SpaceX moved the Chopsticks and carriage to 39A. They were moved onto a temporary work platform where they were connected and then lifted onto the tower. The Chopsticks will be used to stack and catch Starship and Super Heavy. 📺: youtu.be/GBjLvl9a9HA

This camera was clamped 80 feet up to the MARS water tower looking down at Electron! It was placed before the rocket went vertical so it was mostly a guessing game on where exactly to point. Glad I guessed right!

To everyone comparing starship and SLS WDR, I would like to remind you that SLS uses a much harder to handle hydrogen and is a GSE system that is much older. It’s a not a apples to apples comparison.

Can SpaceX really launch 100 times in 2023? Elon Musk suggested that that is the goal. Falcon 9 is the workhorse of the fleet, but can enough boosters be turned around to keep up? Is their supply chain in order? 📺:youtu.be/JMhQyNnk-XQ
