    What can I say, other than what I've said many times before, "Jack, you are NASAspaceflight's most invigorating and exciting host for Starbase news". Keep these great updates coming... Thank you!

    We should start calling the version 3 Starship "the limousine model"

    B11 static firing test: 33 engines, 50% throttle (estimated), LOX tank 100% filled, LCH4 tank ~20% filled (estimated), 8 sec testing duration. Engine thrust 4125t (metric tons). B11 wet mass at T=0 sec (engine start): 4029t. Upward force on the engine hold down clamps at T=0: 96t. Upward force on the engine hold down clamps at T+8 sec (end of test): 188t. Ocean platforms: When the two oil drilling platforms were sold last year, SpaceX indicated that an improved platform design for Starship had been created.

    Jack, you are the ultimate contentmeister. Thank you for these information packed presentations.
  • Perhaps they need to be using a tile vibration tool to set the tiles in the adhesive. These are used by the guys who tile your shower to remove air pockets from behind the tile.
