Finally! Starship's Second Starbase Launch Tower Rises! - SpaceX Weekly #119
Wasting no time following last week's launch, SpaceX is back in "Full Send" mode and working around the clock. With a new crane arriving and the pile cap getting placed for the next launch tower, crews are pushing forward with construction of the next launch complex. Meanwhile, with stacking of Booster 15 in full swing, crews begin stripping Ship 30 of its TPS tiles following an engine swap.

    Cambios Una de las características de SpaceX es su constante evolución. Hasta el momento no se ha detenido sino que continúa evolucionando no importando las grandes inversiones en prototipos que han funcionado a la perfección. Mientras evoluciona y aumenta sus tamaños y diámetros; los anteriores se van quedando obsoletos. Pero si les dijera que estos prototipos tienen una segunda oportunidad para seguir siendo útiles y hasta mejorados!!! Que les parece un pequeño adapté aquí y otro allá? Los sistemas V1 tienen 9 metros de ancho, los V2 tendrán 12 o 15, no se. Y posiblemente los V3 tendrán más diámetro. Y si les dijera que un booster de V2 puede utilizarse con una Starship de V1 aparte de su Starship V2 para lo que será construido. Y así el V3 podrá lanzar Starships V1 y V2 aparte del V3 para lo que será necesario. Y como esto es posible? Simple: conexiones cónicas, en su parte inferior el diámetro o ancho del V2 y V3 y en su parte superior los diámetros de V1 y V2 dependiendo de la necesidad. Inclusive podrían tener un adapte para las Falcón Heavy. Será posible que todos esos prototipos que han funcionado puedan darnos mayor utilidad? O es que no se acuerdan del diseño de las naves de las misiones Apollo? Dónde están esas mentes brillantes?

    @Roarmeister2 Před 3 dny

    Can anyone answer these questions: SpaceX has already said that Starbase factory in Texas will build all the spacecraft but Florida will become the working flight launch site with Starbase relegated to flying prototypes. Since Launch Pad 39a is going to have 2 towers constructed for launching Super Heavy, how do they intend to ship the booster and starship over to Florida from Texas? By truck? By rail? By barge? In pieces with final assembly in Florida? If so then they need to build an assembly building. If shipping full size components, are they shipped horizontally or vertically? These things are huge and MUCH larger than a Falcon 9. Regardless of the shipping method, they will require additional testing to ensure that nothing got broken during the transport to the site. What kind of testing facilities will be built in Florida?

    • @Spectator1959

      The coolest method would be to launch them in Texas and land them in Florida. I fear it’s unlikely, but would be very Elon-zen… the best barge is no barge.

    Side topic: I’ve been wondering from the start why the shorter chopsticks for tower 2? Is it possible they will use tower 2 as a primary launching tower and tower 1 as the primary launching & catching? I’m not saying tower 2 has too short of arms to catch, but they might be?.?. It seems they will need as much length as possible to catch a booster or ship.?.? Any thoughts out there to my input? Or has someone already learned why they designed the shorter chopsticks?

    Instead of catching the Starship and Booster in the chopsticks, there is a better idea… Dig a large, deep hole… Construct a huge, elastic net… Place the net securely over the hole… Pull one side of the net back… Throw Biden and all the rest of the democraps into the hole… Piss into the hole… Fill the hole back up with dirt…. Store the elastic net for future use… Use the original tower and chopsticks as originally designed. Have a great day…

  • @DiamondPaintWithDiamondDave

    What I love about SpaceX is that they waste zero time getting things done...They formulate an idea, and put it into practice...no bureaucracy and endless meetings. Its mainly why they've been able to advance the technology as much and as quickly as they have. NASA would still be having 10 meetings a day about various aspects of the new launch tower, and then putting forth proposals for bidding, waiting for bids, picking a winner, holding a press conference to announce the winning bidder, then more meetings with the contractor to put forth more ideas and changes to the design, and it would be 2040 before the first piling was driven into the ground...
