AT LAST!! First Module of Tower 2 Gets Stacked! - SpaceX Weekly #123

This week at Starbase, Booster 12 undergoes a new round of cryo testing at the launch site. And, while crews are hard at work on various tower modules over at Sanchez, module one is finally rolled out and stacked at the launch site. Over in Florida, while Falcon 9 launch and recovery operations keep moving forward, we catch a glimpse of SpaceX's latest addition to their impressive list of marine assets.

That "record setting cadence" is going to be taking a hit this month.

Thanks for the work you are doing. I'm new to this channel and really appreciate the clean to the point information. many channels feel it's necessary to give a plotted history of Space X before giving a small bit of additional news. Your approach is very welcome

[Wrangler-fpei]

Wow, the tower 2 is rising! Thanks for updates!!

[wkjeeping]

It's cool the booster quick disconnect didn't get damaged on the last launch.

[danapeck]

Might be a bit quiet at the Cape for a while.

Hope to see if tower 2 will be taller.

[imconsequetau]

In one sense, the concrete base has been replaced with a steel tower section (but still filled with concrete). So the tower is already one full section taller!

no mention of F9 grounding, guess that being a friday thing will be in next weeks video.

I was waiting for the starship v2 prototype!

Having stacked towers for a living, I’m very curious as to why they rig up each section and leave it that way for so long before actually picking it. Seems really odd. Usually you wouldn’t rig it to the crane until you are ready to do it right then. This is unlike any other tower and certainly way different than any of the ones I’ve stacked so who knows.
