Primary reason for the curves on the OLM pieces inside is exactly what Das said. It’s to ensure no single point of failure develops. A square corner will tend to be a stress point and start a crack that then runs through the entire section. Rounding eases and spreads the strain therefore no cracking. In some cases, such as aircraft aluminum, if you get a stress crack at a point which will relieve some of the stress, but you don’t want it to go all the way to failure, you put a small hole at the end of the existing crack. It’s called “stop drilling”. The hole being round has a lot of effect relieving any remaining stress.
always have round corners to openings the de Havilland Comet had square windows they started to have stress fractures very quickly and there was some crashes because of it
10:08 the roundness makes it spread out structural stress evenly unlike a sharp corner where it concentrates stress on a very small area. Same reason why we dont see square windows on airliners (at least on a modern one.)
Do you always talk to yourself, ask questions, and never get an answer - I think you need a person with you to make your conversation make sense and you don't look like an idiot...

Check most large circular saw blades. They too have slits with stop drilling.
that closeup of Ship 34's nosecone is shocking. it looks so smooth in every regard, its crazy to think SpaceX made such progress in 3 years!
Das "Is it gonna move? Well it's on a truck so I guess it will move" HAHA Love the commentaries!!!
8:34 Petition for camel cam! Thanks NSF for these great dailies!
at 8m 26s we can see how big Starship is compared to a human; really great shot
It‘s much easier that way: 8:26
Rounded openings, helps hinder metal fatigue (cracking at openings)
Thanks for offering narration on these lately!
Thanks Das as always. ...love these...loving the 'Tardis' !!!!! Random😂....Great catch-up 😊

I went to the grocery store yesterday. Well, my fiancé did. I'm so glad.
Thanks as always for the update NSF ❤
Regarding the siding of the parking garage - the shape looks a lot like the "SpaceX" name, with room for the swoosh off the X on the upper right.

Gen 2 starship is doing the best X-33 impression so far.
rapidly refusable lol 6:13 lol
Lol can you imagine if the stream of consciousness lasted the whole video... 😂
Love Das narrative
S34 is looking neat. 😊😊😊❤
Great...another one
rounded openings - think airplane ; early maybe electra or dc3. square windows = broken plane, stress cracks.
skirt stringers don't have holes anymore? when did that change?
Das ❤
I think them there new parts are for a rollercoaster so when people visit Starbase they will have something to do
A double wide Tardis 😂 SpaceX just needs to paint it blue, I guess SpaceX is now traveling through Space and time.
BTW us hang glider pilots call those cumulus clouds...thermals
and at 11.01 great spmt video. Please forgive me for so many comments but since you lead the Space Industry Media....
Only 30' man up Das
Swatch = Swap & Watch
I can't wait for the Version 2 Silver Bullets, just to watch people pull their hair out over S26's descendants. 🤣
What happened to the non-talky audio?
If you click the gear (settings) than go to Audio Track and switch it to English (United States)" should be just ambient Audio
@@carsonphillips4564 Okay. I watched the video when it just went up and I guess they hadn't added it yet.
@@o0shad0oo Yeah, youtube takes a few minutes to process it after it goes public for some reason
Oi TV 🎉

👀🐔👀🐔 I don't think the OLM will be mobile. Why move it ??? Chopsticks, SPMT's, transport stands are made and in use. No need to move the OLM...
i wil say 2 pakks is 2 bmp
