Very early, but Booster 9 is on the move! It will likely wait at the Sanchez gate until the closure starts.

Booster 9 is ready to roll at Starbase - perhaps all the way to the launch site for its upcoming Static Fire testing. NSF will go live as soon as it moves onto Highway 4.

Transport closure opens at 6:30AM CDT (11:30 UTC) and lasts for 2.5 hours.
