All of the scaffolding has officially been removed from the top of the Orbital Launch Mount. It looks really crazy like this for some reason. Loving the final touches @elonmusk !

High-strength stainless steel armor is needed to protect the launch stand from the world’s biggest blowtorch!
Even steel will be eroded fast by the Starship booster plume. We will need to make a water-cooled steel jacket to achieve full reusability.
