Booster 19
[edit]B19 began stacking on November 27, 2025, with it being fully stacked on December 24.[1] Booster 19 rolled to Massey's for cryogenic testing on February 1, 2025.[2] This testing occurred shortly after arriving at Massey's where it completed an ambient gas pressure testing followed by a partial cryo and three full cryo.[3] The booster returned to Mega Bay 1 on February 9.[4] It rolled to launch site on the 8th of March 2026[5] for engine testing. It was lifted hours after and only had 10 engines[6]. It conducted a tanking test followed by DSS and deluge activation on the 10th of March[7], and conducted another tanking test with DSS activation, followed by a potential Spin Prime test on the 12th. It was lifted off the OLM for inspections, lifted on the 14th, and conducted an ignitor test on the 15th[8] and conducted a 10 engine Static Fire on the 16th[9]. It was a

This is the first time we have seen an igniter test performed with propellant loaded onto the vehicle. Usually these are done hours before testing. The audio from this is awesome @LabPadre". X.com.
