Exciting stuff happening right now (See Starbase Live).
edit: And here’s the latest RGV Flyover video, which is the flyover from last week. Interesting content, but already heavily out of date.
Yes that's right
RGV Sneak Peek shows some nice shots of the steel plates, as well as the pour under the OLM. Looks like a lot more concrete is needed though, wonder when that’ll happen.
The steel plates look ready for transport, so I bet this next pour will be soon — it seems to be the main hold up.
And being lifted in place as we speak. NSF coverage: https://www.youtube.com/live/mhJRzQsLZGg?feature=share
Thanks for your updates @pigeonberry@lemmy.world. I know our community here is small so I'm glad some of us keep putting in the effort :)
Is there a way to manually trigger a sync or so?
Seeing other reply to you on another instance, and not being able to respond because those replies aren’t on lemm.ee is very frustrating.
Check out this RGV picture from the plate in the tent from above: https://twitter.com/rgvaerialphotos/status/1674925187437928450?s=46&t=Mj914Aam14loAYQOISZ9zQ
I know Twitter links are kind of impossible to follow right now, but don’t think I can embed an image in a comment. Anyway, that plate is huge, will be interesting to see them lift and transport it.
Definitely appreciate the improved speed, but the persistent federation issues has left me in a permanent FOMO state.
It does load that JSON very quickly!
I’m really impressed by how quickly the plate is getting assembled. I didn’t expect the manifolds to get added for another week or so, and now they’re at 2 / 3.
I’m not sure what the bottleneck is at the moment. Once everything is lifted in place they can move B9 over, but they might want to wait until they hit stage adapter is added.
B9 could go through spin prime tests without the plane being ready, and the plate can get tested without all deluge water & gas tanks present. We’re also it sure how far along the other OLM repairs are (cryo pipes are still being replaced). So there’s a ton of stuff happening in parallel.
