1
We're going to get back in the swing of things with some Starbase summaries in this episode.
2
Seeing the cutie arm coming off of pad one, that's the ship cutie.
3
This weird nose cone has been making the rounds.
4
Making the cones.
5
I don't know the right way to say that.
6
But it's got an odd seam down the side of it.
7
We'll talk a little bit more about that in the video.
8
And we've actually got some behind the scenes shots of Dan rewiring a camera.
9
and some other stuff that we've been doing before
10
and after flight 13 after out there at starbase but It's a starbase summary.
11
My name is John talk to you down in the comments
12
Let's start it off with this crane getting hooked up to
13
that ship quick desk connect arm now The front part of it was already removed
14
and we've been seeing them do a lot of work on this But again, this is over at pad one Right, so we'll see watch the watch the arm itself.
15
You see the strings the the the leaders tighten up
16
and then we see it sort of take the load
17
and you see some cutting happening did you see it shift a little bit there like look rewind it
18
if you didn't see that but they make those cuts you see some sparks
19
and you see the whole thing shift just a little bit
20
so that whole QD arm coming off there's a wider shot over from the highway site taking it down
21
but again pad 2's on your left there you can see
22
that OLM the second OLM and then pad 2 was on the right in that shot
23
So why would I just say no pad 2 was on
24
the left pad 1 was on the right is the correct way to say
25
that we just switch shots before I was done talking It happens a lot
26
So putting this down on the ground clearly going to be
27
doing some rework They've got a lot of lessons on
28
that pad to ship quick disconnect arm Are they gonna leave
29
it here are they gonna roll it back to work on it?
30
I guess we'll see but coming all the way off the tower so that they can perform You know something?
31
I'm going to say that it's more upgrades than just maintenance.
32
They're going to get this thing in line with Pad 2.
33
Because remember, with the whole rapidly reiteratable...
34
Rapidly what?
35
Whatever.
36
The rapid iteration that they do, they don't just make one design and then make 50 of them for parts like this, for the towers and stuff.
37
At some point, they're going to need to standardize these things, right?
38
You're not going to want 40 different tower designs with 50 different arm designs.
39
I don't know how that would work, but I guess the chopsticks have two arms each.
40
So there's technically three arms in each tower. So the math works.
41
But I imagine they're going to be bringing these things in line
42
so you don't have a bunch of different designs out there in the wild.
43
As much as they could.
44
I mean, the tower from Pad 1 is not being completely brought down, right?
45
Knock on wood.
46
But trying to get these things a little bit lined out so there's some consistency, sharing parts, sharing designs, sharing maintenance, all that sort of stuff.
47
Other things happening over at Pad 1 you can see that big crane and that gantry there as well.
48
The service structure, I guess I called it the gantry, the service structure.
49
Got some crane pieces on the ground as well But they have been working on getting that service structure framework again.
50
It says service structure.
51
It's really
52
The side of the launch mount remember the launch mount is the big box looking thing
53
and it's got the circle in the middle It has a sign on it says insert rocket here
54
Right and this is the part that is to the side of
55
that sort of the trapezoidal bunker shape And this carries all the piping, consumables, framework, blah, blah, blah.
56
It does not include the actual launch mount.
57
So we'll expect...
58
Oh, look at that!
59
What is the reflection?
60
This has to be a morning shot, because the reflection...
61
The sun would be rising...
62
Yeah, there you go.
63
The sun is to the left.
64
And the sun rising behind that camera was right there on the office building.
65
That's interesting that this time of year, that's set up just right.
66
But anyways, I'm here looking at the sun angles.
67
There you can see a boom lift being lowered down into the trench over at Pad 2.
68
They've been working on these upgrades, or upgrades, I guess, reconditioning.
69
I don't actually know what the right term to use is.
70
But after Flight 13, we've been seeing them doing a lot of work around Pad 2.
71
You can see top of the OLM booster quick disconnects are still a little scuffed.
72
I guess that actually looks like a surveying instrument.
73
Do you see that little tripod?
74
I know it's not a deployable camera.
75
It's not one of our cameras, but that really does look like a surveying instrument.
76
We're deep in discussion about this.
77
The rocket goes up.
78
I don't know what they were actually saying there.
79
I wonder if they're checking that the amount is still true.
80
Is it still level?
81
Did things get knocked out of whack?
82
I wonder exactly what they're looking at there.
83
That's actually super interesting.
84
That's a really good catch there.
85
here we've got a lift going up the side of the
86
tower it's got this sort of just after golden hour time
87
here caesar was out there catching stuff got some lights
88
but you still got the sky a little bit lit up some lifts working underneath the uh pad there in
89
that previous shot this is sort of a morning sort of thing we've got some grass waving in there there's
90
that asu still not online yet but largely constructed most of the main elements of that construction are in place.
91
What have we here?
92
That looks like a valve.
93
Either they're going to install mailboxes for people getting mail out at the ASU, or that is like a valve structure, like a little roof that goes over some sort of control boards,
94
or something like that.
95
It's curious that that wouldn't be inside.
96
So, okay, it's going up to the roof.
97
Those almost look like bottle straps, but that wouldn't make any sense.
98
Huh.
99
I wonder what y'all think that thing is?
100
I'm curious, going up on top of the ICU.
101
So as promised, here are some behind-the-scenes shots.
102
There is Mr. Dan working on Dune.
103
I love how we still have the litter carry arms on
104
that because it's way easier to carry with those arms on it.
105
But out there maintaining the cameras, we had to rewire some of this stuff.
106
We're always trying to keep things going, especially in this dome-up configuration.
107
Wow, this high-definition shot of Dan in the daily here.
108
Looking very dapper, Dan.
109
Tightening down the M6 bolts there with great precision.
110
That's going to be going out to north.
111
Oh, nice.
112
We've got the dog with us as well.
113
Yes!
114
It says bark. Does that?
115
It's a NASA?
116
Bark at the moon.
117
Okay.
118
Over at the North Beach site, that camera that's hanging down at the very top.
119
For flight, we actually flip that camera over.
120
don't tell the warranty company.
121
It looks like it's flipped over right now because it's, I mean, it's got bird poop on it, right?
122
But we don't leave it that way long periods.
123
The camera's not designed to be weatherproof in a dome-up orientation.
124
So right before flight, we flip it dome up.
125
That allows us to get the tracking shots and look up above the horizon, right?
126
Then after flight, we go out there, we put the ladder on the tower.
127
You see the braces on the tower there, right?
128
It's got a huge base plate, and those braces have these huge ground stakes drilled into the ground there.
129
But we flip that camera dome down for the longer term sort of stuff.
130
That's Beach 3 up on top of the tower.
131
Got a hair in there and a little bit of, you know, wood out in the ocean.
132
In this area right near Beach 3, it's actually an old resort, the Del Mar Resort.
133
And there is the remains, the pilings of a dance hall there.
134
And depending on how much sand there is, you can see the pilings or not see the pilings.
135
Don't hit them with your vehicle.
136
They will not give your tire a bad or a good day.
137
It'll be a bad day for your tire.
138
So here on this, right, this is this flanged nose cone.
139
You see the weird sort of seam down the side of it.
140
It's rolled into Mega Bay 2, which is, of course, where all the shipwork happens.
141
See, there's not heat tiles or anything, or not a lot of them.
142
There's a couple of them there, right?
143
But what are they doing with this?
144
Is this some sort of test jig?
145
Are they working on ideas for a nose cone that can open, like the Chomper nose cone?
146
It's really interesting.
147
We're going to see where that thing rolls out.
148
And of course on Starbase Live 24-7 we will keep up with where that thing ends up.
149
Progress on the Giga Bay over here.
150
It's been going up.
151
Got a little pause because of the flight that was in there.
152
But the crane's not actively craning anything right now.
153
It just continues to grow up out there next to the Star Factory.
154
You see all the stations?
155
Do you see the booster stations in there?
156
Do you see how many boosters they can work on in between each one of those things?
157
There's sort of work platforms with booster workstations.
158
So that is going to be nuts, those massive doors we have on it.
159
And I hope that at some point we're able to look in there, and it's nighttime, and it's all lit up, and you just see rows of boosters being worked on.
160
It's like booster freaking 40 through 82 or something in there.
161
I don't think it's going to hold at 42 boosters.
162
Got some pipes.
163
What if those are drain pipes?
164
They got a flange on one end?
165
I really wonder if that pipe is like for drainage off the roof or something.
166
You're not piping any mass quantities of consumables around in there.
167
That's not a thing.
168
I'm curious.
169
I bet you it's something like super mundane, like water trains.
170
Got a quick correction on the camera angle there, but the driver of the SPMT riding by in style on the little...
171
It looks like you could put an artillery piece on the...
172
The offset driver makes me think of like a military vehicle or something.
173
Here, looking over at Massey's, that's the 39.1 test tank.
174
It is moving from left to right because it's coming back was leaving Massey's after some tests occurred on it.
175
Rolling up Highway 4 here, those power lines there are coming sort of towards the production side.
176
Got a patchwork of tiles over there, working on some different ways to layout, to attach the tiles, I guess,
177
would be my guess, to see how they stick during different parts of the vehicle test, like when it's cryo inside, it gets cold, How do things expand, contract?
178
How do they work whenever you go through that testing?
179
That hose hanging off the side.
180
I wonder if that hose is, like, I'm surprised it's not secured.
181
You've seen what happens to unsecured hoses around Starbase.
182
But that one looks like it's hanging in there, quite literally.
183
Nighttime roll, causing a little bit of a traffic jam.
184
Look at the most of the vehicles in there are propellant trucks.
185
They're big cryotankers.
186
You can see all the round backs of the trucks.
187
They're all going to pass and go over to the launch site, I guess topping off the launch site after that, Flight 13.
188
Got a little bit of a silhouette show, shadow show there for a minute, but there is the Starbase summary.
189
Hey, getting back into it, like I said, after Flight 13, massive thanks to all the crew that was out there for Flight 13, catching all that footage.
190
If you haven't seen the other footage where we just had, like, the super cut of slow motion and telescope and behind-the-sheen shots, make sure you see that.
191
It was the shots.
192
The angles you didn't see was the name of the video, probably a couple under this one.
193
But that'll do this one for Starbase summary.
194
Again, see you down in the comments.
195
Think I missed something?
196
Have an idea about how something's going to work?
197
Let me know, because I read them all, and I will see you nerds later.
198
Thanks for watching.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
