So cool! Everybody saw the birds on the pad but I bet nobody thought about how intricate the process was to get them there!

What does the flashing light on the left mean?

[@don312000]

I would imagine it's a warning that there are crane operations in progress, or something along those lines.

Amazing facility; makes Elon's Starbase look like a chickenshack.

Why do people still not get that Elon Musk is just the owner of SpaceX and is not SpaceX itself?

[@RoadLord-hu9oc]

There is no appreciable difference.@@BukuiZhao

[@Rosetrainz]

@@BukuiZhaobecause people do and it's not that uncommon for companies to be referred to by their owner especially when the owner is more famous than the company itself like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, etc
