Thanks for watching this clip. Full podcast with Elon Musk and Lex Fridman is here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/et6CeNBk2JfXk3U.html

I love the way Elon says this “This won’t work the first time” while laughing. The acceptance of failure as part of the process of doing anything is the key to success when paired with perseverance

"Prototypes are easy, production is hard" better be on Elon's tombstone.

"Success is in the set of all possible outcomes" I could feel Elons pain of knowing all the other possible outcomes.

Me: has no idea what Elon is talking about Also me: nodding enthusiastically in agreement with everything Elon says.

Elon always sounds like a student trying to give a presentation and they didn’t prepare for it

"The physics pencils out. Success is in the set of possible outcomes." ... wow, engrave that in Roman stone. Guy issues some epic quotes.

7:48 "So you're saying there's a chance". The way Lex said it was exactly like Jim Carey on Dumb and Dumber

Wow! Great catch Lex. Now I want to see a Russian guest. You speaking Russian and we reading the subtitles. There must be 1.000.000 interesting Russian possible guests.

When will the ODSTs come out?

I went to Starbase, Texas 4 times in 2021. I'm leaving Plant City, Florida in 9 days for Starbase. It's amazing how close you can get to all the action!

A karate kid and dumb and dumber reference in the same clip??? Nice!!

Thanks, imma start making this in my garage now

Lex always coming through. But Wow as always, listening to Elon talk. I can’t imagine what it was like to listen to Tesla and Einstein or DaVinci etc.. in person. We have Elon, right now. With us. We are living with one of the writers of human history. Enjoy it people :)

Elon didn't get Lex's "Dumb and Dumber" reference: 7:49

great show congratulations on booking Elon

I love that you nabbed Elon again. Amazing.

If they successful build this and reach at scale manufacturing it will be one of the greatest achievements in the history of humanity.

Musk looks tired. Get some rest buddy. We gonna need you 20 years from now too

The whole purpose of neurolink seems to be to fast track human brain evolution and processing power to come up with an idea of a new propulsion technology which we would have discovered over centuries, in a relatively smaller time instead.

Could we like shoot up drones too catch the ship as it comes down, like small thrusters on drones that plug to the ship might be a little cheap could use it for every ship

What does Elon says about ufo videos from Pentagon?

In 1000 years we will be taught about musk and look at his primitive fully reusable rocket like we look at the first aeroplane technology

Curious if electromagnets could be used to recapture a rocket. I mean… if you can use it to levitate trains why not have a magnetic net to capture rockets? Maybe there’s an energy cost function that’s prohibitive.

When Elon talks, I listen.

Lex always looks like a high school kid reading morning announcements in his dad's suit. But then he's interviewing Elon and its like "Hey way to go kid."

I know Elon has a lot of fans and a lot of haters. But I genuinely ask how and why people cannot see his genius and his tenacity. He is leading humanity with the brightest minds behind him. With love and passion for all aspects of science and the progression of humanity.

Thru don't design for nominal. They design to fail and find operational limits

god , this guys really know how things works!!! my lead speaks like him and they can explain things up to the smallest details.

Does anyone know to what degree something like a merlin or raptor engine's combustion aspects are manageable via AI/software control? Things like the milli second rate at which one can adjust inputs fuel and mix ratios, the ability to cool various things in a controlled manner, or disable this valve or that etc. Or is much of the engine just engineered to perform in some optimal fashion without much finessing at the %0.1 level by AI? Ultimately I'm just curious how much latitude the designs have and how robust they are to variation in non nominal scenarios. For example, could they make raptors/rockets with modest random variations in the chamber, turbo pumps, injector palte at the %5 level and be confident that the sensors and AI alone can determine a reasonable working profile to accommodate the variation? Or is there just not that much leeway in the engineering or computer's ability to adjust things by design or hard physical limitations?

we had to invent several alloys that don't exist

We're getting there! Landed the booster and ship on Integrated Flight Test 4!!

Yeah gotta love when he says "There's a reason nobody has made one this high before" Yeah true but thankfully that seems like your area of exploration and intrigue which has produced everything you or companies have made. Keep going everybody else gave up brother and that's why I agree somebody go to make that difference for humanity to get to that next step.

You will make it work Elon! Its just (as you well know) a matter of trying and failing until you get it! Trying and failing with mixing chemicals and metals to make new substantial and resistant components handling the pressure and heat in the engines can be done! Keep up the hard and good work!

can someone please provide him with the gravity propulsion salvaged from aliens. he has been pulling his hair out thinking about rocket propulsion engines. Don't expect him to do everything FFS.

He does rockets, he loves the rockets

Elon mentioned that propellent and hot gas flow everywhere and they have a recursive effect on each other. That sounds like an unstable system prone to chaos and heavily dependent on what the initial conditions of the ship are. If we look to biology for some guidance on how to be successful, stable, and consistent--- I think redundancy is important (if one organ fails another organ can work harder), and the small things, if need be, can pick up slack for the large things or vice versa.

I like listening to him talk but the constant stutters annoy me. Takes him 5 minutes to finish a sentence.

If you doubt this man than you believe in the impossible.

Lex! Продолжай и не думай стопориться. Очень интересно.

And ermm, hmm and errrmm. Nailed the speaking as always.

the only feasible solution to fast track production is nanobots which can assimilate computer blue prints and align themselves physically with each other to formulate that physically. Also they will be reusable. as they can disjoint and reassemble any other way.

Shania Twain disliked this video

It must be pointy

I was lostttt until he said were gonna catch the rocket with giant chopsticks. lmaoo Elon is legendaryyy

I bet you nail it on the first try just to piss you off. Like "what?" That should have failed damn it. I want to see the big ka-boom! No but seriously, wicked idea to catch the rocked to save weight. That's nuts.

I cant wait to see " It Probably wont work the first time" Lol.

raptor is al about pushing material science.

I believe what Elon needs is deep in the earth. And an alchemist. Or an asteroid or get to mercury and get elements. Help bring here. Which is impossible

Lex Men In Black Friedman.

Genius

He has to be so careful about what he says.

love it when I have no idea what I'm listening to.

Sm🤩art and powerful man on world❤🌏

Sci-Fi.

If you see carefully you can spot jeff bezos here stealing notes looool

T T T T T TODAY JUNIOR!!

I thought he put a car in orbit

Best get my comment in before the elon fans get hold of this video :'D

Free Alex Murdaugh!

We’re never going anywhere with jet fueled propulsion, Elon needs access to that antimatter tech.

First off you are born to rich parents. Then you hire a bunch of smart people to build stuff for you. Then you take the credit for all their innovation and development. That’s how starship works

Pretends to be a rocket scientist, but really just pays the experts to figure it out.

$1 bet Mars will never happen.

But he isn’t an engineer -_-… and doing a poor job of explaining what his engineers explained to him lol
