Waiting for two days and I missed it… Was there any notifications last night?
Thanks Tim, Gene and Rachel. Great video!
Happy birthday Everyday Dad. 🎁👍🏻
They started with a water tank, and now the grain silo. can’t wait to see the next flying thing. lol
So Epic, this is the start of something incredible.
I can do a similar thing with a coke can and some hairspray. Giza job…
What a great site to wake up to. From the UK, weld one to SpaceX, reminds me of “First Contact” film 😍
31 of these roaring. gives me a reason to live a little longer.
flying grain silo
YEAH
Saw this right after watching the original footage. Keep it up!
first grain bin to ever fly!!!
One of the best angles to watch from!
Omg, I’m so happy!
The mere existence of Elon gives me so much tranquility.

THIS. WAS. AWESOOOOOOOOOMEEEEEE!!!!
I can’t imagine how those tiny legs will support the rocket on Moon sand.
Aaaaaaaaahahahahaa MADNESS! 👏👏👏
Amazing. Congratulations to the SpaceX team. Flawless test, or so it seemed. Let’s get the nosecone on…👍😎
You’ve got one of the best angles!
Awesome. Great video. Thanks for the coverage!
Let me comment so I look back and tell my kids how we followed this great endeavour every step of the way. Glad to be here. Godspeed SpaceX!
Could someone please fill me in on the function of the awesome stream of gas that shoots out sideways before engine ignition?
Tim and Spacex got me super excited for spaceflight for the past 2 years.Great job guys for everything! I was up last night so I can watch a silo fly!
I was hoping you’d post something like this. THANK YOU! Too cool.
Elon’s next venture: getting grain to market in record time!
That was amazing, but I have to say it looks like a 2 liter bottle inside a can.
NANI!!! I trying refreshing the comments section but none showed up????!!!!!🤯🤯🤯
Amazing! Congrats to Elon and SpaceX for their hardwork and dedication.
But it’s missing something…. oh , I know. Tim screaming his head of “yeh, baby. Grain silos can FLY !!!!!”
So cool, so perfect.
Can’t believe how awesome and hilarious it looks. That grain silo just literally rose into the air.
Sooo Great Go See. Hope next time with nosecone.😀
Wow! just Wow!! is that with just one engine? my God that’s amazing!!
So what is the leak?
Wow, great work
That’s just beautiful! <3
Excellent coverage of the build up and flight, even if it was 1 am in the UK. Keep up the great work.
I’m quite young (15), so I can imagine myself buying starship ticket to mars in the near future and sitting on that beast!
YEAH.. WATER TOWERS CAN FLY
….
Good job space X…
(Now I can tell my friends that I was not the weirdo that tells watertowers can fly)
JK
Totally epic shot! Keep up the good work Tim and the team!
Well that’s by far the best video of it yet! I especially like the audio sync, as I don’t have my neurolink implant yet.
Watched this replay numerous times. I still cannot believe my eyes. 😲
Waking up at 5am was well worth it to wake up to this 😁
They’ve done it!
‘Be aware when all farners catapult their silos into the air’ 😜😅
How about Tim’s reaction in slow mo?
This is one of those moments that will go down in history, the beginning and the future of economical space flight. Well done space X 👏👏👏👏
First time in since I can remember that watching technological advance has brought me near to tears.
American friends of mine told me that SpaceX is really their only bright light at the moment. Well, shine bright and give us hope SpaceX!
Even in Slow-mo those bird’s where going pretty fast. 😂
I can’t actually comprehend how big that thing is, wish I was there in person! And the complexity of this feat is just mind boggling.
✋ 😀🤚 HIII HEY Everyday Astronaut
😀👍 🚀 YAY I AM LIKE 👍 🚀 WELCOME ! 🚀 🤗💙
Love this slow motion take!! Great job!
Amazing footage
All those years that I was so smug when I would tell my family and friends while we were watching my favorite 50s and 60s sci-fi movies that that’s not how rockets land…
Wooooot! Woot Woot Woot! Brilliant coverage, so happy to see that thing fly. The angle you got was much better than the SpaceX team got in Boca. Amazing!
Thank you so much for the extra footage, Tim! And spacepadreisle!
what a time to be alive
Hey, mr. Tim can you please do a video on the raptor leak?
They made it look so easy! I was actually laughing watching it live, it is just a very odd sight to see but absolutely unreal. Congrats to all at SpaceX
Should have got redbull logo painted on the side
Those landing leg deployment is really quick. @Everyday Astronaut Can you talk about it?
Wot. . . another ad for the Elon Musk Silo Relocation Program?
Can’t get to your corn? We’ll get your corn to you!
1:39 ground system explosion?
Bezos/Blue Origin…Hmm time to “hire” Space X engineers 😉
This is awesome!!!! We needed this happy freaking silo to go up, deploy landing legs and stick that landing! YEAH!!!!!!!
Something blew up on the ground when it was lifting off!!! You see at tine stamp 0:07 that there was a flash of light in the smoke, different from the way the exhaust lights up the smoke. Then at 0:08 you see 6-7 large black pieces of debris fly up just to the right of the craft and moving away from the craft.
I remember watching the Ring of Fire – Grasshopper video back in the day and I was flooded. This is so much crazier!
I missed it last night but thanks for this great footage Tim
Love from india🇮🇳
Star hopper watching from the back cheering: Fly my child, Fly!
Alright we’ve seen a water tower fly, a silo take to the air
Bring on Starship!
It’s literally just a tin can flying, and I love it.
awesome footage! does anyone know what that explosion was shortly after SN-5 lifted off the pad?
can’t decide whether it looks like a silo or one of those hip reusable metal water bottles… i mean.. That Thingy On Top™️ looks exactly like a water bottle cap 😂
This looks incredible! Great work
A flying thermos! Totally need one of these for my lunch box! (OK, you have to be over 50 to get this.)
Great footage Tim. We Appreciate your work. Your reactions live realty set an exciting ambiance 😂 👍
Amazing! Great coverage of the hop today!
Question for you Tim. With your relationship with Elon, have you been granted special access to cover these events?
Yes! Interplanetary!
(Look at those thrust diamonds!)
Man, that single Raptor engine is powerful!
I cried during the hop…
Birds: “What the hell is that?!?!?”
Humans: “…………YEAH!!!!!!”
Cats: “I’ve seen better…”
It’s a Bird!
It’s a Plane
NO! IT’S STARSHIP!
Just a gigant silo flying croocked thanks to a full flow combustion engine powered by methalox in slowmo.
The way you celebrate was awesome ❤️
Tim your SN5 static fire scrub stream made it #36 on trending a bit ago
Ah, a creative way to relocate your grain silo you placed in the middle of your midwest farm crops.
“For a brick, he flew pretty good!” -Sergeant Johnson
Those birds freaked out
And by the flight of a grain silo, the future of spaceflight and human innovation takes a step forward. We truly are on the path to the human inhabitation of Mars! And I am honored to view it live!
Someone was betting 10 bucks in the chat that it goes boom boom.
Thank you kind sir, I am waiting for my 10 bucks! (Thanks to Elon and team)
On my top ten of the most extraordinary things I have ever witnessed .
I am so glad I watched this live, even though it was in the early hours of the morning where I live in Germany. Thanks once again for the excellent coverage Tim, Gene and Rachel.
everyone in the comments: “Look! a flying silo.” “Flying water tower.”
Most amazing, exciting, Earth-changing thing I have ever scene.
It’s like seeing a Sci-Fi fantasy becoming our real lives.
We’ll never be the same.
I’ve rewatched this like 100 times today, and everytime it puts a huge smile on my face knowing what this means for the future of spaceflight!
2020’s so bad even grain silos wanna get off the planet
Jokes aside this years been great for spaceflight so far
This gives me hope to be alive when we arrive to mars
somehow a grain silo doing a hop is the most beautiful thing I’ve seen all week
I can’t imagine 31+ raptors on a single vehicle. That’s going to be absolutely wild
