Starship update, 12/25/23

The title is somewhat misleading once again. How does anyone know if it was a "major issue" or not? Missing tiles on a static fire is not that big of a deal. That isn't a realistic flight condition. The static fire is testing the engine, not the tiles.

As for the anomalous de-tanking of the booster, the reason given on the video may not be major issue either. If it has more to do with shaking out the glitches after testing new equipment, then this isn't necessarily a major issue. Still, there was useful information here, so I'm including it on an embed. It's the most recently uploaded update as of this writing.
