Best country in the world. Starbase does not happen anywhere else. Thank you to our ancestors who made this possible. Happy Independence Day!

Wonderful memorial at the Marine Base in Harlingen. Learning lots about the pacific theater of the war (thanks Dan Carlin). Incredible sacrifices made on that volcanic wasteland. Their bravery is inspiring!

American hero right here. Gene is a legend. A great surf instructor and a greater man. Thanks Gene! (Forgive the crappy ai object-removal edits)

Same feeling I get when I buy a Coke at McDonalds and can demolish it with their huge straws.

Things change so fast at Starbase that every time I’ve left for a week, I hope to comeback to some changes. I’m always disappointed when hwy 4 is worse than when I left it. I still hold out hope. lol.

I asked for Buccee’s, but I guess this will do.

Let’s go!!! Starships were made to fly!

Just saw a big, green object come from straight overhead, down to the horizon. Looking directly west. Right around 8:58 pm. Assuming it was a meteor… Anyone have cameras pointed in that direction? Or is there a way to find out what it was? NSF - NASASpaceflight.com LabPadre Space

Some of the best looking tooling I’ve ever seen! It never gets old seeing how big these are!

“and here we go!”

All I can say is “amen”. Drive slowly!

Nothing like the pre-flight visits here. I go out a few times just to chat with old friends. Pre-flight butterflies are pretty much permanent now. Go Starship!

The reflection off of the office building 🤌

Forgot to wear my lucky sock the first time. Sorry guys.

I get to tackle a lot of tough challenges working at SpaceX. But I will admit, one of the toughest challenges for me is staying focused on launch day! So much excitement and energy to distract me. MUST. REMAIN. FOCUSED.
