Elon Musk: SpaceX collaborating with the US Military Force

In today's video, we'll discuss the most recent Space news. But I have a brief question for you: are you aware of NASA's revised timeframe for the Artemis moon missions, SpaceX's collaboration with the US Air Force on point-to-point space transportation, Sony's access to orbital photography for earthbound artists, and NASA's inspector general's warning? If you don't, then this video is for you. If you answered yes, keep an eye out for more information! Let's get started! The United States Air Force has given SpaceX a five-year contract worth 102 million dollars to showcase technology and capabilities for transporting military cargo and humanitarian goods around the world on a heavy rocket. This is the largest contract for rocket cargo ever given, and it isn't tied to any of SpaceX's launch vehicles. The air force research laboratory is leading the heavy rocket cargo program, which is looking into the usage of huge commercial rockets for worldwide logistics. They want to see if the SpaceX starship can be a better vehicle than a regular cargo plane for transporting both people and goods around the world; they want to know exactly what a rocket can do for cargo transport and what the true capacity, speed, and cost of the integrated system are. The concept is that a starship would launch into space from one spot on Earth and then return to land at another location. This is the only rocket on the market that can land with goods. Theoretically, we could go halfway around the world in under an hour. AFRL will be able to acquire vital data on environmental signatures and performance from SpaceX's commercial orbital launches and booster landings. A thorough demonstration of large cargo transport and landing is also included in the contract. As a result, the US Airforce may sponsor SpaceX's first point-to-point trip. It's worth noting that launching big goods from orbit has never been done before. As a result, we have no idea what will happen. The ship is actually meant to land on Mars and the Moon, both of which, when compared to earth, have substantially thinner atmospheres and lower gravity. Given that, landing on Earth will put a lot of strain on the ship's thermal protection system, landing propulsion, and landing legs. However, the worst-case possibility is an explosion, which has already occurred in a dozen starships. There are some new details about the Artemis Moon mission. These issues were considered at a meeting of the NASA Advisory Council's human exploration and operations committee on January 18th and 19th. We know the Artemis Program has had some setbacks due to delays and technical challenges, but NASA appears to be very confident in their revised timeframe right now. The first primitive voyage to the moon, Artemis 3, is set to begin in mid-2025, according to a "working manifest" released by officials. That's a one-year delay from the original objective, but it's not nearly as long as some had predicted. When the modified mission of the Artemis 4 was disclosed, things got much more fascinating. NASA has stated that it would not conduct a lunar landing, instead devoting its efforts to the construction of the lunar gateway station, which will act as a hub for future crewed moon trips and allow crew transfers between the Orion spacecraft and the human landing system. This also provides scientists with a permanent lunar research station.
