• May 30th cryo delivery tally. (ViX)
• Launch site: Overnight, a fit check is performed on the booster quick disconnect hood at Pad B. (NSF, ViX 1, ViX 2)
• Pad B booster quick disconnect hood is reinstalled. (ViX)
• Pad B chopsticks are lowered to the bottom stop. (ViX)
• A LOX pump is lifted into position #2 at the pump farm, likely just a test fit. (ViX)
• Build site: A peek at S38 in Megabay 2. (Hardcore Electric 1, Hardcore Electric 2)

Flight 9:

• SpaceX post videos and photos of hotstaging and coast phase.

Other:

• Version 3 Starlink satellites to start launching on Starship in "6 to 9 months". (Elon Time)
