SpaceX looks to the Future, while preparing for the Orbital Test Flight

Even though SpaceX is focusing on the Starship Orbital Test Flight, they are also preparing for future flights.

While Booster 4 and Ship 20 are at the launch site, Booster 5 and Ship 21 are under construction at the production site. Booster 5 is about 50% complete in High Bay and Ship 21 will start stacking soon in Mid Bay.

Booster 5 will be caught by the Mechazilla system. The catch arms will be installed on the launch tower soon. Booster 4 was removed from the OLP to allow room for this.
