Here's the "if everything goes right" plan for @NASASpaceflight streams around Starship Flight 15.

Things may change if the T-0 slips substantially or the ship doesn't make it home, but this is what we're aiming for.

If driving to SpaceX, be extremely careful on Boca Chica Blvd right before crossing into the newer stretch of highway 4 - massive crater in the road after the long trail of potholes. 😬

@SpaceX @michaelbaylor Oh now it’s getting real!

Super Heavy moved to the launch pad at Starbase. Booster 22 is the first Super Heavy V3 booster planned to return to the launch site for catch and was used for final catch testing upon arrival, including a suspended squeeze test at catch height
