The second Starship test flight was amazing, but the first one was ground-breaking - literally.
More spacecraft, more launches, more better. Thanks Elysia, Alex, Ryan C., Kevin, and everyone that provided video.
I really love it when a KZhead host actually knows what they are talking about. Appreciate you NASASpaceflight and Elysia Segal.
This is seriously one of the greatest youtube channels of all time. Just staggering production.
Great overview video 2024 is gonna be nuts for Spaceflight and space related stuff overall, I’m very excited
And there's even more to expect! SpaceX will be launching Polaris dawn, and attempt the first spacewalk with private astronauts (also debuting their first EVA suit). We're also going to see a lot of progress from Stoke about their Nova vehicle (which began first stage tank testing). Plus, Blue Origin and SpaceX will likely share more news about HLS. 2024 is shaping up to be an important year for spaceflight, but really, the last decade has arguably been the start of a new era of space exploration. Between the push for reusable and/or low cost launch, a swell of new scientific missions both from established agencies, and around the world, and a renewed push to return to the Moon (and eventually Mars), each year seems to be aiming higher and higher.
So looking forward to Polaris dawn, TY for reminding.
Least we forget in February SpaceX will launch a Falcon 9 rocket carrying the Nova-C lunar lander built and owned by Intuitive Machines.
Not only that but Rocket Lab might even send their first mission to Venus, along with India also trying a mission to Venus, by the end of this year.
I love SpaceX and all they have accomplished but it is really nice that your team gives us all the information on all of the other space innovations happening around the world.
Wow. The world is accelerating to a space focused world! Amazing!
hope I live long enough to see Musk get to Mars!
I just hope this budding world war doesn't result in an orbital denial action. That's scary if you think about it.
Very nice and comprehensive overview of last year's and upcoming next (this) year's happenings in (wolrd wide) space flight. Thanks very much 👍
Awesome update NSF Team! Chuck full of so much information, especially regarding other than SpaceX stuff, which pretty much drowns out everyone else. I love SpaceX, but it’s nice to see what else is happening. Great job folks!
FYI, In Greek mythology the Argo (/ˈɑːrɡoʊ/; in Greek: Ἀργώ) was a ship built with the help of the gods that Jason and the Argonauts sailed from Iolcos to Colchis to retrieve the Golden Fleece. The ship has gone on to be used as a motif in a variety of sources beyond the original legend from books, films and more. There are other entities that use Argo as a tribute to the Argonauts. I am going to guess that's where that name comes from.
The company also made the reference to it being in part a pun because it's a cARGO spacecraft heh
2024 looks exciting!😁 I am hyped! Thank you Elysia and NSF team for the comprehensive breakdown! Side note on the editing, when you slide Elysia around to display text it is a bit disconcerting.🙃 Great video as always!
Add a W to there initials
The Kiwis might be a bit cranky putting RocketLab in the US group :)
They did move their HQ to California
@@ch4dderbox they did, but it's still Kiwi :)
If Tesla launched and still operated its business in South Africa with tech developed in South Africa by a South African, I would. Thanks for pointing out the two most successful space entrepreneurs are foreign born.@@easyebs5841
Wow, great update. Looking forward to 2024 in space.
Good job presenting quality content. Thank you. 🚀🔥❤️🤙🚀🔥❤️
Man you guys crammed a LOT of information into this video! Good job and good job Elysia!
And we still could have put a lot more stuff or even talk more in detail about some of these missions but then the video would be 4-5 hours long 🤣
@@ale131296 Great job. Seems you had a lot more international news which was great. Fine episode! Thanks!
Thank well done, great informations, look forward to more presentations and update from you.
WOW What a year. It’s a grate time to be looking up. It was so good to see you bring up Australia.
Wow! This was a great comprehensive review over everything that’s going regarding space flight. Thanks!!
Nice to have a channel to go to for unbiased real information about launch programs and their progress. We are at a new phase of exploration with non-government entities getting involved and will see quicker progress and advancements with more minds working on it.
"unbiased ". space x is the direct result of public funding diverted to private sector bc oligarchy; it is only in it for itself, at purposeful expense of everything else, incl representative govt - forcing problems (often created by oligarchs) to be 'solved' their way. this needs to stop, and david's need to stop simping goliath, including space x. "NASA"spaceflight channel should be ashamed... say goodbye to progress, exploration, and advancements not chasing: $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I hope SpaceX surprises the world and plops a Starship on the Moon. In true form, the first one will be a spectacular crash. Still super-cool.
WOOOOO! WHO IS EXCITED?!!
ME
Meeee
Love the passion! I AM
EVERYONE!!!
everyone
Looking forward to all this cool stuff continuing into 2024 and beyond! Humans returning to the moon would have been a cool thing to see this year, but oh well, 2025! Just can't get too much of this! Thanks for update @ElysiaSegal and @NSF team, you guys rock!
Great channel and info, and I am very excited that Europe finally seems to join the game. I would love to see more about the continental European spaceports, and especially Andøya, which seems somewhat downplayed in both this channel and other space related youtube channels. As far as I can see they are closest of the spaceports to have an orbital launch. In this video, and most others, they are just briefly mentioned.
Go Orbex! I live relatively nearby in NE Scotland. I will definitely be going to watch that maiden launch in person/try get some footage and will be my first experience of an orbital rocket launch attempt.
Omg Jack's IFT2 footage of launch/ascent is absolutely unreal. Priceless!!!
Rest In Peace Ingenuity. You will be missed.
I gotta say... I totally jinxed it saying in this script that it may fly up to its 100th time in 2024. I accept all blame 😩😩
You’re a good presenter. Nice job by all. Great content.
You know what else will happen in 2024? @NASAspaceflight will hit 1 million space fan subscribers!!!! I vote for a behind the scenes and history of the channel video!
Safe to say it’s going to be a great year for us space nerds!!🚀
space race 2: electric boogaloo
4:45 lets just say, the last time we had that much activity, Nasa and Roscosmos poached all our engineers and went to the moon.
And this time it isn't powered by a political **** measuring contest. Needless to say I'm very excited about the future!
Amazing video! thanks NSF :)
Hope we won't see any Anti-satellite tests this year
Great Video and perfect presented by Elysia👍🏼 As always with new earrings.
Second stage feels like the forgotten stage. It’s so key but doesn’t get much press.
2024 🎉 excited for Starship IFT-3 and more
You are #1 !!! Excellent presence.
I could listen to her speak All day.. great video your out here doing the Lord's work
Keep up the good work Nasaspaceflight
India had so many good years. I mean rover on moon was great achievement but so we're earlier missions like maiden Mars mission or 104 satellites in one go. In fact India has been sending rockets to space for very long time so you can count there were many great years.
First-time seeing this is this a global space news show. I certainly hope so
Check out This Week In Spaceflight which we release every Friday. -Das
Wow, amazing amount of research done to make this video. Great job…
Awesome video.........
We really are in the golden age of space exploration
the second golden age
What a great production! Thanks
Another professional job by Elysia. She is excellent is these videos.
awesome to hear you mention the aussie rocket
What a monster of an update. 2024 gonna be busy...
#TeamSpace
Crazy to think there are so many rocket companies, more than commercial jet companies.
Thanks Elysia. It's always great to see your lovely smile. Alex must have burnt the midnight oil to write all of this.
Great reporting. Thanks for the look ahead.
Did the video mention Intuitive Machines planned lunar landing as soon as February? I don't think it was mentioned, but it is definitely worthy of inclusion.
OUTSTANDING space "Recap" from a lovely presenter!!
You missed the rocketlabs launch facility in New Zealand, on the Mahia peninsula.
OH, "H" yeah. Keep rocking and bringing it all.
Great summary folks and excellent delivery Elysia!
The most advanced thing humanity has achieved is watching sunset of a different planet ! And also the panaromic view of martian surface
this is crazy. every year so many new rockets and launches. this the new space race!
Come on Blue Origin ❤
where do these second stages go? in to the ocean?
Great video!
It seems like 'success' is being used in a digital sense, on/off, rather a more analog term like 'progress', which has occurred even with trajectories labeled as 'failure'.
"Better" is a very subjective term. Measurable improvements are evident, more payload mass to orbit, farther journeys into space, occurring more frequently, but whether life itself is actually better probably varies widely from person to person.
Godspeed, NASA & more success!
31:06 Wow, amazing what can happen in a month!
Word to the wise watch your platform many times but I always heard you guys over talk this young lady first time really hearing somebody on your platform really explain and talk about what's going on in the space race swallow your eagle and to the young lady you do a fantastic job when you explain what's going on step back male show me pigs there's a great new leader in Brazilian what's going on Miss great job half the time I'm not even watching the TV I'm listening and how they said she got the right stuff what's going on in this great space race😊
awesome show
Great recap
Cool
I have literally been waiting for this video since November ❤😂🎉
So surely to keep up with the planned cadence, spaceX is going to need a second (if not third) test stand at McGregor or somewhere close by to keep up?!?!!
excited for ift3!
Woooooo, I am excited this year will be another ground breaker.
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, observations and videos. Wondering if I was the only one quietly hopeful that we might see ULA Vulcan rockets switching to raptors rather than BE4’s. Not even sure if it could be possible but any move to see the Raptors making money and proving themselves couldn’t be to bad.
Did you catch the typo in the headline "China Space Angency??
❤❤❤❤❤
how good was that. very nice
21:57 I guess version 3 is a stretch goal? 😉
Hope India can keep up its development in the space sector. Chinas progress is a little worrying.
Bro what are you talking about? They don't even have toilets forget about competing with China
Wooooooooooo what a time to be alive!!
Rocket lab baby!!!🎉
WOW that mandarin is impressive!!!
Woooo!
I love Space x flight. 🎉
we need to get to Mars!
Gosh, this is worth the monthly membership alone.
All Chicom companies are state-controlled, whether they're called "state-owned" or not. Every company with at least 50 employees is required to employ a political officer.
Promise me believe what you believe and never accept the facts. Please.
@@directxxxx71 The facts are there to see - no such thing as a private company under the CCP. GO away bot.
No human will ever step aboard Starship with the way it lands. EVER
why not? just because we have never done it doesn't mean its not possible. it will definitely take time (probably many years), but they just need to prove starship's reliability (which is pretty likely, since SpaceX is known for working hard and fast).
@hamzahkhan8952 great for cargo and an empty returning ship. You will need 1000 successful landing with 100% no fail on any component before that gets signed off. I believe the ship that is used for humans and is 100% reusable hasn't been drawn up yet
@@jackphillips3755were did you get those numbers? obviously that would not be the case. no vehicle in history required 1000 test with a 100% success rate to be approved for safety. airplanes are reusable and I doubt that they requried that many test flights before being approved. my guess is that there will be dozens or hundreds of flight (successful) before astronauts fly on it. maybe thousands of more flights, and then we could possible see mass transportation of people on starship.
👏👍😊
Does the second stage completely burn up in reentry?
Which second stage? There were many cited. The only second stage not supposed to burn on reentry are Starship and Stoke Spaces liquid cooled shield.
@@BokoMoko65 sorry I shouldve been specific...I was referring to all the falcon 2nd stages. I'm just wondering if bits n pieces are probably scattered out there lol
@@itsjustmando They're supposed to burn up during reentry. But is plausible to consider that after almost 100 launches, some debris may have survived reentry.
@@BokoMoko65 there was an instance where a broken up 2nd stage of a falcon landed in brasil 😅
im pretty sure F9 seconds stages do a controlled reentry after finishing its primary missions.
Here come the Chinese!!! YEAH! Our hardest working grad students at IU in my 30+ years there.
6:46 is this a 3D render from starship with chinese stuff on it? xD
Nah it’s mildly different. Everyone’s just copying spacex cuz, like, why mess with the best?
Argo. As in Jason and the Argonauts.
Holy crap, that's a lot!
Are Falcon 9 second stage always deorbited in order for them to burn up in the atmosphere or do they sometime stay up there, in let's say a graveyard orbit or somewhere else?
RocketLab's Neutron rocket might make it to the pad in 2024. This is huge.
Good ...the list of launches is getting really long...I guess you miss a very inportant launch in 2023 is the JUICE mission to Jupiter in the last Ariane 5 by ESA
Hi Robert , I live in Canada 🇨🇦 & watch your channel religiously it is my understanding that the cars we get are from China. Am I to understand that when the new Model Juniper gets released we might get it earlier than 2025? I am waiting for the new Juniper refresh though. What have you heard? Also what do you know about Tesla purchasing Ford that I heard about on Feb 13/2024. True or False. Thank you
