Wow the speed that they’re building that High Bay is insane! Can’t wait to see a Super Heavy booster in it ;)

[SuperMagnetizer]

Great work, Mary and Jack. Thanks Earl also, for running the nosecone machine!

[jonedge]

With the speed that things go up, are stripped down and rebuilt again at Boca Chica, I'm starting to think I'm watching the Lego Movie! 😀 Thanks Mary for the reporting! 👍

[istiles]

Love watching the progress. Those ironworkers are daredevils! Takes a lot of skill to operate a crane, but the person operating the big blue crane is a treat to watch. But above all else, I want to see a nosecone atop a Starship!

[Zeppflyer]

That dude climbing around on top of the Highbay wall section when it was just suspended from the crane.... Jobs I could not do.

[schettie]

I thought the “Bird” was good, but the “Wheee!” just slayed me! Thanks for all you guys are doing but especially Mary for always getting out there, documenting history in the making, for the rest of us around the world.

[elbybrook]

Thank you. I didn't think I would live long enough to see an actual honest-to-god spaceport being built.

[Thesert]

the perks of of being awake at 3 am, i get to catch these early

[CyberFitzy]

Amazing footage and photography! Excellently labeled too. Great watching. Thank you!

[jasoncasey]

That high Bay is going up quick! Awesome footage Mary :-)

[neptunejupitersaturn]

Mary and team, you are the best! Thanks as always for everything that you do! Best community ever!

[atanasg]

Not sure if this is a new camera or anything else has changed but the clarity and the colors in this one are out-of-this-world gorgeous!

[MaddogJones]

That place is alive! Everyday there's something new... so cool to watch it evolve each day. I noticed a SpaceX branded crane removing panels from the concrete form below SN5, are there more cranes and vehicles being purchased by Spacex for this site?
They must be super confident in knowing what happened to SN4 because they have put so much more work into that launch stand, it's getting some complex. Great videos and photos, love this channel!!!

This is a method of construction called tilt up. Whether poured concrete or steel and siding, the walls are assembled on the deck and then "tilted up".

[sabinabartel]

I wake up in London and watch your work. I thank you so much. Live long and prosper sustaniably.

This video only released 3 hours ago, and it has over 11, 000 views. Those people if they are in the U.S. must have watched this very early in the morning. Goes to show their interest and dedication to SpaceX Boca Chica

[hpeet]

Look forward to these everyday, thanks again!

[GerardHammond]

What a past 18 months of development! The next 6 months are going to be amazing. Thank you Mary

Brilliant sunset with Manitowoc. The beehive is super busy. Thanks BCGal & team.
