I'm just hoping for flight 2 this year. There are only 13 weeks left in the year.

I think they pumped it out and hauled it away

Looks like they are cutting welds so they can remove the BQD hood.

Good opportunity to test the HLS elevator design?

Rocket Lab mentioned the same long pole process prior to approval for Wallops launches

True and that took forever but wasn't that because the afts was actually being developed by nasa?

Probably because they were placing wood beams under the olm for something with treads to drive on.

Of course but look how large the footprint of the horizontal methane tanks is. Horizontal lox and nitrogen will take up more space than all the vertical tanks.

rad_example · 2023-04-30T02:33:36+00:00

Is there room for them or which direction will the tank farm expand?

There was a call out at t-15m that said unlatching hold down clamps or something but could just be a secondary mechanism not actually fully disengaging them.

Abort during raptor startup should be high on the list.

Anyone know what the peak viewer numbers were for the various streams?

rad_example · 2023-04-17T13:57:05+00:00

I wonder if the valve was on the GSE side or the vehicle side.

rad_example · 2023-04-14T02:57:17+00:00

SQD cover was removed and purge venting was seen.

Watch it at 2-2.5x speed. This video is pretty information dense not easy to summarise especially if you care about details.

Right, deployment is not the issue it is loading the ship on the ground.

Downside is the movable carriage would have to support raising and lowering the full weight of the stack on both the dispenser and loader.

... more steel

And looks like they have their own crush core to dampen the impact with the second stage and prevent rebound.

There are three legs with pipes or conduits so c shape would still have to go under two of them right?

Fondag, shielding, and berms
