For the first time ever we have a Ship catch Navwarning! You can see the abort area and nominal turn for catch. (All notices support launch on November 13)
NAVWARNING for Indian Ocean and NOTAM for Easter island (Chile). Both support November 13 launch date.

Road delay (I would say likely) for Booster 22's rollout to the launch site ahead of Flight 15. Hopefully this booster will come back after it is caught.

Imagine you subscribe to Zack because of this post. You dont know anything about rockets and then you randomly get Starship deep dives into your timeline😭 Considering this post got 1.7M views there's a high chance.
WOW! Another wet-weather masterclass from Max Verstappen at Interlagos! From P21 to P2, here is every overtake from today’s race 🔥

Ship 40 is in the GIGAbey. Theres a one workstend if Im not mistaken, so its either fit testing or some brekaover testing with the bridge crane (but I dont think its active yet) Ship 40 was in MB2, on Booster 21, Indian Ocean and Gigabey. LMAO 😭

I fucking love this. I know that I almost certainly can watch the launch and catch of the ship. I dont care about my sleep schedule, Starship is way more important.

V2 Boosters never existed btw. Only B16 remains and it doesnt make sense if it was the only V2 booster.

This means if the ship is NO GO it will land in the gulf. I cant see what else this means tbh.

STOP DOING WHATEVER you do and WATCH THIS!
More than a dozen flight tests and years of development, with countless hours worked by SpaceX engineers and technicians, all come down to this: the first orbital Starship launch carrying advanced Starlink satellites bound for space. Watch “Go For Orbit” and experience the moments behind flying the most ambitious Starship mission yet
