SpaceX is taking humans back to the moon and could one day take us to Mars. But before all that, its massive Starship rocket is gearing up for its first orbital flight. Claire Reilly breaks down how we got here and why this is such a big deal.

Yes, I am planning on watching the launch.
Ya still need “Earths Gravity” to Orbit, Earth.….
How do I get invited?
Hate some of the stuff that is being said. Suborbital flight has nothing to do with microgravity. Gravity here on earth and at the carman line is basically the same. There is just no ground to stop your acceleration.
Also: orbital flight does NOT mean escaping Earth’s gravity well. All orbital objects are held in orbit by the Earth’s gravity. Seigh I don’t expect explanations that are 100% correct, but that is a total lack of love for the details here.

I always dream to contribute in this kind of work
The logical next baby step, methink, should be a suborbital flight. Requires less engines, more gentle on re-entry, test all systems weed out any bugs before going orbital.
Starship is going to be an absolutely epic step towards space travel, what a massive vehicle w/ reusability that is just another game changer spacex has brought to the table.
Lol FAA is nuts they don’t permits to launch
When it will happen ? After 100 year American FAA is nuts
Shut up ! It will just dreams
when is the date
Cool I like it
When I go to mars I don’t think I will ever come back to earth
Gonna watch
The FAA holding up interplanetary space travel for “public safety” ($$$). The majority of us would be happy to be hit with a bit of starship 😂
Fu FAA. Grubs.
3:37 “really it has to do with altitude and speed, and you need both of those to escape Earth’s gravity”- says the “space reporter” from CNET.
So tell me, if Starship will “escape Earth’s gravity” in this orbital flight, which planet will it be orbiting?
Why can’t it do a full orbit? Seems this really isn’t an orbital flight at all.
“meethane”?
One crashed yesturday,
I thought it was taking an orbital around the world. Dont the Russian have rockets that could go further. With this bombs big enough to destroy a big city.
almost 2 years later mission success
I hope that they can use the Starship to build a moon base, with 100+ tons of cargo space you could send up large prebuilt sections. I think they will start with the next space station first though.
