News in space conquest

On November 19, the sixth flight of the starship happened, the mission was a success, but this time we did not see the mechazila tower catch the super heavy rocket, it was not a problem with the rocket, it was not a problem with the ship that landed on the Indian Ocean, as we are seeing in these images, was a problem with a failure in the Tower's antenna.


This failure meant that catching the rocket would have been very dangerous and therefore the SpaceX managers decided that it was best to avoid the risk and land in the sea, exploding evidently to prevent a failure to catch that rocket from causing an explosion and destroying the rocket. the facilities and could even cause some personal injury, although I assume that the issue of personal injury will be controlled and the staff will be protected for any situation.


But it is not a question of carrying out the mechazila tower, which also costs money, and this is the beginning of the beginning, we are at the beginning of the beginning, we are going to see flight tests of the ship to the moon because SpaceX has a contract to build a lander lunar that just a few days ago presented other images of that lander, it is still a version practically the same as the very tall Starship, with very small legs, I guess they will have to modify it.




They will have to make a flight to the moon to test the ship so that it works correctly on its lunar landing, it will be impressive, even if it does not have a human crew, seeing this ship land on the moon has to be impressive.


There is a space race to obtain powerful rockets that will carry cargo into space economically and SpaceX continues its progression, but the competition also needs to be strong; Because China is preparing its version of the “Starship” and it was presented during the 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition of the Chinese Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology, it is a rocket and ship system very similar to that of the StarShip.


The essential difference is that they use a net to catch the rocket, or another version from another company that uses a net uses cables to catch it.

And according to rumors, the FAA is going to paralyze takeoffs for at least 6 months. They will have to investigate the explosions, obviously they are not something trivial, but things must improve; There has also been a study on the noise level caused by the starship and a comparison with NASA's SLS and things go wrong, everything must be improved.


This is in constant progress and constant improvement, they will have to improve the issue of noise, they will have to improve the issue of landings and above all these problems that cause explosions, but remember that for example now the Falcon 9 is the most reliable that exists, it has very few flaws so I trust SpaceX.
