Spoilers from the future but this is exactly what it looks like. It worked very well when testing it with Ship 26.

I'm guessing that the opening in the factory wall facing the office building will be utilized once the property not owned by SpaceX is owned by SpaceX and not as a connection to the office building

Great photos and great flyover as always - appreciate what you all do and your time. That said, I really think you should consider swapping Stephanie hosting with Todd. Or make amends with Thomas, because he was the GOAT. I appreciate what Stephanie has to say when I can understand him, but that's rare. It isn't the accent, he constantly mumbles and slurs his words to the point that I can only understand one or two words out of several sentences. It isn't personal - but he needs to not host and take a role where he can focus on improving his presenting skills and voice. Todd is far more articulate and understandable. Steph would be fine for side commentary but he's not host material. Presentation does matter so I hope you'll understand this is intended to be constructive and not an insult to Steph. I can promise you I'm not alone in thinking this and have even skipped some episodes because of it.

sorry guys latest utube anti adblock feed is making it basically unusable for me... I rather stop watching it than being force-fed hours of that crap. Please start streaming somewhere else!

I don't see any cable spools for the chopsticks or cable spool for the elevator in the Tower 2 yard yet. Wouldn't be totally wild to think that for $10-20M they will have a tunnel for the LOX to be loaded down the road from the OLS Tank Farm.

Yall should consider ads for these 😂

👍👍👍🇮🇳

And I have never heard anyone in America call the ground floor and the first floor two different floors

Why does that one guy just say "agreed" to everything

I figured it out, they are going to lift ship 26 into the triangle so it is sticking out the roof of the office building

yall need some coffee before coming on the show. sound tired, low energy as Trump might say lol

Approx 1hr in - ablative tile on top makes no sense in terms of rapid reusability - the whole point of an ablative tile is that it burns away taking the heat with it. As such, if the ablative tiles were the outermost part of the heat shield, they would need to be frequently replaced, if not every flight then certainly every second or third flight imho. Doesn't make for a rapid turn-around of the ship. Another thought - if the new "thicker & stronger" ceramic tiles are on top of the ablative tiles underneath, how will the ceramic tiles be fixed to the ship - separate pins or glued to the ablative tiles beneath. If the former, no problem if a ceramic tile comes off, it the latter could the ceramic tile compromise the ablative tile beneath when it comes off??

Superb stream again - amazing photos and great commentary. Thanks all.

Nice work Steph et all!

Good stuff narrators. Learnt a lot (again!)

why does that dude always sound like he is stopped up with a head cold?

No, The British call the bottom floor the Ground floor. USA calls the bottom floor the first floor. Keep trying, you'll get it.

Great show guys as always! So much work is put into these streams!

At Massey’s the flame trench wall has been leaking since the beginning in the 2 wall joints nearest to the QD edge on the left wall as you are looking towards Mexico. When you were trying to answer the question you did not have the right pictures up to see it but I have been following this issue from the start. One joint just looks damp usually but the closest one has enough at times to stream water down the trench ramp.

Offset crawlers on large cranes: Increased Stability: When lifting incredibly heavy loads, a crane needs all the stability it can get. Offsetting the crawlers creates a wider base for the crane, which helps distribute the weight more evenly and reduces the risk of tipping. Imagine a triangle - the wider the base, the more stable it is. The offset crawlers achieve a similar effect. Improved Maneuverability on Uneven Terrain: Construction sites aren't always flat and smooth. Offset crawlers allow the crane to "crab" sideways, which means it can move diagonally without needing to turn completely. This is particularly useful on uneven ground or in tight spaces where a full rotation might be difficult.

1:31:15, this track offset is exactly how it is on the Abrams tank, its done so they can have torsion bars that can go across the entire width of the vehicle for its suspension, because the amount of flex is proportional to the length of said torsion bars.

Thanks for the great visuals and commentary!

hmmmm Maybe hoppy is going in the triangle in the new office building ?

Looking at the office building open triangle section. Could Star Hopper fit in that open section? Just a thought.

Gotta mute the discord sounds or tell whoever keeps joining and disconnecting to stop

Great flyover show!! Congrats on 120 Eps. also thank you so much for everything you all do to make this happen!!!

What if those footings by office building are to match the other sides angled section?

Great stream today!

Thank you Steph - Masseys (like the tractor) not Maceys (like the store). You've made one long-term viewer very happy as 'Maceys' used to grate. Only slipped a couple of times! Another absolutely awesome in-depth episode. So glad that that the team at RGV produce these videos to keep all of us armchair rocketeers up-to-date. Onward to OLIT2/OLM2 and IFT-5! A question regarding booster testing. So far we have seen S26 testing the flame trench at Masseys and as far as I remember the QD is only positioned for the ships. I guess that they will be testing the boosters at some point - will they be doing that at Masseys and will it need an additional QD for that?

Huge day today. Steph finally figured out how to pronounce Masseys lmao

dead air

Many thanks on the show.

Want the location of pad 2 mean that launches from it will overfly the 1st pad and tank farm?

This channel should be bigger. There are so many spacex fans in places like reddit that would dig stuff like this.

Looks like stainless steel was a very good idea. Don't think there's a lot of materials that would have held up as good accept maybe Monel or Inconel which are ridiculously expensive.

We tell ourselves things. Now move the fuel tanks.

Nice show Mauricio! I enjoy Zack, but it’s great how this team with BJ commented. Very well done on the fly.

The Biden administration is doing everything to promote the Chinese communist agenda, to make America last, to give the lead to China in every front, including science and space exploration. That is why they destroyed the Aracebo radio telescope, and now they want to destroy the Hubble telescope. Landing the starship on the ocean is a gift to China. The Indian navy reported that the Chinese submarines have already started salvaging operations to take the Starship out of the ocean.

Guys what starship just landed this is mind blowing to see in June 2024 (9)

Is isn't it just insane to attempt to catch the booster so near to the launching installations in case something goes wrong....

Growing up, I'll bet these guy never thought they'd be paid to just guess the answer to questions that they have no confirmed answers to. Paid to guess..wow
