What Exactly Caused SpaceX's Falcon 9 Landing Failure

why are they falling? In order to rise and fly

rotation sucks

Hi Tim.
Where can we get a Falcon 9's model like that one?

They even make success from a failed recovery. NASA must be seething with envy.

2 years is not a long time..... 20 years is...

Just like Apollo 13, a successful failure!

Actually space X failed in foresight, the “what if”, they don’t spend much effort to scenarios. Aircraft worth 50k have redundancy, yet tens of millions are not backed up with redundancy. Space X seems to gamble when the industry standard has long before taken off the training wheels. The leadership foresight is seems to be elementary and reckless. There is a reason a space X has yet to deliver anything on time.

I think it's crazy that it's now actually surprising news that a rocket booster doesn't land itself

Great over view, success is learning from it!
Keep up the great work

grid fin fails....
booster rocket autonomous system: I got this yo, calm down!
booster rocket autonomous system: see man, i told ...wait .....wtf bruh you abandoned me, wtf is this....best bring me a life jacket...

Of course you can reuse a waterlogged rocket, so long as it is recovered quick enough so as to minimize oxidization due to sea salt.

Dafuq?......Is Kraglin "whistle-controlling" these things? 0.o

wait...

When humans are on board, and two systems give conflicting orders do you need a third?

Estes Rockets man

The grid fins seized up cuz they’re selfish and didn’t like Spacex reusing rockets when the fins can’t.

I thought it kinda suspicious when the feed was lost....

You should record the example using your Falcon9 model a little far from your camera.

those grid fins are QUITE expensive, yet, only one pump system for maneuvering??

If there was a field below the rocket rather than the ocean, i bet it would have landed and survived, If the legs didnt get too twisted.

Oops, Helium is not hydraulic fluid

Did this booster flew again?

What blows my mind, is I have the same kind of grid fin screw ups with my Spacex Falcon mod in KSP.

I think if it had another 3000 feet, it would have hit its mark.

In the early days of airplanes, any landing you could walk away from was a good one. This booster walked away from this landing.

almost 1 year ago and were on 7 times going on 8. so sick

Why do you need a failure to understand one pump without backing can lead to a crash?

Ok you cool

It didnt failed to land.




It just landed in a kerbal way.

2.5 years later theres another failed landing attempt

Back after 2 years, F9 failed to stick again.

sadly once agin this has happend

still looks kind of intact though

Coming back to some of your older content, it is wild how much you have refined your work. Scripting and delivery, as well as audio quality, are all much improved.
These remain solid videos though, even if Elon managed to make many of them age poorly.

They can tow it back,all they have to replace is the landing leg

It turns out Booster 1050 was never reused and scrapped for parts.

Those waters were rough and had a lot of white caps.

Redundancy, redundancy, redundancy, saves lives. And that's the point. Is space X working secretly on other types of propulsion?

GOD bless ELON MUSK we demand that elon be entered for NOBEL PEACE PRIZE FOR AI ELECTRIC VEHICLES BATTERIES SPACE INDUSTRY INNOVATION

Very odd looking back and seeing a nice clean Falcon 9. Like looking back at and early flight of each of the Shuttles when they were brand new vs the end when they looked all beat up.

Oh no , the fishes . Someone is eating crispy fishes

300 successful missions and counting

Came back here late to say rip to booster 1062 when it toppled over on the droneship on a Starlink mission
