SN11 flight attempt today!
One raptor engine swapped yesterday and it was static fired this AM. Will be the first time a static fire test and flight happen in the same day. This is in line with their eventual wish to turn flights around in the same day.
Anyway, hopefully the flight attempt becomes a flight and becomes the first successful landing.

Getting close to the launch of SN11.
Fog is giving long-distance cameras fits for visibility but here's to a successful landing.
BN1 might roll out today for cryo testing in a few days.....that is the first stage booster for Starship. This one won't fly...its a pathfinder edition......to learn how to build and transport.
