I signed up to be a patreon because of the scoop on Cooco beach closing. Way to go. I look forward to contributing.

Hey Felix, for the topic about long duration space habitation (ew, it rhymes...) I remember an article about a suit, that imitates old age. I found it with google and its called GERT (lol) You wear it and you have the same problems you have, when you are 80 years old. Do you, as mega space enthusiast, know anything about tests using those in zero gravity? Because you need a lot of strength to move in those suits.

Hey Don, yeah, I am pretty sure, SpaceX is making these inhouse, as in Hawthorne they should have everything they need. They're making Falcon Rockets there. ;) And yes! The offers most likely are for stuff like this! Good workers are always needed and the team in Cocoa did a fantastic job of trying to outpace SpaceX's fast changes!

Hey all! There was a little Reddit desaster with yesterdays early access. Sorry for the inconvenience! I'll continue to provide early access to Patrons, as you guys are one of the main reasons, why I can do this in the first place. So, THANK YOU ALL so much for your support! You Rock! :)

Felix made the video private after the contents of the episode was made public on Reddit. He later decided to publish the episode early stating “Ah what ever” Great episode Felix and shame on the Parton who thought it was a great idea to “cut your lunch” 😏 I love my Patreon perks so I hope Felix will continue to post early episodes for us 🙏🏻

Felix has just made the video public, you can view it now.

I'm afraid I'e /n the same boat Felix, says private and I just received my receipt for this month's contribution?

2019-12-01 23:41:20 +0000 UTC

I can't see the video it says private

I watch your tubes in the morning with my wife, then again in the afternoon. So much new news to take in.

2019-12-01 23:08:29 +0000 UTC

You have the best coverage of SpaceX and other space news - not always the best news but quick and candid. You rock! There are often dead ends in using rapid prototyping - and I think we just saw one in Cocoa,

Is SpaceX making those formed sections of the bulkheads? Was thinking they're outsourced; must take a serious hydraulic press for those compound curves. But am reconsidering, since Cocoa workers were offered jobs in Hawthorne. Could it be for work like this? Would be just like SpaceX to buy their own press, and I don't really know how big a one is needed. [Could also come in handy for Cybertrk. :) ]

Thank you, Don! All just possible because of loads and loads of contributions to the show! It all stands and falls with the most awesome community I could have ever wished for! :)

Wow! You got the real scoop! Our many speculations about Mk2 and 4 and how they'd transition are now answered. SpaceX is both maintaining their fast pace and slowing down and taking a measured approach - just split between 2 sites. So significant that they laid off the workforce; sounds good they'll build more conventionally at Roberts Rd, since it'll be their main, busiest facility for many years. You are the best!
