Join NSF's John ''Das'' Galloway as he explains the SpaceX Starship Super Heavy Launch in terms everyone can understand... and makes a mess in his backyard with a pressure washer to study the physics that could hurl slabs of concrete hundreds of feet into the air. Uncovering the hidden facts and realities behind the massive dust cloud, we go on an exciting journey where science, engineering, and exploration intersect.
In this video, we make miniature replicas of the launch pad and simulate conditions that might've caused the strange occurrences during the Starship's liftoff. We discuss the absence of launch pad infrastructure like flame diverters and flame trenches and how their absence might have affected the launch. We raise questions about the unexpected engine failures and attempt to make sense of the chaotic aftermath.
Was it merely statistical anomalies or were there concrete causes? Was the dust cloud that engulfed the site actually dust, sand or pulverized concrete? You'll find it all in this video!
This video promises a thrilling exploration of the Starship launch and its challenges, paired with an exciting blend of citizen science and game fun.
