Concept warriors are the most annoying of people sometimes you can be talking about a real world thing of today or something that actually happened and they'll come in like "no you see this obscure concept that was actually never gonna happen in any reasonable reality was.

No twitter user, a concept from the 1960's - 90s that was nothing more than a paper print with predicted numbers does not mean it would be better than anything made today. believing shit like that no questions asked is like believing a ULA graphic is being honest lol.

I mean. cmon!
Just speculation. but the more i think about it the more i wanna believe the Door abort of flight 9 was due to Atitude control slipping again, a semi accurate timeline IMO is:. SECO occurs and ship tumbles -> T+13 minutes Ship is able to slow the tumble to a near hault -> for.

Booster 14 failed due to higher than acceptable loads on its Transfer tube during the high angle of attack descent test, B16 and 15-2 will fly with a lower angle of attack to prevent this.

Ship 35 succumbed to a fuel leak over pressuring the Nosecone caused by a diffuser having a "visible failure on its canister" which led to needed venting of the nose causing attitude errors which where nullified successfully until the temperator on sensors dropped causing a ful.

Remember there was a time where a lot of people were 100% sure Pad B would be mobile and interchangeable? Now its got the fattest welds to the legs ive ever seen lol.Looking back there was no shot it was gonna be a mobile Pad, the second the service structure started going up.

Oh no!
Conibio Global "environments" will be conducting a maritime protest during the launch of @SpaceX Flight 10. They will form a flotilla in the Gulf of America off of Playa Bagdad and on the beach, launching red flares during the flight window. Hopefully they pick up some garbage.

"Did you know SpaceX's Super heavy booster use to have 33 engines arranged 18 degrees offset from the current Booster?".*4 million likes*.
Just think of the engagement bait you could make from this change in a year or two from now!. "Did you know Space X's super heavy booster used to be caught by small pins on the side of the rocket instead of the gridfins?"

The New Superheavy catch pin is the exact same as the ships! however its notably longer, meaning its compatible with Pad A's current landing rail on the arms. :) dual catch missions can still go ahead even without Pad A in operation or 12 hour on orbit time!

Also confirmation that Block 3 ship is th same height as Block 2, both 21 rings sections tall.
They’ll also be used for vehicle lift and catch, made possible by a new catch point addition and a lower positioning on the booster to align with the tower catch arms. Moving lower reduces the heat they receive from Starship’s engines at hot-staging and places the fin shaft,

So they are intergrating the catch pins into the gridfins!! i have been wondering for ages why the pins seem to "clip" through the fins on renders and that explains it!.

the website operators know about the communities choice of naming! look at that difference in language!.pretty cool since SpaceX choosing "chill and spin" over Spin prime was eh
