usually what happens for Starship because
(11:09):
everything has been tested so well from the crew, the ground
crew, the ship crew, the boostercrew, everybody on site,
everything's been tested. So the only thing they really
have to worry about is weather. And you can't predict the
weather 100% and you can't control the weather.
So at this point it looks like the weather forecast is OK and
(11:30):
go for Starship Flight 9. This is going to be, it's going
to be an amazing flight. I hope it works out well.
And since they're not going to be catching the booster, of
course, it's going to be a less dramatic hopefully landing of
the booster. But you never know with SpaceX
and Starship. It could be even more than last
(11:53):
time. Who knows?
It could be more dramatic than last time.
Now we have another e-mail that was sent to me by SpaceX.
Join Elon on the morning of Starship night flight for
discussion with SpaceX employeeson Spacex's plans for
establishing a permanent human settlement in cities on Mars.
It's at 12:00 PM Central time onTuesday, May 27th.
(12:16):
So tune into that. And this is this is interesting.
Elon will discuss the development work ahead for
SpaceX Starship. And now SpaceX will use the
world's most powerful and capable rocket to build a human
presence on the Red Planet over the next decade.
Next opportunity to launch from Earth to Mars opens in late
2026. So a year from now, a year and a
(12:36):
few months from now, we're goingto possibly have a Starship
launching to Mars. Now what will they launch to
Mars? And they could have possible
multiple ships. We're just going to speculate
here. Let's speculate.
They're going to launch five ships to Mars.
(12:59):
They have to refuel all those ships in orbit of Earth.
So they have to have a bunch of tankers ready to fill up the
ships on the way to Mars. They have to have all of the
systems in place to communicate between the Starship and Earth
(13:23):
while it's on its way to Mars. Because we know SpaceX and
they're not just going to send it out there blind with no
information. They're going to give us
everything that we need so we can track the Starship on its
way to Mars. Because it's going to be a
journey that anywhere between 6:00 and 9:00 months to get to
Mars for this thing. Raptor 3, there was a, there was
(13:45):
a study that just came out the other day that said they could
cut the time down to three months.
I didn't get a chance to look atthe whole study, but if they can
get this down to three months, that would be ridiculous.
They could fly people to Mars inthree months.
That'd be incredible. And it's because of the Raptor 3
engines apparently didn't get all the way into it, but I read,
(14:06):
I basically read the brief on it.
So there's a possibility that they could, let's just say 5
ships, like I said before, one of the ships could be a demo
test that goes around Mars and orbits it.
One of the ships could be a Lander.
See if we can actually land on Mars.
Two of the ships could be Landers.
(14:26):
Three of the ships could be Landers.
See which one does the best. 4thship could be ship that goes to
Mars, comes back to Earth, does a whole round trip.
And a fifth ship could do something similar to that where
they could go all the way to Mars, could do a few orbits and
then fling themselves back to Earth and see how long it takes.
(14:46):
See if the ship can survive that.
I mean, they can. They better send as many ships
as they can because they need asmuch data in order to do the
next flights. Because 2026 they need to send
as many ships as possible. And I'm guessing Elon will say
that they're going to send some cargo to the surface of Mars.
They have to, they have to. Why wouldn't they?
(15:08):
Why wouldn't they sent the the the first steps for the human
civilization on Mars send something that either people can
build when we get there or I mean, this is another thing too.
This is far fetched, but it's possible the optimist robots
(15:30):
could possibly be the first astronauts that go to Mars.
It's not going to be people. The first things that go to
another planet are already robots.
We have Rovers on other planets,we have Rovers on Mars.
So why not have a bipedal robot that looks like a person to
gather data about how people will interact with the Mars
(15:53):
atmosphere and how they will walk on the surface of Mars?
What it's like, like there's going to be incredible amounts
of data. They'll be beamed from the
optimist robots to the ship backto Earth.
It's going to be incredible. So I believe there's going to be
optimist robots in every one of those ships.
(16:14):
But you never know. I mean, there it could just be
a, a hollow ship. The first one could just be, but
there's no reason why they shouldn't send a robot.
That's all I'm thinking. And if they can, they might as
well just so they can get as much data as possible.
They're basically crash test dummies at that point.
So let me know what you think about that too.
What do you think they're going to send the first time?
(16:34):
We have to get this out there. So share this with all your
friends. If you've watched this for this
long or listened to this for this long, share this with all
your friends because I want to get as much data as we can get.
I want to get as much data as wecan get to see what people think
before Elon does his talk. So leave a comment down below
what you think is going to happen when they launch these to
(16:56):
Mars. And now this is the launch road
to making the making life like multi planetary.
So this is where you'll view it.Spacex's X account.
So that's it for today. I hope you learned something
today and I hope you subscribe to the channel.
Like it, leave a comment down below, share it with your
(17:18):
friends. Very important.

on doing it for another 10. So things are changing a little
bit around here. I know that, you know, there's
some changes and people are like, where's Will?
I'm still here. I'm doing everything actually.
(17:39):
Like this is still me. So I'm still running the
channel. I'm still 100% involved.
No one else has taken over. It's still me.
So this is all my channel still.So I want to say thank you to
