You actually make it to space? I usually just end up creating shitty versions of the V1 with passengers.
The Kerbal solution is more rockets.
The actual solution is probably some control surfaces for the atmosphere, reaction wheels for space (both for steering) and upscaling to the biggest rocket available with no more than 2 largest size fuel tanks for each rocket. SRBs are your friend until they aren't. Stabilizers save more fuel than imagined.
Oniom boosters is the go, use fuel and drop repeat.

Thanks to this stabilization I've come to the expert conclusion that that shit spun yo
I only re posted a repost from TikTok
Lemmy has declared you a sinner for this.
I hesitated a lot. But in the end I havenβt seen this anywhere else and it really showed what was happening. In the end I decided to post it.
It is a cool video but you used the words "repost" and "tik tok" and that triggered automated downvotes lol

Thanks for posting, interesting stuff.
Thanks, never do it again.
Wow. You must be some kind of rocket scientist!
No, heβs a rocket surgeon!
Missed opportunity to put it to the docking song from Interstellar
No, it's necessary!
The song is called No Time For Caution by Hans Zimmer. Because when Hans isn't falling asleep on his organ, he actually makes so damn good music.
I know. I was quoting Interstellar :)

This made my dizzy and that doesn't help with the fact that I discovered you can get nausea and headaches from drinking matcha on an empty stomach an hour ago

Ticktock watermark ππ but this is a really cool video
Yeah. I hesitated posting because of TikTok. But I felt the video explained things in a way I had not seen anywhere else and it was worth it.
The Starship video in general is so cool. And I love the stabilizing effect in this one, it really does help.
Good thing they also sped it up by about 4x or we never would have noticed. π
The whole point of this video is to emphasize the rotation of the vehicle. Speeding it up does help with that. You can watch the official feed of you want to watch in real time.
It's an excellent video. The realtime feed made it look like everything was great, fully under control. This shows that it really wasn't near the end, and it's loss wasn't truly "unexpected"

You could see how uncontrollable it was even on the stream itself. They have graphics showing the positioning of the ship. Seems like RCS packed it up and decided to go home (burned to crisp)
Nothingβs going to stop it now.
It's just out there enjoying life having fun. Good job rocket.
