We are true Tank Watchers - we watched them being built, watched them being installed, and now watch them being scrapped!
@dawnofclarity 9 днів тому
Love the gratuitous use of slo-mo at the start - really gives a feel for the ferocity of what the guys are doing.

How much time would be lost if StarBase was just one shift. We would be years behind. Thank you Team SpaceX

Wow, lots of hard work cutting up the tanks. Great job everyone. 😊
@gregsteele806 9 днів тому
Imagine being the people who had to install all that reinforcement for the last flight. Only to be told they now have to scrap everything.
@proesterchen 9 днів тому
Can't wait for v2, which hopefully will get closer to the initial goals in terms of launch cadence.
@iamaduckquack 9 днів тому
Starship V2 alongside Tower V2 should be the start of faster cadence. Fingers crossed.
@christopherpetersen342 9 днів тому
the amount of scrapping and rework (and work-in-process) is pretty stunning. still seeing 3 shifts up on lifts with safety harnesses this far along seems pretty crazy too. one would think stage 0 (or stage -1) would be farther along by now.
@knowledgeisgood9645 9 днів тому
They only have results from 3 flights to adjust to. It will take many more before they settle on something that works the way they want.

How often does a truck filled with scrap leave Starbase? It looks like they're scrapping stuff every week.
@knowledgeisgood9645 9 днів тому
You might even say every day. The cost of R&D.
@JohnSmith-kv1uo 9 днів тому
Because the damn base it getting bigger and bigger need room lol tanks are easy to remove and cheap to build
@artemkras 9 днів тому
Oh the times when we thought future GSE tanks would be just flightless Starships )
@tomasbenedictomaza 9 днів тому
Dios mío con lo que habrá costado fabricar y colocar esos tanque la verdad es que yo siempre pensé que estaban muy cerca de la plataforma orbital en caso de accidente o explosión de una Starship como casi sucedió en el primer vuelo sufriendo daños estructurales en fin perdiendo se aprende que el proyecto siga adelante y vealos pronto el cuarto lanzamiento este es el camino
@ryann6919 9 днів тому
Does anyone know if ALL of the vertical GSE tanks (just the big ones) are being scrapped or will some of them still be used?
@David-yo5ws 4 дні тому
The Tanks closest to the OLM are GSE-3 (LOX) GSE-6 (LOX) Water (H2O) Methane (CH4) The Marcus House Team believe the LOX and Water tanks will stay as extra storage. The Tanks closest to the road are GSE-5 (LOX) GSE-1 (LN2) GSE-2 (LN2) GSE-7 (CH4) The CH4 tanks will go. Not sure about the Nitrogen tanks. Keep an eye on the next few days.

@alancadorette3447 9 днів тому
with those towers gone, whatever was hitting them before is going to fly past and take out something else
@knowledgeisgood9645 9 днів тому
Except for IFT1 the things hitting them are shockwaves. They don't harm much that is not in their way.

It still is part of the research and development. Every time they see a problem they try to fix it. Then new ones are found. Until they no longer can find any.

@mac_uk5464 9 днів тому
Why have they scrapped the GSE inner tank, they could of used it as water storage for fire system. They will probably need to have some somewhere at buikd site for ship factory & office block?.
@David-yo5ws 4 дні тому
Yep, could have re-purposed it and put it next to the Fires Station.

@niri2506 9 днів тому
This is so insane 😅 To think we witnessed all of this being built from nothing and we have long reached the point where even big structures like the tanks or what we once considered the high bay are gone now 😂
@NOM-X 9 днів тому
Do they recycle their own metal?
@ghost307 9 днів тому
I'm sure they do whatever makes the most financial sense. The day it's cheaper to make their own LOX they'll stop buying it.
@HarryNicNicholas 9 днів тому
i do wish there were a better way to heat shield the craft, that tiling seems enormously labour intensive. spray it on? i dunno.
@knowledgeisgood9645 9 днів тому
They would have if it were possible - it's not. Large shields crack and cause large parts to be unprotected. Small tiles are labour intensive, but it is supposed to be done once (to be reused without too many problems). They also need to be cheap, easy to remove and that they can be mass-produced.

I had a girl fighting with me that torches were the wrong tool for the job. She wants a multi million dollar tool to cut the tanks instead.
@donscheid97 9 днів тому
This video made me realize NASA gets the very best no matter the cost, while Elon gets what works. Congress makes a show of talking about the annual budget but doesn't really care about it. How big is the deficit now?
@qwadratix 8 днів тому
Why do they call this thing a 'Starship'? It's pathetic, barely gets off the planet surface.
@Shootr69 9 днів тому
I thought some of the GSE tanks had vermiculite between inner and outer shells. No? Or if so, where the heck did it go???
