History
On March 9, 2022 a common dome for Ship 25 was flipped, before being sleeved the next day on March 10. A nose cone barrel section was moved to the windbreak on April 11 while the aft section was spotted as well. On May 25 the forward dome was sleeved.
As of June 2, the nosecone was being fitted with the TPS and the forward flaps. The common dome and mid LOX section were spotted in the High Bay on June 5. The tank section was moved into the Mid Bay on June 9. The forward dome section was sighted on June 18. More construction work was observed on June 22, with a common dome seen in the Mid Bay, but also the payload dispenser was installed in the nose cone barrel.
By July 8 work on the nose cone appeared to have largely been completed. The payload section was spotted being moved out of tent 3 on July 18. The LOX section was moved back into the High Bay on July 23. An aft section was rolled out of the tents towards the High bay in early August.
