Gigafactory Texas! This is where Model Y’s, and Cyber Truck production happens and soon, the Next Generation Car!
Today was a very busy day for me as I not only did my normal Drone flight over Giga Texas, but I also visited the Neuralink Campus and then went to the growing Bastrop, Texas site of the Boring Company, the Boring Bodega and Hyperloop Plaza, the expanding SpaceX Starlink facility and the new X building and Headquarters.
To cap off this busy day, I then attended the grand opening of Aalo Atomics in Austin. This is an innovative new company with ambitions to mass produce micro and modular nuclear power plants that could be used reliably and safely at many locations around the world, starting right here in Texas.
In the video introduction, I discuss the progress at the electrical switchyard with the slab and catch basin for the third large transformer. In addition, we are able to see active drilling just to the north of this new slab and this is preparing for new footings to support more steel assemblies that will connect the transformer to the rest of the installed switchyard components.
I also give an update on the recovery efforts of Booster 11 from Starships 4th flight test at Starbase … SpaceX has recovered a significant part of the engine section of the booster for additional analysis of what happened during the splashdown and also, how to improve future boosters as they move into the catch testing with the tower chopsticks.

Because of my long day at multiple locations around Austin today, the video was very late in being produced and released, but that doesn’t mean there wasn’t a lot of new developments at Giga Texas today.
Because of the long day and the need to get this video completed and released before the end of the day, this is an abbreviated video description, however I do a lot of narration in the video itself, so make sure you check out the full length of the video!
Thank you for watching and I hope this has been informative, educational, and entertaining for you. If you would like, please consider supporting me via Patreon (link is in the description of this video and in the video itself) so I can continue to make and share these incredible videos.
