00:00On May 22nd, 2026, SpaceX flew version 3 of the Starship for the first time.
00:08And at the end of this flight, there was a single sentence from Elon Musk on X,
00:13which is more important for the entire program than anything else on that day.
00:19Not a single heat shield tile burned through.
00:22Anyone who has followed Starship over the past two years knows
00:26why this is perhaps the greatest milestone of the entire program.
00:31The booster was lost, hit the water hard and exploded.
00:36One engine failed on the upper stage.
00:39And yet, or maybe precisely because of that, this flight was a triumph.
00:44And today we are going to go through it piece by piece
00:47with all the details that were visible in the stream.
