Welcome to my Twitter, my name is Boca Bingo and I do graphical stuff with rockets! For example I label pictures from Starbase, make informational pictures, or even various fun tournaments! If that's the sort of stuff you like to see, feel free to support me and hit a follow! :)
Booster 9 + Starship 25 IFT-2 Infographic!
This time I took my time to add accurate details on both the booster and the ship. The only thing that might not be accurate are the stats, as I tried to use some back channels to get newer info, but failed, so most of the stats
I present to you...
The IFT-3 Infographic!
Notes:
1) Burn time for S28 is the SES to SECO time
2) Burn time for B10 is from engine ignition to MECO (Let's ignore those three that keep firing :3 )
3) B10 Stats include the Interstage height and weight
The picture below is a
Here's a labeled map of Starship 24, showing all the little details and what is where.

SN15 Bingo! Where do you think it will land?
And yes, while there is a chance it will land off the pad, I'd figure with so many SN15 and Raptor upgrades it will most likely land on the pad.
Thanks a lot to

for providing the picture! <3
The Not-So-Official bingo for Starship Integrated Flight Test is here!
In the comments below, there will be a link to a Google Form where you can choose where the Starship flight fails or if it doesn't.

Bingo results! As you can see, SN11 is kinda everything, so you get a win, and YOU get a win! Everyone gets a win today!
Let's hope SN15 Bingo will end up better, and with more people voting :)
Many thanks to

Here is the current map of all the landing attempts, some more successful than the others! SN9 was a tough nut to crack, as we didn't have a proper good zoomed in view of the landing. SN9 was turning quite a lot!
Once again thanks to
@RGVaerialphotos
for lending me his photos!
Well well well, it's that time of the year again. It's bingo time! Here's one for the Starship presentation that's meant to happen next week.
Feel free to share around! I want to see people's predictions :D

Landing results! As you can see, it landed in the C7 tile, sadly nobody has guessed it on any of the platforms. And if there will be those who thought it was B7, nobody guessed that one either :D

So I was avoiding tweeting this for the past 2 weeks, but with the Orbital Attempt really closing in on July/August, I have a sort of request from everyone. I have always wanted to see a rocket launch live, which is kinda hard for somebody who lives in land locked country... 1/X
And now the grand finale!

for 1st and 2nd place!
Space Shuttle vs Starship!
Remember, this poll is based on JUST the aesthetic LOOK of the rockets! Reusability, launch history, politics do not matter in this tournament!
I present you the "2nd FAA Hearing Bingo"
Feel free to download it and use it when listening to the hearing that is to happen tonight. I'd like to see the final tally!
I'd like to thank everyone who suggested their ideas for the bingo!
VOTE TIME!
Which way of showing Starship in the infographic would you like?
Option 1 = Have it covered partially to make it look sleek
Option 2 = Have both versions of Starship visible to make all the details visible
VOTE IN THE TWEET BELOW
It appears this poll has been attacked by over 1500 bots, skewing the results. As a result, I have to count the results before the bot attack, which was sligthly in favor of Shuttle.
Thanks to the botter, Starship lost it's chance of winning. (Image taken by another user)
I can finally unveil artwork I had commissioned in February!
It features Starship about to start it's landing sequence. There's also my OC hanging from the rocket skirt.
The artist went ham on the background :D

Thanks to

When you try your best, but you don't succeeed...
Thanks

For the pic! Looks like
@RGVaerialphotos
has a competition.
For those more knowledgable in photography than me, what kind of lens would you need to shoot RGV-quality level pics from ISS?
Would people be interested in "cards" about various things that happen during testing and outside of it? I made several cards for somebody, but they weren't interested. I figured I might give them to the public. Do you have any suggestions about what those cards would be about?
It was brought to my attention that an instagram account called __spacex._ has uploaded the picture without linking me or the artist as the source. Any idea what should I do with it?
Bad news, my HDD storage which had all of my graphics work and assets on it has died after 6 years of honorable service. I have sent it to a data recovery company, and they plan on charging me around 400-700$ for the data salvage.
Any monetary help for it will be welcome!

Here's the first informational card for one of the first rockets, V-2! In the comments you can also find a link to an EasyZoom picture where you can zoom in even further!
Here is the Vanguard rocket info card! I made the card bigger, so if you open it a new window, it should be nicely readable.
As always feedback is appreciated!
If you want the best zoom, I left an EasyZoom link to the card in the comments below!

...in the middle of the Europe. And with SpaceX being the reason I got into the space community in the first place, I would love to go see the Starship SN20 launch live to Boca Chica. But with SpaceX being so quick, I am not very certain I can save enough cash in time... 2/xx

it holds the booster to the ground. At T-0 all the engines on superheavy ignite, and throttle up to full power (that takes a second or two). Once the engines are at full power, the flight computer runs a test on the gimbals to make sure they are working (move the engines 1/2

(move the engines in all directions). If the computer doesnt detect any issues (with the gimbals or the engines), the flight computer tells that clamp to release the booster. And liftoff occurs (usually this process takes around 3-5 seconds, so actual liftoff is at T+4ish)
My new video is up! We have
