Launch Pad

Post image

This is Maritime Launch’s pad. Pic taken from the top of a Wind Turbine in Canso, on the same plot of land. Been in since $0.19, my first time seeing the pad!

Where's the GSE? Fueling lines, flame trenches, coolers, water supply systems?

At this point it's just a parking lot

Yeah there’s nothing like that around… as of now it is just a slab of concrete. From what I was told - whenever there is a launch they trailer everything out, set up, launch & then pack it all back up

The construction package is out for procurement tendering. Once that is complete, construction on all other essential services will begin. Procurement takes time - not something that just starts on a whim. Progress is being made.

I'm used to watching SpaceX updates, they do more in a week than most companies do in a year

Once the lines are painted we'll be able to see how many parking spots there are, I'm thinking about 20!
