Starship V3 Production Deep Dive + New HLS Details | Starbase Update

SpaceX’s push to Starship version 3 is accelerating. Ship 39 is now past the halfway mark, Pad 2 is buzzing with QD motion tests and purge activity, Pad 1 demolition reveals the OLM interior, and on Florida’s LC-39A the LR13000 is gearing up for the new launch mount. Plus, SpaceX quietly dropped a big HLS (Human Landing System) progress update—49 milestones complete, from docking adapter qualification and DragonEye navigation testing to full-scale landing leg drop tests, MMOD stackups, a power module for the propellant depot, and a flight-article HLS cabin now in fabrication.

We also break down Raptor 3 action at McGregor: long burns, record relights, and higher serial numbers rolling out—signs that V3 engines are lining up. All of that, plus Starfactory nosecone activity for Ships 40–42, Sanchez stand conversions for V3 boosters, and why the new transfer tube jig matters for Ship 39’s plumbing.
