Supporter Clean Feed Starship Test Flight!

Thank you for your support!!! This is the first fully integrated full stack test flight of Starship and the mighty Super Heavy booster. At lift off, it will become the largest and most most powerful rocket to ever fly producing over twice as much thrust as the Saturn V that took humans to the moon. The goal of the test is to get as far along in the mission as possible with a handful of important goals such as; clearing the launch pad, reaching max Q, getting to stage separation, ignition of Starship, burn Starship's engines for 7 minutes and 20 seconds which would get Starship up to nearly orbital velocities and would place Starship on a suborbital trajectory that will cause it to reenter just north of Hawaii. This would allow the teams to test the reentry profile and heat shields for the first time from orbital velocities. Want more information?

I’m really surprised no one is talking about what the data was showing during flight. If you watch the SpaceX stream, you can see the orientation of Starship as it pitches over for orbital velocity. We then see the on-board camera show us that Starship is rolling. (Not a big deal on its own.) The roll eventually exceeds 180 degrees. At that point, the orientation in the data suddenly flips. Now I may be wrong about this, but what it looked like to me was that Starship got confused about its orientation and attempted to pitch up to correct the orientation back the other direction. This is when it introduces the tumble as it’s trying to pitch 180 degrees. It’s too much rotation and Starship begins to tumble as the ship fights its own forward momentum. (Thinking that it’s pointed in the wrong direction.) Did anyone else see the same thing?

I just need to know how can I get the permissions to participate in Discord Forums. I think I am losing too much action there! By the way, congratulations to Tim and team. You did a tremendous task yesterday.

It was already way off by then. You can see the flame trail is bending hard to get the ship back on course long before that.

You need to re-authorize your Discord account on Patreon' website. Click 'settings' (it's on the left on mobile, under 'messages') and then the tab 'more' and 'connected apps'. Even if Discord is listed, do the setup again, the authorization tokens do expire eventually. (I moderate a different artist's Discord, so lots of people mentioned their token was deauthorized last month).

Thank you for the enthusiasm you shared with us that guided me to Starship. Meanwhile, I hear mention of your "8K video", but I can't find it. Where is it?
