With Booster 4 and Ship 20 reunited at the launch site, both vehicles will undergo proof testing and Static Fire tests before becoming an integrated stack for the second time

These objectives will be carried out amid continued work at the Orbital Launch Site (OLS), which is being prepared for Booster 4/Ship 20’s flight and future missions that will include using the “Mechazilla” system

Ahead of Booster 4’s return to the Orbital Launch Site (OLS), and likely to continue for the coming weeks, preparations to complete and prepare Mechazilla hardware have progressed in-situ next to the Launch Tower

Booster 4 likewise joined Ship 20 at the launch site when it rolled out of the High Bay on Tuesday before taking up residence near the OLS Launch Tower

Sporting all 29 of its Raptors, this was Booster 4’s second trip to the launch site, the first marking the historic milestone of conducting fit checks as an integrated stack with Ship 20

On Wednesday, Booster 4 was lifted onto the Orbital Launch Mount (OLM)

“Booster static fire on orbital launch mount hopefully next week,” noted Musk on Twitter, again with an ambitious timeline but with the important confirmation that Booster 4 is now a resident of the OLM for testing
