Starship Update, 7-14-23



Comment:

This update is provided by Felix Schlang of 'What About It'. It seems that he has an advertisement there for Ground News, which I've heard of before. If you're worried about bias in the news, then supposedly Ground News can fill in the gaps. There is some legitimate concerns about bias, as Felix mentions, there are only a FEW media companies and owners. You get a pretty slanted view, if you're not careful.

But this was supposed to be a Starship Update. It may seem like it is going slow sometimes, especially if you're watching SpaceX closely. On the other hand, if you don't watch this closely, you may miss the next launch. That's because they are getting the launch pad back into good order again.

SpaceX is not only going to launch one rocket, but many. They are gearing up for that. Once they get moving on that, it will become quite the sight to behold. NASA only built about a dozen Saturn V's. But SpaceX may have that many on backlog if this keeps up. The first few will be expendable, but once these things are recovered as intended, the number of ships will grow to a large number. As that happens, the cadence of launches will increase steadily.

Can't wait to see it.



Here's the video:
