It Happened! SpaceX Destroyed Starship Historic Pad, What Next???
What a revolution!
Starbase is undergoing its most significant transformation yet. As new prototypes and systems emerge, the old ones are gradually being phased out.
Today, I want to highlight the test stand system that has been integral to Starship's development from the very beginning. Its era is drawing to a close, marked by the demolition of test stand pad B.
It Happened! SpaceX Destroyed Starship Historic Pad, What Next???
Just a few days ago, the test stand played a crucial role in conducting the static fire test for S30. However, this test marked its final contribution to SpaceX and the Starship project. Following S30's departure from Pad B back to the Production Site, workers began the process of dismantling the system. Excavators and cranes were mobilized near the stand, signifying the beginning of its end. By the afternoon of May 12, the SQD (Ship Quick Disconnect umbilical cable) was removed from the test stand, followed by the SQD support frame. These systems are pivotal in the fuel loading process for each test attempt, further cementing the demise of Pad B. With the removal of the SQD systems, the remaining components of Pad B, such as the legs and table, are slated for elimination in the near future.

Now is the time to pay tribute to the test stand Pad B. Erected in late 2020, this test stand has played a pivotal role in numerous milestones of Starship's development journey. From the test launches of SN9 and SN11 to countless spin prime, cryogenic, and static fire tests of subsequent prototypes, Pad B has been an indispensable asset in advancing the Starship program. Let's show our immense gratitude to Pad B by liking, sharing, or subscribing to this video if you haven't already done so.

Its sad to see Pad B go, but Im excited about what’s coming next-SpaceX never ceases to amaze!
Great job covering the Starlink updates too, the sheer number of satellites is mind-blowing!
Big shoutout to the SpaceX channel team for putting together such an informative and entertaining video!
My thought: construct a catch tower for flight test 5. If you need a launch tower, do not risk it with an unproven catch operation.

For me, it seems to be dangerous to land a Starship next to an already landed booster. The exhaust of the rockets could 'warm up' the booster too much, and then both will be destroyed.

@@gottfriedheumesser1994 , why not move the booster from the catch tower to the launch tower before catching starship with the catch tower?

@@JustAThought01 That's my question too. But the YT video producers always show a starship being fought by the tower aside from a booster. Obviously, they think that one has only to stack the ship on the booster, refill both of them with fuel and payload, and launch them again within a few hours. That seems 'very optimistic' to me.
Space X aren't Sentimental they keep moving forward no matter what!

Just tear it down & rebuild it no matter the number of times it takes👍
Old suborbital tank fram also will be demolished for the construction of a new orbital site.

Yeah yeah, we forgot to mention this
Cant wait to see the new launch tower in action, though I hope it doesn’t face the same delays we’ve seen before.
4 main legs, plus perhaps some additional supports that aren't main legs.

Those are called 'secondary'' legs, i reckon...

Great Update, Kev. It's any bodies guess what SpaceX plans to do. They seem to holding there cards pretty close to there vest on this one.

@@colonbina1 I will my Friend.
Haha, I wonder if the new Orbital Launch Mount will have some crazy design
I have to say, Im a bit skeptical about the timeline for all this new construction-SpaceX has big plans but sometimes they run behind schedule.
8:58 - 6000 satellites you say ? you don't say
I think the new tower of the OLM will be taller to easily upgrade of starship
I believe that the megalithic arm s needs further support s from the rear of the stand itself. The weight on them will put excessive tension on the front of the launch pad. Allowing some of the weight to be absorbed by the rear of the launchpad allows for an easier an more accurate landing. Besides it just means less can go wrong.
Always a pleasure Kevin. thanks for your hard work and dedication.

Thanks for your comment. We always try harder to make better video for everyone, so keep following and discussing on our channel ☺️
It doesn't make sense to build the regular sized tower they should build the tallest version so they'll be ready for both Versions 2 & 3 on tower 2. Are they now going to launch S-26 or are they just useing it for testing.
How many legs? 🤔... ONE . The best part is no part 😅
With space above our sky getting so full of starlink and other satelites,how does rockets get pass them all?

Your title is so, that one could argue the launch stand is destroyed. For that, you don't get a like button.
