      In my dreams I see SpaceX erecting a modular component double-carriage electric robotic railway over Route 4 that could stay within the current road footprint, to both carry flight components between build, test and launch sites, and as two way commodities transport using self propelled modular trains from a port to the launch site tanks. If this isn’t just a developmental facility, such a railway would greatly facilitate a rapid launch cadence as well as reducing the environmental impact of so many trucks on that long, little road and the fuel they burn to get there.

      I wouldn't be surprised if they hold off moving B12 to the pad until after it passes. They had a closure the other day that was classed as a booster move but they didn't use it so that could be why. We'll see though!

      @@HarryNicNicholas That would have taken some sort of action from SpaceX as these are large airtight Ships. They would have had to command the ship to open all the pressure relief valves to allow the water into the tanks. That may or may not work depending on the orientation of the ships in the water. A more sure action would be to activate the FTS while there are still remnants of fuel and oxidizer. I don't think that SpaceX or NASA wants that technology to fall into unfriendly hands.

      The tower is made up of sections of steel boxes. Those need to be welded together - a time consuming job. That is done on both the inside and outside, which is why they the need the protective tarps.
      Once that is done they can fill the boxes with concrete (the 4 legs are already filled).
