The Neutron rocket by Rocket Lab is now planned to carry up to 13 metric tonnes to Low Earth Orbit! Making it a direct competitor to the SpaceX Falcon 9! And at a lower price! The Terran Space Academy shows why Rocket Lab may take SpaceX' crown, as the most innovative rocket company on Earth.

SpaceX has chosen a unique landing system that seems crazy at first glance. They will try to maneuver a 25 story one hundred and eighty tonne booster, and a slightly smaller Starship, into perfect position to be caught by giant mechanical arms. Is this possible? And why might it be the best way to do things? The Terran Space Academy takes a hard look at the SpaceX catch tower, and the science behind the madness.

The Future of Starship...Everyone watching this channel is giving a lot of thought to the future.Someone who uses science and reason to imagine how the future might be is called a futurist.Which brings us to why Starship is so important for humanity.We had hoped that the Space Shuttle would bring down the cost of spaceflight.But it turned out to be too complicated…That wasn’t NASA’s fault.NASA doesn’t get to decide how much money it spends or where it goes.Politicians decide…The prime directive of NASA scientists is to explore space…The goal of the NASA engineers to build the devices that accomplish that prime directive…The prime directive of almost all politicians is to maintain and increase power and influence.The Saturn V had been an incredible achievement,Nothing being built today…Not the New Glenn, not the Energia, not the Long March 9, not even StarshipIs planned to be more powerful than the Saturn V…The Saturn V could get 118,000 kg to low Earth orbit…Von Braun had developed it but considered it only a first step to Mars and beyond…Before the Saturn V even flew Von Braun and his team were looking to develop the Nova rocket system.The Nova rocket would have been 183 meters long…The first stage would have had 8 to 12 F1 Engines instead of the 5 used on the Apollo rockets…The plan was to get 450 tonnes to low Earth orbit.But this was canceled along with Apollo.Timing can be everything.Consider the American rocket pioneer Robert H. GoddardHe was born in 1882 and was a brilliant and eccentric man…At the age of 22 he was studying at the Worcester Polytechnic University in MassachusettsWhen he designed a magnetic levitation train…His notebooks contain equations for planetary capture by aerobraking,Meteoroid protection and suspended animation.He argued that humanity could reach the Moon with his ideas But the New York times published a large article where their “expert”Ridiculed his rockets, arguing that they wouldn’t function in spaceBecause there was nothing to push against.He built flew the first liquid fueled rocket in 1926 using gasoline,He developed gyroscopic control, vanes for steering, engine gimbaling and powered fuel pumps.In Robert Goddard’s notes we find he felt that while liquid hydrogen was the most energetic fuel,Liquid methane was less difficult to work with and had the best heat value combinations But he did not have his own money…He would try to describe his rockets to the US government and wealthy supportersBut when he built one, they often blew up on the launch pad or in flight.Rich people and governments watching something they funded blow up does not usually go over well…Elon Musk is quite different.He is the only person in world history to have founded four-billion-dollar companies.PayP ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijPeOwD1Ccg
