The first of (hopefully) many of B9's raptors has been delivered to the Mega bay!

Booster 9 is receiving its Raptors!

Nic (@NicAnsuini) is capturing them making the trip to the Megabay.

Another Raptor spotted on @LabPadre #RoverCam...our 10th, however apparently one other was spotted earlier by another content creator while Rover was having technical difficulties. Likely this was the 11th to B9.

Here are the 17 raptors that were spotted heading to the MegaBay for installation on B9, It's unknown how many B9 actually has as they seem to have stopped moving them.

What a lucky spot! The 18th (I think) Raptor seen on @LabPadre #RoverCam has recently moved over to #B9. Over the weekend, they were either moved very sneakily, or staff spent the 2 days fully installing the previous new arrivals.

Raptor #183 heading over to the megabay for B9 installation.  Check out that protective collar already on there.

Ignoring locations and numbers here is what B9 looks like based on what we have seen heading into the megabay!

UPDATE: Thanks to @BlakeWh59973300 for pointing out the mistake that I made, for some reason I miscounted the RB's.

Ship 25 is currently on the move. Road closure starts at 10 p.m., but the rollback could always start earlier.

Ship 25 is on the move from Masseys. There are cones at the launch site, so this could get interesting. Is Ship 25 the chosen one to fly with Booster 9 after all?

Nope. Not happy about something. Rolling back to Masseys.

Ship 25's rollout from the Massey test site appeared to be aborted, crews continued to work on prefabricating sections of the new high bay, and work on OLM repairs continued.

Ship 25's on the loose again! Aborted roll from Masseys to the suborbital launch site overnight, but on the move again, although the road closure isn't until tonight.

Potentially just testing the roll to check all is well ahead of the road closure.

Ship 25's clearly on Twitter as it stopped rolling soon after. 😅

So I would assume it's parked near the entry to Highway 4 and will wait until the cops turn up tonight.

 The road is beyond belief bad between there and the facility. I'm not there now, but I have to wonder if someone who tried to drive that stretch formally objected to the move.

Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who couldn't hear the music.

I've seen that stretch of road and how bad it is from other posts.  I'll assume that Elon will eventually fork over money to improve the road as he did for the stretch to the pad from the vehicle assembly area.
It's Tony De La Rosa, ...I don't create this stuff, I just report it.

Not exactly orbital velocity, but making good speed towards the launch site.
