SpaceX’s Starship Launch Tower Mystery Finally Revealed, and Odysseus Moon lander is tipped over!
After weeks of speculation, the mystery surrounding SpaceX’s Starship Launch Tower has finally been revealed. The towering structure, which has been under construction for months, is set to be used for the upcoming launches of SpaceX’s Starship rocket.
Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, took to Twitter to share a sneak peek of the launch tower, confirming that it will indeed be used for the upcoming Starship launches. The sleek, futuristic design of the tower has sparked excitement among space enthusiasts, who are eagerly awaiting the first launch from the new facility.
Meanwhile, in a separate development, the Odysseus Moon lander has been tipped over on its side during testing at a SpaceX facility. The incident has raised concerns about the safety of the spacecraft, which is set to carry astronauts to the moon in the near future.
SpaceX has assured the public that the incident was a minor setback and that the Odysseus Moon lander will be back on track for its planned mission. The company has not released any further details about the incident, but experts are confident that SpaceX will rectify the issue and ensure a successful moon landing.
As the space race heats up and companies like SpaceX continue to push the boundaries of space exploration, incidents like these serve as a reminder of the risks and challenges that come with exploring the final frontier.
Hey hey hey Marcus, would it be best to locate Tower II close to Existing Tank
farm ???
I watched the Intuitive Machines landing live. 😀
"Size of a Tardis" Both inside and outside?
you can tell its now for real, landing fridge on its side, marvelous!
i just leave my comment here for the person that will read this after 50years.
Love your work Man 🚀
Silence!!!!!! Give me rocket porn
It's crazy that we were able to land 6 times on the moon with Apollo crews 50 years ago but we keep failing to land even an unmanned probe without it tipping over due to landing radar failure and inability to control lateral movement like this one and the Japanese one or having a propellant leak like Perregrine! How can NASA envisage crewed landings when they apparently haven't even OBLIGED these companies to have MULTIPLE redundant systems like Apollo had? It's a recipe for disaster!
It's a big mirage, a delusional show of nothing realistic.
The first design requirement should be that the lunar lander can right itself up no matter how it ends up during a landing. It is a shame that Japan and the United States do not understand this. My 6-year-old grandchild's toys can do this.
Great job.
Your waterheater fell over. Nice STABLE design 😅 how's aboot wider at bottom than top with a BELOW middle center of gravity?
Is there a problem if they install heat shield tiles that are used in the starship , on the Launchpad also ?
Good update.
One of the corrective actions assessed after flight two RUD, is to change the LOX filtration in the booster tank.
ust watched the SpaceX's Starship Launch Tower Mystery Revealed and the Odysseus Moon lander mishap! 🚀😱 Talk about twists and turns in space exploration! Can't wait to see how they overcome these challenges! 🌌🛰 🌠
📝 Summary of Key Points:
📌 The video covers updates from the SpaceX Starship development site in Boca Chica, Texas, including the movement of Ship 28 and Booster 10, as well as the installation of new equipment at the tank farm.
🧐 Intuitive Machines' IM-1 Lunar Lander successfully landed on the moon after a precise lunar orbit insertion burn, despite a minor issue causing it to flip over on its side. The mission aimed to study lunar surface phenomena.
🚀 Falcon 9 had successful launches, including the 300th mission with Merah Putih 2 and a Starlink mission. Rocket Lab launched a mission with a satellite to test space debris removal technology.
💡 Additional Insights and Observations:
💬 Elon Musk mentioned targeting the second week of March for Flight 3 of Starship, with SpaceX aiming for at least nine Starship launches this year.
📊 The video highlighted the significance of the ADRAS-J satellite in testing technology for space debris removal, a critical issue for future space missions.
📣 Concluding Remarks:
The video provided detailed updates on SpaceX's Starship development, successful lunar landing by Intuitive Machines, and notable launches by Falcon 9 and Rocket Lab. The focus on space debris removal technology showcases the industry's commitment to addressing challenges in space exploration.

Why would anyone be surprised a tall skinny thing fell over. Granted gravity is less an issue but still. Isn't it basic physics how center of gravity works. WTH were they thinking? Apollo lunar modual has such a wide stance it's effectively a cube. I doubt that's by accident.

No taxpayer should be charged for any of this. This is big corporations making money and will all result in weapon systems in space, which will trigger a war.
If you can't see countries starting wars over NATO putting missile systems on their borders, then wait until every country has missiles directly overhead that are supersonic. I can't imagine a better reason for a first-strike nuclear deployment.
This entire space travel does nothing to move the current people of this planet forward at this time. There are many issues taxes could solve over taking over the moon or Mars.
We will all regret this cold war this will create. The CIA will use space to create hostile issues so that they can convince you they are the only ones that can keep you safe with more weapons.
