Welcome back, Tankwatchers! This week at Starbase, we're buzzing with excitement as we see a full stack return to the pad for testing ahead of Flight 4, the rollout of Starbase’s second launch tower sections, and near-completion of the main footprint of Starfactory. Plus, we have updates from the Federal Aviation Administration on the Flight 3 mishap investigation. Join NSF's Jack Beyer for an aerial and ground-level tour of all the developments, including new test stands, the latest on Ship 26, Ship 31's anomaly, and a closer look at the massive new Starfactory. 🚀

Flight 4 Merch! shop.nasaspaceflight.com/collections/starship-orbital-flight-test Patches are coming out of preorder and shipping this week! 50 percent already gone (and when they are gone, they are gone) - I know that sounds like an awfully worded ad, but to avoid disappointment.

Another wonderful update video. Hey, since starbase has developed quite a lot since 2019 and is looking like its coming to its final shape, atleast for the build site, could you guys make a timeline video? It would be so cool to see a timelapse with commentary of how things progressed from 2019 or even before and how bays and tank farm got made, demolished and new ones erected or laid down! Specially with the buildings like star factory, tower itself at launch site people would love to have one single video to refer to when they quickly want to check out how many months it took SpaceX to make it? Please consider this request and atleast keep it in the video queue. Love you guys❤

Maybe the 2nd tower is for the catching of the boosters as if something goes wrong they will mess up there launch pad, makes way more sense to me to launch from the current OLM and catch at another. The catch tower then doesnt need any fueling stuff, any deluge system and less infrastructure near by to be damaged, its only going to take 1 ship to fall off the chopsticks at the current OLM and it could take out the new tank farm.Once Landed/Caught they just roll it to the bays for checks etc then back to the OLM for another flight. In fact i'm so pleased with this idea if they don't do this i thin we should tell them somehow. Btw if this has already been suggested i didn't know lol

After WW2 the whole Soviet Union was rebuilt with prefabricated blocks produced on huge factories. I have a couple of books with typical residential buildings. Back then architectors could use only special blocks from catalogs. Like playing lego in real life. The fastest construction was finished in two weeks for a 5 stories building. It's interesting to see that these technologies are still in use. I thought they were abandonned for a more flexible design process.

I still think Mr. Musk may try to slip it in before the last day of May. Alternatively, June 6 would be appropriate, eh? A D-Day of a different sort? But I like the new flame trench at Massey's, looks like it should work great. Of course, you'd need about triple that for all the Booster engines. We shall see if they build one for the 2nd tower, eh? Great update Jack, entire @NSF team! You guys rock! It's so cool to watch these every week and be kept nearly totally up to date!

All the KZfaqrs that talk about Ship 31's electrical short turning Sparky or Arcy don't seem to mention that it could have been Boomer or Boomee. With the power in those arcs greater than an arc welder or a cutting torch, even though no Methane was used, even cutting a small hole in a pressure tank could have easily popped catastrophically similar to SN1. With the thrust coming from the failure on the side, there could have been greater damage to the site.

Arcy is a pretty good name for ship 31 I like that. Sky crane is fun, having worked with them though, I will tell you that initially grabbing the tag line on the load when it arrives can hurt a whole lot. The blades of the helicopter whipping through the air generates a ton of static electricity and you ground yourself to it when you grab the tag. Still an incredible experience though.

@michaeldeierhoi4096 27 күн бұрын

A flame trench at the Maissy site is understandable because it does not have to be as deep as would be needed for booster testing which can only be conducted at the OLM with the steel plate water deluge. A flame trench at the OLP was never a realistic option because of the depth required for the flame trench for booster testing and the high water table.
