Camping at Boca Chica Beach for Starship Flight 11 Launch

Nice camp spot, looks like you were alone on the beach!

Which tent setup is that your using?

It’s our Pano tent


A lot of people skipped this time because SpaceX wasn’t catching the booster, but I think next time many more people will be camping there. Here’s a pic of some Cybertruck owners with our Gen 1 rack at Flight 7.

Would like to overnight there too, awesome pictures. Are there shower/toilet facilities nearby? Or bring a portable toilet? I need to be prepared.

Do it! Nope, unfortunately. We’ve seen a lot of people bring their privacy tents and a portable toilet

That's what I wanted to do but didn't have my rack / tent set up so instead I hung out at Raptor Roost...

We watched the launch from a small boat. It was insanely loud! We could hear it only until Starship was way up in the air, almost 15 seconds later. Sound is a bit slow. Next time, we’ll definitely bring a 500mm lens.

Is there a flight schedule? I’d love to do this!

Very cool. If My work schedule allows, I'll be heading down to Starbase to watch the flight 12 in my CB
Hope to see y'all there

There are many places that have listings of future space launches like https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/schedule/ but with SpaceX's Starship development program one needs to keep closer track. Youtube @NASASpaceflight @ellieinspace @scottmanley and many more talk about upcoming Starship tests. NASASpaceflight also has a top notch space flight forum and information site at https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php It covers all of space flight, and has been around since the Space Shuttle era.
