    It's so crazy to see how much Starbase has changed over the years! I will always be thankful for NSF for making it all accessible to see! Thanks as always guys
  • @MickRonald
    The slow motion video of the Raptor engine shutdown is awesome 8:47. Thank you NSF for the latest Starbase update.
  • @bideford7099
    Jack, Jack, Jack... You're actually getting us all hyped that IFT4 is not too far off, hopefully. Now we just need SpaceX NOT to impede NSF's cameras from catching all the history in the making. Love your enthusiasm!!!
  • Thanks for giving all this epic content earlier for members, you are an awesome channel please never stop doing what we all love.
  • Minor correction, concrete doesn't dry (thru evaporation), it cures (chemically binding the water to the cement).
  • @Jermine1269
    Thanks heaps for the update y'all!! Always appreciated to get those parts identified
  • Great Starbase update Jack and great video footage Mary, Sean, & SBL, Thank you!!!
  • @strykker666
    Thank you for yet another incredible update. The entire NSF crew is top notch, and deserves high praise.
  • @DebraJean196
    Great update Jack. Really appreciate a video that ties together all the random bits and pieces we see throughout the week into a cohesive whole so we can see the overall progress being made’
  • @sdebeaubien
    thanks Jack for the great report. We're eagerly anticipating the full WDR on B11/S29! Sounds like it may be not this week, but more likely the next, but we'll be watching. It is pretty amazing to see history as it's actually happening. Thanks to all @NSF staff for being part of this great reporting!

    Space X one of the leading engineers in spaceflight: proceeds to use rock to separate starship rings
  • Thank you for the update Jack. I ALWAYS look forward to YOUR content. Thank you for all that you do. Thanks to all the NSF crew. Peaceful Skies.
  • @eddiewhite1
    Thanks for the update, keep up the good work NSF
  • @queeg6473
    When the new office building is finished I think they will get rid of the old office building and replace it with a taller mega-mega bay. If they are gonna ramp up production of ring parts and make the ships and boosters longer they will need more space to stack them.
  • @SarahKchannel
    Are you guys allowed to have taller camera towers, so you can possibly peak over the walls being built ? Or are there rules how tall you can go ?
  • It's crazy to attempt a booster catch without a backup launch mount in my opinion. The OLM has been the most lead time piece to construct in the entire complex. It would be right underneath if the attempt fails. Time is THE limited resource for SpaceX. A safer approach would be to stack the tower sections for the second tower with priority to complete the catch system and use it on the first attempt(s).
