Mentioned as: Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Center (IN-SPACe)Narrative GeneralOct 5, 2025RT by @Cosmic_Penguin: Starbase This Week (2025-10-05) | Written by @Thousand_______ In this week of Starbase Tracking’s Starbase This Week, we are not only going to recap this week, but also Flight 10 and the plans for Flight 11 and for block 3 with the released mission page from SpaceX. Production Site Although there are no ships being stacked in a bay at Starbase, we are still able to see inside the Starfactory and saw this week that SpaceX is still going ham with the production of future ships. S40’s nosecone has received its ablative layer. SpaceX is still doing some TPS testing (more later), so S40 will probably have to wait a bit so that the lessons of the TPS test can be applied. The foundation of the Gigabay also received its 2nd to last pour. When the foundation is ready, the structure of the bay can finally rise and catch up with the Florida bay. On Friday, the first truck with the Gigabay tower crane parts drove by. This crane is one of 4 that will be used to rapidly build up the structure of the Gigabay. Launch Site Last week on Sunday, Maarvin aka the LR11K crane at the launch site, was lowered. Flight 11 was still a bit away so it was kind of strange that it was going down at that time, so it was more probable that Maarvin was going to get some modifications. For what, you might ask? OLIT-3 (Pad 2) still needs its SQD, and the fact that the SQD is at height and not knowing the weight of it, it is reasonable to think that Marvin needs some modifications. Marvin had its SpaceX boom removed before the lift of OLM-B and used the yellow boom while the SpaceX boom got some much needed refurbishment work. The SpaceX boom is taller so it would be able to lift the SQD into place. The Pad 2 chopsticks have conducted the first test of its stabilisers, which are supposed to prevent the Ship/Booster being lifted from swinging Masseys Testing is also on its way again, with B18.3 doing its 3rd cryo test. The tests are done without the cap installed for the integrated HSR load testing. We will probably see it being installed for later load tests while SpaceX first conducts some basic cryo tests. The ship and booster thrust sims were moved to Massey's in a double rollout on Friday. It is unknown whether this is to receive upgrades or to be scrapped. Roberts Road The gigabay of Roberts Road is a bit further than the one at Starbase, where it received its 2nd tower crane. This is the 2nd of 4. SLC-37 On Tuesday, there was a permit posted for SLC-37. This complex used to belong to ULA, where they launched the Delta IV and Delta IV Heavy and where the Saturn I and IB launched from. On the permit, it shows that SpaceX wants to build 2 launch towers, both facing east. It also shows the layout of the tank farm. Upcoming Flights We have begun to receive NOTMARS and NOTAMS for Flight 11, all confirming the 13th of October. Since Flight 10 was the first fully successful launch and landing of a Block 2 stack, SpaceX made a recap video showing new angles of the launch and a mission profile for Flight 11. In the mission profile, SpaceX said that the booster for Flight 11 will be booster 15-2, which has flown previously on Flight 8 with ship S34. Of the B15’s 33 original engines, SpaceX is planning to refly 24!! B15-2 will - just like B16 - do a splashdown in the Gulf and will test a new landing configuration for Block 3. The new landing configuration will go from 13 engines lit, then down to 5, and then 3 for the final landing burn. S38 will also do a simlink deploy of 8 simlinks, just like S37, and do an in-space relight, despite not having done a single engine static fire. And just like S37, S38 will have some tiles removed in critical areas where there is no backup ablative layer - this will likely be in areas where there is no risk of burn through into the fuel tanks. B15-2 isn't the only one with a new landing profile for this flight. SpaceX said that S38 will also do a simulated landing to gather data for ship catches by a "dynamic banking maneuver and will test subsonic guidance algorithms prior to a landing burn and splashdown in the Indian Ocean". SpaceX also confirmed Flight 11 is NET 13th of October. There you go, all caught up for this week and for the coming Flight 11.
