The pacing of these videos, and the language and vocabulary range of the construction activity is impeccable; please continue!

Nice video straight to the point cover all the work no endless talking.👍

The amount and speed of the design, engineering, specification, fabrication, construction, installation going on at these sites is simply amazing.

Your weekly update videos continue to astound me. It doesn't escape me that someone has to trawl through multiple hours of videos, from multiple cameras & to know (with some certainty) of what's going on & identify each 'discussion worthy' events, write a blurb about it, collate the videos and the blurbs into a script, edit the video, dub the script over the video, preview & post. Just the production levels of these 15 minute weekly updates is (to me) very impressive! 👍👌✌

for the reinforced concrete pour area, my vote is parking lot currently because we didn't see vapor barrier go down, so not a building and we don't see the electrical stub-outs for running power to each spot that would be needed for Tiny Homes or an RV Park.

Thank you, a great synopsis as always.

The pace of construction and expansion of the facilities is truly amazing. 🤯

Great video footage Chief & Lab Padre, Thank you!!!

Thanks for the ongoing updates Lewis and team. I'm amazed how you can keep up with all that's happening with SpaceX.

The best coverage of these sites on the internet. Thank you.

Thak you...I don't know about anyone else..but I prefer the type of update. Thanks again

Insane that not much more than what 6 years? THIS WAS A TENT ON A HILL!!!!

Concise status report as usual, professionally delivered. Takes me back to the great days of Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo. Serious business discussed seriously. Thank you 👍👍🚀🚀

A lot of this isn't rocket science, but it's impressive how much engineering and fabrication is advancing SpaceX toward the goal of Mars colonization. The pace of the building is impressive. It reminds me of when people in the US dared to do great things. The world is a meeker place now, but SpaceX is bucking the trend.

Great Rob Reorge!

A amazing work guys. Well done. Keep up the great news about this and the excellent quality products and services of workmanship ❤❤

SpaceX is the Henry Ford of our time.

How can anything resist that blow torch! What a monster! The shockwaves alone are a killer! I dream to see a multistage version with this booster as a first stage. Easy peasy to the Moon!

That new concrete pour is for the new "Space Pizza" building.

I CAN HARDLY WAIT FOR LAB PADRE VIDEOS. THEY ARE MY “GO-TO” FOR SPACEX ACTION, ESPECIALLY BOCA CHICA CONSTRUCTION. THE PACE IS JUST RIGHT AND THE LINGUISTICS ARE CRYSTAL CLEAR. IF I NEED TO STOP OR BACKUP TO LET MY BRAIN SPOOL, THATS EASY ENOUGH. KEEP ‘EM COMING PLEASE.

Good news about stage 0, it has much less weight restrictions than the rocket itself... Good to actually see the damage so they know where additional protection is needed.

Did you see the whole rocket wobble before liftoff of the Soyuz vehicle? The rusty towers are bad enough but a stack like that wagging around is not my ride. Thanks, Lab.

Always the best SpaceX update. Thanks.

Another brilliant synopsis. Thank you.

Excellent work as usual! All week condensed into less than 14 minutes, my time well worth spent!

Thank you Lab,Chief, and staff .. another amazing update, well done..!! 🚀🏗️🚀

Brilliant update. Thanks Lab!

Excellent report- As usual!

Good job you roll right along. Thanks

Great to see things moving so quickly... thanks for your continued coverage!

That new pad at the old solar farm: no plumbing or conduit in the pad, so I'd expect a large warehouse.

Thanks for the updates!

Star 🌟 factory rocks. We look forward to seeing you soon K 💞🗽🫂💋🤴🤗🔱😇🏦💲

🎉NASA and 🌟Labs make n cook up the best shit. Y'all rock hard

Thanks Padre

Great update as usual! Thank you for everything.

Appreciate the updates

Thanks as always.

Very nicely done. Great images.

Best weekly narrated review by far!! thx LAB

Great job guys! Keep it up.

Thanks for presenting all this information is such a straightforward and concise method! 😀👍

SpaceX may need two super heavy quick disconnects. One to disconnect and vault itself like 5 seconds BEFORE they start the engines, and a smaller quicker super heavy disconnect to disconnect and hide shortly AFTER starting the super heavy engines.

Thanks, another good summary, much appreciated

Awesome update

Another great update lab 👍

Serious update.

PARKING SPACES FOR THE OFFICE WORKERS AND NICE LITTLE STUDIO APARTMENTS ❤❤

Thanks Lewis.

The QD arm probability could use a good dose of water or an inhert gas to help keep it cool !

Great segment. Gee but things happen quickly at SpaceX.

Thanks!

Interesting pix ; Appears the "damage" you described is all cosmetic and easily/readily 'fixed' !

With so many boosters at flight 19, what are procedures for certifying for more than 20 flights? Is FAA part of the process? TIA

A new tank farm EVERY launch!

QUESTION. does anyone know how long it takes a ship/booster, to get from the highbay to the launch site?? how fast do those things move??

This power is including my country 🇪🇹?

when does the comment section think ift4? my guess: star wars day

I wonder if they'll ever pursue a flame divert trench? That would solve a lot of problems.

Now add a payload and watch how much more thrust/damage will happen

4 items will screw up the test stand every time. 1.) Thermal Energy 2.) Compressive Energy 3.) Corrosion 4.) Engineers

I hope they start armoring the launch mount with sheets of tesla's martenized stainless steel.

it for a new gym?

While I enjoy these weekly updates, you shouldn't deceive with the video screen capture making it sound like the damage is insurmountable. It's like click bait videos.

Imagine the $ burn rate at Starbase. Wow!!!

I'm sure I saw somewhere it was championed that concrete was the most significant invention of modern civilisation, looking at construction works like this it's hard to disagree.

They've got to do one heck of a lot better than that. Those are like, literally on the order of ~10,000 MPH winds generated by those 33 Raptor engines, and pummeling Stage 0. There can be absolutely no exposed hoses, wires or lines of any type on the OLM, or they will be destroyed.

I don´t get it. Untill now, all 33 raptor rockets was ignited at same time during the launch of all 3 IFT. Why SpaceX do not fix it for the 3 IFT? It will be fix to the 4th???

It's fascinating to see how science fact can overtake the perceptions that science fiction once had: Remember how movies and tv portrayed rockets landing? All slow and steady until touchdown? Reality is that they streak earthward at an incredible pace and then at the very final few hundred meters or so, fire their engines and slow rapidly to a "gentle" touchdown. Of course, that's with no living beings on board. Wonder if it will change when people are on board...

❤❤❤❤ I could listen to Elon talk about work all day long if I was his by his side I would never b bored he could talk to me for ever about anything I love his voice ❤

Very bad placement of the I-beam 🤨 Should have jointed on top of the upright 😠

New thumbnail? Nice! I agree with the other guy, previous one was approaching clickbait territory. Not that you should care, but from my perspective it's always sad to see channels going that direction.

👍👍👍🇮🇳

Lol

Don’t get click baity like that wai flog

Emergency!!! Baffles will not work to prevent the slushing problem, because the tanks of the starship system are too large. That is the only reason why the starship will explode every time. The solution: The tanks of Starship and Superheavy need 2 disk valves, expanding the diameter of each tank. One of the disks, the one on top, rotates above the contiguous disk to close the overlaping holes on the surface of the disks; to reduce the Size of the tank by dividing it, before any rotation or acceleration of the rocket. This will prevent slushings and protect the plumbing, if located 10% above the bottom section of each tank. Large telescopic pistons can be attached below the bottom of disk valves to control the fuel pressure as the piston expands into the fuel tank. I have built a model that works perfectly. The second disk valve can be located 10% below the front of the tank, to also protect the front of the tanks from the slushing forces. The gridfins are too flat and too small to be effective enough and will not be able to control the booster. Why is Elon not using four pins instead of three to secure each heat shield tyle? Four anchor points provide far more stability to secure a tyle, not three.What is more important than securing the heat shield? Four anchor points would eliminate the problems of tyles falling off the ship every time there is an engine ignition. Please get this message to Elon. Thank you. Also, Spacex needs 3 actuators to move the payload bay doors correctly, not two. They have only two now, one at each end of the payload bay. They need one at the center position. Three will guarantee that there will always be enough support to open and close the doors, even if one of the three fails. I know the spacex engineers can see these problems. It is like ignoring the elephant in the room. Musk needs to hire people who can be trusted and who will not continue accepting bribes from Jeff Bozo to sabotage spacex.
