He was involved with the Survival label (UK) and collaborated with Dave Rome, amongst others. He recorded many songs on his own, most of which never saw the light of day, but some of them can be heard on his first solo released, the 4 song EP entitled L’amant Electronique (selected tracks were recorded between 1980 and 1984 in his own “Feedback Studios” in Battersea, London). Martin Lloyd delivers vocals via the vocoder and carefully layers synth melodies which range from upbeat and danceable, to what could be the soundtrack to a 1981 post-apocalyptic science fiction film.

Martin Lloyd passed away in May 2013, due to liver failure. He was 62.

Thank you for another wonderful video!

And hooray for Starliner! I'm glad they made it. Hopefully they can finally get going as a an active space launch system now.

The Marsquake is really interesting. It seems there's still some heat inside the planet. It will take continued observation (and readings from other parts of Mars) to say for sure, but it seems unlikely this was a once-in-a-century event. And that suggests that Mars may be more arelogically active than we knew.

Looking at the picture of InSight's solar panels covered with dust, it's a shame that such a thing could end the mission. I wonder if it would be possible in future missions to build solar panels that can shake the dust off? Maybe they could twitch like a dog drying its fur.

Sagittarius A* is really something. It's incredible that the astronomers have managed to take a picture of an object so far away and shrouded with dust clouds. It wasn't that long ago that black holes were theoretical ideas, then they found indirect evidence of their existence, and now here's an image of pure spacetime distortion. Maybe there's another universe on the other side...

Marcus, fantastic channel and great show, as always. You and your staff, please keep up the amazing work. I used to do video work and I know how long it takes to put together a 20+ minute presentation like this.

I was always confused by the name Sagittarius A*. I thought it was a star...

Since it's a black hole, should we not call it, "Sagittarius A-Hole"?

I would be much less confused, but much more amused...

Thoughts, comments, questions, concerns?

Jorge Lausell

Yea!

thanks!

Question: the solar units getting dusted, since they unfold, why not retract them a bit & shake-flip them about a bit? I can understand that this may be beyond the abilities they could program in now OTA. In the original design though?

Same with that cute helli!

even if you can't get all the dust off, it must be able to get some off!

From a design perspective, maybe tear off protective covers? Even just one would double the use-time!

Hey there yet again Rob!

Eli Havalot

2y↑1

We can depend on Marcus to deliver the goods as far as information and reasonable opinions, for which I am very thankful. The animation of a booster launch from Boca Chica was exciting, as usual, but a bit coy in regards to the effects of the rocket blast from thirty-plus Raptor-2 rockets in those first few dozen seconds as all the rockets fire and as the booster lifts off the OLM without any blast diversion system to deflect it away from the GSE tank farm. Only one of the tall vertical tanks was planned to hold liquid methane, but that may have changed since they've installed several horizontal tanks for methane. If the rocket blast were to knock over the tall LOX tanks as well as a tall liquid methane tank the resultant fireball would be legendary, but with no methane in the tall tank the changes of such a catastrophic event are much reduced. They appear to be building the Florida launch mount in much the same way, but they may plan to install some kind of blast diversion system, perhaps a series of curved metal vanes such as are found in very large wind tunnels to divert the air as efficiently as possible, while introducing copious water sprays into the blast.

Rob Five

Right

Crunch d’Grace Hopper

@Eli Havalot I thought I saw, sometime back, that the originally vertical methane GSE had to be made horizontal, due to a TX regulation. True?

Starkover

2y↑1

@Crunch d’Grace Hopper It wasn't the orientation that was the problem, but the fact that the regs required fencing around the methane tanks, and there wasn't room for it in the layout. The quickest fix was acquire and install the horizontal tanks, which are properly segregated and fenced.

I always love your updates, Marcus. I think that the Starliner "hiccups" will delay the crewed Starliner launch, or it should, at least one of them is a hardware problem, and the other should be ironed out with another un-crewed launch approach to docking with the ISS. That delay at the 30 meter waystation was agonizing for me to watch, and I doubt Boeing is being upfront with the problems. The first was the over shot the initial orbit burn, and the announcer said, "...better too much than too little," referring back to the attempt in '19 when they couldn't achieve orbit. Perhaps, at the final waystation they were being overly cautious, but sounds like they were working out software glitches, there should be no software glitches after years of rewriting and inspecting all the code.

Steve Austin

2y↑7

Some of the delays were waiting for the orbit to get back around to the light levels that NASA wanted for the docking per the NASA stream. The mission does not have to be perfect, just successful. The after action report when Starliner is back on the ground, will likely determine whether or not Starliner will have to do an OFT-3 or move on to the CFT.

Remember, SpaceX's Crew Dragon completed the unmanned test and then the spacecraft blew up on the test stand due to faulty valves. SpaceX was able to isolate and fix the issue without needing to do another unmanned test. So Starliner may be able to do the same.

Cotton Jones

2y↑3

@Steve Austin If I remember right Space X was delayed, if we are thinking about the same explosions on the pad and pad, but I'd rather see all things worked out as we need Starliner to go smoothly, we don't need problems with crew aboard, that would be reckless IMO. I imagine Mission Control was being overly cautious, I never like glitches, they are warning signs. What was the quote form Apollo 13? "Looks like we just had our glitch for this mission."

Steve Austin

2y↑1

@Cotton Jones SpaceX was delayed while they fixed the valve problem that exploded that Crew Dragon, but they did not have a refly the unmanned test.

NASA will review everything after the flight is over. If any problems are easily fixable, NASA may just have Starliner move on to the CFT. If the problems are more complex and/or systematic, NASA may want an OFT-3. Time will tell.

What's interesting is Varitasium is also the same guy who explains why some objects can look so much clearer in greater distances vs something much closer. He used a House in a background and flowers in the foreground to explain it. Things that are smaller but closer will be less detailed vs a house in the distance that's much much MUCH bigger. This is also why SagA* looks more blurry than Black Hole M87. It's why Betelgeuse looks more defined than pluto before she got her close up.

I enjoyed the scale comparison of the black holes in Sagittarius A and M87 constellations. It's truly mind-boggling to consider the power of these cosmic phenomena operating as they do (and have been) since before we began measuring time in any competent way. It's humbling, in my opinion, that all the stuff we struggle over in making the journey to space and trying to live there for long periods of time is absolutely nothing in the presence of some of these cosmic titans that can erase planets if they get too close. As a species, we are simply standing up in the crib, as a toddler does, before learning to walk. Such a longer way to go before learning what it's really like in deep intergalactic space, if ever. Hopefully, we can transition to much better forms of propulsion that won't cost a trillion dollars to fabricate. Thanks for the updates once again and please continue to showcase the amazing support images by Tony Bela and others as they document the journey of SpaceX to the moon, Mars and more.

Good thing is KSC stage 0 is progressing nicely. If orbital flight 1 is a total failure (Starbase stage 0 destroyed etc), the longest we'd have to wait for the following test in Florida would be about 6 months or so.

I still have massive concerns on those thrusters on the Starliner. To say that Boeing have solved this issue is justnot right - especially given that the 2 failed thrusters came from the same doghouse. Given that Starliner is meant to provide boostback for the ISS, any propulsion issues are cause for concern. Boeing and Aerojet Rocketdyne have a lot of work to do. I suspect integration may be the cause.

Also, if you watch the video of it approaching the ISS it seems the control thrusters are still firing wayyy too much.

Hey Marcus! Great video as always.
You said that all the engines installed on Booster 7 so far have been Raptor Boost engines, though I think that might have changed. Seeing as the engines are now numbered by just a number (eg 21) rather than the previous nomenclature of RB or RC (eg RB21) and that there is so much gimballing hardware preinstalled on the booster, I think the new Raptor 2s can be either boost or centre engines. This makes sense as it reduces complexity as well as making engine swapouts easier!
Thoughts?

I like Boeing but Dragon looks so much better than Starliner. Starliner seems to dispose of much more of its systems than Dragon and looks like it was designed in the 90s.

PoliticalAnimal87

That's because of how long Boeing wants to get paid for before they make a product, that works sometimes.

Steve Austin

2y↑2

@PoliticalAnimal87 Starliner is on the same kind of fixed price Commercial Crew contract as Crew Dragon. Boeing has been funding the Starliner fixes, to the tune of $410M in 2020 and $185M in 2021.

General Yellor

Because we all know how important looks are in aerospace engineering.

Nicolas Nelson

The Starliner actually has more interior volume than Dragon, and might someday make a better capsule for hoisting capsule-fuls (capfuls?) of space tourists to low orbit stations like Axiom.
But don't worry. The Dragon capsule wasn't meant to rule the roost for long. The Starship should replace it for most things... although the Dragon would make a great emergency-descent "lifeboat" for future space stations, and with SuperDraco motors fully fueled, might make a fun cislunar "runabout" like a little private space yacht to take you and a few of your friends from one orbit to another. Once you're considering that role, looks do indeed matter. ;-)

Hi Marcus, great content as usual. However as for Starliner considering how much this cost to get it into orbit eventually all I could think was how much money went up in smoke and all they get in return is the capsule!! Considering what has gone before with spacex nasa/ula cannot afford to keep this up. I could almost say now this form of launching capsules is becoming obsolete!! It is a shame Insight is over 2k km away from Perseverance as Ingenuity's rotor blades may be able to dust off Insights solar panels, just a thought 😀!!

Steve Austin

Per the NASA IG, Starliner is $90M per seat ($360M/flight) for the first 6 flights. SpaceX's latest Crew Dragon contract is for 3 flights at $900M or $75M per seat ($300M/flight). SpaceX's first contract for 6 flights was $55M per seat ($200M/flight) per the NASA IG. So the cost gap between Starliner and Crew Dragon has narrowed. Either way, NASA is evidently more than willing to spend $15M to $35M more to have a redundant crew spacecraft to the ISS.

Boeing runs Starliner. ULA runs the Atlas-V that Starliner currently launches on. Speculation is that Starliner will move to the ULA Vulcan Centaur when Boeing runs out of Atlas-V boosters that they purchased. Neither NASA, ULA, nor Boeing want to pay to crew rate the Vulcan Centaur. The Sierra Nevada Corp (SNC) Dream Chaser is also planned to launch on the Vulcan Centaur and SNC wants to eventually crew rate Dream Chaser. No word on if they will pay to crew rate the Vulcan Centaur either. As it gets closer to Vulcan Centaur needing a crew rating, something will likely be worked out.

Ingenuity has it's own dust problems. It is possible at some point the dust will build up faster than the blades can blow it off and Ingenuity will shut down for lack of power. Ingenuity is 414 days into a 30 day mission.

@Marcus House Always good to try new approaches like your foray as a standup comic last week. But frankly this week's style is absolutely your strong suite. With it, you are both enthusiastic and very matter of fact. That really gives your vids credibility. I support Angry Astronaut because his commentary is often edgily critical (which is important), but I hate the "angry" shtick. It takes away from the content in my opinion.

OFT-2 was not a home run for Boeing. I suspect an OFT-3 is coming first. Despite triple redundancy in the thrusters working as expected, this was normal for a craft trying to prove itself. And the cooling issues in the craft are an issue.

Great update Marcus. How many operational Falcon boosters does SpaceX have ?

Marcus, could we get a structural make of those Heat Tiles? There are a few things I'm questioning about their configuration on Starship.
Like the use of Aerogel, what is the compression limits of it? I know that the Heat Tiles are positioned so that they can Expand as they heat up, but I wanna be certain just of the layers of the tiles.

Steve Austin

I don't believe that SpaceX has ever released that info as they make the tiles in house with a proprietary formula.

The hiccups Starliner suffered are being softballed here. Every time Starliner had to do something more than float through space, something went wrong. The docking sequence was an absolute comedy of errors, keeping astronauts up past their bedtime with the unending delays and things failing, like the docking ring. How does this happen, after a hundred things got fixed after attempt 1, and then even more things—specifically including the thruster valves—having been fixed after attempt 2? Starliner attempt 3 was so broken, it was like somebody had sabotaged the craft! If NASA pushes to have Starliner 4 manned, I will have zero respect for them. Endangering astronauts just to fast-track Boeing's kludge of a craft.

those "hiccups" would halt any other craft from flying. Yet, it seems like serious hand-holding by big mega businesses pulling some strings to keep this leaky boat floating. In any other scenario, considering the lives aboard ISS, they should have aborted but that would have cratered Boeings stock, and all the other contractors involved. Big money backers could not allow that to happen putting the manned ISS in danger. Money talks and lives are secondary, maybe an unpopular opinion, but your insight is right on

The docking ring was on the ISS side as well as the graphics issues I believe. Starliner still finished the two orbit burns with the backup thrusters and per the NASA stream, those thrusters were not used in docking anyway. The mission does not have to be perfect, just successful. The after action report when Starliner is back on the ground, will likely determine whether or not Starliner will have to do an OFT-3 or move on to the CFT.

Remember, SpaceX's Crew Dragon completed the unmanned test and then the spacecraft blew up on the test stand due to faulty valves. SpaceX was able to isolate and fix the issue without needing to do another unmanned test. So Starliner may be able to do the same.

It’s a test flight… go look at test flights throughout history and find one that was perfect. I’ll wait.
