Unusual! SpaceX Conducted MINI-WDR For Starship Flight 4! 2nd OLT On Moved...
Extremely ready! Flight 4's fuel tank test was just conducted, setting the stage for the big test: the Wet Dress Rehearsal. Nearby, the second launch tower is nearing completion, with the incredible journey of the tower segments and the complete demolition of Pad B. Turning to the East, India has ambitious plans for the Moon. Let’s dive in and explore all of this on today’s episode of Great SpaceX!

More than two months have passed since Flight 3, and we are now very close to Flight 4. The most important preparation right now is definitely the Wet Dress Rehearsal. The hardware previously arrived at the launch site and has been stacked, ready for this test. To ensure everything goes smoothly, the SpaceX team decided to conduct another impressive test: the tanking test.

Tanking testing is a crucial part of the Wet Dress Rehearsal process. In the full test, fuel is loaded, and then the engine is fired up, simulating the entire process before takeoff in the official flight. The fuel tank test, however, only involves venting and fuel loading, without activating the engine. This is likely to test the reliability of the fuel tank before SpaceX conducts a full test.

  • 01:00 WDR never fires up. It loads all propellants and does everything up to ignition, but it never ignites. This is basic stuff.
  • Will the new OLT end up with extra sections, making it taller than current tower? It seems this will be necessary for pending increases in Starship length.
  • Yes of course the Indian gdp is much larger than Russia … QED
  • @peterclarke3020
    I did wonder if SpaceX would add an extra stack section to the next orbital launch tower.
  • The next propulsion system is Neutron, and it is named "Star Drive." It's continuously undergoing modifications and improvements that have made it the only Drive System that has been incorporated for galactic travel from one galaxy to the next for centuries.
  • When they do a "Mini-WDR" (no engines firing) do they use O2 & CH4 or N to fill the tanks. Same question when they do a "Spin Prime" test
  • @ed8377
    no, China will assist Russia as part of their cooperation deal
  • @FBurck
    When I think of India I think of unhygienic street food, not space exploration.

    An assessment of Elon Musk: Amateurishness is one of Elon’s dominant traits. He has never learned a profession and basically has always remained an outsider in all fields of endeavor. Like many self-taught people, Elon has no idea what real specialized knowledge really means. Without any sense of the complexities of any great task, he boldly assumes one function after another. Unburdened by standard ideas, his quick intelligence sometimes conceives unusual measures which a specialist would not have hit on at all. The victories of the early years of Elon’s business career can literally be attributed to his ignorance of the rules of the game and his layman's delight in decision making. Since opposing sides were trained to apply rules which Elon’s self-taught autocratic mind did not know and did not use, he achieved surprises. These audacities, coupled with financial superiority, were the basis of his early successes. But now that setbacks have occurred he has suffered shipwreck, like most untrained people. Now his ignorance of the rules of the game are revealed as another kind of incompetence; now his defects are no longer strengths. The greater the failures become, the more obstinately his incurable amateurishness comes to the fore. The tendency to wild decisions has long been Elon’s forte; now it is speeding his downfall. NOTE: This is a paraphrase of the assessment of Hitler that Albert Speer (a German architect who served as the Minister of Armaments and War Production in Nazi Germany during most of World War II) wrote in his memoirs, “Inside the Third Reich”. This was quoted in the video entitled “207 - Manstein Goes Great War Style - WW2 - August 13, 1943” on the YouTube channel with the title of “World War Two”.
