Space Exploration megathread

Since a number of cool things are happening in space exploration these days, we'll widen the scope of this thread a smidge. Conversation about all things space exploration are welcome, whether it be from NASA, SpaceX, ULA, Blue Origin, or anyone else. Chances are most of the discussion will still be about SpaceX since they love to make things public and fun, but nothing's off limits. I'll eventually get around to modifying the OP to include resources for other companies too, but in the meantime, feel free to post any cool stuff you run across.

That is just awesome. I wonder if those white engine bells indicate an engine that has not been test fired yet? I thought every engine was tested at Mcgregor. Maybe they had to rush a few and decided they could test in Boca?

Some of the plumbing on the Raptors sticks out past the booster’s edge. Seems like those lines are going to encounter a lot of air resistance.

Wow, and they are already moving out SN20 now as well. the frankencrane is still attached to BN4, but as fast as they have been moving I could see them detach, attach to SN20 and stack it today still as well.

Yeah, they were talking about the missing tiles some when I was watching. I wonder if it is by design to be able to get statistics on the differences between the tiles and untiled sections. With how much Elon talked about trying to remove components, I bet they would love to see how many of the tiles can just be eliminated to provide the needed amount of heat protection.

I haven't been watching for a while, but apparently the crane is detached from BN4 now, so it likely will be stacked today or I assume they would have left it attached to the booster longer.

Things are moving again now, SN20 moved over next to BN4 and they have the crane hooked up to it.

Talk in the chat is that they will stack it fully to test the fittings, then destack sometime and return things to the high bay to continue work that isn't finished yet, like some of the piping on the backside of SN20 and maybe more of the heat tiles.

It'll be a good photo op if nothing else.

Might be "EDT," but maybe?
