There’s definitely something off for me under replies to Elon Musk. Any time I comment on anything he posts, everyone who comments to me disappears completely (even if I engaged back). This doesn’t happen to me with replies to others. Is it a spam filter gone bad? Would love if Support had any help.

This is my pet peeve… I’m at Space Center Houston watching a film & it’s talking about Trans Lunar Injection, but shows Gemini re-entering… there’s no need to show incorrect representations of things when there’s other options to tell a story visually. Especially bad at a museum!

Last night I did one of the coolest things ever! My friend Liam Lawson and I flew with SpaceX Mission Director Jay Aranha 🌎🚀✨ out to watch the Falcon 9 / Starlink launch!!! The videos don’t do it justice, seeing it from the sky was one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen!

Today’s office view ✈️ been extremely productive lately on the Apollo video. Still can’t promise any reliable timeframe for release, but this week I’ll get the first hour review out for supporters so we make sure we catch any issues early! Thanks for the ongoing encouragement! 🙏

If you showed me this video 5 years ago, you couldn't convince me it was real, let alone a shot our team could capture. So proud of the Everyday Astronaut / Cosmic Perspective team for continuing to up our game every launch to capture these historic moments SpaceX Elon Musk

PART 2 interview and tour with Elon Musk is HERE! Get up close and personal to a full stack of Starship / SuperHeavy on the Orbital Launch Mount at SpaceX's Starbase launch site. Then we hear how Starship Flight 4 went when we followed up with Elon after the launch!

The night before #Starship's 4th flight, Elon Musk described one of the main concerns about Starship's heat shield. He turned out to be right as it was the exact spot that burned through. More video to come!

SpaceX is about to launch their first V3 Starship and it’s by far the biggest and most radical change to the program to date. Here's a super quick overview of what all is new and different including the incredible new Raptor 3 engines, the new launch pad, and everything else that’s debuting on Flight 12. 00:00 - Intro 01:07 - Pad 2 03:15 - Raptor 3 04:59 - SuperHeavy V3 07:56 - Starship V3 10:52 - Flight 12 Profile

Is Starship HLS really is a viable option for NASA and SpaceX to get humans back onto the surface of the moon for the Artemis Program? We'll go over why it's so tall, why it uses Methalox instead of hypergolic propellants, explain why it requires 15 or more launches for a single lunar landing and we'll even go over alternate options that could maybe simplify or speed up the process. 00:00:00 - INTRO 00:03:20 - OVERVIEW AND NEED-TO-KNOWS 00:16:30 - IS STARSHIP TOO BIG AND TALL? 00:35:40 - IS METHALOX THE WRONG PROPELLANT? 00:43:50 - WHY ORBITAL REFUELING? 01:20:30 - CHANGING TO LOW LUNAR ORBIT 01:35:40 - PROPELLANT SUPPLIES ON EARTH 01:38:25 - SUMMARY

SNEAK PEEK 👀 Here's an overview of Starship HLS's mission profile. We eventually go over all the numbers & do some calcs to see if there's ways to reduce the tankers. I'll have a full-ish 90 min rough draft review up tonight for X subscribers, Patrons & YouTube members!

This is not a render. This is not a simulation. This is SpaceX’s first integrated test flight of #Starship with the Super Heavy booster, the world’s largest and most powerful rocket to ever fly. This #slomo is from our 8k tracker shot by Cosmic Perspective.

There are honestly some decent and common questions about the Apollo program’s moon landings that I figured we should check out ourselves. Because there’s no denying things from the Apollo program look unusual and are quite literally foreign to us in all other contexts. Enjoy 10 months of research, work, dozens of animations, 9 hours of 6k dialogue that took up 3.1 terabytes of hard drive space and MOUNTAINS OF LOVE covering the most incredible journey in all of human history (so far), the Apollo Program. Send this to anyone who watched the Bart Siebrel video on Joe Rogan, and maybe Elon Musk, you should make Joe watch this so he has answers to his questions. 00:00:00 - INTRO 00:04:40 - APOLLO 17 LIFTOFF FOOTAGE 00:19:05 - WHY DON'T WE SEE STARS 00:25:40 - LUNAR SHADOWS 00:32:00 - CROSSHAIRS BEHIND OBJECTS 00:34:10 - WHY DID THE FLAG WAVE 00:38:00 - ASTRONAUTS ON WIRES 00:47:15 - FOOTPRINTS / PROP ROCKS 00:49:05 - MOON ROCK OR WOOD 00:51:35 - VAN ALLEN BELT RADIATION 01:12:55 - LOST APOLLO 11 TAPES 01:07:55 - DID NASA FAKE FOOTAGE 01:19:30 - LOST SATURN V PLANS 01:23:00 - THE LUNAR LANDER'S THIN SKIN 01:27:50 - LUNAR ROVER DUST 01:29:30 - OTHER PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE 01:37:20 - DID ANYONE ELSE TRACK THE MISSIONS 01:40:15 - THE SOVIETS' REACTION TO APOLLO 01:42:10 - ORBITAL MECHANICS OF APOLLO 01:51:15 - DELTA V OF APOLLO 02:04:30 - WHY HAVEN'T WE GONE BACK 02:14:30 - SUMMARY

Stupid globe... it ruined our shot 😭 In all seriousness, this is a pretty unusual situation here where a 21 story tall building is falling from the sky and is within the perfect distance to be over the horizon when at sea level, but not when 28 floors up! Pretty cool!

Elon Musk I just miss logging onto twitter for behind the scenes updates & details of the most exciting rocket program ever. It also used to feel like there was a constant feedback loop of improvements for Tesla. It feels like there’s less of that now. I miss when this was the drive 👇
