SPACEX HAS BUILT THE MACHINE TO BUILD THE MACHINE. BUT WHAT ABOUT THE MACHINE?
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
SpaceX opened its massive Starfactory facility earlier this year. Measuring at about a million square feet, Starfactory is two times as large as SpaceX's main Falcon 9 factory in Hawthorne, California. SpaceX has now built the machine to build the machine, but its Starship rocket is still not yet ready for prime time. Starship's consecutive failures this year were a major setback for the program. The vehicle's tenth test flight is scheduled to take place no earlier than August 24.
