Listening to this Booster 13 Igniter test on max volume, you can actually hear the difference between the number of engines in each group of the ignition sequence.

1st pulse: 13 Center engines
2nd pulse: 15 Boost engines
3rd pulse: 5 Boost engines

Over the last months I’ve been feeling really sad for Gwynne Shotwell.

I can only imagine how many fires she’s attempting to put out behind the scenes.

Everything looking great for Flight 6!

A full-stack tanking test is expected to take place on Sunday. After that, S31 will need to be destacked for FTS installation.

IMO it will be incredibly difficult to pull this off in time for a launch on Monday afternoon. Tuesday seems a lot more likely!
