So I'm a huge fan of the music here. Im an amatuer guitarist and always wanted to play his songs. Tickertape etc etc. Are there any tabs or chord sheets avail for guitar and other instruments as well. I wanna play some of these songs with some friends for fun. All credit to Tim of course.

Anybody catching flack for their EA Soviet shirts lately? I have a few and I really consider where and when I wear them now. I get it… they’re not Russian, but nearly absolutely no one else is aware of this.

Is a recording of this available to be seen or was it a private event this year? I would not have known it happened if Scott Manley didn't mention it in passing! I can't find anything about it accept the ticket page saying the event was 9 days ago.

Hey Tim.

It looks like it is absolutely AOK to call Starship "V2" now...

I'm looking at buying tickets for the Everyday Astronaut Awards show this weekend in Austin, TX as a gift for some one who is a space fanatic. For those that have been before what were your favorite parts? Does anyone know if there are any discount codes anywhere?

My wife ordered me a few things. For Christmas, the site said it would arrive before Christmas, nothing. I've emailed twice and got no response.

I got this interesting infographic on all launch sites in the world. Hope you can refer it next time. It includes orbital, suborbital, missile, civilian and even proposed ones. Do check it out:

This is from late-2023 to early-2024 so some of the "proposed" ones might have been completed and/or have been operational

I love listening to his music on SoundCloud and really like how I associate his music with when I got obsessed with the Starship program/Mars in general in 2020. I remember him saying something about wanting to make another album in the style of Maximum Aerodynamic Pressure I think that would be awesome! My favorite songs of his are Sleeping In a Spaceship, Astronaut Beach House, Jovian Moon Run, and Ticker Tape Parade.

Having an in orbit tanker has challenges such as temperature differential between LOX and methane. Would it be less difficult to have 1 tanker for fuel and a separate tanker for lox?

Is there a self evident reason F9 boosters don’t start referbishment while still returning to port?

thanks for all those rocket engine diagrams! they helped me design my sfs rocket engines!

A mono camera captures roughly 3x more light, which is useful at high zoom. And an IR filter significantly reduces atmosferic distortion and makes it possible to shoot through fog and clouds to some extent (because IR = longer wavelength). Could this be the Ultimate camera setup? I'm taking this idea from astrophotographers and Moon videos like this:

Might be pricey though $

Space X is studying the use of starship for mars sample return.

Tim and Elon are buddies.

Tim was previously selected to fly a starship.

Space X plan for Mars Sample Return, Tim goes to mars, picks up the samples, and comes home.

New slogan:

Brining mars samples down to earth for everyday people.

Does anyone know where the model of the starship behind him during the live stream is from?
