FTS (Flight Termination System) explosives were delivered today and work was being performed on Booster 9's FTS at the same time. Definitely signs that a launch is near. 🚀

The fast boat that SpaceX appeared to charter during IFT-1 for offshore operations (the multiple Starlink dishes were a leading clue...) has returned to the Starbase area. IFT-2 soon....

Ship 25 received its livery and final tiles ahead of flight, one of the mystery rings was rolled out of the Sanchez site, and crews were spotted working on Booster 9's FTS.

This is exciting! Cones have been deployed! Must note, though, that it IS Labor Day...and there is NO current road closure notice...but at some point, obviously SpaceX are expecting to transport something large either to or from the LC.

Thanks to #AgentJ, we can also see cones deployed both sides of the ship yard, so it does *look like* these might be for S25...

Hey Ship 25, your taxi has arrived.

Rollout could be later today, ahead of full stack (likely Tuesday).
