Prepping for the 15km hop!

Thanks Tim, Greetings from Luna! See to tomorrow hopefully after the launch, Stay well, Ted Moon

Hey Tim, during the live shot, when you guys were on patio there's a large, round device mounted on a tripod. I'm just curious what it was? I'm guessing it's some sort wireless networking unit but I don't recognize it. If it is a wireless device what are you guys connecting to! How far away? I'm a system admin / networking pro based in Tampa. Thanks for the info and all the great content you provide.

Not going off today

Could be my old brain, but do you have an email address for PayPal, Friends and Family you some cash from time to time, I haven't figured out how to do super chatting or at least it may be broken

Boys have to have their new toys, specially with tech getting better every day, woohoo o 15 K hop.

Wow! This will even be a burden for the Cybertruck to carry!

When do you think you will live stream. Wednesday?

So I became a Patron tonight. A Pilot. So how do I get access to the Discord channel? I have pressed the connect button but nothing happens in Discord. The channel doesn't show up to the left. Should say I'm not used to Discord.

Thanks for being there and documenting all of this. I'm stuck in rainy UK and wish I could join.

All is needed now is a van with a Starlink antenna on top!

Gary Guttebo

looks great!

How is Tuesday - Thursday looking?

You rock-it. Stay strong, safe, and excited!!

Looks more like the "Everyday Astronaut Mobile Command Post". I think they launched the Redstone with less equipment.

Thanks Tim for the awesome Q&A greetings from Austria

Maybe ridiculous but thanks.

Could you do a breakdown of the equipment you use and what you use it for?

Andy M

You gotta take all because you never know what you might need. Just be thankful that the gear is mostly smaller and lighter than it used to be.

David Mason

That's some really interesting gear and I can't help but wonder if you can make do with less. At this this rate you'll be rolling up in a semi next year.

Tommy Thorn

I am excited!

CaverEric

Just a question methinks........

Just Curious.... I’ve driven by the spot of your last broadcast any times. How does your in person view compare to photos. Flyovers? Different methinks. Please comment.

Nice setup! Remember to add delay to the audio output if you are using any HDMI<->SDI-converteres on the inputs, each converter will add about 1 frame of delay.

Some Christmas lights would be nice too!

You forgot the Partridge in the Pear Tree

Looks perfectly norminal! (:

Damn dude! You need an intern!! Make sure you bring your hard hats! 🤪 And the coffee pot!

Welcome to RGV!

You're such a prepper! The only thing you're missing is a bunker!

Matthew Reiter

Tim, thanks so much for your dedication to covering space launch activity so fully and professionally. I can't wait for your SN8 launch broadcast.

Reminds me of the years I traveled internationally ...

Thanks Tim & company for bringing the rest of us to Boca Chica.

I think you need more

Looks like one of the resorts on south padre.

Edward Dolezal

Fridge, coffee maker, microwave - you're all set! :-)

Rob A

Tim, thanks so much for all that you do for us. I LOVED your Raptor one hour presentation and this most recent rundown on the difference between Starship and Falcon9 just stokes the fires. Is your control room in the Boca Chica hotel? I've been passing on the url's to those i think may be interested. Who knows? They may even pony up a bit on Patreon.

Donald V. Beck

Model Y ?!? He needs one of these: https://www.transportmagazin.hr/system/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Croatel-OB-4K-web.jpg

Dragi Raos

Hi from Panama, where the Canal is...will you stream as soon as tomorrow?

Now Dad & I know "WHY" you need a Model Y!

Crossed my mind the same thing... It went even deeper I thought it was shrinked version of raptor 😁😁

I do not see Mc. Flatface? 🤔

Looks great! Would love an overview video of your setup!

That's not much gear at all for a live production! Looking forward to see your work!

Windows are 8am - 5pm Monday Tuesday and Wednesday, weather looks bad (25mph wind) Monday so hopefully Tuesday its a go!!!

remember to stay safe. Wear you orange flight suit with helmet and independent oxygen supply

Allen Lorenz

Is that a camera lens or a stand or something, front and center on the counter? Looks like a rocket nozzle! 😄

Ah is that Andrew! Good you guys on the coverage!!

Thanks Tim to you and your team for all that you do. Have a safe trip to Boca Chica!

Here's hoping for some hopping! Thanks for all you and your crew do.

But it's totally gonna be worth it! Thanks for all your hard work to get us the best stream guys..

Just hope we can all see it live and isn't at a time when we're either working or sleeping. Happy SN8 hop hunting!!!

Lol awesome!

Good luck gentlemen! Looking forward to it.

Good luck! Thank for everything you do for us!

Don't forget to stay hydrated with all of the caffeine consumption in your future ;]

Even taking your own nozzle extension, just in case, haha

Chris fromGermany whishes you the best of luck! It will be awesome

Glad you made it down safely. Now here is hoping for some good weather.

Dang.. You’ve built quite the kit there! Just missing a Starlink. Good luck and thanks for covering this historic event!

Tim, you need a Cybertruck to power all that equipment! Have a safe trip to Boca Chica. No matter how this turns out, it's going to be EPIC!!!

Bill & Robin Korb (QISC)

Same here 🇨🇭♥️🚀

Don't forget your thermos for your favorite hot beverage.

Julian1701

Need a legit camera crew! Love the dedication and hard work, guys!

Stephen W. Evans

Well done sir! Thanks for doing what you do!

Looking forward to your stream! So psyched for this!

That’s insane. You certainly deserve all the success you can get. Fun but hard work for sure.

Mission Control for the Everyday Astronaut!! I'll be watching from Switzerland and am very excited no matter the outcome.

Thomas Maufer

Go for it, love to watch this!

Thanks guys!!! 👍🏻

liesbeth

Was this all crammed into your Model 3?

Love it, Tim. I'm super excited!

Do you have an idea on the exact time it is suppose to happen?
