Nice work Indnstar and RGV team 🚀
Brilliant video with so much information. I must have paused a dozen times. Thanks RGV and Indnstar.
Thanks!
What happened to Mauricio?
Absolutely concise assessment, thank you Indisnstar and Mauricio ❤
Thank you team. Great coverage

Great job Indnstar 👏👏👏
Great videos, thanks so much
Great job
Exellent Indistar and RGV team
Love these reviews, thanks RGV
Good Job Indian star and Mauricio. Have a good one.
Nice job, I remain a fan of the sweet lady Indnstar🫶🏻
Good report.
.
That ASU was a Nitrogen (N2) & Oxygen (O2) gaseous plant. The only liquid it was designed to make was Argon and running 100%, it took 2 days to make a truck load of liquid Argon. It's design was 325 tons a day of 99.5% O2 gas.
That ASU would take about 10-days to make enough O2 for the Starship to be loaded up once BUT that gas would have to be liquified before the Starship could use it.
I "guess" they wanted the ASU to maintain purities on the O2 and N2 lines everywhere but they would have to run a lot pipelines or maybe just have a source for the Argon for welding???
A bigger ASU to meet Space X's needs could not fit in the area the current area that ASU is using .
Any liquid O2 (or N2) trucks seen connected in the area were probably to unloaded liquid to speed up the startup of the ASU. It can start without any additional liquid but it takes about 2+ days to cool down. With liquid takes about 6-8 hours to startup.
Well that's just my 2 cents...
.
Great video as usual thanks. Just don't understand why people think cyber trucks are futuristic. Look like a first school metalwork project to me. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I really like this announcer. Easy to understand, and funny!
Thank you for your feedback
Interesting video, almost makes me wonder if someone at SpaceX is reading the comments. I recently posted that they should circumvent the Fish and Wild life concerns about fresh water getting into the salt marsh by collecting the deluge runoff and processing it for reuse or as I’m thinking now with the open topped tanks that are typically used to process waste water for release. Letting the water released in a controlled and delayed action to minimize impact and the new parking lot if surrounded by walls or set below grade could be used as a short term retention pond for the deluge runoff and as you say parking overflow when drained.
All that being said I am waiting patiently to see the liquid oxygen header moving further aft in the ship simplifying pipe runs and clearing space in the front of the rocket for other uses. If they were to move it back in the space ship then they could work on developing a seam to split the ship into a top and bottom section. Doing this could allow them to insert any type of payload section into a ship reducing hardware that would be abandoned in space and simplify a moon lander since the payload and crew section is the only part required to land. The sea level and orbital engines could be parked in orbit around the moon, payload landed, then the crew section with moon landing engines flown back up to orbit and docked with the primary engines for return to earth.
Miss hearing Mauricio on the narration. :/
Glad I'm not the only one who thinks that. Bring back Maurico!
Well done team. Nice vocals. 🎉
It was someone else's idea but I still wonder if that new building at Massey's might be a permanent launch control centre. The one at the Ad Astra school looks pretty temporary to me. I can see arguments for and against.
The argument for - if the new building is just office space for people at Massey's then why not make it a regular 2 storey building instead of a space-inefficient mezzanine level? If it was a launch control centre though then a mezzanine level could make a lot of sense as a viewing gallery for VIP guests overlooking the control area.
The two argument(s) against - (1) A mezzanine level could make sense if it was a dual purpose building with half being 2 levels of office space and the other half being a tall storage/work area big enough to do indoor work on test tanks and (2) would it have a clear line of site to the launch pad and if not would that matter? I seem to remember a video of Elon Musk running outside to look at the first Flacon Heavy once it had cleared the pad so does that mean that Falcon 9 launch control has no line of site to its pad i.e. that isn't an important design consideration?
With steel now being put up I guess we'll find out soon enough.

Friday October 26th? RGV getting photos from the future! (No launch at that point either though.....) /s
Maybe they're moving air separation plant to the new blacktop area at the launch site
It's most likely a car park but that could also happen, would make sense!
I would think it would be concreted for that
Needs. More. Solar Panels. 😁
i think they are getting rid of the air seperation unit for good. I think its easier and cheaper just to buy it.
abandoning the separation plant doesn't make a lot of sense, to me. but then, removing the solar farm and the satellite tracking dishes didn't, either. are they running out of room for it all?
if power is the scarcest resource, here, then i wonder, could this have implications on plans for ISRU at mars?
Yay! Indnstar! 😁
Where is weekly episode 95? I had hoped it would be released yesterday (Saturday) yet it is early evening Sunday here in the UK and no sign yet... is that format being abandoned for the shorter flyover updates?
I'll call the can crusher Wesley.
What's going on at the solar farm? Looks like 3/4s of the panels are removed and grading going on.
I miss Mauricio's voice in the description. I do hope all is well with him and he returns soon.
The script seems to have been written by the same writer as the patter is recognizable I just got use to Mauricio's voice. (Sorry if I have misspelled your name Mauricio! )
Nice one Indie. Great to hear you covering all this
👍👍👍🇮🇳
anyone notice this is all build at sea level.... so they do not seem to worry about sea level rise... anyone ?
Climate change and sea-level rising will be a problem at Boca - urghh...
I feel like I'm watching Romper Room with all the obsequious comments.
Bring back Mauritio ... robo chick voice isn't the same.
UA-cam ads are soul sucking.

sorry Indnstar, but i miss Mauricio ..
The dirty plane flys again! Old news…
Thanks for the content! Fyi script is quite wordy. Seems like half of the words can be removed to send the same message.
❤❤@indnstar ! Loved this episode!
can we all just agree to keep calling Twitter Twitter?
Everybody needs to stop spreading the misinformation that the "delay" is FAA related. They couldn't even launch right now, even if the FAA go the go ahead a month ago. The ground service equipment has been disconnected and undergoing upgrades since the first launch attempt. They're also still doing checks on booster and ship with all these re-stacks. These channels show all this as well but feed elon propaganda that it's FAA's fault. I can't wait for this thing to launch but can't stand all the bs elon stirs.
What BS is Elon stirring?
That's stupid! SpaceX would likely have ask the FAA how long would it take for the licence to come. And depends on the amount of time remains they will choose to do whatever upgrade that will fit in. Government department typically may not reply to outsiders in details but they will reply to the party that's directly involved. They are working together.
If the licence was indeed imminent, SpaceX would have use a temporary setup to launch B9/S25. As long as it wouldn't blow up as badly as B7/S24.
@98900945r lol, the upgrades were planned a long time ago and there is no temp solutions to launch. The piping to fuel up and for deluge is disconnected, literal pipe sections are still missing. So if anything it's the FAA that knows they have time to do a proper look through. There's never really been any issue before and they've gotten the go ahead when things were actually ready.
The tank farm and deluge system are currently operational. They haven't cut into the existing system at the OTF yet.
@@StephanieB67 They've added more coolers and pumps and only recently started adding the new flanges, so these systems are still disconnected. We will know when things are fully connected again when we see trucks offloading again and purges happening.
your slider" is way to fast and so - useless
If only YT had a way to slow the video down...
Use 0.25x speed or PAUSE? 😂🤦♂️
So whats your real name?
not really an enthusiast you can sense that she is not really into it.
The continual attempts of (awful) humor ruin this video report. Just stick to the facts....
You must be a fantastic party guest...
Party pooper
I got lots of facts out of this video. I appreciate all of the hard work the RGV team does to produce this content, and I say Indnstar did a great job sharing it with us!
@@leafystreet9247 what were they complaining about specifically?

What happened to Mauricio?
