Hot Staging Explained | Starship Orbital Flight 3 Analysis
210In this deep dive analysis, we'll explain exactly how hot staging works, why SuperHeavy successfully completed its boost-back burn and how Starship made it to orbit but lost control before re-entry, and everything else you wanted to know about Starship Orbital Flight 3!
This is so much more than a Starship flight 3 recap video thrown together the day after the launch. This is a deep analysis of SpaceX's Starship IFT-3 put together after countless hours scrutinizing the footage and working out the physics of hot staging.
We’ll break down and analyse SpaceX’s Starship Integrated Flight Test 3. We’ll review what’s changed since flight 2, then examine key moments such as the launch, hot staging, booster landing, in-space demonstrations, and re-entry. Then we’ll discuss the positive and negative takeaways, and finally finish off by considering what’s next for Starship.
Enjoy and share it far and wide!
