I’m thinking the new door to the star factory is actually for unloading of parts and / or an alternative door to transport sections over to the mega bay. It may be a drive through arrangement.
These videos continue to be very good info. One point, if I may, could you put a north arrow on your maps so that we know the directions when you narrate the video?? Thanks
i must admit -- i dont understand why test tanks always seem to be so Late at masseys -- i mean didnt thay have time to do catching stress tests a year ago -- or arent they expecting catch from v1 test articles
If you fly over the border (with permission) can you fly at a lower altitude when over Mexico? Also, what are the rules for flying a drone in Mexico? It'd be great to get drone views of test firing's at Massey's. Btw, I still hate calling it Massey's, it's such a misnomer. It's the ship testing site now. Or, the Ship Testing Site.
Always great recaps, just wish you would slow down a touch, you talk very quickly and move on quick, there's so much to take in. I usually have to slow the video to x0.75 speed
It maybe the lighting.,but The item about to go into the can crusher looks like it’s made from titanium not stainless steel. This would make a lot of sense to test for an ultimate change from stainless steel to titanium as spacex would get a structural mass reduction of about forty percent. It seems logical to prototype in steel because of the cost and then transition over to titanium and solve all the overweight issues in one go and possibly increase to mass to orbit to 350 tons.
@@alvianchoiriapriliansyah9882 Sadly somehow it must be reduced. the landing mass must come down by a huge margin it’s just not optional. Slowing the present mass 113,000 kilos is thermal suicide. It could possibly get down to say 85,000 kilos by using titainium and lighter weight alloys in much of the structure of the design while still keeping the stainless steel tanks which are great for the cryogenic fuels It may be possible to get the landing weight down to 85,000 kilos or less moving at 25,000 kilometres an hour having to get to a few metres per hour the compression heating effect would be dramatically reduced allowing the project to be put project back on track
Thanks lol, I've done these updates every week for the past 6 months, I actually alter how I would normally pronounce some words to allow for the American audience. It's a Scottish accent by the way. #teamspace
