The NASASpaceflight McGregor Live cameras noticed an "observation" today, as what looked like part of a tank was launched into the air leaving behind a large cloud of gas. As with most of these tests we do not know if this was intentional test or not.

The Starlink team and TMobile have also enabled basic texting (SMS) through our Direct to Cell satellites for TMo customers in the areas impacted by flooding in Texas. This includes Kerr County, Kendall County, Llano County, Travis County and Comal County.
Additionally, anyone in the impacted areas with a compatible smartphone will be able to receive emergency alerts from public safety authorities.

WOW! An absolutely MASSIVE transfer tube has rolled out of the Starfactory. This is the first time we have seen this component for the V3 booster.
The amount of changes on the V3 booster is insane. Its is a completely different vehicle with very little resemblance to its predecessor.

Installing the redesigned fuel transfer tube into the first next generation Super Heavy booster.
Roughly the same size as the first stage of a Falcon 9 rocket, the new transfer tube is responsible for channeling cryogenic fuel from Super Heavy's main tank to its 33 Raptor engines and will enable faster, more reliable flip maneuvers and the ability for simultaneous engine startup

Crew-11 Update from NASA & SpaceX:
Crew Dragon Endeavour will be flying the Drogue Parachute upgrade, which strengthens the crown of the parachute. Its packaging has changed too. This new design first flew on the cargo resupply CRS-32.
Endeavour also features a new composite heatshield, which improves the capability of the structure.
Endeavour will be transported tomorrow night from HangarX2 to the fuelling facility. Fuelling operations are expected to begin the weekend after next.
Crew-11 will be Endeavour's sixth flight, solidifying its position as the Dragon fleet leader. It first flew Demo-2, and most recently flew Crew-8.
The Booster supporting this mission, B1094, is in good shape ahead of launch. It previously supported Axiom Space's Ax-4 (which is still in space), and Starlink Group 12-10. Crew-11 will be its third flight.
The second stage is waiting at the cape, and has passed its pre-flight testing at the McGregor test facility
The pad, LC-39A, is also in good shape. SpaceX is not working any major issues.
The earliest Crew-10 return date is currently around the August 5th timeframe. Crew-10 will be the first Commercial Crew mission to land in the Pacific.
