  1. Thanks Jack and NSF Side note: Blue Origin's Launch Site IS definitely Out In The Sticks, isn't it? You could prob get a better view from Goggle Earth than in person๐ŸŒŽ Also, how was the Bustling Metropolis of Van Horn? ๐Ÿ™

  3. I figured the second set of stairs were being tested and check to make sure everything was right on them to be used on a secondary or third launch platform. It is cheaper to have a contractor build several sets of cat walks or stairways if you know you're going to need them later all at the same time instead of having them come back over and over. This is done over in the oil and gas industry. And you get a better price on the materials ordering multiples all at once, while at the same time avoiding supply chain issues at a later date. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

  4. Great video! Have you guys ever considered partnering with RGV Aerial Photography? There is a lot of vital updates and information you guys are missing being limited to the ground.

  5. If only SpaceX offer multiple separate video feeds at the same time, imagine a bunch of space nerds taking over a sports bar, and all the monitors in that bar had different views of StarShip first orbital launch on them๐Ÿ“บ๐Ÿ“บ๐Ÿ“บ๐Ÿ“บ๐Ÿ˜…

  6. Thanks for the update Jack and co ๐Ÿ˜Š

    On the subject of the sprint-crawl pace of development at Starbase, I can't help feel that this might be a reflection of when Elon is and isn't devoting his attention to Space X, versus his other ventures (Tesla, Twitter, Neuralink etc) … ๐Ÿค”
