Spaceception Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) That should be almost a thousand tiles so far (992). I wonder when we'll see tiles wrapping around the nosecone, also SN16?

tater Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Note that the date on that FCC filing regarding a Starlink test shows NET 4/20/2020—but it was only filed a few days ago, so the 2020 is a typo obviously. That means we won't expect a test flight until maybe Tuesday next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tater Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) Regarding the chart above, the ring sections only go on that chart if they have been positively IDed. This is usually one of Mary's pics that shows the paper taped to it that says "BN2 COMMON DOME" or whatever. Loads of rings and ring sections have not been IDed.
