Introduction to Video Content

In this week's Starbase update, Max Evans from NSF takes us on a tour of the Star Factory and the production site. The Star Factory is nearly complete, with the last few open panels being closed and production expected to move in soon. At the Megabay, more and more glass panels are being installed, although it is unclear how they will be utilized. The old mid bay area is undergoing cleanup and restructuring, possibly hinting at some exciting developments. Additionally, there is a mysterious concrete structure being built at the bays, leaving viewers speculating on its purpose. Overall, the video provides a glimpse into the progress being made at Starbase and hints at potential testing and booster returns in the near future.

Subtitles section

On this Starbase update, I'm obviously not Jack, this is not Starbase, that's not the production site, but that is the launch site.

Starship will be coming here eventually, so I guess for today you're stuck with me.

We have the signs of an imminent return of a booster to the launch pad, some old vehicles are being scrapped, and testing might start as early as this week.

And also, we have road closures.

Howdy everybody, my name's Max Evans with NSF, and join me today for this week's Starbase update.
