Julia Bergeron@julia_bergeron·Weekly Gigabay construction update #2 from US-1.
Harry Stranger@Harry__StrangerCaptured less than 8hrs ago, this 30cm satellite imagery gives a good overview of Blue Origin's & SpaceX's manufacturing facilities on the Space Coast.
Harry Stranger@Harry__StrangerMost of SpaceX's Roberts Road facility, including the new Gigabay under construction.

SpaceX@SpaceXWe’ve received approval to develop Space Launch Complex-37 for Starship operations at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. Construction has started. With three launch pads in Florida, Starship will be ready to support America’s national security and Artemis goals as the world’s premiere spaceport continues to evolve to enable airport-like operations. We’d like to thank the Department of the Air Force (@usairforce), 45th Space Force (@SLDelta45), and U.S. Fish and Wildlife (@USFWS) for their effort on the environmental review

Julia Bergeron@julia_bergeronGigabay progression from the public POV #6. It doesn't look like much progress from last week in the public view, but, from the air, the view shows the new progress on the eastern side.Another @NASASpaceflight Cape Flyover is in the works!
Julia Bergeron@julia_bergeronGigabay progression from the public POV #7. I chose a new spot with a better angle to continue sharing progress as we see it from Titusville.(Sorry to anyone on the @NASASpaceflight team that may do a time-lapse down the road!)

Gavin Richmond@tweetsiphotos·SpaceX Roberts Road facilities from my Saturday flyover. Gigabay progress, Falcon 9 booster B1078 parked outside HangarX awaiting refurb, and Starship tower segments (likely for SLC-37) under work!
What are they doing in that factory building there?
RGV Aerophotography just conducted its inaugural flyover of KSC, providing us with remarkable close-up images of 39A-B, LC49, and LC40. The level of detail captured is extraordinary, arguably the most comprehensive overview of the facilities I have encountered. All of the Starship launch site was gone over in detail, and a comparison to Starbase was provided. A patron member, generous enough to do the job using a small aircraft with approvals, was used along with the same type of cameras to capture the images. He had to both fly and take images.Hopefully, a public summary video will be made available by midweek. Stay tuned.
Cape Recap (2026-01-25) | Written by @KangasSpacerooWe’re back at it again, this time getting ready to shoot beyond Low Earth Orbit. This time, to the Moon. Welcome back for yet another Cape Recap.StarshipLC 39A’s Starship pad continues to be brought closer and closer to operational status. On the 13th, we saw the SQD arm lifted and installed on the tower, and the second BQD hood delivered to the pad.Also at LC 39A, more holddown arms were installed a couple of days later. Even more clamps would be installed about a week later. While this pad may be a few months behind Pad 2 at Starbase, the hope is we’ll see a flight out of the famed LC39A complex a couple of months later.
