Ship 43 is on its way back from Massey’s, and Ship 42 is rolling in to take its place - all while Booster 22 is being lifted off Pad 2 after its static fire. Never a dull moment at Starbase. Watch tonight’s triple header live: nsf.live/starbase @NASASpaceflight

Been a while since I've posted a timelapse of Falcon 9 Second Stage "musical chairs" action at SpaceX McGregor. This afternoon, the next Stage 2 arrived and switched places with the last Stage 2, which soon departed for its upcoming mission at a space port near you! @NASASpaceflight | nsf.live/mcgregor
