Starship Flight 14: Full Mission (in under 10 minutes)

这档发布于2026年9月29日的播客，详细介绍了一项重要的SpaceX任务。 任务开始时，飞行器俯冲下行，导致了热分离，其中助推器在第一次主发动机关机（MECO）后，发动机数量减少到五台。飞船随后启动了六台发动机。助推器的返推阶段从33台发动机中的31台启动开始，随后减至三台，此后不久便完成了返推点火。助推器的着陆点火始于中央13台发动机，随后节流减至五台，最后减至三台，确认成功着陆。 随后，结束了“是否进入轨道”的投票，并决定“进入轨道”。入轨点火临近，控制员正在等待一台“猛禽”（Raptor）发动机点火。这台“单个猛禽”（Single Raptor）发动机成功保持点火，努力将飞行器推入轨道。随后，两台发动机关机，“二次点火”（Burn two）也关机，“板上”没有出现警报或异常。 “星舰”（Starship）随后开始着陆，任务即将结束。它执行了“倾斜机动”（bank manoeuvre），并准确地朝向着陆点。“星舰”的着陆点火启动，“星舰”成功着陆，尽管溅落被描述为“并非完全是柔软、超柔软的溅落”，“星舰”落入水中。 对当天事件的回顾确认，当天早上7点48分左右（中部时间）从星际基地（Starbase）发射。“超重型”助推器（Super Heavy）成功点燃所有33台发动机，将“星舰”送入太空，并在海洋中进行了着陆点火。最重要的是，“星舰”进入了轨道，完成了其“首次轨道插入点火”（first ever orbital insertion burn）。经过监测，启动了“提前重返夏威夷”（earlier re-entry to Hawaii）。 一项关键成就是部署了26颗“星链V3”（Starlink V3）卫星，并确认与所有卫星都建立了联系；预计它们将在未来几天内提升轨道。这被描述为“首次发射这些卫星取得了巨大成功”（wildly successful for the first time sending those out）。这一天也标志着一个历史性里程碑：正好是“猎鹰1号”（Falcon 1）在第四次飞行中抵达轨道18周年，为今天的成就奠定了基础。有人指出，这是“星舰的首次轨道飞行”（Starship's first orbital flight）。 其他新闻包括“飞船40号”（Ship 40）的最新情况，它正在返回星际基地（Starbase）的途中，并且目前位于北半球，这意味着“目前地球上有两艘，一艘半，星舰在水里”（two, one and a half, Starships in the water on Planet Earth right now）。广播还播放了一段视频，该视频是在V3卫星从“星舰”部署后从其中一颗V3卫星接收到的，将以前的动画可视化变成了现实。 播客以商业信息结束：新的20年“特斯拉”（Tesla）和“SpaceX”估值模型现已在Patreon上向投资者级别及以上的支持者开放。AG1被宣传为一种日常健康方案，强调其在能量、消化、免疫功能和肠道健康方面的益处，通过drinkag1.com/SMR提供免费迎新礼包，内含维生素D3+K2和旅行装。

This podcast, published on 2026-09-29, details a significant SpaceX mission. The mission began with the vehicle pitching downrange, leading to hot staging where the booster's engines powered down to five after the first MECO. Six engines then started on the ship. The boost back phase for the booster started with 31 out of 33 engines, then powered down to three, completing its boost back burn shortly thereafter. The booster's landing burn commenced with the center 13 engines, then throttled down to five, and finally three, confirming a successful landing. Following this, a "go no go poll for orbit" concluded, with the decision to "go for orbit." The orbital insertion burn approached, with controllers looking for a single Raptor engine to light. This "Single Raptor" successfully remained lit, working to push the vehicle into orbit. Subsequently, two engines shut down, and "Burn two" also shut down, with "no alerts or alarms on the board." The Starship then made its approach for landing, nearing the end of the mission. It performed a "bank manoeuvre" and was on target for its landing. The Starship's landing burn started up, and Starship successfully landed, though the splashdown was described as "not quite a soft, extra soft splashdown," with Starship landing in the water. A recap of the day's events confirmed the launch from Starbase that morning at approximately 7:48 a.m. Central Time. Super Heavy successfully lit all 33 engines to get Starship into space and performed its landing burn in the ocean. Most importantly, Starship made it to orbit, completing its "first ever orbital insertion burn." After monitoring, an "earlier re-entry to Hawaii" was initiated. A key achievement was the deployment of 26 Starlink V3 satellites, with confirmed contact made with all of them; they are expected to raise their orbit in the coming days. This was described as "wildly successful for the first time sending those out." The day also marked a historic milestone: 18 years to the day from Falcon 1 reaching orbit on Flight 4, setting the foundation for today's achievements. It was noted that this was "Starship's first orbital flight." Additional news includes an update on Ship 40, which is on its way back to Starbase and is now in the northern hemisphere, meaning there are "two, one and a half, Starships in the water on Planet Earth right now." The broadcast also featured a video received from one of the V3 SATs after deploying from Starship, making a previously animated visualization a reality. The podcast concluded with commercial information: the new 20-year Tesla and SpaceX valuation model is now live on Patreon for investor-level supporters and above.
