This part of the tour shows what Starbase\u2019s orbital launch pad area looks like the day before teams stacked the orbital mount table.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-17256\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dodd\u2019s third part took place at SpaceX\u2019s orbital launch site. Dodd and Musk rode from the build site to the launch pad in a Model Y, fully on Tesla\u2019s Full Self Driving of course. Once there, Musk was instantly met by Same Petel, SpaceX\u2019s Senor Director of Starship Operations who gave his boss an overview of how things were going. This part was less an interview and more a short look at what it\u2019s like working with Musk.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remember, this was filmed on July 30th, before even the orbital mount plate was installed. At this point, we didn\u2019t fully understand what SpaceX was pushing toward this week. That being said, the SpaceX team knew exactly what they were pushing towards. A SpaceX employee embraced Musk saying \u201cWe will make it\u201d, referring to fully stacking Starship 20 and Booster 4, a true testament to how invested SpaceX employees are in this project.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-elon-musk-s-reason-for-starbase-s-urgent-development\">Elon Musk\u2019s reason for Starbase\u2019s urgent development<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tour moved to the top of Starbase\u2019s orbital launch mount, the pillars sticking up on the pad, to discuss the rapid progress SpaceX has made. Musk mentioned that because we had a lull of almost a decade with crewed launch capability in the US, we need a sharp curve in progress now. \u201cI tell the crane operators what would you do if there\u2019s an asteroid heading to this planet in 8 days,\u201d said Patel about why there seems to be an urgency to get Starship built and launched. Musk followed with \u201cIf we move with extreme urgency then we have a chance of making life multi-planetary, still just a chance, not for sure\u201d. This shows the mindset not just Musk but the entire SpaceX team has when developing Starship.<\/p>\n<p>\t<span class=\"outbrain-ad-label\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\t\t<script type=\"text\/plain\">\n\t\t\twindow.adSlotsConfig = window.adSlotsConfig || [];<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\tadSlotsConfig.push( {\n\t\t\t\tslotID: '\/1049447\/Outbrain',\n\t\t\t\tslotName: 'div-gpt-ad-outbrain-ad-17256',\n\t\t\t\tsizes: [300, 250],\n\t\t\t\tslotPosition: 'mid_article'\n\t\t\t} );\n\t\t<\/script><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed alignwide is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"post-youtube-video-1\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9Zlnbs-NBUI?version=3&amp;rel=0&amp;showsearch=0&amp;showinfo=1&amp;iv_load_policy=1&amp;fs=1&amp;hl=en-US&amp;autohide=2&amp;wmode=transparent&amp;enablejsapi=1\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9Zlnbs-NBUI?version=3&amp;rel=0&amp;showsearch=0&amp;showinfo=1&amp;iv_load_policy=1&amp;fs=1&amp;hl=en-US&amp;autohide=2&amp;wmode=transparent&amp;enablejsapi=1\" title=\"Starbase Launchpad Tour with Elon Musk [PART 3 \/\/ Summer 2021]\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This by far was the most interesting part of the Dodd\u2019s series, while it was the shortest.
