Huh, so it does.

Fair point, that does seem a bit odd…

I’m not sure this is a huge deal, but I think SpaceX’s “move fast and break things” mentality might have come to bite them in the ass again…

Starbase activities (2024-09-17):

• Gisler posts Starfactory photos from the last night: Nosecone, doors.
• Starhopper outer layer is being removed. (cnunez (before), NSF 1, NSF 2, NSF 3, Marcus House, Gisler, Ramirez)
• RGV Aerial post a recent flyover photo of launch site.

Other:

• Zack and ChromeKiwi further speculate on new launch mount designs. (Golden, Killip 1, Killip 2)
• Ryan Hansen speculates on whether S24 ignited its engines (IFT-1).
• mcrs987 notes that the vessel Hos Ridgewind might be attempting to recover portions of Booster 11 (IFT-4). (mcrs987 1, mcrs987 2, mcrs987 3, mcrs987 4, mcrs987 5, mcrs987 6, mcrs987 7)

Deployment of Galileo L13 confirmed

Well done on the double meaning of “poach” :)

Awesome! Thanks, Dude! Keep us posted!

Do let us know when we can donate as well. While I appreciate your continued generosity, I would feel more confident in the long-term future of the server if the financial costs were decentralized a bit. It would be nice to know that the future costs are covered for the next x months/years.

Stage 1 landing confirmed!

MECO, stage separation, M-vac ignition, and fairing separation.

Liftoff!

The booster reentry trajectory will result in higher heating and dynamic pressure on the booster than many of our historical landings. Although the reentry conditions are on the higher end of past missions, they are still acceptable. This landing attempt will test the bounds of recovery, giving us valuable data on the design of the vehicle in these elevated entry conditions. This in turn will help us innovate on future vehicle designs to make our vehicles more robust and rapidly reusable while expanding into more challenging reentry conditions

Propellant load is underway for today’s Falcon 9 launch of the Galileo L13 mission from pad 40 in Florida. Weather is currently 60% favorable for liftoff

Targeting a Falcon 9 launch of the European Commission’s Galileo L13 mission from Florida later today. Teams are keeping an eye on recovery weather

The one on Disney Plus.

Ah, pity, I believe those are the special editions, with the “jarring and stupid” CGI.

she has a bluray set with the original cuts

To my knowledge, the original cuts have never been released on bluray, so unless she burned them herself I find this somewhat unlikely. The highest quality unaltered Original Trilogy official release is DVD or LaserDisc.

For higher quality versions, you want to search for “Harmy despecialized” or “4k77”. Good luck, let me know if you have any questions! :)

Too small, or too remote?

Awesome! Which version?

Generative Barbecue-trained Transformers?

Starbase activities (2024-09-16):

• Pad A: Chopsticks work continues. Hard stops are reinstalled (Anderson/LabPadre). Bumpers are extended (Hammer).
• Pad B: CC8800-1 crane reconfiguration continues. (Gisler)
• Build site: New entrance to Starfactory looks mostly completed. Roof work is coming along on the passage between Starfactory and offices. (Gisler 1, Gisler 2)
• Massey’s: S31 cryo testing continues, still no static fire.
• Road delays for Sep 17th and 18th appear to have been cancelled.

there is another one that don’t dead open inside (basically the orders of the words is different), but I don’t remember the name
