It's cool watching those boosters come back and land.  Can't wait to see the launch of the Starship in early December.  15 million lbs thrust, completely reusable booster as well as upper stage.  Largest rocket ever built.  I think they have been waiting on FAA approval to launch.  They also had to jump through some hoops on the environmental assessment.  Otherwise it would have already launched.

Musk wants to take off and Land in Texas. Boca Chica, goes over the Gulf to be safe. Florida has the Atlantic.

He is also going to launch from Pad 39A in Florida.  There were more tower segments in Florida, possibly for a 3rd launch tower.

that's why so many hate him and wealthy
people like him. he's getting things done and
not plodding through the muck so everybody
in gubmint can slice off their piece of the pie.
gubmint-run projects like that have to let each
bureaucrat get their piece in order to justify
the necessity of their job and their salary.
