Delivered this morning. Pics were taken from quite a distance. The trail that I would normally access the back of the site is no longer an option.

The weather reports aren't doing the wind justice today. Not much overhead work going on outdoors.

VIDEO: Delivery Day at SpaceX Boca Chica, a very windy day too, possibly a reason there wasn't the completion of Starship SN4 stacking today, but the stage is being set.

Also worth noting that what presumably looks like the skirt was lifted into the highbay at round 1:20 AM this morning.
