Chopstick Full-Speed Testing! S30 ready for static fire and Boeing Starliner...SpaceX Weekly #6
Exciting times indeed! May promises to be an explosive month for SpaceX and Starship.
Now, let's take a look at recent developments in Starbase.
One of the most captivating activities has been the testing of B13—the hardware designated for Flight 6, slated for launch at the year's end. Flight 6 may mark SpaceX's inaugural attempt at refueling. Following the production phase, B13 has transitioned into the testing phase, akin to other prototypes. Its initial test involved cryogenic testing, a crucial step in assessing its readiness for upcoming missions.
On the morning of April 25, B13 was transported to the Massey test site, where it underwent its inaugural cryogenic test on April 26. This test focused solely on the liquid methane tank.

During the test, fuel was introduced into the tank, accompanied by venting from storage tanks, resulting in a somewhat obscured view of the proceedings. Following fuel loading, a distinct frost line emerged on a section of the methane tank. Notably, these frost patterns only manifested on approximately half of the tank, indicating that the liquid methane fuel was not entirely loaded during this test.

Despite this, the test proceeded without incident, validating the methane tank's compliance with standards for storing cryogenic methane fuel at temperatures as low as -180 degrees Celsius or -292 degrees Fahrenheit.
