Though most eyes are on Starbase, there's quite a bit happening in Florida:

• Rebar installation currently under way for Gigabay foundations at Roberts Road.
• Launch tower manufacturing facilities set up to produce two towers in parallel.
• LC-39A: Flame trench and tank farm under construction. Launch mount for this pad is currently at the water-cooled steel deck plate installation phase.
• SLC-37: Old Delta IV infrastructure demolished, construction of new infrastructure (up to two launch towers and two catch towers) contingent on Environmental Impact Statement.

MTG (Meteosat Third Generation) is the follow-up system to the Meteosat MSG series of geostationary satellites.

The satellite system will consist of a twin configuration of 3-axis-stabilised satellites: the Imaging mission satellite (MTG-I) and the Sounding mission satellite (MTG-S).

The payload proposed for MTG-S would have an Infrared Sounder (IRS) and Ultra-violet Visible Near-infrared (UVN) Sounder, the later of which is included as the Sentinel-4 mission

The Sentinel-4 mission focuses on monitoring trace gas concentrations and aerosols in the atmosphere to support operational services covering air-quality near-real-time applications, air-quality protocol monitoring, and climate protocol monitoring. The specific objective of Sentinel-4 is to support this with a high revisit time over Europe.

The Sentinel-4/UVN instrument is a high-resolution spectrometer system operating with 3 designated bands in the solar reflectance spectrum, covering the ultraviolet (305-400 nm), visible (400-500 nm), and near-infrared (750-775 nm) bands. The central Sentinel-4/UVN instrument parameters are a spatial sampling of 8 km over Europe and a fast repeat cycle over Europe and North Africa (Sahara) of 60 minutes.

The respective spectral resolution is 0.5 nm in the ultraviolet and visible bands, with the goal of 0.12 nm in near-infrared.

With the sudden loss of a ship that was nearly ready for flight and significant damage to the infrastructure needed to test Starship and Super Heavy, SpaceX will face some difficult challenges in the coming months. Ship 37 recently began receiving its engines last week, but without a way to static fire them, it will remain in Mega Bay 2 until repairs can be made. Ship 38 is in Mega Bay 2 and currently needs cryogenic proof testing before getting engines. It is unclear if the ship’s cryogenic proof stand is still operational at Massey’s following Ship 36’s anomaly.

Furthermore, SpaceX is in the process of developing and constructing the first Block 3 (Version 3) variants of Starship, with Ship 39 expected to serve as the first. With Block 3 so close and the recent anomaly, SpaceX would repair Starship testing infrastructure at Massey’s, such as the quick disconnect, for two ships before having to modify it again for Block 3. The question for SpaceX is whether it is worthwhile to repair the existing infrastructure for the current ship design or to move directly to Block 3.

As for Super Heavy, SpaceX has Booster 16 ready to fly and recently removed the hot stage ring, as it will no longer be flying soon. Booster 15 is ready and waiting for its next flight, which is likely to be the last flight of a Block 2 Booster. At this point, Booster 17 will likely not fly, as SpaceX has only two Block 2 ships left.
