Why #Starship (other than #Falcon 9 #boosters) uses the #skydiver style until short before the #impact on the ground.
03:15 - How The Flip #Maneuver Works
06:00 - Why #Belly Flop / Terminal Velocity
13:15 - Thrust to Weight Ratios / #Engine Throttling
21:00 - Gravity Loss / #Gravity Drag
26:25 - Why Flip So #Late
33:45 - Can This Be #Safe?

@Time 📆 December 2, 2022 #SpaceX successfully test-fired 11 of the 33 engines on its #SuperHeavy #rocket that will produce more than 7.25 million kg of #thrust, nearly double 💪 that of the #SLS. The #SuperHeavy stands 69 m tall and serves as the first stage carrying the 50 m #Starship #spacecraft 🚀. The entire stack stands nearly 40 stories tall—again easily beating out the #SLS’s 32 stories. https://time.com/6238248/spacex-starship-nasa-sls-rocket-launch
