I've been really impressed by your channel over the years, I think your combination of the highest quality production value with the highest with high academic rigor and authority fills a key role in this area of space communication.

Regarding aluminium as an alternative to steel, without going into the heat resistance advantages of steel, it should be pointed out that aluminium generally has a similar strength/weight ratio as steel. To resist a given force, you need a smaller steel cross-section than you do aluminium, but both will weigh about the same. So weight is rarely a sufficient reason to choose aluminium over steel.

I do admire the philosophy of learning through mistakes and trial by error. I remember so many people sneering and laughing whenever one of the SpaceX vehicles blew up. I think it says a lot about them and their mindset that they view failure as something to be ridiculed, and not something to be learned from.

I was just hanging out in Brownsville, Tx and went out to Boca Chica for reasons unrelated to SpaceX. It's really neat and worth checking out if you're into this stuff. Not only is the surrounding area absolutely beautiful but the area around the facilities is remarkably chill. You can walk right up to the launch area and get a good look at the whole starship project.

Outstanding as ever, I wish you were my teacher when I was in school. You have this way of delivering the subject, with clarity. You should get into full on documentary making; I think we have a David Attenborough in the making. You just have this way of explaining things, with a calm and easy to understand voice. Keep up the excellent work, I always like what you produce; and are always looking forward to your next video.

There will be failures, some of them possibly spectacular. I think that is inevitable. But I truly hope that heart is not lost, that the course is held. This program is a part of a tipping point, I believe, in regards to our exploration and expansion into the solar system. In a hundred years people could be looking back at this period and say, “This is when it all changed.” I am so excited for this.

One of many things I love about this channel is how it holds your attention to the very end. I have two screens so I can watch one while looking for something else to watch. Half way through the video, I realized I have stop looking until this one is done. Amazing stuff every time.

Starship switched to using an inhouse formulated steel 304X, which is close to 304L but modified to have even better properties for Starship's intended use.
@craigrmeyer
Gigantic telescopes are great no doubt, but you're right, the idea of landing deep-drilling rigs on other planets/moons really does it for me too. Seriously valuable "clues" down there that can't be picked up any other way.
@MrFancyFingers
Your channel and Isaac Arthur’s are my favorite channels for dreaming about where I saw myself when I was a teen. In a rocket or in an O’Neil cylinder heading off to another world in another solar system. I know it won’t happen in my life, but I’m excited that it’s happening and maybe one of my grandchildren will be one of those intrepid explorers. Dr Becky is great too...
@alfredbadasu7644
The audio quality of this production is amazing.... different scenes, consistent audio... Great job.
@Cagrst
This channel is absolutely phenomenal, you guys should be so proud of what you produce. Every single time I watch your videos I get so happy and hopeful about the future
@JacobLandefjord
I need to thank you for all the videos on your channel. I follow the channel and find it really engaging and often recommend it to friends. This video on Starship explains the "raison d'être" far better than even the people behind the project do themselves.
@Dumnar
Always love the optimistic approach and perspective offered in your videos. Keep up the good work and keep us getting more excited for whats coming. Hope one day I can witness the launch of the cool world special purpose satellite with starship😁

Last year, MIT Technology Review published an article entitled “How SpaceX’s massive Starship rocket might unlock the solar system—and beyond”. This article included a concept for a Neptune orbiter and a Triton lander. The Neptune orbiter would include a telescope for studying KBOs.
@andyoates8392
This is the most grounded channel for dealing with subjects that are out of this world. Bringing us a cool, calm, concise clarification of the cosmos.

Fun fact: saying "JWST" takes the same number of syllables as "James Webb Space Telescope"
@jhschmidMD4
I thoroughly enjoy your videos! They are well thought out, properly edited, and always made using carefully chosen and compelling stock footage. Your narration is also first class, and very natural. They are informative and just a joy to watch. Thank you, for your time and effort in making these fine videos.
@TheOkieLife
Crazy seeing Cool Worlds Labs having nearly 550k subs! I remember them hitting 50k. Lol. The videos are always EXTREMELY informative! Especially about exomoons.
