SN7 ambient (low, because the road was still opened) pressure testing/leak checks at around 9:30 p.m CT/local yesterday

Screen shot captured from LabPare. You can see venting from 09:30, first a little bit (top and at ground), then little less and more later. Totally takes 2 minutes or so.

Wondering if they took it all the way to the maximum required.

Top venting has stopped, this means pressure is building in the tank.

Frost has deteriorated from the tank and now starting to go away from the bulkhead and lines are venting hard. Looks like de tanking.
