With 39A becoming a primarily Falcon Heavy and Starship pad, we donโt actually need two operational droneships on the east coast to maintain our Falcon manifest. Think of pads/drone ships like airplane runways where you need a landing runway for each takeoff runway (ideally they are the same runway I.e. starship). ASOG can support 4 day launch cycle time with RTLS missions in parallel. This is exactly how we operate on the west coast!
JRTI will join the โyouโll thank me laterโ ship to support Starship and SupeHeavy transport from Starbase to the Cape. We have a plan for any double down range Falcon Heavy missions ๐๐๐

What about Bob and Doug? Send one of them to the West Coast?
