[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

We just witnessed what looked to be an RVac pre-burner test! But it looks like even more heat tiles were damaged on the nose cone.

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

Today’s static fire attempt has been scrubbed. There is a road closure tomorrow, so the it is NET October 14.

And two white tanks were delivered to potentially fuel the Orbital Tank Farm as Booster 4 awaits lifting.

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

Daily Update: An RVac thrust ram
and one for the sea level Raptors has been delivered to the launch site, which will simulate thrust on Ship 20 during cryogenic proof tests. Also the QD-Arm extension was lifted and GSE-1's cryo shell has been sleeved.

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

Today Raptor Center 67 has been replaced with RC 64 on Booster 4 and an RVac has been moved back to the production site as Booster 5 is undergoing stacking. Proof testing on Ship 20 is expected on Monday.

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

New road closures have been posted, thus Booster 4 and Ship 20 testing are NET September 17th!
Learn more about the closures on https://t.co/LdZIpjN4LP or about the vehicles on our prototype page.

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

Booster 4 is now in the air and will be placed onto the Orbital Launch Mount soon!

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

As expected Booster 4 is now being rolled out to the launch site to undergo its testing campaign ahead of the first orbital starship launch.

Self-propelled modular transporters were rolled under B4 for a possible rollout tomorrow.

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

A Cryo shell is currently being rolled out and will soon be installed at the orbital tank farm.

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

Starship Ship 20 is now rolling down Highway 4 joined by a GSE tank and a cryo shell. Ship 20 will be stacked atop of Booster 4 completing a full Starship stack for the first time!

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

@DaliSoula Yes, but they might stack it anyway for fit checking, even before static fire / cryo proof…

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

Booster 4 has been lifted on top the orbital launch pad. It is currently being installed and maybe we’ll see a full stack Starship (B4 + S20) very, very soon! 🔥🚀

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

Booster 4 is now being lifted onto the orbital launch mount to perform additional fit checks.

[Flying Water Towers @flywatertowers]

Booster 4’s load spreader is being lifted, which is another indicator for a lift and installation of B4 on top the orbital launch pad today.
