Crap I missed this one!
The hopper Starship build is at least on a single chunk of construction now.
I’m not sure how to feel about this. Are we actually in the Flash Gordon timeline?

Was thinking that exactly.
Ah yes, back when all rockets were just V2s.
I’ve lost count of the number of old SF films using stock V2 test footage (as instantly recognized by the checkerboard pattern to make camera tracking easier).
Can’t wait to see it fly.

I can’t get over how much the SpaceX hopper just looks like a shiny water tower. Test flights are going to be so odd.
