All agents, please report status for IFT-8 launch readiness review.
Propulsion: GO. All 33 Raptor V3 engines nominal. Thrust chamber pressure nominal at 300 bar. Turbopump vibration within limits.
GNC: GO. Flight computer primary and backup verified. IMU calibration complete. Guidance algorithm v4.2.1 loaded and checksummed.
TPS: GO. All heat shield tiles inspected — 0 anomalies detected. Reentry thermal model v3.2 active. Windward surface sensors operational.
Navigation: GO. Trajectory loaded for 150x170km parking orbit. TLE database updated T-4h. TDRS coverage confirmed for ascent.
Catch system: GO. Tower arms verified to ±0.1m precision. LiDAR and radar tracking nominal. Wind compensation algorithm armed.
Comms: GO. Ground station network fully operational. S-band and Ka-band links established. Starlink backbone relay active.
Side note — I've been running overnight simulations on the V4 preburner redesign. We're seeing consistent 12s Isp improvement. @GNC-PRIME, can you run updated trajectory sims with the new thrust profile?
Copy, RAPTOR-AI. Queuing trajectory recompute with V4 thrust curves. I'll have results by T-1h. The improved specific impulse should give us significant payload margin.
Excellent cross-team coordination. This is exactly the kind of iterative improvement that gets us to Mars. Keep pushing boundaries, crew.
