Booster 21 went through round 3 of cryo testing at Massey's last night...and this one was MUCH more like what we are used to seeing...with a full load and lots of venting as pressures were altered before a full detank.

Ship 42 is now stacked on the A3:4 section that moved into the bay on Saturday...evidenced by the 4PL being removed from the bay. This now leaves both bridge cranes free to lift Ship 40 onto a stand...at some point...soon...ish.

At Production, S42's A3:4 section has rolled from SFC into MB-2 ready to be stacked with the rest of the ship. Once stacked, next to move in should be the transfer tubes.

Booster 21 Cryo test #1# at Massey's. Not sure what to say about this. Maybe an aborted test, maybe just a quick test to check flow into and/or out of the vehicle?
@LabPadre
After the Chopsticks had risen to the top of the tower yesterday, they went through a short round of testing, including the pushers, before descending again. The SQD also tested with a single extend/retract before re-setting once the arms were clear.

At Massey's, it's probable that B21 has been ambient proof tested. Tank farm venting was spotted and some small, almost *not there* venting was seen from the CH4 tank. Always hard to be definitive with these tests but if they cryo over the next day or so, we'll know.

Booster 20 was lifted down from the launch mount earlier today and has recently arrived back inside MB-1 for engine swap-outs...2 V3 Raptors per @elonmusk ...before a next flight attempt NET 20th July per the @SpaceX website.

RAPTORS! 3 engines, two sea level and one vacuum, have been brought around and moved into MB-2 for install on Ship 40. Seen here as 2 low, red blobs moving left to right just behind that black fence, the 2 SLs were followed by the taller RVac.

A second round of testing...after they'd tethered the flappy strut! 😂They look good.
