[4K] Watch SpaceX launch Starship, the biggest rocket ever, LIVE up close and personal!

7:32:35 - Water deluge system,
7:32:40 - T -5,
7:32:45 - Lift off,
7:33:50//7:33:56 - Max-Q,
7:35:21 - Meco//Hot staging,
7:35:59//7:36:16 - Booster explosion,
7:40:59 - Starship telemetry loss/explosion.

Thanks.

The deluge sytem made a huge difference, no engines lost at all. What an incredible launch!

Congratulations to all the sleepless workers at SpaceX who made this possible.

That far away and the deck is still shaking? That must be an absolutely awesome thing to witness.

That delay between lift-off and when the sound finally reaches you is impressive!

Great launch and covrage! Big congratulations to everyone at SpaceX and your production team. Something interesting I've noticed is that at 7:36:17 you can see the exact moment when B9 blew up by going frame by frame and the explosion clearly came from the common dome area suggesting that it was indeed the FTS. That's great because it means that the upgraded FTS actually works and that B9 was intentionally destroyed due to something like a range violation after an anomaly in the boostback burn and did not explode from damage after hotstaging.

Bro 2.2 million views already!? Tim is killing it and someday will fly on one of those behemoth pieces of human ingenuity! Go spacex!

This launch exceeded all my expectations! Congrats SpaceX starship teams for making history!
Thank you EDA and cosmic perspective for the coverage, y'all were amazing!

A massive amount of work and inspiration produced this launch and so congratulations Space X. Great coverage on this channel, intelligent and entertaining and some amazing coverage. Also, its great you dont talk over the actual launch, really appreciate that and shows you guys want to get us as close to the event as possible.

I cast this to my TV live and it was incredible. The effort to deliver 4K is worth it.

Every test they go further and make things better. Spacex is awesome

It's like reliving the Apollo Space Program era 🫡

#1 on trending! You guys deserve it! We love you guys! Thank you Tim Team!

To me, it looked like the hot stage put a lot of extra rotation into the booster. The RCS is fighting the yaw hard, and there are a few long "burns" trying to stabilize the trajectory.
My guess is that it was getting close enough to the range of boundary after separation that the FTS was tracking input and result, and it was far enough out of position that it was physically unable to provide sufficient thrust in the correct direction to push back into the range.
That long leak looking streamer is a thruster at absolute wide open, trying to push, but it wasn't moving fast enough so FTS came online

I'm going to take this opportunity to say that your footage of this launch was lightyears ahead of SpaceX's Twitter livestream coverage. It's almost embarrassing for SpaceX that they couldn't even compete with you, but at the same time a massive congratulations to you for pushing the boat out with your coverage. Thank you so much for this 🙏🏻

Wonderful coverage...I watched live at 2:30am here in Hawaii...Woke up my astrophysicist wonderful wife, I am just an engineer and have worked with NASA on JWST detectors...Born in New Orleans 62 years ago and I know the entire gulf coast from Texas to Florida, and have been in Hawaii for 36 years and was waiting to see Starship arrive miles from Kauai...When will the next test run happen is my question...smile...I watched the Apollo launch in 1969 live on TV with my grandpa when I was 10...1969 is our gate code...fun test when you tell a friend , "it's the year we landed on the moon"

Super thrilling to have watched this! Congratulations to everyone involved! I can't wait for the compiled video next week! Let's gooo! 🚀🥳

We enjoyed this whole broadcast. LOVED the emotions coming through too! They gave us a little taste of the experience and we apprecaite all of the hard work to pull of these shots!! 👏👏👏

Tim, you and your absolutely astounding crew are heroes! Although I missed your live coverage, just watching the recorded replay was soooo exciting! I will always watch your live feed (within my ability in Hawaii) for future launches. Thank y'all for not only all the hard work, but also all the excitement, enthusiasm & energy you bring to all of this. 👍

Thanks Tim and MaryLiz and crew for the awesome stream. Great reliving this moment online with some great people ❤
