@strafstrudel Yeah I thought they did a good job with that. Can’t even imagine that type of lifestyle. But I suppose in some ways, we aren’t too far off of that currently.

Bill Andersen@strafstrudel·2h

@CSI_Starbase Yeah there is that. I was more talking about the material conditions of life there and the constant surveillance / politicization of every aspect of life.

Star City was pretty much perfect in every way right up until the moment they intercepted that capsule. Whether it’s physically possible or not, my immediate reaction was…Nahhh 😂 Everything that came after that point was just ridiculous lol.

@strafstrudel I was wondering how accurate that depiction was. Like if Russian boomers roll their eyes when they watch it. I notice they did the thing they always do when depicting the USSR. Always gloomy, never a sunny day lol.

Bill Andersen@strafstrudel·2h

@CSI_Starbase That aside, the show paints a near perfect picture of life in the USSR. I studied there as an undergrad in 1985 and the show nailed that vibe perfectly.

@Arkvoodle55 I’m mad at all of it lol.

Arkvoodle@Arkvoodle55·2h

@CSI_Starbase Oh you were talking about her descent. I was just meaning that o was mad at the two from Venus getting shot at. Hahaha if that happened that would’ve been crazy

English

Zack Golden@CSI_Starbase·2h

@Arkvoodle55 The idea of the space station being in the perfect position at the perfect time for her to deorbit and land in that location on a whim is absurd. I’m just glad she didn’t land the capsule on top of them or I would have turned it off.

@CSI_Starbase Hahaha I was so mad that it happened. They were so close. It was a very good show

@blueknight0055 Are you sure that was me? I don’t think I’ve ever once even entertained the idea

@CSI_Starbase Dunno if you remember this old conversation we had but it was about alternatives to mechazilla arms. It was a catch field using moving wires. You stated something about uneven stress factors dooming it 🤔

@StarCobShipSon I like how they point out that they will be sitting ducks after spending 9 months in zero G…and then proceed to have them hike 2km😂

@CSI_Starbase Yeah the ending was abit ridiculous but the rest of the episode was straight fire

@F1GuyDan I feel like there should be one between 9 and 10 but that would probably be too dangerous…especially for Max lol.

WOWOW. All the views I've been waiting so long to see. Lots of information in this documentary as well. I had a feeling I would need to go back and make changes in the script for Part 4 and turns out I was correct. Overall, it should be pretty minimal but I'm definitely glad I waited

Everyone who proposed this idea endlessly in my DMs for the last 4 years can finally rest! Turns out it worked pretty well! A little toasty…but definitely an impressive result for the first attempt

@medennis3467 @LabPadre @DeffGeff The ship does single engine tests using header tanks...booster should do 13 engine tests using its landing tanks as well. It doesn't seem radical at all to me.

English

Michael Dennis@medennis3467·3d

@CSI_Starbase @LabPadre @DeffGeff That would be a radical change in protocol. Is there something bothering you about them not having done this test in the past?

Zack Golden@CSI_Starbase·3d

Great to see a booster back on the pad! B20 is ready for its static fire campaign. I hope we see a dedicated landing burn relight test this time! 🎥 @LabPadre ✂️ @DeffGeff

@KiteTeak They never existed in the first place as far as I know. One big difference with out Roberts Road and Starbase Gigabay's were constructed

@CSI_Starbase It’s interesting to see those supporting steel structures in the middle are now gone. Is is an amazing amount of steel beams.

English

Zack Golden@CSI_Starbase·3d

This is such an awesome structure! Can't wait to see it fully outfitted. Btw, 420 tons is MASSIVE compared to the existing cranes in the Megabay's which only have a 180 ton lifting capacity.

Kiko Dontchev@TurkeyBeaver

The Cape Gigabay is getting closer to being ready for Starship! Teams recently installed the 420-ton crane – which we’ll use to break over and move Starships and Super Heavy boosters preparing for flight. One step closer to the Moon and Mars 🚀🚀🚀

@TerarriaPlayer That’s definitely possible, now that I re-read what he said, it is a bit ambiguous.

Mark Watney@TerarriaPlayer·3d

@CSI_Starbase Is the lifting capacity 420 tons? I thought that was how much it weighed

@Blaze_R935 Cranes never lift near their limits

English

Blaze@Blaze_R935·3d

@CSI_Starbase Will the V4 booster get anywhere close to that 420-ton limit, or are they building in plenty of margin for the crane?

Zack Golden@CSI_Starbase·3d

@antosh_1 They use two cranes instead of one

English

antosh@antosh_1·3d

@CSI_Starbase but don’t they already do that with the current cranes in the megabay?

English

Zack Golden@CSI_Starbase·3d

@antosh_1 No it’s also used to lift vehicles between the transport stands and work stations.

English

antosh@antosh_1·3d

@CSI_Starbase is that extra ~300 tons just for the break over and that’s it? 😭
