[00:00:00]Ignition.

[00:00:06]We have liftoff.

[00:00:14]Tracking down range.

[00:00:28]Booster Raptor chamber pressure nominal.

[00:00:35]All right, we are T plus 30 seconds into flight. Seeing 33 out of 33 Raptor 3 engines on booster B3 ascending over the gulf now coming up on maximum aerodynamic pressure.

[00:00:50]Booster and ship avionics power telemetry nominal.

[00:00:55]Systems looking good. We're just passing through the period of maximum dynamic pressure.

[00:01:06]A little over a minute into flight now.

[00:01:09]Vibrations chilling out here at Starfactory as we continue to watch Starship flight 12 arc out over the gulf. The next major thing coming up is going to be hot staging.

[00:01:22]Booster props at sub-nominal.

[00:01:23]>> Raptor we do what's our version of MECO.

[00:01:26]Most engines cut off so we're going to shut down all but five of the Raptor engines on the booster.

[00:01:34]And then after that happens we're going to ignite the six engines on ship while it is still attached.

[00:01:42]We have clamps that hold the two together. Those are going to retract inside of that hot stage ring kind of protect them.

[00:01:51]Looks like we had one of the engines go out still flying on 32 of the Raptor engines, but again uh once we get the Again, going for landing burn, trying to light two of these Raptor sea level engines.

[00:02:09]Landing burn startup.

[00:02:11]Landing burn startup.

[00:02:15]Two engines lit.

[00:02:21]Successful flip.

[00:02:25]>> [cheering] >> Booey cam catching >> Successful flip.

[00:02:30]>> [cheering] >> Good shot, Tom.

[00:02:37]Oh!

[00:02:38]>> [cheering] [cheering] [applause]
