Hello, we are TheSpaceXFans and welcome to TheSpaceXShow,
the place where you can stay up to date with everything SpaceX.
We can hopefully expect the 2nd launch of this year as soon as tomorrow. The OneWeb 16 mission
is currently scheduled for tomorrow, Monday 9th at 4:55am UTC or today, Sunday 8th at 11:55pm
EST. We can also hopefully expect another launch the following day. The Starlink 2-4 mission is
currently scheduled for Tuesday 10th at 4:15am UTC or tomorrow, Monday 9th at 11:15pm EST. There is
another launch we could expect soon that I want to show in addition to those 2 launches. The Falcon
Heavy USSF-67 mission is currently scheduled for this coming week with Thursday 12th at 10:45pm
UTC or 5:45pm EST. SpaceX posted a Tweet with a couple of pictures of the Falcon Heavy rocket
being prepared in the hangar. I wanted to share this incredibly cool footage that SpaceX posted
on Twitter of an uninterrupted, sped up Falcon 9 launch and landing from the Transporter-6 mission.
There was a Tweet posted related to SpaceX’s droneship Of Course I Still Love You. It says
“High resolution satellite imagery reveals that SpaceX has made modifications to its west coast
droneship over the past month. The existing wings were removed and replaced with ones similar to
those on A Shortfall Of Gravitas.” There was an article posted about the Polaris Dawn crew
on their website. It says “The Polaris Dawn crew participated in a decompression sickness study to
characterize the risk of the planned Polaris Dawn decompression profile in the 20 Foot Chamber at
NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas.” Heading to Boca Chica, the Orbital Launch Mount
was seen being prepared for weight testing. After having done some load testing, the testing rig was
removed. Here’s a view of the berm extension at the launch site. The chopstick catching arms were
seen being tested. On Twitter somebody asked Musk about a possible end of January launch for the
first orbital Starship flight. He responded and said “We have a real shot at late February. March
launch attempt appears highly likely.” Starship 24 was lifted off of the Pad B test mount.
Ship 25 continues to be worked on in the High Bay. The methane tank for Super Heavy Booster
10 was seen being moved to the Mid Bay. Booster 7 has continued to be worked on in the Mega Bay
with rollout hopefully soon. SpaceX has a bunch of possible closures for this coming week. They have
a possible closure for tomorrow, Monday 9th, then Wednesday 11th, Thursday 12th and Friday 13th.
As always, I have to say thanks to both Nic Ansuini and Jack Beyer for being out there
filming the Boca Chica content. Also, thanks to the NASASpaceflight team working behind the
scenes on their videos, livestreams and other space content. That’s it for this episode of
