Sammy, yes, aparrently I had a news, most did not know yet! That's always nice! :D Logistics add up. That's the problem. Every launch needs it and if you have 20+ launches per year, that's a huge cost saver over time and that's what SpaceX is always after. Thank you for being one of my Patrons! It helps a lot! The new cam will be a beast! I will have to tame the beast first though. Everything will be new with it. Different programs and tools. Different settings. So out of the box it might need a few episodes of getting to know it. :D It should be better than the old cheap but very trusty Canon 2000D. I'd recommend it for starters. Served me well. So, here's to 60fps and direct recording with a full format sensor! :D

Pete, The October flight will be only 22 km, so no SH needed. SH will most likely fly alone at first as well. SpaceX said, that a stacked flight will be in 2020. :)

G’day Felix, was not aware that SpaceX is on the move in Florida. Time to add the new digs to my saved places on Goggle Maps 😁. Logistics play a big part in the overall scheme of things but the amount of time and money spent by SpaceX must be huge not only on this occasion but on previous places eg Spaceport America. Another great episode, next episode should be crystal clear with the new camera. Congratulations 🎉🍾🎈 on 70 Patrons....proud to be 1 of them.

Elon said that the orbital test of Starship will be done shortly after the October 13 Starship 22km test flight; will this be an SSTO flight or will they assemble the rings of Super Heavy by then? It seems clear that the flame diverter won't be ready by then and I'm wondering how realistic is to have Super Heavy assembled and ready so soon after the 22km flight. Thanks, Pete

Now you made me curious. What was the mising puzzle piece?

I just watched the "SpaceX moving Cocoa...". I was totally lost about a facility on KSC till I googled it. Now that I have that peice of the puzzle, it makes a lot of sense.
