Starbase activities (2025-07-14):

• Jul 13th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• Massey's: A horizontal tank is loaded onto an SPMT and turned around.
• Build site: Work on Gigabay foundation continues. (Roger S / NSF)
• Launch site: Modifications to the Pad 1 launch mount continue. More propellant pipes and support frames are installed. (ViX, Starship Gazer, Starship Gazer 2)
• Conversion of the ship transport stand into ship static fire adapter continues. Side plates are added to direct fire downwards and reinforce the structure when propellant is loaded. (Starship Gazer, Killip)
• RGV Aerial post a close-up flyover photo of the Pad 2 launch mount.

McGregor:

• A pair of vertical tanks arrive for potential testing. The tanks bear similar scorch marks to the tanks removed from Massey's following the S36 anomaly. (NSF 1, NSF 2)

Flight 10:

• NET 3 weeks, Elon time.

Starbase activities (2025-07-13):

• Jul 12th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• Massey's: At the methane tank farm, the LR1300 crane rotates two vertical storage tanks and removes a smaller vertical tank. (ViX 1, ViX 2)
• Build site: The bridge crane in Megabay 2 appears to undergo some certification testing. (ViX)
• Launch site: At Pad 1, another large pipe is lifted into place, and then removed. (NSF 1, NSF 2)
• NSF thread on recent and upcoming modifications to the launch mount to support ship testing. (NSF 1, NSF 2, NSF 3, NSF 4, Killip)
• Killip posts an updated diagram of booster hold down linkages, based on parts spotted at Sanchez. This follows a thread from Apr 24th 1, Apr 24th 2, and Jun 28th.

Starbase activities (2025-07-12):

• Jul 11th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• Massey's: The new LR1300 crane removes two of the five vertical storage tanks in the methane tank farm. (NSF, ViX 1, ViX 2)
• Launch site: At Pad 1, some piping is installed, likely for the future ship quick disconnect system. (NSF 1, NSF 2, Anderson)
• Other: RGV Aerial weekly update livestream.

Flight 10:

• NET Aug 4th, per FCC filing. (FCC)

SECO, nominal orbit insertion.

Stage 1 landing confirmed!

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

No views of Stage 2 at the request of the customer.

Liftoff!

Hosted webcast has started. Tucker Spencer-Wallace (Mission Integration Engineer) and Zachary Luppen (Avionics Supply Chain Engineer) are hosting.

That would be great, but why would they? Most big creators have made their channel their business. How could they be convinced to switch?

Starbase activities (2025-07-11):

• Jul 10th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• Build site: Overnight, two more R-vacs are delivered. Megabay 2 should contain a full set of engines for S37, plus an extra R-vac. (ViX 1, ViX 2)
• Massey's: An LR1300 crane is delivered and assembled. (ViX 1, ViX 2, ViX 3)
• Launch site: At Pad 2, the top part of the LOX booster quick disconnect cover is lifted into place. (ViX)
• At Pad 1, modifications to the booster quick disconnect hood to support ship testing continue. (ViX 1, ViX 2, ViX 3, Priel, rocketjunkie94, Anderson, Golden)

Happy cake day!

I do not understand.

As long as he attacks first, he'll be fine, right?

Starbase activities (2025-07-10):

• Jul 9th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• Build site: Overnight, three engines arrive at Megabay 2, presumably for S37, bringing the total to two R-center and two R-vacuum Raptors. (LabPadre, ViX 1, ViX 2, NSF, Planatus666)
• Killip posts some speculative renders on the interior of the recently installed booster transfer tube / header tank. (Killip 1, Killip 2, Killip 3)
• Gisler posts a zoomed photo of a header tank in Starfactory.
• Launch site: At Pad A, a structure to support flexible hoses for ship propellant filling is installed via a hole cut in the back of the booster quick disconnect hood. (Anderson / NSF)
• Seagull.
• RGV conduct a flyover. (photos, video) (Edit: These are from Jul 4th)

Florida:

• Steel pieces are delivered for the flame trench at LC-39A. (Anderson / NSF)

Starbase activities (2025-07-09):

• Jul 8th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• Build site: Header tank is installed in B18, the first Block 3 booster. (SpaceX, Manley, Elon 1, Elon 2)
• Launch site: The methane pump that was installed the previous day receives its motor. (ViX)

Happy cake day!

Starbase activities (2025-07-08):

• Jul 7th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• Massey's: Clean up continues. Two vaporizers are toppled. (LabPadre)
• Build site: The first pile of the Gigabay foundation is placed. (LabPadre, ViX 1, ViX 2, Golden)
• The black LTR1220 crane lifts 6 legs into the front right side of Megabay 2, likely for construction of a new work stand. (ViX)
• Launch site: The LOX booster quick disconnect hood back plate is lifted into place at the Pad 2 ground support equipment bunker. (ViX)
• A pump is lifted into place at the methane section of the pump farm. (ViX)
• Cameron County approve the air separation plant across from Pad 1. (Anderson 1, Anderson 2, Cameron County)

Starbase activities (2025-07-07):

• Jul 6th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• July 6th addendum: RGV Aerial post a recent photo of clean up progress at Massey's. (RGV Aerial)
• Build site: A new design of a booster header tank moves from Starfactory to Megabay 1 and is raised to vertical. (NSF, LadPadre, ViX, Golden 1, Golden 2, Beyer)
• Launch site: A pump arrives at the LOX pump farm, is unwrapped and then covered, likely pending a crane lift. A blue wrapped motor is also visible on site. (ViX)
• The Tower 2 chopsticks are lowered, possibly to aid with cladding installation on the tower. (ViX)
• Work on the ship static fire adapter continues with the addition of pieces speculated to be R-vac bracing. (Starship Gazer)
• Pad 1 refurbishment continues. (Killip)
• Pad 2 flame trench work continues. (Killip / RGV Aerial)

Starbase activities (2025-07-06):

• Jul 5th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• Jul 5th addendum: More cladding is installed on Tower 2. (ViX)
• Launch site: The hold-down clamps have been removed from the Pad 1 launch mount. This suggests that the ship static fire stand will be integrated onto the hold down clamps after all, rather than attached to the top deck of the launch mount. (Golden 1, Golden 2)
• Build site: A ship quick disconnect plate is lifted out of Megabay 2. (NSF, ViX)
