  • This week at Starbase SpaceX begins scrapping some of the original orbital tank farm, several Starships get shuffled around, and the last of the tents at the build site is brought down to make room for further expansion of the Starfactory building, while over at Cape Canaveral ULA performs its first Vulcan launch, Blue Origin rolls out its New Glenn first stage booster, and SpaceX continues launch and recovery operations, despite having one droneship down for repairs.

    I am surprised that Elon doesn't auction off or allow off duty engeneers repurpose and autograph these Stainless tanks for worker housing near the site as monuments to their amazing feats of emgenuity that SpaceX has done!!! What a cool place to stay for an engeneer working or visiting the origional Gateway to MARS!!!

    Question. Why doesn't Elon build his own road from manufacturing area to launch area instead of closing the public road all the time?

    • @bradallen1832
      @bradallen1832 4 місяці тому

      No land to purchase for that. Government owns some blocking lands, and government is notoriously inefficient at figuring out how to do stuff. However, there are some routes near the channel that goes to Port of Brownsville and near to the Rio Grande River that could be restored, more likely the one by the channel, for use by people visiting the beach, thus not requiring the use of the current historic Boca Chica Blvd / Highway 4 route.

    • @ModelSPlaid369
      @ModelSPlaid369 4 місяці тому

      I was literally saying this to the screen before I started to scroll down and read comments. 2 heads are better than one and I do agree. If it is possible to construct an employee only access road and also to navigate the days they would otherwise close the common road, they wouldn't have to constantly schedule closures since all of the movement of heavy equipment/machinery is done on a private road built for that purpose. This is not a wasted thought it has weight to it. This is valuable opinion to consider for SpaceX. A road for employees(with ID access gate/security) and get their equipment/machinery off the main road. Things could progress much more quickly that way. I know it is very wet there so maybe they did think about it and simply don't have the idea how to yet. Who knows. It's still a worthwhile venture to look into.

      SpaceX can build giant, single wall fuel and oxygen tanks to fly into and out of orbit ay hypersonic speeds, but apparently they have no idea how the useless local goobermint regulators want them to build static fuel and oxygen tanks with mutiple walls. No wonder government space programs are essentially unafordable, like everything else the gov't attempts to do. @@bradallen1832
