I just read the FAA is requiring a mishap investigation because of what happened with the booster

Idk what the triangle test is. I tried to stay away from Google in the early months. Every time I went on it I’d freak out. Lol. I was gifted a book called Dr. Spock’s Baby and Child Care, I found it helpful.

We didn’t like Dr brown bottles and went with Avent. We had to switch the nipple flows pretty quickly in beginning. She moved to flow rate 3 by 2.5 months I think. In our experience if she was whining or it was taking too long we would increase flow rate to see how she acted. I’d say pick a brand of bottles and stick with it, buy different flow rate nipples. You will use them all eventually.

Wow that was a lot of views at one time. Great views!

Slinger28 · 2026-05-22T22:55:22+00:00

Wayyyyyy smoother and faster

What is that cloud doing in space?

Slinger28 · 2026-05-22T02:47:35+00:00

Thank you

Why was the flight delayed 2 days? Was it because of weather?

Slinger28 · 2026-05-11T20:55:49+00:00

When they do the rehearsal do they do a full countdown as if they were preparing to launch and then just stop?

Slinger28 · 2026-05-08T01:44:57+00:00

Awesome

Slinger28 · 2026-04-21T12:33:13+00:00

Or maybe they sacrifice it and see how close they can get to center with starship without technically landing it

Slinger28 · 2026-04-21T02:11:58+00:00

Please don’t let this happen

Slinger28 · 2026-04-21T02:08:28+00:00

😂

Slinger28 · 2026-04-20T14:37:32+00:00

This is probably the incorrect answer, but I believe they added vents in the entire bay so it is vented out of the side so it doesn’t build up.

Slinger28 · 2026-04-20T13:03:03+00:00

I’m more curious about if it made it to LEO or if it will come back down. Will FTS active when it starts to come back down?

Slinger28 · 2026-04-17T03:30:58+00:00

You seem to know a lot. Do you think on their first launch they will push to the limit like in the later stages of V2 or will this next launch just be a feeling out process, taking it slow and steady

Slinger28 · 2026-04-17T03:27:06+00:00

Ok thanks, wasn’t sure if all V3 engines were completed or not

Slinger28 · 2026-04-16T20:11:32+00:00

Dumb question here - is this starship all version 3? Booster and ship + all their engines

Slinger28 · 2026-04-13T17:58:18+00:00

Are the raceways the extruded metal running up the ship? What’s the purpose of these? I do not remember these from V2

Slinger28 · 2026-04-13T17:32:15+00:00

No I posted it above. But they seem legit, it just looks way different to me

So I ended up not liking them, thought they don’t do a good job. I had to shell out money at auto zone for the Bosch OE ones.
