This week at Starbase Ship 29 comes to life and breathes fire for the first time, Booster 4 meets its demise, and construction continues in all corners of Starbase, while over at Cape Canaveral, to everyone's surprise, demolition begins on the legs for the yet-to-be-completed Starship launch mount at LC-39A, as SpaceX's Falcon 9 launch complexes and marine support assets are as busy as ever with a pair of Starlink launches.

Thanks for watching this week's LabPadre Update!

    You folks do an absolutely brilliant job on these recaps. Love them. Keep 'em coming!
  • @julianfp1952
    Ah, so close. Ship 29 almost managed to roll-out from the build site, do its static fire tests, and back to the build site all within a single LabPadre weekly update episode. I’m sure some future ship will manage to reach that milestone.
  • @tomhansen45
    Great descriptive commentary. Fun to follow along as they build.
  • @brendabolling3424

  • @thugmessiah
    Have they fixed the 2 point lifting jig from causing any damage to the heat tiles?
  • @teds8747
    I noticed google maps have been updated, more recent views, and even shows raptor roost/rocket ranch, and Lab Padre viewing area!.. You finally made it on the map! :)

    Would be so cool if the new office building had an upward angled observation level like NASA has at the Cape for launch control
  • @dgsantafedave1
    I wonder how many employee's work for SpaceX! How many contractors? How much equipment rentals? I is amazing to see this operation unfold in real time.
