    Greatest channel on youtube. Most people don’t realize that one day these videos will be core memories of the early Space Age for them. Thank you so much
  • @tobycatVA
    Excellent shots. Sounds like something needs greasing. The ambient sounds with nobody yammering incessantly over it is a treat.
  • @FrelanceEQ
    fastforward clips ought to have their multiplier on screen!
  • @jason_green_io
    the whale songs during the stacking really adds to the feeling of being there

    Every time I see the sped up video of Starship stacking I play in my head the "pre-launch theme" from the Thunderbirds TV show. ...and now it'll play in your head for the rest of the day. 🤣
  • @MickRonald
    My second favorite Starbase sound: Starship stacking and destacking. Thank you NSF.
  • @MrCrystalcranium
    Booster and ship look majestic in the setting sun. Good Luck SX with ITF IV

    Thanks NSF team, time to get the snacks bought for launch day viewing. 🍿 .

    In a British accent of course, "The mating call of the starship is a beautiful scene. With the flaps fully extended the starship approaches its resting position on top the booster. It is at this point when the ship QD arm swings in to place to connect where the true magic can begin. Be careful not to spook the starship as a de-stack could be imminent." Cue dramatic music.

    Thanks NSF team! It's strange not seeing all 8 vertical tanks.

    WD-40 was invented in San Diego in 1953 as a rust-prevention solvent for Atlas missile outer skins by a chemist at the Rocket Chemical Company.

    I find it amusing that the deluge test was like 2 minutes after NSF decided it wasn't going to happen and ended the stream, lol! (Also, could Jack donate some bacon grease for the chopsticks? )

    Man, sounds like the tower really needs to get all it's fittings greased, I can only imagine how horrible that must sound like in person
