We are now doing weekly aerial flyovers depending on the support that we get. Our cost range from pilot fees to rental fees of the Cessna 172 that is used for the flyovers over the sites.
We have an opening in our team for more experienced writers! If you have writing experience and would want to take part, feel free to join the discord and open a ticket to let the mods know!

Thanks for Watching! - Наука та технологія
The slower slider is definitely better, thank you
Great job Indianstar! Thank you!
Don't think S26 will be scrapped. They're just moving it to a safe place for launch #2!
Excellent as ever.
Thank you!
Nicely done, @Indnstar ... !!! And thanks Mauricio, for the beautiful shots !!! See y'all soon !!!
what happened to mauritio ?
Appreciate the shots of the Village. Fantastic as always :)
Thanks!
Thanks RGV team!
Nice to hear Indnstar narrating! She has such a distinctive and wonderful voice for this. Glad to hear you.😊
long gas tanks for air separation at Sanchez are like moving to Massey. The gas demand for testing at Massey and the launch site is too lumpy - sometimes they need a little, sometimes a lot. Thus building more storage at Massey and concrete base for gas trucks. Overtime we should see the four sites covered in buildings, concrete and grass to minimise dust creation.
Look at R2 ....We were sitting beside it during the flyover.....very cool....white truck across from D2....15:07
Pure quality content. Excellent!
Concrete laid at Boca Chica isn't...that...concrete?🤔
S26 Will be the first ship to fully orbit the earth (if it's booster works as planned), then perform a de-orbit burn and test how much they break-up/disintegrate on re-entry. In other words test the consequences of using them as an "expendable" second stage.
Good show this week. Many thanks
This is a great update Indie. Many thanks.
I appreciate all the improvements you keep making to help us understand what we are seeing.
Love your name 👍
New Masseys building looks to be a garage with some offices, probably bathrooms in the center.
Test control centre upstairs - great view of the test stands, warehouse or repair centre out back.
and heres the slow slider.... vrooooom. and thats the difference.
just a tip, when you're comparing something with last week, a picture in picture would be pretty dope
Ship 26 could be a tower-landing test vehicle
We’re about two years from that happening
Nice work.
Oh yeah and..... Starship has been de-stacked and re-stacked since.
i'll be honest, part of me expected the new building at Massy's to be taller then 2 stories.
What happened to Mauricio?
Hey RGV. Is Mauricio cold?
tower -tanks go to massy site?
I bet those "holes on the side" are for the motors for the elevators.
11;15
Whats the chance that those black rimgs are "quick" change rings for the OLM?
Not really possible because the clamps don't full retracted and would be destroyed every launch.
I think S26 is an orbiting fuel tanker depot that will not land, the studs on the side are for solar panels.
The studs on the side are to attach tiles for re-entry: look at the pattern. The hull was built, then when the task of test orbital tanker target was assigned, no need for the tiles, nor flaps. And there's so much power available from the booster and the ship's own engines, the slight extra drag makes it not worth the effort to grind them off. As it's a test piece, then function and aesthetics go straight out the door. After testing it re=enters and burns up on the way down.
@paullangford8179 it will never re enter, it will remain in orbit and act as a fuel depot.
What happened to Spacex producing their own liquid nitrogen (and methane?) ? Why are they nuking their air separation unit?
The air separation unit used to produce LN2, LOX and Argon. We're not sure what is going to happen to that unit or the area where it is being removed from.
Methane production is far more complex and so far, SpaceX have been buying it.
@@StephanieB67 Thank you. That was quite an installation and it was a shock seeing it go. Same with the solar farm.
👍👍👍🇮🇳
,............mmmmk
S26 is a hot staging test vehicle if S25 hot staging fails or is not completely successful.
robo voice still ? Bring back the OG!
