Booster 21 has performed a full duration Static Fire test 🔥 🎥: Avid Space

@LabPadre That Prometheus statue is gonna amazing

@LabPadre Been watching this booster move around all week. Nice to see it finally do something loud. Good to see it go clean!

@LabPadre I will never get tired of seeing the shockwave pattern that the Pad 2 flame trench drives 😍

@amechi_nwandu @LabPadre Damn, they really have to over engineer that launchpad for that kind of action

@LabPadre It looked a little short, timing wise! Do you think it is because of the new "burn" plates they installed on the flame trench walls?

@LabPadre That thing is mean

@LabPadre Full duration on all 33. Flight 14 just got a lot louder on the calendar.

@LabPadre Looked like exactly 15 seconds

@LabPadre There are going to be some very unhappy birds in Louisiana

@LabPadre What is a full duration? 10, 15, 20 or 60 seconds. Or just as according to plan?

@LabPadre Man is 1 hell of an ape with tools....

@LabPadre Fifth one on pad 2 I think. Pretty solid right Zack?

@LabPadre Its grinds my gears when people say it was a full duration SF, how do you know its full duration as this was the shortest SF they have completed at around 14 seconds compared to previous attempts

@LabPadre Full duration static fire 🔥 This is the pace that wins. Talent follows momentum.

@LabPadre Not full duration. Looking at the Frost line on the upper half of starship, not intended to be full duration. I wonder if its testing the header tanks for boost back burn.

@LabPadre Fuck yes

@LabPadre Potentially a silly question, but during these tests are all 33 engines at full power? The vision and sound indicate they are, because that's an incredible force on the hold down clamps

@LabPadre Why is ~15 seconds considered full duration?

@LabPadre That is noisy..

@LabPadre the amount of energy release in that short time is mind boggling. How the hell the GSE stands up to that I dont know. Its almost more impressive that the rocket its self.

@LabPadre That’s one small fire for a booster, one giant leap for the swarm.

@LabPadre Good example of light is faster than sound! Will they launch ITF 14 by mid September and will the Starship go orbital to launch 40 V3 satellites?

@LabPadre Let’s see added protection in the flame trench helped.

@LabPadre Hopefully a couple of weeks until it yeets itself and starship off the pad 🤞

@LabPadre Was that a abort?

@LabPadre 16s. That's not full duration is it?

@LabPadre Grok just told me that Booster 20's Static Fire test ran 24 to 25 seconds, compared to this 15 second run. I'd wait for SpaceX give a confirmation that this test was a success.

@LabPadre

@LabPadre Keep up the good work

@LabPadre Creo q nunca dejará de sorprender la fuerza que genera este animal... increíble

@LabPadre Damn I missed it. That looked insane nice static fire

@LabPadre Don't remember a video covering the inner boiler chamber.

@LabPadre a
