SpaceX Pushed B18 Scrap While Revealing Flight 12 Launch Date! Soyuz Pad Destroyed...SpaceWeekly#21
SpaceX is quickly regaining momentum, with solid progress on Booster 18, Booster 19, and both launch pads. Updated targets for Flight 12 point to an active new phase ahead.
At the same time, Russia is confronting a major disruption after one of its launch pads sustained serious damage.
Here are the week’s top developments in this episode of Great SpaceX.

SpaceX began dismantling Booster 18 immediately after the incident, and early work on Booster 19 now appears to be underway. The rapid pace of activity is expected to continue, everyone. At the same time, upgrades to both launch pads are still moving forward with steady progress.
The recent Booster 18 incident has certainly slowed SpaceX’s momentum, although a slowdown does not mean a halt. In fact, the response from the team shows a determined push to recover and move forward with even greater focus. Once engineers assessed the condition of Booster 18, it became clear that the vehicle could no longer support future Starship operations. Its remaining value is the data it can provide, which will help guide improvements in the next generation of prototypes.

After confirming that the site was safe, SpaceX moved quickly. By the afternoon of November twenty first, a large crane arrived at the Massey facility. The crane was positioned to support teams working on the damaged booster beginning the morning of November twenty second. By that afternoon, the first major cutting operations were underway. The initial cut showed that SpaceX chose to separate the booster into two main sections, which were the liquid oxygen tank and the methane tank. This approach likely served two purposes. The first purpose was to simplify the analysis of each section. The second purpose was to account for the different levels of post incident damage. By the end of the day, both sections had been fully separated.
