My first sign of Starbase. Just passed the Ship QD arm extension for pad 1 on the highway.
Must watch! ☺️❤️🚀
New Future Link Interview 🎙️ with @FelixSchlang, the creator of What About It!?, covering Starship, Starbase and the future of spaceflight twice a week for seven years.
We talk about:
🌌 Seeing the Milky Way as a kid in Germany's Eifel region
🏭 Why Starship is built like a Ford Model T, so you can make thousands, not ten
💧 "Water towers can fly"
🇺🇸 Moving his whole family from Germany to Florida to be closer to the launches
🌕 Applying for Dear Moon with three kids at home
👨🚀 Two Apollo astronauts, Rusty Schweickart and Walt Cunningham, with two very different views of Starship
Thank you, Felix, for doing this with me. 🙏 Here's to the next thousand episodes!

A 5000ft high energy ground testing TFR for SpaceX's Massey’s test site starting on November 19 has been published. These are usually posted for ship static fire or booster cryo testing

Booster 22 - ready and waiting. 🚀

🚨 BREAKING: The FCC accepts SpaceX's application to acquire nationwide 800 MHz spectrum
Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile all told SpaceX "NO" when it asked to use their networks. SpaceX is building its own:
This deal with Grain Management secures 546 paired licenses covering ~100% of the U.S. population, on 800 MHz low band that penetrates straight through walls and already works with almost every smartphone.
Once it closes, SpaceX will hold up to 89 MHz of spectrum in every market it touches.
Elon Musk: "This is the last critical piece of the spectrum puzzle needed for SpaceX to provide complete phone coverage in America."
ITS HAPPENING
If driving to SpaceX, be extremely careful on Boca Chica Blvd right before crossing into the newer stretch of highway 4 - massive crater in the road after the long trail of potholes. 😬

A 11000ft TFR for a high energy testing ground hazard at the Starbase launch site starting on November 12 has been published. This is not a launch or reentry TFR

Spent the day passing a kidney stone and missed most of today’s air show, but not everyone can say they got an ambulance to pick them up on NASA’s shuttle landing strip! All’s well that ends well. 🥴
